FT24C512A-ESR-T

Overview

The FT24C512A-ESR-T is a 512Kbit (64K x 8) EEPROM memory IC manufactured by Fremont Micro Devices Ltd. It features an I2C interface with a maximum clock frequency of 1 MHz and a write cycle time of 5 ms. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V and supports access times of approximately 900 ns. It is housed in an 8-SOP package with a width of 3.90 mm and functions across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

Feature Summary

• Non-volatile EEPROM storage architecture retaining data without power
• I2C serial interface supporting standard communication protocols
• Wide operating voltage compatibility from 1.8V to 5.5V
• Surface-mount 8-SOP packaging for compact integration

Applications

• Data logging systems requiring non-volatile storage
• Consumer electronics configuration memory
• Industrial control parameter retention
• Embedded system calibration data storage

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ESR' corresponds to the 8-SOP package and tape-and-reel delivery format. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements against project specifications. Ensure the I2C address configuration matches the target system design before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 512Kbit capacity is required with I2C connectivity. Consider the 1.8V to 5.5V operating range for versatile power supply designs. The 8-SOP package suits applications needing surface-mount assembly with moderate pin count constraints compared to larger packages.

Part Context

This part belongs to the FT24C series of serial EEPROMs from Fremont Micro Devices. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the FT24C128A and FT24C08A, differing primarily in storage density and package options. The series provides a scalable solution for non-volatile memory needs across various bit capacities.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 512Kbit I2C EEPROMs from different manufacturers if pinout and timing parameters align. Verify functional equivalence regarding write cycle times and voltage ranges. Cross-reference package dimensions to ensure mechanical compatibility during replacement.
