FT24C04A-ETR-B

Overview

The FT24C04A-ETR-B is a 4K-bit (512 x 8) serial EEPROM manufactured by Fremont Micro Devices Ltd. It features an I²C-compatible two-wire interface with clock frequencies up to 1 MHz at 5V and 400 kHz at lower voltages. Operating within a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V, it supports industrial temperatures from -40°C to 85°C. The device includes hardware write protection via the WP pin, 16-byte page write capability, and high endurance ratings.

Feature Summary

• Supports standard two-wire bi-directional serial communication with Schmitt trigger inputs for noise immunity.
• Includes a dedicated Write Protect (WP) pin to prevent accidental programming of the memory array.
• Features self-timed internal erase and write cycles that automatically disable external inputs during operation.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring non-volatile data storage
• Consumer electronics utilizing low-power microcontrollers
• Automotive embedded applications operating in harsh environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type against the ordering suffix 'B', which indicates tube packaging. Confirm RoHS compliance status as required by your manufacturing standards. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation for the electronic component batch.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4K-bit capacity is sufficient for system requirements. Consider the 1.8V minimum supply voltage for compatibility with modern low-voltage logic families. Evaluate the 8-pin package options available within the series to match PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the FT24C04A/08A/16A series of serial EEPROMs. These devices utilize advanced CMOS technology to achieve low power consumption while maintaining high reliability. The series shares common electrical characteristics and interface protocols across different memory densities.
