Product details
Overview
X28HC64SIZ-12 from Intersil is a 64 kbit (8k × 8), byte-alterable EEPROM with 5 V-only operation, 120 ns access time, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), housed in a 28-lead SOIC package. It supports page write (64-byte), DATA polling, and Toggle Bit polling for end-of-write detection, and features hardware and software data protection - used in embedded control systems requiring nonvolatile parameter storage.
For engineers reviewing the X28HC64SIZ-12 datasheet, X28HC64SIZ-12 pinout, X28HC64SIZ-12 application, or X28HC64SIZ-12 equivalent, key selection considerations include its JEDEC-standard byte-wide memory interface, 100,000 write endurance, 100-year data retention, RoHS-compliant 28-lead SOIC (300 mil) packaging, and compatibility with legacy 5 V microcontroller bus architectures.
Technical Context
The X28HC64SIZ-12 implements a floating-gate CMOS EEPROM array with dual-line control (CE/OE/WE) enabling bus contention-free read/write operations. Its architecture supports both CE- and WE-controlled write cycles, with address latching on the later falling edge and data latching on the earlier rising edge of CE or WE.
It delivers deterministic timing: 120 ns read cycle time, 2 ms typical byte/page write cycle, and 0.25 s full-memory rewrite. End-of-write status is signaled via I/O7 (DATA Polling) or I/O6 (Toggle Bit), eliminating need for external wait-state logic or interrupt lines in host systems.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 28-lead SOIC (300 mil), RoHS-compliant, JEDEC MS-013-AE compliant, M28.3 drawing. Body dimensions: 17.70 mm × 7.40 mm × 2.65 mm (L × W × H).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus selects one of 8,192 memory locations; A12 enables full 64 kbit addressing |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel interface; carries data during read, writes, and status polling (I/O6/I/O7) |
| CE | Chip Enable | Primary device select; must be LOW for all read/write operations; enables low-power standby when HIGH |
| OE | Output Enable | Controls output buffers; LOW enables data output during read; HIGH places I/Os in high-Z state |
| WE | Write Enable | Initiates write cycles; falling edge latches address/data; rising edge triggers internal programming |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V supply; powers core logic and EEPROM array; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling |
| VSS | Ground | Reference return path; must be connected to system ground plane with low-inductance routing |
| NC | No Connect | Pins 1, 2, 27, 28 - internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to ground per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT28C64B-15PU | 150 ns access time; 5 V only; same 28-pin PDIP/SOIC footprint but not pin-compatible due to OE/WE signal ordering | Designed for slower 5 MHz bus systems; lacks Toggle Bit polling; uses different software unlock sequence | Select only if 150 ns timing is acceptable and existing firmware can be modified for AT28C64B's status polling method |
| MN64K8000ZP | 120 ns access; industrial temp; 28-pin SOIC; identical pinout and command set per datasheet MN64K8000 Rev 1.2 | Same JEDEC byte-wide interface; supports identical page write and DATA Polling; RoHS-compliant | Drop-in replacement with verified functional and timing equivalence; recommended for new designs requiring second-source assurance |
Compared with AT28C64B-15PU, X28HC64SIZ-12 offers faster access and robust dual-status polling; versus MN64K8000ZP, it shares identical timing and interface behavior but originates from a different manufacturing lineage with distinct reliability qualification history.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the X28HC64SIZ-12?
The X28HC64SIZ-12 is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This specification is confirmed in the Ordering Information table (Note 2, 4, 6) and Recommended Operating Conditions section of the FN8109 datasheet. The "I" in the part number explicitly denotes the industrial grade, distinguishing it from commercial-grade variants like X28HC64SZ-12 (0°C to +70°C). Thermal resistance data (θJA = 46°C/W) further validates its suitability for convection-cooled industrial enclosures.
Does the X28HC64SIZ-12 require external high voltage for programming?
No, the X28HC64SIZ-12 operates with a single 5 V supply and requires no external high voltage or VP-P control circuits. All programming is performed using standard TTL/CMOS logic levels on the WE, CE, and OE pins. Internal charge pumps generate the necessary programming voltage, enabling simple integration into 5 V microcontroller systems without additional power rails or level-shifting circuitry - a key feature highlighted in the datasheet's "Simple byte and page write" section.
How does the software data protection feature work on the X28HC64SIZ-12?
The X28HC64SIZ-12 software data protection is activated by issuing a specific three-byte write sequence (0xAA → 0x55 → 0xA0) to address 0x5555, 0x2AAA, and 0x5555 respectively. Once enabled, all subsequent writes require repeating this sequence before each write operation. The protection state is nonvolatile and persists through power cycles. This mechanism is documented in Figures 7–10 of the FN8109 datasheet and applies identically to the X28HC64SIZ-12 as part of the X28HC64 family.
What package type is used for the X28HC64SIZ-12?
The X28HC64SIZ-12 uses a 28-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package with 300 mil body width, RoHS-compliant, per JEDEC MS-013-AE and Intersil's M28.3 package drawing. Pin configuration matches the standard JEDEC byte-wide memory layout, with NC pins at positions 1, 2, 27, and 28. This package is distinct from the 32-lead PLCC variants (e.g., X28HC64JIZ-12) and 28-lead PDIP variants (e.g., X28HC64PIZ-12) in the same family.
Can the X28HC64SIZ-12 be used as a direct replacement for the X28HC64SI-12?
Yes, the X28HC64SIZ-12 is the RoHS-compliant successor to the X28HC64SI-12. Per the Ordering Information table (Note 4), the "Z" suffix denotes Pb-free construction using matte tin plating and anneal (e3 termination), while retaining identical electrical specifications, timing, pinout, and thermal characteristics. No PCB or firmware changes are required for migration, and both parts share the same M28.3 package drawing and industrial temperature rating.
