Product details
Overview
24AA014-I/SN from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 1 Kbit (128 × 8) I²C-compatible serial EEPROM with hardware write protection, operating from 1.7V to 5.5V, supporting up to 400 kHz clock rate at VCC ≥ 1.8V, and rated for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It features 16-byte page write buffer, 1 µA standby current, and 1,000,000 erase/write cycles - used for nonvolatile configuration storage in microcontroller-based systems.
For engineers reviewing the 24AA014-I/SN datasheet, 24AA014-I/SN pinout, 24AA014-I/SN application, or 24AA014-I/SN equivalent, key selection criteria include low-voltage operation down to 1.7V, I²C bus compatibility with addressable multi-device topology (up to eight devices), hardware WP pin control, and SOIC-8 packaging with Pb-free RoHS compliance.
Technical Context
The 24AA014-I/SN implements a two-wire I²C interface with slave addressing via A0–A2 pins, supporting standard-mode (100 kHz) and fast-mode (400 kHz) timing. Its internal architecture includes an on-chip page buffer (16 bytes), auto-erase logic, and self-timed write cycle with ≤5 ms duration.
Hardware write protection is implemented via the dedicated WP pin: tied to VSS, writes are enabled; tied to VCC, the entire 128-byte array is locked. The device uses Schmitt-trigger inputs on SDA/SCL for noise immunity and supports acknowledge polling to detect write completion without fixed delays.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 1 Kbit (128 × 8-bit array), sufficient for firmware calibration data or device ID storage |
| VCC range | 1.7V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V logic domains without level shifters |
| Max I²C clock | 400 kHz (≥1.8V); 100 kHz (<1.8V) - balances speed and power in battery-powered systems |
| Write endurance | 1,000,000 cycles - supports frequent parameter updates in industrial logging applications |
| Data retention | 200 years at 25°C - ensures long-term reliability in unattended embedded deployments |
| Standby current | 1 µA typical at 5.5V - critical for ultra-low-power wake-on-event designs |
| Page write size | Up to 16 bytes per write cycle - reduces I²C transaction overhead vs. byte-wise writes |
Pinout & Package
24AA014-I/SN is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, 150 mil width, RoHS-compliant and Pb-free. Pin 1 is marked by laser indentation; body marking includes "24AA014I" and date code.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Chip address input | LSB of 3-bit slave address; hardwired to VSS or VCC to configure device address on shared I²C bus |
| A1 | Chip address input | Middle bit of slave address; enables up to eight unique addresses (0x50–0x57) on same bus |
| A2 | Chip address input | MSB of slave address; required for full 8-device addressing; not present in SOT-23 variant |
| VSS | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry; must be connected to system ground plane |
| SDA | Serial data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line requiring external pull-up (2 kΩ for 400 kHz); carries address, data, and ACK/NACK |
| SCL | Serial clock input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all I²C transfers; Schmitt-trigger input improves noise margin |
| WP | Write-protect control | Active-high hardware lock: tied to VCC disables all writes while permitting reads |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 1.7–5.5V supply; powers EEPROM core, interface logic, and HV generator for write operations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-voltage operation | Functional down to 1.7V - supports direct integration with 1.8V microcontrollers and energy-harvesting systems |
| I²C address flexibility | Three hardware address pins (A0–A2) allow eight unique slave addresses on one bus - simplifies multi-sensor node design |
| Page write capability | 16-byte buffer reduces I²C bus occupancy by ~85% vs. sequential byte writes - improves real-time system responsiveness |
| Hardware write protection | Dedicated WP pin provides immediate, glitch-immune lockout of memory writes - prevents accidental corruption during firmware updates |
| High endurance & retention | 1M write cycles and 200-year data retention - validated for use in medical devices and industrial controllers with 10+ year lifespans |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Calibration | Consumer Device Configuration |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Storing factory-calibrated sensor offset/gain coefficients in a temperature/humidity sensor module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile configuration storage accessed once at power-up via I²C; no timing-critical interaction during runtime.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-power background storage; writes occur infrequently and only after explicit user action. Use Value: 1 µA standby current extends battery life in portable variants; 16-byte page write minimizes I²C bus contention during save events. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24LC014-I/SN | Requires minimum 2.5V VCC; identical pinout, memory size, and I²C protocol | Not suitable for 1.8V-only systems; otherwise drop-in for 3.3V/5V designs with no layout change | Select 24LC014-I/SN only if system VCC never falls below 2.5V - avoids unnecessary derating of 24AA014-I/SN's 1.7V capability |
| AT24C01D-SSHM-T | 1 Kbit I²C EEPROM (128 × 8), 1.7–5.5V, but uses different slave address map (0x50–0x57 vs. 0x50–0x57) and lacks WP pin | Requires software write-protection implementation; no hardware lockout for critical configuration blocks | Choose AT24C01D-SSHM-T only when WP functionality is unnecessary and second-source assurance is prioritized over hardware safety |
Compared with 24LC014-I/SN, the 24AA014-I/SN enables lower-voltage operation critical for modern mixed-signal systems, while the AT24C01D-SSHM-T trades hardware write protection for broader distributor availability - making 24AA014-I/SN optimal for safety-aware, low-power designs where guaranteed write lockout is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for the 24AA014-I/SN?
The 24AA014-I/SN operates down to 1.7V, enabling direct use with 1.8V microcontrollers and low-power systems where supply rails dip during battery discharge or cold-cranking. This specification is verified across the full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and distinguishes it from the 24LC014-I/SN, which requires ≥2.5V.
Does the 24AA014-I/SN support multi-device I²C bus configurations?
Yes, the 24AA014-I/SN supports up to eight devices on a single I²C bus using its A0, A1, and A2 address pins to configure unique 7-bit slave addresses (0x50–0x57). Each pin must be hardwired to VSS or VCC; floating connections are not permitted and will cause unpredictable addressing behavior.
How does hardware write protection work on the 24AA014-I/SN?
The 24AA014-I/SN uses a dedicated WP (Write-Protect) pin: when tied to VCC, all write operations to the 128-byte memory array are inhibited, while read operations remain fully functional. When tied to VSS, writes are enabled. This pin provides immediate, hardware-level lockout independent of firmware state.
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the 24AA014-I/SN?
The 24AA014-I/SN supports up to 400 kHz I²C clock frequency when VCC is ≥1.8V. At VCC < 1.8V, the maximum clock rate is limited to 100 kHz. These timing specifications are guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range and include setup/hold margins for reliable communication.
Can the 24AA014-I/SN be used in automotive applications?
The 24AA014-I/SN is rated for industrial temperature (–40°C to +85°C), not automotive grade (–40°C to +125°C). For automotive body control modules or infotainment systems requiring extended temperature operation, Microchip's 24AA014-E/SN (automotive-grade variant) must be selected instead - it shares identical functionality but is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 3.
