MICROCHIP 24LC128T-I/SN EEPROM, 128Kbit, I2C, SOIC8

The MICROCHIP 24LC128T-I/SN is a high-performance 128Kbit I²C CMOS serial EEPROM, designed for advanced low-power applications such as personal communications and data acquisition. With a broad operating voltage range from 1.7V to 5.5V, this device ensures reliable performance in various environments.

This EEPROM features a page write capability of up to 64 bytes, allowing efficient data storage. It supports both random and sequential reads up to the 128K boundary, providing flexibility for complex data management tasks. The functional address lines enable cascading up to eight devices on the same bus, expanding the address space to 1Mb.

The device includes a 2-wire serial I²C interface, compatible with 100kHz and 400kHz clock frequencies, ensuring seamless integration with standard microcontrollers. Schmitt trigger inputs provide noise suppression, while output slope control eliminates ground bounce, enhancing signal integrity. The self-timed erase/write cycle and a typical page write time of 5ms simplify programming operations.

For data protection, the 24LC128T-I/SN includes hardware write-protect and ESD protection exceeding 4000V. With more than 1 million erase/write cycles and data retention greater than 200 years, this EEPROM offers exceptional durability and longevity. Operating over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, it suits demanding industrial and automotive applications.

Applications

This EEPROM is ideal for automotive, industrial, communications networking, and consumer electronics, where low-power and reliable data storage are essential.
