Atmel Corporation has launched the industry’s first 1-Mbit device in an 8-lead TSSOP (4.4mm) package.
The AT24C1024B is the newest member of the 2-wire family of devices designed with Atmel’s advanced EEPROM technology, making it possible to fit a 1-Mbit EEPROM in an 8-lead TSSOP package. Previously, the highest available density by the industry was a 512K-bit. The AT24C1024B is also available in a SO8 narrow body, and 150mil JEDEC SOIC (3.8mm) and features a 2-wire protocol with clock frequency up to 1MHz.
The AT24C1024B features two input addresses which provides designers with maximum flexibility to cascade up to four AT24C1024B devices on the same bus, thus increasing the overall storage density up to 4-Mbit.
The AT24C1024B operates from 1.8V to 5.5V and is ideal for a wide range of consumer, industrial and medical applications. The TSSOP package enables manufacturers of digital cameras, game cards, PDAs and other portable consumer products to increase the memory capacity for storage, while offering slimmer and lighter products.
