Product details
Overview
AT24C01-10SI-2.5 from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 1K-bit (128 × 8) serial EEPROM with 2-wire I²C-compatible interface, optimized for low-voltage industrial applications requiring VCC = 2.5V to 5.5V operation, 100 kHz clock frequency at 2.5V, and -40°C to +85°C temperature range. It supports 4-byte page writes, self-timed 10 ms max write cycles, and delivers 1 million write endurance with 100-year data retention.
For engineers reviewing the AT24C01-10SI-2.5 datasheet, AT24C01-10SI-2.5 pinout, AT24C01-10SI-2.5 application, or AT24C01-10SI-2.5 equivalent, key selection considerations include its industrial-grade temperature rating, 2.5V minimum supply compatibility, SOIC-8 package footprint, and I²C bus timing compliance at reduced voltage.
Technical Context
The AT24C01-10SI-2.5 implements a fixed 7-bit slave address with A0–A2 pins for device addressing on shared I²C buses, and uses open-drain SDA/SCL signaling with internal pull-up requirements. Its memory array is organized as 128 individually addressable bytes, accessed via 7-bit word addresses without internal address incrementing beyond page boundaries in byte mode.
Write operations support both byte and 4-byte page modes; after each write, the device enters a non-responsive self-timed write cycle (tWR ≤ 10 ms), during which acknowledge polling must be used to detect completion. Standby current is specified at 4.0 µA max (VCC = 2.5V, TA = -40°C to +85°C), enabling ultra-low-power retention in battery-backed systems.

| 5 (VCC) | Power Supply | Primary power rail (2.5V–5.5V); requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling placed within 5 mm of pin |
| 6 (TEST) | Factory Test Input | Internally connected to GND or VCC during production test; left unconnected in application circuits |
| 7 (SCL) | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock signal; open-drain compatible; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 2.2–10 kΩ) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Microchip 24AA01-I/SN | Same 1K-bit capacity, 2.5V–5.5V operation, SOIC-8 package, but rated for -40°C to +125°C and features enhanced ESD (4000V HBM) | Preferred for extended-temperature automotive or aerospace use where >85°C ambient is expected | Select 24AA01-I/SN when operating above +85°C or requiring higher ESD immunity; pinout and firmware are identical |
| ON Semiconductor CAT24C01HU4I-GT3 | 1K-bit EEPROM with 1.7V–5.5V supply, 100 kHz @ 1.8V, SOIC-8, but specifies only 100k write cycles and 40-year retention | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer products with shorter service life and lower reliability demands | Choose CAT24C01HU4I-GT3 for budget-constrained designs where 100k endurance and 40-year retention are acceptable |
Compared with AT24C01-10SI-2.5, the 24AA01-I/SN extends temperature capability and ESD robustness without layout or firmware changes, while the CAT24C01HU4I-GT3 trades endurance and retention for lower unit cost in non-critical applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by AT24C01-10SI-2.5 at 2.5V?
The AT24C01-10SI-2.5 supports a maximum I²C clock frequency of 100 kHz when operated at VCC = 2.5V. This is explicitly specified in the AC Characteristics table under "2.7-, 2.5-, 1.8-volt" conditions. At 5.0V, the device supports up to 400 kHz, but AT24C01-10SI-2.5 is rated for 2.5V–5.5V operation and maintains 100 kHz timing compliance across its entire voltage range.
Does AT24C01-10SI-2.5 require external pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL lines?
Yes, AT24C01-10SI-2.5 requires external pull-up resistors on both SDA and SCL lines because it uses open-drain outputs. The datasheet specifies that SDA is bidirectional and open-drain driven, and SCL is an input with open-drain compatibility. Typical values range from 2.2 kΩ to 10 kΩ depending on bus capacitance and speed; AT24C01-10SI-2.5 will not function correctly on an I²C bus without these pull-ups.
Can AT24C01-10SI-2.5 be used in place of AT24C01-10PI-2.5?
No - AT24C01-10SI-2.5 and AT24C01-10PI-2.5 differ in package and temperature grade: AT24C01-10SI-2.5 uses SOIC-8 (8S1) and is industrial-grade (-40°C to +85°C), while AT24C01-10PI-2.5 uses PDIP-8 (8P3) and shares the same temperature rating. They are not pin-compatible due to different footprints; PCB layout and soldering process must match the specific package of AT24C01-10SI-2.5.
What is the standby current consumption of AT24C01-10SI-2.5 at 2.5V?
The standby current (ISB2) for AT24C01-10SI-2.5 is specified as 1.4 µA (typical) and 4.0 µA (maximum) at VCC = 2.5V and TA = -40°C to +85°C. This value is measured with all inputs at VCC or VSS, confirming ultra-low quiescent power draw ideal for battery-powered or energy-harvesting systems using AT24C01-10SI-2.5.
How many devices can share the same I²C bus with AT24C01-10SI-2.5?
Up to eight AT24C01-10SI-2.5 devices can share a single I²C bus using the A0, A1, and A2 address pins to configure unique 7-bit slave addresses. Each pin sets one bit of the address, yielding 2³ = 8 possible combinations. All devices must use the same VCC and share common pull-ups; AT24C01-10SI-2.5 does not support address auto-increment or dynamic addressing.
