How the assembly works

The structure of Non-Volatile Data Logger Storage Block follows standard reference-design practice. The bill of materials groups parts by role so substitutions stay within the right component family.

Selecting parts

Work outward from the core device. Confirm voltage and current headroom on each block, then verify the passives and protection against the assembly parameters listed above.

Sourcing the build

All blocks are available through our catalog, so the design ships as a single consolidated order. Volume pricing applies once quantities reach full-reel multiples on the passive blocks.

Build sequence

  1. Confirm the input source and grounding before powering the stage.
  2. Place and verify the flash / eeprom (SPI NOR flash, 128 Mb class).
  3. Place and verify the real-time clock (RTC with battery backup).
  4. Place and verify the host mcu interface (SPI / I2C from the controller).
  5. Place and verify the backup cell holder (Coin-cell holder for RTC).
  6. Place and verify the decoupling (100 nF per device).
  7. Power up into a light load, validate the key parameters, and only then apply full load.

Frequently asked questions

Do you provide a quote for the full bill of materials?
Send your target volume and we will return availability and volume pricing across every block in the assembly.
Are the listed specifications final?
They are representative starting values from standard reference-design practice. Confirm each against your load, environment, and the manufacturer datasheets before release.
Can I source the whole Non-Volatile Data Logger Storage Block from one supplier?
Yes. Every block maps to a stocked catalog category, so the assembly can be quoted and shipped as a single consolidated order.
What is Non-Volatile Data Logger Storage Block used for?
It is commonly used in field data loggers, energy meters, event recorders. Share your requirements and we can adapt the block selection.
