GT25C256-2UDLI-TR

Memory IC Overview

The GT25C256-2UDLI-TR is a CMOS serial EEPROM manufactured by Giantec Semiconductor, Inc. It features a memory density of 32768 bits organized as 4096 words by 8 bits. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65V to 5.5V and supports a maximum clock frequency of 1 MHz via a two-wire I2C-compatible interface. It utilizes an HVSON package with dimensions of 2 mm by 3 mm and contains 8 pins. Key reliability parameters include a minimum data retention of 100 years and endurance of 1,000,000 write/erase cycles.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports bidirectional data transfer using a standard two-wire serial interface compatible with the I2C protocol.
• Includes hardware write protection functionality accessible via a dedicated pin to prevent accidental data overwriting.
• Integrates power-on reset circuitry to ensure stable operation during power sequencing and transitions.

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring non-volatile data storage
• Consumer electronics utilizing low-power microcontrollers
• Automotive embedded applications compliant with industrial temperature ranges

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'UDLI' corresponds to the required HVSON-8 package variant and lead-free status. Confirm RoHS compliance documentation matches current regulatory standards for your region. Ensure the ordering code aligns with the manufacturer's latest revision history to avoid obsolete lot codes.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact footprint is critical due to its small 2x3 mm package. Choose this part for designs requiring wide voltage compatibility from 1.65V up to 5.5V. Consider this device for applications needing high endurance and long-term data retention in harsh environments.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the GT25C series of serial EEPROMs from Giantec Semiconductor. The series is designed for general-purpose non-volatile memory applications where space constraints and low power consumption are primary design drivers. It complements other variants in the family that offer different memory densities or package options.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with GT24C32-2UDLI-TR if lower capacity is acceptable. Verify pinout compatibility with GT25C128A-2ZLI-TR before substitution. Check datasheets for any differences in operating voltage ranges or package dimensions between potential substitutes.
