Microchip 93LC46B/P 1Kbit MICROWIRE Serial EEPROM DIP-8

The Microchip 93LC46B/P is a 1Kbit serial Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) that utilises the MICROWIRE interface for reliable, low-power data storage. This device is designed for a wide range of nonvolatile memory applications, offering dedicated 16-bit communication. Advanced CMOS technology ensures low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered and energy-conscious systems.

This EEPROM features a robust set of functions to facilitate easy integration and dependable operation. It includes self-timed erase/write cycles, an automatic erase all (ERAL) before write all (WRAL) function, and power ON/OFF data protection circuitry to secure your data. The industry-standard 3-wire serial I/O interface simplifies connection, while the device status signal and sequential read function enhance operational efficiency. With a high endurance of 1,000,000 erase/write cycles and data retention greater than 200 years, this memory component is built for long-term reliability.
