24LC01BH-I/ST

Memory IC Overview

The Microchip Technology 24LC01BH-I/ST is a 1 Kbit Electrically Erasable PROM organized as one block of 128 x 8-bit memory. It operates on a single supply with a voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V and supports clock frequencies up to 400 kHz. The device features low-power CMOS technology with a maximum read current of 1 mA and standby current of 1 μA. It includes hardware write-protect for half the array, Schmitt trigger inputs, and output slope control.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports bidirectional 2-wire serial interface compatible with I2C protocols
• Includes hardware write-protect capability for half-array protection
• Features Schmitt trigger inputs for enhanced noise suppression
• Provides output slope control to eliminate ground bounce effects

Memory IC Applications

• Data storage in industrial embedded systems
• Configuration memory for microcontroller-based devices
• Parameter storage in automotive electronics operating within specified temperature ranges

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify that the component matches the exact part number 24LC01BH-I/ST, ensuring the suffix indicates Industrial temperature grade and SOIC package. Confirm RoHS compliance and Pb-free status as stated in the datasheet. Check pinout compatibility for 8-lead SOIC packages before integration into existing designs.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1 Kbit EEPROM with I2C interface is required for industrial applications. Ensure the system voltage remains above 2.5V for proper operation. Consider the page write size limitation and half-array write-protect feature when designing memory management software.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the 24AA01H/24LC01BH family of 1 Kbit serial EEPROMs. It shares functional similarities with the 24AA01H but differs in minimum operating voltage requirements. The 'I' suffix denotes Industrial temperature range availability, while the '/ST' indicates an 8-lead SOIC package type.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

The 24AA01H serves as a functional substitute with lower voltage support. Verify voltage level compatibility and temperature range requirements before substitution. Package differences may require PCB layout adjustments.
