The CAT24C32C5ATR is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component that belongs to the CAT24 series of EEPROM memory chips manufactured by ON Semiconductor. This particular IC is a 32-kilobit (32K) I2C Serial EEPROM with a storage capacity of up to 4 kilobytes. It is designed to provide non-volatile memory storage and retrieval capabilities for a wide range of electronic devices and applications.
Key Features of the CAT24C32C5ATR:
1. Serial Interface: The CAT24C32C5ATR utilizes the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) serial interface protocol for communication with the host microcontroller or system. It supports both standard (100 kHz) and fast (400 kHz) modes of operation.
2. Memory Organization: The IC offers a memory organization of 4096 bytes divided into 128 pages, each containing 32 bytes. This allows for efficient data storage and manipulation.
3. Non-Volatile Storage: The EEPROM technology employed in this IC ensures that the stored data remains intact even in the absence of power supply. This non-volatile characteristic is essential for preserving critical information and settings in various applications.
4. Low Power Consumption: The CAT24C32C5ATR is designed to operate under low-power conditions, making it suitable for battery-powered devices. It consumes minimal energy during read and write operations, resulting in extended battery life
