AT25256B-SSHL-B

Microchip Tech · EEPROM · SOIC-8

AT25256B-SSHL-B 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 is active low, so the device is selected only when CS is low; it should be pulled up to VCC with a resistor of 10 kΩ or less, and a low level is required after power-up before any sequence starts.
2 SO tri_state Serial data output shifts data out after the falling edge of SCK and stays in a high-impedance state when the device is not selected.
3 WP input Write-protect pin, when driven low with WPEN set to 1, inhibits all write operations to the STATUS register, and it should be driven high or low as appropriate.
4 GND power_in Ground reference for the device power supply (VCC), to be connected to the system ground.
5 SI input Serial data input receives instructions, addresses and data, which are latched on the rising edge of SCK.
6 SCK input Serial data clock synchronizes communication, latching SI on its rising edge and clocking SO out on its falling edge.
7 HOLD input Suspend serial input pauses communication when driven low during SCK low with CS low, causing SO to go high-impedance and ignoring SI and SCK, and it should be driven high or low as appropriate.
8 VCC power_in Device power supply; the device operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, and operation at invalid VCC voltages may produce spurious results and should not be attempted.
