M24C32-FMN6TP

Memory IC Overview

The M24C32-FMN6TP is a 32-Kbit serial I2C bus EEPROM organized as 4K x 8 bits. It operates with a supply voltage range of 1.7V to 5.5V over an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device supports I2C bus modes including 1 MHz (Fast Mode Plus), 400 kHz, and 100 kHz. Key electrical parameters include a maximum clock frequency of 1 MHz, a random access time of 450 ns, and a write cycle time of 5 ms for both byte and page writes. It features enhanced ESD/latch-up protection, more than 4 million write cycles, and data retention exceeding 200 years.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed I2C communication up to 1 MHz for efficient data transfer.
• Includes hardware write protection for the entire memory array to prevent unauthorized modifications.
• Offers extended reliability with over 4 million write cycles and 200-year data retention.
• Operates across a wide voltage range from 1.7V to 5.5V suitable for diverse power environments.

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial equipment requiring non-volatile storage for configuration parameters.
• Automotive electronics needing AEC-Q100 qualified components for system settings.
• Medical devices storing calibration coefficients and operational logs.
• Consumer appliances maintaining user preferences and device IDs.

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix MN6TP corresponds to the SOIC-8 package and tape-and-reel or cut-tape availability as per manufacturer distribution channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and ECOPACK2 packaging details directly with STMicroelectronics or authorized distributors. Ensure the ordering code matches the required voltage range specifications for your application design.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-voltage operation down to 1.7V is required alongside standard 5V compatibility. The M24C32-F variant is distinct from the M24C32-R (1.8V min) and M24C32-W (2.5V min). Choose this part for applications demanding high-speed 1 MHz I2C interfaces and robust endurance in harsh thermal environments ranging from -40°C to +85°C.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the M24C32-F series of serial EEPROMs from STMicroelectronics. It is designed for applications requiring reliable non-volatile memory with fast access times. The series offers various package options including SOIC, TSSOP, and UFDFPN, all featuring ECOPACK2 environmental compliance. It serves as a drop-in replacement for previous generations with improved performance metrics.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other M24C32 variants such as M24C32-RMN6TP or M24C32-WMN6P, provided the voltage requirements align. Cross-manufacturer equivalents like Microchip 24LC32A are pin-compatible but may differ in voltage ranges and speed characteristics. Verify package dimensions and electrical tolerances before substitution.
