Question

Hi Team, i am using M24M02-DRMN6TP for one of my project. While working with this EEPROM, we have observed an odd behavior. Please consider this as urgent

When we wrote data at 0 location, same value getting reflected at 32768 and vice versa. Same behavior for 65536 and 98304, 131072 and 163840, 196608 and 229376. Not sure why it is writing at two locations same information even though we have written at single location. With this, we are unable to use 2Mbit size, its getting reduced to 1 Mbit. Which is a problem for us to proceed further on project. We are in difficult situation to go for another revision of board.

    Sounds like it is ignoring an address bit, so you might want to review the bit pattern or expectations in the datasheet vs those on the bus.

    How confident​ are you in the sourcing of the part? Can you get a sample directly from ST or an official distributor and swap the part on a development board?

    Thanks Clive for your response.

    How can we confirm that IC is missing address bit.

    We have observed this odd behavior not only in a single board, observed in total of 5 development boards we have .

    We have purchased these ICs from DigiKey., hope this is a authorized vendor.

    Thanks,

    Siva
