25C160T-E/SN

This Microchip Technology 25C160T-E/SN is a 16 Kbit Serial Electrically Erasable PROM (EEPROM) designed for efficient data storage. It utilizes a simple Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) compatible serial bus for communication, requiring SCK, SI, and SO lines, controlled by a Chip Select (CS) input.

The device offers a memory organization of 2K x 8 bits and supports a maximum clock frequency of 3 MHz. It operates within a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and features a write cycle time of 5ms. The EEPROM is built with low-power CMOS technology, consuming a maximum of 3 mA during writes and a typical 500 µA during reads.

Designed for reliability, the 25C160T-E/SN boasts an endurance of 1 million cycles and data retention exceeding 200 years. It includes built-in write protection features such as power on/off data protection circuitry, a write enable latch, and a write-protect pin. The device is suitable for industrial applications with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

The 25C160T-E/SN is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC package, designed for surface mounting. This package type is standard for many electronic assemblies, facilitating integration into various circuit designs.
