93LC56C-I

Microchip Tech · EEPROM · SOIC-8

93LC56C-I 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 A high level selects the device and a low level deselects it and forces it into Standby mode; CS must be low for 250 ns minimum (TCSL) between consecutive instructions.
2 CLK input Serial Clock: opcodes, address and data bits are clocked in on the positive edge of CLK, and data bits are clocked out on its positive edge; CLK is a don't care while CS is low.
3 DI input Data In: clocks in the Start bit, opcode, address and data synchronously with the CLK input.
4 DO output Data Out: outputs read data synchronously with CLK (TPD after the positive CLK edge) and provides Ready/Busy status during erase and write cycles when CS is brought high after being low for TCSL; it is High-Z when CS is held low through the cycle.
5 VSS power_in Ground reference for the device.
6 ORG input Memory organization select on the 93XX56C: tied to VCC or logic HI selects x16 organization, tied to VSS or logic LO selects x8, and it must be tied to a valid logic level for proper operation (this pin is NC on A/B devices).
7 NC unconnected No internal connection on this package for the 93LC56C.
8 VCC power_in Power supply; the 93LC56C operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V.
