25LC640A-E

Microchip Tech · Pre-ordered Chips · SOIC-8

25LC640A-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 CS input Chip Select input: low selects the device, high deselects it and forces Standby mode with SO in high impedance; a low-to-high transition after a valid write sequence starts the internal write cycle.
2 SO tri_state Serial Data Output: data is shifted out after the falling edge of the serial clock, and the pin is high-impedance when the device is deselected or HOLD is low.
3 WP input Write-Protect pin: with WPEN set, WP low disables writes to the nonvolatile STATUS register bits, and when WP is high all functions operate normally.
4 VSS power_in Ground.
5 SI input Serial Data Input: receives instructions, addresses and data, latched on the rising edge of the serial clock.
6 SCK input Serial Clock input: synchronizes communication, with SI latched on the rising edge and SO updated after the falling edge of the clock (max. 10 MHz).
7 HOLD input Hold input: pulling it low while SCK is low pauses serial communication without resetting the sequence, and it must be held high when not in use.
8 VCC power_in Supply voltage, 2.5-5.5V for the 25LC640A.
