Product details
Overview
AT25080-10PI from Atmel is an 8-Kbit SPI serial EEPROM organized as 1024 × 8 bits, operating across 2.7V–5.5V supply range, supporting 3.0 MHz clock rate at 5V, with 32-byte page write capability and hardware/software write protection via WP pin and status register. It serves as nonvolatile configuration storage in industrial microcontroller systems requiring extended temperature reliability.
For engineers reviewing the AT25080-10PI datasheet, AT25080-10PI pinout, AT25080-10PI application, or AT25080-10PI equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, industrial-grade (-40°C to +85°C) operation details, SPI timing constraints, block protection mapping, and validated alternative parts for design continuity and sourcing resilience.
Technical Context
The AT25080-10PI implements a synchronous SPI slave interface compliant with Modes 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and 3 (CPOL=1, CPHA=1), using dedicated SI/SO lines and controlled by CS, SCK, WP, and HOLD pins. Its internal architecture includes an 8-bit instruction register, nonvolatile status register (WPEN, BP1/BP0, WEN, RDY), and automatic address incrementing during sequential reads.
It features self-timed internal write cycles (5 ms typical), no external erase requirement, and dual-layer data protection: software-enabled via WREN/WRSR instructions and hardware-enforced via WP pin when WPEN=1. Block write protection covers 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of the 1024-word array based on BP1/BP0 bit settings.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 8 Kbit (1024 × 8-bit words) - fixed capacity for compact firmware parameter or calibration storage. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports mixed-voltage industrial systems without level-shifting. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 3.0 MHz at VCC = 5.0 V - enables fast configuration read/write within MCU SPI peripheral limits. |
| Write Cycle Time | 5 ms typical - defines minimum interval between write commands; impacts boot-time initialization latency. |
| Endurance | 1 million write cycles - ensures long-term reliability in field-updatable control applications. |

Pinout & Package
AT25080-10PI is supplied in 8-pin PDIP (package code 8P3), measuring 0.300" wide per JEDEC MS-001 BA standard. Pinout matches both 8-pin PDIP and 8-lead SOIC footprints, enabling direct PCB footprint compatibility across package variants.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; must be low for serial communication; high-Z SO when CS high. |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes all data transfers; master-generated edge-triggered signal. |
| SI | Serial Data Input | Receives op-codes, addresses, and write data; MSB-first protocol. |
| SO | Serial Data Output | Drives read data and status bits; tri-stated when CS high or HOLD active. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return path; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7–5.5 V input; decoupling capacitor required near pin for stable SPI operation. |
| WP | Write Protect | Hardware lock for status register when WPEN=1; prevents accidental reconfiguration. |
| HOLD | Communication Suspend | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer without resetting sequence; requires SCK low to assert. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SPI Mode Compatibility | Supports Modes 0 and 3 - interoperates with diverse MCUs including 68HC11, ARM Cortex-M, and PIC without mode translation logic. |
| Page Write Capability | 32-byte burst writes - reduces total programming time vs. byte-wise writes; critical for efficient factory calibration upload. |
| Block Write Protection | Configurable 0%/25%/50%/100% array lock via BP1/BP0 - isolates critical firmware parameters from runtime corruption. |
| Write Enable Latch | WREN/WRDI instructions required before any write - enforces explicit software intent, preventing spurious writes during power transients. |
| Industrial Temperature Rating | -40°C to +85°C operation - validated for deployment in motor drives, PLC I/O modules, and outdoor metering hardware. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| M95080-DRMN6TP/K | 8-Kbit SPI EEPROM, 1.8–5.5 V, 20 MHz max clock, 5 ms write cycle, same 8-lead SOIC package. | Higher speed and wider voltage range; lacks HOLD pin and 1/4-array protection granularity. | Select when higher throughput or 1.8 V operation is required; verify HOLD functionality not needed in host design. |
| BR24G08FJ-WE2 | 8-Kbit I²C EEPROM, 1.7–5.5 V, 400 kHz standard mode, 5 ms write cycle, 8-lead TSSOP package. | I²C interface instead of SPI; no WP/HOLD pins; uses ACK-based write completion signaling. | Choose for I²C-bus systems where pin count or protocol reuse outweighs SPI performance needs. |
Compared with M95080-DRMN6TP/K and BR24G08FJ-WE2, the AT25080-10PI provides deterministic SPI timing, HOLD functionality for multi-master arbitration, and fine-grained 25% block protection-making it optimal for industrial MCU designs requiring robust, interruptible configuration storage.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the AT25080-10PI at 3.3 V?
The AT25080-10PI supports up to 2.1 MHz at VCC = 2.7–5.5 V per AC Characteristics table. At 3.3 V, this translates to a guaranteed 2.1 MHz operation - sufficient for most Cortex-M0/M3 SPI peripherals without overclocking risk. The AT25080-10PI datasheet specifies tWH/tWL ≥200 ns minimum, enforcing this limit for setup/hold compliance.
Does the AT25080-10PI require an external erase command before writing?
No, the AT25080-10PI does not require a separate erase command. All write operations are self-timed and automatically erase the target byte or page prior to programming. This simplifies firmware implementation - only WREN followed by WRITE instruction is needed, with RDSR polling for RDY=0 confirming completion.
How is block write protection configured on the AT25080-10PI?
Block write protection on the AT25080-10PI is set via BP0 and BP1 bits in the nonvolatile status register, programmed using the WRSR instruction. These bits define four protection levels: 0% (BP1=0,BP0=0), 25% (0,1), 50% (1,0), or 100% (1,1) of the 1024-word array. The AT25080-10PI retains these settings across power cycles.
Can the AT25080-10PI operate with a 1.8 V supply?
No - the AT25080-10PI variant is rated for 2.7 V to 5.5 V only. For 1.8 V operation, Atmel offers the AT25080-10PI-1.8 (ordering code suffix -1.8), which has different DC/AC specs including reduced max clock (0.5 MHz) and higher tWC (20 ms). Using AT25080-10PI below 2.7 V violates specification and risks data corruption.
What is the function of the HOLD pin on the AT25080-10PI?
The HOLD pin on the AT25080-10PI suspends ongoing SPI communication without resetting the internal address counter or instruction state. When asserted low while SCK is low, it places SO in high-impedance and ignores SI inputs. Resuming requires bringing HOLD high while SCK remains low - preserving full transaction context for deterministic multi-tasking in real-time systems.
