What are the key features of 24LC32A-I/ST?

  • 32 Kbit capacity organized as 4096 x 8 for configuration and calibration data storage
  • 1,000,000 write/erase cycle endurance with 200-year minimum data retention for long product lifetimes
  • Standard I2C interface at up to 400 kHz with selectable address pins supporting up to 8 devices on one bus

What is 24LC32A-I/ST used for?

The 24LC32A-I/ST is widely used in consumer electronics, industrial controllers, and medical devices to store non-volatile configuration parameters, calibration coefficients, and firmware version information. Its compact 8-pin TSSOP footprint and 2.5 V minimum supply make it an ideal companion chip for microcontrollers in low-voltage embedded designs requiring reliable data retention across power cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many write cycles can the 24LC32A-I/ST handle before wear affects data integrity?

The 24LC32A-I/ST is guaranteed for a minimum of 1,000,000 write/erase cycles per byte location. Beyond this endurance limit, cell retention may degrade. For applications that update data very frequently, spreading writes across multiple address locations using wear-leveling techniques can significantly extend the useful service life of the device.

Can multiple 24LC32A-I/ST devices share the same I2C bus in a system?

Yes, up to 8 devices can coexist on a single I2C bus by using the 3 hardware address pins (A0, A1, A2) to assign unique 7-bit addresses in the range 0x50 to 0x57. This allows a total of 256 Kbit of EEPROM storage to be addressed from a single 2-wire I2C interface running at up to 400 kHz.

What is the minimum supply voltage for the 24LC32A-I/ST and how long can stored data be retained without power?

The 24LC32A-I/ST operates from a minimum supply voltage of 2.5 V, making it compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontroller systems. Stored data is non-volatile and is specified to be retained for a minimum of 200 years once programmed, even with the supply completely removed, so it is reliable for long-life industrial products.
