FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The 24AA32 supports a bidirectional two-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 must 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 24AA32 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
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.
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.
The following bus protocol has been defined:
3.5
• 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.
Each receiving device, when addressed, is obliged to
generate an acknowledge signal after the reception of
each byte. The master device must generate an extra
clock pulse which is associated with this acknowledge
bit.
Note:
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
Acknowledge
The 24AA32 does not generate any
acknowledge bits if an internal programming cycle is in progress.
A device that acknowledges must 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. During reads, 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 (24AA32) will leave the data line HIGH
to enable the master to generate the STOP condition.
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.

Device Addressing
FIGURE 3-2:
A control byte is the first byte received following the
start condition from the master device. The control byte
consists of a four bit control code; for the 24AA32 this
is set as 1010 binary for read and write operations. The
next three bits of the control byte are the device select
bits (A2, A1, A0). They are used by the master device
to select which of the eight devices are to be accessed.
These bits are in effect the three most significant bits of
the word address. The last bit of the control byte
defines the operation to be performed. When set to a
one a read operation is selected, and when set to a
zero a write operation is selected. The next two bytes
received define the address of the first data byte
(Figure 3-3). Because only A11...A0 are used, the
upper four address bits must be zeros. The most significant bit of the most significant byte of the address is
transferred first.

Following the start condition, the 24AA32 monitors the

acknowledge signal on the SDA line. Depending on
the state of the R/W bit, the 24AA32 will select a read
or write operation.

WRITE OPERATION
4.1
Split Endurance
The 24AA32 acknowledges again and the master generates a stop condition. This initiates the internal write
cycle, and during this time the 24AA32 will not generate
acknowledge signals (Figure 4-1).
The 24AA32 is organized as a continuous 32K block of
memory. However, the first 4K, starting at address 000,
is rated at 10,000,000 E/W cycles guaranteed. The
remainder of the array, 28K bits, is rated at 100,000 E/
W cycles guaranteed. This feature is helpful in applications in which some data change frequently, while a
majority of the data change infrequently. One example
would be a cellular telephone in which last-number
redial and microcontroller scratch pad require a highendurance block, while speed dials and lookup tables
change infrequently and so require only a standard
endurance rating.
4.2
Byte Write
Following the start condition from the master, the control code (four bits), the device select (three bits), and
the R/W bit which is a logic low are clocked 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 high-order
byte of the word address and will be written into the
address pointer of the 24AA32. The next byte is the
least significant address byte. After receiving another
acknowledge signal from the 24AA32 the master
device will transmit the data word to be written into the
addressed memory location.

BUS ACTIVITY
The write control byte, word address and the first data
byte are transmitted to the 24AA32 in the same way as
in a byte write. But instead of generating a stop condition, the master transmits up to eight pages of eight
data bytes each (64 bytes total) which are temporarily
stored in the on-chip page cache of the 24AA32. They
will be written from cache into the EEPROM array after
the master has transmitted a stop condition. After the
receipt of each word, the six lower order address
pointer bits are internally incremented by one. The
higher order seven bits of the word address remain
constant. If the master should transmit more than eight
bytes prior to generating the stop condition (writing
across a page boundary), the address counter (lower
three bits) will roll over and the pointer will be incremented to point to the next line in the cache. This can
continue to occur up to eight times or until the cache is
full, at which time a stop condition should be generated
by the master. If a stop condition is not received, the
cache pointer will roll over to the first line (byte 0) of the
cache, and any further data received will overwrite previously captured data. The stop condition can be sent
at any time during the transfer. As with the byte write
operation, once a stop condition is received, an internal
write cycle will begin. The 64-byte cache will continue
to capture data until a stop condition occurs or the operation is aborted (Figure 4-2).

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 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.

6.0
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.
6.1
Random Read
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
24AA32 as part of a write operation (R/W bit set to 0).
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
24AA32 will then issue an acknowledge and transmit
the eight bit data word. The master will not acknowledge the transfer but does generate a stop condition
which causes the 24AA32 to discontinue transmission
(Figure 6-2).

(ACK = 0)?
Current Address Read
The 24AA32 contains an address counter that maintains the address of the last word accessed, internally
incremented by one. Therefore, if the previous access
(either a read or write operation) was to address n (n is
any legal address), the next current address read operation would access data from address n + 1. Upon
receipt of the slave address with R/W bit set to one, the
24AA32 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
24AA32 discontinues transmission (Figure 6-1).

