Product details
Overview
25AA080DT-I/SN from Microchip Technology is an 8 Kbit SPI Serial EEPROM with 1.8–5.5 V supply range, 32-byte page size, and industrial temperature rating (–40°C to +85°C). It features 10 MHz max clock speed, self-timed 5 ms write cycle, hardware write protection via WP pin, and supports sequential read for firmware storage in microcontroller-based systems.
For engineers reviewing the 25AA080DT-I/SN datasheet, 25AA080DT-I/SN pinout, 25AA080DT-I/SN application, or 25AA080DT-I/SN equivalent, key selection criteria include voltage compatibility (1.8 V min), page-write boundary handling, HOLD functionality for interrupt-safe SPI bus sharing, and block protection granularity (none/1/4/1/2/all array).
Technical Context
The 25AA080DT-I/SN implements a standard SPI Mode 0,0 interface with separate SI and SO lines, requiring CS low, SCK edge-triggered sampling (data latched on rising SCK, SO updated after falling SCK), and HOLD support for pausing ongoing transfers. Its internal architecture includes a 1024 × 8-bit EEPROM array, page latches, HV generator for write/erase, and status register with WIP, WEL, BP0/BP1, and WPEN bits.
Write operations require explicit WREN instruction followed by WRITE command and address; page writes are limited to 32 bytes within a single physical page (000h–01Fh, 020h–03Fh, etc.), and crossing boundaries causes wraparound. Hardware write protection engages only when WP = low AND WPEN = 1, leaving memory reads and status register reads unaffected.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 8 Kbit (1024 × 8-bit organization) - fixed address space up to 03FFh, enabling compact firmware parameter or calibration data storage. |
| Interface | SPI-compatible serial bus (Mode 0,0) - requires only CS, SCK, SI, SO, WP, HOLD, VCC, VSS - minimal GPIO usage on host MCU. |
| Page Size | 32 bytes - maximum contiguous write per command; software must enforce alignment to avoid unintended data wraparound. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 10 MHz at VCC ≥ 4.5 V - supports high-speed configuration loading without MCU clock domain bottlenecks. |
| Write Cycle Time | 5 ms max (self-timed) - deterministic erase/write latency enables predictable timeout handling in real-time firmware. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 5.5 V - interoperable with 1.8 V logic-level MCUs and legacy 5 V systems without level-shifting. |
| Endurance & Retention | >1 million erase/write cycles; >200 years data retention - suitable for field-updatable calibration tables and infrequently modified system parameters. |
Pinout & Package
25AA080DT-I/SN is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package (SN suffix), 3.9 mm × 4.9 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant matte tin finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS (Pin 1) | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable; deselecting places SO in high-impedance state, allowing multi-device SPI bus sharing. |
| SO (Pin 2) | Serial Data Output | Tri-state output; data valid after falling SCK edge; high-Z when CS high or HOLD low. |
| WP (Pin 3) | Hardware Write-Protect Control | Enables nonvolatile block protection only when WPEN bit = 1; no effect if WPEN = 0, enabling safe board-level grounding. |
| VSS (Pin 4) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all I/O and core circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to system GND plane. |
| SI (Pin 5) | Serial Data Input | Latches instruction, address, and data on rising SCK edge; accepts MSB-first SPI framing. |
| SCK (Pin 6) | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes all data transfers; timing constraints scale with VCC (e.g., 10 MHz max at ≥4.5 V). |
| HOLD (Pin 7) | Bus Pause Control | Halts ongoing SPI transfer when pulled low during active CS; resumes on rising edge while SCK is low - critical for servicing MCU interrupts. |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Power Supply | 1.8–5.5 V operation; internal regulation ensures stable core voltage across full range; decoupling capacitor required near pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Block Write Protection | Selectable protection of none / 1/4 / 1/2 / all memory array via BP0/BP1 bits - prevents accidental overwrite of boot code or security keys. |
| Power-On Write Disable | Write enable latch resets at power-up - eliminates risk of spurious writes during brown-out or reset sequencing. |
| HOLD Functionality | Pauses active SPI transaction without losing state - enables deterministic interrupt response in time-critical embedded applications. |
| Low Standby Current | 1 µA at +85°C (VCC = 5.5 V) - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes or portable instrumentation. |
| ESD Robustness | >4 kV 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 SPI EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25LC080DT-I/SN | Requires minimum 2.5 V VCC; same 32-byte page, 8 Kbit, SOIC-8 package. | Not suitable for 1.8 V or 2.0 V systems; otherwise identical functional and timing behavior. | Select 25LC080DT-I/SN only when system VCC is guaranteed ≥2.5 V and cost sensitivity favors Microchip's LC series. |
| AT25080B-SSHL-T | Same 8 Kbit, 32-byte page, SOIC-8; supports 2.5–5.5 V; 20 MHz max clock; built-in write inhibit during power ramp. | Higher clock rate enables faster bulk writes; lacks HOLD pin - requires software-managed bus arbitration. | Choose AT25080B-SSHL-T when higher throughput is needed and HOLD functionality is not required in the host design. |
Compared with 25LC080DT-I/SN, the 25AA080DT-I/SN enables 1.8 V operation for ultra-low-power systems, while the AT25080B-SSHL-T offers faster 20 MHz SPI but omits HOLD - making 25AA080DT-I/SN optimal for interrupt-sensitive, wide-voltage embedded control.

FAQ
What is the minimum supply voltage required for reliable operation of the 25AA080DT-I/SN?
The 25AA080DT-I/SN operates reliably down to 1.8 V across its full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). Below 1.8 V, read/write functionality is not guaranteed per Microchip's DS22151B specification. This 1.8 V minimum enables direct integration with modern ultra-low-power MCUs and battery-powered sensors without level-shifting circuitry.
Does the 25AA080DT-I/SN support page write operations, and what is the maximum page size?
Yes, the 25AA080DT-I/SN supports page write operations with a maximum page size of 32 bytes. This 'D' version device differs from the 'C' version (16-byte pages). Software must ensure all bytes in a single page write fall within the same 32-byte boundary (e.g., addresses 000h–01Fh); crossing boundaries causes data to wrap to the start of the page.
How does the HOLD pin function during an active SPI transaction on the 25AA080DT-I/SN?
The HOLD pin on the 25AA080DT-I/SN suspends an ongoing SPI transaction when pulled low while CS is active and SCK is low. All I/O pins enter high-impedance state, and the device retains internal state. Resuming requires bringing HOLD high while SCK remains low - enabling the host MCU to service higher-priority interrupts without restarting the entire command sequence.
Can the 25AA080DT-I/SN be used in automotive applications requiring AEC-Q100 qualification?
No, the 25AA080DT-I/SN carries an industrial temperature rating (–40°C to +85°C) and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For automotive applications, Microchip offers the 25LC080D variant with 'E' grade (–40°C to +125°C) and automotive qualification - e.g., 25LC080DE/SN - which meets AEC-Q100 stress test requirements.
What write protection mechanisms are available on the 25AA080DT-I/SN?
The 25AA080DT-I/SN provides three layered write protection: (1) software-controlled STATUS register bits (BP0/BP1) for nonvolatile block protection (none/1/4/1/2/all), (2) hardware WP pin enabled only when WPEN bit = 1, and (3) power-on reset of the write enable latch. These mechanisms collectively prevent accidental or malicious writes to critical configuration or calibration data.
