FT24C08A-EDR-B

Overview

The FT24C08A-EDR-B is an 8-kbit serial EEPROM manufactured by Fremont Micro Devices Ltd, organized as 1024 words of 8 bits. It utilizes a standard two-wire I²C interface for data transfer, supporting clock frequencies up to 1 MHz at 5V and 400 kHz at lower voltages. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V and features a write cycle time of 5ms maximum. It is housed in an 8-MSOP package with industrial temperature ratings from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports partial page write operations within the 16-byte page structure
• Includes hardware write protection via dedicated pin for data security
• Features internally organized memory with automatic erase-before-write capability

Applications

• Low power consumer electronics requiring non-volatile storage
• Industrial systems operating within extended temperature ranges
• Data logging applications needing frequent byte-level updates

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'B' against official Fremont Micro Devices documentation to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-MSOP configuration. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status through current manufacturer declarations before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 8-MSOP footprint is required for 8-kbit EEPROM capacity. It is suitable for designs demanding low standby current and wide voltage operation. Consider the 400 kHz speed limit at 1.8V if using lower supply voltages. Verify that the hardware write protect pin aligns with system safety requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the FT24C08A series, which includes variants like FT24C08A-UNR-T and FT24C08A-ENR-T. These devices share core electrical characteristics but differ in packaging and shipping formats. The series is designed for CMOS low-power applications, offering high reliability and long data retention compared to older technologies.

Replacement Considerations

FT24C08A-UNR-T is listed as a parameter equivalent alternative.
