   Never mind Robert, I found the info using part of your link. I immediately   
   see a problem in that this FRAM is a sofisticated surface mount chip. All I   
   need is 1 logic level out. Also, I don't have experience in surface mount.   
   Do you know if this chip comes in a dip 14 or equiv package? Thanks.
