Product details
Overview
AT28HC64B-12SU-T from Atmel is a 64 Kbit (8K × 8) parallel EEPROM with JEDEC-standard byte-wide pinout, 120 ns read access time, hardware/software data protection, and page write capability supporting up to 64-byte writes in ≤10 ms. It operates from a single 5 V ±10% supply and targets firmware storage, configuration memory, and calibration data retention in industrial control modules.
For engineers reviewing the AT28HC64B-12SU-T datasheet, AT28HC64B-12SU-T pinout, AT28HC64B-12SU-T application, or AT28HC64B-12SU-T equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 120 ns tACC timing, CMOS/TTL-compatible I/O, 100 µA standby current, and software data protection enable/disable command sequences confirmed for this SOIC-28 variant.
Technical Context
The AT28HC64B-12SU-T implements a parallel interface with independent CE/OE/WE control logic enabling SRAM-like read/write cycles without external timing components. Its internal 64-byte page register latches address and data during page write operations, freeing the bus after initiation.
Write completion detection is supported via dual methods: DATA polling on I/O7 (complement-to-data during write, true data upon completion) and toggle-bit behavior on I/O6, both usable at any point during the write cycle. Hardware write inhibition activates below 3.8 V VCC and incorporates noise filtering for WE/CE pulses <15 ns.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 64 Kbit (8,192 × 8), sufficient for bootloader code or multi-parameter calibration tables |
| Read Access Time (tACC) | 120 ns maximum - defines minimum CPU wait-state requirement for zero-wait-state interfacing |
| Page Write Cycle Time | 10 ms maximum - enables burst programming of configuration blocks without host intervention |
| VCC Supply | 5 V ±10% - compatible with legacy 5 V logic systems without level-shifting |
| Standby Current (ISB1) | 100 µA maximum - supports low-power sleep modes in battery-backed systems |
| Endurance | 100,000 write/erase cycles - ensures field-upgradeable firmware retains integrity over product lifetime |
| Data Retention | 10 years at 85°C - validated for industrial temperature operation without refresh |
Pinout & Package
AT28HC64B-12SU-T is supplied in a 28-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, 0.300" wide, RoHS-compliant and green (Pb/halide-free). Pin layout follows JEDEC-standard byte-wide configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus selecting one of 8,192 memory locations; A6–A12 define page boundaries for 64-byte writes |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel data path; I/O7 used for DATA polling, I/O6 for toggle-bit write status indication |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; must be low with OE low and WE high for read access |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output control; disables outputs to high-Z when high, preventing bus contention |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; initiates byte or page write on falling edge with CE low |
| GND / VCC | Power Terminals | Ground reference and 5 V supply; decoupling capacitor required within 1 cm of pins per datasheet layout guidance |
| NC | No Connect | Pins 1 and 28 are unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or pull-up/down |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Page Write Operation | Up to 64 bytes written in single internal cycle (≤10 ms), reducing host CPU overhead vs. 8K individual byte writes |
| Software Data Protection (SDP) | User-enabled/disabled via documented 3-byte command sequence (AAh/55h/A0h); prevents accidental writes during power transitions |
| Hardware Write Inhibition | Automatic disable below 3.8 V VCC + 5 ms power-on delay + noise filtering (<15 ns pulses rejected) - eliminates brown-out corruption |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | Dual asynchronous write-complete detection: I/O7 complement/data toggle and I/O6 state toggling - no timer dependency in host firmware |
| Device Identification Area | 64 extra bytes (1FC0h–1FFFh) accessible via 12 V on A9 - enables unique serialization or revision tracking without external memory |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar parallel EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT28HC64B-12JU | Same die, PLCC-32 package instead of SOIC-28; identical 120 ns timing and 10 ms page write | Requires different PCB footprint and reflow profile; suited for socketed or high-vibration environments | Select when mechanical robustness or socket-based field upgrades are prioritized over board space |
| ST M48T02-120MH6 | 64 Kbit parallel EEPROM with built-in lithium backup and real-time clock; 120 ns access but no page write or SDP | Provides time-stamped logging capability; lacks software protection and fast multi-byte writes | Choose only if integrated RTC and battery-backed timekeeping outweigh loss of page write efficiency and SDP security |
Compared with AT28HC64B-12JU, the AT28HC64B-12SU-T saves board area and simplifies assembly; versus ST M48T02-120MH6, it delivers faster firmware updates and stronger write-integrity safeguards but requires external timekeeping.

FAQ
What is the maximum page write cycle time for AT28HC64B-12SU-T?
The maximum page write cycle time for AT28HC64B-12SU-T is 10 ms, as specified in the official Atmel datasheet (document 0274L–PEEPR). This value applies to the standard version; the optional AT28HC64BF variant achieves 2 ms but is not applicable to the AT28HC64B-12SU-T. The 10 ms timing is guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).
Does AT28HC64B-12SU-T support both hardware and software write protection?
Yes, AT28HC64B-12SU-T implements dual-layer write protection. Hardware protection includes VCC sense (inhibits writes below 3.8 V), 5 ms power-on delay, and noise filtering on WE/CE inputs. Software Data Protection (SDP) is enabled or disabled via a documented three-byte command sequence (AAh/55h/A0h for enable; AAh/55h/80h/AAh/20h for disable), which persists through power cycles.
What package type is used for AT28HC64B-12SU-T?
AT28HC64B-12SU-T uses a 28-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, 0.300" wide, with green (Pb/halide-free) construction. The "SU" suffix explicitly denotes this SOIC-28 variant, distinguishing it from the PLCC-32 ("JU") and TSOP-28 ("TU") versions. Pin 1 identifier and dimensions conform to JEDEC MS-013.
How is write completion detected on AT28HC64B-12SU-T?
AT28HC64B-12SU-T supports two independent, asynchronous write completion detection methods: DATA polling on I/O7 (returns complement of last written data until complete, then true data) and toggle-bit behavior on I/O6 (toggles between 0 and 1 during write, stabilizes upon completion). Both methods require no external timing components and can be polled at any time during the write cycle.
Is AT28HC64B-12SU-T compatible with standard 5 V TTL and CMOS logic levels?
Yes, AT28HC64B-12SU-T features CMOS and TTL compatible inputs and outputs. Input thresholds meet VIH ≥ 2.0 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V; output drive meets VOH ≥ 2.4 V (at -400 µA) and VOL ≤ 0.4 V (at 2.1 mA), ensuring reliable interfacing with legacy 5 V microcontrollers, FPGAs, and ASICs without level shifters.
