24LC00T-I/OTG

Memory IC Overview

The Microchip Technology 24LC00T-I/OTG is a 128-bit (16 x 8) serial EEPROM featuring an I²C-compatible 2-wire interface. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V and supports clock frequencies up to 400 kHz. The device utilizes low-power CMOS technology with typical active current of 500 µA and standby current of 100 nA. It includes Schmitt trigger inputs for noise suppression and output slope control to eliminate ground bounce. The component offers over 1 million erase/write cycles, data retention exceeding 200 years, and ESD protection greater than 4000V.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Low-voltage operation down to 2.5V with minimal power consumption
• I²C compatible 2-wire serial interface supporting standard and fast modes
• High reliability with over 1 million write cycles and extended data retention
• Integrated noise protection via Schmitt triggers and ground bounce elimination

Memory IC Applications

• Storage of calibration values in electronic systems
• Retention of unique ID numbers for device identification
• Recording manufacturing information and configuration data

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type associated with the OTG suffix against official Microchip documentation, as it may differ from standard TSSOP or SOT-23 configurations. Confirm that the Industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) aligns with system requirements. Ensure compatibility with the host controller's I²C voltage levels and pull-up resistor requirements before integration.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a small amount of non-volatile memory is required for infrequent data updates. It is suitable for applications where low power consumption and high endurance are critical. Consider the 24AA00 variant if operation below 2.5V is necessary, or the 24C00 if higher voltage tolerance is needed. Verify that the available packages meet the board space constraints.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the 24XX00 family of serial EEPROMs, which includes the 24AA00, 24LC00, and 24C00 devices. These components share a common architecture and interface protocol but differ in operating voltage ranges and temperature specifications. The 24LC00 series is specifically designed for industrial applications requiring operation between 2.5V and 5.5V.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other members of the 24LC00 family such as 24LC00T-I/SN or 24LC00T-I/ST, provided the package footprint matches. Cross-family replacements like 24AA00 require verification of the lower voltage threshold compatibility.
