MR10Q010-EVAL1 MRAM Evaluation Board
The MR10Q010-EVAL1 MRAM evaluation board from Everspin is an acces-
sory board that is designed to work with the NUCLEO-L476RG MCU evalua-
tion board from ST Microelectronics.
The Evaluation Board
The MR10Q010-EVAL1 is populated with an Everspin 1Mbit Quad SPI
MRAM suitable for evaluating any of the following Everspin Ordering Part
Numbers:
Everspin OPN
MR10Q010SC
MR10Q010CSC
MR10Q010MB
MR10Q010CMB
Host Board Support
The MR10Q010-EVAL1 Quad SPI MRAM Evaluation board is designed to connect to the MORPHO connec-
tors on the NUCLEO-L476RG evaluation board from ST. The NUCLEO-L476RG uses an STM32L476RGT6 ARM
Cortex-M4 CPU that includes a flexible Quad SPI peripheral connected to the MORPHO connector pins.
The MR10Q010-EVAL1 board includes a high speed bi directional level translator (TXB0106PWR) in order to
shift the I/O level from 3.3V used by the STM32L476RGT6 to the 1.8V required by the MR10Q010. See Ap-
pendix A – MR10Q010-EVAL1 Schematic and Layout for more details.
