2C
I uses a two-wire serial interface, comprising a
bi-directional data line and a clock line. The devices carry a built-in 4-bit Device Type Identifier code
(1010) in accordance with the I2C bus definition.
The device behaves as a slave in the I2C protocol,
with all memory operations synchronized by the
serial clock. Read and Write operations are initiated by a Start condition, generated by the bus mas-
4/25
ter. The Start condition is followed by a Device
Select Code and Read/Write bit (RW) (as described in Table 3.), terminated by an acknowledge bit.
When writing data to the memory, the device inserts an acknowledge bit during the 9th bit time,
following the bus master’s 8-bit transmission.
When data is read by the bus master, the bus
master acknowledges the receipt of the data byte
in the same way. Data transfers are terminated by
a Stop condition after an Ack for Write, and after a
NoAck for Read.
Power On Reset
In order to prevent inadvertent Write operations
during Power Up, a Power On Reset (POR) circuit
is implemented.
At Power Up, the device will not respond to any instruction until VCC has reached the POR threshold
voltage (this threshold is lower than the VCC minimum operating voltage defined in Table 8. and Table 9.). In the same way, as soon as VCC drops
from the normal operating voltage, below the POR
threshold voltage, all the operations are disabled
and the device will not respond to any instruction.
Prior to selecting and issuing instructions to the
memory, a valid and stable VCC voltage must be
applied. This voltage must remain stable and valid
until the end of the transmission of the instruction
and, for a Write instruction, until the completion of
the internal write cycle (tW).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
Serial Clock (SCL). This input signal is used to
strobe all data in and out of the device. In applications where this signal is used by slave devices to
synchronize the bus to a slower clock, the bus
master must have an open drain output, and a
pull-up resistor must be connected from Serial
Clock (SCL) to VCC. (Figure 4. indicates how the
value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated). In
most applications, though, this method of synchronization is not employed, and so the pull-up resistor is not necessary, provided that the bus master
has a push-pull (rather than open drain) output.
Serial Data (SDA). This bi-directional signal is
used to transfer data in or out of the device. It is an
open drain output that may be wire-OR’ed with
other open drain or open collector signals on the
bus. A pull up resistor must be connected from Serial Data (SDA) to VCC. (Figure 4. indicates how
the value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated).
Chip Enable (E0, E1, E2). These input signals
are used to set the value that is to be looked for on
the three least significant bits (b3, b2, b1) of the 7bit Device Select Code. These inputs must be tied
to VCC or VSS, to establish the Device Select
Code. When not connected (left floating), these inputs are read as Low (0,0,0).
Write Control (WC). This input signal is useful
for protecting the entire contents of the memory
from inadvertent write operations. Write operations are disabled to the entire memory array when
Write Control (WC) is driven High. When unconnected, the signal is internally read as VIL, and
Write operations are allowed.
When Write Control (WC) is driven High, Device
Select and Address bytes are acknowledged,
Data bytes are not acknowledged.

DEVICE OPERATION
The device supports the I2C protocol. This is summarized in Figure 5.. Any device that sends data
on to the bus is defined to be a transmitter, and
any device that reads the data to be a receiver.
The device that controls the data transfer is known
as the bus master, and the other as the slave device. A data transfer can only be initiated by the
bus master, which will also provide the serial clock
for synchronization. The M24xxx-B device is always a slave in all communication.
Start Condition
Start is identified by a falling edge of Serial Data
(SDA) while Serial Clock (SCL) is stable in the
High state. A Start condition must precede any
data transfer command. The device continuously
monitors (except during a Write cycle) Serial Data
(SDA) and Serial Clock (SCL) for a Start condition,
and will not respond unless one is given.
Stop Condition
Stop is identified by a rising edge of Serial Data
(SDA) while Serial Clock (SCL) is stable and driven High. A Stop condition terminates communication between the device and the bus master. A
Read command that is followed by NoAck can be
followed by a Stop condition to force the device
into the Stand-by mode. A Stop condition at the
end of a Write command triggers the internal EEPROM Write cycle.
Acknowledge Bit (ACK)
The acknowledge bit is used to indicate a successful byte transfer. The bus transmitter, whether it be
bus master or slave device, releases Serial Data
(SDA) after sending eight bits of data. During the
9th clock pulse period, the receiver pulls Serial
Data (SDA) Low to acknowledge the receipt of the
eight data bits.
Data Input
During data input, the device samples Serial Data
(SDA) on the rising edge of Serial Clock (SCL).
For correct device operation, Serial Data (SDA)
must be stable during the rising edge of Serial
Clock (SCL), and the Serial Data (SDA) signal
must change only when Serial Clock (SCL) is driven Low.
Memory Addressing
To start communication between the bus master
and the slave device, the bus master must initiate
a Start condition. Following this, the bus master
sends the Device Select Code, shown in Table 3.
(on Serial Data (SDA), most significant bit first).
The Device Select Code consists of a 4-bit Device
Type Identifier, and a 3-bit Chip Enable “Address”
(E2, E1, E0). To address the memory array, the 4bit Device Type Identifier is 1010b.
Up to eight memory devices can be connected on
a single I2C bus. Each one is given a unique 3-bit
code on the Chip Enable (E0, E1, E2) inputs.
When the Device Select Code is received, the device only responds if the Chip Enable Address is
the same as the value on the Chip Enable (E0, E1,
E2) inputs.
The 8th bit is the Read/Write bit (RW). This bit is
set to 1 for Read and 0 for Write operations.
If a match occurs on the Device Select code, the
corresponding device gives an acknowledgment
on Serial Data (SDA) during the 9th bit time. If the
device does not match the Device Select code, it
deselects itself from the bus, and goes into Standby mode.

