What are the key features of 24LC024-I/SN?

  • 2 Kbit I2C EEPROM with 400 kHz fast-mode bus support for quick data transfers in tight polling loops
  • 1,000,000 write/erase cycle endurance enabling reliable long-lifetime configuration storage in field-deployed products
  • 200-year minimum data retention ensuring persistent non-volatile storage across product service life
  • 8-pin SOIC-8 package with address pins supporting up to 4 devices on a single I2C bus

What is 24LC024-I/SN used for?

The 24LC024-I/SN is used to store calibration coefficients, device serial numbers, MAC addresses, and configuration parameters in embedded systems such as industrial sensors, smart meters, and IoT edge nodes. Its I2C interface and 8-pin SOIC footprint make it easy to add non-volatile storage to any microcontroller-based design using only 2 signal lines, with multiple devices addressable on a shared bus for multi-node parameter storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many write/erase cycles does the 24LC024-I/SN support, and what data retention does it guarantee?

The 24LC024-I/SN is rated for 1,000,000 write/erase cycles per byte and guarantees a minimum data retention period of 200 years. This combination is well suited for applications that update configuration registers or calibration data daily over a 10-year product lifetime, which would accumulate only 3,650 write cycles — far below the 1 million cycle limit.

How many 24LC024-I/SN devices can share a single I2C bus, and how are they addressed?

The 24LC024-I/SN uses a 4-bit device address field in the I2C control byte (1010DDDR), where the D bits are set by up to 2 hardware address pins (A1, A0). This allows up to 4 devices to coexist on a single I2C bus, each storing 2 Kbits of independent data — a convenient approach for multi-sensor nodes that must each retain individual calibration parameters.

At 400 kHz I2C speed, how fast can the 24LC024-I/SN complete a byte write, and what is the write cycle time?

At 400 kHz fast-mode I2C, sequential byte addressing and data transfer over the bus completes in microseconds per byte. However, the 24LC024-I/SN's internal write cycle time is 5 ms maximum per write operation, during which the device is busy programming the non-volatile cell. Firmware should poll the ACK or use a 5 ms delay between consecutive write commands to avoid failed write attempts.

For a space-constrained IoT sensor board, how does the 24LC024-I/SN's SOIC-8 package simplify integration?

The 8-pin SOIC-8 footprint measures approximately 5 mm × 4 mm and requires only the SDA and SCL lines plus VCC and GND connections. Because I2C is a shared bus, no additional chip-select or SPI lines are consumed, allowing the 24LC024-I/SN to be added to a design with fewer than 4 PCB traces and minimal board area impact — ideal for compact IoT sensor nodes with limited routing space.
