Product details
Overview
24AA025UIDT-I/SN from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 2 Kbit I²C-compatible serial EEPROM with factory-programmed, globally unique 32-bit serial ID stored in write-protected memory (0xFC–0xFF). It operates from 1.7V to 5.5V, supports 400 kHz clock (100 kHz below 2.5V), features 16-byte page write buffer, and delivers ≤1 µA standby current. It serves as secure device identity storage in embedded systems requiring tamper-resistant hardware IDs.
For engineers reviewing the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN datasheet, 24AA025UIDT-I/SN pinout, 24AA025UIDT-I/SN application, or 24AA025UIDT-I/SN equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed uniqueness of factory-programmed UID, industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), SOT-23-6 package compatibility, cascading capability via A0/A1 address pins, and write-protection of upper memory block (0x80–0xFF).
Technical Context
The 24AA025UIDT-I/SN implements a two-wire I²C slave interface with Schmitt-trigger inputs and slope-controlled outputs to suppress noise and eliminate ground bounce. Its internal address pointer auto-increments during sequential reads, enabling full 256-byte memory access without re-addressing.
It uses on-chip high-voltage generation for EEPROM programming and includes a VCC threshold detector that disables erase/write logic below 1.5V. The device supports byte and page write modes, with self-timed write cycles (max 5 ms) and acknowledge polling for bus efficiency.

Pinout & Package
24AA025UIDT-I/SN is supplied in a RoHS-compliant 6-lead SOT-23 package (3.0 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.3 mm body, 0.95 mm pitch). Pin 1 is laser-marked; pin 1 location is indicated by dot or bevel. No NC pins are internally connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply input | Accepts 1.7–5.5V; powers internal logic and EEPROM array; requires local decoupling (0.1 µF) |
| SCL | Serial clock input | Open-drain compatible; master-generated clock synchronizes all I²C transfers |
| SDA | Serial data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line; requires external pull-up (2 kΩ typical for 400 kHz) |
| VSS | Ground reference | Return path for VCC and signal currents; must be low-impedance connection to system GND |
| A0 | Chip address input | LSB of 3-bit slave address; sets bit 0 of control byte; tied to VSS or VCC for multi-device bus addressing |
| A1 | Chip address input | Bit 1 of slave address; enables up to four devices on same bus in SOT-23 package (A2 not bonded) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Preprogrammed UID | 32-bit globally unique identifier factory-written and permanently write-protected - eliminates need for post-manufacture provisioning |
| Cascadable addressing | A0/A1 pins enable up to four 24AA025UIDT-I/SN devices on one I²C bus - simplifies multi-node identity management |
| Noise-immune interface | Schmitt-trigger inputs + 50 ns input filter + controlled output slew rate - ensures reliable operation in electrically noisy environments |
| Low-power operation | 1 µA max standby current and 1 mA max active read current - extends battery life in portable and energy-constrained systems |
| Hardware write protection | Upper half (0x80–0xFF) including UID block is permanently locked - prevents accidental or malicious overwrite of identity data |
| Extended serial number support | Manufacturer code (0xFA = 0x29) and device ID (0xFB = 0x41) enable software-padded extensions to 48/64/128/256-bit IDs - meets diverse security protocol requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM with unique ID applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24AA02E48T-I/OT | Same 2 Kbit capacity and UID, but in 5-lead SOT-23; lacks A0/A1 pins - no cascading support | Single-device systems where space is critical and multi-drop bus not required | Select when footprint minimization outweighs address flexibility; verify mechanical fit for 5-pin vs. 6-pin SOT-23 |
| AT24MAC402-MAHM-T | Microchip-licensed MAC address + UID; 4-Kbit density; supports 1-MHz I²C; different UID format (EUI-48) | Networked devices requiring IEEE 802 MAC address alongside unique ID | Choose when Ethernet/Wi-Fi MAC is needed; note different memory map and write-protection scheme |
Compared with 24AA025UIDT-I/SN, the 24AA02E48T-I/OT sacrifices address scalability for smaller footprint, while the AT24MAC402-MAHM-T adds MAC functionality at higher cost and complexity - 24AA025UIDT-I/SN remains optimal for pure, cascaded UID storage in space-constrained industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the exact memory organization of the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN?
The 24AA025UIDT-I/SN contains 256 bytes (2 Kbit) of EEPROM, split into two 128-byte blocks. The upper block (0x80–0xFF) is write-protected and holds the 32-bit UID (0xFC–0xFF), manufacturer code (0xFA), and device ID (0xFB). The lower block (0x00–0x7F) is user-programmable with full read/write access. This layout ensures identity integrity while preserving application storage space.
Is the 32-bit UID truly unique across all units of 24AA025UIDT-I/SN?
Yes - the 32-bit serial number in each 24AA025UIDT-I/SN is globally unique across the entire Microchip UID-family EEPROM portfolio. It is programmed during wafer sort using a deterministic, collision-free algorithm and verified prior to shipment. No two 24AA025UIDT-I/SN devices share the same UID value.
Can the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN be used in a multi-device I²C bus configuration?
Yes - the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN supports cascading via its A0 and A1 address pins, allowing up to four devices on the same I²C bus in the SOT-23-6 package. Each device responds only when its A0/A1 combination matches the corresponding bits in the master's control byte, enabling independent UID access without bus contention.
What is the purpose of the write-protection on the upper memory block of the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN?
The upper memory block (0x80–0xFF) of the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN is permanently write-protected to safeguard the factory-programmed UID, manufacturer code, and device ID. This hardware-enforced lock prevents accidental or malicious overwrite during field operation, ensuring the device identity remains immutable throughout its operational lifetime.
Does the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN support extended serial number lengths beyond 32 bits?
Yes - the 24AA025UIDT-I/SN supports software-extended serial numbers up to 256 bits by reading additional bytes (e.g., 0xF0–0xFF for 128-bit) alongside the base 32-bit UID. Manufacturer code (0xFA = 0x29) and device ID (0xFB = 0x41) provide fixed prefixes, enabling deterministic padding while preserving uniqueness across extended formats.
