Overview

The 24LC01BT-I/OT is a 1Kbit serial EEPROM organized as 128 x 8-bit bytes, designed for low-power non-volatile storage. It features a wide voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V and communicates over an I2C-compatible two-wire interface. This device is AEC-Q100 qualified, making it suitable for automotive and industrial environments requiring robust data retention.

Why Choose This Part

This EEPROM offers high reliability with more than 1 million erase/write cycles and over 200 years of data retention. Its SOT-23-5 package and low 1 uA standby current make it an excellent choice for battery-powered designs. The inclusion of Schmitt Trigger inputs and output slope control ensures robust performance in electrically noisy environments.

Applications

Configuration Storage
Ideal for storing calibration constants, board serial numbers, and user preference settings in space-constrained embedded systems.
Automotive Telematics
Utilizes AEC-Q100 qualification to store diagnostic trouble codes and odometer data in vehicle subsystems.
Industrial Sensor Calibration
Provides non-volatile storage for sensor offset and gain parameters with high endurance for periodic updates.
Peripheral ID
Acts as an identification chip for modular accessories, allowing a host MCU to recognize hardware versions and capabilities.

Getting Started

To interface with this device, connect the SCL and SDA lines to a microcontroller I2C peripheral with appropriate pull-up resistors. Ensure the VDD is within the 2.5V to 5.5V range and use a standard I2C library capable of 400 kHz operation. Hardware write protection can be implemented to prevent accidental data corruption during power cycles.
