24FC02T-E/SN

Memory IC Overview

The Microchip Technology 24FC02T-E/SN is a 2-Kbit (256 x 8) serial EEPROM featuring an I²C interface. It supports clock frequencies up to 1 MHz across a supply voltage range of 1.7V to 5.5V. The device operates within an extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and utilizes an 8-lead SOIC package.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed 1 MHz I²C communication
• Operates on a single supply down to 1.7V
• Includes hardware write-protect capability via the WP pin
• Features Schmitt trigger inputs for noise suppression

Memory IC Applications

• Data acquisition systems requiring non-volatile storage
• Personal communications devices
• Industrial control applications with wide temperature requirements

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix 'E' confirms the extended temperature rating (-40°C to +125°C) and 'SN' specifies the 8-lead SOIC package. Confirm the 'T' suffix indicates tape and reel packaging if required by assembly equipment. Ensure the specific revision matches the datasheet DS20001709N.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part when 1 MHz bus speed is necessary, as opposed to the 400 kHz limit of the 24LC02B series. It is suitable for designs requiring operation below 2.5V, unlike the 24LC02B which requires a minimum of 2.5V. Verify that the 8-byte page write buffer meets the application's data throughput needs.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the 24XX02 family of 2-Kbit serial EEPROMs from Microchip Technology. It shares architectural similarities with the 24AA02 and 24LC02B but offers distinct electrical characteristics regarding voltage range and maximum clock frequency.
