Product details
Overview
AT25128B-SSPDGV-T from Microchip Technology is a 128 Kbit (16,384 × 8) SPI serial EEPROM optimized for automotive systems, supporting AEC-Q100 Grade 1 operation from −40°C to +125°C, 2.5V–5.5V supply, and 5 MHz clock rate at 5V. It features hardware write protection via WP pin, HOLD suspend functionality, and 64-byte page write capability.
For engineers reviewing the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T datasheet, AT25128B-SSPDGV-T pinout, AT25128B-SSPDGV-T application, or AT25128B-SSPDGV-T equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive temperature compliance, SPI Mode 0/3 compatibility, block-level write protection granularity (1/4, 1/2, or full array), and 1M write-cycle endurance with 100-year data retention.
Technical Context
The AT25128B-SSPDGV-T implements a synchronous SPI slave interface with fixed MSb-first data framing, rising-edge input sampling on SI, and falling-edge output latching on SO. Its internal architecture includes a nonvolatile STATUS register controlling WPEN, BP1/BP0, WEL, and RDY/BSY bits, enabling flexible software/hardware write protection and status polling.
It supports dual-voltage-grade operation: Grade 1 (2.5V–5.5V, −40°C to +125°C) and Grade 3 (1.7V–5.5V, −40°C to +85°C). The device integrates Power-on Reset (POR), automatic self-timed write cycles ≤5 ms, and high-impedance SO during CS deassertion or HOLD activation - critical for multi-device SPI bus sharing in safety-critical ECUs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 128 Kbits (16,384 × 8), organized as byte-addressable EEPROM array |
| Interface | SPI-compatible slave; supports Modes 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and 3 (CPOL=1, CPHA=1) |
| Max Clock Rate | 5 MHz at VCC = 5.0V; enables fast firmware parameter updates in real-time control loops |
| Write Endurance | 1,000,000 cycles per memory location - sufficient for logging, calibration, and configuration storage in 15+ year vehicle lifetimes |
| Data Retention | 100 years at TA = 55°C - ensures long-term reliability of stored calibration data without refresh |
| Operating Temp | AEC-Q100 Grade 1: −40°C to +125°C case temperature - validated for under-hood and transmission control module use |
| Supply Voltage | 2.5V to 5.5V (Grade 1); supports direct connection to 3.3V or 5V MCU I/O rails without level shifting |
| Page Write Size | 64 bytes per page write - reduces write latency vs. byte-write; enables efficient bulk parameter storage |
Pinout & Package
AT25128B-SSPDGV-T is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC package (3.9 mm × 4.9 mm, 1.27 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant and halide-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable; must be low before SCK edge to initiate command; requires pull-up resistor (≤10 kΩ) for robust power-up behavior |
| SO | Serial Data Output | Tri-state output; data valid on falling SCK edge; high-impedance when CS high or HOLD active |
| WP | Write-Protect | Hardware lock for STATUS register writes when WPEN=1; allows system-level protection independent of firmware state |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for VCC and all I/O; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into EEPROM reads |
| SI | Serial Data Input | Command/address/data input; sampled on rising SCK edge; MSb-first framing required |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Asynchronous master-generated clock; defines timing for SI sampling and SO output; idle polarity depends on SPI mode |
| HOLD | Suspend Control | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer without resetting sequence; enables time-critical MCU interrupts without corrupting EEPROM access |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.5V–5.5V nominal; must ramp monotonically at ≤0.1 V/µs; POR circuit ensures no spurious writes during power-up |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Grade 1 qualification ensures reliability in automotive ECU environments including engine control, ADAS sensors, and body electronics |
| Block Write Protection | Configurable via STATUS register (BP1/BP0) to protect 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of memory - prevents accidental overwrite of critical calibration tables |
| Hardware + Software Protection | Combines WP pin (hardware lock) and WREN/WRSR commands (software control) for layered security against unintended writes |
| Self-Timed Write Cycle | ≤5 ms maximum duration with automatic busy-flag (RDY/BSY) reporting - eliminates need for fixed delay timers in host firmware |
| Low Standby Current | 0.1 µA typical at 1.7V - minimizes quiescent power draw in always-on vehicle modules such as telematics gateways |
| Green Packaging | Lead-free, halide-free, RoHS-compliant SOIC - meets global automotive environmental compliance requirements (e.g., ELV, REACH) |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| M95128-DRMN6TP/K | 128 Kbit SPI EEPROM, AEC-Q100 Grade 1, but rated only to +105°C (not +125°C); uses different STATUS register layout and lacks HOLD pin | Acceptable for cabin modules or infotainment where ambient temp ≤+105°C; not suitable for under-hood TCM or ECU placement | Select if +125°C operation is unnecessary and HOLD functionality is unused in target design |
| BR24G128FJ-WE2 | 128 Kbit I²C EEPROM (not SPI), AEC-Q100 Grade 1, +125°C, but slower max clock (1 MHz), no hardware WP/HOLD, and different addressing scheme | Requires I²C bus resources and firmware changes; lacks suspend capability for time-critical interrupt handling | Choose only when SPI bus is saturated and I²C is available; verify timing margins for real-time parameter updates |
Compared with M95128-DRMN6TP/K and BR24G128FJ-WE2, the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T uniquely delivers full AEC-Q100 Grade 1 compliance up to +125°C, integrated HOLD functionality for deterministic interrupt response, and hardware write protection - making it the only option qualified for high-temperature, safety-critical SPI-based automotive control nodes.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range certified for the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T?
The AT25128B-SSPDGV-T is AEC-Q100 qualified to Grade 1, with a certified operating case temperature range of −40°C to +125°C. This rating is verified per the official Microchip DS20006269B datasheet and applies to the specific SOIC package variant denoted by the -SSPDGV-T suffix. Operation outside this range may compromise data retention or write endurance.
Does the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T support SPI Mode 3, and how is it configured?
Yes, the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T supports both SPI Mode 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and Mode 3 (CPOL=1, CPHA=1). No internal configuration is required - the device automatically adapts based on SCK idle polarity. In Mode 3, SCK remains high when CS is deasserted; the host MCU must maintain consistent idle polarity before and after each CS assertion to avoid communication errors.
How does the HOLD pin function during an active write cycle in the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T?
The HOLD pin has no effect on an ongoing internal write cycle in the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T. While HOLD can pause SPI command transfers (e.g., mid-READ or mid-WRITE instruction), it does not interrupt or suspend the self-timed EEPROM write operation once initiated. The RDY/BSY bit remains '1' until the write completes, regardless of HOLD state.
What is the factory default state of the STATUS register in the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T?
At shipment, the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T has WPEN = 0 (write-protection disabled), BP1/BP0 = 00 (no array protection), WEL = 0 (write latch inactive), and RDY/BSY = 0 (ready). The EEPROM array contains all 0xFFh bytes. These defaults allow immediate read/write access without prior configuration - critical for first-boot calibration routines.
Can the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T be used in 1.8V systems, and what are the limitations?
Yes - the AT25128B-SSPDGV-T supports 1.7V to 5.5V operation (Grade 3), so it functions reliably at 1.8V. However, at 1.8V, the maximum SCK frequency drops to ≤1 MHz (per AC characteristics table), and VOL/VOL2 specifications apply (VOL2 ≤0.2V at IOL = 0.15 mA). System designs must verify timing margins and logic thresholds at 1.8V.
