Overview

The M24C02-RMN6TP is a 2Kbit serial I2C bus EEPROM organized as 256 x 8 bits, designed for reliable non-volatile data storage in space-constrained applications. It operates over a wide voltage range from 1.8V to 5.5V and supports a 400 kHz clock frequency, making it compatible with most standard microcontrollers. The device is housed in a compact 8-pin SOIC package and features an ultra-low standby current of 1 uA.

Why Choose This Part

This EEPROM offers high flexibility with its wide 1.8V to 5.5V supply voltage range and minimal power consumption, drawing only 0.8mA during active cycles and 1 uA in standby. The 900 ns access time and standard I2C interface ensure easy integration into existing digital architectures without requiring specialized hardware.

Applications

Device Configuration Storage
Storing calibration data, user preferences, and network configuration settings in consumer and industrial electronics.
Operational Logging
Recording error codes, usage statistics, or event timestamps in systems with low data-density requirements.
Identification and Serial Numbering
Providing unique hardware identification and version tracking for modular electronic components.