Contiguous Addressing Across
Multiple Devices
The device select bits A2, A1, A0 can be used to
expand the contiguous address space for up to 256K
bits by adding up to eight 24AA32's on the same bus.
In this case, software can use A0 of the control byte as
address bit A12, A1 as address bit A13, and A2 as
address bit A14.
6.4
Sequential Read
Sequential reads are initiated in the same way as a random read except that after the 24AA32 transmits the
first data byte, the master issues an acknowledge as
opposed to the stop condition used in a random read.
This acknowledge directs the 24AA32 to transmit the
next sequentially addressed 8 bit word (Figure 6-3).
Following the final byte transmitted to the master, the
master will NOT generate an acknowledge but will generate a stop condition.
FIGURE 6-2:
S
T
A
R
T
SDA LINE
To provide sequential reads the 24AA32 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. The address pointer, however,
will not roll over from address 07FF to address 0000. It
will roll from 07FF to unused memory space.
6.5
Noise Protection
The SCL and SDA inputs have filter circuits which suppress noise spikes to ensure proper device operation
even on a noisy bus. All I/O lines incorporate Schmitt
triggers for 400 kHz (Fast Mode) compatibility.

6.6
PAGE CACHE AND ARRAY MAPPING
The cache is a 64 byte (8 pages x 8 bytes) FIFO buffer.
The cache allows the loading of up to 64 bytes of data
before the write cycle is actually begun, effectively providing a 64-byte burst write at the maximum bus rate.
Whenever a write command is initiated, the cache
starts loading and will continue to load until a stop bit is
received to start the internal write cycle. The total
length of the write cycle will depend on how many
pages are loaded into the cache before the stop bit is
given. Maximum cycle time for each page is 5 ms. Even
if a page is only partially loaded, it will still require the
same cycle time as a full page. If more than 64 bytes of
data are loaded before the stop bit is given, the address
pointer will 'wrap around' to the beginning of cache
page 0 and existing bytes in the cache will be overwritten. The device will not respond to any commands
while the write cycle is in progress.
6.7
Cache Write Starting at a Page
Boundary
If a write command begins at a page boundary
(address bits A2, A1 and A0 are zero), then all data
loaded into the cache will be written to the array in
sequential addresses. This includes writing across a
4K block boundary. In the example shown below,
(Figure 4-2) a write command is initiated starting at
byte 0 of page 3 with a fully loaded cache (64 bytes).
The first byte in the cache is written to byte 0 of page 3
(of the array), with the remaining pages in the cache
written to sequential pages in the array. A write cycle is
executed after each page is written. Since the write
begins at page 3 and 8 pages are loaded into the
cache, the last 3 pages of the cache are written to the
next row in the array.
6.8
Cache Write Starting at a Non-Page
Boundary
When a write command is initiated that does not begin
at a page boundary (i.e., address bits A2, A1 and A0
are not all zero), it is important to note how the data is
loaded into the cache, and how the data in the cache is
written to the array. When a write command begins, the
first byte loaded into the cache is always loaded into
page 0. The byte within page 0 of the cache where the
load begins is determined by the three least significant
address bits (A2, A1, A0) that were sent as part of the
write command. If the write command does not start at
byte 0 of a page and the cache is fully loaded, then the
last byte(s) loaded into the cache will roll around to
page 0 of the cache and fill the remaining empty bytes.
If more than 64 bytes of data are loaded into the cache,
data already loaded will be overwritten. In the example
shown in Figure 7-2, a write command has been initiated starting at byte 2 of page 3 in the array with a fully
loaded cache of 64 bytes. Since the cache started loading at byte 2, the last two bytes loaded into the cache
will'roll over' and be loaded into the first two bytes of
 2004 Microchip Technology Inc.
page 0 (of the cache). When the stop bit is sent, page
0 of the cache is written to page 3 of the array. The
remaining pages in the cache are then loaded sequentially to the array. A write cycle is executed after each
page is written. If a partially loaded page in the cache
remains when the STOP bit is sent, only the bytes that
have been loaded will be written to the array.
6.9
Power Management
This design incorporates a power standby mode when
the device is not in use and automatically powers off
after the normal termination of any operation when a
stop bit is received and all internal functions are complete. This includes any error conditions, ie. not receiving an acknowledge or stop condition per the two-wire
bus specification. The device also incorporates VDD
monitor circuitry to prevent inadvertent writes (data corruption) during low-voltage conditions. The VDD monitor circuitry is powered off when the device is in standby
mode in order to further reduce power consumption.

address block occupied by the device in the address
map. A particular device is selected by transmitting the
corresponding bits (A2, A1, A0) in the control byte
(Figure 3-3).
7.2
SDA Serial Address/Data Input/Output
This is a bidirectional 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 pullup
resistor to VCC (typical 10KΩ for 100 kHz, 2 KΩ 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.
7.3
SCL Serial Clock
This input is used to synchronize the data transfer from
and to the device.
