(2) tPUR and tPUW are the delays required from the time VCC is stable until the specified operation can be initiated. The write cycle time is the time from a valid stop condition of a write sequence to the end of the internal program/erase cycle. During the write cycle, the bus interface circuits are disabled, SDA is allowed to remain high, and the device does not respond to its slave address. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The CAT24WC129 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 CAT24WC129 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. 3 Doc. No. 1079, Rev. V CAT24WC129 PIN DESCRIPTIONS I2C BUS PROTOCOL SCL: Serial Clock The serial clock input clocks all data transferred into or out of the device. The features of the I2C bus protocol are defined as follows: (1) Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy. 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. (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. WP: Write Protect START Condition This input, when tied to GND, allows write operations to the entire memory. When this pin is tied to Vcc, the top 1/4 array of memory (locations 3000H to 3FFFH) is write protected. When left floating, memory is unprotected. t r a P 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 CAT24WC129 monitors the SDA and SCL lines and will not respond until this condition is met. d e STOP Condition A LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL is HIGH determines the STOP condition. All operations must end with a STOP condition. Figure 1. Bus Timing tHIGH tF tLOW tHD:STA SDA IN o c SDA OUT s i D Figure 2.

No. 1079, Rev. V STOP BIT 4 ADDRESS CAT24WC129 DEVICE ADDRESSING knowledge, the CAT24WC129 will continue to transmit data. If no acknowledge is sent by the Master, the device terminates data transmission and waits for a STOP condition. The bus Master begins a transmission by sending a START condition. The Master sends the address of the particular slave device it is requesting. The seven most significant bits of the 8-bit slave address are fixed as 1010XXX (Fig. 5), where X can be a 0 or 1. 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. WRITE OPERATIONS Byte Write After the Master sends a START condition and the slave address byte, the CAT24WC129 monitors the bus and responds with an acknowledge (on the SDA line) when its address matches the transmitted slave address. The CAT24WC129 then performs a Read or Write operation depending on the state of the R/W bit. a P d e Acknowledge 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. t r 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 the Slave generates an acknowledge, the Master sends two 8-bit address words that are to be written into the address pointers of the CAT24WC129. After receiving another acknowledge from the Slave, the Master device transmits the data to be written into the addressed memory location. The CAT24WC129 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. u n Page Write The CAT24WC129 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. it n When the CAT24WC129 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 ac- o c Figure 4. Acknowledge Timing s i D SCL FROM MASTER The CAT24WC129 writes up to 64 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 63 additional bytes. After each byte has been transmitted, CAT24WC129 will respond with an 1 8 9 DATA OUTPUT FROM TRANSMITTER DATA OUTPUT FROM RECEIVER ACKNOWLEDGE START Figure 5.

The high order bits remain unchanged. read only. The CAT24WC129 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. If the Master transmits more than 64 bytes before sending the STOP condition, the address counter ‘wraps around’, and previously transmitted data will be overwritten. READ OPERATIONS When all 64 bytes are received, and the STOP condition has been sent by the Master, the internal programming cycle begins. At this point, all received data is written to the CAT24WC129 in a single write cycle. Acknowledge Polling 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, CAT24WC129 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 CAT24WC129 is still busy with the write operation, no ACK will be returned. If CAT24WC129 has completed the write operation, an ACK will be returned and the host can then proceed with the next read or write operation. WRITE PROTECTION o c Figure 6.

If the WP pin is tied to VCC, the top 1/4 array of memory (locations 3000H to 3FFFH) is protected and becomes t r The READ operation for the CAT24WC129 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. The CAT24WC129’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=16383), then the counter will ‘wrap around’ to address 0 and continue to clock out data. After the CAT24WC129 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. d e u n Selective/Random Read Selective/Random READ operations allow the Master device to select at random any memory location for a READ operation.

After CAT24WC129 acknowledges, the Master device sends the START condition and the slave address again, this time with the R/W bit set to one. The CAT24WC129 then responds with its acknowledge and sends the 8-bit byte requested. The master device does not send an acknowledge but will generate a STOP condition. data. The CAT24WC129 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. The data being transmitted from CAT24WC129 is outputted sequentially with data from address N followed by data from address N+1. The READ operation address counter increments all of the CAT24WC129 address bits so that the entire memory array can be read during one operation. If more than E (where E=16383) 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 CAT24WC129 sends the initial 8bit byte requested, the Master will respond with an acknowledge which tells the device it requires more Figure 8.
