Microchip Technology Expands UNI/O EEPROM Product Line With Wafer-Level Chip-Scale and TO-92 Packages
Microchip announced that its single-I/O bus UNI/O EEPROM devices are now available in miniature, Wafer-Level Chip-Scale and TO-92 packages, in addition to the 3-pin SOT-23 package. Measuring at 0.85 mm x 1.38 mm, the Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP) is approximately the size of a die and supports a manufacturing flow using standard pick-and-place machines. The long-leaded, 3-pin
TO-92 package is commonly used when the manufacturing flow is a hand-assembly process, or when it is mounted directly on cable assemblies.
The All Microchip memory devices are supported by the MPLAB Starter Kit for Serial Memory Products (Part number DV243003, cost $100). The kit is available today, at microchipDIRECT (http://www.microchip.com/get/9KE2).
The 11AA160 (16 Kbit) and 11AA020 (2 Kbit) EEPROMs are available in the WLCSP. The 11AA160
(16 Kbit), 11AA020 (2 Kbit) and 11AA010 (1Kbit) EEPROMs are available in the 3-pin TO-92 package,
