Triple port EEPROM
Two Wire Serial Interface
(2K+2K EEPROM)
Overview
The triple port EEPROM series consists of two independent banks, and each bank can be controlled separately using
dedicated control pins. The EEPROM also features a control port, which is a third pin separate from the pins used for the
banks, and by accessing the memory areas from this control port, the two-bank configuration (2K bits + 2K bits) can be
used as a pseudo-one-bank configuration (4K bits). Together with the 16-byte page write function, this enables a
reduction in the number of factory write processes.
Furthermore, the EEPROM has a configuration area which is separate from the 2K-bit + 2K-bit area, and by using the
settings stored in this configuration area, it is possible to change the slave address for each port and to set read/write
protection for each port.
This product incorporates SANYO's high performance CMOS EEPROM technology and realizes high-speed operation
and high-level reliability. The interface of this product is compatible with the I2C bus protocol, making it ideal as a
nonvolatile memory for small-scale parameter storage.
In addition, this product also supports DDC2TM, so it can also be used as an EDID data storage memory for display
equipment.

Description of Operation
Access to Bank1 is performed through port 1 (SCL1 / SDA1), and access to Bank2 through port 2 (SCL2 / SDA2).
When read operations are performed, Bank1 and Bank2 can be controlled independently of each other and both banks
can be accessed at the same time. When write operations are performed, it is not possible to access both banks while a
write operation is in progress in one of the banks (including the write wait time).
Both Bank1 and Bank2 can be accessed from the control port (SCLC, SDAC). The two-bank configuration (2K bits +
2K bits) can be used as a pseudo-one-bank configuration (4K bits). Data correlation is guaranteed between the mode in
which accesses are made from port1 or port 2 and the mode in which accesses are made from the control port, enabling
operations such as writing data from control port in a lump and reading data from port 1 or port 2.
Access to the configuration area where the slave addresses of the ports and protect information is stored is made from
the control port.

Pin Functions
(Port1: For Bank1)
SCL1 (serial clock input) pin
The SCL1 pin is the serial clock input pin used to access the Bank1 area, and processes signals at the rising and falling
edges of the SCL1 clock signal.
This pin must be pulled up by a resistor to the VDD level, and wired-ORed with another open drain (or open collector)
output device for use.
While this product is being accessed from the control port, it cannot be accessed from port 1.
SDA1 (serial data input/output) pin
The SDA1 pin is used to transfer serial data to the input/output of the Bank1 side area and it consists of a signal input
pin and n-channel transistor open drain output pin.
Like the SCL1 line, the SDA1 line must be pulled up by a resistor to the VDD level and wired-ORed with another
open drain (or open collector) output device for use.
While this product is being accessed from the control port, it cannot be accessed from port 1.
(Port2: For Bank2)
SCL2 (serial clock input) pin
The SCL2 pin is the serial clock input pin used to access the Bank2 area, and processes signals at the rising and falling
edges of the SCL2 clock signal.
This pin must be pulled up by a resistor to the VDD level, and wired-ORed with another open drain (or open collector)
output device for use.
While this product is being accessed from the control port, it cannot be accessed from port 2.
SDA2 (serial data input/output) pin
The SDA2 pin is used to transfer serial data to the input/output of the Bank2 side area and it consists of a signal input
pin and n-channel transistor open drain output pin.

(Control port: For accessing both banks and for accessing the configuration area)
SCLC (serial clock input) pin
The SCLC pin is the serial clock input pin used for accessing both the Bank1 and Bank2 areas and the configuration
area. The signals are processed at the rising and falling edges of the SCLC clock signal.
The pin must be pulled up by a resistor to the VDD level, and it is wired-ORed with another open drain (or open
collector) output device for use.
SDAC (serial data input/output) pin
The SDAC pin is used to transfer serial data to the input/output of both Bank1 and Bank2 areas and the configuration
area, and it consists of a signal input pin and n-channel transistor open drain output pin.

Functional Description
1. Start condition
When the SCL line is at the high level, the start condition is established by changing the SDA line from high to low.
The operation of the EEPROM as a slave starts in the start condition.
2. Stop condition
When the SCL line is at the high level, the stop condition is established by changing the SDA line from low to high.
When the device is set up for the read sequence, the read operation is suspended when the stop condition is received,
and the device is set to standby mode. When it is set up for the write sequence, the capture of the write data is ended
when the stop condition is received, and the EEPROM internal write operation is started.

