ON Semiconductor CAT24C04JI-RE10 EEPROM

The CAT24C04JI-RE10 is a high-performance EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) module from ON Semiconductor, renowned for its reliability and versatility. This particular model is part of the Serial EEPROM Series, which is designed for a wide range of applications requiring non-volatile memory storage.

With a storage capacity of 4 Kb (or 512 bytes), the CAT24C04JI-RE10 is well-suited for storing configurations, settings, and small amounts of data that must be preserved across power cycles. It utilizes the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) serial interface, which is a popular communication protocol for embedded systems due to its simplicity and efficiency. The I2C interface allows for easy integration into most microcontroller-based systems, making the CAT24C04JI-RE10 a flexible choice for designers.

The device operates over a wide voltage range, typically from 1.8V to 5.5V, which makes it compatible with both low-power and standard logic level systems. This feature is particularly beneficial for battery-operated devices where power consumption is a critical factor. Additionally, the CAT24C04JI-RE10 boasts a robust endurance of 1 million write cycles and a data retention period of 100 years, ensuring that data remains safe and intact over an extended period.

ON Semiconductor has packaged the CAT24C04JI-RE10 in an industry-standard 8-pin JEDEC SOIC package, which is suitable for surface-mount technology (SMT). The compact form factor of the device allows for a minimal footprint on printed circuit boards, which is essential for space-constrained applications.

Key features of the CAT24C04JI-RE10 include:

• 4 Kb (512 x 8) memory capacity
