93LC66AT/SN

Introduction

The 93LC66AT/SN is a type of Serial EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory), which is a non-volatile memory device which can be programmed and erased using an external programming voltage. This device is typically used in small-footprint applications where memory is at a premium and has the ability to operate at voltage levels as low as 1.8V.

Application Field

The 93LC66AT/SN is suitable for a variety of small-footprint applications, such as low-pin count products and portable electronic devices that require a large amount of data storage in a limited space. These applications include computer-controlled products, embedded systems, digital audio and video devices, medical devices, and other consumer applications. The 93LC66AT/SN also offers superior data retention, robustness and enhanced ESD/ESD/EMI protection. This makes it ideal for low-voltage, high-reliability applications.

Working Principle

The 93LC66AT/SN is based on the Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) technology. This device is capable of storing 64 bits of user data in a 16-byte array. The 93LC66AT/SN provides five-byte addressing, and is capable of executing up to 1,000 reads/erases, allowing for fast and efficient access to data stored in the device. To read or write data, a low voltage (< 2.7V) is applied to the chip, and a serial data connection is made to the chip. The 93LC66AT/SN can also be programmed via a two-wire serial I2C bus connection, allowing the chip to interface with other devices and components. The 93LC66AT/SN also features an on-chip "hold" pin that allows the device to operate at low voltage levels and increased current levels when enabled.

Conclusion

The 93LC66AT/SN is a versatile Serial EEPROM device that is suitable for a variety of applications, such as low-pin count products and portable electronic devices. Its low voltage operating range, robust design, and its ability to execute up to 1,000 reads/erases, make it an ideal solution for these types of applications. The on-chip "hold" pin also allows the device to operate in low-voltage, high-reliability environments, which makes it an excellent choice for a variety of embedded systems.
