24C256

lingxingic 24C256 LX · EEPROM · SOP-8

24C256 from lingxingic 24C256 LX, in a SOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 A0 input Device address input bit 0. Combined with A1/A2 to hardware-address up to 8 devices on a single I2C bus. Internally pulled down to GND if left floating.
2 A1 input Device address input bit 1. Combined with A0/A2 to hardware-address up to 8 devices on a single I2C bus. Internally pulled down to GND if left floating.
3 A2 input Device address input bit 2. Combined with A0/A1 to hardware-address up to 8 devices on a single I2C bus. Internally pulled down to GND if left floating.
4 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V) for the device.
5 SDA bidirectional I2C serial data. Bidirectional, open-drain output; requires an external pull-up resistor (typically 4.7 kΩ to VCC). Can be wire-OR'd with other open-drain/open-collector devices. Input capacitance 8 pF max.
6 SCL input I2C serial clock. Data is latched into the EEPROM on the rising edge of SCL and clocked out on the falling edge. Supports 400 kHz (1.8-2.5 V VCC) and up to 1 MHz (2.5-5.5 V VCC).
7 WP input Write protect. When tied to GND, normal read/write operations are allowed. When tied to VCC, the entire 256K array is write-protected (hardware data protection).
8 VCC power_in Positive supply. Operating range 1.8 V to 5.5 V (absolute max 6.25 V). Typical operating current 0.2 mA read / 0.8 mA write at VCC=5.5 V, 400 kHz; standby current ≤3 µA at 5.5 V.
