FT24C256A-ESR-T from FMD Fremont Micro Devices, 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. Hardwire to VIH or VIL to set the slave address; internally recognized as VIL if left unconnected. |
| 2 | A1 | input | Device/chip select address input bit 1. Hardwire to VIH or VIL to set the slave address; internally recognized as VIL if left unconnected. |
| 3 | A2 | input | Device/chip select address input bit 2. Hardwire to VIH or VIL to set the slave address; internally recognized as VIL if left unconnected. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Ground reference for the device. |
| 5 | SDA | bidirectional | Serial data line. Bi-directional open-drain output; must be pulled to VCC with an external resistor. Can be wired-OR with other open-drain devices on the I2C bus. |
| 6 | SCL | input | Serial clock input. Rising edge latches data into the EEPROM, falling edge clocks data out. Supports 400 kHz at 1.8V and up to 1 MHz at 2.5-5.0V. |
| 7 | WP | input | Write protect input. When tied to VIH or VCC, all programming (write) operations are disabled; when left unconnected or tied to VIL, writes are enabled. Read operations are unaffected by WP. |
| 8 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage input. Operating range 1.8V to 5.5V. Standby current < 1 µA. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 638 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
