Product details

1 Kbit serial EEPROM for calibration and configuration storage

The Microchip 93C46BT-I/SN is a 1 Kbit serial EEPROM organized as 64 x 16 bits, accessed through a 2 MHz Microwire interface.

The 2 MHz clock rate on the Microwire interface yields a raw bit rate of 2 Mbps. For a 16-bit word read or write, the bus transaction completes in roughly 8 µs plus the 2 ms write cycle time. That write cycle is the throughput bottleneck — the part is suited for infrequent writes (calibration updates, parameter saves) rather than streaming data logging.

Supply and temperature — 5 V only, industrial range

Package and tape format

The tube variant 93C46B-I/SN is also available for prototype or low-volume builds.

Active lifecycle, no end-of-life concern

Microchip lists the 93C46BT-I/SN as Active. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed.

Frequently asked questions

Is 93C46BT-I/SN RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant per Microchip's listing.

What is the equivalent or replacement for 93C46BT-I/SN?

The 93C46B-I/SN is the tube-shipped equivalent with identical die and ratings. The 93C46BT-I/OT offers the same 1 Kbit Microwire EEPROM in a 6-pin SOT-23 package for space-constrained designs. The 93C46AT-I/MC uses a 128 x 8 organization instead of 64 x 16 — check the word width before substituting.
