AT25512N-SH-T

Microchip Tech · EEPROM · SOIC-8

AT25512N-SH-T 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: the device is selected when CS is low, and a pull-up to VCC of 10 kΩ or less is recommended so CS follows VCC at power-up.
2 SO tri_state Serial Data Output shifts data out after the falling edge of SCK during a read and stays in a high-impedance state when the device is not selected.
3 WP input Write-Protect allows normal read/write operation when held high, and when driven low with WPEN set to 1 it inhibits all writes to the STATUS register; it should be driven high or low as appropriate.
4 GND power_in Ground is the reference for the power supply and should be connected to 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 the rising edge of SCK and clocking SO out on the falling edge.
7 HOLD input Suspend Serial Input pauses serial communication when asserted during the SCK low pulse while CS is low, and should be driven high or low as appropriate.
8 VCC power_in Device Power Supply; the package operates from 1.8V to 5.5V, and invalid VCC voltages may produce spurious results and should not be attempted.
