M24C04-RMC6TG

M24C04-RMC6TG is STMicroelectronics’ 4-kbit I2C Serial EEPROM. It provides 512 bytes of non-volatile storage that is accessed over the I2C two-wire bus, making it suitable for small configuration data, calibration constants, logs, or scratchpad memory in embedded systems.
Key points:
- Capacity: 4,096 bits (512 bytes)
- Interface: I2C (2-wire); Fast-mode up to 400 kHz commonly supported
- Organization: 512 x 8; 16-byte page write typical
- Addressing: uses A0–A2 pins for device addressing
- Performance: write cycle around a few milliseconds; typical endurance ~1e6 writes; data retention ~100 years
- Supply: 1.7–5.5 V
- Package variant: M24C04-RMC6TG denotes a specific 8-pin package, temperature grade and packaging; consult the datasheet for exact details
Common uses: small config storage, calibration data, event logs, and non-volatile scratchpad in microcontroller projects. For exact electricals and pinout, refer to the M24C04 datasheet for this variant.
