FT24C16A-ESG-T

Overview

The FT24C16A-ESG-T is a 16Kbit (2K x 8) serial EEPROM manufactured by Fremont Micro Devices Ltd. It utilizes an I²C interface with a maximum clock frequency of 1 MHz and features an access time of 500 ns. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V and supports page write cycles of up to 5 ms. It is housed in an 8-SOP package (3.90mm width) and functions across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports standard two-wire bidirectional serial communication via I²C interface.
• Includes hardware write protection capability through dedicated pin control.
• Features self-timed write cycles for automatic erase-before-write operations.

Applications

• Data storage in low-voltage embedded systems
• Configuration memory for consumer electronics
• Parameter retention in industrial controllers

Procurement Notes
