Product details
Overview
M24C08-DRMN3TP/K from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive EEPROM delivering 8 Kbits (1024 × 8) of I²C-compatible nonvolatile memory with 1 MHz Fast-mode Plus support, 1.7–5.5 V supply range, and operation up to +125 °C. It features 16-byte page writes, embedded ECC for single-bit error correction, and a dedicated 16-byte identification page with permanent lock capability - deployed in engine control units, ADAS sensor modules, and battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the M24C08-DRMN3TP/K datasheet, M24C08-DRMN3TP/K pinout, M24C08-DRMN3TP/K application, or M24C08-DRMN3TP/K equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive temperature qualification (-40 °C to +125 °C), write protection via WC pin, identification page programmability, and compatibility with 1 MHz I²C bus timing under 1.7 V minimum VCC.
Technical Context
The device implements a fully compliant I²C target interface with START/STOP detection, ACK/NACK handshaking, and address decoding per device select codes 1010b (memory) and 1011b (ID page). Its internal architecture includes a Y/X decoder array, page latches, ECC logic per byte, and a high-voltage generator for write cycling.
It supports three write modes: byte write, 16-byte page write (with rollover), and ID page write/lock; all inhibited when WC = high. The identification page provides factory-programmed ST device code (20h/E0h/0Ah) plus user-configurable bytes, permanently lockable via a dedicated instruction sequence.

Pinout & Package
Supplied in TSSOP8 (DW, 169 mil width) package per ECOPACK2 environmental standard. Pin 1 identified by notch or dot marking; pin numbering follows standard counter-clockwise layout from top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SDA) | Serial Data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional bus line; requires external pull-up; transmits/receives address/data/ACK bits per I²C protocol. |
| 2 (VSS) | Ground Reference | System return path for VCC; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into SDA/SCL. |
| 3 (SCL) | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all data transfers; sampled on rising edge for input, controls output timing. |
| 4 (WC) | Write Control Input | Active-high hardware write protect: disables all data byte ACKs when high; allows address/ID reads regardless of state. |
| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to VSS/VCC per board layout constraints - no electrical function. |
| 6 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; no routing or termination required; avoids signal integrity impact on adjacent pins. |
| 7 (VCC) | Supply Voltage | Power input for core logic and EEPROM array; requires local 10–100 nF ceramic decoupling capacitor near pin. |
| 8 (E2) | Chip Enable Input | Configures LSB of device address (b3); sets select code to 1010/E2 or 1011/E2 - enables dual-device addressing on same bus. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C08C-SSHM-T (Microchip) | Same 8-Kbit capacity, 1 MHz I²C, but AEC-Q100 Grade 2 (−40 °C to +105 °C); no identification page or ECC. | Limited to cabin electronics or body control modules where 125 °C operation and ID page locking are not required. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs extended temperature and security features; verify absence of ECC in safety analysis. |
| BR24G08NUX-10 (ROHM) | 8-Kbit, AEC-Q100 Grade 1, 1.7–5.5 V, but max I²C speed 400 kHz; includes unique ID but no lockable ID page. | Suitable for gateway modules or infotainment backup storage where high-speed writes are unnecessary. | Prefer when lower bus speed suffices and ROHM's unique ID suffices for traceability - no permanent lock capability for calibration data. |
Compared with AT24C08C-SSHM-T and BR24G08NUX-10, the M24C08-DRMN3TP/K uniquely combines 125 °C operation, ECC, and a lockable identification page - making it the only option among the three qualified for powertrain-critical parameter storage with hardware-enforced immutability.

FAQ
What is the function of the WC pin, and how does it affect write operations?
The WC (Write Control) pin is an active-high hardware write protect. When driven high, it inhibits acknowledgment of all data bytes during write attempts - preventing unintended modifications while still allowing address transmission and read operations. It does not block ID page reads or lock status checks, and its state has no effect on read timing or ECC functionality.
How is the identification page different from main memory, and what happens when it is locked?
The identification page is a separate 16-byte region containing factory-coded ST device identifiers (20h/E0h/0Ah) and user-programmable fields. Once locked via the dedicated "lock ID" instruction, all subsequent write attempts to this page return NO ACK, and the contents become permanently read-only - including both factory and user bytes - with no hardware or software unlock mechanism.
Does the embedded ECC correct errors during write operations, or only during reads?
ECC operates exclusively during read operations: it detects and corrects single-bit errors in retrieved data before output on SDA. It does not validate or modify data written to the array; write integrity relies on I²C ACK/NACK handshaking and proper VCC stability during tW. ECC is transparent to the protocol and adds no timing overhead to writes.
Can multiple M24C08-DRMN3TP/K devices share the same I²C bus, and how is addressing managed?
Yes - up to two devices can coexist on one bus using the E2 pin to configure the device select code's b3 bit. With E2 tied to VSS, the code becomes 10100xxx (memory) or 10110xxx (ID page); with E2 tied to VCC, it becomes 10101xxx or 10111xxx. This enables independent addressing without external multiplexing or bus segmentation.
