24LC01B/S

Memory

The 24LC01B/S is a CMOS Serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) device that utilizes the I2C communications protocol. It is commonly used for a wide range of applications, ranging from factory automation to consumer electronics.

The 24LC01B/S has a storage capacity of 1024 bits (128 bytes) of nonvolatile memory with up to 16 bytes per page. Its operating temperature range is from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius and its operating voltage range is from 2.7V to 5.5V. The device is capable of transferring data at 400 kHz, with write access (EEPROM write) time of 2 ms. The device is available in a 6-pin SOT-23 package.

Application Field

The 24LC01B/S is a versatile device that can be used in many different industries. It can store data used for controlling factory automation systems, providing programmable configurations to devices, and storing sensor data. For example, it can be used to store calibration data for a device or to store recipe or program configurations.

The 24LC01B/S is also widely used in consumer electronics, such as practical datalogging, portable music devices, GPS units, and computers. It can store settings or configuration data, such as user settings in a device, or can be used to store data that needs to be preserved when power is removed, such as medical or gaming data.

Working Principle

The 24LC01B/S utilizes the I2C communications protocol, which is a two-wire serial bus used for communication between devices. The I2C bus consists of a data line (SDA) and a clock line (SCL). It can be used for transmitting data between the 24LC01B/S and a master device, such as a microcontroller or an embedded system. The 24LC01B/S communicates bi-directionally with the master device, allowing it to send and receive data.

The 24LC01B/S is capable of storing 1024 bits of data. It utilizes a memory page structure, which allows you to write up to 16 bytes at a time. Writing is initiated by sending the start condition, followed by the device’s 7-bit address and write operation bit. After the device address is received, the master device can write up to 16 bytes of data to the device. The device is then able to receive the next 16 bytes of data, and so forth and so on, until all the data has been written.

The 24LC01B/S is also capable of reading data. Reading is initiated by sending the start condition, followed by the device’s 7-bit address and read operation bit. The device will then return the requested data. After the data is received, the master device must send a stop condition to terminate the communication.

The 24LC01B/S is a versatile and reliable device that utilizes the I2C communications protocol, making it ideal for a wide range of applications. With its nonvolatile memory and fast write/read speed, it is a great choice for storing data in factory automation systems and consumer electronics.
