AT24C04AN-10SC-1.8

Memory

The AT24C04AN-10SC-1.8 (hereinafter referred to as AT24C04) is an EEPROM device with 4 kbit memory capacity, developed and produced by Atmel, an American manufacturer. The AT24C04 provides 4096 b pages of EEPROM that can be read and written via a serial I2C interface. The memory device is housed in an 8 pin surface mount SOP package, making it ideal for use in space-constrained applications. In addition, the low-voltage operation of the AT24C04 (1.8 to 5.5V) makes it suitable for use in battery-powered applications.

The working principle of AT24C04 is based on the I2C communication protocol. The two signal lines, SCL and SDA, offer a two-wire interface between the memory device and the host microcontroller. The SCL signal is the clock signal of the read and write process, which is transmitted by the master controller. The SDA signal is the data line that carries the actual data to be read or written. The protocol used by the memory device involves the transmission of numerical codes called slave addresses, which indicate the device address. Then, the master controller can request read or write operations to this specific addressdevice.

The AT24C04 is suitable for a variety of applications, including stand-alone systems, embedded systems, medical electronics, automotive electronics, consumer electronics, industrial automation and security. In addition, its low power consumption makes it suitable for battery-powered devices. With its 4 KiB memory array and I2C interface, it is capable of storing a large amount of data and providing fast, efficient data acquisition and manipulation.

In summary, the AT24C04 is an EEPROM device with 4 Kbit memory capacity, low power consumption and I2C interface, making it suitable for a variety of applications, such as embedded systems, medical electronics, automotive electronics, consumer electronics, industrial automation and security. Its low-voltage operating range (1.8 to 5.5 V) and small form factor make it ideal for space-constrained applications.
