The IC component 93LC66AT-I/MC is a serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) chip manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc. It is commonly used in various electronic devices for non-volatile memory storage.
Key features of the 93LC66AT-I/MC include:
1. Storage Capacity: The chip offers a total storage capacity of 4K bits, organized into 512 bytes. Each byte can be individually read from or written to.
2. Serial Interface: It utilizes a 3-wire Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) for communication with the host microcontroller. The SPI interface allows for easy integration with a wide range of microcontrollers.
3. Low Power Consumption: The IC is designed to operate at low power, making it suitable for battery-powered applications. It consumes minimal power during both active and standby modes.
4. High-Speed Performance: With a maximum clock frequency of 2.5 MHz, the 93LC66AT-I/MC can achieve high-speed operation, enabling fast read and write operations.
5. Write Protection: The chip includes a built-in Write Protect (WP) pin, which can be used to prevent accidental writes to the memory. When the WP pin is enabled, all write operations are disabled, ensuring data integrity
