Product details
Overview
24AA024HT-I/MS from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 2 Kbit I²C-compatible serial EEPROM organized as 256 × 8-bit memory, operating from 1.7V to 5.5V with industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It features hardware write protection for the upper half-array (80h–FFh), 16-byte page write buffer, and Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity. It is used in embedded systems for storing calibration data, configuration settings, and device identifiers.
For engineers reviewing the 24AA024HT-I/MS datasheet, 24AA024HT-I/MS pinout, 24AA024HT-I/MS application, or 24AA024HT-I/MS equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to MSOP-8, I²C timing compliance (100/400 kHz), endurance (1 million cycles), and real-world use context - all confirmed from Microchip's DS22102A datasheet.
Technical Context
The 24AA024HT-I/MS implements a standard two-wire I²C slave interface with fixed 7-bit address prefix '1010' and user-configurable A0–A2 pins enabling up to eight devices on one bus. Its internal address pointer supports current-address, random, and sequential read modes, and auto-increments during multi-byte reads.
Write operations include byte and page modes (up to 16 bytes per page), with self-timed internal erase/write cycles (max 5 ms) and acknowledge polling support. Hardware write protection is controlled solely by the WP pin state - tied to VCC to lock addresses 80h–FFh, or VSS to enable full-array writes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 2 Kbit (256 × 8-bit), single-block organization - simplifies addressing and eliminates bank-switching logic. |
| Supply Voltage | 1.7V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with low-voltage MCUs (e.g., 1.8V I/O domains) without level shifters. |
| I²C Clock Rate | Up to 400 kHz at VCC ≥ 1.8V - supports standard-mode I²C timing with compatible rise/fall time constraints (TR/TF ≤ 300 ns). |
| Write Endurance | 1 million erase/write cycles - suitable for frequent logging or field-updatable parameter storage. |
| Data Retention | 200 years at +25°C - ensures long-term reliability of stored calibration or security keys across product lifetime. |
| Standby Current | Max 1 μA at VCC = 5.5V - critical for battery-powered IoT nodes and energy-harvesting applications. |
| Page Write Buffer | 16 bytes - reduces I²C transaction count and host CPU overhead when updating contiguous configuration blocks. |
Pinout & Package
24AA024HT-I/MS is housed in an 8-pin MSOP package (3.0 mm × 3.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining hand-solderability and thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Chip Select Input | User-configurable address bit; sets bit A0 of 7-bit slave address (1010xxx) - enables up to eight devices on same I²C bus. |
| A1 | Chip Select Input | User-configurable address bit; sets bit A1 of slave address - required for multi-device bus topology and contiguous memory expansion. |
| A2 | Chip Select Input | User-configurable address bit; sets bit A2 of slave address - determines unique I²C address (e.g., 0xA0–0xA7) per device. |
| VSS | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry; must be connected to system ground plane with low-impedance trace. |
| SDA | Serial Data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line; requires external pull-up resistor (2–10 kΩ); carries address, command, and data bits per I²C protocol. |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock signal; synchronizes all data transfers; Schmitt-trigger input rejects noise below hysteresis threshold (≥0.05×VCC). |
| WP | Hardware Write-Protect | Active-high enable: tie to VCC to lock upper half-array (80h–FFh); tie to VSS for full write access - no software overhead required. |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single supply input (1.7–5.5V); powers EEPROM core, interface logic, and HV generator for write/erase operations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-Voltage Operation | Functional down to 1.7V - eliminates need for voltage regulators in 1.8V/2.5V microcontroller systems. |
| Noise Immunity | Schmitt-trigger inputs + 50 ns spike suppression on SDA/SCL - prevents false Start/Stop detection on electrically noisy boards. |
| Output Slope Control | Controlled SDA fall time - suppresses ground bounce and EMI during high-speed transitions. |
| Half-Array Write Protection | Hardware-enforced lock on addresses 80h–FFh - protects critical firmware parameters without firmware intervention. |
| Factory Programming | QTP (Quadrant Time Programming) option available - enables pre-programming of MAC addresses or security keys before board assembly. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Calibration | Medical Device Configuration |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Storing factory-calibrated sensor offset/gain coefficients and temperature compensation tables in smart pressure transmitters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile configuration storage accessed once at power-up via I²C; no timing-critical interaction during runtime.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24LC024HT-I/MS | Requires minimum 2.5V VCC; supports 1 MHz I²C clock; identical pinout and memory map. | Not suitable for sub-2.5V systems; preferred where higher-speed I²C bursts improve system responsiveness. | Select only if host MCU operates ≥2.5V and requires >400 kHz I²C throughput. |
| AT24C02-MAHM-T | Same 2 Kbit capacity and MSOP-8 package; supports 1.7V–5.5V but lacks half-array hardware write protection. | Relies on software-based locking; less secure for critical configuration blocks requiring tamper resistance. | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs need for hardware-level write protection. |
Compared with 24AA024HT-I/MS, the 24LC024HT-I/MS offers faster I²C speed at higher voltage, while the AT24C02-MAHM-T trades hardware write protection for broader vendor availability - making 24AA024HT-I/MS optimal for low-voltage, safety-critical, or tamper-resistant designs.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for the 24AA024HT-I/MS?
The 24AA024HT-I/MS operates down to 1.7V, enabling direct integration with 1.8V microcontrollers and low-power sensor nodes without level-shifting circuitry. This specification is guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), as confirmed in Microchip's DS22102A datasheet Section 1.0.
Does the 24AA024HT-I/MS support standard I²C timing at 400 kHz?
Yes, the 24AA024HT-I/MS fully complies with standard-mode I²C timing at 400 kHz when VCC ≥ 1.8V, including validated setup/hold times (e.g., TSU:DAT ≥ 100 ns) and rise/fall time limits (TR/TF ≤ 300 ns). These values are explicitly listed in Table 1-2 of the DS22102A datasheet.
How does hardware write protection work on the 24AA024HT-I/MS?
The 24AA024HT-I/MS uses the WP pin to enable hardware write protection: when tied to VCC, addresses 80h–FFh (upper 128 bytes) are locked against writes; tying WP to VSS disables protection. This is implemented entirely in silicon - no firmware or command sequence is required, as detailed in Section 2.4 and 6.3 of DS22102A.
What package type is used for the 24AA024HT-I/MS?
The 24AA024HT-I/MS is packaged in an 8-pin MSOP (Mini Small Outline Package) with 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm body and 0.65 mm lead pitch. Pinout matches standard MSOP-8 footprints, and mechanical dimensions are specified in DS22102A Page 14–15 under "8-Lead MSOP".
Can multiple 24AA024HT-I/MS devices share the same I²C bus?
Yes - up to eight 24AA024HT-I/MS devices can coexist on one I²C bus using the A0, A1, and A2 pins to configure unique 7-bit slave addresses (1010xxx). Each pin must be hardwired to VSS or VCC; floating connections are not permitted, as stated in Section 2.3 of DS22102A.
