Product details
Overview
AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 from Atmel (now Microchip) is a 512 Kbit serial SPI EEPROM organized as 65,536 × 8-bit words, operating from 2.7V to 5.5V with 5 MHz max clock rate at 2.7V, 100K write endurance, and >40-year data retention. It serves as nonvolatile configuration storage in industrial controllers, power supply monitors, and embedded sensor nodes requiring low-voltage, page-write capability.
For engineers reviewing the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 datasheet, AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 pinout, AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 application, or AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 equivalent, key selection criteria include SPI Mode 0/3 compatibility, hardware/software write protection (WP/HOLD pins), 128-byte page write constraint, and JEDEC 16-lead SOIC package with industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 implements a synchronous 3-wire SPI slave interface (CS/SCK/SI/SO) with MSB-first transmission, no erase cycle required, and fully self-timed internal write cycles (10 ms typical). It supports dual voltage operation (2.7–5.5V), with clock rate scaling per VCC: 5 MHz at 2.7V, 10 MHz at 5V.
Block write protection is configured via nonvolatile status register bits BP1/BP0 to lock top 1/4, top 1/2, or entire memory array; WPEN bit enables/disables hardware protection via the WP pin. HOLD pin suspends ongoing serial transfers without resetting sequence state.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 524,288 bits (65,536 × 8-bit words) - supports firmware parameter storage for mid-complexity embedded systems. |
| Interface | SPI-compatible, Modes 0 (0,0) and 3 (1,1) - interoperable with standard microcontroller SPI peripherals without mode translation logic. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7V to 5.5V - enables direct integration into 3.3V and 5V systems without level-shifting. |
| Max Clock Rate | 5 MHz at 2.7V - defines maximum sustained read/write throughput under low-voltage operation. |
| Write Endurance | 100,000 cycles - sufficient for infrequent configuration updates over 10+ years of field operation. |
| Data Retention | >40 years - ensures long-term reliability for unattended industrial deployments. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade environmental stress without derating. |
| Write Cycle Time | 10 ms typical - determines minimum interval between consecutive write commands; not programmable. |
Pinout & Package
AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 uses a 16-lead JEDEC SOIC package (16S2), 0.300" wide body, with 1.27 mm lead pitch. Pin 1 is marked by notch or bevel; leads are gull-wing shaped and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (CS) | Chip Select | Active-low enable: pulls device out of standby and initiates SPI command sequence on falling edge. |
| 2 (SO) | Serial Data Output | Tri-state open-drain output: drives read data during CS low; high-impedance when deselected or during HOLD. |
| 3–4 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; must remain unconnected per datasheet - floating or tied to GND/VCC invalidates operation. |
| 5–8 (NC) | No Connect | Reserved for future use; electrically isolated - no routing or termination permitted. |
| 9 (WP) | Write Protect | Hardware lock: when WPEN=1 and WP=low, blocks all status register writes and protected memory writes. |
| 10 (GND) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for VCC current and signal references; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| 11 (VCC) | Power Supply | Single-supply input: accepts 2.7–5.5V; bypass capacitor (0.1 µF) mandatory within 10 mm of pin. |
| 12 (HOLD) | Serial Suspend | Pauses active SPI transfer: must be asserted low while SCK is low; resumes on rising edge with SCK low. |
| 13–14 (NC) | No Connect | Unused internal pads - no electrical function; leave unconnected per JEDEC SOIC mechanical spec. |
| 15 (SCK) | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated edge-triggered clock: controls SI sampling and SO timing; max 5 MHz at 2.7V. |
| 16 (SI) | Serial Data Input | Command/address/data input: sampled on SCK rising edge in Mode 0; high-impedance when CS high. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 128-byte Page Write Only | Enforces atomic 128-byte programming bursts - prevents partial-page corruption but requires host-side buffering. |
