The EPCS16SI8N is a 16Mbit serial configuration memory device produced by Intel, designed for storing configuration data for SRAM-based FPGAs during power-up. It features an 8-pin SOIC package and supports the Active Serial (AS) x1 configuration scheme. The EPCS16SI8N operates within a voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V and is designed to function within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This device offers low current during the configuration process and nearly zero standby mode current, making it energy-efficient. It also supports in-system programming (ISP) with USB-Blaster, EthernetBlaster, or ByteBlaster II download cables and provides write protection for memory regions using status register bits.
Features of EPCS16SI8N
