Product details
Overview
AT25HP512C1-10CI-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 supports SPI Modes 0 and 3, 128-byte page writes only, and hardware/software block protection for industrial control and embedded firmware storage.
For engineers reviewing the AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 datasheet, AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 pinout, AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 application, or AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 8-lead Leadless Array Package (8CN1), industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), 2.7V supply compatibility, HOLD/ WP pin functionality, and absence of byte-write support.
Technical Context
The AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 implements a synchronous SPI slave interface with separate SI/SO lines, MSB-first transmission, and op-code–driven command set (WREN, WRITE, RDSR, WRSR). It requires explicit Write Enable before programming and auto-resets to write-disable state post-write cycle.
Its architecture includes a nonvolatile status register with BP0/BP1 for 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% array protection and WPEN bit enabling/disabling hardware write protection via the WP pin. The 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) - sufficient for boot code, calibration tables, or configuration storage in resource-constrained systems. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - enables direct interfacing with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers without level-shifting. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 5 MHz at VCC = 2.7V - defines maximum SPI transaction speed under low-voltage operation. |
| Write Endurance | 100,000 cycles - supports frequent field-updatable parameters in industrial logging or metering applications. |
| Data Retention | >40 years at +85°C - ensures long-term reliability for unattended equipment and infrastructure deployments. |
| Page Write Size | 128 bytes only - mandates aligned, burst-oriented writes; byte-wise updates require full-page read-modify-write. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including factory automation and outdoor telemetry. |
Pinout & Package
AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 uses an 8-lead Leadless Array Package (8CN1), 8.00 mm × 5.00 mm × 1.04 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable: initiates SPI communication; high-Z SO when CS high. |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock synchronizing SI/SO data transfer; supports Modes 0 and 3. |
| SI | Serial Data Input | Receives op-codes, addresses, and write data; ignored during HOLD or write cycles. |
| SO | Serial Data Output | Drives read data or status bits; enters high-impedance state when CS high or during HOLD. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for VCC and I/O; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7V–5.5V input; powers internal logic and memory array; decoupling capacitor required. |
| WP | Write Protect | Hardware lock: disables status register writes when WP low and WPEN=1; configurable via WRSR. |
| HOLD | Communication Suspend | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer without resetting address counter; requires SCK low to assert. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SPI Mode 0 & 3 Compatibility | Interoperates with common MCU SPI peripherals without custom timing or polarity inversion logic. |
| Block Write Protection (BP0/BP1) | Enables selective locking of top 25%, 50%, or 100% of memory - prevents accidental overwrite of critical firmware sections. |
| HOLD Pin Functionality | Allows master to temporarily halt serial transfers (e.g., during interrupt servicing) without losing sequence context or reinitializing. |
| Separate Program Enable/Disable | WREN/WRDI instructions provide software-controlled write gating independent of WP pin state - enhances system-level security. |
| 128-Byte Page Write Only | Optimizes write throughput for bulk updates but eliminates partial-page corruption risk - no partial writes possible. |
Applications

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, 1.8–5.5V, 10 MHz @ 5V, 8-lead SOIC package, no HOLD pin. | Lacks HOLD functionality; requires software-managed pause/resume; better suited for cost-sensitive, non-interrupt-driven systems. | Select if HOLD is unused and higher clock speed at 5V is prioritized over suspend capability. |
| AT25DF512C-SSHN-B | 512 Kbit SPI DataFlash, 2.3–3.6V only, 70 MHz DTR mode, internal page buffer, sector erase support. | Requires different command set and erase management; incompatible voltage range; optimized for firmware image storage, not random-access config. | Choose only for high-speed sequential reads/writes in 3.3V-only designs where erase granularity matters. |
Compared with M95512-DRMN6TP/K and AT25DF512C-SSHN-B, the AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 uniquely balances industrial voltage range, HOLD pin support, and simple page-write protocol - making it optimal for deterministic, interrupt-aware embedded control where robustness outweighs raw speed.

FAQ
What is the package type and footprint of AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7?
AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 uses an 8-lead Leadless Array Package (8CN1) with 8.00 mm × 5.00 mm body size, 1.27 mm pitch, and exposed pad-less construction. Its footprint matches JEDEC-standard LAP layouts and requires solder paste stencil optimization for void-free reflow. This package offers superior thermal performance and board space savings versus SOIC or PDIP alternatives.
Does AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 support byte-level writes?
No, AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 supports only 128-byte page writes - it does not allow single-byte or partial-page programming. Attempting a write with fewer than 128 bytes results in undefined content in that page. Full-page read-modify-write sequences must be implemented in firmware to update individual bytes.
How does the HOLD pin function during SPI communication?
The HOLD pin on AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 suspends ongoing SPI transfers without resetting the internal address counter or command state. To activate, HOLD must be pulled low while SCK is low; resuming requires returning HOLD high while SCK remains low. During HOLD, SI is ignored and SO stays high-Z, preserving synchronization for time-critical interrupt handling.
What protection mechanisms prevent unintended writes to AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7?
AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 employs dual-layer protection: software-based via WREN/WRDI instructions and status register BP0/BP1 bits, and hardware-based via the WP pin when WPEN=1. Both mechanisms can be used simultaneously - e.g., WP pin locks status register writes while BP bits protect memory regions - ensuring defense-in-depth against accidental or malicious modification.
Is AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 compatible with 1.8V systems?
No, AT25HP512C1-10CI-2.7 is specifically rated for 2.7V to 5.5V operation. For 1.8V systems, the pin-compatible AT25HP512C1-10CI-1.8 variant must be used. Mixing voltage grades risks unreliable communication, increased bit errors, or permanent damage due to VIH/VIL threshold violations outside the specified range.
