with open drain RESET outputs. During power-up, the
RESET outputs remain active until VCC reaches the
VTH threshold and will continue driving the outputs for
approximately 200ms (tPURST) after reaching VTH. After
the tPURST timeout interval, the device will cease to drive
reset outputs. At this point the reset outputs will be pulled
up or down by their respective pull up/pull down devices.
During power-down, the RESET outputs will begin driving active when VCC falls below VTH. The RESET
outputs will be valid so long as VCC is >1.0V (VRVALID).
WDI: WATCHDOG INPUT
If there is no transition on the WDI for more than 1.6
seconds, the watchdog timer times out.
WP: WRITE PROTECT
If the pin is tied to VCC the entire memory array becomes
Write Protected (READ only). When the pin is tied to VSS
or left floating normal read/write operations are allowed
to the device.
The RESET pins are I/Os; therefore, the CAT24CXXX
can act as a signal conditioning circuit for an externally
applied reset. The inputs are level triggered; that is, the
RESET input in the 24CXXX will initiate a reset timeout
after detecting a high and the RESET input in the
24CXXX will initiate a reset timeout after detecting a low.
SCL: SERIAL CLOCK
The serial clock input clocks all data transferred into or
out of the device.
RESET/RESET
RESET: RESET I/O
RESET
These are open drain pins and can be used as reset
trigger inputs. By forcing a reset condition on the pins the
device will initiate and maintain a reset condition for
approximately 200ms. RESET pin must be connected
through a pull-down and RESET pin must be connected
through a pull-up device.
Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer provides an independent protection for microcontrollers. During a system failure, the
CAT24CXXX will respond with a reset signal after a
time-out interval of 1.6 seconds for a lack of activity. The
24CXX3 is designed with a WDI input pin for the Watchdog Timer function. For the 24CXX3, if the microcontroller
does not toggle the WDI input pin within 1.6 seconds, the
Watchdog Timer times out. This will generate a reset
condition on reset outputs. The Watchdog Timer is
cleared by any transition on WDI.
SDA: SERIAL DATA/ADDRESS
The bidirectional serial data/address pin is used to
transfer all data into and out of the device. The SDA pin
is an open drain output and can be wire-ORed with other
open drain or open collector outputs.
DEVICE OPERATION
Reset Controller Description
As long as the reset signal is asserted, the Watchdog
Timer will not count and will stay cleared.

Hardware Data Protection
Reset Threshold Voltage
The 24CXXX is designed with the following hardware
data protection features to provide a high degree of data
integrity.
From the factory the 24CXXX is offered in five different
variations of reset threshold voltages. They are 4.504.75V, 4.25-4.50V, 3.00-3.15V, 2.85-3.00V and 2.552.70V. To provide added flexibility to design engineers
using this product, the 24CXXX is designed with an
additional feature of programming the reset threshold
voltage. This allows the user to change the existing
reset threshold voltage to one of the other four reset
threshold voltages. Once the reset threshold voltage is
selected it will not change even after cycling the power,
unless the user uses the programmer to change the
reset threshold voltage. However, the programming
function is available only through third party programmer
manufacturers. Please call Catalyst for a list of programmer manufacturers who support this function.
(1) The 24CXXX features a WP pin. When WP pin is tied
high the entire memory array becomes write protected
(read only).
(2) The VCC sense provides write protection when VCC
falls below the reset threshold value (VTH). The VCC lock
out inhibits writes to the serial EEPROM whenever VCC
falls below (power down) VTH or until VCC reaches the
reset threshold (power up) VTH.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
STOP Condition
The CAT24CXXX supports the I2C Bus data transmission protocol. This Inter-Integrated Circuit Bus protocol
defines any device that sends data to the bus to be a
transmitter and any device receiving data to be a receiver. The transfer is controlled by the Master device
which generates the serial clock and all START and
STOP conditions for bus access. The CAT24CXXX
operates as a Slave device. Both the Master device and
Slave device can operate as either transmitter or receiver, but the Master device controls which mode is
activated.
A LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL is HIGH
determines the STOP condition. All operations must end
with a STOP condition.
I2 C
DEVICE ADDRESSING
The Master begins a transmission by sending a START
condition. The Master sends the address of the particular slave device it is requesting. The four most significant
bits of the 8-bit slave address are fixed as 1010.
The next three bits (Fig. 6) define memory addressing.
For the 24C023, the three bits are don't care. For the
24C043, the next two bits are don't care and the third bit
is the high order address bit. For the 24C083, the next
bit is don't care and the successive bits define the higher
order address bits. For the 24C163 the three bits define
higher order bits.
BUS PROTOCOL
The features of the I2C bus protocol are defined as
follows:
(1) Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is
not busy.
The last bit of the slave address specifies whether a
Read or Write operation is to be performed. When this
bit is set to 1, a Read operation is selected, and when set
to 0, a Write operation is selected.
(2) During a data transfer, the data line must remain
stable whenever the clock line is high. Any changes in
the data line while the clock line is high will be interpreted
as a START or STOP condition.
After the Master sends a START condition and the slave
address byte, the CAT24CXXX monitors the bus and
responds with an acknowledge (on the SDA line) when
its address matches the transmitted slave address. The
CAT24CXXX then performs a Read or Write operation
depending on the state of the R/W bit.
START Condition
The START Condition precedes all commands to the
device, and is defined as a HIGH to LOW transition of
SDA when SCL is HIGH. The CAT24CXXX monitors the
SDA and SCL lines and will not respond until this
condition is met.

