Microchip | 24C65/SM

The 24C65 (24XX65*) is a “smart” 8 K x 8 Serial Electrically Erasable PROM. This device has been developed for advanced, low-power applications such as personal communications, and provides the systems designer with flexibility through the use of many new user-programmable features.

The 24C65 offers a relocatable 4 K bit block of ultra-high-endurance memory for data that changes frequently. The 24C65 features an input cache for fast write loads with a capacity of eight pages, or 64 bytes. This device also features programmable security options for E/W protection of critical data and/or code of up to fifteen 4 K blocks. Functional address lines allow the connection of up to eight 24XX65’s on the same bus for up to 512 K bits contiguous EEPROM memory. Advanced CMOS technology makes this device ideal for low-power nonvolatile code and data applications. The 24XX65 is available in the standard 8-pin plastic DIP and 8-pin surface mount SOIJ package.
