What are the key features of 24LC02B-I/SN?

  • 2Kbit (256x8) I2C EEPROM with 2.5V to 5.5V wide supply voltage range
  • 400 kHz Fast Mode I2C compatibility for high-speed data transfer
  • Hardware write-protect pin with page write capability up to 8 bytes
  • 1 million erase/write cycle endurance with 200-year data retention
  • Compact SOIC-8 package with up to 8 devices on single bus via address pins

What is 24LC02B-I/SN used for?

The 24LC02B-I/SN is ideal for storing calibration data, configuration parameters, and system boot information in embedded systems and consumer electronics. It is commonly used in industrial sensors, medical devices, and communication equipment where small-capacity non-volatile memory with reliable I2C interface is needed. Its wide voltage range and hardware write-protect feature make it suitable for battery-powered IoT nodes and portable instruments requiring data retention without power.

Frequently Asked Questions

What voltage range does the 24LC02B-I/SN support, and how does it interface with microcontrollers?

The 24LC02B-I/SN operates from 2.5V to 5.5V supply voltage, making it compatible with both 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers via the standard 2-wire I2C interface running up to 400 kHz. It supports hardware address configuration allowing up to 8 devices on a single bus.

How much data can the 24LC02B-I/SN store, and what write endurance does it provide?

This EEPROM stores 2Kbits (256 bytes) organized as 256x8-bit words, sufficient for calibration constants, device settings, or small lookup tables. It guarantees 1 million erase/write cycles per byte and data retention of 200 years at 25°C, providing robust non-volatile storage.

Which embedded designs benefit most from using the 24LC02B-I/SN instead of a larger EEPROM?

Designs that only need to store a handful of configuration bytes — such as sensor calibration offsets, MAC addresses, or trim values — benefit from the 24LC02B's 256-byte capacity in the compact SOIC-8 footprint. Choosing this 2Kbit device over a larger variant saves cost when data requirements stay below 256 bytes and the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range covers the application.
