Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '2GLI' against official Giantec documentation to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the ordering code matches the exact capacity and speed grade required for the design. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times before finalizing procurement plans.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a small, non-volatile memory solution is needed for storing calibration data or configuration settings. The I2C interface minimizes pin count, making it suitable for space-constrained designs. Verify that the system voltage falls within the 1.7V to 5.5V operating range and that the I2C bus speed requirements are met by the device specifications.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the GT24Cxx series of serial EEPROMs from Giantec Semiconductor. These devices are designed as drop-in replacements for industry-standard EEPROMs, offering similar functionality with enhanced performance characteristics. The series covers various capacities, providing scalable memory solutions for diverse embedded applications requiring reliable non-volatile storage.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Check for direct cross-reference parts such as the AT24C16 series from Microchip or the 24LC16 series from Microchip/Microchip subsidiaries. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters like access time and supply current before substitution. Confirm that any alternative part meets the same I2C protocol standards and voltage requirements.
