DESCRIPTION
The IS25C32B is an electrically erasable PROM device
that uses the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) for
communications. The IS25C32B is 32Kbit (4096 x 8). It
is offered in a wide operating voltage range of 2.7V to
3.6V to be compatible with most application voltages.
ISSI designed the IS25C32B to be an efficient SPI
EEPROM solution. The devices are packaged in 8-pin
SOIC (JEDEC) and 8-pin TSSOP.
The functional features of the IS25C32B allows them to
be among the most advanced serial non-volatile memories available. Each device has a Chip-Select (CS) pin,
and a 3-wire interface of Serial Data In (SI), Serial Data
Out (SO), and Serial Clock (SCK). While the 3-wire
interface of the IS25C32B provides for high-speed access, a HOLD pin allows the memories to ignore the
interface in a suspended state; later the HOLD pin reactivates communication without re-initializing the serial
sequence. A Status Register facilitates a flexible write
protection mechanism, and a device-ready bit (RDY).

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Serial Clock (SCK): This timing signal provides
synchronization between the microcontroller and
IS25C32B. Op-Codes, byte addresses, and data are
latched on SI with a rising edge of the SCK. Data on
SO is refreshed on the falling edge of SCK for SPI
modes (0,0) and (1,1).
Serial Data Input (SI): This is the input pin for all data
that the IS25C32B is required to receive.
Serial Data Output (SO): This is the output pin for all
data transmitted from the IS25C32B.
2
Chip Select (CS): The CS pin activates the device.
Upon power-up, CS should follow Vcc. When the device is to be enabled for instruction input, the signal requires a High-to-Low transition. While CS is stable Low,
the master and slave will communicate via SCK, SI, and
SO signals. Upon completion of communication, CS
must be driven High. At this moment, the slave device
may start its internal write cycle. When CS is high, the
device enters a power-saving standby mode, unless an
internal write operation is underway. During this mode,
the SO pin becomes high impedance.
Write Protect (WP): The purpose of this input signal is
to initiate Hardware Write Protection mode. This mode
prevents the Block Protection bits and the WPEN bit in
the Status Register from being altered. To cause Hardware Write Protection, WP must be Low at the same
time WPEN is 1. WP may be hardwired to Vcc or GND.
HOLD (HOLD): This input signal is used to suspend
the device in the middle of a serial sequence and temporarily ignore further communication on the bus (SI,
SO, SCK). Together with Chip Select, the HOLD signal
allows multiple slaves to share the bus. The HOLD
signal transitions must occur only when SCK is Low,
and be held stable during SCK transitions. (See Figure
8 for Hold timing) To disable this feature, HOLD may be
hardwired to Vcc.

SERIAL INTERFACE DESCRIPTION
MASTER: The device that provides a clock signal.
SLAVE: The IS25C32B is a slave because the clock
signal is an input.
TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER: The IS25C32B has both
data input (SI) and data output (SO).
MSB: The most significant bit. It is always the first bit
transmitted or received.
OP-CODE: The first byte transmitted to the slave following CS transition to LOW. If the OP-CODE is a valid
member of the IS25C32B instruction set (Table 3), then
it is decoded appropriately. If the OP-CODE is not valid,
and the SO pin remains in high impedance.

STATUS REGISTER
The status register contains 8-bits for write protection
control and write status. (See Table 1). It is the only
region of memory other than the main array that is accessible by the user.

Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit1 Bit 0
WPEN X
X
X
BP1 BP0 WEN RDY
Notes:
1. X = Don't care bit.
2. During internal write cycles, bits 0 to 7 are temporarily 1's.
Block Protect (BP1, BP0), Bits 2-3: Together, these
bits represent one of four block protection configurations implemented for the memory array. (See Table 2
for details.)
BP0 and BP1 are non-volatile cells similar to regular
array cells, and factory programmed to 0. The block
of memory defined by these bits is always protected,
regardless of the setting of WPEN, WP , or WEN.
Table 2. Block Protection
Level
The Status Register is Read-Only if either: a) Hardware
Write Protection is enabled or b) WEN is set to 0. If
neither is true, it can be modified by a valid instruction.
Ready (RDY), Bit 0: When RDY = 1, it indicates that
the device is busy with a write cycle. RDY = 0 indicates
that the device is ready for an instruction. If RDY = 1,
the only command that will be handled by the device is
Read Status Register.
Write Enable (WEN), Bit 1: This bit represents the
status of device write protection. If WEN = 0, the Status
Register and the entire array is protected from modification, regardless of the setting of WPEN, WP pin, or
block protection. The only way to set WEN to 1 is via
the Write Enable command (WREN). WEN is reset to 0
upon power-up.

