Product details
Overview
24CSM01T-I/SM from Microchip Technology is a 1-Mbit I²C serial EEPROM with integrated security register, ECC logic, and high-speed 3.4 MHz interface. It features a factory-programmed 128-bit unique serial number, user-lockable 256-byte ID page, hardware/software write protection, and operates from 1.7V to 5.5V across –40°C to +85°C. Used in automotive infotainment configuration storage and industrial sensor calibration data retention.
For engineers reviewing the 24CSM01T-I/SM datasheet, 24CSM01T-I/SM pinout, 24CSM01T-I/SM application, or 24CSM01T-I/SM equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, built-in ECC for bit-error correction, dual-zone write protection (hardware WP pin + software-configurable 128-Kbit zones), 1 µA standby current at 5.5V, and support for I²C Manufacturer ID identification.
Technical Context
The 24CSM01T-I/SM implements a two-wire I²C interface with full High-Speed mode (3.4 MHz) compliance, Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity, and slope-controlled outputs to suppress ground bounce. Its memory is organized as 512 pages × 256 bytes (131,072 × 8 bits), with separate 4-Kbit security register space containing read-only serial number and lockable user ID page.
It includes a programmable Configuration register enabling enhanced software write protection per eight independent 128-Kbit zones, which can be permanently locked. Built-in ECC corrects single-bit errors within any four-byte read window and provides an Error Correction State (ECS) latch via the Configuration register for system-level error monitoring.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8 bits), organized as 512 pages of 256 bytes - enables efficient bulk writes without crossing page boundaries. |
| I²C Speed | Up to 3.4 MHz (High-Speed mode), plus 1 MHz / 400 kHz / 100 kHz - supports fast firmware updates and real-time parameter logging. |
| Write Cycle Time | ≤5 ms max self-timed byte/page write - ensures predictable timing for host firmware timeout handling. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.7V to 5.5V - compatible with both low-voltage microcontrollers and legacy 5V systems without level shifting. |
| Endurance & Retention | 1,000,000 write cycles; >200 years data retention at 55°C - suitable for mission-critical calibration and serial number storage. |

Pinout & Package
24CSM01T-I/SM is packaged in an 8-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) with wettable flank terminations for automated optical inspection (AOI) and improved solder joint reliability. Pin 1 is NC (No Connect); pins A1 and A2 set hardware I²C address; VSS and VCC provide power; SDA and SCL form the bidirectional I²C bus; WP enables hardware write protection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| NC | No Connect | Unused pin; must remain unconnected - no internal function or electrical loading. |
| A1, A2 | Hardware Address Inputs | Set two LSBs of 7-bit I²C client address; hardwire to VSS/VCC to support up to four devices on same bus. |
| VSS | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry and I/O; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| SDA | Serial Data Line | Bidirectional open-drain I²C data line; requires external pull-up resistor (330Ω for 3.4 MHz). |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Input-only I²C clock line; synchronized with SDA transitions; slope-controlled to reduce EMI. |
| WP | Write-Protect Control | Active-high hardware lock: tied to VCC disables all writes to memory and security register; tied to VSS enables writes. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 1.7V–5.5V supply input; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required near pin for stable operation during write cycles. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24CS128-SSHL-T | 128-Kbit capacity; no security register or ECC; 1 MHz max I²C speed; same SOIC-8 package. | Lacks 128-bit serial number, ECC, and enhanced software protection - insufficient for automotive or secure identity use cases. | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive applications requiring basic EEPROM functionality without security or high-speed operation. |
| BR24G128FJ-3GE2 | 128-Kbit; built-in ECC; 1 MHz I²C; 1.7–5.5V; SOIJ-8 package; no security register or serial number. | Provides ECC but omits factory-programmed serial number and lockable ID page - cannot replace 24CSM01T-I/SM in secure device identity applications. | Choose when ECC is mandatory but serial number uniqueness and programmable ID storage are not required. |
Compared with AT24CS128-SSHL-T and BR24G128FJ-3GE2, the 24CSM01T-I/SM delivers uniquely integrated security (128-bit serial number + lockable ID page), higher 3.4 MHz I²C bandwidth, and per-zone software write protection - making it the only qualified option for AEC-Q100-compliant automotive and secure industrial identity storage.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the 24CSM01T-I/SM?
The 24CSM01T-I/SM supports up to 3.4 MHz in High-Speed mode when VCC ≥2.5V and operating in Industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). At lower voltages (1.7V–2.5V) or Extended temperature range, maximum clock frequency is 1 MHz. This enables faster parameter updates compared to standard 400 kHz EEPROMs while maintaining compatibility with legacy I²C controllers.
Does the 24CSM01T-I/SM require external pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL lines?
Yes, the 24CSM01T-I/SM requires external pull-up resistors on both SDA and SCL lines because it uses open-drain I²C signaling. Recommended values are 330Ω for 3.4 MHz operation, 2 kΩ for 1 MHz/400 kHz, and 10 kΩ for 100 kHz - selected based on bus capacitance and desired rise time. The 24CSM01T-I/SM itself does not integrate pull-ups.
How is the 128-bit serial number in the 24CSM01T-I/SM used and accessed?
The 128-bit serial number in the 24CSM01T-I/SM is factory-programmed, globally unique, and stored in the first 16 bytes of the read-only portion of the Security register (address 0800h–080Fh). It is accessed by sending a valid device address byte with bits 7–4 = 1011 (Security register access), followed by word address bytes specifying A15=0 and A11–A10=10b. No write capability exists for this field.
Can the 24CSM01T-I/SM be used in automotive applications?
Yes, the 24CSM01T-I/SM is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 2) and rated for –40°C to +105°C ambient operation, making it suitable for automotive infotainment, body control modules, and ADAS subsystems. Its built-in ECC, >200-year data retention, and hardware/software write protection meet stringent automotive reliability and functional safety requirements.
What happens if the WP pin is left floating on the 24CSM01T-I/SM?
The WP pin on the 24CSM01T-I/SM must be actively driven to either VCC or VSS - it is not internally biased and will not default to a defined logic level. If left floating, write protection behavior is undefined and may result in intermittent or unintended write inhibition. For guaranteed full-array protection, tie WP to VCC; for full write enable, tie to VSS.
