24C00T-E/SN

Memory IC Overview

The Microchip Technology 24C00T-E/SN is a non-volatile EEPROM memory integrated circuit with a storage capacity of 128 bits, organized as 16 x 8. It utilizes an I2C (2-Wire) serial interface supporting clock frequencies up to 400 kHz. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and features a typical access time of 900 ns. It is housed in an 8-SOIC surface-mount package and is rated for industrial operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed I2C communication with a maximum clock frequency of 400 kHz
• Provides reliable non-volatile data retention with a specified lifespan of 200 years
• Operates on a standard 5V supply voltage range suitable for general digital logic systems

Memory IC Applications

• Configuration storage in embedded control systems
• Calibration data retention for sensor modules
• Device identification and parameter logging in industrial equipment

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'E' indicates extended temperature or commercial grade variants per the manufacturer's datasheet. Confirm the 'SN' package designation matches the required 8-SOIC footprint. Ensure the 4.5V minimum supply voltage aligns with the target system's power rails before integration.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a small, low-cost memory solution is needed for storing minimal configuration data. The I2C interface simplifies PCB routing compared to parallel memories. Consider the 4.5V lower voltage limit if designing with lower voltage logic families, as other variants may offer wider input ranges.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the 24xx00 series of serial EEPROMs from Microchip Technology. These devices are designed for applications requiring small amounts of persistent storage. The series typically shares pinouts and command sets across different capacities, facilitating design scalability within the same product line.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the 24LC00T-I/SN for wider voltage operation or the 24AA00T-E/SN for alternative speed grades. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 8-SOIC package and I2C compatibility.
