ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T 개요

The Microchip Technology ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is a hardware cryptographic authentication IC that integrates the SHA-256 hash algorithm with 4.5Kb of EEPROM key storage, housed in a 3-pin SOT-23 (TO-236-3) surface-mount package and communicating over a single-wire interface.

A cryptographic authentication IC, sometimes called a crypto element or secure authenticator, is a specialized security IC that stores secret keys in protected hardware memory and performs challenge-response computations on-chip so that secrets never leave the device. It sits within the broader hierarchy of security integrated circuits: secure authenticator, CryptoAuthentication family member, hardware security IC, semiconductor. This class of part provides a far stronger root of trust than software-only key storage in a general-purpose microcontroller.

Key features include the SHA-256 hash engine, 4.5Kb EEPROM array usable for key storage, miscellaneous read/write data, read-only data, secret data, consumption logging, and security configuration, plus a compact single-wire interface that consumes minimal host-controller GPIO resources. The SOT-23-3 package minimizes PCB footprint, making the part cost-effective and space-efficient.

The device implements a flexible command set for challenge-response protocols in which the host sends a random challenge, the ATSHA204A computes an HMAC-style SHA-256 digest over the challenge plus an internal secret key, and only a device holding the correct key produces the expected response. Internal security features guard against side-channel and physical attacks on stored keys.

Typical applications include consumable and accessory authentication (printer cartridges, battery packs, medical consumables), networked node identification and anti-counterfeiting, and secure firmware or message checking in embedded systems.

Design tip: dedicate a single host GPIO to the single-wire bus and follow the datasheet timing requirements strictly, since the one-wire protocol is timing-sensitive; verify that supply decoupling meets the datasheet recommendation.

🖨️

Consumable and Accessory Authentication

The ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is ideally suited to proving that a cartridge, battery pack, probe, or accessory is genuine. Its SHA-256 engine and 4.5Kb protected EEPROM hold a unique per-item secret that never leaves the chip, so a host instrument can issue a random challenge and verify the returned digest before enabling the consumable. Mounted inside the consumable in a 3-pin SOT-23 package, the device adds negligible cost and board area, and the single-wire interface needs only one contact pad. Cloners cannot copy the digest without the key, making counterfeiting economically impractical.

🌐

Anti-Counterfeiting for Networked Peripherals

Networked peripherals such as sensors, dongles, and certified cables benefit from hardware root-of-trust identification using the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T. The peripheral embeds the SOT-23 device; on connection, the host controller performs a challenge-response exchange over the single-wire bus and only enables full functionality after the SHA-256 digest matches. The 4.5Kb EEPROM can also store read-only serial and model data for inventory and tracing. Because the whole device occupies three pins and consumes minimal quiescent current, it fits even passive-style cable assemblies where board space and power are severely constrained.

🔒

Secure Boot and Firmware Verification Support

In embedded systems, the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T supports secure boot validation: the host stores a digest or key-derived secret in the authenticator and compares it against the hash of firmware images before execution. The SHA-256 algorithm matches common firmware hashing pipelines, so verification integrates directly with existing toolchains. The device's protected EEPROM keeps the reference secret out of external flash where it could be read by attackers. Its single-wire timing protocol should be serviced with interrupts disabled during transfers, so verification is best performed early in boot when the system is single-threaded and timing is deterministic.

⚡

Battery Pack Identification

Smart battery packs for portable and medical devices use the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T to identify genuine packs and log usage. The authenticator's EEPROM consumption-logging counters let the pack record charge cycles that the charger can read at each connection, enabling remaining-life policies and warranty enforcement. The 3-pin SOT-23 survives the thermal and vibration environment of a pack, and the single-wire bus can share the existing battery identification line without adding connector pins. Only a genuine Microchip-programmed device returns valid responses, preventing uncertified third-party packs from being accepted by chargers designed for safety-critical equipment.

🧩

IoT Node Identity and Secure Commissioning

Mass-produced IoT nodes use the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T as an immutable hardware identity. During manufacturing, each device is programmed with a unique secret in its 4.5Kb EEPROM; the cloud backend then registers the corresponding SHA-256 challenge-response profile, allowing the node to prove itself on first network connection without storing long credentials in firmware. At sub-dollar unit pricing in volume (around $0.34 at 1000 units as of 2026-10-12), the authenticator adds negligible bill-of-materials cost while eliminating cloned-node attacks. The single-wire interface consumes only one MCU GPIO on the most cost-reduced node designs.

