Product details
Overview
24AA014HT-I/MS from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 1 Kbit (128 × 8) I²C-compatible serial EEPROM with hardware write-protection for the upper half-array (addresses 40h–7Fh), operating from 1.7V to 5.5V, supporting up to 400 kHz clock frequency, and rated for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) in an 8-pin MSOP package.
For engineers reviewing the 24AA014HT-I/MS datasheet, 24AA014HT-I/MS pinout, 24AA014HT-I/MS application, or 24AA014HT-I/MS equivalent, this device serves as a low-power, noise-immune nonvolatile memory solution for embedded system configuration storage, calibration data retention, and firmware parameter backup where voltage flexibility and bus noise resilience are critical.
Technical Context
The 24AA014HT-I/MS implements a two-wire I²C interface with Schmitt-trigger inputs and output slope control to suppress ground bounce and reject noise spikes up to 50 ns. Its internal address counter supports current-address, random, and sequential read modes, while the 16-byte page write buffer enables efficient multi-byte programming without host-side timing constraints.
Hardware write protection is controlled solely by the WP pin state (VCC = protected, VSS = disabled), independent of software commands. The device uses on-chip high-voltage generation for erase/write cycles and includes a VCC threshold detector that disables write logic below 1.5 V to prevent inadvertent corruption during brown-out conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 1 Kbit (128 × 8 bytes) - sufficient for small configuration tables, sensor calibration coefficients, or boot parameters in space-constrained designs. |
| VCC operating range | 1.7V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V microcontrollers without level-shifting. |
| Max I²C clock frequency | 400 kHz at VCC ≥ 1.8V - supports fast parameter updates while maintaining compatibility with legacy 100 kHz systems. |
| Write endurance | 1 million erase/write cycles - ensures long-term reliability for frequently updated settings in industrial controllers or medical devices. |
| Data retention | 200 years at 25°C - guarantees persistent storage of critical calibration or security keys over product lifetime. |
| Standby current | 1 μA maximum (I-temp) - minimizes power draw in battery-backed or energy-harvesting applications. |
| Page write capacity | Up to 16 bytes per write cycle - reduces I²C transaction overhead and improves throughput versus byte-write-only EEPROMs. |
Pinout & Package
24AA014HT-I/MS is housed in an 8-pin MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package) with 0.65 mm pitch, measuring 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Chip select input | Configures LSB of 7-bit slave address (1010xxx); allows up to eight devices on same I²C bus when combined with A1 and A2. |
| A1 | Chip select input | Configures middle bit of slave address; must be hard-wired to VSS or VCC-no floating states permitted. |
| A2 | Chip select input | Configures MSB of slave address; enables contiguous 8 Kbit expansion across multiple devices via software-addressed A8–A10 mapping. |
| VSS | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane to maintain noise immunity. |
| SDA | Serial data bidirectional line | Open-drain I²C data line requiring external pull-up resistor (2 kΩ typical for 400 kHz); changes only during SCL low except for Start/Stop. |
| SCL | Serial clock input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all data transfers; features Schmitt trigger input for robust noise rejection. |
| WP | Hardware write-protect input | Active-high enable: tied to VCC locks addresses 40h–7Fh; tied to VSS disables protection entirely-no software override possible. |
| VCC | Power supply | Accepts 1.7V–5.5V; internal regulation ensures stable operation across wide input range; threshold detector prevents writes below 1.5V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Schmitt-trigger inputs with 50 ns spike suppression | Eliminates need for external RC filtering on SDA/SCL lines, reducing BOM count and board area in noisy industrial environments. |
| Output slope control | Prevents ground bounce during SDA transitions, avoiding false Start/Stop detection and ensuring reliable communication on shared buses. |
| Half-array hardware write protection (40h–7Fh) | Physically blocks writes to upper 64 bytes regardless of software state-ideal for safeguarding factory-calibrated constants or security keys. |
| Self-timed write cycle with auto-erase | Removes requirement for precise host timing control; host can poll ACK or use fixed 5 ms delay before next command. |
| 100 kHz / 400 kHz dual-speed compatibility | Ensures interoperability with both legacy and modern I²C masters without protocol translation or clock stretching. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24LC014HT-I/MS | Requires minimum 2.5V VCC; supports 1 MHz I²C clock; identical pinout and memory map. | Better suited for 3.3V/5V-only systems needing higher throughput; not usable in 1.8V logic domains. | Select when higher speed (1 MHz) is required and supply voltage is ≥2.5V; verify WP behavior matches design intent. |
| AT24C01D-MAHM-T | 1 Kbit I²C EEPROM with 1.7V–5.5V operation, 400 kHz max clock, and write-protect pin; manufactured by Microchip (acquired Atmel). | Same functional scope but different marking and minor AC timing variances; RoHS-compliant MSOP-8 package. | Valid drop-in alternative with identical electrical interface and package; confirm factory programming availability if QTP required. |
Compared with 24AA014HT-I/MS, the 24LC014HT-I/MS offers faster clock support but sacrifices 1.7V operation, while the AT24C01D-MAHM-T provides equivalent low-voltage capability and sourcing continuity through Microchip's Atmel integration-making it preferable for new designs requiring long-term supply assurance.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage required for reliable operation of the 24AA014HT-I/MS?
The 24AA014HT-I/MS operates reliably down to 1.7V across its full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). Below 1.8V, maximum I²C clock frequency is limited to 100 kHz to ensure timing margin. The internal VCC threshold detector disables write operations below 1.5V to prevent data corruption during brown-out events-this behavior is inherent to the 24AA014HT-I/MS and requires no external supervision circuitry.
How does hardware write protection work on the 24AA014HT-I/MS?
Hardware write protection on the 24AA014HT-I/MS is controlled exclusively by the WP pin: when tied to VCC, addresses 40h–7Fh (upper 64 bytes) are permanently locked against write or erase commands-even if the host attempts to write there, the 24AA014HT-I/MS acknowledges the command but ignores the data. When WP is tied to VSS, full array access is enabled. No software command can override this pin-driven protection, making it ideal for safeguarding immutable calibration data in the 24AA014HT-I/MS.
Can multiple 24AA014HT-I/MS devices share the same I²C bus?
Yes-up to eight 24AA014HT-I/MS devices can coexist on a single I²C bus using the A0, A1, and A2 address pins to configure unique 7-bit slave addresses (1010xxx). Each pin must be hard-wired to either VSS or VCC; floating states are invalid. This enables scalable memory expansion (up to 8 Kbits total) with contiguous addressing support in software, provided the host correctly maps A0–A2 to address bits A8–A10 as defined in the 24AA014HT-I/MS functional specification.
What is the maximum write cycle time for the 24AA014HT-I/MS?
The 24AA014HT-I/MS specifies a maximum write cycle time of 5 ms for both byte and page writes, regardless of whether hardware write protection is enabled or disabled. During this period, the device does not acknowledge I²C commands-this behavior enables ACK polling to detect completion. Host firmware must either wait the full 5 ms or implement ACK polling; exceeding this time does not damage the 24AA014HT-I/MS but may cause communication timeouts if polling is misconfigured.
Does the 24AA014HT-I/MS support standard I²C addressing modes?
Yes-the 24AA014HT-I/MS implements standard 7-bit I²C addressing with a fixed 4-bit control code (1010b) followed by three programmable chip-select bits (A2, A1, A0) and a read/write bit. It fully complies with I²C bus specifications including Start/Stop condition generation, ACK/NACK signaling, and clock stretching avoidance. The 24AA014HT-I/MS does not support 10-bit addressing or SMBus-specific commands such as block write/read-its interface is strictly compatible with legacy and modern I²C masters.
