MX35LF2GE4AD-Z4I NAND Flash from Macronix: A Reliable Choice for Industrial Controller PLC Applications

In industrial automation, programmable logic controllers (PLCs) serve as the "industrial brain," handling critical tasks such as production line logic control, equipment status monitoring, and data exchange. Storage chips act as the "memory center," with their stability, reliability, and response speed directly determining the operational efficiency and security of the entire industrial control system. Facing harsh working environments—such as high and low temperatures, electromagnetic interference, and vibration—as well as core requirements like 24/7 uninterrupted operation and zero data loss, industrial PLCs demand storage devices that offer wide-temperature adaptability, anti-interference capabilities, high reliability with over 10 years of data retention and error correction, high read/write endurance capable of withstanding tens of thousands of cycles, low power consumption for distributed deployment and embedded MCUs, and compatibility with general-purpose SPI interfaces. The Macronix MX35LF2GE4AD-Z4I 2Gb Serial NAND Flash, with its industrial-grade features and flexible adaptability, has become the ideal choice for storage solutions in industrial controller PLCs, providing robust storage support for industrial automation scenarios.

The MX35LF2GE4AD-Z4I Serial NAND Flash is designed with high compatibility, high performance, high reliability, and flexible configuration as its core features. It offers a 2Gb capacity, supports x1/x2/x4 multi-mode random and continuous read operations, and delivers typical page/block erase times of 360μs/4ms. The x4 bus mode further enhances data transfer efficiency. Operating within an industrial-wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, it includes built-in 8-bit ECC error correction and guarantees a 10-year data retention period, ensuring long-term stability. Compatible with the SPI NOR protocol and supporting interface mode switching, it adapts to various SoCs and MCUs. Housed in an 8-WSON (8x6mm) package, it features a maximum standby current of 110μA and a maximum operating current of 40mA. Built-in Bad Block Management (BBM) enables automatic bad block replacement, while features like OTP configuration, secure OTP storage, and block protection through rich registers and command sets reduce software management complexity and meet personalized usage needs.