5. Device addressing
For the purposes of communication, the master device in the system generates the start condition for the slave device.
Communication with a particular slave device is enabled by sending along the SDA bus the device address, which is 7
bits long, and the read/write command code, which is 1 bit long, immediately following the start condition.
The upper four bits of the device address are called the device code which, for this product, are fixed at “1010b.”
The 3-bit slave address (SA2, SA1, and SA0 for access from port 1; SB2, SB1, and SB0 for access from port 2; SC2
and SC1for access from the control port) following the device code are stored in the configuration area, and any
values can be set for these addresses. However, the device address to be used to access the configuration area is fixed
at “1011_100b” and cannot be changed.
When the device code input from SDA and the slave addresses are compared with the product’s device code and
configuration area that were set at the mounting stage and found to match, the product sends the acknowledge signal
during the ninth clock cycle period, and initiates the read or write operation in accordance with the read or write
command code. If they do not match, the EEPROM returns to standby mode. When a read operation is performed
immediately after the slave device has been switched, the random read command must be used.

6 Internal mode
This product functions in bank mode when it is accessed from port 1 or port 2 and in combined mode when it is
accessed from the control port.
6-1. Bank mode
The EEPOM functions in the bank mode when it is accessed from port 1 or port 2. In the bank mode, Bank1 is
controlled from the port 1 pins (SCL1, SDA1), and Bank2 is controlled from the port 2 pins (SCL2, SDA2).
When read operations are performed, the two banks can be controlled independently of each other, and access to
different addresses can be made at the same time. This enables the EEPROM to be handled as two independent
EEPROM devices incorporated in a single package. In turn, this makes it possible for the Bank1 and Bank2 sides to
be connected to the MCU of separate systems.
When write operations are performed, it is not possible to write data in two banks at the same time. After the write
data has been input into one of the banks and the internal rewriting operation has started, access to the two banks is
not possible during the write time tWC period.

6-2. Combine mode
The EEPROM functions in the combined mode when it is accessed from the control port. In the combined mode,
Bank1 and Bank2 are controlled from the control port pins (SCLC, SDAC). The combined mode uses the two-bank
configuration (2K bits + 2K bits) as a pseudo-one-bank configuration (4K bits). Since the memory area is processed
as a single 4K-bit bank in this mode, the MSB address changes from A7 to A8. Input A8=0 to control the Bank1 area,
and input A8=1 to control the Bank2 area.
When, in the combined mode, the last address (0FFh) of Bank1 has been reached in a sequential read operation, the
address (100h) in the Bank2 side is sequentially read. Similarly, when the last address (1FFh) of Bank2 has been
reached, it is rolled over to the Bank1 address (000h) and continues to be read into this address.
Data correlation is guaranteed between the bank mode and combined mode, enabling operations while switching the
mode such as performing write in the combined mode and read in the bank mode.
While the EEPROM is functioning in the combined mode, access from port 1 and port 2 is disabled. In the bank
mode, the read operation stops while data is being read from the ports. And, in the bank mode, while the data of one
of the banks is being written, access from the control port is disabled until the internal write operation is completed.

7. Configuration area
This product has a configuration area equivalent to 16 addresses that is separate from Bank1 and Bank2. Refer to the
above table for the memory map of the configuration area. Access to the configuration area is performed by inputting
device address “1011_100b” from the control port.
7-1. Slave address bits (SA2, SA1, SA0, SB2, SB1, SB0, SC2, SC1)
The slave address bits are used to set the slave address in the device address. This product does not have slave
address pins, but has slave address bits inside instead. By changing the values of these bits, it is possible to change
the slave addresses at any time. Each port contains a slave address bit, and a different slave address can be assigned
to the ports.

8 EEPROM write operation
8-1. Byte writing
When the EEPROM receives the 7-bit device address and write command code “0” after the start condition, it
generates an acknowledge signal. After this, if it receives the 8-bit word address, generates an acknowledge signal,
receives the 8-bit write data, generates an acknowledge signal and then receives the stop condition, the internal write
operation of the EEPROM in the designated memory address will start. Rewriting is completed in the tWC period
after the stop condition. During an EEPROM internal write operation, no input is accepted and no acknowledge
signals are generated.

