Description:
The Microchip Technology Inc. 25AA640/25LC640
(25XX640
*
) is a 64 Kbit Serial Electrically Erasable
PROM [EEPROM]. The memory is accessed via a
simple Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) compatible
serial bus. 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,
transitions on its inputs will be ignored, with the
exception of Chip Select, allowing the host to service
higher priority interrupts.
Features:
• Low-Power CMOS Technology
- Write current: 3 mA, typical
- Read current: 500
μ
A, typical
- Standby current: 500 nA, typical
• 8192 x 8 Bit Organization
• 32 Byte Page
• Write Cycle Time: 5 ms max.
• Self-Timed Erase and Write Cycles
• Block Write Protection
- Protect none, 1/4, 1/2 or all of array
• Built-in Write Protection
- Power on/off data protection circuitry
- Write enable latch
- Write-protect pin
• Sequential Read
• High Reliability
- Data retention: > 200 years
- ESD protection: > 4000V
• 8-pin PDIP, SOIC and TSSOP Packages
• Temperature Ranges Supported:
- Industrial (I): -40°C to +85°C
- Automotive (E): -40°C to +125°C