| Dual-Voltage Operation | Supports 2.7–5.5V and 1.8–5.5V variants - allows shared PCB design across 3.3V and 5V platforms with BOM flexibility. |
| Hardware + Software Protection | WP pin + WRSR-configurable BP1/BP0 bits enable layered security - protects calibration data against accidental overwrite. |
| HOLD Pin Functionality | Preserves SPI state during interrupt latency - eliminates need for retransmission or address tracking in real-time systems. |
| Industrial Temperature Range | –40°C to +85°C operation - validated for deployment in motor drives, PLCs, and outdoor telemetry without thermal derating. |
| No Pre-Erase Requirement | Direct byte/page overwrite - simplifies firmware logic and reduces write latency compared to flash-based alternatives. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| M95512-DRMN6TP/K | 512 Kbit SPI EEPROM, 16-pin SOIC, 1.8–5.5V, 10 MHz @ 5V, 400K endurance | Higher endurance and faster clock at 5V; lacks HOLD pin and top-1/4 protection granularity | Preferred for high-write-frequency logging where HOLD is unused and 5V operation dominates. |
| BR25H512FJ-2CE2 | 512 Kbit SPI EEPROM, 8-pin SOP, 2.5–5.5V, 20 MHz @ 5V, 1M endurance, built-in error correction | Smaller 8-pin package, higher speed, ECC support; no WP/HOLD pins, different pinout | Chosen when board space is constrained and data integrity under radiation/EMI is critical. |
Compared with M95512-DRMN6TP/K and BR25H512FJ-2CE2, the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 offers unique HOLD functionality for deterministic SPI pause/resume and finer-grained (top-1/4) block protection - making it optimal for real-time industrial controllers where communication interruption handling and selective memory lockdown are essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 at 2.7V?
The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 supports a maximum SCK clock frequency of 5 MHz when operated at 2.7V, as specified in Table 4 of the datasheet. This limit scales with supply voltage: 10 MHz at 5V and 2 MHz at 1.8V. Exceeding 5 MHz at 2.7V violates AC timing parameters including tWH, tWL, and tSU, risking data corruption during read/write operations. The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 must be clocked within this bound for guaranteed functionality.
Does the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 support individual byte writes?
No, the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 only supports 128-byte page write operations - byte-level writes are not implemented. Attempting to write fewer than 128 bytes within a page results in undefined content for that page. Host firmware must buffer up to 128 bytes before issuing a WRITE command, and address alignment must be to 128-byte boundaries (A0–A6 = 0). The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 enforces this constraint in hardware; no software workaround exists.
How does the HOLD pin function during an active SPI transaction on the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7?
The HOLD pin on the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 suspends serial communication without resetting the internal address counter or command state. To activate HOLD, the pin must be driven low while SCK is low; the SO pin enters high-impedance and SI inputs are ignored. Resumption occurs on the rising edge of HOLD while SCK remains low. The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 retains full context - next SCK edge continues from the exact bit position where suspension occurred.
Can the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 be used in a 5V system without level shifting?
Yes, the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 is fully compatible with 5V systems: its VCC range is 2.7V to 5.5V, and DC characteristics (VIH, VOL, VOH) are specified up to 5.5V. Logic thresholds scale with VCC (VIH ≥ 0.7×VCC), so 5V-tolerant microcontrollers can drive CS, SCK, SI, WP, and HOLD directly. The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 requires no external level shifters when interfaced to 5V SPI masters.
What package type is used by the AT25HP512-10PI-2.7, and what are its key mechanical dimensions?
The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 uses a 16-lead JEDEC SOIC package (16S2), 0.300" wide body. Key dimensions: length 0.413", width 0.299", height 0.104", lead pitch 0.050", and gull-wing lead profile. It complies with JEDEC MS-013 Variation AA and is RoHS-compliant. The AT25HP512-10PI-2.7 is not pin-compatible with 8-lead SOIC or PDIP variants of the same family due to differing pin count and NC placement.
