24LC16B-E/ST

Detailed Description:

The 24LC16B-E/ST is a high-performance, 16-Kilobit serial Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) manufactured by Microchip Technology. Offering a storage solution of 2 kilobytes by 8 bits, it operates on a power supply as low as 2.5 volts, making it suitable for low-power applications. This tiny, yet powerful component is designed for optimal efficiency in storing data that must be amendable and retrievable without requiring a full erase before reprogramming. Its serial interface facilitates easy and straightforward integration into a broad range of microcontroller-based systems. The 24LC16B-E/ST variant is encapsulated in an ST package, ensuring robustness and reliability for industrial applications. It is ideal for use in settings that demand small-form-factor data storage options, such as in portable devices, automation systems, and various consumer electronics. Furthermore, its compatibility with the serial I2C bus ensures that it can easily communicate with the vast majority of microcontrollers on the market, thus providing a versatile solution for developers looking to implement non-volatile memory elements into their designs.
