Product details
Overview
24VL014HT/MS from Microchip Technology Inc. is a 1 Kbit (128 × 8) I²C-compatible serial EEPROM with single-supply operation down to 1.5V, maximum active current of 400 μA, standby current of 1 μA, and hardware write protection for half-array (addresses 40h–7Fh). It supports 100 kHz (VCC < 1.8V) or 400 kHz (VCC ≥ 1.8V) clock rates and is packaged in an 8-pin MSOP.
For engineers reviewing the 24VL014HT/MS datasheet, 24VL014HT/MS pinout, 24VL014HT/MS application, or 24VL014HT/MS equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated pin functions, confirmed I²C timing compliance, real-world endurance (1M cycles), and precise package mapping to MSOP - all critical for low-voltage embedded data logging, configuration storage, and industrial sensor calibration designs.
Technical Context
The 24VL014HT/MS implements a true two-wire I²C slave interface with Schmitt-trigger inputs on SDA and SCL for noise immunity, internal slope control to suppress ground bounce, and a VCC threshold detector that disables erase/write logic below 1.0V. Its address decoding uses three user-configurable chip-select pins (A0–A2), enabling up to eight devices on one bus.
It features a 16-byte page write buffer, self-timed byte/page write cycles (max 5 ms), and hardware write protection activated by tying WP to VCC. The device operates across –20°C to +85°C and retains data for >200 years, with ESD protection exceeding 4 kV on all pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 1.5V to 3.6V - enables direct integration into ultra-low-power systems powered by coin cells or energy-harvesting sources. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 400 kHz (≥1.8V), 100 kHz (<1.8V) - ensures reliable I²C communication across full voltage range without external clock scaling. |
| Active Current | ≤400 μA at 3.6V, 400 kHz - minimizes system power budget during read/write operations in battery-powered nodes. |
| Standby Current | ≤1 μA at 3.6V - extends shelf life and operational runtime in always-on monitoring applications. |
| Endurance | 1 million erase/write cycles per page - supports frequent firmware parameter updates in field-deployed equipment. |
| Data Retention | >200 years at 25°C - guarantees long-term integrity of calibration coefficients and device identity data. |
| Write Protection | Hardware-enabled for addresses 40h–7Fh via WP pin tied to VCC - prevents accidental overwrites of critical configuration blocks. |
Pinout & Package
24VL014HT/MS is supplied in an 8-pin MSOP (Micro Small Outline Package) with 0.65 mm pitch, body size 3.0 × 3.0 mm, and exposed pad not present. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; orientation follows standard MSOP pin numbering (counterclockwise from pin 1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Chip Select Input | User-configurable address bit A0; sets LSB of 3-bit device address (1010xxxR/W) - enables multi-device bus expansion. |
| A1 | Chip Select Input | User-configurable address bit A1; determines second bit of slave address - allows unique addressing for up to eight devices. |
| A2 | Chip Select Input | User-configurable address bit A2; sets MSB of 3-bit device address - required for contiguous 8 Kbit memory mapping. |
| VSS | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry; must be connected directly to system ground plane to ensure noise immunity. |
| SDA | Bidirectional Serial Data | Open-drain I²C data line requiring external pull-up (2 kΩ @ 400 kHz); changes only during SCL low to avoid spurious Start/Stop. |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all transfers; Schmitt-trigger input rejects noise spikes ≤50 ns. |
| WP | Hardware Write-Protect | Logic-high (VCC) enables write protection for memory block 40h–7Fh; logic-low (VSS) disables protection globally. |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single supply input (1.5–3.6V); internal voltage detector disables writes if VCC drops below 1.0V - prevents corruption during brownout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-Voltage Operation | Functional down to 1.5V - eliminates need for level shifters when interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers or sensors. |
| Page Write Buffer | 16-byte buffer reduces I²C transaction count for bulk writes - cuts bus occupancy time by up to 94% vs. byte-by-byte writes. |
| Noise Immunity | Schmitt-trigger inputs + 50 ns spike suppression on SDA/SCL - sustains reliable communication in electrically noisy industrial environments. |
| Half-Array Write Protection | Hardware-enforced lock for 512-bit region (40h–7Fh) - safeguards factory-calibrated parameters from firmware-level overwrite errors. |
| Cascadability | Supports up to eight devices on one I²C bus using A0–A2 - enables scalable nonvolatile storage without additional GPIO or address decoders. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C01D-SSHM-T | 1 Kbit I²C EEPROM; VCC = 1.7–5.5V; no sub-1.8V support; 5 ms write cycle; no half-array hardware WP. | Lacks 1.5V operation and dedicated hardware write protection - unsuitable for coin-cell or safety-critical calibration storage. | Select only if system VCC ≥ 1.7V and software-based protection suffices. |
| BR24G01NUX-5TR | 1 Kbit I²C EEPROM; VCC = 1.6–5.5V; 1 μA standby; supports 1 MHz mode; no Schmitt-trigger inputs. | Higher max clock but lacks noise-suppression circuitry - requires external filtering in EMI-prone environments. | Prefer where speed >400 kHz is needed and board-level noise mitigation is already implemented. |
Compared with AT24C01D-SSHM-T and BR24G01NUX-5TR, the 24VL014HT/MS uniquely combines 1.5V operation, hardware half-array write protection, and Schmitt-trigger noise immunity - making it the only choice for ultra-low-power, safety-critical, or high-noise embedded systems requiring guaranteed data integrity without design overhead.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required for reliable operation of the 24VL014HT/MS?
The 24VL014HT/MS operates reliably down to 1.5V across its full temperature range (–20°C to +85°C). Below 1.8V, the maximum I²C clock frequency is limited to 100 kHz to maintain timing margins. Internal voltage detection disables write operations if VCC falls below 1.0V, preventing data corruption during brownout conditions - a critical safeguard confirmed in DS22116A-page 5.
How does the hardware write protection work on the 24VL014HT/MS?
The 24VL014HT/MS uses the WP pin to enable hardware write protection for memory addresses 40h–7Fh (512 bits). When WP is tied to VCC, writes to this half-array are blocked at the silicon level - no software override exists. If WP is tied to VSS, full array access is permitted. This feature is physically implemented in the device's write-control logic and verified in DS22116A-page 5 and page 9.
Can multiple 24VL014HT/MS devices share the same I²C bus?
Yes - up to eight 24VL014HT/MS devices can operate on a single I²C bus using the A0, A1, and A2 pins to configure unique 3-bit slave addresses (1010xxxR/W). Each device must have a distinct combination of logic levels on these pins, hardwired to VSS or VCC. This cascading capability is explicitly documented in DS22116A-page 2 and page 5.
What is the maximum write cycle time for the 24VL014HT/MS?
The 24VL014HT/MS has a maximum write cycle time of 5 ms for both byte and page writes, as specified in Table 1-2, Parameter TWC (DS22116A-page 3). This value is guaranteed across the full VCC (1.5–3.6V) and temperature (–20°C to +85°C) ranges and includes auto-erase functionality - no external delay circuitry is required.
Does the 24VL014HT/MS support page write operations, and what is the buffer size?
Yes - the 24VL014HT/MS supports page write operations with a 16-byte on-chip buffer, allowing up to 16 bytes to be written in a single I²C transaction. The buffer wraps within physical page boundaries (aligned to 16-byte offsets), and crossing a boundary causes data to overwrite earlier entries in the same page - behavior confirmed in DS22116A-page 9.
