Product details
Overview
AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 4-kbit serial EEPROM IC organized as 512 × 8 bits, operating from 2.7V to 5.5V, featuring a two-wire I²C-compatible interface, 400 kHz clock rate at 2.7V/5V, hardware write protection via WP pin, and automotive-grade reliability with 1 million write cycles and 100-year data retention.
For engineers reviewing the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 datasheet, AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 pinout, AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 application, or AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in-capable nonvolatile memory for embedded control storage, sensor calibration data logging, and configuration parameter retention in industrial and automotive systems requiring extended temperature operation (−40°C to +85°C) and RoHS-compliant packaging.
Technical Context
The AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 implements a two-wire serial interface compliant with I²C protocol standards, supporting byte and 16-byte page writes with self-timed internal write cycles (max 5 ms). It uses hardwired A2/A1 address inputs for multi-device bus addressing-up to four 4K devices per bus-with A0 designated as no-connect.
Its internal architecture includes Schmitt-triggered, noise-filtered SDA/SCL inputs, open-drain bidirectional data transfer, and a dedicated WP pin that enables hardware-level write protection of the upper 2K array when pulled high. Standby current is 1.6 µA typical at 2.7V, supporting low-power system designs.

Pinout & Package
AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 is housed in an 8-lead JEDEC SOIC (8S1) package: 0.150" wide, plastic gull-wing outline, RoHS-compliant, lead-free/halogen-free construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0 | No-connect (NC) | Internally unused; must be left unconnected per device specification for AT24C04A family |
| A1 | Device Address Input | Hardwired to set one of four possible I²C slave addresses on shared bus (A2/A1 only used) |
| A2 | Device Address Input | Hardwired to select among four unique 4K EEPROMs on same I²C bus |
| GND | Ground Reference | Return path for VCC and all signal currents; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7–5.5V supply input; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF ceramic) recommended near pin |
| WP | Write Protect Control | Hardware lock: tied to VCC disables writes to upper 2K array; tied to GND enables full read/write access |
| SCL | Serial Clock Input | Positive-edge triggered I²C clock; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 2.2–10 kΩ) |
| SDA | Serial Data Bidirectional | Open-drain I²C data line; requires external pull-up and supports wire-OR with other open-drain devices |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hardware Write Protection | WP pin enables selective locking of upper 2K memory block-prevents accidental overwrites during firmware updates |
| Noise-Resilient Interface | Schmitt-triggered, filtered SDA/SCL inputs suppress EMI-induced glitches in electrically noisy industrial environments |
| Low-Power Standby | 1.6 µA typical standby current at 2.7V enables battery-backed or energy-harvesting system integration |
| Page Write Efficiency | 16-byte page writes reduce I²C bus occupancy by up to 87% vs. sequential byte writes for same data volume |
| Extended Temp Qualification | Rated −40°C to +85°C with 100-year data retention-meets AEC-Q100 stress test requirements for automotive ECUs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C04D-SSHM-T | Same 4K capacity, 2.7–5.5V, SOIC-8, but newer revision with enhanced ESD rating (4 kV HBM) and tighter tAA (0.1 µs min) | Preferred for new designs requiring higher robustness in electrostatic-prone assembly environments | Select AT24C04D-SSHM-T if board-level ESD immunity >4 kV HBM is required; otherwise AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 remains fully functional |
| M24C04-RMN6TP | 4K EEPROM, 1.7–5.5V, SOIC-8, but uses different write-protection scheme (software-controlled WP bit instead of hardware WP pin) | Suitable where flexible, dynamic write-lock control is needed-e.g., firmware-controlled security partitioning | Choose M24C04-RMN6TP only if software-configurable write protection is mandatory; AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 offers simpler, deterministic hardware lock |
Compared with AT24C04D-SSHM-T and M24C04-RMN6TP, the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 provides deterministic hardware write protection and proven automotive qualification, making it optimal for safety-critical or legacy-compatible designs where pin-level WP control and extended temp reliability are prioritized over marginal speed or ESD improvements.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7?
The AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 supports up to 400 kHz clock frequency when operated at VCC = 2.7V or 5.0V. At 1.8V operation (not applicable to this -2.7 variant), the max clock rate is 100 kHz. This 400 kHz capability enables faster parameter writes compared to legacy 100 kHz EEPROMs, reducing system boot time and update latency in the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7.
Does AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 require external pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL lines?
Yes, AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 requires external pull-up resistors on both SDA and SCL lines because its I²C interface uses open-drain outputs. Typical values range from 2.2 kΩ to 10 kΩ depending on bus capacitance and speed; 4.7 kΩ is commonly used for 400 kHz operation. Without pull-ups, the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 cannot drive valid high logic levels on the bus.
How does the WP pin function on AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7?
On the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7, the WP (Write Protect) pin provides hardware-level write protection: when tied to VCC, it locks the upper 2K (2048-bit) memory block against writes; when tied to GND, full read/write access is enabled. This feature prevents accidental overwrites during firmware updates or power transients, and is a key differentiator of the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 versus software-only protected EEPROMs.
What is the memory organization of AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7?
The AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 is internally organized as 512 words of 8 bits each (4096 total bits), arranged in 32 pages of 16 bytes. This 16-byte page structure enables efficient page-write operations, reducing I²C transaction count by up to 94% versus byte-by-byte writes for contiguous data. The memory map and page boundaries are fixed and defined in the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 datasheet.
Is AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7 is explicitly specified as automotive grade with extended temperature operation from −40°C to +85°C and meets relevant reliability standards including 1 million write cycles and 100-year data retention. Its SOIC-8 package is halogen-free and RoHS-compliant, satisfying Tier-1 supplier requirements for body electronics and infotainment modules using the AT24C04AN-10SI-2.7.
