MCHP24LC04B-E/ST
Overview
The 24LC04B-E/ST is a 4Kbit (512 x 8) I2C serial EEPROM designed for high-reliability applications, featuring AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive environments. It supports a wide operating voltage range from 2.5V to 5.5V and includes a hardware write-protect pin for data security. This extended temperature version is rated for operation in harsh conditions, making it suitable for automotive and industrial control modules.
Why Choose This Part
The device features a 16-byte page write buffer and a fast self-timed write cycle of 5ms. It offers exceptional durability with over 1 million erase/write cycles and more than 200 years of data retention. The TSSOP-8 package includes Schmitt trigger inputs for noise suppression and output slope control to minimize ground bounce during high-speed transitions.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Interface the 24LC04B to any MCU via the SDA and SCL lines with pull-up resistors, typically 4.7k ohms for 400 kHz operation. Ensure the WP pin is tied to GND for normal write operations or VCC to protect the memory array. Microchip's MPLAB Starter Kits and MCC (Code Configurator) provide automated driver generation for standard I2C communication with this device.
