The AT24C16D-SSHM-B is an IC component manufactured by Microchip Technology. This device belongs to the AT24C series, which comprises serial EEPROM memory chips. The AT24C16D-SSHM-B is specifically designed to provide 16 kilobits (2 kilobytes) of electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) storage.
Here are some key features of the AT24C16D-SSHM-B:
1. Memory Capacity: The AT24C16D-SSHM-B offers a storage capacity of 16 kilobits, which is equivalent to 2 kilobytes. This memory capacity allows for storing a moderate amount of data for various applications.
2. Serial Interface: This IC component utilizes a two-wire serial interface, also known as the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) bus protocol. This industry-standard protocol enables easy communication with other compatible devices.
3. Low Power Consumption: The AT24C16D-SSHM-B is designed to keep power consumption minimal. It requires a low supply voltage, making it suitable for battery-powered devices or applications where power efficiency is a priority.
4. Write Protection: This IC component encompasses a built-in write-protection feature. It allows users to protect specific portions or the entire memory from unintentional data modification. This provides added security and data integrity to prevent accidental loss or corruption of stored information