8-2. Page writing
This product enables pages with up to 16 bytes to be written. The basic data transfer procedure is the same as for byte
writing: Following the start condition, the 7-bit device address and write command code “0,” word address (n), and
data (n) are input in this order while confirming acknowledge “0” every 9 bits. The page write mode is established if,
after data (n) is input, the write data (n+1) is input without inputting the stop condition. After this, the write data
equivalent to the largest page size can be received by a continuous process of repeating the receiving of the 8-bit
write data and generating the acknowledge signals.
At the point when the write data (n+1) has been input, the lower 4 bits (A0-A3) of the word addresses are
automatically incremented to form the (n+1) address. In this way, the write data can be successively input, and the
word address on the page is incremented each time the write data is input. If the write data exceeds 16 bytes or the
last address of the page is exceeded, the word address on the page is rolled over. Write data will be input into the
same address two or more times, but in such cases the write data that was input last will take effect. Finally, the
EEPROM internal write operation corresponding to the page size for which the write data is received starts from the
designated memory address when the stop condition is received.

8-3. Acknowledge polling
Acknowledge polling is used to find out when the EEPROM internal write operation is completed. When the stop
condition is received and the EEPROM starts rewriting, all operations are prohibited, and no response can be given to
the signals sent by the master device. Therefore, in order to find out when the EEPROM internal write operation is
completed, the start condition, device address and write command code are sent from the master device to the
EEPROM (slave device), and the response of the slave device is detected.
In other words, if the slave device does not send the acknowledge signal, it means that the internal write operation is
in progress; conversely, if it does send the acknowledge signal, it means that the internal write operation has been
completed.

9 EEPROM read operations
9-1. Current address reading
The address equivalent to the memory address accessed last +1 is held as the internal address of the EEPROM for
both write* and read operations. Therefore, provided that the master device has recognized the position of the
EEPROM address pointer, data can be read from the memory address with the current address pointer without
specifying the word address.
As with writing, current address reading involves receiving the 7-bit device address and read command code “1”
following the start condition, at which time the EEPROM generates an acknowledge signal. After this, the 8-bit data
of the (n+1) address is output serially starting with the highest bits. After the 8 bits have been output, by not sending
an acknowledge signal and inputting the stop condition, the EEPROM completes the read operation and is set to
standby mode.
If the previous read address is the last address, the address for the current address reading is rolled over to become
address 0.
* The current address assigned after a page write is the number of bytes written at the designated word address
plus 1 if the volume of the write data is greater than 1 byte or less than or equal to 16 bytes, and is the designated
word address if the volume of the write data is 16 bytes or more. If the last address of the page (A3 to A0 =
1111b) is specified as the word address for a byte write, the internal address after the write becomes the first
address in that page (A3 to A0 = 0000b).

9-2. Random read
Random read is a mode in which any memory address is specified and its data read. The address is specified by a
dummy write input.
First, when the EEPROM receives the 7-bit device address and write command code “0” following the start condition,
it generates an acknowledge signal. It then receives the 8-bit word address, and generates an acknowledge signal.
Through these operations, the word address is loaded into the address counter inside the EEPROM.
Next, the start condition is input again and the current read is initiated. This causes the data of the word address that
was input using the dummy write input to be output. If, after the data is output, an acknowledge signal is not sent and
the stop condition is input, reading is completed, and the EEPROM returns to standby mode.

9-3. Sequential read
In this mode, the data is read continuously, and sequential read operations can be performed with both current address
read and random read. If, after the 8-bit data has been output, acknowledge “0” is input and reading is continued
without issuing the stop condition, the address is incremented, and the data of the next address is output.
If acknowledge “0” continues to be input after the data has been output in this way, the data is successively output
while the address is incremented. When the last address is reached, it is rolled over to address 0, and the data
continues to be read. As with current address read and random read, the operation is completed by inputting the stop
condition without sending an acknowledge signal.
*: For accesses from port 1 or port 2, the last address is FFh and for accesses to Bank1 or Bank2 from the control port,
it is 1FFh. And, for accesses to the configuration area, the last address is Fh.

10. Operations during protect
The access level can be set for each port by using the values of the protect bits stored in the configuration area.
However, access to the configuration area from the control port (device address 1011_100b) is always enabled
regardless of the access level of the control port.
10-1. Access disabled state (PB1n=0, PB0n=0)
When the protect bits in the configuration area are set to”00b,” all the operations from the corresponding port are
protected, and the access from the port is disabled. When a read or write operation is input from a port in this state,
the product does not start the operation and enters the standby state. In addition, it does not return an acknowledge
signal.
10-2. Read/write disabled state (PB1n=0, PB0n=1)
When the protect bits in the configuration area are set to “01b,” the read and write operations from the corresponding
port are protected. When a read or write operation is input from a port in this state, the product returns an
acknowledge signal and enters the standby state without initiating a read or write operation.
*: In read operations, the product generates an acknowledge signal on the high-to-low transition of the SCL clock in
the 9th cycle from the start condition. It enters the standby state on the low-to-high transition of the SCL clock in the
same cycle.
10-3. Write prohibited state (PB1n=1, PB0n=0)
When the protect bits in the configuration area are set to “10b,” the write operations from the corresponding port are
protected. When a write operation is input from a port in this state, the product returns an acknowledge signal and
enters the standby state without initiating a write operation.
10-4. Read/write enabled state (PB1n=1, PB0n=1)
When the protect bits in the configuration area are set to “11b,” the read operations and write operations from the
corresponding port are enabled.

