AT24C04

The AT24C04 is a 4Kb (512 x 8) serial Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) organized as 512 words of 8 bits each. Manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc., this EEPROM utilizes an I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) interface for communication, making it ideal for use in a wide range of applications where non-volatile memory storage is required. The AT24C04 offers high reliability, low power consumption, and the capability for byte and page write operations. Key Features:

• Memory Size: 4Kb (512 x 8)
• Interface: I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) two-wire bus
• Supply Voltage: 1.7V to 5.5V
• Write Cycle Time: 5 ms (max) per byte
• Low Power Consumption: Low standby current
• Endurance: 1,000,000 write cycles per byte
• Data Retention: 100 years
• Package Types: Available in various packages including SOIC, TSSOP, and PDIP

Technical Specifications:

• Memory Organization: 512 x 8 bits
• Clock Frequency: Up to 1 MHz for fast-mode plus operation
• Write Protection: Hardware write-protect pin to protect the entire memory
• Page Write: Up to 16 bytes per page write
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C
• Packages: 8-lead SOIC, 8-lead TSSOP, 8-lead PDIP
• Acknowledge Polling: Allows the device to indicate the end of write cycle

Applications:

• Consumer Electronics: Used in televisions, audio equipment, and appliances for storing configuration data.
