Product details
Overview
24LC02BT-I/MNY from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 2-Kbit I²C-compatible serial EEPROM organized as 256 × 8-bit memory with hardware write-protection, 400 kHz max clock frequency, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It operates from 2.5V to 5.5V, supports 8-byte page writes, and is used for configuration storage in embedded controllers and sensor modules.
For engineers reviewing the 24LC02BT-I/MNY datasheet, 24LC02BT-I/MNY pinout, 24LC02BT-I/MNY application, or 24LC02BT-I/MNY equivalent, key selection criteria include VCC range (2.5–5.5V), I²C timing compliance at 400 kHz, WP pin functionality, endurance (>1M cycles), and MNY package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 24LC02BT-I/MNY implements a two-wire I²C interface with Schmitt-trigger inputs and slope-controlled outputs to suppress noise and eliminate ground bounce. Its internal address pointer enables current-address, random, and sequential read modes without external address latching.
Write operations are self-timed with a maximum 5 ms cycle time; page writes buffer up to 8 bytes before initiating erase/write. The device uses an open-drain SDA bus requiring external pull-up resistors and supports acknowledge polling to detect write completion without fixed delays.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 2 Kbit (256 × 8-bit) - fits small firmware patches, calibration data, or device ID storage |
| VCC Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - compatible with 3.3V and 5V logic systems; excludes sub-2.5V operation |
| Max Clock Frequency | 400 kHz - supports standard-mode I²C; not rated for fast-mode (1 MHz) or low-voltage (<2.5V) operation |
| Page Write Buffer | 8 bytes - enables efficient burst writes within a single physical page boundary (0x00–0x07, 0x08–0x0F, etc.) |
| Endurance | 1,000,000 erase/write cycles - suitable for frequent logging or parameter updates in industrial control |
| Data Retention | 200 years - ensures long-term reliability of stored configuration or calibration values |
| Standby Current | 1 µA (I-temp.) - minimizes power draw in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications |
Pinout & Package
24LC02BT-I/MNY is supplied in an 8-lead UDFN (Wettable Flanks) package, 2 mm × 3 mm, with exposed pad. Pin 1 is A0 (NC), Pin 2 is A1 (NC), Pin 3 is A2 (NC), Pin 4 is VSS, Pin 5 is SDA, Pin 6 is SCL, Pin 7 is WP, and Pin 8 is VCC. The A0–A2 pins are unconnected internally and may be left floating or tied to VSS/VCC without functional impact.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0, A1, A2 | Address Input (No Connect) | Internally unconnected; no effect on device addressing or operation |
| VSS | Ground Reference | Return path for all internal circuits; must be connected to system ground plane |
| SDA | Serial Data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional bus line; requires external pull-up resistor (2 kΩ typical for 400 kHz) |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all I²C transfers; Schmitt-trigger input rejects noise |
| WP | Write-Protect Control | Tied to VCC → full array write-protected; tied to VSS → normal read/write enabled |
| VCC | Power Supply | Supplies core logic and EEPROM array; bypass capacitor (0.1 µF) recommended near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hardware Write-Protection | Single-pin (WP) enables or disables entire memory array - eliminates software lockout risks in field-deployed systems |
| Schmitt Trigger Inputs | Input hysteresis ≥0.05×VCC - ensures reliable signal recognition on noisy industrial buses |
| Output Slope Control | Controlled SDA/SCL rise/fall times - prevents ground bounce that could corrupt adjacent digital signals |
| I²C Bus Compatibility | Fully compliant with standard-mode (100 kHz) and fast-mode (400 kHz) I²C specifications - interoperable with legacy and modern microcontrollers |
| ESD Protection | ≥4,000 V HBM - withstands handling and board-level ESD events without latch-up or parametric shift |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24AA02T-I/MNY | Lower VCC min (1.7V), same 400 kHz max, identical MNY package and pinout | Better suited for battery-powered devices operating down to 1.7V; not rated for 2.5V-only systems | Select when supply voltage may dip below 2.5V; verify I²C bus timing margins at lower VCC |
| AT24C02D-SSHM-T | Same 2-Kbit size, 1.7–5.5V range, 1 MHz capable, SOIC-8 package (not MNY) | Requires PCB layout change due to different footprint; higher speed useful only if host supports fast-mode+ | Choose only if SOIC-8 is preferred for manual assembly or legacy board reuse; no electrical advantage for 400 kHz use case |
Compared with 24LC02BT-I/MNY, the 24AA02T-I/MNY offers wider voltage flexibility but identical timing and packaging, while the AT24C02D-SSHM-T demands layout revision and delivers no benefit at 400 kHz - making 24LC02BT-I/MNY optimal for stable 2.5–5.5V industrial designs needing MNY footprint compatibility.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage required for reliable operation of the 24LC02BT-I/MNY?
The 24LC02BT-I/MNY requires a minimum VCC of 2.5V for guaranteed operation across its full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). Operation below 2.5V is not specified and may result in failed writes, incorrect reads, or loss of I²C timing compliance. This distinguishes it from the 24AA02 variant, which supports 1.7V operation.
Does the 24LC02BT-I/MNY support 1 MHz I²C communication?
No, the 24LC02BT-I/MNY is rated for a maximum clock frequency of 400 kHz under all specified conditions. It does not support 1 MHz (fast-mode plus) I²C operation. For 1 MHz capability, consider the 24FC02 family, which is explicitly characterized for 1 MHz across its full voltage and temperature range.
How does the WP pin function on the 24LC02BT-I/MNY?
On the 24LC02BT-I/MNY, the WP (Write-Protect) pin is a logic-level control: when tied to VCC, the entire 256-byte memory array is write-inhibited (read-only); when tied to VSS or left floating (with internal pull-down), full read/write access is enabled. No internal pull-up or pull-down is present, so external connection is mandatory for deterministic behavior.
Can the 24LC02BT-I/MNY be used in automotive applications?
The 24LC02BT-I/MNY is qualified for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. While some 24LC02B variants (e.g., 24LC02BT-E/MNY) carry AEC-Q100 Grade 2 (–40°C to +105°C) certification, the -I suffix denotes industrial grade only. For automotive use, select the -E or automotive-grade part number explicitly listed as AEC-Q100 qualified.
What package type does the 24LC02BT-I/MNY use, and is it RoHS compliant?
The 24LC02BT-I/MNY uses an 8-lead UDFN (Wettable Flanks) package, 2 mm × 3 mm body with exposed thermal pad. It is RoHS compliant per Microchip's DS20001709N documentation and carries the "3e" JEDEC matte tin finish marking. The wettable flanks enable reliable automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints in high-volume SMT assembly.
