GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MTV24C08/24LC08 is a low cost, non-volatile, 4096-bit serial EEPROM with enhanced security device and conforms to all specifications in I2C 2 wire protocol. The whole memory can be disabled (Write Protected) by connecting the WP pin to Vcc. This section of memory then becomes unalterable unless WP is switched to Vss. It is enhanced with security function. Every word of the memory has a programmable security bit to permit whether it can be altered or not. The MTV24C08/24LC08s communication protocol uses CLOCK(SCL) and DATA I/O(SDA) lines to synchronously clock data between the master (for example a microcomputer)and the slave EEPROM devices(s) .In addition, the bus structure allows for a maximum of 16K of EEPROM memory. This supports the family in 2K, 4K, 8K, 16K devices, allowing the user to configure the memory as the application requires with any combination of EEPROMs (not to exceed 16K).
