The S-24C08CI-H6T3 is an 8K (1024 x 8) bit EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) device manufactured by SII Semiconductor Corporation. It's designed for low-voltage, low-power operation, making it suitable for a variety of applications where non-volatile data storage is required.

Applications

• Consumer electronics: Set-top boxes, DVD recorders, TVs, and audio equipment
• Industrial control systems: Data logging, storing calibration parameters
• Automotive electronics: Car radios, immobilizers, and other embedded systems
• Medical devices: Portable medical instruments and patient monitoring equipment
• Security systems: Access control and alarm systems

Features

• Operating voltage: 1.8V to 5.5V
• Low current consumption: Typically 1.0 mA read current and 0.5 μA standby current
• I<sup>2C bus interface: Supports standard (100 kHz) and fast (400 kHz) modes
• Write protect function: Protects the entire memory array from accidental overwrites
• Self-timed write cycle: Simplifies the write operation by automatically handling the erase and write timing
• High reliability: Data retention of 100 years and endurance of 1 million write cycles
• Package: SOT-23-6 (Small Outline Transistor)

Benefits

• Non-volatile memory: Retains stored data even when power is removed
• Low power consumption: Extends battery life in portable devices
• Easy integration: Simple I<sup>2C interface allows for easy connection to microcontrollers and other devices

Additional Details

The S-24C08CI-H6T3 communicates using the I<sup>2C serial interface, which requires only two wires (SDA and SCL) for communication. It has a built-in write protect function that, when enabled, prevents the memory contents from being accidentally overwritten. The EEPROM is organized as 1024 bytes x 8 bits. The self-timed write cycle feature simplifies the writing process, as the device automatically manages the erase and write timing. The device offers high reliability, with data retention of 100 years and an endurance of 1 million write cycles. Its operating temperature range is typically -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for various industrial and automotive applications.
