Das MRAM 2 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine für Anwendungen, die Daten und Programme schnell mit einer kleinen Anzahl von Pins speichern und abrufen müssen. Diese Platine verfügt über die MR10Q010, 1 MB Quad Output High-Speed Serial SPI MRAM-Speicherlösung von Everspin Technologies. Es arbeitet sowohl im Standard-, Single-SPI- als auch im High-Speed-QUAD-SPI-Modus mit einer Taktrate von bis zu 104 MHz, bietet eine hohe Bandbreite (Lesen und Schreiben mit 52 MB/s), automatischen Datenschutz bei Stromausfall und eine Manipulationserkennungsfunktion, die mögliche Datenänderungen durch äußere Magnetfelder erkennt. Dieses Click Board™ kann sowohl als nichtflüchtiges Speichermedium als auch als temporäre RAM-Erweiterung zum Speichern von Daten in jeder eingebetteten Anwendung verwendet werden.
Das MRAM 2 Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The MRAM 2 Click Board™ Work?
The MRAM 2 Click Board™ is based on the MR10Q010, 1Mb Quad Output High-Speed Serial SPI MRAM memory solution from Everspin Technologies. The MR10Q010 is the ideal memory solution for applications that must store and retrieve data and programs quickly using a small number of pins, low power, and the space-saving 16-pin SOIC package. The four I/O's in Quad SPI mode allow very fast reads and writes, making it an attractive alternative to conventional parallel data bus interfaces in next-generation RAID controllers, server system logs, storage device buffers, and embedded system data and program memory.
The MRAM 2 Click Board™ includes an LDO regulator BH18PB1WHFVCT from Rohm Semiconductor to provide the 1.8 V supply voltage. The LDO cut power consumption by lowering its current consumption to approximately 2 μA when the application is operating in the standby state. During normal-current operation, it will automatically switch to high-speed operating mode. The output from the LDO regulator is providing a needed reference voltage for one side of the TXB0106, a 6bit bidirectional level shifting and voltage translator with automatic direction sensing, from Texas Instruments. The reference voltage for the other side of the level shifter is taken from the 3.3V pin from the mikroBUS™.
The MRAM 2 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard SPI serial interface that supports SPI Mode 0 and 3 and operates at clock rates up to 104 MHz. It also supports modes like Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) and Quad SPI organized as 131.072 words of 8 bits. Both read and write operations can occur randomly in memory with no delay between writes. The MR10Q010 uses Write Protect signal routed to the RST pin on the mikroBUS™ to prevent write operations to the Status Register, while HOLD signal routed to the INT pin on the mikroBUS™ is used to interrupts a memory operation for another task. When HOLD is low, the current operation is suspended.
The MRAM 2 Click Board™ is designed to be operated only with a 3.3V logic level. A proper logic voltage level conversion should be performed before the Click board™ is used with MCUs with different logic levels. More information about the MR10Q010 can be found in the attached datasheet. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library that contains easy to use functions and a usage example that can be used as a reference for the development.

Software Support
We provide a library for the MRAM 2 Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library covers all the necessary functions that enables the usage of the MRAM 2 Click Board™. It initializes and defines the SPI bus driver and drivers that offer a full functionality of the Click Board™ board. User has Read Status Register, Write Enable, Write Disable, Write Status Register, Read Data Bytes, Fast Read Data Bytes, Write Data Bytes, Enter Sleep Mode, Exit Sleep, Tamper Detect, Tamper Detect Exit and Read IDfunctions at his disposal.
Key Functions
void mram2_write ( uint32_t mem_adr, uint8_t *wr_data, uint8_t n_bytes );- The Write Data Bytes function allows data bytes to be written sequentially.void mram2_read ( uint32_t mem_adr, uint8_t *rd_data, uint8_t n_bytes );- The Read Data Bytes function allows data bytes to be continuously read starting at an initial address.void mram2_wren ( );- Function is used to enable write operation.
Example Description
The application is composed of three sections :
- System Initialization - Initializes SPI module, LOG structure, sets CS, RTS and INT pins as output.
- Application Initialization - Initalizes SPI driver and sets up the device.
- Application Task - This example shows capabilities of the MRAM 2 Click Board™ by writing "MikroE" into first 6 memory locations, and then reading it back.
void application_task ( )
{
mikrobus_logWrite( "Write enable!", _LOG_LINE );
mram2_wren( );
Delay_ms( 100 );
mikrobus_logWrite( "Writing : ", _LOG_TEXT );

Additional Notes and Information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click Board™, USB UART 2 Click Board™ or RS232 Click Board™ to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
MIKROSDK
The MRAM 2 Click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
