Key Features

  • 128 Kbit (16 KB) I2C EEPROM with 400 kHz fast-mode operation for rapid read/write in microcontroller-based storage applications
  • 1,000,000 write/erase cycle endurance with 200-year minimum data retention for reliable non-volatile storage in embedded systems
  • 8-pin PDIP-8 through-hole package with I2C address bits (A0/A1) supporting up to 8 devices on a single 2-wire bus

Applications

The 24AA128-I/P is widely used as a non-volatile configuration and calibration data store in microcontroller-based systems, including industrial sensors, medical instruments, and consumer electronics that require 128 Kbit of reliable I2C EEPROM storage. Its 400 kHz fast-mode I2C interface and 8-pin DIP package make it straightforward to prototype and integrate with any MCU platform using a simple 2-wire bus. With 1,000,000 erase cycles and 200-year data retention, it suits applications such as meter logging, network appliance parameter storage, and identification data in field-replaceable modules.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many devices can be connected to a single I2C bus using the 24AA128-I/P, and how are they addressed?

The 24AA128-I/P uses the I2C control byte 1010DDDR, where the two device address bits (A0 and A1) allow up to 4 unique 24AA128 devices on a single 2-wire bus. If combined with other I2C EEPROM variants sharing the same bus, the standard 7-bit I2C address space allows up to 8 total devices in the 1010xxx address range, providing up to 1 Mbit (128 KB) of addressable EEPROM storage on 2 wires.

What write endurance and data retention does the 24AA128-I/P guarantee for embedded logging applications?

The 24AA128-I/P is specified for 1,000,000 write/erase cycles per memory location and a minimum data retention time of 200 years at 25 degrees Celsius. For an embedded data logger writing a configuration block once per hour, the 1,000,000 cycle endurance provides approximately 114 years of reliable writes before wear-out, far exceeding the operational lifetime of most industrial or consumer equipment.

What is the maximum I2C clock speed supported by the 24AA128-I/P, and does it work with standard-mode I2C masters?

The 24AA128-I/P supports a maximum I2C clock frequency of 400 kHz, which qualifies it as a Fast Mode device per I2C specification. It is also backward compatible with 100 kHz standard-mode I2C masters, making it universally usable across virtually all microcontroller platforms including AVR, PIC, ARM Cortex-M, and ESP32 without any special configuration, and it operates from a supply voltage compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V systems.
