AT25160B in 25LCxx / AT25 SPI EEPROM Family
The AT25160B is a high-performance, 16-Kbit serial Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It utilizes the industry-standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) to provide high-speed data transfers for embedded systems. Operating at voltages as low as 1.8V, it is designed for low-power applications requiring reliable non-volatile storage. This family is a staple in industrial and consumer electronics for storing configuration data, calibration constants, and small firmware images where byte-level flexibility is essential.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the AT25160B family primarily differ in their package types, temperature grades, and operational voltage ratings. Common packages include 8-lead SOIC, TSSOP, and UDFN. Engineers can choose between industrial-grade components rated for -40C to +85C or extended temperature variants for automotive applications. Additionally, tape-and-reel options (denoted by -T) are available for high-volume automated assembly, while voltage-specific suffixes indicate optimization for 1.8V or 5V logic environments.
