AN309 discusses the key differences that need to be considered when migrating from FM25L512 to FM25V05.
FM25L512 is now obsolete and this application note explains how FM25V05 is a replacement for FM25L512.
Table 1. Compatibility Chart
Introduction
FM25V05, a 512-Kbit SPI F-RAM™, is a replacement
device for FM25L512, which is now obsolete. For most
designs, the FM25V05 device can be considered a
superset of the FM25L512. The two devices are identical
in terms of pinout and read/write functionality. This
application note discusses the key differences between
the two devices that need to be considered when
migrating from FM25L512 to FM25V05.
FM25L512 Feature or Spec
Yes[1]
Package
Drop-In Replacement or Not?
From a software point of view, the two devices are
identical. From a hardware point of view, the key
differences between the two devices are the FM25V05’s
package and higher standby current. The FM25V05 adds
many features like operation down to 2.0 V, sleep mode,
Device ID and higher speed capability.
Table 1 shows the compatibility chart of FM25L512 and
FM25V05. For a detailed comparison, see Table 3.

Critical Considerations
You should consider all the parameter differences mentioned in Table 3 during the migration to FM25V05. This section
discusses the critical differences. System designers should also review the datasheet when migrating to the new part.
Package Outline
The FM25V05 is offered in SOIC-8 package while the FM25L512 is offered in TDFN-8 package. But both the packages have
compatible footprint (5 mm x 6 mm). However this package difference should be considered while migrating.

Standby Current / Sleep Mode Current
FM25V05 has higher standby current of 150 µA compared to FM25L512. But FM25V05 offers an additional sleep mode which
can be used to reduce the standby/idle current. The sleep mode current is as low as 8 µA. Note that during wake-up from the
sleep mode, device needs a recovery time of 400 µs.
New Feature: Devi ce ID
The FM25V05 incorporates a 9-byte read only Device ID (7F7F7F7F7F7FC22300h) to identify the product uniquely. The
Device ID allows the host to determine the manufacturer, product density, and product revision. Software update is required
when you wish to use this feature in FM25V05.
Summary
AN309 discussed the differences between FM25L512 and FM25V05 that need to be considered during migration to the
FM25V05.
