### FRAM

Cypress is a well known manufacturer of FRAM. They acquired Ramtron International in 2012. With Infineon’s acquisition of Cypress we may soon see ‘FRAM by Infineon’.

[Ferroelectric RAM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferroelectric_RAM) ( **FRAM** , F-RAM or FeRAM) is a non-volatile random-access memory type that offers functionality similar to Flash memory.  
Compared to Flash memory FRAM has lower power usage, faster write performance and much greater read/write endurance, up to 10^14 cycles. Writing to memory happens as fast as reading and reading and writing can be done per byte (no need to erase a block of bytes first, before writing).

To give an impression of 10^14 cycles: if a value would be written to the exact same memory address 1000 times per second _(which in practice, for most use cases will never come near)_ that can be continuously repeated for 3179 years before the memory cells at that address will wear out!

FRAM is ideal for battery-powered (LoRaWAN) IoT devices when data needs to be frequently persisted to non-volatile storage (where it can survive deep-sleep and power cycles).  
_I2C FRAM (the models with I2C interface) is quite easy to add to existing setups/designs as it interfaces via I2C which can be shared with existing I2C components/sensors without requiring additional IO ports._
