24LC04T-I/SL100

Memory IC Overview

The 24LC04T-I/SL100 is a serial electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) device manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features a total capacity of 512 kilobits, organized as 64K words by 8 bits. The component operates on a single voltage supply ranging from 1.8V to 5.5V and supports the I2C (Two-Wire) serial interface. It is designed for industrial temperature ranges and includes hardware write protection capabilities.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed I2C serial communication with standard and fast mode compatibility
• Includes dedicated hardware write-protect pin to prevent accidental data modification
• Features self-timed write cycles with automatic end-of-write detection

Memory IC Applications

• Data logging in industrial monitoring systems
• Configuration storage for embedded controllers
• Calibration data retention in consumer electronics

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SL100' against official Microchip documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging specifications and quantity per reel. Ensure the operating voltage range aligns with system requirements. Confirm the industrial temperature grade matches environmental constraints before procurement.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a non-volatile memory solution with low power consumption and I2C interface compatibility is required. Consider the 512Kbit capacity limits for data volume needs. Verify that the package type and lead-free status meet assembly process requirements.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the 24LC04 series of EEPROMs, which are widely used for small-scale data storage. The series is characterized by its robustness, low power operation, and compatibility with various microcontroller platforms using standard two-wire protocols.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 512Kbit I2C EEPROMs from Microchip such as the 24LC04B series, provided pinout and electrical characteristics are verified. Cross-reference with equivalent parts from other manufacturers only if interface timing and voltage levels match exactly.
