St 24c02w6 EEprom

Hello, I was curious if anyone had tried to program the st 24c02w6? it is a St micro eeprom chip from what I can see. I'm still lacking programming skills. But i was curious if there is a way to program it. I can not seem to find a pinout for it for some unknown reason. Can someone help me to figure this out please?

It looks like a standard I2C EEPROM and I think it can be used like a 24LCxx.

Thank you chrisknightly. I could not find the pinout and I'm not sure why. Do you think I can programm it using a arduino eeprom library or would it require something more?

See page:6 above datasheets.

Yes, But I2C_EEPROM library.

Thank you very much. my friend does scrap of servers. He had a whole bunch of Dell servers that had this add on card in there was this chip. There is over 200 of this little modules. From what I looked up this Enables hardware raid controllers. It guess it's used as a Security Key. Because these are no longer being used. Everything is now software based.

I also love reusing junk. :relaxed:
However, you can probably buy 5 EEPROMs with more than 100 times the capacity of this EEPROM for 1 USD... :woozy_face:
Also, many Arduinos have a built-in EEPROM.

I could do that. But then again I don't have money right now and This is the next best thing. Plus I learn more programming skills. I only did one EEProm project in the past a long long time ago. This is good for me.

edit: What People call Junk I call treasure. I love using old parts and making something new out of them.

P.s.s Just becuase it's old Doesn't mean it's useless. Just means there are limitations on it.

I totally agree. :+1:
Good luck, have fun. :smiley:

Thank you very much for the help. And helping me find the pinout. I will post a update as soon as i give it a try tomorrow.
