AT17C002A-10BJC

The AT17C002A-10BJC is a 2Kbit serial CMOS memory that is designed for use as a Configuration PROM for Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The FPGA device contains a number of internal registers that need to be configured upon startup in order to determine its operation. The AT17C002A-10BJC is used to store and provide the necessary instructions for the initial configuration of the FPGA.

Features of the AT17C002A-10BJC Memory

The AT17C002A-10BJC configuration memory has a wide range of features that make it suitable for use as a Configuration PROM in FPGA applications. It is a 3V device with a very low power dissipation of 0.50 uA/Kb and provides easy configuration of FPGA devices. The device is available in both a lead-free RoHS compliant package and a temperature grade option. It includes self programming on power up and offers a number of read and write protection levels.

Application Field of AT17C002A-10BJC

The AT17C002A-10BJC is a flexible memory device and is suitable for a wide range of applications. It can be used in FPGA configurations to store and provide the necessary instructions for the initial configuration of the FPGA. The AT17C002A-10BJC can also be used in embedded systems that require programmable non-volatile memory, such as motor controllers, power management units and display systems.

The Working Principle of AT17C002A-10BJC

The AT17C002A-10BJC is a serial CMOS memory and it works on the same principle as other serial EEPROMs. Data is written and read serially, with each successive bit accessed by moving a single clock pulse to the input and output pins. When the chip is enabled, it will sequence through the memory location specified by an internal counter. Data can be written to the device serially or it can be programmed all at once. When the device is powered up, it will automatically enter the programming cycle and begin programming the Configuration PROM. When the programming cycle is complete, the device will enter the standby mode.

Conclusion

The AT17C002A-10BJC is a very useful configuration PROM for FPGA applications. It offers a wide range of features, such as low power consumption, flexible programming and read/write protection, making it suitable for a number of applications. It is also designed for use in embedded systems and can be used to store and provide the necessary instructions for the initial configuration of the FPGA.
