The IC component 24LC32A-I/SN is an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) integrated circuit manufactured by Microchip Technology. It is commonly used to store small amounts of non-volatile data in various electronic devices such as microcontrollers, sensors, and other embedded systems.
Key Features of 24LC32A-I/SN:
1. Storage Capacity: It has a storage capacity of 32 kilobits (32 Kbits) or 4 kilobytes (4 KB) of memory. This allows it to store a moderate amount of data and program code in electronic systems.
2. Serial Interface: The IC uses the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) serial bus protocol for communication. I2C is a commonly used two-wire interface that enables easy integration with microcontrollers and other devices.
3. Low Power Consumption: The 24LC32A-I/SN operates on a low voltage supply range of 1.8V to 5.5V, making it suitable for battery-powered or low-power devices. It has low power consumption during both read and write operations, which helps in extending the battery life of portable devices.
4. High Reliability: This IC offers high reliability and endurance, with a specified minimum of 1,000,000 write cycles and data retention of up to 200 years. It also has built-in protection mechanisms like write-protect and power-on/off data protection
