Serial Clock (SCL):
The SCL input is used to positive edge clock data into each EEPROM device and negative edge clock
data out of each device.
Serial Data (SDA):
The SDA pin is bi-directional for serial data transfer. This pin is open-drain driven and may be
wire-ORed with any number of other open-drain or open-collector devices.
Device/Page Addresses (A2, A1, A0):
The A2, A1 and A0 pins are device address inputs that are hardwired or left not connected for
hardware compatibility with other ACE24CXXX devices. When the pins are hardwired, as many as
eight 512K devices may be addressed on a single bus system (device addressing is discussed in detail
under the Device Addressing section).If the pins are left floating, the A2, A1 and A0 pins will be
internally pulled down to GND if the capacitive coupling to the circu it board Vcc plane is < 3pF, if
coupling is > 3 pF, ACE recommends connecting the address pins to GND.
Write Protect (WP):
The ACE24C512D has a Write Protect pin that provides hardware data protection. The WP pin allows normal
write operations when connected to ground (GND). When the Write Protect pin is connected to Vcc. All
write operations to the memory are inhibited. If the pin is left floating, the WP pin well be internally
pulled down to GND if the capacitive coupling to the circuit board Vcc plane is < 3pF, if coupling is > 3
pF, ACE recommends connecting the WP to GND. Switching WP to VCC prior to a write operation
creates a software write protected function

Device Operation
Clock and Data Transitions:
The SDA pin is normally pulled high with an external device. Data on the SDA pin may change only
during SCL low time periods (refer to Figure 4).Data changes during SCL high periods will indicate a
start or stop condition as defined below.
Start Condition:
A high-to-low transition of SDA with SCL high is a start condition which must precede any other
command (refer to Figure 5).
VER 1.0

ACE24C512D
Two-wire Serial EEPROM
Stop Condition:
A low-to-high transition of SDA with SCL high is a stop condition. After a read sequence, the stop command
will place the EEPROM in a standby power mode (refer to Figure 5).
Acknowledge:
All addresses and data words are serially transmitted to and from the EEPROM in 8-bit words. The
EEPROM sends a zero during the ninth clock cycle to acknowledge that it has received each word.
Standby Mode :
The ACE24C512D features a low-power standby mode which is enabled: (a) upon power-up and (b)
after the receipt of the stop bit and the completion of any internal operations.
Memory Reset :
After an interruption in protocol power loss or system reset, any two-wire part can be protocol reset by following
these steps:
1. Clock up to 9 cycles.
2. Look for SDA high in each cycle while SCL is high and then.
3. Create a start condition as SDA is high.

Device Addressing
Data Memory Access: The 512K EEPROM device require an 8-bit device address word following a
start condition to enable the chip for a read or write operation (refer to Figure 1).
The device address word consists of a mandatory “1010”(Ah) sequence for the first four most
significant bits as shown in Table 1 . This is common to all the EEPROM devices.
The 512K EEPROM uses the three device address bits A2, A1, A0 to allow as many as eight devices
on the same bus. These bits must compare to their corresponding hard-wired input pins. The A2,A1 and
A0 pins use an internal proprietary circuit that biases them to a logic low condition if the pins are
allowed to float.
VER 1.0
8
ACE24C512D
Two-wire Serial EEPROM
The Module package device address word also consists of a mandatory “1010”(Ah) sequence for the
first four most significant bits. The next 3 bits are all zero.
The eighth bit of the device address is the read/write operation select bit. A read operation is initiated if
this bit is high and a write operation is initiated if this bit is low.
Upon a compare of the device address, the EEPROM will output a zero. If a compare is not made, the
device will return to a standby state.
Unique ID Access
The ACE24C512D utilizes a separate memory block containing a factory programmed 128-bit unique
ID. Access to this memory location is obtained by beginning the device address word with a “1010”(Bh)
sequence(refer to Table 1). The behavior of the next three bits(A2,A1 and A0) rema ins the same as
during a standard memory addressing sequence.
The eighth bit of the device address needs be set to a one to read the Serial Number. Writing or
altering the 128-bit unique ID is not possible.
For more details on accessing this special feature See Read Operations on page 14.
Security Sector Access
The ACE24C512D offers 128-byte Security Sector which can be written and (later) permanently locked
in Read-only mode. Access to this memory location is obtained by beginning the device address word
with a “1010”(Bh) sequence(refer to Table 1). The behavior of the next three bits(A2,A1 and A0)
remains the same as during a standard memory addressing sequence.
The eighth bit of the device address is the read/write operation select bit. A read operat ion is initiated
if this bit is high and a write operation is initiated if this bit is low
For more details on accessing this special feature, See Write Operations and Read Operations on
page 13, 14.
Noise protection:
Special internal circuitry place on the SDA and SCL pins prevent small noise spikes from activating the
device.
Date Security:
The Device has a hardware data protect scheme that allows the user to write protect the entire
memory when the WP pin is at Vcc.

