The IC component 93AA56B-I/P is an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) device manufactured by Microchip Technology. It offers 2K bits of memory organized in 128 bytes, making it suitable for small-scale data storage applications. Here are the key features of this IC component:
1. Memory Organization: The 93AA56B-I/P has 128 bytes of memory, each consisting of 8 bits. The memory is organized into 16 pages, with each page containing 8 bytes.
2. Serial Interface: This IC utilizes the industry-standard 3-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol for communication. It operates using a clock line (SCK), a data input/output line (SI/O), and a chip select line (CS).
3. Write Protection: The 93AA56B-I/P offers a write protection feature that allows certain memory areas to be protected from alteration. By programming the write protection bits in the status register, users can prevent data from being accidentally modified.
4. Self-Timed Erase/Write Cycles: Erasing or writing data on this IC is achieved through dedicated commands that automatically manage the process. Once initiated, the device completes the erase/write operation without any external intervention, reducing the complexity of the overall system.
5. High Reliability and Endurance: The EEPROM utilizes a tunnel oxide for memory cells, ensuring excellent reliability and endurance
