AT24C256M from HGSEMI, 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/chip select address input bit 0. Hardwired to VIH or VIL to set the slave address; if left unconnected it is internally recognized as VIL. |
| 2 | A1 | input | Device/chip select address input bit 1. Hardwired to VIH or VIL to set the slave address; if left unconnected it is internally recognized as VIL. |
| 3 | A2 | input | Device/chip select address input bit 2. Hardwired to VIH or VIL to set the slave address; if left unconnected it is internally recognized as VIL. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Ground reference for the device. |
| 5 | SDA | bidirectional | Serial data line. Bi-directional, open-drain output; requires an external pull-up resistor and can be wire-OR'd with other open-drain devices on the two-wire bus. |
| 6 | SCL | input | Serial clock input. Rising edge latches data into the EEPROM; falling edge clocks data out. Max 1 MHz at 2.5-5V, 400 kHz at 1.8V. |
| 7 | WP | input | Write-protect input. Tie to VIL (or leave unconnected) to allow programming; tie to VIH/VCC to disable all program/erase operations. Read operations are unaffected. |
| 8 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage input, 1.8V to 5.5V. Absolute maximum 8V; decouple locally with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor to GND. |