Write Operations
Byte Write:
A write operation requires two 8-bit data word address following the device address word and
acknowledgment. Upon receipt of this address, the EEPROM will again respond with a zero and then
clock in the first 8-bit data word. Following receipt of the 8-bit data word, the EEPROM will output a
zero and the addressing device, such as a microcontroller, must terminate the write sequence with a
stop condition. At this time the EEPROM enters an internally-timed write cycle, tWR, to the nonvolatile
memory. All inputs are disabled during this write cycle and the EEPROM will not respond until the write
is complete (see Figure7 on page 15).
Page Write:
The 512K EEPROM is capable of an 128-byte page write.
A page write is initiated the same way as a byte write, but the microcontroller does not send a stop
condition after the first data word is clocked in. Instead, after the EEPROM acknowledges receipt of the
first data word, the microcontroller can transmit up to 127 more data words. The EEPROM will respond
with a zero after each data word received. The microcontroller must terminate the page write sequence
with a stop condition (see Figure8 on page 15).
The data word address lower 7 bits are internally incremented following the receipt of each data word.
The higher data word address bits are not incremented, retaining the memory page row location. When
the word address, internally generated, reaches the page boundary, the following byte is placed at the
beginning of the same page. If more than 128 data words are transmitted to the EEPROM, the data
word address will “roll over” and previous data will be overwritten.
VER 1.0
10
ACE24C512D
Two-wire Serial EEPROM
Acknowledge Polling:
Once the internally timed write cycle has started and the EEPROM inputs are disabled, acknowledge
polling can be initiated. This involves sending a start condition followed by the device address word.
The read/write bit is representative of the operation desired. Only if the internal write cycle has
completed will the EEPROM respond with a zero allowing the read or write sequence to continue.
Write Security Sector:
Write the Security Sector is similar to the page write but requires use of device address, and the
special word address, and the special word address seen in Table 1 on page 12.The higher address
bits ADDR<15:7> are don’t care except for address bits ADDR<10:9>,which must be equal to‘00b’.
Lower address bits ADDR<6:0> define the byte address inside the Security Sector (see Figure 12 on
page 16).
If the Security Sector is locked, the data bytes transferred during the Write Security Sector operation
are not acknowledged (NoAck).
Lock Security Sector
Lock the Security Sector is similar to the byte write but requires use of device address, and special
word address seen in Table 1 on page 12. The word address bits ADDR<10:9> must be ‘10b’, all other
word address bits are don’t care. The data byte must be equal to the binary value xxxx xx1x, where x is
don' care (see Figure 14 on page 17).
If the Security Sector is locked, the data bytes transferred during the Lock Security Sector operation
are not acknowledged (NoAck).
Read Operations
Read operations are initiated the same way as write operations with the exception that the read/write
select bit in the device address word is set to one. There are three read operations: current address
read, random address read and sequential read.
Current Address Read:
The internal data word address counter maintains the last address accessed during the last read or
write operation, incremented by one. This address stays valid between operations as long as the chip
power is maintained. The address “roll over” during read is from the last byte of the last memory page
to the first byte of the first page. The address “roll over” during write is from the last byte of the current
page to the first byte of the same page.
Once the device address with the read/write select bit set to one is clocked in and acknowledged by
the EEPROM, the current address data word is serially clocked out. The microcontroller does not
respond with an input zero but does generate a following stop condition (see Figure9 on page 15).
VER 1.0
11
ACE24C512D
Two-wire Serial EEPROM
Random Read:
A random read requires a “dummy” byte write sequence to load in the data word address. Once the
device address word and data word address are clocked in and acknowledged by the EEPROM, the
microcontroller must generate another start condition. The microcontroller now initiates a current
address read by sending a device address with the read/write select bit high. The EEPROM
acknowledges the device address and serially clocks out the data word. The microcontroller does not
respond with a zero but does generate a following stop condition (see Figure10 on page 16).
Sequential Read:
Sequential reads are initiated by either a current address read or a random address read. After the
microcontroller receives a data word, it responds with an acknowledge. As long as the EEPROM
receives an acknowledge, it will continue to increment the data word address and serially clock out
sequential data words. When the memory address limit is reached, the data word address will “roll
over” and the sequential read will continue. The sequential read operation is terminated when the
microcontroller does not respond with a zero but does generate a following stop condition (see
Figure11 on page 16).
