Question flash NOR

A NOR flash memory chip example: ST M29W640FT 706 H can retain all data for how many years stored at 35-36C temperature? (A maximum of 10 writes and erases were used on this chip)

Per datasheet, at least 20 years (over full temp range).

In practice, probably a lot longer, but since the calculation for lifetime is largely statistical, manufacturers tend to be conservative.

In proper antistatic containers?

A NOR flash memory chip example:

Have not checked all NOR flash. Is your example the only device you have?

You can get that information from the manufacturer, also they have a application engineer in your area that could help.

Hi, @aranbafdan88

Do you have a project in mind that needs answers to longevity of components?

Found this on EEVblog. Not sure what's going on.
