The 24C01C/P is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component that falls under the category of electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) chips. It is commonly used for storing data in microcontroller-based systems or other electronic devices. Here is an overview of the 24C01C/P along with its key features:
1. Memory Capacity: The 24C01C/P has a memory capacity of 1 kilobit (128 bytes) of non-volatile electrically erasable storage. This capacity allows for storing a moderate amount of data, making it suitable for small-scale applications.
2. Communication Protocol: It follows the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) communication protocol, which is a widely used standard for communication between ICs on a circuit board. This protocol allows for efficient and reliable data transfer between the IC and the microcontroller or other devices.
3. Voltage Supply: The 24C01C/P operates at a wide voltage supply range, typically between 2.5 volts and 5.5 volts. This versatility in voltage supply allows for compatibility with various power systems.
4. Low Power Consumption: It is designed to consume low power during both active and standby modes. This is particularly important in battery-powered devices to extend the battery life.
5. Write Protection: The IC component provides write protection to prevent accidental or unauthorized modification of stored data. It offers a hardware-based write protection mechanism to ensure data integrity