💊

Medical Consumable and Instrument Pairing

Medical analyzers must guarantee that only validated consumables - test cartridges, calibration kits, reagent packs - run on the instrument. The ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T provides this pairing: the instrument challenges the consumable's authenticator and verifies the SHA-256 response before allowing a test cycle, with lot and expiry data stored in the EEPROM read-only regions. The device's surface-mount SOT-23 package tolerates standard reflow assembly of disposable cartridges, and its low pin count suits small flexible-PCB contact pads. Traceability data combined with cryptographic identity supports regulatory documentation of consumable provenance and usage.

What is the price of ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T?
Pricing for the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is in the sub-dollar range at volume, with unit pricing around $0.34-$0.62 depending on quantity as of 2026-10-12. According to Octopart, pricing can be compared across 12 distributors, and DigiKey lists the part with same-day shipping availability. For exact current quotes, compare DigiKey, Mouser, and Octopart listings, since high-volume pricing (1000+ units) typically drops well below the single-piece price.
Where to buy ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T online?
The ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T can be purchased online from DigiKey (ships today per its listing), Mouser Electronics, and through price-comparison on Octopart, which aggregates 12 distributors. Secondary distributors such as Utsource also list stock. As of 2026-10-12, DigiKey indicates the part ships the same day when ordered, making it the fastest option for prototypes. For production volumes, request quotes from Mouser or compare bulk discounts across distributors via Octopart.
Is ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T in stock and what is the lead time?
Yes, the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is in stock at major distributors: the DigiKey listing states "Buy now, ships today," and Utsource lists the part as in stock and ready to ship as of 2026-10-12. Standard distributor lead time for in-stock items is 1-3 days for delivery. Because Microchip lists this device as active in its portfolio, ongoing production supply is expected, but always confirm reel-level stock for volume orders before scheduling production builds.
What is the difference between ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T and ATSHA204-TSU-T?
The ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is the newer A-version device in a 3-pin SOT-23 package with single-wire interface, while the ATSHA204-TSU-T is the original first-generation SHA-204 device in an 8-pin SOIC package. The A-version adds an improved command set, extended EEPROM functions such as consumption logging, and enhanced counter features. They are not pin-compatible because the packages differ (SOT-23-3 vs SOIC-8), so the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is a functional successor, not a drop-in replacement. Source: Microchip CryptoAuthentication family documentation.
What is the best drop-in replacement for ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T?
The best same-package drop-in option is the ATSHA204A-STUCZ (identical SOT-23-3 single-wire device, non-tape-and-reel ordering code) since it is the same die in the same footprint. No other verified cross-brand part in a 3-pin SOT-23 with the same single-wire SHA-256 command set was found in the cross-reference data, so for new designs Microchip recommends staying within the CryptoAuthentication family. If a footprint change is acceptable, the SOIC-8 ATSHA204A variants offer the same silicon.
When should I choose ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T over other CryptoAuthentication parts?
Choose the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T when you need only symmetric (SHA-256) authentication at the lowest possible cost and board area, with a simple single-wire connection to one host GPIO. Choose the ATECC608 family instead when you need ECDSA asymmetric signing or an I2C interface, and choose the ATAES132A when you need AES encryption of data streams. For consumable authentication, accessory identification, and anti-counterfeiting with minimal firmware complexity, the SHA-256-only ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is the most cost-effective choice per Microchip.
Can ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T be used for consumable authentication?
Yes, consumable and accessory authentication is a primary application of the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T. The host (for example, a printer or instrument) challenges the small SOT-23 device mounted in the consumable (cartridge, battery pack, or probe); only a genuine consumable containing a device programmed with the correct secret key returns the expected SHA-256 response. Cloned consumables cannot replicate the digest because the key is stored in protected EEPROM and never leaves the chip, per the Microchip datasheet.
How does the single-wire interface of the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T work?
The single-wire interface uses one bidirectional signal line (plus power and ground) where the host bit-bangs a proprietary timing-based protocol to send commands and receive responses. Because only one GPIO is consumed, it suits cost-sensitive, pin-limited hosts. Timing must be observed carefully: the protocol encodes bits via pulse-width timing, so interrupts or long blocking sections in host firmware can corrupt transactions. Per the Microchip datasheet, the interface also supports wakeup via a low pulse on the signal line.
Where to download the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T datasheet PDF?
The official ATSHA204A datasheet PDF is available from Microchip at ww1.microchip.com (document titled ATSHA204A-Data-Sheet, document number 40002025A). DigiKey, Mouser, Octopart, and datasheets.com all link this PDF from their product pages for the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T. Always use the Microchip-hosted document as the authoritative source, since third-party mirrors such as alldatasheet may host older Atmel-branded revisions of the same document.
Where can I find the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T pinout?
The ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T pinout in the 3-pin SOT-23 (TO-236-3) package is: pin 1 = VCC, pin 2 = GND, pin 3 = the single-wire signal (I/O) pin. This is documented in the Microchip ATSHA204A datasheet (document 40002025A) package drawings section. Because the part uses the single-wire interface in this package option, there is no separate serial clock or data pin; only the one signal line carries all communication with the host controller.
What is the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T vs ATECC608A - which is better for IoT node authentication?
For pure symmetric authentication of an IoT node or accessory, the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T wins on cost and simplicity: sub-dollar pricing, 3-pin SOT-23 package, single GPIO. The ATECC608A is better when you need asymmetric ECDSA/ECDH cryptography, private keys that never need provisioning into the verifier, or an I2C bus shared with other peripherals - but it costs more and uses more pins. According to Microchip, the ATSHA204A is the most cost-effective CryptoAuthentication device when SHA-256 challenge-response suffices.
Is the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T RoHS compliant?
Yes, the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T is RoHS compliant; it is a standard lead-free surface-mount device as listed by Microchip and distributors DigiKey and Mouser. The SOT-23-3 package uses lead-free terminations suitable for standard reflow soldering profiles. For the most current certificate of conformance and REACH status, download the compliance documentation from the Microchip product page for ATSHA204A, since compliance declarations are maintained at the product-family level and updated as regulations evolve.

