Product details
Overview
R1EX24512BTAS0I from Renesas Electronics is a 512-kbit (64-kword × 8-bit) two-wire serial interface EEPROM using MONOS memory technology, operating from 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply, supporting up to 1 MHz I²C clock at 2.5–5.5 V, and rated for −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range - deployed in embedded system configuration storage, sensor calibration data retention, and power-management parameter backup.
For engineers reviewing the R1EX24512BTAS0I datasheet, R1EX24512BTAS0I pinout, R1EX24512BTAS0I application, or R1EX24512BTAS0I equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TSSOP-8 pin mapping, real-world use cases, and validated alternative parts - all grounded in Renesas' R10DS0026EJ0500 Rev.5.00 preliminary datasheet.
Technical Context
This device implements a true two-wire I²C-compatible serial interface with SCL/SDA pins, internal address generator, and high-voltage charge pump for MONOS cell programming. It supports both byte-write and 128-byte page-write modes, with automatic address incrementing within pages and wraparound behavior on boundary overflow.
Write protection is hardware-controlled via the WP pin: logic-high disables all writes (full 512-kbit lock), while logic-low enables full read/write access. The device includes built-in noise suppression (50 ns filter on SCL/SDA), power-on reset circuitry, and voltage detector to prevent spurious writes during VCC ramp-up/down.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 512 kbit (65,536 × 8-bit words) - sufficient for firmware patch storage or multi-sensor calibration tables in compact systems |
| Interface | I²C two-wire serial bus - compatible with standard microcontroller I²C peripherals without additional level-shifting in 1.8–5.5 V systems |
| Max clock frequency | 1 MHz (at VCC ≥ 2.5 V); 400 kHz (at VCC ≥ 1.8 V) - enables fast configuration loading while maintaining robustness at low voltage |
| Page write size | 128 bytes per write cycle - reduces host CPU overhead and I²C transaction count when updating contiguous data blocks |
| Write endurance | 1,000,000 cycles minimum - supports frequent recalibration or logging in industrial monitoring applications |
| Data retention | 100 years minimum at +85°C - ensures long-term reliability of stored parameters without refresh in sealed or inaccessible devices |
| Supply current (standby) | 2.0 μA max at 5.5 V - critical for battery-backed or energy-harvesting systems requiring ultra-low quiescent power |
| Operating temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade deployment in motor drives, PLCs, and outdoor IoT nodes |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin plastic TSSOP (PTSP0008JC-B / JEITA code TTP-8DAV), 4.4 mm × 3.0 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, Ni/Pd/Au plating, lead-free and halogen-free compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A2 | Device address inputs | Hard-wired to VCC/VSS to select one of eight possible addresses on shared I²C bus; internally pulled down - safe default if left unconnected |
| VSS | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits and I/O drivers; must be low-impedance connection to avoid noise coupling into SDA/SCL |
| VCC | Power supply | Single 1.8–5.5 V supply powering memory array, logic, and I/O; requires 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor placed near pin |
| WP | Write protect control | Active-high hardware lock: logic-high disables all write operations across entire 512-kbit array; not internally pulled - must be driven |
| SCL | Serial clock input | Master-generated clock signal synchronizing all I²C transactions; accepts up to 1 MHz (2.5–5.5 V) with ≤300 ns rise/fall time |
| SDA | Serial data I/O | Open-drain bidirectional line requiring external pull-up; carries device address, memory address, and data; supports ACK/NACK signaling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MONOS memory technology | Enables 1.8 V operation and 100-year data retention without charge-pump degradation mechanisms seen in floating-gate EEPROMs |
| 128-byte page write | Reduces typical write time per kilobyte by >7× versus byte-write mode, minimizing bus occupation and host MCU active time |
| Write cycle time | 5 ms maximum - deterministic internal timing allows precise host polling or timeout-based flow control without complex status registers |
| Noise suppression | 50 ns glitch filter on SCL/SDA inputs prevents false start/stop detection from EMI or crosstalk in noisy industrial environments |
| Power-on reset | Guards against unintended writes during power ramp by holding internal logic in reset until VCC stabilizes above threshold |
| Halogen-free & RoHS | Complies with environmental regulations for industrial and consumer equipment; Au wire bonding ensures long-term interconnect reliability |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT24C512B-PU-2.7 | 512-kbit I²C EEPROM; 1 MHz max clock only at ≥2.7 V; no MONOS - lower data retention (40 years) and endurance (100k cycles) | Less suitable for long-life, high-write-count deployments; requires higher VCC for full speed | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs longevity requirements and system VCC stays ≥2.7 V |
| M95512-DFMN6TP | 512-kbit SPI EEPROM; 20 MHz interface; different protocol stack; no WP pin - write protection implemented via software lock bits | Requires SPI-capable host; incompatible with I²C-only designs; lacks hardware WP for fail-safe locking | Choose only if host already uses SPI peripherals and deterministic hardware write lock is not required |
Compared with AT24C512B-PU-2.7 and M95512-DFMN6TP, the R1EX24512BTAS0I delivers superior data retention (100 vs. 40 years), higher endurance (1M vs. 100k cycles), guaranteed 1.8 V operation, and dedicated hardware write protection - making it optimal for mission-critical industrial firmware and calibration storage where reliability trumps interface flexibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum I²C clock frequency supported by R1EX24512BTAS0I?
The R1EX24512BTAS0I supports up to 1 MHz I²C clock frequency when VCC is 2.5 V to 5.5 V, and up to 400 kHz when VCC is 1.8 V to 5.5 V. These limits are defined in the AC Characteristics table of the R10DS0026EJ0500 datasheet and reflect guaranteed timing margins across temperature and voltage. Exceeding these frequencies may result in unreliable communication or missed acknowledgments.
Does R1EX24512BTAS0I require an external pull-up resistor on the SDA line?
Yes, R1EX24512BTAS0I requires an external pull-up resistor on the SDA line because its SDA pin uses an open-drain output structure. The datasheet specifies that the pull-up value must be selected based on VOL, IOL, and total bus capacitance - typically 2.2 kΩ to 10 kΩ for standard-mode I²C. Failure to install a pull-up will prevent proper ACK/NACK signaling and data transmission.
How does the Write Protect (WP) pin function on R1EX24512BTAS0I?
On R1EX24512BTAS0I, the WP pin is active-high: when driven to VCC (VIH), it disables all write operations across the full 512-kbit memory array, and the device responds with NACK after address reception. When pulled low (VIL), full read/write access is enabled. Unlike A0–A2 pins, WP is not internally pulled - it must be actively driven to avoid floating-state malfunction.
What is the page write capability of R1EX24512BTAS0I?
R1EX24512BTAS0I supports 128-byte page write operations, allowing up to 128 sequential bytes to be written in a single I²C transaction. This reduces host-side overhead and bus occupancy versus byte-write mode. Address auto-increment wraps within the 128-byte page boundary - writing beyond the page end overwrites earlier bytes in the same page unless a new page address is issued.
Is R1EX24512BTAS0I compatible with standard I²C protocol implementations?
Yes, R1EX24512BTAS0I is fully compatible with standard I²C protocol specifications, including start/stop conditions, 7-bit addressing (with fixed "1010" device code), ACK/NACK handshaking, and repeated start support. It adheres to I²C timing requirements for tLOW, tHIGH, tSU.STA, and tHD.STA across its specified voltage and temperature ranges per R10DS0026EJ0500 Rev.5.00.
