25LC160B in 25LCxx / AT25 SPI EEPROM Family
The 25LC160B by Microchip Technology is a high-performance 16-Kbit Serial Electrically Erasable PROM (EEPROM) organized as 2,048 x 8 bits. Utilizing the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus, it is designed for reliable non-volatile data storage in embedded systems requiring fast byte-level writes and low power consumption. This family is widely used for storing configuration constants, calibration data, and lookup tables where board space and power efficiency are critical requirements.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the 25LC160B sub-family primarily differ by operating temperature range and physical packaging options. Engineers can select between Industrial (-40C to +85C) and Extended (-40C to +125C) temperature grades. Package options include SOIC, MSOP, TSSOP, PDIP, and DFN. Some variants also offer specialized tape and reel orientations or enhanced Pb-free lead finishes to comply with specific assembly line requirements.
