DESCRIPTION

The IN24LC16 is a 16K bit Electrically Erasable PROM. The device is organized as eight blocks of 256 x 8 bit memory with a 2-wire serial interface. Low voltage design permits operation down to 2.5 volts with standby and active currents of only 5 µA and 1 mA respectively. The IN24LC16 also has a page-write capability for up to 16 bytes of data. The IN24LC16 is available in the standard 8-pin DIP surface mount SO.
