Product details
Overview
24AA014T-I/SN from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 1 Kbit (128 × 8) I²C-compatible serial EEPROM with single-supply operation down to 1.7V, hardware write protection, and 16-byte page write capability. It supports up to 400 kHz clock frequency at VCC ≥ 1.8V and delivers typical active current of 1 mA and standby current of 1 µA at 5.5V - enabling low-power embedded data logging in industrial sensor nodes.
For engineers reviewing the 24AA014T-I/SN datasheet, 24AA014T-I/SN pinout, 24AA014T-I/SN application, or 24AA014T-I/SN equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.7V–5.5V operating range, 8-lead SOIC package with exposed pad (T/SN suffix), industrial temperature grade (−40°C to +85°C), and hardware WP pin for non-volatile memory protection without firmware overhead.
Technical Context
The 24AA014T-I/SN implements a standard two-wire I²C interface with Schmitt-trigger inputs on SDA and SCL, supporting both 100 kHz (VCC < 2.5V) and 400 kHz (VCC ≥ 1.8V) operation. Its internal address counter enables sequential reads across the full 128-byte array with automatic rollover from 0x7F to 0x00.
Write operations use an on-chip 16-byte page buffer with self-timed erase-and-write cycles completing in ≤5 ms. Hardware write protection is enforced via the dedicated WP pin - tied to VSS for enable, VCC for full-array lockout - independent of I²C command execution.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 1 Kbit (128 × 8-bit), organized as single block - simplifies address management and eliminates bank switching logic. |
| Supply voltage | 1.7V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V microcontrollers without level shifters. |
| Interface | I²C-compatible 2-wire bus with 7-bit slave address (1010xxxR/W) - integrates into existing I²C systems without protocol translation. |
| Write endurance | 1,000,000 erase/write cycles - supports frequent calibration storage or event logging in field-deployed equipment. |
| Data retention | >200 years at +25°C - ensures long-term validity of stored configuration or calibration data without refresh. |
| Write cycle time | ≤5 ms max (byte or page) - allows deterministic timing budgeting for firmware write-handling and ACK polling. |
| ESD protection | >4,000V HBM - enhances robustness in handling-sensitive industrial assembly and field service environments. |
Pinout & Package
24AA014T-I/SN is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC package (3.90 mm wide, "SN" suffix) with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is laser-marked; the exposed pad may be connected to VSS or left floating per PCB layout requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Chip address input | LSB of 3-bit hardware slave address - sets device address bits A0–A2 for multi-drop I²C bus (up to 8 devices). |
| A1 | Chip address input | Middle bit of 3-bit hardware slave address - enables unique addressing when multiple 24AA014T-I/SN share one bus. |
| A2 | Chip address input | MSB of 3-bit hardware slave address - required for contiguous 8 Kbit expansion across eight devices. |
| VSS | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry and I/O - must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| SDA | Serial data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional bus line - requires external pull-up resistor (2 kΩ for 400 kHz, 10 kΩ for 100 kHz). |
| SCL | Serial clock input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all data transfers - determines maximum I²C throughput and timing margins. |
| WP | Write-protect control | Hardware lockout: tied to VCC disables all writes while preserving read access - no firmware dependency. |
| VCC | Power supply | Primary power input (1.7–5.5V) - powers EEPROM core, interface logic, and high-voltage generator for write/erase. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-voltage operation | Functional down to 1.7V - enables direct integration with battery-backed or energy-harvesting systems. |
| Page write buffer | 16-byte internal buffer - reduces I²C transaction count by up to 16× versus byte-write, improving bus efficiency. |
| Hardware write protection | Dedicated WP pin - prevents accidental or malicious overwrites without software intervention or register access. |
| Extended temperature range | Industrial grade (−40°C to +85°C) - qualified for deployment in factory automation, HVAC, and outdoor metering. |
| Pb-free & RoHS compliant | Matte tin (Sn) lead finish - meets global environmental compliance requirements for commercial and industrial manufacturing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24LC014T-I/SN | Requires minimum 2.5V VCC; otherwise identical pinout, timing, and memory map. | Not suitable for 1.8V-only systems; compatible where host operates ≥2.5V. | Select only if system VCC never drops below 2.5V - avoids potential undervoltage reset during brownout. |
| AT24C01D-SSHM-T | 1.7V–5.5V operation, same 1 Kbit density, but uses different I²C address scheme (1010xxx) and lacks hardware WP pin. | Requires software-controlled write protection; no physical lockout against accidental writes. | Choose when board space permits software-based protection and legacy AT24C-series compatibility is required. |
Compared with 24LC014T-I/SN, the 24AA014T-I/SN supports lower-voltage operation critical for modern ultra-low-power designs; versus AT24C01D-SSHM-T, it provides hardware-level write security essential for safety-critical configuration storage.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for the 24AA014T-I/SN?
The 24AA014T-I/SN operates down to 1.7V, making it compatible with 1.8V logic systems and battery-powered applications where supply voltage may dip during peak load. This is a key differentiator from the 24LC014 series, which requires a minimum of 2.5V. The 24AA014T-I/SN maintains full I²C functionality-including 400 kHz operation-at 1.8V and above.
Does the 24AA014T-I/SN have hardware write protection?
Yes, the 24AA014T-I/SN includes a dedicated Write-Protect (WP) pin that provides hardware-level lockout of the entire memory array when pulled high to VCC. This feature operates independently of I²C commands and prevents accidental or malicious writes without requiring firmware intervention. The 24AA014T-I/SN retains full read capability even when WP is asserted.
What package type does the 24AA014T-I/SN use?
The 24AA014T-I/SN uses an 8-lead SOIC package (3.90 mm wide) with the "SN" suffix designation and an exposed thermal pad. The "T" in the part number indicates tape-and-reel packaging, and "I" denotes industrial temperature grade (−40°C to +85°C). Pin 1 is laser-marked for orientation identification on the top surface.
How many devices can share the same I²C bus with the 24AA014T-I/SN?
Up to eight 24AA014T-I/SN devices can be connected to a single I²C bus using the A0, A1, and A2 address pins to configure unique 3-bit hardware addresses. Each device responds only to its assigned 7-bit slave address (1010xxxR/W), enabling scalable memory expansion up to 8 Kbits without additional address decoding logic.
What is the maximum write cycle time for the 24AA014T-I/SN?
The maximum write cycle time for the 24AA014T-I/SN is 5 ms for both byte and page writes. This value is guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range and supply voltage (1.7V–5.5V). During this period, the device does not acknowledge I²C commands - a behavior leveraged in ACK polling to detect write completion without fixed delays.
