Microchip Technology, Inc. Memory 25LC020AT-I/ST

The Microchip 25AA020A/25LC020A is a 2 Kbit Serial EEPROM designed for use in industrial and automotive applications, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C for industrial and up to +125°C for automotive. It features a 256 x 8-bit memory organization and communicates via a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) with a maximum clock frequency of 10 MHz. The device supports low-power operation, with a maximum write and read current of 5 mA at 5.5V and a standby current of 5 µA. It includes write page mode capabilities for up to 16 bytes and offers self-timed erase and write cycles with a maximum duration of 5 ms. The EEPROM also incorporates block write protection and built-in write protection features, ensuring data integrity. With an endurance of 1,000,000 erase/write cycles and data retention exceeding 200 years, this EEPROM is suitable for applications requiring high reliability. The device is available in multiple package types, including 8-lead PDIP, SOIC, MSOP, TSSOP, DFN, and SOT-23, and is compliant with RoHS standards.
