General Description,

The NM24C08U/09U devices are 8K (8,192) bit serial interface CMOS EEPROMs (Electrically Erasable Programmable ReadOnly Memory). These devices fully conform to the Standard I2C™ 2-wire protocol which uses Clock (SCL) and Data I/O (SDA) pins to synchronously clock data between the master (for example a microprocessor) and the slave (the EEPROM device). In addition, the serial interface allows a minimal pin count packaging designed to simplify PC board layout requirements and offers the designer a variety of low voltage and low power options.

Features

■ The I2C™ interface allows the smallest I/O pincount of any EEPROM interface

■ 16 byte page write mode to minimize total write time per byte

■ Typical 200µA active current (ICCA)

■ Typical 1µA standby current (ISB) for L devices and 0.1µA standby current for LZ devices

■ Endurance: Up to 1,000,000 data changes

■ Data retention greater than 40 years
