DESCRIPTION
The Microchip Technology Inc. 24LCS52 is a 2K bit
Electrically Erasable PROM capable of operation
across a broad voltage range (2.5V to 5.5V). This
device has a software write protect feature for the lower
half of the array, as well as an external pin that can be
used to write protect the entire array. The software write
protect feature is enabled by sending the device a special command, and once this feature has been enabled,
it cannot be reversed. In addition to the software protect feature, there is a WP pin that can be used to write
protect the entire array, regardless of whether the software write protect register has been written or not. This
allows the system designer to protect none, half or all of
the array, depending on the application. The device is
organized as a single block of 256 x 8-bit memory with
a 2-wire serial interface. Low voltage design permits
operation down to 2.5 volts with typical standby and
active currents of only 5 µA and 1 mA respectively. The
device has a page-write capability for up to 16 bytes of
data. The device is available in the standard 8-pin DIP,
8-pin SOIC and TSSOP packages.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The 24LCS52 supports a bi-directional 2-wire bus and
data transmission protocol. A device that sends data
onto the bus is defined as transmitter, and a device
receiving data as receiver. The bus has to be controlled
by a master device which generates the serial clock
(SCL), controls the bus access, and generates the
START and STOP conditions, while the 24LCS52
works as slave. Both master and slave can operate as
transmitter or receiver but the master device determines which mode is activated.
3.0
BUS CHARACTERISTICS
The following bus protocol has been defined:
• Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is
not busy.
• During data transfer, the data line must remain
stable whenever the clock line is HIGH. Changes
in the data line while the clock line is HIGH will be
interpreted as a START or STOP condition.
Accordingly, the following bus conditions have been
defined (Figure 3-1).
3.1
Bus not Busy (A)
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH.
3.2
Start Data Transfer (B)
A HIGH to LOW transition of the SDA line while the
clock (SCL) is HIGH determines a START condition. All
commands must be preceded by a START condition.
3.3
Stop Data Transfer (C)
A LOW to HIGH transition of the SDA line while the
clock (SCL) is HIGH determines a STOP condition. All
operations must be ended with a STOP condition.
3.4
Data Valid (D)
The state of the data line represents valid data when,
after a START condition, the data line is stable for the
duration of the HIGH period of the clock signal.
The data on the line must be changed during the LOW
period of the clock signal. There is one clock pulse per
bit of data.
FIGURE 3-1:
SCL
(A)
Each data transfer is initiated with a START condition
and terminated with a STOP condition. The number of
the data bytes transferred between the START and
STOP conditions is determined by the master device
and is theoretically unlimited, although only the last sixteen will be stored when doing a write operation. When
an overwrite does occur it will replace data in a first in
first out fashion.
3.5
Acknowledge
Each receiving device, when addressed, is obliged to
generate an acknowledge after the reception of each
byte. The master device must generate an extra clock
pulse which is associated with this acknowledge bit.
Note:
The 24LCS52 does not generate any
acknowledge bits if an internal programming cycle is in progress.
The device that acknowledges has to pull down the
SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse in such a
way that the SDA line is stable LOW during the HIGH
period of the acknowledge related clock pulse. Of
course, setup and hold times must be taken into
account. A master must signal an end of data to the
slave by not generating an acknowledge bit on the last
byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this case,
the slave must leave the data line HIGH to enable the
master to generate the STOP condition.
3.6
Device Addressing
A control byte is the first byte received following the
START condition from the master device. The first part
of the control byte consists of a 4-bit control code which
is set to 1010 for normal read and write operations and
0110 for writing to the write protect register. The control
byte is followed by three chip select bits (A2, A1, A0).
The chip select bits allow the use of up to eight
24LCS52 devices on the same bus and are used to
determine which device is accessed. The chip select
bits in the control byte must correspond to the logic levels on the corresponding A2, A1 and A0 pins for the
device to respond. The device will not acknowledge if
you attempt a read command with the control code set
to 0110.

another acknowledge signal from the 24LCS52 the
master device will transmit the data word to be written
into the addressed memory location. The 24LCS52
acknowledges again and the master generates a stop
condition. This initiates the internal write cycle, and during this time the 24LCS52 will not generate acknowledge signals (Figure 4-1). If an attempt is made to write
to the array when the software or hardware write protection has been enabled, the device will acknowledge
the command but no data will be written. The write
cycle time must be observed even if the write protection
is enabled.

The write control byte, word address and the first data
byte are transmitted to the 24LCS52 in the same way
as in a byte write. But instead of generating a stop condition, the master transmits up to 15 additional data
bytes to the 24LCS52 which are temporarily stored in
the on-chip page buffer and will be written into the
memory after the master has transmitted a stop condition. After the receipt of each word, the four lower order
address pointer bits are internally incremented by one.
The higher order four bits of the word address remains
constant. If the master should transmit more than 16
bytes prior to generating the stop condition, the
address counter will roll over and the previously
received data will be overwritten. As with the byte write
operation, once the stop condition is received an internal write cycle will begin (Figure 4-2). If an attempt is
made to write to the array when the hardware write protection has been enabled, the device will acknowledge
the command but no data will be written. The write
cycle time must be observed even if the write protection
is enabled.

