The IC component 93AA46/SN is a serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc. It provides non-volatile memory storage of 1K bits or 128 bytes. Here are the key features of this component:
1. High-density storage: The 93AA46/SN offers 1024 bits of electrically erasable and programmable memory. This memory is organized into 64 pages of 16 bytes each, allowing the storage and retrieval of data in a compact format.
2. Serial communication interface: The IC utilizes a 3-wire Microwire compatible serial interface for communication. This interface consists of a clock (CLK), data in (DI), and data out (DO) connections, allowing easy integration with microcontrollers, microprocessors, or other digital systems.
3. Low power consumption: This component operates at a low supply voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V, enabling it to consume minimal power during read and write operations. This feature is particularly useful in battery-powered or low-power devices.
4. Write protection and security: The 93AA46/SN includes write protection capabilities that prevent accidental modification of stored data. It offers a hardware write-protect pin (WP) that enables or disables write operations, ensuring data integrity. Additionally, the device supports software write protection, allowing specific memory locations to be write-protected
