The AT29C040A-12PC is an integrated circuit (IC) component designed by Atmel Corporation. This IC is a 4-megabit (or 512-kilobyte) electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM). Here are some key features of the AT29C040A-12PC:
1. Memory Capacity: It offers a total memory capacity of 4-megabits, organized as 512 kilobytes (524,288 bytes). This ample storage allows for the storage of various data and program codes.
2. High-Speed Performance: The AT29C040A-12PC offers fast operation with access times as low as 120 nanoseconds. This allows for quick read and write operations, enhancing overall performance.
3. Low Power Consumption: The IC component is designed with low power consumption as a key feature. It operates with a wide voltage range (2.7 to 5.5 volts) and consumes minimal power during active and standby modes, making it suitable for energy-efficient applications.
4. Electrically Erasable Programmable: It is an electrically erasable programmable device, which means that the data stored can be erased and reprogrammed electronically, without the need for exposure to ultraviolet light.
5. Byte-Level Operations: The AT29C040A-12PC supports byte-level operations, allowing individual bytes to be read from or written to independently
