AT24C21_03 Datasheet, PDF (3/17 Pages) ATMEL Corporation – 2-wire Serial EEPROM
AT24C21
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.
SERIAL CLOCK (VCLK): Upon power-up, the device is in the Transmit-only mode and
will transmit the entire memory contents via the SDA pin with positive signals on the
VCLK pin.
Memory Organization AT24C21, 1K SERIAL EEPROM: Internally organized with 128 pages of one byte each.
The 1K requires a 7-bit data word address for random word addressing.
DC Characteristics
Applicable over recommended operating range from: TAI = -40°C to +85°C, TAC = 0°C to +70°C, VCC = +2.5V to +5.5V
(unless otherwise noted).
