Description:
The Microchip Technology Inc. 24AA024/24LC024/
24AA025/24LC025 is a 2 Kbit Serial Electrically
Erasable PROM with a voltage range of 1.7V to 5.5V.
The device is organized as a single block of 256 x 8-bit
memory with a 2-wire serial interface. Low current
design permits operation with typical standby and
active currents of only 1
μA
and 1 mA, respectively.
The device has a page write capability for up to 16
bytes of data. Functional address lines allow the
connection of up to eight 24AA024/24LC024/
24AA025/24LC025 devices on the same bus for up to
16K bits of contiguous EEPROM memory. The device
is available in the standard 8-pin PDIP, 8-pin SOIC
(3.90 mm), TSSOP, 2x3 DFN and TDFN and MSOP
packages. The 24AA025/24LC025 is also available in
the 6-lead SOT-23 package.

Note 1:
Not 100% tested. C
B
= total capacitance of one bus line in pF.
2:
As a transmitter, the device must provide an internal minimum delay time to bridge the undefined region (minimum
300 ns) of the falling edge of SCL to avoid unintended generation of Start or Stop conditions.
3:
The combined T
SP
and V
HYS
specifications are due to new Schmitt Trigger inputs, which provide improved noise spike
suppression. This eliminates the need for a T
I
specification for standard operation.
4:
This parameter is not tested but ensured by characterization. For endurance estimates in a specific application, please
consult the Total Endurance™ Model which can be obtained from Microchip’s web site at www.microchip.com.

2.1
SDA Serial Data
2.5
Noise Protection
SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer addresses
and data into and out of the device. It is an open-drain
terminal; therefore, the SDA bus requires a pull-up
resistor to V
CC
(typical 10 kΩ for 100 kHz, 2 kΩ for
400 kHz).
For normal data transfer, SDA is allowed to change
only during SCL low. Changes during SCL high are
reserved for indicating the Start and Stop conditions.
The 24AA024/24LC024/24AA025/24LC025 employs a
V
CC
threshold detector circuit which disables the
internal erase/write logic if the V
CC
is below 1.5V at
nominal conditions.
The SCL and SDA inputs have Schmitt Trigger and
filter circuits which suppress noise spikes to assure
proper device operation, even on a noisy bus.
2.2
SCL Serial Clock
3.0
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The SCL input is used to synchronize the data transfer
from and to the device.
2.3
A0, A1, A2
The levels on the A0, A1 and A2 inputs are compared
with the corresponding bits in the slave address. The
chip is selected if the compare is true. For the SOT-23
package only, pin A2 is not connected.
Up to eight 24AA024/24LC024/24AA025/24LC025
devices (four for the SOT-23 package) may be con-
nected to the same bus by using different Chip Select
bit combinations. These inputs must be connected to
either V
CC
or V
SS
.
The 24AA024/24LC024/24AA025/24LC025 supports
a bidirectional, 2-wire bus and data transmission
protocol. A device that sends data onto the bus is
defined as transmitter, while a device receiving data
is defined as receiver. The bus has to be controlled
by a master device that generates the Serial Clock
(SCL), controls the bus access and generates the
Start and Stop conditions, while the 24AA024/
24LC024/24AA025/24LC025 works as slave. Both
master and slave can operate as transmitter or
receiver, but the master device determines which
mode is activated.
2.4
WP (24XX024 Only)
WP is the hardware write-protect pin. It must be tied to
V
CC
or V
SS
. If tied to Vcc, hardware write protection is
enabled. If WP is tied to Vss, the hardware write
protection is disabled. Note that the WP pin is available
only on the 24XX024. This pin is not internally
connected on the 24LC025.
