Product details
Overview
AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 from Microchip Technology is a 1K-bit (128 × 8) two-wire serial EEPROM optimized for low-voltage embedded systems. It operates from 1.8V to 5.5V, supports 100 kHz I²C communication at 1.8V, features hardware write protection via the WP pin, and delivers 1 million write cycles with 100-year data retention - used in industrial sensor calibration storage and power-management configuration memory.
For engineers reviewing the AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 datasheet, AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 pinout, AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 application, or AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 equivalent, key selection criteria include 1.8V minimum supply compatibility, SOIC-8 package footprint, 8-byte page write capability, Schmitt-triggered noise-immune inputs, and hardware-based write protection for firmware-critical parameter storage.
Technical Context
The AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 implements a standard I²C-compatible two-wire interface with open-drain SDA and edge-triggered SCL, supporting standard-mode (100 kHz) operation down to 1.8V. Its internal address counter enables sequential reads across pages, and device addressing uses hard-wired A0–A2 pins for up to eight devices on one bus.
It employs a self-timed internal write cycle (max 5 ms), includes Schmitt-triggered inputs with 100 ns noise suppression, and uses a dedicated WP pin to disable all write operations when pulled high - ensuring robustness against accidental overwrites during brown-out or reset conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1024 bits (128 words × 8 bits), organized as 16 pages of 8 bytes each - defines maximum byte-addressable space and page-write granularity. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8V logic families and mixed-voltage systems without level shifters. |
| I²C Clock Frequency | 100 kHz at VCC = 1.8V - sets maximum reliable communication speed under lowest operating voltage condition. |
| Write Cycle Time | 5 ms max - determines minimum time between successive write commands and impacts firmware timeout design. |
| Endurance | 1 million write cycles - specifies guaranteed rewrite count before wear-out, critical for frequently updated configuration data. |
| Data Retention | 100 years at +25°C - ensures long-term validity of stored calibration or security keys without refresh. |
| Standby Current | 0.6 µA typical at VCC = 1.8V - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-harvesting applications. |
Pinout & Package
AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 is packaged in an 8-lead JEDEC SOIC (8S1), 0.150" wide body, RoHS-compliant green package with NiPdAu lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | Device Address Input | Hard-wired address bit enabling up to eight AT24C01A devices on one I²C bus; tied low or high per system topology. |
| A1 | Device Address Input | Second hard-wired address bit; used with A0 and A2 to form unique 3-bit device address for multi-device configurations. |
| A2 | Device Address Input | Third hard-wired address bit; all three (A0–A2) determine slave address (0x50–0x57) in 7-bit I²C addressing. |
| GND | Ground Reference | System common return path for VCC, signals, and internal EEPROM substrate bias. |
| VCC | Power Supply | Primary supply input (1.8–5.5V); powers internal logic, memory array, and I/O buffers - must be decoupled locally. |
| WP | Write Protect Control | Active-high hardware lock: logic high disables all write operations including byte/page writes and erase - prevents corruption during power transitions. |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Positive-edge clock for synchronous data transfer; open-drain compatible, requires external pull-up resistor. |
| SDA | Serial Data I/O | Bidirectional open-drain data line; shared across I²C bus, requires external pull-up and supports multi-master arbitration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 1.8V Operation Support | Guaranteed functionality at 1.8V supply enables direct integration with ultra-low-power microcontrollers and battery-powered sensors. |
| Hardware Write Protection | WP pin provides deterministic, voltage-level-controlled write disable - eliminates need for software locks or command sequences. |
| Schmitt-Trigger Inputs | Input hysteresis suppresses noise-induced false clock/data transitions in electrically noisy industrial environments. |
| 8-Byte Page Write Mode | Allows up to 8 sequential bytes to be written in one transaction, reducing I²C bus occupancy and host CPU overhead. |
| 100-Year Data Retention | Ensures stored calibration coefficients, device IDs, or security credentials remain valid over full product lifecycle without refresh. |

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 generation with enhanced ESD rating (4 kV HBM), same 1K capacity, SOIC-8, 1.7–5.5V range, and identical pinout. | Designed for new designs requiring extended reliability in harsh environments; supports same I²C protocol and page write mode. | Select when upgrading legacy AT24C01A-based designs for improved robustness and long-term availability. |
| M24C01-RMN6TP | STMicroelectronics 1K EEPROM in SOIC-8; 1.8–5.5V, 400 kHz max (at ≥2.5V), 1M endurance, but lacks dedicated WP pin - uses software write protection only. | Requires firmware-level lock implementation; unsuitable where hardware-level write disable is mandated by safety standards. | Choose for cost-sensitive applications where software-controlled protection suffices and higher-speed operation above 1.8V is beneficial. |
Compared with AT24C01A-10SU-1.8, AT24C01B-SSHM-T offers superior ESD immunity and broader voltage margin, while M24C01-RMN6TP trades hardware write protection for higher I²C speed at elevated voltages - making the original part optimal for 1.8V-constrained, safety-critical, or legacy-compatible deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 at 1.8V?
The AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 supports a maximum I²C clock frequency of 100 kHz when operating at VCC = 1.8V. This is specified in Table 5 of the official datasheet under "1.8-volt" AC characteristics. At higher supply voltages (≥2.7V), it supports up to 400 kHz, but the 100 kHz limit applies strictly to the 1.8V operation mode of AT24C01A-10SU-1.8.
Does AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 have a dedicated hardware write protect pin?
Yes, AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 includes a dedicated Write Protect (WP) pin. When WP is driven high (to VCC), all write operations - including byte writes, page writes, and write-to-status-register - are disabled. When WP is grounded, normal read/write functionality is enabled. This hardware-level protection is independent of I²C commands and remains active during power transitions.
What package type is used for AT24C01A-10SU-1.8?
AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 uses an 8-lead JEDEC SOIC package (designated 8S1), 0.150" wide body, with RoHS-compliant green molding compound and NiPdAu lead finish. The "SU" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes this SOIC packaging variant per Microchip's ordering information table.
How many devices can share the same I²C bus using AT24C01A-10SU-1.8?
Up to eight AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 devices can be addressed on a single I²C bus. This is achieved using the three hard-wired device address inputs (A0, A1, A2), which combine to form a 3-bit address extension to the base I²C slave address (0x50). Each unique combination of A0–A2 yields a distinct 7-bit address from 0x50 to 0x57.
Is AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 suitable for automotive applications?
No, AT24C01A-10SU-1.8 is rated for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and is not qualified to AEC-Q100 automotive standards. While the AT24C01A family includes automotive-grade variants (e.g., AT24C01A-10MU-1.8), the "SU" suffix indicates standard industrial SOIC packaging without automotive qualification. For automotive use, consult Microchip's automotive-specific ordering codes.
