The AT24C02-10PI is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component that belongs to the AT24C family, specifically the AT24C02 series. It is a 2-kilobit (256 x 8) EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) which is organized as 256 bytes of 8 bits each. Here are its key features:
1. High memory capacity: The AT24C02-10PI offers a storage capacity of 2 kilobits, which is equivalent to 256 bytes. This allows for storing a decent amount of data in a compact form.
2. Serial interface: This IC utilizes a Two-Wire Serial Interface (I2C-compatible) for communication. The I2C bus allows multiple devices to be connected on the same bus while being individually addressable.
3. Low power consumption: The AT24C02-10PI operates on a wide voltage supply range of 1.7V to 5.5V. It is designed to consume minimal power during both active and standby modes, ensuring energy efficiency.
4. Byte-level read and write access: The EEPROM memory cells in the AT24C02-10PI can be written or read individually, enabling byte-level random access to the stored data. This allows for efficient manipulation of specific data segments within the memory
