DESCRIPTION
The Microchip Technology Inc. 24AA164 is a cascad-
able 16K bit Electrically Erasable PROM. The device is
organized as eight blocks of 256 x 8-bit memory with a
2-wire serial interface. Low voltage design permits
operation down to 1.8 volts (end-of-life voltage for most
popular battery technologies) with standby and active
currents of only 5 µA and 1 mA respectively. The
24AA164 also has a page-write capability for up to 16
bytes of data. The 24AA164 is available in the standard
8-pin DIP and 8-lead surface mount SOIC packages.
The three select pins, A0, A1, and A2, function as chip
select inputs and allow up to eight devices to share a
common bus, for up to 128K bits total system
EEPROM.
