The IC component 93C46BT-I/SN is a popular and widely used serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It is specifically designed to store and retrieve small amounts of data in electronic devices.
Key Features of the 93C46BT-I/SN include:
1. Memory Capacity: The 93C46BT-I/SN has a total memory capacity of 1,024 bits or 128 bytes, organized in 64 pages of 16 bits each. It is optimal for storing small amounts of critical data or configuration settings.
2. Serial Interface: It utilizes a 3-wire SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) for communication, making it compatible with a variety of microcontrollers and embedded systems. This interface allows for easy integration with other digital circuitry.
3. High-Speed Performance: With a maximum clock frequency of 3 MHz, the 93C46BT-I/SN offers fast read and write access times, ensuring efficient data transfer and response times between the EEPROM and the controlling device.
4. Non-Volatile Memory: The data stored in the 93C46BT-I/SN is non-volatile, meaning it is retained even when the power supply is disconnected. This makes it suitable for applications that require persistent memory, such as storing configuration parameters or calibration data
