Product details

That means the manufacturer no longer produces it, and no last-time-buy window remains. There is no official ST replacement listed for this specific suffix; the M24C16 family includes many variants, but pin-compatibility and supply voltage must be verified against the original design. If you are freezing a BOM or managing an LTB, this part requires a second-source gate or a qualification of a newer-family substitute.

Housed in an 8-SOIC package (0.154" body width, 3.90 mm), surface-mount soldered to the PCB. The 8-pin SOIC footprint is standard across the M24C16 family, so a board designed for the -MN6 can accept other 8-SOIC variants with the same pinout — but always confirm the supply voltage and clock rate match the replacement. The Bulk packaging means parts ship in tubes or trays, not tape-and-reel; if your pick-and-place line expects reels, request a different packing option or plan for manual loading.

Frequently asked questions

Is M24C16-MN6 obsolete?

Yes, STMicroelectronics lists the M24C16-MN6 as Obsolete. It is no longer in production and has no active last-time-buy window.

What is the replacement for M24C16-MN6?

STMicroelectronics has not published an official direct replacement for the M24C16-MN6 suffix. The M24C16 family includes many 8-SOIC variants with the same pinout, but supply voltage, clock rate, and temperature grade must be checked against the original design before substituting.

What are the specifications of M24C16-MN6?

16Kbit I²C EEPROM organized as 2K x 8 bits, 400 kHz clock, 900 ns access time, 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, 8-SOIC package, Bulk.

What is the pinout of M24C16-MN6?

The M24C16-MN6 uses the standard 8-pin SOIC pinout for I²C EEPROMs: pins 1-3 are address inputs (A0-A2), pin 4 is ground (VSS), pin 5 is serial data (SDA), pin 6 is serial clock (SCL), pin 7 is write protect (WP), and pin 8 is supply voltage (VCC).

How does M24C16-MN6 compare to M24C16-WMN6P?

Both are 16Kbit I²C EEPROMs in 8-SOIC with the same 400 kHz clock and 2K x 8 organization. The key difference is the supply voltage: M24C16-MN6 requires 4.5 V to 5.5 V, while M24C16-WMN6P operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V, making it compatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V systems. The -WMN6P also has a wider temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) and is not marked obsolete.
