The 93AA66CT-I/MC is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component manufactured by Microchip Technology. It is a 4K-bit serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) with a memory density of 512 bytes or 4096 bits. This IC is commonly used in various electronic devices and systems for non-volatile storage of critical data and settings.
Key features of the 93AA66CT-I/MC include:
1. Non-volatile Storage: The IC offers non-volatile storage, meaning the stored data remains intact even when the power supply is disconnected.
2. Serial Interface: It utilizes a serial interface for both programming and reading data. This makes it easy to integrate into systems that communicate with other devices through a serial connection.
3. 16-bit Organization: The memory is organized into 512 pages, with each page comprising 8 words of 16 bits each. This allows for efficient addressing and manipulation of stored data.
4. Low Power Consumption: The IC operates at low power, making it suitable for battery-powered devices and applications where power efficiency is crucial.
5. Automotive Qualified: The 93AA66CT-I/MC is manufactured using automotive-grade processes and is tested to meet the high standards required for automotive applications, making it suitable for use in vehicles.
6. Write Protection: It provides write protection features to prevent accidental or unauthorized modifications to the stored data. This ensures the integrity and security of critical information
