The PCF8582C-2T is a 256 x 8-bit static Random Access Memory (RAM) with a serial I2C-bus interface. While originally manufactured by Philips Semiconductors (now NXP), Integrated Circuit Systems (ICS) may have been a second-source or distributor. This device is designed for applications requiring non-volatile data storage with a simple two-wire serial interface.
Applications:
- Data logging
- Configuration storage
- Parameter storage
- Electronic metering
- Industrial control systems
Features:
- 256 x 8-bit (256 bytes) of static RAM
- I2C-bus serial interface
- Low standby current
