Product details
Overview
24CSM01T-I/SN 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, 256-byte user-lockable ID page, hardware write-protect pin, and operates across 1.7V–5.5V. Used in automotive infotainment control modules for storing calibration data and secure device identity.
For engineers reviewing the 24CSM01T-I/SN datasheet, 24CSM01T-I/SN pinout, 24CSM01T-I/SN application, or 24CSM01T-I/SN equivalent, key selection considerations include its AEC-Q100 qualification, dual-mode write protection (hardware WP pin + software-configurable zone lock), built-in ECC correction for four-byte reads, and support for up to eight devices on a shared I²C bus with configurable 7-bit client addressing via A1/A2 pins.
Technical Context
The 24CSM01T-I/SN implements a two-wire I²C interface with full High-Speed mode (3.4 MHz) compliance, Schmitt-trigger inputs, and slope-controlled outputs to suppress ground bounce. Its memory architecture comprises a 131,072 × 8-bit main array plus a separate 4-Kbit security register split into read-only 128-bit serial number and user-programmable/lockable 256-byte ID page.
Device operation is governed by three dedicated registers: Configuration register (enables enhanced software write protection per 128-Kbit zone and locks after programming), Security register (supports irreversible ID page locking), and Manufacturer ID register (24-bit I²C-compliant identifier). Write cycles are self-timed (≤5 ms), and ECC corrects single-bit errors within any four-byte read window, with an Error Correction State (ECS) latch flag in the Configuration register.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
24CSM01T-I/SN is packaged in 8-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) with wettable flank leads, compliant with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3. The package supports automated optical inspection (AOI) and provides robust solder joint reliability for automotive reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Hardware Address Input | Configures bit 1 of 7-bit I²C client address; must be hardwired to VSS or VCC to select one of four possible addresses on shared bus. |
| A2 | Hardware Address Input | Configures bit 2 of 7-bit I²C client address; used with A1 to enable up to four 24CSM01T-I/SN devices on same I²C bus. |
| VSS | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| SDA | Serial Data Line | Open-drain bidirectional I²C data line; requires external pull-up resistor (330 Ω for 3.4 MHz, 2 kΩ for 1 MHz). |
| SCL | Serial Clock Line | Input-only I²C clock line; driven by host MCU; slope control minimizes ground bounce during transitions. |
| WP | Write-Protect Control | Active-high hardware lock: tied to VCC disables all writes to main array and security register; ignored in enhanced software protection mode. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 1.7V–5.5V supply input; includes internal POR circuit requiring ≥100 µs stabilization before first command. |

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, no ECC, max 1 MHz I²C, -40°C to +85°C | Lacks 128-bit serial number and lockable ID page; insufficient for secure identity or calibration binding | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications where security and ECC are unnecessary. |
| BR24G128FJ-WE2 | 128-Kbit, built-in ECC, 1.7–5.5V, -40°C to +105°C, but no factory serial number or user-lockable ID page | Provides ECC and extended temperature but cannot replace 24CSM01T-I/SN's secure identity functions | Use when ECC and AEC-Q100 are required but device serialization is handled externally. |
Compared with AT24CS128-SSHL-T and BR24G128FJ-WE2, the 24CSM01T-I/SN uniquely combines 1-Mbit density, AEC-Q100 qualification, factory-serialized identity, lockable security register, and on-die ECC - making it the only option for automotive systems requiring both high-capacity configuration storage and hardware-enforced device authenticity.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the 24CSM01T-I/SN?
The 24CSM01T-I/SN supports High-Speed mode I²C up to 3.4 MHz when operating at VCC ≥ 2.5V and within the industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). At lower voltages (1.7V–2.5V) or extended temperature, the maximum clock frequency is 1 MHz. This dual-speed capability allows optimization for speed in 3.3V/5V systems or power efficiency in 1.8V battery-backed applications. All timing parameters are fully specified in DS20006781D.
Does the 24CSM01T-I/SN include error correction, and how does it function?
Yes, the 24CSM01T-I/SN includes built-in Error Correction Code (ECC) logic that corrects up to one incorrectly read bit within any four-byte read window. When ECC correction is invoked, the Error Correction State (ECS) latch in the Configuration register is set and remains asserted until cleared by software. This hardware-level correction eliminates the need for host-side CRC checks or retry logic, improving system robustness in electrically noisy automotive environments where the 24CSM01T-I/SN is commonly deployed.
How is the 128-bit serial number implemented in the 24CSM01T-I/SN?
Each 24CSM01T-I/SN device contains a factory-programmed, globally unique 128-bit serial number stored in the first 16 bytes (0800h–080Fh) of its security register. This value is laser-trimmed during wafer test and is guaranteed unique across the entire CS-series EEPROM family. It is read-only and cannot be altered, erased, or reprogrammed - providing a tamper-proof hardware identity for device binding, anti-counterfeiting, and secure provisioning workflows using the 24CSM01T-I/SN.
Can the 24CSM01T-I/SN be used in systems requiring AEC-Q100 compliance?
Yes, the 24CSM01T-I/SN is explicitly AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 2, –40°C to +105°C ambient) and rated for industrial temperature (–40°C to +85°C) operation. Its qualification includes stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity bias, ESD, and mechanical shock - meeting automotive electronic component reliability requirements. The "I" suffix in 24CSM01T-I/SN denotes industrial temperature grade, and the device is approved for use in infotainment, ADAS, and telematics subsystems where AEC-Q100 compliance is mandatory.
What write protection mechanisms does the 24CSM01T-I/SN provide?
The 24CSM01T-I/SN offers two independent write protection mechanisms: (1) Hardware protection via the WP pin - tying WP to VCC disables all writes to both main memory and security register; (2) Enhanced software protection via the Configuration register - allows locking individual 128-Kbit zones and permanently disabling further changes to the Configuration register itself. These mechanisms can be used separately or together, giving designers flexibility to protect calibration data, keys, or serial numbers at different stages of the product lifecycle using the 24CSM01T-I/SN.
