Product details
Overview
AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 from Microchip Technology is a 1K-bit (128 × 8) two-wire serial EEPROM optimized for low-voltage embedded systems, supporting 1.8V to 5.5V operation, 100 kHz I²C interface speed at 1.8V, hardware write protection via WP pin, and 8-byte page write capability. It is used in industrial sensor calibration storage, IoT device configuration retention, and power-constrained microcontroller peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 datasheet, AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 pinout, AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 application, or AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 equivalent, key selection criteria include 1.8V minimum supply compatibility, 100 kHz I²C timing at low voltage, JEDEC SOIC-8 package footprint, WP-enabled hardware data lock, and 1 million write cycle endurance.
Technical Context
The AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 implements a standard two-wire (I²C-compatible) serial interface with open-drain SDA and edge-triggered SCL, supporting standard-mode clocking up to 100 kHz at 1.8V. Its internal address counter enables sequential read and current-address read modes without external address latching.
It uses Schmitt-trigger inputs with noise filtering on SDA and SCL, supports partial page writes within its 8-byte pages, and features self-timed internal write cycles completing in ≤5 ms. The device includes hard-wired A0–A2 pins for multi-device bus addressing (up to eight 1K devices), with WP pin enabling full-array hardware write protection when pulled high.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1024 bits (128 words × 8 bits), organized as 16 pages of 8 bytes - defines maximum nonvolatile storage capacity and page-boundary constraints for write operations. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8V logic families and mixed-voltage systems without level shifting. |
| I²C Clock Frequency | 100 kHz max at VCC = 1.8V - sets maximum reliable communication speed under low-voltage operation. |
| Write Cycle Time | ≤5 ms - determines minimum time between successive write commands and impacts firmware timeout design. |
| Endurance | 1 million write cycles - specifies guaranteed rewrite count before parametric degradation, critical for frequent configuration updates. |
| Data Retention | 100 years at +25°C - ensures long-term validity of stored calibration or identity data without refresh. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualifies use in industrial and automotive cabin environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 is supplied in an 8-lead JEDEC SOIC (8S1) package, 0.150" wide body, RoHS-compliant and green-packaged ("U" suffix). Dimensions: 4.90 mm × 3.90 mm × 1.75 mm (L × W × H), with 1.27 mm lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Device Address Input | Hard-wired LSB of 3-bit device address; enables up to eight AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 devices on one I²C bus. |
| A1 | Device Address Input | Mid-bit of 3-bit device address; tied high/low to configure unique slave address in multi-device systems. |
| A2 | Device Address Input | MSB of 3-bit device address; completes 3-bit hardware-selectable address (0x50–0x57 range). |
| GND | Ground Reference | Return path for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance to ensure noise immunity and stable logic thresholds. |
| VCC | Power Supply | Primary supply input (1.8V–5.5V); powers EEPROM core, interface logic, and charge pump for write operations. |
| WP | Write Protect Control | Active-high hardware lock: logic high disables all write operations, protecting stored data against accidental overwrite. |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Positive-edge clock for data sampling; requires external pull-up and synchronizes all I²C transactions. |
| SDA | Serial Data I/O | Bidirectional open-drain line shared across I²C bus; requires external pull-up and supports wire-OR multi-master arbitration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Schmitt-trigger, filtered inputs | Enables robust I²C communication in electrically noisy industrial environments by rejecting sub-100 ns glitches on SCL/SDA. |
| 8-byte page write mode | Reduces firmware overhead by allowing up to 8 sequential bytes to be written per stop condition, improving update efficiency. |
| Self-timed internal write cycle | Eliminates need for precise software timing delays; host can poll ACK or wait fixed 5 ms before next command. |
| Hardware write protection (WP) | Provides fail-safe data integrity during power transitions or firmware faults-no software dependency required. |
| 1.8V–5.5V wide supply range | Supports direct integration with 1.8V microcontrollers (e.g., ARM Cortex-M0+) and legacy 3.3V/5V systems without regulators. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C01B-SSHM-T | Successor part with identical 1K-bit capacity, same SOIC-8 package, but rated for 1.7V–5.5V and enhanced ESD performance (4 kV HBM). | Recommended for new designs requiring extended low-voltage margin and higher robustness in automated test environments. | Select AT24C01B-SSHM-T when designing for production beyond 2025; AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 remains valid for legacy repair and continuity. |
| CAT24C01HU4IGT3 | ON Semiconductor 1K-bit EEPROM in 8-lead TSSOP; supports 1.8V–5.5V, 100 kHz @ 1.8V, but lacks A0–A2 address pins (fixed address 0x50 only). | Suitable for single-device I²C nodes where address flexibility is unnecessary and TSSOP footprint is preferred over SOIC. | Choose CAT24C01HU4IGT3 only if board layout accommodates TSSOP-8 and bus topology uses only one EEPROM per segment. |
Compared with AT24C01A-10PU-1.8, AT24C01B-SSHM-T offers lower minimum voltage and improved reliability for future designs, while CAT24C01HU4IGT3 trades address configurability for compact TSSOP packaging - both require validation of WP functionality and timing compliance in target systems.

FAQ
What is the minimum operating voltage for the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8?
The AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 operates down to 1.8V, as confirmed by its "–1.8" suffix and DC Characteristics table specifying VCC min = 1.8V. This allows direct interfacing with 1.8V I/O domains without level shifters. Operation below 1.8V is not guaranteed and may result in unreliable reads/writes or failure to acknowledge I²C addresses. Always maintain VCC ≥ 1.8V across temperature and load conditions for AT24C01A-10PU-1.8.
Does the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 support standard I²C protocol?
Yes, the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 implements a standard two-wire interface fully compatible with I²C protocol specifications, including START/STOP conditions, 7-bit slave addressing (with R/W bit), and ACK/NACK handshaking. It supports standard-mode speeds up to 100 kHz at 1.8V and 400 kHz at ≥2.7V. No proprietary extensions or modifications are required to use AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 in standard I²C systems.
How many devices can share the same I²C bus with AT24C01A-10PU-1.8?
Up to eight AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 devices can coexist on a single I²C bus using hardware-configurable device addresses via A0, A1, and A2 pins. Each combination of A0–A2 ties yields a unique 7-bit address in the 0x50–0x57 range. This assumes no other I²C devices occupy those addresses and that bus capacitance remains ≤400 pF - verified in actual layout for AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 deployments.
What happens when the WP pin is connected to VCC on the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8?
When WP is pulled high to VCC, the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 enters full-array hardware write protection mode: all write operations (byte, page, and erase) are blocked, and the device responds only to read commands. Writes are rejected silently - no error flag or NACK is generated. This behavior is specified in Table 2 of the datasheet and applies uniformly across the entire 1K-bit memory array of AT24C01A-10PU-1.8.
Is the AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 suitable for automotive applications?
The AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 is qualified for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and listed as "Automotive Devices Available" in the datasheet, but this refers to a separate automotive-grade variant (e.g., AT24C01A-10PU-1.8A) with AEC-Q100 qualification. The standard AT24C01A-10PU-1.8 is not AEC-Q100 certified and should not be used in safety-critical automotive ECUs without additional qualification testing and validation for AT24C01A-10PU-1.8.
