Frequently Asked Questions
What memory capacity and organization does the 93LC86C-I/SN provide?
The 93LC86C-I/SN offers 16K bits of serial EEPROM storage, configurable as either 1024 words of 16 bits or 2048 words of 8 bits depending on the logic level applied to the ORG pin. This dual organization flexibility allows the same device to match 8-bit or 16-bit data bus architectures without additional hardware.
What is the endurance and data retention of the 93LC86C-I/SN?
The 93LC86C-I/SN is rated for a minimum of 1,000,000 write/erase cycles and provides a minimum data retention time of 200 years. These specifications make it reliable for applications requiring frequent updates as well as long-term storage of configuration or calibration data.
What package and interface does the 93LC86C-I/SN use?
The 93LC86C-I/SN comes in an 8-pin Small Outline IC (SOIC-8) surface-mount package with a 3-wire Microwire serial interface. The SOIC-8 package is suitable for automated PCB assembly and offers a smaller PCB footprint compared to through-hole DIP packages.
What clock frequency does the 93LC86C-I/SN support?
The 93LC86C-I/SN supports a maximum clock frequency of 2MHz on its serial interface. This clock rate provides a good balance between data transfer speed and compatibility with a wide range of microcontrollers and low-speed SPI or Microwire peripherals.
What are typical applications for the 93LC86C-I/SN?
Typical applications include storing calibration coefficients in sensors, saving device configuration settings in industrial controllers, maintaining serial numbers in communication modules, and preserving user preferences in consumer appliances. Its small size, low pin count, and serial interface are well suited to microcontroller-based embedded designs.