선택 가이드

Choose the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T when your requirement is pure symmetric authentication - consumable validation, accessory identification, anti-counterfeiting, or node identity - at the lowest cost and board area, and your host can spare one GPIO and handle timing-sensitive single-wire communication. Choose the SOIC-8 ATSHA204A variants if you need the same silicon with an I2C-capable footprint or easier hand-probing. Choose the ATECC608A family instead when the verifier cannot hold a shared secret (public-key ECDSA model), when you need ECDH key agreement, or when the device must share an I2C bus. Choose the ATAES132A when data-at-rest encryption, not just authentication, is required. Honest trade-off: the ATSHA204A's single-wire bus is slower and timing-sensitive compared to I2C alternatives, and only one same-package ordering variant exists, so second-source flexibility is limited - acceptable for most cost-driven authentication designs.

주요 차별점

  • Lowest pin count in the CryptoAuthentication portfolio (vs ATSHA204A-TSU (SOIC-8 variant))
  • Single-wire interface minimizes host GPIO cost (vs ATECC608A (I2C interface))
  • Symmetric SHA-256 architecture keeps cost minimal (vs ATECC608A (ECDSA asymmetric))

설계 노트

The single-wire interface of the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T encodes bits using pulse-width timing, so host firmware must service the bus with deterministic timing. Disable interrupts or use a low-jitter bit-bang routine during transfers; long ISRs can corrupt a transaction. Keep the SDA trace short (ideally under 10 cm) and, if the bus is routed near switching regulators, consider a light pull-up per the Microchip datasheet wake and timing sections. Prototypes should include a test point on the I/O line for protocol debugging with a logic analyzer.

Decouple the ATSHA204A-STUCZ-T VCC pin with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within a few millimeters of pin 1, shared with the host supply rail. Because the device draws current in short bursts during SHA-256 computation, adequate local decoupling prevents supply droop from resetting the device mid-command. Estimated: a 100 nF cap supplying a millisecond-class compute burst keeps rail ripple well below typical MCU-level noise margins; verify actual sleep and active current figures against the Microchip ATSHA204A datasheet for your supply-voltage condition.

Personalization is mandatory: a factory-fresh ATSHA204A ships unconfigured, and the authentication system only works after the secret key and configuration zone are programmed and locked. Locking is permanent - an incorrectly provisioned device cannot be rekeyed, so validate the provisioning flow on engineering samples before committing to a locked production run. Plan key diversification so each unit gets a unique derived key; storing one master key in every device means a single extraction compromises the entire product line.