ACKNOWLEDGE
location. The CAT24CXXX acknowledges once more
and the Master generates the STOP condition. At this
time, the device begins an internal programming cycle to
nonvolatile memory. While the cycle is in progress, the
device will not respond to any request from the Master
device.
After a successful data transfer, each receiving device is
required to generate an acknowledge. The Acknowledging device pulls down the SDA line during the ninth clock
cycle, signaling that it received the 8 bits of data.
The CAT24CXXX responds with an acknowledge after
receiving a START condition and its slave address. If the
device has been selected along with a write operation,
it responds with an acknowledge after receiving each 8bit byte.
Page Write
The 24CXXX writes up to 16 bytes of data in a single
write cycle, using the Page Write operation. The page
write operation is initiated in the same manner as the
byte write operation, however instead of terminating
after the initial byte is transmitted, the Master is allowed
to send up to 15 additional bytes. After each byte has
been transmitted, CAT24CXXX will respond with an
acknowledge, and internally increment the lower order
address bits by one. The high order bits remain unchanged.
When the CAT24CXXX begins a READ mode it transmits 8 bits of data, releases the SDA line, and monitors
the line for an acknowledge. Once it receives this acknowledge, the CAT24CXXX will continue to transmit
data. If no acknowledge is sent by the Master, the device
terminates data transmission and waits for a STOP
condition.
WRITE OPERATIONS
If the Master transmits more than 16 bytes before
sending the STOP condition, the address counter ‘wraps
around’, and previously transmitted data will be overwritten.
Byte Write
In the Byte Write mode, the Master device sends the
START condition and the slave address information
(with the R/W bit set to zero) to the Slave device. After
t he Slave generates an acknowledge, the Master sends
a 8-bit address that is to be written into the address
pointers of the CAT24CXXX. After receiving another
acknowledge from the Slave, the Master device transmits the data to be written into the addressed memory
When all 16 bytes are received, and the STOP condi
tion has been sent by the Master, the internal programming cycle begins. At this point, all received data is
written to the CAT24CXXX in a single write cycle.

protected and becomes read only. The CAT24CXXX
will accept both slave and byte addresses, but the
memory location accessed is protected from programming by the device's failure to send an acknowledge
after the first byte of data is received.
Disabling of the inputs can be used to take advantage of
the typical write cycle time. Once the stop condition is
issued to indicate the end of the host’s write operation,
CAT24CXXX initiates the internal write cycle. ACK polling can be initiated immediately. This involves issuing
the start condition followed by the slave address for a
write operation. If CAT24CXXX is still busy with the write
operation, no ACK will be returned. If
CAT24CXXX has completed the write operation, an
ACK will be returned and the host can then proceed with
the next read or write operation.
READ OPERATIONS
The READ operation for the CAT24CXXX is initiated in
the same manner as the write operation with one exception, that R/W bit is set to one. Three different READ
operations are possible: Immediate/Current Address
READ, Selective/Random READ and Sequential READ.
WRITE PROTECTION
The Write Protection feature allows the user to protect
against inadvertent programming of the memory array.
If the WP pin is tied to VCC, the entire memory array is

Immediate/Current Address Read
The CAT24CXXX’s address counter contains the address of the last byte accessed, incremented by one. In
other words, if the last READ or WRITE access was to
address N, the READ immediately following would access data from address N+1. If N=E (where E= 255 for
24C023, E=511 for 24C043, E=1023 for 24C083 and
E=2047 for 24C163) then the counter will ‘wrap around’
to address 0 and continue to clock out data. After the
CAT24CXXX receives its slave address information
(with the R/W bit set to one), it issues an acknowledge,
then transmits the 8-bit byte requested. The master
device does not send an acknowledge, but will generate
a STOP condition.
does not send an acknowledge but will generate a STOP
condition.
Selective/Random Read
The data being transmitted from CAT24CXXX is outputted sequentially with data from address N followed by
data from address N+1. The READ operation address
counter increments all of the CAT24CXXX address bits
so that the entire memory array can be read during one
operation. If more than E (where E= 255 for 24C023,
E=511 for 24C043, E=1023 for 24C083 and E=2047 for
24C163) bytes are read out, the counter will ‘wrap
around’ and continue to clock out data bytes.
Sequential Read
The Sequential READ operation can be initiated by
either the Immediate Address READ or Selective READ
operations. After the CAT24CXXX sends the initial 8-bit
byte requested, the Master will respond with an ac
knowledge which tells the device it requires more data.
The CAT24CXXX will continue to output an 8-bit byte for
each acknowledge sent by the Master. The operation
will terminate when the Master fails to respond with an
acknowledge, thus sending the STOP condition.
Selective/Random READ operations allow the Master
device to select at random any memory location for a
READ operation. The Master device first performs a
‘dummy’ write operation by sending the START condition, slave address and byte addresses of the location it
wishes to read. After CAT24CXXX acknowledges, the
Master device sends the START condition and the slave
address again, this time with the R/W bit set to one.
The CAT24CXXX then responds with its acknowledge
and sends the 8-bit byte requested. The master device
