Description
The Atmel
®
AT24C01C/02C provides 1024/2048-bits of Serial Electrically Erasable and
Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) organized as 128/256 words of eight
bits each. Both devices include a cascading feature that allows up to eight devices to
share a common 2-wire bus. These devices are optimized for use in many industrial
and commercial applications where low power and low voltage operation are essential.
The AT24C01C/02C are available in space saving 8-lead PDIP, 8-lead JEDEC SOIC,
8-lead TSSOP, 8-lead UDFN
,
5-lead SOT23, and 8-ball VFBGA packages. In addition,
the entire family operates from 1.7V to 5.5V V
CC
.

damage to the device. This is a stress rating only
and functional operation of the device at these or
any other conditions beyond those indicated in
the operational sections of this specification is
not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum
rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.

Pin Description
Serial Clock (SCL):
The SCL input is used to positive edge clock data into each EEPROM device and negative edge
clock data out of each device.
Serial Data (SDA):
The SDA pin is bidirectional for serial data transfer. This pin is open drain driven and may be
wire-ORed with any number of other open drain or open collector devices.
Device/Page Addresses (A
2
, A
1
, A
0
):
The A
2
, A
1
, and A
0
pins are device address inputs that are hard wired for the
AT24C01C/02C. As many as eight 1-Kbit or 2-Kbit devices may be addressed on a single bus system. See
Section 7.
“Device Addressing” on page 9
for more details.
Write Protect (WP):
The AT24C01C/02C have a Write Protect pin that provides hardware data protection. The Write
Protect pin allows normal read/write operations when connected to ground (GND). When the Write Protect pin is
connected to V
CC
, the write protection feature is enabled and operates as shown below in
Table 4-1.

Memory Organization
Atmel AT24C01C, 1K Serial EEPROM:
Internally organized with 16 pages of eight bytes each, the 1K requires a 7-bit
data word address for random word addressing.
Atmel AT24C02C, 2K Serial EEPROM:
Internally organized with 32 pages of eight bytes each, the 2K requires an 8-bit
data word address for random word addressing.
