Microchip Tech · Pre-ordered MCUs · SOIC-8

ATECC608A-SSHCZ-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 NC unconnected No connect pin.
2 NC unconnected No connect pin.
3 NC unconnected No connect pin.
4 GND power_in Ground.
5 SDA bidirectional Serial data pin, used as the high-speed single-wire interface on the CZ (Single Wire Interface) variant, with IO levels of 1.8V to 5.5V.
6 SCL input Serial clock input per the pin table; when the Single-Wire Interface is enabled the remaining pin is available as a GPIO, authenticated output or tamper input.
