DESCRIPTION
CMOS E2PROM floating gate technology. The devices
are designed to endure 1,000,000 program/erase cycles
and have a data retention of 100 years. The devices are
available in 8-pin DIP, 8-pin SOIC or 8-pin TSSOP
packages.
The CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 are 1K/2K/2K/4K/16K-bit
Serial E2PROM memory devices which are configured
as either registers of 16 bits (ORG pin at VCC) or 8 bits
(ORG pin at GND). Each register can be written (or read)
serially by using the DI (or DO) pin. The CAT93C46/56/
57/66/86 are manufactured using Catalyst’s advanced

DEVICE OPERATION
the DI pin on the rising edge of the clock (SK). The DO
pin is normally in a high impedance state except when
reading data from the device, or when checking the
ready/busy status after a write operation.
The CAT93C46/56(57)66/86 is a 1024/2048/4096/
16,384-bit nonvolatile memory intended for use with
industry standard microprocessors. The CAT93C46/56/
57/66/86 can be organized as either registers of 16 bits
or 8 bits. When organized as X16, seven 9-bit instructions for 93C46; seven 10-bit instructions for 93C57;
seven 11-bit instructions for 93C56 and 93C66; seven
13-bit instructions for 93C86; control the reading, writing
and erase operations of the device. When organized as
X8, seven 10-bit instructions for 93C46; seven 11-bit
instructions for 93C57; seven 12-bit instructions for
93C56 and 93C66: seven 14-bit instructions for 93C86;
control the reading, writing and erase operations of the
device. The CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 operates on a single
power supply and will generate on chip, the high voltage
required during any write operation.
The ready/busy status can be determined after the start
of a write operation by selecting the device (CS high) and
polling the DO pin; DO low indicates that the write
operation is not completed, while DO high indicates that
the device is ready for the next instruction. If necessary,
the DO pin may be placed back into a high impedance
state during chip select by shifting a dummy “1” into the
DI pin. The DO pin will enter the high impedance state on
the falling edge of the clock (SK). Placing the DO pin into
the high impedance state is recommended in applications where the DI pin and the DO pin are to be tied
together to form a common DI/O pin.
Instructions, addresses, and write data are clocked into

increment to the next address and shift out the next data
word in a sequential READ mode. As long as CS is
continuously asserted and SK continues to toggle, the
device will keep incrementing to the next address automatically until it reaches to the end of the address space,
then loops back to address 0. In the sequential READ
mode, only the initial data word is preceeded by a
dummy zero bit. All subsequent data words will follow
without a dummy zero bit.
The format for all instructions sent to the device is a
logical "1" start bit, a 2-bit (or 4-bit) opcode, 6-bit (93C46)/
/7-bit (93C57)/ 8-bit (93C56 or 93C66)/10-bit (93C86)
(an additional bit when organized X8) and for write
operations a 16-bit data field (8-bit for X8 organizations).
Note: This note is applicable only to 93C86. The Write,
Erase, Write all and Erase all instructions require PE=1.
If PE is left floating, 93C86 is in Program Enabled mode.
For Write Enable and Write Disable instruction PE=don’t
care.
Write
After receiving a WRITE command, address and the
data, the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a
minimum of tCSMIN. The falling edge of CS will start the
self clocking clear and data store cycle of the memory
location specified in the instruction. The clocking of the
SK pin is not necessary after the device has entered the
self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of the
CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 can be determined by selecting
the device and polling the DO pin. Since this device
features Auto-Clear before write, it is NOT necessary to
erase a memory location before it is written into.
Read
Upon receiving a READ command and an address
(clocked into the DI pin), the DO pin of the CAT93C46/
56/57/66/86 will come out of the high impedance state
and, after sending an initial dummy zero bit, will begin
shifting out the data addressed (MSB first). The output
data bits will toggle on the rising edge of the SK clock and
are stable after the specified time delay (tPD0 or tPD1)
For the 93C56/57/66/86, after the initial data word has
been shifted out and CS remains asserted with the SK
clock continuing to toggle, the device will automatically

Erase All
Upon receiving an ERASE command and address, the
CS (Chip Select) pin must be deasserted for a minimum
of tCSMIN. The falling edge of CS will start the self clocking
clear cycle of the selected memory location. The clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has
entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of
the CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 can be determined by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. Once cleared,
the content of a cleared location returns to a logical “1”
state.
Upon receiving an ERAL command, the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of tCSMIN.
The falling edge of CS will start the self clocking clear
cycle of all memory locations in the device. The clocking
of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has
entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of
the CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 can be determined by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. Once cleared,
the contents of all memory bits return to a logical “1”
state.
Erase/Write Enable and Disable
Write All
The CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 powers up in the write
disable state. Any writing after power-up or after an
EWDS (write disable) instruction must first be preceded
by the EWEN (write enable) instruction. Once the write
instruction is enabled, it will remain enabled until power
to the device is removed, or the EWDS instruction is
sent. The EWDS instruction can be used to disable all
CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 write and clear instructions,
and will prevent any accidental writing or clearing of the
device. Data can be read normally from the device
regardless of the write enable/disable status.
Upon receiving a WRAL command and data, the CS
(Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of
tCSMIN. The falling edge of CS will start the self clocking
data write to all memory locations in the device. The
clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device
has entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy
status of the CAT93C46/56/57/66/86 can be determined
by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. It is not
necessary for all memory locations to be cleared before
the WRAL command is executed.