Don’t Care, Bits 4-6: Each of these bits can receive either 0 or 1, but values will not be retained. When these
bits are read from the register, they are always 0.
Write Protect Enable (WPEN), Bit 7: This bit can be
used in conjunction with WP pin to enable Hardware
Write Protection, which causes the Status Register to
be read-only. The memory array is not protected by this
mode. Hardware Write Protection requires that WP = 0
and WPEN = 1; it is disabled otherwise. Note: WPEN
cannot be changed from 1 to 0 if the WP pin is already
set to Low. (See Table 4 for data protection relationship)

DEVICE OPERATION
The operations of the IS25C32B are controlled by a set of instructions that are clocked-in serially SI pin. (See Table
3). To begin an instruction, the chip select (CS) should be dropped Low. Subsequently, each Low-to-High transition
of the clock (SK) will latch a stable value on the SI pin. After the 8-bit op-code, it may be appropriate to continue to
input an address or data to SI, or to output data from SO. During data output, values appear on the falling edge of
SK. All bits are transferred with MSB first. Upon the last bit of communication, but prior to any following Low-to-High
transition of SK, CS should be raised High to end the transaction. The device then would enter Standby Mode if no
internal programming were underway.

1. X = Don’t care bit. For consistency, it is best to use “0”.
2. Some address bits are don’t care. See Table 5.
3. If the bits clocked-in for an op-code are invalid, SO remains high impedance, and upon CS going High there is no
affect. A valid op-code with an invalid number of bits clocked-in for address or data will cause an attempt to modify
the array or Status Register to be ignored.
WRITE ENABLE (WREN)
When Vcc is initially applied, the device powers up with
both status register and entire array in a write-disabled
state. Upon completion of Write Disable (WRDI),
Write Status Register (WRSR), or Write Data to Array
(WRITE), the device resets the WEN bit in the Status
Register to 0. Prior to any data modification, a WREN
instruction is necessary to set WEN to 1. (See Figure 2
for timing).
WRITE DISABLE (WRDI)
The device can be completely protected from modification by resetting WEN to 0 through the WRDI instruction. (See Figure 3 for timing).

READ STATUS REGISTER (RDSR)
The Read Status instruction tells the user the status of
Write Protect Enable, the Block Protection setting (see
Table 2), the Write Enable state, and the RDY status.
RDSR is the only instruction accepted when a write
cycle is underway. It is recommended that the status
of Write Enable and RDY be checked, especially prior
to an attempted modification of data. The 8 bits of the
Status Register can be repeatedly output on SO after
the initial Op-code. (See Figure 4 for timing).

IS25C32B-Automotive
WRITE STATUS REGISTER (WRSR)
This instruction lets the user choose a Block Protection
setting, and set or reset the WPEN bit. The values of
the other data bits incorporated into WRSR can be 0
or 1, and are not stored in the Status Register. WRSR
will be ignored unless both the following are true: a)
WEN = 1, due to a prior WREN instruction; and b)
Hardware Write Protection is not enabled. (See Table
4 for details). Except for the RDY status, the values in
the Status Register remain unchanged until the moment when the write cycle is complete and the register
is updated. Note: WPEN can be changed from 1 to 0
only if WP is already set High. Once completed, WEN
is reset for complete chip write protection. (See Figure
5 for timing).
READ DATA (READ)
This instruction begins with the op-code and the 16bit address, and causes the selected data byte to be
shifted out on SO. Following this first data byte, additional sequential bytes are output. If the data byte in the
highest address is output, the address rolls-over to the
lowest address in the array, and the output could loop
indefinitely. At any time, a rising CS signal completes
the operation. (See Figure 6 for timing).
WRITE DATA (WRITE)
The WRITE instruction begins with the op-code, the
16-bit address of the first byte to be modified, and the
first data byte. Additional data bytes may be written sequentially to the array after the first byte. Each WRITE
instruction can affect the contents of a 32 byte page,
but no more. The page begins at address XXXXXXXX
XXX00000, and ends with XXXXXXXX XXX11111. If
the last byte of the page is input, the address rolls over
to the beginning of the same page. More than 32 data
bytes can be input during the same instruction, but upon
a completed write cycle, a page would only contain the
last 32 bytes.
The region of the array defined within Block Protection
cannot be modified as long as that block configuration
is selected. The region of the array outside the Block
Protection can only be modified if Write Enable (WEN)
is set to 1. Therefore, it may be necessary that a WREN
instruction occur prior to WRITE. Hardware Write Protection has no affect on the memory array. Once Write
is completed, WEN is reset for complete chip write
protection. (See Figure 7 for timing).
