Product details
Overview
24CSM01T-I/ST from Microchip Technology is a 1-Mbit I²C serial EEPROM with integrated security register, ECC error correction, and high-speed 3.4 MHz interface. It operates from 1.7V to 5.5V, supports byte/page writes (up to 256 bytes), and features factory-programmed 128-bit serial number and user-lockable 256-byte ID page. Used in automotive infotainment control modules for firmware versioning and calibration storage.
For engineers reviewing the 24CSM01T-I/ST datasheet, 24CSM01T-I/ST pinout, 24CSM01T-I/ST application, or 24CSM01T-I/ST equivalent, key selection criteria include I²C high-speed mode timing compliance, hardware/software write protection flexibility, ECC-enabled reliability for safety-critical data, and AEC-Q100 qualification for under-hood deployment.
Technical Context
The 24CSM01T-I/ST implements a dual-register architecture: a 1-Mbit main EEPROM array organized as 512 × 256-byte pages, and a separate 4-Kbit security register split into read-only 128-bit serial number (0800h–080Fh) and user-programmable lockable ID page (0900h–090Fh). Its I²C interface supports four device address modes - standard EEPROM access, security register access, configuration register access, and manufacturer ID read - each requiring distinct 7-bit address byte formats and word address bit patterns.
Write protection is configurable via hardware (WP pin) or software (Configuration register), enabling zone-level locking of eight independent 128-Kbit memory regions. Built-in ECC corrects single-bit errors within any 4-byte read window and latches error occurrence status in the Configuration register's Error Correction State (ECS) bit, providing deterministic fault detection without host intervention.

Pinout & Package
24CSM01T-I/ST is packaged in an 8-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) with wettable flank leads, optimized for automated optical inspection (AOI) and solder joint reliability in automotive PCB assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: NC | No Connect | Unused pad; must remain unconnected to avoid parasitic coupling or latch-up risk. |
| 2: A1 | Hardware Address Input | Configures bit A1 of 7-bit I²C client address; tied to VSS or VCC to select one of four devices on shared bus. |

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 (1/8 size), no built-in ECC, no security register, only 1 MHz I²C max speed | Lacks serial number, ID page, and ECC - unsuitable for automotive or medical audit logging | Select only for cost-sensitive consumer applications where data integrity and traceability are non-critical |
| BR24G128FJ-WE2 | 128 Kbit, supports 1 MHz I²C, includes 64-byte security register but no factory serial number or ECC | Missing 128-bit global uniqueness and error correction - cannot meet AEC-Q100 functional safety requirements | Use only in industrial temperature-range applications where full automotive qualification is not mandated |
Compared with AT24CS128-SSHL-T and BR24G128FJ-WE2, the 24CSM01T-I/ST delivers 8× more memory, deterministic ECC error handling, globally unique serialization, and AEC-Q100 certification - making it the sole option for ASIL-B-compliant automotive firmware storage and FDA-regulated medical device logging.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the 24CSM01T-I/ST?
The 24CSM01T-I/ST supports up to 3.4 MHz in High-Speed mode when operating at VCC ≥ 2.5 V and within the industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). At lower voltages (1.7–2.5 V) or extended temperature (–40°C to +125°C), the maximum clock frequency is limited to 1 MHz. This dual-speed capability allows designers to optimize between throughput and power consumption based on system constraints.
How does the 24CSM01T-I/ST implement error correction, and what does the ECS latch indicate?
The 24CSM01T-I/ST uses built-in ECC logic that corrects up to one bit error within any 4-byte read window. When ECC correction is invoked during a read operation, the Error Correction State (ECS) latch in the Configuration register is set to '1' and remains asserted until cleared by a host write to the register. This provides a hardware-verified flag for diagnostics without requiring software parity checks or CRC overhead.
Can the factory-programmed 128-bit serial number in the 24CSM01T-I/ST be overwritten or modified?
No - the 128-bit serial number in the 24CSM01T-I/ST is factory-programmed into the Security register at wafer test and is permanently read-only. It occupies addresses 0800h–080Fh and cannot be altered, erased, or reprogrammed by any command sequence. This ensures cryptographic binding of the device identity to stored data across its entire operational lifetime.
What is the function of the WP pin on the 24CSM01T-I/ST, and how does it interact with software write protection?
The WP (Write-Protect) pin on the 24CSM01T-I/ST provides hardware-level write inhibition when tied to VCC. However, when Enhanced Software Write Protection is enabled via the Configuration register, the WP pin is ignored - protection is then enforced solely by software-configured zone locks. This dual-mode architecture allows legacy designs to retain hardware protection while new designs leverage flexible, field-updatable software policies.
Is the 24CSM01T-I/ST pin-compatible with other Microchip serial EEPROMs such as the 24AA1025 or 24LC1025?
No - the 24CSM01T-I/ST is not pin-compatible with 24AA1025 or 24LC1025. While all three use 8-lead SOIC packages, the 24CSM01T-I/ST assigns Pin 1 as NC (No Connect), whereas 24AA1025/24LC1025 use Pin 1 as A0 address input. Additionally, the 24CSM01T-I/ST's Security register addressing, ECC behavior, and Configuration register structure require distinct firmware initialization sequences not present in legacy parts.
