Win a single-wire EEPROM evaluation kit

15 August 2018 News

The DM160232 serial memory single-wire evaluation kit from Microchip Technology is an easy-to-use interactive user tool, which demonstrates the advanced features, functionality and low-power operation of the AT21CS series of serial EEPROM devices.

The AT21CS series is a family of serial EEROMs that utilises the single-wire interface (SWI) protocol. The family software addressing scheme allows up to eight devices to share a common single-wire bus. The device is optimised for use in many industrial and commercial applications where low-power and low-voltage operation are essential.

Some applications examples include analog sensor calibration data storage, ink and toner printer cartridge identification, and management of after-market consumables. The family is available in space-saving package options and operates with an external pull-up voltage on the SI/O line.

Key features of the device include internal variable voltage from 1,7 V to 3,6 V, support for USB base board firmware update via the FLexible In-system Programming (FLIP) software utility, and it contains a AT90USB1287 and 8-bit AVR microcontroller. Supported devices of the evaluation kit include the AT21CS01 and AT21CS11.
