Description

The RAK15000 WisBlock EEPROM module, part of the RAKwireless WisBlock series, is a serial EEPROM module with an I2C interface. Designed to work at low power mode, the standby average consumption is lower than 3 µA ( VCC = 5.5 V ). The RAK15000 uses Microchip AT24CM02 that provides 2,097,152 bits of Serial Electrically Erasable and Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), organized as 262,144 words of 8 bits each.

  • High Reliability
    • Endurance: 1,000,000 write cycles
    • Data retention: 100 years
  • Built in error detection and correction
  • 256-byte Page Write Mode
  • Random and Sequential Read Modes
  • Standby current less than 3 µA
  • Chipset: Microchip AT24CM02
  • Module size: 10 x 10 mm

Specifications

Overview

Mounting

The RAK15000 module can be mounted on slots: A, B, C, or D of the WisBlock Base board. Figure 2 shows the mounting mechanism of the RAK15000 on a WisBlock Base module, such as the RAK5005-O.

Pin Definition

The RAK15000 WisBlock Sensor module comprises a standard 24-pin WisConnector. The IO WisConnector allows the RAK15000 module to be mounted on a WisBlock baseboard, such as the RAK5005-O. The pin order of the WisConnector and the pinout definition is shown in Figure 3.

NOTE

Only the I2C related pins, 3V3_S, and GND are connected to this module.
