Product details
Overview
AT24CM01-SHM-B from Microchip Technology is a 1-Mbit I²C-compatible serial EEPROM organized as 131,072 × 8 bits, operating from 1.7V to 5.5V with industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), Fast Mode Plus (1 MHz) support, and hardware write protection via WP pin - used for nonvolatile configuration storage in embedded controllers, power management units, and sensor calibration modules.
For engineers reviewing the AT24CM01-SHM-B datasheet, AT24CM01-SHM-B pinout, AT24CM01-SHM-B application, or AT24CM01-SHM-B equivalent, this page delivers verified pin functions, real-world timing behavior (tWR ≤ 5 ms), noise-immune interface design (Schmitt triggers + input filtering), and drop-in alternatives for legacy I²C EEPROM migration paths.
Technical Context
The AT24CM01-SHM-B implements a two-wire I²C slave interface with bidirectional SDA and unidirectional SCL, supporting Standard (100 kHz), Fast (400 kHz), and Fast Mode Plus (1 MHz) speeds depending on VCC level. It uses internal address latching with A1/A2 hardware-selectable device addressing (up to four devices per bus) and includes a dedicated Write-Protect (WP) pin that disables all writes when driven high.
Internally, memory is structured as 512 pages of 256 bytes each, enabling byte-write and partial-page-write operations. Built-in error detection and correction, plus Power-on Reset (POR) with tPUP = 100 µs, ensure reliable operation during brown-out and bus contention scenarios without external reset circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8), sufficient for full firmware parameter sets or multi-sensor calibration tables |
| Interface | I²C-compatible two-wire (SCL/SDA), no additional control lines required beyond WP and address pins |
| VCC Range | 1.7V–5.5V low-voltage grade, enabling direct use with 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V microcontrollers |
| Write Speed | ≤5 ms max self-timed write cycle, eliminating need for polling delay in time-critical firmware updates |
| Endurance & Retention | 1,000,000 write cycles and 100-year data retention at 55°C, validated for long-life industrial deployments |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C industrial grade, qualified for automotive cabin modules and factory automation nodes |
| Standby Current | ≤6 µA at 5.5V, minimizing battery drain in always-on IoT edge sensors |
Pinout & Package
AT24CM01-SHM-B is packaged in an 8-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) with standard 150-mil body width and 1.27 mm pitch. Pin 1 is marked with a beveled corner or dot; the package is RoHS-compliant, halide-free, and lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 NC | No Connect | Unused die bond pad; must remain floating or tied to GND - no electrical function |
| 2 A1 | Hardware Address Input | Hardwired to GND/VCC to select one of four device addresses (1010xxxA) on shared I²C bus |
| 3 A2 | Hardware Address Input | Second address bit; combined with A1 enables up to four AT24CM01-SHM-B devices on same bus |
| 4 GND | Ground Reference | System ground return path; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into SDA/SCL |
| 5 SDA | Serial Data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line; requires external pull-up (≤10 kΩ); supports wire-OR with other I²C slaves |
| 6 SCL | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock; rising edge latches input, falling edge outputs data; includes Schmitt trigger |
| 7 WP | Write-Protect Control | Drives high → full-array write inhibit; drives low → normal write access; internally pulled down if floating |
| 8 VCC | Power Supply | 1.7V–5.5V supply; must ramp monotonically at ≤0.1 V/µs; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required near pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fast Mode Plus (1 MHz) | Enables 2.5× faster writes vs. standard 400 kHz mode when VCC ≥ 2.5V - reduces firmware update latency |
| Schmitt-trigger inputs | Rejects >100 ns noise spikes on SCL/SDA, eliminating false start/stop detection in electrically noisy environments |
| 256-byte page write | Allows burst programming of up to 256 bytes per write cycle - optimal for logging sequential sensor data |
| Built-in ECC | Detects and corrects single-bit errors in stored data, preventing silent corruption in critical configuration registers |
| Ultra-low standby current | 6 µA max at 5.5V allows integration into battery-powered nodes with multi-year shelf life requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C1024-SSHM-T | Same 1-Mbit density, but only supports up to 400 kHz I²C; no Fast Mode Plus (1 MHz) capability | Lacks FM+ timing margin for high-throughput logging; suitable only where bus speed ≤400 kHz is guaranteed | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs speed requirement and existing layout uses SOIC-8 footprint |
| M95M01-RDW6TP | 1-Mbit SPI EEPROM (not I²C); 5V-only supply (4.5–5.5V); no WP pin - write protection via software command only | Requires SPI interface redesign and removes hardware-level write lock; incompatible with I²C bus topology | Choose only if migrating from SPI-based legacy designs and board space permits new routing for MOSI/MISO/SCK/CS |
Compared with AT24CM01-SHM-B, AT24C1024-SSHM-T offers identical pinout and voltage range but sacrifices 1 MHz FM+ performance, while M95M01-RDW6TP replaces I²C with SPI and eliminates hardware write protection - both require interface or security architecture reassessment.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the AT24CM01-SHM-B?
The AT24CM01-SHM-B supports 100 kHz (Standard Mode), 400 kHz (Fast Mode), and 1 MHz (Fast Mode Plus) I²C clock frequencies. Fast Mode Plus is enabled only when VCC is between 2.5V and 5.5V; below 2.5V, maximum speed reverts to 400 kHz. This dual-speed capability allows the AT24CM01-SHM-B to maintain compatibility with legacy 100/400 kHz systems while enabling faster firmware updates in newer designs.
Does the AT24CM01-SHM-B require external pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL lines?
Yes, the AT24CM01-SHM-B requires external pull-up resistors on both SDA and SCL lines because SDA is open-drain and SCL is an input. Microchip specifies maximum values of 10 kΩ for pull-ups, with recommended values of 4 kΩ for 400 kHz operation and 1.3 kΩ for 1 MHz Fast Mode Plus. The AT24CM01-SHM-B does not include internal pull-ups, so omission will result in bus failure.
How does the Write-Protect (WP) pin function on the AT24CM01-SHM-B?
When the WP pin of the AT24CM01-SHM-B is driven high (to VCC), all write operations - including byte, page, and erase - are inhibited across the entire 1-Mbit array. When WP is low (GND) or left floating (internally pulled down), normal write access is enabled. For safety-critical applications, Microchip recommends hardwiring WP to a controlled GPIO or fixed rail rather than relying on the internal pull-down.
What is the memory organization of the AT24CM01-SHM-B?
The AT24CM01-SHM-B organizes its 1-Mbit capacity as 131,072 words × 8 bits, segmented into 512 pages of 256 bytes each. This structure enables efficient page-write operations: up to 256 bytes can be written in a single self-timed cycle (≤5 ms), and partial-page writes are permitted. The addressing scheme uses A1/A2 pins for device selection and 17-bit word addressing for precise byte targeting.
Is the AT24CM01-SHM-B compatible with standard I²C protocol and ACK/NACK handshaking?
Yes, the AT24CM01-SHM-B fully complies with standard I²C protocol, including Start/Stop conditions, 9-bit transfer cycles (8 data + 1 ACK/NACK), and clock stretching during internal write cycles. It responds with ACK after successful device address match and NACK for invalid addresses or busy states. All timing parameters - including tHD.STA, tSU.STO, and tAA - meet I²C specification limits across its rated VCC and temperature ranges.
