Microchip Technology AT24C02A-10PI-2.7 EEPROM

The AT24C02A-10PI-2.7 from Microchip Technology is a high-performance, 2-Kbit Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) device that is designed to provide a flexible and reliable non-volatile data storage solution for a wide array of applications. This EEPROM operates on a power supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, making it suitable for various low-power and standard devices.

The device is organized as 256 x 8 bits, which allows for a total storage capacity of 2 Kbits. It supports a standard I²C-compatible (2-wire) serial interface, enabling simple integration into existing systems with a data transfer rate of 100kHz (1MHz for high-speed mode), which makes it ideal for serial data communication.

The AT24C02A-10PI-2.7 is available in a PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package) and is specified for operation across the industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). This robust temperature range ensures reliable operation even in harsh environmental conditions. The EEPROM has a write cycle time of 5 ms (typical), which allows for fast data storage, and it supports a write endurance of one million write cycles with a data retention of over 100 years, ensuring the longevity and durability of the data stored.

With its low-power consumption and small form factor, the AT24C02A-10PI-2.7 is an excellent choice for a multitude of applications that require dependable and persistent memory storage. These applications include, but are not limited to, personal electronics, wireless devices, medical instruments, and industrial control systems.

Microchip Technology has a reputation for providing high-quality semiconductor products, and the AT24C02A-10PI-2.7 EEPROM is no exception. It offers designers and engineers a reliable, cost-effective solution for their data storage needs, backed by Microchip's commitment to quality.
