Description:
Microchip Technology Inc. 25LCXXXA* devices are
low-density 1 through 4 Kbit Serial Electrically Eras-
able PROMs (EEPROM). The devices are organized in
blocks of x8-bit memory and support the Serial Periph-
eral Interface (SPI) compatible serial bus architecture.
Byte-level and page-level functions are supported.
The bus signals required are a clock input (SCK) plus
separate data in (SI) and data out (SO) lines. Access to
the device is controlled through a Chip Select (CS)
input.
Communication to the device can be paused via the
hold pin (HOLD). While the device is paused, transi-
tions on its inputs will be ignored, with the exception of
Chip Select, allowing the host to service higher priority
interrupts.
The 25LCXXXA is available in a standard 8-lead SOIC
package. The package is Pb-free and RoHS
Compliant.

Note 1:
AEC-Q100 reliability testing for devices intended to operate at 150°C is 1,000 hours. Any design in which
the total operating time between 125°C and 150°C will be greater than 1,000 hours is not warranted with-
out prior written approval from Microchip Technology Inc.
†
NOTICE: Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the
device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those
indicated in the operational listings of this specification is not implied. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for an
extended period of time may affect device reliability.
