The IC component 93LC56-I/SN is a serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It offers non-volatile storage of data with a capacity of 2 kilobits (256 bytes). This IC is commonly used in applications that require small amounts of non-volatile memory, such as microcontrollers and other embedded systems. Here are some key features of the 93LC56-I/SN:
1. Serial Communication: The 93LC56-I/SN communicates using a simple 3-wire serial interface, which consists of a clock (SCK), data input (SI), and data output (SO). This allows for easy integration into various circuit designs and microcontroller systems.
2. Memory Organization: The 93LC56-I/SN uses a byte-oriented addressing scheme and offers 256 bytes of storage. It is organized as 32 pages, with each page containing 8 bytes.
3. Low Power Consumption: This IC component features a low power consumption mode, making it suitable for battery-powered applications. It consumes minimal power during standby, typically in the microampere range, which significantly extends battery life
