The STMicroelectronics M24C04-FDW6TP is a 4Kbit serial EEPROM with an I²C interface, organized as 512 x 8 bits. The 400 kHz bus clock is standard I²C fast mode, fine for storing calibration constants, serial numbers, or configuration tables where you read or write a few bytes at a time.
900 ns access time and 5 ms write cycle — sizing the timing budget
The 5 ms write cycle is the time the part is busy after a write command; the bus master must poll for the acknowledge polling sequence or wait 5 ms before the next command.
Store the reels dry — MSL 1 or 3 depends on the specific reel marking, but standard EEPROMs in TSSOP are typically MSL 1, no bake required unless the moisture barrier bag is compromised.