Application Notes
1) Software reset function
Software reset (start condition + 9 dummy clock cycles + start condition), shown in the figure below, is executed in
order to avoid erroneous operation after power-on and to reset while the command input sequence. During the
dummy clock input period, the SDA bus must be opened (set to high by a pull-up resistor). Since it is possible for
the ACK output and read data to be output from the EEPROM during the dummy clock period, forcibly entering H
will result in an overcurrent flow.
Note that this software reset function does not work during the internal write cycle.

2) Pull-up resistor of SDA pin
Due to the demands of the I2C bus protocol function, the SDA pin must be connected to a pull-up resistor (with a
resistance from several kΩ to several tens of kΩ) without fail. The appropriate value must be selected for this
resistance (RPU) on the basis of the VIL and IIL of the microcontroller and other devices controlling this product as
well as the VOL–IOL characteristics of the product. Generally, when the resistance is too high, the operating
frequency will be restricted; conversely, when it is too low, the operating current consumption will increase.
RPU maximum resistance
The maximum resistance must be set in such a way that the bus potential, which is determined by the sum total (IL)
of the input leaks of the devices connected to the SDA bus and by RPU, can completely satisfy the input high level
(VIH min) of the microcontroller and EEPROM. However, a resistance value that satisfies SDA rise time tR and fall
time tF must be set.
RPU maximum value = (VDD - VIH)/IL
Example: When VDD=3.0V and IL= 2μA
RPU maximum value = (3.0V − 3.0V × 0.8)/2μA = 300kΩ
RPU minimum value
A resistance corresponding to the low-level output
voltage (VOL max) of SANYO’s EEPROM must be set.
RPU minimum value = (VDD − VOL)/IOL

Example: When VDD=3.0V, VOL = 0.4V and IOL = 1mA
RPU minimum value = (3.0V − 0.4)/1mA = 2.6kΩ
Recommended RPU setting
RPU is set to strike a good balance between the operating frequency requirements and power consumption. If it is
assumed that the SDA load capacitance is 50pF and the SDA output data strobe time is 500ns, RPU will be about
RPU = 500ns/50pF = 10kΩ.

After the power has stabilized, the steps in A must be executed, then software reset must be executed.
4) Noise filter for the SCL and SDA pins
This product contains a filter circuit for eliminating noise at the SCL and SDA pins. Pulses of 100ns or less are not
recognized because of this function.
5) Function to inhibit writing when supply voltage is low
This product contains a supply voltage monitoring circuit that inhibits inadvertent writing below the guaranteed
operating supply voltage range. The data is protected by ensuring that write operations are not started at voltages
(typ.) of 1.3V and below.
6) Initial values in the configuration
The slave address values as well as the slave address enable bit and protect bit values of the ports are stored in the
configuration area. These values are set as follows when the EEPROM is shipped:
- Slave address values: “000b” for all ports
- Slave address enable bits: “1b” for all ports (enabled)
- Protect bit values: “11b” for all ports (no protection)
When these values are to be changed, input the device address “1011_100b” from the control port, and perform the
write operation.

7) Precautions when changing the mode
This product enables to actively change the bank accessing mode during period in which no write operation is
performed between the bank operation mode (access from port 1 or port 2 to Bank1 or Bank2) and the combined
operation mode (access from the control port to both banks). However, the current address value for each mode is not
held internally. When conducting read operations after changing the mode, random access read must be performed
without fail.
When switching the bank accessing mode, start the operations in the next mode after the operations in the previous
mode have been completed (when the stop condition is input or no acknowledge “0” input for a sequential read).
8) Writing with a ROM writer from the control port
This product enables two-bank configuration (2K bits + 2K bits) to be used as a pseudo-one-bank configuration (4K
bits) by accessing the memory areas from the control port (SCLC, SDAC). As a result, data can be written using a
ROM writer with the EEPROM serving as a regular 4K-bit EEPROM. Fix the port 1 and port 2 pins to high or low.
