Product details
Overview
AT25080N-10SI from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is an 8-Kbit SPI serial EEPROM organized as 1024 × 8 bits, operating across 2.7V–5.5V supply range with industrial temperature rating (−40°C to +85°C). It delivers 32-byte page writes, hardware/software write protection, and 1 million endurance cycles - deployed in embedded control modules requiring nonvolatile parameter storage under variable voltage conditions.
For engineers reviewing the AT25080N-10SI datasheet, AT25080N-10SI pinout, AT25080N-10SI application, or AT25080N-10SI equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.0 MHz SPI clock rate at 5V, self-timed 5 ms typical write cycle, block write protection granularity (1/4, 1/2, or full array), and compatibility with SPI Modes 0 and 3 in space-constrained industrial designs.
Technical Context
The AT25080N-10SI functions exclusively as an SPI slave device with dedicated SI (input) and SO (output) pins, supporting MSB-first data transfer and synchronous communication via CS, SCK, SI, and SO. Its internal instruction register accepts op-codes for READ, WRITE, WREN, WRDI, RDSR, and WRSR - all initiated on CS falling edge.
Write operations require explicit WREN instruction prior to WRITE; status register bits BP0/BP1 configure block protection levels, while WPEN enables hardware write protection via the WP pin. The HOLD pin suspends ongoing serial transfers without resetting sequence state, and the device remains in high-impedance SO state when deselected (CS high).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 8 Kbit (1024 × 8 bits) - sufficient for firmware configuration tables, calibration data, or device identity storage in microcontroller-based systems. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports dual-voltage system integration without level-shifting in mixed-signal industrial controllers. |
| SPI Clock Frequency | Up to 3.0 MHz at VCC = 5.0V - enables fast parameter read/write during boot or runtime reconfiguration. |
| Write Cycle Time | 5 ms typical - defines minimum delay between successive page writes; impacts real-time logging latency. |
| Endurance & Retention | 1 million write cycles / 100 years data retention - ensures long-term reliability in field-deployed equipment with infrequent but critical updates. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial ambient environments including motor drives, PLC I/O modules, and HVAC controllers. |
| Page Write Size | 32 bytes - optimizes burst programming efficiency while limiting risk of partial-page corruption during power loss. |
Pinout & Package
AT25080N-10SI is packaged in an 8-lead JEDEC SOIC (8S1) - 0.150" wide, gull-wing surface-mount package with standard footprint and thermal profile for reflow assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable signal; initiates serial communication and places SO in high-impedance when high. |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes data sampling on SI and SO; supports SPI Modes 0 and 3 only. |
| SI | Serial Data Input | Receives op-codes, addresses, and write data; ignored unless CS is low and device is write-enabled. |
| SO | Serial Data Output | Drives read data or status register contents; tri-states when CS is high or during HOLD assertion. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for VCC and all I/O signals; must be low-impedance to minimize noise coupling into SPI lines. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7V–5.5V input; powers internal logic and memory array; requires local 0.1 µF decoupling near pin. |
| WP | Write Protect | Hardware lock for status register and protected memory blocks when WPEN = 1 and WP = low. |
| HOLD | Communication Suspend | Pauses active SPI transfer without resetting internal address counter; requires SCK low to assert/deassert. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SPI Mode Compatibility | Supports only Modes 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and 3 (CPOL=1, CPHA=1) - eliminates miscommunication risk in fixed-mode host controller designs. |
| Block Write Protection | Configurable via status register to protect 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of memory - prevents accidental overwrite of critical bootloader or calibration sectors. |
| Hardware + Software Protection | Combines WP pin (hardware) and WREN/WRDI instructions (software) - enables layered security for field-updatable systems. |
| Self-Timed Write Cycle | No external timing control needed; internal timer manages erase-and-program sequence - simplifies host firmware timing logic. |
| Industrial Temperature Rating | Qualified from −40°C to +85°C - validated for operation in uncontrolled enclosures, outdoor electronics, and factory-floor automation. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| M95080-WMN6TP | Same 8-Kbit SPI EEPROM, but rated for 5.5V max only (no 1.8V support); 20 MHz max clock; SOIC-8 package identical. | Higher-speed interface suitable for hosts needing faster reads; lacks 1.8V option - not drop-in for ultra-low-power designs. | Select M95080-WMN6TP if host MCU runs SPI above 3 MHz and operates strictly at 2.7–5.5V. |
| BR24G08NUX-10 | I²C interface (not SPI); 1.7–5.5V supply; same 8-Kbit density; TSSOP-8 package; 1M endurance. | Requires I²C-capable host; no HOLD or WP pin - relies solely on software write protection. | Choose BR24G08NUX-10 only when board layout uses I²C routing and SPI pins are unavailable or contested. |
Compared with M95080-WMN6TP and BR24G08NUX-10, the AT25080N-10SI uniquely balances industrial temperature tolerance, SPI Mode 0/3 compatibility, hardware WP support, and 2.7–5.5V flexibility - making it optimal for legacy SPI-based industrial controllers where pinout and protocol stability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum SPI clock frequency supported by the AT25080N-10SI?
The AT25080N-10SI supports up to 3.0 MHz at VCC = 5.0V, 2.1 MHz at VCC = 2.7–5.5V, and 0.5 MHz at VCC = 1.8–3.6V. These values are specified in the AC Characteristics table and reflect guaranteed timing margins across voltage and temperature. The AT25080N-10SI must operate within these limits to ensure reliable command execution and data integrity.
Does the AT25080N-10SI support SPI Mode 1 or Mode 2?
No, the AT25080N-10SI explicitly supports only SPI Modes 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0) and 3 (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1), as confirmed in the Features section of the datasheet. Attempting Mode 1 or Mode 2 will result in incorrect data sampling or communication failure. The AT25080N-10SI's timing diagrams and functional description validate this restriction.
How does the HOLD pin function during an active SPI transaction?
The HOLD pin suspends serial communication while preserving the internal address counter and instruction state - provided it is asserted while SCK is low. The AT25080N-10SI ignores SI inputs and places SO in high-impedance during HOLD, resuming exactly where it left off upon deassertion. This behavior is defined in the HOLD section of the Functional Description and verified in the HOLD Timing diagram.
Can the AT25080N-10SI be used in a 1.8V system?
No - the AT25080N-10SI is rated for 2.7V to 5.5V operation only. For 1.8V systems, the correct variant is AT25080N-10SI-1.8 (ordering code suffix -1.8), which has different DC and AC characteristics and is separately qualified. Using the AT25080N-10SI below 2.7V violates absolute maximum ratings and risks unreliable operation or data corruption.
What happens if a WRITE command is issued without first executing WREN?
If the AT25080N-10SI receives a WRITE instruction while the Write Enable Latch (WEN bit) is cleared (0), it ignores the command entirely and returns to standby mode when CS goes high. No data is written, and the status register remains unchanged. This behavior is mandated by the WREN/WRTI protocol and confirmed in the Functional Description section of the AT25080N-10SI datasheet.
