Product details

Single-wire EEPROM for GPIO-constrained designs

The Microchip 11LC040-I/SN is a 4Kbit serial EEPROM that communicates over a single-wire interface — data and clock share one pin. That frees up GPIO on small-package MCUs or when every I/O line is already allocated. Organized as 512 x 8 bits, it stores calibration tables, device configuration, or serial numbers without tying up an I²C or SPI bus. The 100 kHz clock rate is typical for single-wire parts — fine for infrequent reads and writes of small data blocks.

Microchip lists the 11LC040-I/SN as Active. ROHS3 compliant, so it passes into EU and RoHS-regulated markets without exemption paperwork.

Surface-mount 8-SOIC, tube delivery

Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (3.90 mm body width) for surface-mount assembly. Shipped in tube form — factor that into your pick-and-place feeder setup if your line expects tape-and-reel for this footprint.

Frequently asked questions

What interface protocol does 11LC040-I/SN use?

It uses a single-wire interface — data and clock are combined on one pin, unlike I²C or SPI which need two or more signal lines.

Is 11LC040-I/SN RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant per Microchip's lifecycle data.

What is the memory size and organization of 11LC040-I/SN?

4Kbit total, organized as 512 x 8 bits.

When sourcing 11LC040-I/SN, what's the closest functional second-source?

The AT24C04C-XHM-B is a 4Kbit I²C EEPROM with similar supply range and temperature grade, but it uses a two-wire I²C interface rather than single-wire — the bus protocol differs, so a firmware change is required.
