MCHP24LC02B

Overview

The 24LC02B is a 2-Kbit I2C serial EEPROM designed for low-power non-volatile storage applications. It features a 256 x 8-bit memory organization and supports a wide operating voltage range from 2.5V to 5.5V. This component utilizes CMOS technology to achieve a low standby current of only 1 microamp.

Why Choose This Part

The device offers high reliability with over 1 million erase/write cycles and data retention exceeding 200 years. It includes Schmitt Trigger inputs for noise suppression and output slope control to minimize ground bounce, making it robust for noisy environments.

Applications

Getting Started

To interface with the 24LC02B, connect the SDA and SCL lines to a microcontroller I2C peripheral with appropriate pull-up resistors. The device supports clock frequencies up to 400 kHz and features a self-timed erase/write cycle, eliminating the need for a separate erase command.
