24LC256T-E
Microchip Tech · EEPROM · SOIC-8
24LC256T-E from Microchip Tech, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A0 | input | User-configurable chip address input compared with the client address bits; must be connected to VCC or VSS. |
| 2 | A1 | input | User-configurable chip address input compared with the client address bits; must be connected to VCC or VSS. |
| 3 | A2 | input | User-configurable chip address input compared with the client address bits; must be connected to VCC or VSS, allowing up to eight devices on one bus. |
| 4 | VSS | power_in | Ground. |
| 5 | SDA | bidirectional | Open-drain bidirectional serial address/data I/O requiring a pull-up resistor to VCC (typical 10 kΩ for 100 kHz, 2 kΩ for 400 kHz and 1 MHz). |
| 6 | SCL | input | Serial clock input that synchronizes data transfer to and from the device. |
| 7 | WP | input | Write-protect input that must be tied to VSS (writes enabled) or VCC (writes inhibited, reads unaffected). |
| 8 | VCC | power_in | Power supply; 2.5V to 5.5V for the 24LC256. |
