Pin Function Table
Description:
Microchip Technology Inc. 25LCXXXA* devices are
low-density 1 through 4 Kbit Serial Electrically Eras-
able PROMs (EEPROM). The devices are organized in
blocks of x8-bit memory and support the Serial Periph-
eral Interface (SPI) compatible serial bus architecture.
Byte-level and page-level functions are supported.
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, transi-
tions on its inputs will be ignored, with the exception of
Chip Select, allowing the host to service higher priority
interrupts.
The 25LCXXXA is available in a standard 8-lead SOIC
package. The package is Pb-free and RoHS
Compliant.