WRITE OPERATIONS

Byte Write
Following the start signal from the master, the device
code(4 bits), the chip select bits (3 bits), and the R/W
bit which is a logic low is placed onto the bus by the
master transmitter. This indicates to the addressed
slave receiver that a byte with a word address will follow
after it has generated an acknowledge bit during the
ninth clock cycle. Therefore the next byte transmitted by
the master is the word address and will be written into
the address pointer of the 24LCS52. After receiving

ACKNOWLEDGE POLLING
6.0
Since the device will not acknowledge during a write
cycle, this can be used to determine when the cycle is
complete (this feature can be used to maximize bus
throughput). Once the stop condition for a write command has been issued from the master, the device initiates the internally timed write cycle. ACK polling can
be initiated immediately. This involves the master sending a start condition followed by the control byte for a
write command (R/W = 0). If the device is still busy with
the write cycle, then no ACK will be returned. If the
cycle is complete, then the device will return the ACK
and the master can then proceed with the next read or
write command. See Figure 5-1 for flow diagram.

WRITE PROTECTION
The 24LCS52 has a software write protect feature that
allows the lower half of the array (addresses 00h - 7Fh)
to be permanently write protected, as well as a WP pin
that can be used to protect the entire array.
6.1
Software Write Protect
The software write protect feature is invoked by writing
to the write protect register. This is done by sending a
command similar to a normal write command. As
shown in Figure 6-1, the write protect register is written
by sending a write command with the slave address set
to 0110 instead of 1010 and the address bits and data
bits are don’t cares. Once the software write protect
register has been written, the device will not acknowledge the 0110 control byte. Once the software write
protect register has been written, the write protection is enabled and cannot be reversed, even if the
device is powered down.
6.2
Hardware Write Protect
The WP pin can be tied to Vcc, VSS, or left floating. If
tied to VCC, the entire array will be write protected,
regardless of whether the software write protect register has been written or not. If the WP pin is set to VCC,
it will prevent the software write protect register from
being written. If the WP is tied to VSS or left floating,
then write protection is determined by the status of the
software write protect register.

READ OPERATION
24LCS52 as part of a write operation. After the word
address is sent, the master generates a start condition
following the acknowledge. This terminates the write
operation, but not before the internal address pointer is
set. Then the master issues the control byte again but
with the R/W bit set to a one. The 24LCS52 will then
issue an acknowledge and transmits the eight bit data
word. The master will not acknowledge the transfer but
does generate a stop condition and the 24LCS52 discontinues transmission (Figure 7-2). After this command, the internal address counter will point to the
address location following the one that was just read.
Read operations are initiated in the same way as write
operations with the exception that the R/W bit of the
slave address is set to one. There are three basic types
of read operations: current address read, random read,
and sequential read.
7.1
Current Address Read
The 24LCS52 contains an address counter that maintains the address of the last word accessed, internally
incremented by one. Therefore, if the previous read
access was to address n, the next current address read
operation would access data from address n + 1. Upon
receipt of the slave address with the R/W bit set to one,
the 24LCS52 issues an acknowledge and transmits the
eight bit data word. The master will not acknowledge
the transfer but does generate a stop condition and the
24LCS52 discontinues transmission (Figure 7-1).
7.2
7.3
Sequential reads are initiated in the same way as a random read except that after the 24LCS52 transmits the
first data byte, the master issues an acknowledge as
opposed to a stop condition in a random read. This
directs the 24LCS52 to transmit the next sequentially
addressed 8-bit word (Figure 7-3).
Random Read
To provide sequential reads the 24LCS52 contains an
internal address pointer which is incremented by one at
the completion of each operation. This address pointer
allows the entire memory contents to be serially read
during one operation.
Random read operations allow the master to access
any memory location in a random manner. To perform
this type of read operation, first the word address must
be set. This is done by sending the word address to the

Contiguous Addressing Across
Multiple Devices
The chip select bits A2, A1, A0 can be used to expand
the contiguous address space for up to 16K bits by adding up to eight 24LCS52 devices on the same bus. In
this case, software can use A0 of the control byte as
address bit A8, A1 as address bit A9, and A2 as
address bit A10. It is not possible to sequentially read
across device boundaries.
8.0
PIN DESCRIPTIONS
8.1
SDA Serial Address/Data Input/Output
This is a bi-directional pin used to transfer addresses
and data into and data out of the device. It is an open
drain terminal, therefore the SDA bus requires a pull-up
resistor to VCC (typical 10kΩ for 100 kHz, 1kΩ for 400
kHz).
For normal data transfer SDA is allowed to change only
during SCL low. Changes during SCL high are reserved
for indicating the START and STOP conditions.
8.2
SCL Serial Clock
This input is used to synchronize the data transfer from
and to the device.
8.3
A0, A1, A2
The levels on these inputs are compared with the corresponding bits in the slave address. The chip is
selected if the compare is true.
Up to eight 24LCS52 devices may be connected to the
same bus by using different chip select bit combinations. These inputs must be connected to either Vcc or
Vss.
8.4
WP
This is the hardware write protect pin. It can be tied to
VCC, VSS, or left floating. If tied to Vcc, the hardware
write protection is enabled. If the WP pin is tied to Vss
the hardware write protection is disabled. If the WP pin
is left floating, an internal pull down resistor will pull the
WP pin to Vss and the hardware write protection will be
disabled.
8.5
Noise Protection
The 24LCS52 employs a VCC threshold detector circuit
which disables the internal erase/write logic if the VCC
is below 1.5 volts at nominal conditions.
The SCL and SDA inputs have Schmitt trigger and filter
circuits which suppress noise spikes to assure proper
device operation even on a noisy bus.
