During data transfer, the data line must remain stable whenever the clock line is high. Changes in data line while the clock line is high will be interpreted as a START or STOP condition. The SCL input is used for positive edge clock data into each EEPROM device and negative edge clock data out of each device. • Serial data (SDA) • Start condition The SDA pin is bidirectional for serial data transfer. The pin is open-drain driven and may be wired-OR with any number of other open-drain or open collector devices. A high-to-low transition of SDA with SCL high is a start condition which must precede any other command (refer to Start and Stop Definition Timing diagram). • A0, A1, A2 • Stop condition The A2, A1 and A0 pins are device address inputs that are hard wired for the HT24LC01/02. As many as eight 1K/2K devices may be addressed on a single bus system (the device addressing is discussed in detail under the Device Addressing section). 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 Start and Stop Definition Timing Diagram). • Acknowledge • Write protect (WP) All addresses and data words are serially transmitted to and from the EEPROM in 8-bit words. The EEPROM sends a zero to acknowledge that it has received each word. This happens during the ninth clock cycle. The HT24LC01/02 has a write protect pin that provides hardware data protection. The write protect pin allows normal read/write operations when connected to the VSS. When the write protect pin is connected to Vcc, the write protection feature is enabled and operates as shown in the following table. WP Pin Status Protect Array HT24LC01 HT24LC02 At VCC Full Array (1K) Full Array (2K) At VSS Normal Read/Write Operations Memory organization Device addressing • HT24LC01, 1K Serial EEPROM The 1K and 2K EEPROM devices all require an 8-bit device address word following a start condition to enable the chip for a read or write operation. The device address word consist of a mandatory one, zero sequence for the first four most significant bits (refer to the diagram showing the Device Address). This is common to all the EEPROM device. Internally organized with 128 8-bit words, the 1K requires a 7-bit data word address for random word addressing. • HT24LC02, 2K Serial EEPROM Internally organized with 256 8-bit words, the 2K requires an 8-bit data word address for random word addressing. The next three bits are the A2, A1 and A0 device address bits for the 1K/2K EEPROM. These three bits must compare to their corresponding hard-wired input pins. Device operations • Clock and data transition Data transfer may be initiated only when the 4 6th May ’99 HT24LC01/02 • Page write The 8th bit of 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. The 1K/2K EEPROM is capable of an 8-byte page write. A page write is initiated the same as byte write, but the microcontroller does not send a stop condition after the first data word is clocked in. Instead, after the EEPROM acknowledges the receipt of the first data word, the microcontroller can transmit up to seven 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. If the comparison of the device address succeed the EEPROM will output a zero at ACK bit. If not, the chip will return to a standby state. Write operations • Byte write The data word address lower three (1K/2K) 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 (refer to Page write timing). A write operation requires an 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. After receiving 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 to the non-volatile memory. All inputs are disabled during this write cycle and EEPROM will not respond until the write is completed (refer to Byte write timing). • Acknowledge polling 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 5 6th May ’99 HT24LC01/02 write cycle, then no ACK will be returned. If the cycle is completed, then the device will return the ACK and the master can then proceed with the next read or write command. • Write protect The HT24LC01/02 can be used as a serial ROM when the WP pin is connected to VCC. Programming will be inhibited and the entire memory will be write-protected. • 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. Acknowledge polling flow • Current address read • Random 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 from the last byte of the last memory page to the first byte of the first page. The address roll over during write 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 generates a following stop condition (refer to Current read timing). A random read requires a dummy byte write sequence to load in the data word address which is then clocked in and acknowledged by the EEPROM. The microcontroller must then 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 generates a following stop condition (refer to Random read timing). 6 6th May ’99 HT24LC01/02 • 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 acknowledgment. As long as the EEPROM receives an acknowledgment, 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 continues. The sequential read operation is terminated when the microcontroller does not respond with a zero but generates a following stop condition. Timing Diagrams Note: The write cycle time tWR is the time from a valid stop condition of a write sequence to the end of the valid start condition of sequential command. 7 6th May ’99 HT24LC01/02 Holtek Semiconductor Inc.
