Product details
Overview
AT25080B-TH-T from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is an 8-Kbit SPI serial EEPROM organized as 1024 × 8-bit memory, operating from 1.8 V to 5.5 V with a 20 MHz max clock rate at 5 V, 32-byte page write capability, and hardware/software write protection. It serves as nonvolatile configuration storage in industrial controllers, embedded sensors, and power management systems requiring low-voltage operation and high endurance.
For engineers reviewing the AT25080B-TH-T datasheet, AT25080B-TH-T pinout, AT25080B-TH-T application, or AT25080B-TH-T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, JEDEC TSSOP-8 package mapping, SPI Mode 0/3 interface behavior, block protection granularity, and validated alternative parts for design-in and BOM optimization.
Technical Context
The AT25080B-TH-T implements a synchronous slave SPI interface with separate SI/SO pins, MSB-first data framing, and op-code–driven command execution (WREN, WRITE, RDSR, WRSR). It requires CS assertion before instruction transmission and supports HOLD pin–based communication suspension without sequence reset.
Its internal architecture includes a nonvolatile status register with BP0/BP1 bits enabling 1/4-, 1/2-, or full-array write protection, plus WPEN control for hardware write protect pin enable/disable. All programming cycles are self-timed (≤5 ms), eliminating external erase steps and supporting page-mode writes across contiguous addresses.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 8192 bits (1024 × 8-bit words) - fixed address space usable for firmware parameters or calibration data storage |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V microcontrollers without level shifters |
| Max Clock Frequency | 20 MHz at VCC = 5.0 V - supports high-speed configuration reads during system boot |
| Write Endurance | 1 million cycles - sufficient for frequent recalibration or logging in industrial edge devices |
| Data Retention | 100 years at +25°C - ensures long-term reliability in unattended equipment |
| Page Write Size | 32 bytes - minimizes write latency when updating multi-byte parameter sets |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded applications |
Pinout & Package
AT25080B-TH-T is packaged in an 8-lead Plastic Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP), 4.4 mm body width, JEDEC-compliant footprint (package code 8A2), with NiPdAu lead finish for enhanced solderability and corrosion resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable signal; must be low to accept instructions and data on SI; SO enters high-Z when CS is high |
| SCK | Serial Clock | Master-generated clock input; timing-critical for setup/hold compliance; supports SPI Modes 0 and 3 |
| SI | Serial Data Input | Input-only path for op-codes, addresses, and write data; ignored during HOLD or write cycles |
| SO | Serial Data Output | Output-only path for read data and status register bits; high-impedance when CS is high or during write |
| GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for VCC and all I/O signals; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single supply input (1.8–5.5 V); powers internal logic and memory array; decoupling capacitor required |
| WP | Write Protect | Hardware lock for status register writes when WPEN = 1; no effect if WPEN = 0 or WP = high |
| HOLD | Communication Suspend | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer without resetting address counter; requires SCK low during assertion |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SPI Mode 0 & 3 Compatibility | Supports both common clock polarity/phase configurations, easing integration with diverse MCU families including 68HC11 and ARM Cortex-M |
| Block Write Protection | Four protection levels (none, 1/4, 1/2, full array) controlled via nonvolatile BP0/BP1 bits - prevents accidental overwrites of critical firmware sections |
| Hardware + Software Write Protection | Combines WP pin control (when WPEN = 1) with WREN/WRDI instructions - layered security for production programming and field updates |
| Self-timed Write Cycle | No external erase needed; ≤5 ms internal write completion; RDSR polling confirms readiness - simplifies host firmware timing logic |
| Low Standby Current | ≤0.1 µA at 1.8 V (ISB1) - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes and portable instrumentation |

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 | STMicroelectronics 8-Kbit SPI EEPROM; identical 1.8–5.5 V range, 20 MHz speed, TSSOP-8 package, but uses different status register bit layout and lacks HOLD pin | Requires firmware adaptation for status register access and no suspend capability during SPI transfers | Choose when HOLD functionality is unused and ST's qualification pedigree is preferred |
| BR24G08NUX-10 | Rohm 8-Kbit SPI EEPROM; same voltage range and TSSOP-8 footprint, but rated for −40°C to +105°C and features built-in write-cycle endurance counter | Better suited for extended-temperature automotive or outdoor infrastructure where ambient exceeds +85°C | Prefer when operating above +85°C or when lifetime usage monitoring is required |
Compared with M95080-DRMN6TP/K and BR24G08NUX-10, the AT25080B-TH-T provides unique HOLD pin support for interruptible SPI sessions and a proven BP0/BP1 protection scheme aligned with legacy Atmel-based designs, making it optimal for industrial control upgrades and long-lifecycle embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the package type and lead finish of AT25080B-TH-T?
AT25080B-TH-T uses an 8-lead Plastic Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP) with 4.4 mm body width (JEDEC MO-153 compliant, package code 8A2) and NiPdAu lead finish. This finish improves solder joint reliability and mitigates intermetallic growth in high-temperature reflow processes, making AT25080B-TH-T suitable for automated assembly in industrial-grade PCBs.
Does AT25080B-TH-T support SPI Mode 0 only, or other modes?
AT25080B-TH-T supports both SPI Mode 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0) and Mode 3 (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1), as confirmed in its official datasheet. While Mode 0 operation is fully documented and characterized, Mode 3 compatibility is explicitly stated in the Features section - enabling interoperability with microcontrollers that default to inverted clock polarity.
How does write protection work on AT25080B-TH-T?
AT25080B-TH-T implements dual-layer write protection: software-controlled via WRSR instruction to set BP0/BP1 bits (enabling 1/4, 1/2, or full array lock), and hardware-controlled via the WP pin when WPEN = 1. If WP is low and WPEN = 1, status register writes and protected memory writes are blocked - a safeguard against accidental corruption during system-level firmware updates.
What is the maximum clock frequency for AT25080B-TH-T at 3.3 V?
At VCC = 3.3 V, the AT25080B-TH-T supports up to 10 MHz SCK frequency, as specified in Table 0-4 AC Characteristics under "2.7–5.5 V" voltage column. This is lower than its 20 MHz rating at 5 V but remains sufficient for most real-time configuration reads and infrequent parameter writes in 3.3 V embedded systems.
Can AT25080B-TH-T be used in automotive applications?
AT25080B-TH-T is qualified for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. Microchip's official documentation states their EEPROM products are "not intended, authorized, or warranted for use as components in applications intended to support or sustain life," including automotive safety systems. Use in non-safety-critical automotive infotainment or body electronics requires explicit customer qualification.
