Product details
Overview
AT28C010E-12TU-T from Microchip Technology is a 1-Mbit (128K × 8) paged parallel EEPROM with 120 ns read access time, JEDEC-standard byte-wide pinout, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It supports automatic 1–128-byte page writes with internal latching and timer, operates from a single 5V ±10% supply, and delivers 40 mA active current and 200 µA CMOS standby current for embedded system firmware storage.
For engineers reviewing the AT28C010E-12TU-T datasheet, AT28C010E-12TU-T pinout, AT28C010E-12TU-T application, or AT28C010E-12TU-T equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 100,000 write endurance, DATA Polling and Toggle Bit write-completion detection, hardware/software data protection, and compatibility with legacy SRAM-based memory interfaces in industrial control and instrumentation designs.
Technical Context
The AT28C010E-12TU-T implements a paged architecture with a 128-byte internal page register, enabling burst-aligned writes without external address/data bus hold. Its dual-line chip enable (CE) and output enable (OE) logic allows flexible bus contention management during mixed-read/write operations.
It integrates VCC sense (write inhibit below 3.8 V), 5 ms power-on delay, noise filtering on WE/CE (<15 ns pulse rejection), and optional software data protection (SDP) via three-byte command sequences - all supporting robust operation in noisy industrial environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8), directly replaceable in 128K-word SRAM-compatible sockets |
| Read Access Time | 120 ns max - enables direct substitution for fast static RAM in legacy microcontroller systems |
| Page Write Cycle | 10 ms max - reduces firmware update latency vs. byte-by-byte programming |
| Write Endurance | 100,000 cycles - validated for frequent field-upgrade applications like calibration data storage |
| Data Retention | 10 years at 85°C - ensures long-term reliability in unattended industrial deployments |
| Supply Voltage | 5V ±10% - interoperable with standard TTL/CMOS logic rails without level-shifting |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade control modules and test equipment |
Pinout & Package
AT28C010E-12TU-T is available in 32-lead TSOP (8 × 20 mm) with matte tin finish, compliant with JEDEC MO-142 BD. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner; NC pins are at positions 6 and 9 (TSOP).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus; A7–A16 define 128-byte page boundaries for page write alignment |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel interface; I/O7 provides DATA Polling complement output; I/O6 toggles during write |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low device select; must remain de-asserted ≥50 ns between reads to prevent data corruption |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; high-Z when asserted alone, enabling shared-bus arbitration |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates byte or page write on falling edge with CE low |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5V ±10%; internal VCC sense disables writes if voltage drops below 3.8 V |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm of VCC/GND pins |
| NC (pins 6, 9) | No Connect | Unbonded; must remain floating - no external pull-up/down or routing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Page Write | Internally latches up to 128 bytes with self-timed 10 ms programming - eliminates external timing logic |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | I/O7 complement output and I/O6 toggle provide real-time, bus-compatible write completion signaling |
| Hardware Write Protection | VCC sense, 5 ms power-on delay, and noise-filtered WE/CE inputs prevent spurious writes during brown-out |
| Software Data Protection (SDP) | User-enabled/disabled via 3-byte command sequence (AAh/55h/A0h) - secures firmware against accidental overwrite |
| Device Identification Area | 128 bytes at 1FF80H–1FFFFH accessible with A9 = 12 V - supports unique unit serialization and traceability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar parallel EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT28C010-12TU | Same die, 10K write endurance rating (vs. 100K for AT28C010E-12TU-T); identical speed, package, and pinout | Suitable for low-update-frequency applications where 10K cycles suffice (e.g., one-time factory programming) | Select AT28C010-12TU only if endurance requirements are ≤10,000 cycles and cost sensitivity outweighs longevity needs. |
| MX28LV160CBTI-12G | 16-Mbit capacity, 3V core (with 5V I/O tolerance), 120 ns access, but uses different command set and lacks SDP | Requires firmware adaptation for command protocol and lacks software write lock - unsuitable for drop-in replacement | Consider MX28LV160CBTI-12G only when higher density and lower voltage operation are prioritized over pin compatibility and data protection features. |
Compared with AT28C010-12TU and MX28LV160CBTI-12G, the AT28C010E-12TU-T uniquely combines 100K endurance, JEDEC-standard pinout, integrated SDP, and industrial temperature grade - making it the only option that preserves legacy design integrity while extending field life in upgrade-sensitive applications.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed write endurance of the AT28C010E-12TU-T?
The AT28C010E-12TU-T is rated for 100,000 write/erase cycles - confirmed in the official Microchip datasheet DS20006331A, Section 4.3 (DC Characteristics) and Table 6-1 (Package Marking Information), where the "E" suffix explicitly denotes Extended endurance. This exceeds the 10,000-cycle rating of the base AT28C010-12TU variant and supports frequent field updates in applications like calibration data logging.
Does the AT28C010E-12TU-T support both hardware and software write protection?
Yes, the AT28C010E-12TU-T implements dual-layer protection: hardware features include VCC sensing (disables writes below 3.8 V), 5 ms power-on delay, and 15 ns noise filtering on WE/CE; software protection is enabled via a three-byte command sequence (AAh → 55h → A0h) that locks writes until the disable sequence (AAh → 55h → 80h → AAh → 20h → 55h) is issued - fully documented in Sections 5.11 and 5.12 of the datasheet.
How is write completion detected on the AT28C010E-12TU-T?
Write completion on the AT28C010E-12TU-T is detectable via two independent methods: DATA Polling (reading I/O7 returns complement of last written byte until completion, then true data) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggles between 0 and 1 during programming, then stabilizes). Both are supported simultaneously and require no external components - detailed in Sections 5.14 and 5.16 of DS20006331A.
What package type and pin count does the AT28C010E-12TU-T use?
The AT28C010E-12TU-T uses a 32-lead Plastic Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP), Type I, measuring 8 × 20 mm per JEDEC MO-142 BD. Pin 1 is identified by a beveled corner; pins 6 and 9 are No Connect (NC). This matches the "T" in the part number and is distinct from the PLCC variant ("J"), as specified in Section 6.1 and Figure 1-2 of DS20006331A.
Is the AT28C010E-12TU-T compatible with standard 5V TTL/CMOS logic levels?
Yes, the AT28C010E-12TU-T features full 5V TTL/CMOS compatibility: input thresholds meet VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V; output drive meets VOL ≤ 0.45 V (IOL = 2.1 mA) and VOH ≥ 2.4 V (IOH = –400 µA), per Table 4-2 in DS20006331A. This allows direct connection to legacy 8051, Z80, and 68K-family microcontrollers without level shifters.
