Product details
Overview
R1EX24008ATAS0I from Renesas Electronics is an 8 kbit (1024 × 8-bit) two-wire serial interface EEPROM with I²C-compatible bus operation, 400 kHz clock frequency, 1.8–5.5 V single-supply operation, and TSSOP-8 packaging. It delivers high reliability via MONOS memory technology, supports 16-byte page writes, and is rated for −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature operation in embedded control and sensor calibration applications.
For engineers reviewing the R1EX24008ATAS0I datasheet, R1EX24008ATAS0I pinout, R1EX24008ATAS0I application, or R1EX24008ATAS0I equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation guidance, and confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application-level differences.
Technical Context
This device implements a true I²C-compliant two-wire serial interface with SCL/SDA bidirectional signaling, internal address counter for sequential reads, and hardware write protection via the WP pin. Its MONOS-based memory cell architecture enables 1,000k endurance cycles at 25°C and 100-year data retention under same conditions.
The R1EX24008ATAS0I uses device addressing with hardwired A2 (A0/A1 are NC), supports byte and 16-byte page write modes, and features automatic acknowledge polling during internal write cycles. All address pins and WP are internally pulled down, enabling functional operation with floating connections - though external tie-offs are recommended for noise immunity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 8 kbit (1024 × 8-bit) - supports firmware parameter storage, calibration tables, and configuration registers in space-constrained systems. |
| Interface | I²C two-wire serial - requires only SCL and open-drain SDA with pull-up resistors; compatible with standard microcontroller I²C peripherals. |
| Max clock frequency | 400 kHz - enables ~100 μs per byte read/write in standard-mode I²C, suitable for non-real-time configuration updates. |
| Supply voltage | 1.8 V to 5.5 V - interoperable across 1.8 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Write cycle time | 5 ms max - defines minimum interval between write commands; requires ACK polling or fixed delay before next access. |
| Endurance | 1,000k cycles @25°C - supports frequent recalibration or logging in industrial monitoring nodes over multi-year deployments. |
| Data retention | 100 years @25°C - ensures long-term validity of stored calibration coefficients or security keys without refresh. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin TSSOP (PTSP0008JC-B / JEITA code TTP-8DAV), 4.4 mm × 3.0 mm footprint, 0.65 mm pitch, lead-free and halogen-free (#S0 suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 A0 | No connection | Internally disconnected; must be left unconnected or tied to VSS/VCC - no effect on device operation. |
| 2 A1 | No connection | Internally disconnected; functionally inert; no impact on addressing or memory mapping. |
| 3 A2 | Device address input | Selects one of two possible I²C addresses (1010xxx0/1); tied low by default, enabling base address 0x50 when externally grounded. |
| 4 VSS | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry and I/O; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 5 VCC | Power supply | Single 1.8–5.5 V supply; bypass capacitor (0.1 μF ceramic) mandatory between VCC and VSS near the pin. |
| 6 WP | Write protect input | Active-high hardware lock: high = full 8 kbit write protection; low or floating = full read/write access. |
| 7 SCL | Serial clock input | Master-generated clock signal; rise/fall times ≤300 ns required; noise suppression active for pulses <50 ns. |
| 8 SDA | Serial data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line; requires external pull-up resistor; timing referenced to SCL low period for data stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MONOS memory technology | Enables 1,000k write cycles and 100-year data retention without wear leveling or refresh circuitry. |
| 16-byte page write | Reduces average write latency by up to 16× versus byte-write mode; ideal for contiguous configuration block updates. |
| 1.8 V operation support | Permits direct integration into ultra-low-power sensor nodes and battery-backed systems without voltage translation. |
| Internal pull-down on A0/A1/A2/WP | Allows functional operation with unconnected address and WP pins - simplifies PCB layout and reduces BOM count. |
| ACK polling support | Enables software-driven wait-for-complete without fixed delays; improves system responsiveness during write-intensive sequences. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C08D-SSHM-T (Microchip) | Same 8 kbit capacity, I²C interface, and TSSOP-8 package; 1 MHz max clock vs. 400 kHz; 400 kcycles endurance. | Higher speed supports faster bulk reads; lower endurance limits use in high-frequency logging scenarios. | Prefer for systems requiring >400 kHz I²C throughput where endurance >400k cycles is not critical. |
| M95080-DRE6TG (STMicroelectronics) | Same 8 kbit, TSSOP-8, and 1.8–5.5 V range; SPI interface instead of I²C; 5 ms write cycle; 1M endurance. | Requires SPI master instead of I²C; incompatible bus protocol prevents drop-in replacement. | Select when board already uses SPI peripherals and higher endurance is prioritized over interface compatibility. |
Compared with R1EX24008ATAS0I, AT24C08D offers higher bandwidth but reduced write endurance, while M95080-DRE6TG trades I²C compatibility for SPI-native operation and extended cycle life - neither is pin- or protocol-compatible, making R1EX24008ATAS0I the optimal choice for I²C-based industrial designs requiring proven 1M-cycle reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by the R1EX24008ATAS0I?
The R1EX24008ATAS0I supports a maximum I²C clock frequency of 400 kHz, compliant with standard-mode I²C specifications. This allows reliable communication with most microcontrollers without requiring high-speed mode support. The device guarantees timing parameters including tLOW ≥1200 ns and tHIGH ≥600 ns at this rate, and operates across the full 1.8–5.5 V supply range. Exceeding 400 kHz may result in failed ACK or data corruption.
Does the R1EX24008ATAS0I require external pull-up resistors on SDA and SCL lines?
Yes, the R1EX24008ATAS0I requires external pull-up resistors on both SDA and SCL lines because its SDA pin uses an open-drain structure and SCL is a passive input. Recommended values range from 2.2 kΩ to 10 kΩ depending on bus capacitance and desired rise time; Renesas specifies VOL ≤0.4 V at IOL = 3.0 mA (VCC = 2.7–5.5 V), guiding proper resistor selection to meet I²C voltage thresholds.
How does the write protect (WP) pin function on the R1EX24008ATAS0I?
On the R1EX24008ATAS0I, the WP pin is active-high: when driven high (VIH ≥0.7×VCC), it disables all write operations across the full 8 kbit array and returns NO ACK after address transmission. When low or floating (internally pulled down), full read/write access is enabled. This provides hardware-level protection against accidental overwrites during power transitions or firmware faults - a critical feature for calibration-critical systems.
What is the memory organization and addressing scheme of the R1EX24008ATAS0I?
The R1EX24008ATAS0I contains 1024 words of 8-bit memory, organized as a linear 10-bit address space (0x000 to 0x3FF). Device addressing uses the fixed I²C code "1010", followed by A2 (pin 3) as the LSB of the 3-bit device address, and the R/W bit. Memory addressing within the device uses 10 bits (a9–a0), with a9 and a8 mapped to A2 and unconnected A1/A0 respectively - enabling two devices per bus using A2 alone.
Can the R1EX24008ATAS0I operate reliably at 1.8 V supply voltage?
Yes, the R1EX24008ATAS0I is fully specified for 1.8 V operation: DC characteristics include ISB ≤2.0 μA, ICC1 ≤1.0 mA (read), and ICC2 ≤3.0 mA (write) at VCC = 1.8 V. AC timing remains valid down to 1.8 V, with VOL ≤0.2 V at IOL = 1.5 mA. This enables direct interfacing with 1.8 V FPGAs, ultra-low-power MCUs, and battery-powered sensors without level-shifting circuitry.
