Product details
Overview
AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a JEDEC EE1002/EE1002A-compliant Serial Presence Detect (SPD) EEPROM for DDR/DDR2/DDR3 DIMM modules, delivering 2 Kbit (256 × 8) nonvolatile memory with I²C-compatible 2-wire interface, 1.7–5.5 V operation, and hardware/software write protection. It supports SPD functions in memory subsystems requiring reliable, low-voltage configuration storage.
For engineers reviewing the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T datasheet, AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T pinout, AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T application, or AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T equivalent, key selection criteria include SPD compliance, dual software write protection modes (permanent and reversible), WP-pin-controlled full-array hardware protection, 16-byte page write capability, and industrial-grade UDFN packaging.
Technical Context
The AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T implements a dedicated SPD EEPROM architecture with fixed 256-word × 8-bit organization, optimized for DIMM module configuration data storage. Its I²C interface operates at 400 kHz (1.7–3.6 V) and 1 MHz (5.0 V), with Schmitt-triggered SCL/SDA inputs for noise immunity.
Write protection is implemented via three independent mechanisms: hardware-level WP pin control (full-array lock), permanent software write protect register (lower 128 bytes, irreversible), and reversible software write protect register (lower 128 bytes, programmable via specific command sequences). All protections coexist and are hierarchically enforced.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 2,048 bits (256 × 8), organized as 16 pages of 16 bytes - enables SPD data storage for DDR/DDR2/DDR3 DIMMs per JEDEC standard. |
| VCC Range | 1.7 V to 5.5 V - supports wide-bus voltage compatibility across legacy and modern DIMM power rails. |
| I²C Speed | Up to 1 MHz at 5.0 V; 400 kHz at 1.7–3.6 V - ensures timing compliance with SPD read cycles during system boot. |

Pinout & Package
AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T is packaged in an 8-pad, 2.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.6 mm Ultra Thin Dual Flat No-Lead (UDFN) package (8MA2), with exposed thermal pad and laser-marked Pin 1 identifier on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A2 | Hardware device address inputs | Enable up to eight AT34C02D devices on one I²C bus; must be hardwired to VCC or GND - floating states default to GND but are not recommended. |
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for VCC and signal currents; connects to PCB ground plane for noise suppression. |
| SDA | Serial data bidirectional line | Open-drain I²C data line requiring external pull-up; supports wire-OR with other open-drain devices on same bus. |
| SCL | Serial clock input | Positive-edge clock for data-in; negative-edge clock for data-out; Schmitt-triggered for robust noise rejection. |
| WP | Hardware write protect control | Direct logic-level control: tied to VCC → full-array write inhibit; tied to GND/floating → enables software protection modes. |
| VCC | Power supply input | Single-supply rail supporting 1.7–5.5 V; powers internal HV pump, timing circuitry, and I/O buffers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| JEDEC EE1002/EE1002A SPD Compliance | Fully satisfies DDR/DDR2/DDR3 DIMM serial presence detect requirements - eliminates need for custom SPD firmware or translation logic. |
| Dual Software Write Protection | Independent permanent (irreversible) and reversible registers for lower 128 bytes - allows secure factory programming and field-configurable protection. |
| Hardware WP Pin Control | Physical enable/disable of all writes regardless of software state - provides fail-safe protection against accidental or malicious overwrites. |
| 16-Byte Page Write Mode | Enables burst programming of up to 16 bytes per write cycle - reduces SPD initialization time versus byte-by-byte writes. |
| Self-Timed Write Cycle | Internal timing engine completes erase/write in ≤5 ms without host CPU polling overhead - simplifies firmware integration. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SPD EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C02D-MAHM-T | Same 2 Kbit density and UDFN-8 package, but lacks JEDEC EE1002/EE1002A SPD compliance and permanent software write protection. | Intended for general-purpose I²C EEPROM use, not DIMM SPD - requires external firmware mapping to emulate SPD structure. | Select only if SPD compliance is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs guaranteed JEDEC interoperability. |
| STMicroelectronics M24C02-RMN6TP | 2 Kbit I²C EEPROM in TSSOP-8; supports 1 MHz I²C but no SPD-specific features, no permanent software write protection, and no reversible RSWP register. | Targeted at generic configuration storage; lacks SPD address map, timing, and protection schemes required for DIMM modules. | Choose when footprint flexibility (TSSOP vs UDFN) is prioritized and SPD compliance is handled externally. |
Compared with AT24C02D-MAHM-T and M24C02-RMN6TP, the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T uniquely delivers JEDEC-mandated SPD functionality, dual-mode software write protection, and hardware WP enforcement - making it the only drop-in solution for DDR/DDR2/DDR3 DIMM SPD implementation without firmware adaptation.

FAQ
Is AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T JEDEC EE1002A-compliant for DDR3 SPD applications?
Yes, the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T is explicitly designed and qualified to JEDEC EE1002 and EE1002A standards for DDR, DDR2, and DDR3 DIMM Serial Presence Detect. Its memory map, I²C timing, and device addressing align with SPD requirements - enabling direct replacement in compliant DIMM designs without firmware modification. The AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T meets all mandatory SPD read/write timing and address allocation specifications defined in the JEDEC standard.
What is the function of the WP pin on AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T?
The WP (Write Protect) pin on AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T provides hardware-level write inhibition: when pulled to VCC, it disables all write operations to the entire 2 Kbit array regardless of software protection status. When tied to GND or left floating (internally pulled down), it enables software-based protection modes. This dual-layer protection ensures robust safeguarding of SPD data - critical for preventing accidental overwrites during system debug or field updates. The AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T datasheet specifies strict recommendations against leaving WP floating in production designs.
Does AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T support both permanent and reversible software write protection?
Yes, the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T implements two distinct software write protection mechanisms. The permanent software write protect (PSWP) register, once programmed, irreversibly locks the lower 128 bytes (0x00–0x7F); the reversible software write protect (RSWP) register can be enabled or disabled via specific command sequences (0x62h and 0x66h) with appropriate A0–A2 pin states. Both operate independently of the WP pin state when WP = GND. This dual-mode scheme allows flexible security partitioning - factory-programmed constants in the protected region and field-updatable parameters in the unprotected region - within the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T.
What package type does AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T use, and what are its key mechanical dimensions?
The AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T uses an 8-pad Ultra Thin Dual Flat No-Lead (UDFN) package designated 8MA2, measuring 2.0 mm × 3.0 mm × 0.6 mm with 0.5 mm pitch. It features a laser-marked Pin 1 indicator on the top surface and an orientation feature on the thermal pad underside. The package is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and uses NiPdAu lead finish (H-grade). Its compact footprint and thermal enhancement make it ideal for space-constrained DIMM PCB layouts - a key differentiator versus SOIC or TSSOP alternatives. The AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T package drawing is documented in Microchip's GPC-8MA2 specification.
Can AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T operate at 1.7 V while maintaining full I²C functionality?
Yes, the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T is fully functional across 1.7 V to 5.5 V, including I²C communication at 400 kHz down to 1.7 V. Its Schmitt-triggered SCL and SDA inputs ensure noise immunity at low voltages, and DC characteristics (e.g., VOL1 = 0.2 V at IOL = 0.15 mA, ISB1 = 1.0 μA standby current) are specified and tested at 1.7 V. This capability enables reliable SPD operation in low-power DDR memory subsystems and brown-out scenarios - a design requirement explicitly validated for the AT34C02D-MAHMHL-T in Microchip's characterization reports.
