EEPROM is non-volatile, which means it can retain data even when the power is turned off. This property is in contrast to volatile memories like RAM (Random Access Memory), which lose data when power is removed.

Part Number: 24C02 ( 24C01 Thru 24C16 )

Function: 2Kbit Serial I²C bus EEPROM

Package: DIP 8 Pin, SO 8, TSSOP 8 pin Type

Manufacturer: ST,  ISSI

Description

24C02 is 2Kbit Serial I²C bus EEPROM. (Electrically Erasable PROgrammable Memory)

EEPROMs like the 24C02 are non-volatile memory devices, meaning they can retain data even when the power is turned off. They are widely used in various electronic systems for storing configuration data, calibration data, or other small amounts of non-volatile information. The 24C02, with its 2-kilobit capacity, is commonly used in low-power applications, such as small microcontroller-based projects, sensors, and other embedded systems where a small amount of non-volatile memory is required.
