The 25LC080AT-E/MS is a high-performance 8 Kbit serial Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) device from the reputable Microchip Technology. It is designed to offer a reliable and flexible non-volatile memory storage solution for a wide range of applications, including industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics.
This EEPROM device operates on a standard serial interface, supporting the SPI protocol with clock frequencies up to 10 MHz. The 25LC080AT-E/MS is notable for its low-power consumption and wide voltage range, operating between 2.5V to 5.5V, making it suitable for battery-operated and low-power devices.
The device comes in an 8-lead MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package) that not only saves space but also ensures a compact footprint on the PCB. This packaging makes the 25LC080AT-E/MS an excellent choice for applications with limited board space, while still providing robust performance and reliability.
Some of the key features of the 25LC080AT-E/MS include:
- 8 Kbit (1 Kbyte) of memory: Ample space for storing configuration parameters, serial numbers, calibration data, and more.
- Page-Write Buffer: Allows writing of up to 16 bytes in a single operation, enhancing write operation efficiency.
- Self-timed Erase and Write Cycles: Including auto-erase before writing, simplifying the write interface.
- Write Protect Function: Protects the entire memory or specified blocks, preventing accidental data overwrites.
- High Reliability: Endurance of 1 million write cycles and data retention of over 200 years.
- Temperature Range: Operational from -40°C to +85°C, suitable for harsh environments.
The 25LC080AT-E/MS is designed for applications that require data to be stored and retrieved during operation without the risk of data loss upon power-off. Its robust design and reliability make it an ideal choice for critical data storage in embedded systems. Whether you're working on a small-scale project or a large industrial application, the 25LC080AT-E/MS offers the performance and durability you need.
