Microchip 11AA160T-I/TT: A High-Performance 16-Kbit Serial I2C EEPROM Memory Chip
The Microchip 11AA160T-I/TT is a highly reliable 16-Kbit (2K x 8) serial Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) designed for low-power and space-constrained applications. Operating across a broad voltage range of 1.7V to 5.5V, this memory chip is suitable for a variety of electronic systems, including consumer electronics, industrial automation, IoT devices, and automotive subsystems. Its I2C-compatible interface ensures easy integration with microcontrollers and other digital systems, supporting communication speeds of up to 1 MHz.
One of the standout features of the 11AA160T-I/TT is its ultra-low power consumption, making it ideal for battery-powered devices. With a write current of just 3 mA and a standby current of 1 μA, it helps extend battery life significantly. The device also offers hardware write protection via the WC (Write Control) pin, preventing accidental data modification. Additionally, it supports partial page write operations and features a 64-byte page buffer for efficient data handling.
With an endurance of 1 million write cycles and data retention of over 200 years, this EEPROM ensures long-term reliability and performance. Its compact SOT-23-5 package allows for minimal PCB footprint, catering to modern design constraints.

The Microchip 11AA160T-I/TT stands out as a robust, low-power, and high-endurance EEPROM solution, perfectly suited for applications demanding reliable non-volatile memory with minimal energy consumption.
