24C01C-I/MS

Memory IC Overview

The Microchip Technology 24C01C-I/MS is a 1-kbit Serial Electrically Erasable PROM memory organized as 128 x 8-bit. It features an I²C compatible serial interface with a maximum clock frequency of 400 kHz. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and draws a maximum active read current of 3 mA. It is housed in an MSOP-8 package and supports surface mount installation. The component ensures data retention for up to 200 years and functions reliably across an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed I²C communication with a maximum clock rate of 400 kHz
• Provides non-volatile storage with long-term data retention capabilities
• Operates on a standard 5V supply voltage range for compatibility

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring parameter storage
• Consumer electronics needing configuration data retention
• Automotive modules utilizing I²C interfaces

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' indicates industrial temperature rating and 'MS' denotes the MSOP-8 package. Confirm that the 4.5V minimum operating voltage aligns with your system design, as it differs from lower-voltage variants. Ensure ESD protection measures are implemented during handling due to humidity sensitivity classification.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part when a 1-kbit capacity is sufficient for small data sets. The MSOP-8 package is suitable for space-constrained printed circuit board layouts. Verify that the 4.5V to 5.5V operating range matches the target power supply, distinguishing it from 2.5V-compatible models like the 24LC series.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the 24C01C family of serial EEPROMs manufactured by Microchip Technology. These devices are designed for applications requiring reliable, low-power non-volatile memory with standard I²C connectivity. The family offers various package options and voltage ranges to suit different environmental and electrical requirements.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

The 24C01CT-E/MS is a verified substitute within the same package type. Check datasheets for exact electrical parameter matching before integration.
