Product details
Overview
24LC08BHT-E/MNY from Microchip Technology Inc. is an 8 Kbit I²C-compatible serial EEPROM organized as four 256 × 8-bit blocks, operating from 2.5V to 5.5V with 400 kHz max clock frequency, 16-byte page write buffer, and hardware write-protect for memory addresses 200h–3FFh. It targets embedded system configuration storage, sensor calibration data retention, and industrial control parameter backup.
For engineers reviewing the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY datasheet, 24LC08BHT-E/MNY pinout, 24LC08BHT-E/MNY application, or 24LC08BHT-E/MNY equivalent, key selection criteria include VCC min (2.5V), automotive temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), half-array write-protection via WP pin, and TDFN-8 (2×3 mm) RoHS-compliant packaging.
Technical Context
The 24LC08BHT-E/MNY implements a slave-only I²C interface with fixed 7-bit address prefix '1010' and 3-bit block-select addressing, supporting byte and page write modes with self-timed erase/write cycles. Its Schmitt-trigger inputs and input filter spike suppression (50 ns) enable robust operation on noisy buses.
Internal architecture includes a 16-byte page buffer, address pointer auto-increment, and VCC threshold detector disabling write logic below 1.5V. Write protection is implemented via dedicated WP pin tied to VCC, locking addresses 200h–3FFh while permitting full read access across the 000h–3FFh address space.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24LC08B-I/MNY | Same die, Industrial temp range (−40°C to +85°C); identical electrical specs and pinout | Lacks automotive qualification; unsuitable for under-hood or powertrain use | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs extended temperature requirement |

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC voltage required for reliable operation of the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY?
The 24LC08BHT-E/MNY requires a minimum VCC of 2.5V for guaranteed operation across its full −40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range. Below 2.5V, the device is not characterized, and internal write logic is disabled if VCC drops below 1.5V due to the built-in threshold detector. This ensures data integrity during brown-out conditions without external supervision circuitry.
How does the WP pin function on the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY, and what memory region does it protect?
The WP pin on the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY is a hardware write-protect input: when tied to VCC, it disables write operations to memory addresses 200h–3FFh (half the 8 Kbit array), while allowing full read access to all 000h–3FFh locations. When tied to VSS, write protection is disabled and the entire memory becomes writable. This selective locking enables secure storage of immutable calibration data alongside user-modifiable configuration.
What package type does the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY use, and what are its key mechanical features?
The 24LC08BHT-E/MNY uses an 8-lead TDFN (Thin Dual Flat No-lead) package designated "MNY", measuring 2 mm × 3 mm with an exposed thermal pad. It features NiPdAu finish (RoHS compliant), moisture sensitivity level 1 per IPC-J-STD-020, and is optimized for high-density PCB layouts where SOIC or TSSOP footprints are prohibitive. The package is identical in pinout to 8-lead PDIP, SOIC, TSSOP, and MSOP variants.
Can the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY perform page writes across memory boundaries, and what happens if it does?
No, the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY cannot perform page writes across physical page boundaries. Its 16-byte page buffer wraps within the current page (e.g., writing 16 bytes starting at address 3F0h will overwrite bytes 3F0h–3FFh and then wrap to 300h–30Fh). Attempting to cross a boundary causes data corruption in the starting page rather than sequential continuation. Application firmware must validate write start addresses to ensure alignment with 16-byte boundaries (000h, 010h, ..., 3F0h).
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY, and under what conditions?
The 24LC08BHT-E/MNY supports a maximum I²C clock frequency of 400 kHz when VCC is between 2.5V and 5.5V, as specified in Table 1-2. At VCC < 2.5V, the device is not characterized for 400 kHz operation; however, since the 24LC08BHT-E/MNY is rated for 2.5V minimum, this condition does not apply. The 400 kHz capability enables efficient bulk data transfer while maintaining compatibility with standard Fast-mode I²C controllers.
