AT24C02C in 24LCxx / AT24Cxx I2C EEPROM Family
The AT24C02C is a member of the industry-standard AT24Cxx family of serial I2C EEPROMs developed by Microchip Technology. This 2-Kbit non-volatile memory device is organized as 256 words of 8 bits each, operating over a wide voltage range from 1.7V to 5.5V. Engineered for reliable data retention and endurance, the AT24C02C serves as a compact solution for storing configuration data, calibration constants, and user settings in space-constrained embedded systems.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants of the AT24C02C family primarily differ in their physical packaging, temperature grading, and shipping formats. Common packages include the 8-lead SOIC, TSSOP, and ultra-thin UDFN or VFBGA. Performance characteristics remain consistent across the sub-family, though specific suffixes denote Industrial-grade (-40C to +85C) or extended temperature ranges. Tape and reel versus tube packaging options are also reflected in the specific part number suffixes like -T or -B.
