FT24C08A-ESG-T

Overview

The FT24C08A-ESG-T is an 8Kbit (1024 x 8) serial EEPROM manufactured by Fremont Micro Devices Ltd. It utilizes a standard 2-wire I2C interface with 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 supports page writes of 16 bytes with a maximum write cycle time of 5ms. It features hardware write protection, high ESD tolerance, and is available in an 8-lead DFN package suitable for industrial temperature ranges.

Feature Summary

• Supports standard 2-wire bi-directional serial interface compatible with I2C bus modes
• Includes hardware write protect pin for data security
• Features self-timed write cycles with automatic erase before write operation
• Provides enhanced ESD and latch-up protection

Applications

• Low voltage and low power electronic systems
• Industrial temperature range applications (-40°C to 85°C)
• Data storage requiring hardware write protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ESG' against official Fremont Micro Devices documentation to confirm package type and availability, as distributor listings may prioritize other variants like UNR or ENR. Ensure the selected component matches the required operating voltage and interface specifications for the target design.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring non-volatile memory with I2C connectivity and robust write protection. Consider the 1.8V to 5.5V operating range for compatibility with various logic levels. Verify package availability and lead times through authorized distributors, as specific suffixes may have limited stock.