Write Operations
Following a Start condition the bus master sends
a Device Select Code with the R/W bit (RW) reset
to 0. The device acknowledges this, as shown in
Figure 7., and waits for two address bytes. The device responds to each address byte with an acknowledge bit, and then waits for the data byte.
Writing to the memory may be inhibited if Write
Control (WC) is driven High. Any Write instruction
with Write Control (WC) driven High (during a period of time from the Start condition until the end of
the two address bytes) will not modify the memory
contents, and the accompanying data bytes are
not acknowledged, as shown in Figure 6..
Each data byte in the memory has a 16-bit (two
byte wide) address. The Most Significant Byte (Table 4.) is sent first, followed by the Least Significant Byte (Table 5.). Bits b15 to b0 form the
address of the byte in memory.
8/25
When the bus master generates a Stop condition
immediately after the Ack bit (in the “10th bit” time
slot), either at the end of a Byte Write or a Page
Write, the internal memory Write cycle is triggered.
A Stop condition at any other time slot does not
trigger the internal Write cycle.
After the Stop condition, the delay tW, and the successful completion of a Write operation, the device’s internal address counter is incremented
automatically, to point to the next byte address after the last one that was modified.
During the internal Write cycle, Serial Data (SDA)
is disabled internally, and the device does not respond to any requests.
Byte Write
After the Device Select code and the address
bytes, the bus master sends one data byte. If the
addressed location is Write-protected, by Write
Control (WC) being driven High, the device replies
M24128-BW, M24128-BR, M24256-BW, M24256-BR
data starts to become overwritten in an implementation dependent way.
The bus master sends from 1 to 64 bytes of data,
each of which is acknowledged by the device if
Write Control (WC) is Low. If Write Control (WC) is
High, the contents of the addressed memory location are not modified, and each data byte is followed by a NoAck. After each byte is transferred,
the internal byte address counter (the 6 least significant address bits only) is incremented. The
transfer is terminated by the bus master generating a Stop condition.
with NoAck, and the location is not modified. If, instead, the addressed location is not Write-protected, the device replies with Ack. The bus master
terminates the transfer by generating a Stop condition, as shown in Figure 7..
Page Write
The Page Write mode allows up to 64 bytes to be
written in a single Write cycle, provided that they
are all located in the same ’row’ in the memory:
that is, the most significant memory address bits,
b15-b6, are the same. If more bytes are sent than
will fit up to the end of the row, a condition known
as ‘roll-over’ occurs. This should be avoided, as

Minimizing System Delays by Polling On ACK
During the internal Write cycle, the device disconnects itself from the bus, and writes a copy of the
data from its internal latches to the memory cells.
The maximum Write time (tw) is shown in Table
14. and Table 15., but the typical time is shorter.
To make use of this, a polling sequence can be
used by the bus master.
The sequence, as shown in Figure 8., is:
10/25
START
Condition
–
–
–
AI01847C
Initial condition: a Write cycle is in progress.
Step 1: the bus master issues a Start condition
followed by a Device Select Code (the first
byte of the new instruction).
Step 2: if the device is busy with the internal
Write cycle, no Ack will be returned and the
bus master goes back to Step 1. If the device
has terminated the internal Write cycle, it
responds with an Ack, indicating that the
device is ready to receive the second part of
the instruction (the first byte of this instruction
having been sent during Step 1).

Note: 1. The seven most significant bits of the Device Select Code of a Random Read (in the 1st and 4th bytes) must be identical.
Read Operations
Read operations are performed independently of
the state of the Write Control (WC) signal.
After the successful completion of a Read operation, the device’s internal address counter is incremented by one, to point to the next byte address.
Random Address Read
A dummy Write is first performed to load the address into this address counter (as shown in Figure 9.) but without sending a Stop condition. Then,
the bus master sends another Start condition, and
repeats the Device Select Code, with the RW bit
set to 1. The device acknowledges this, and out-
puts the contents of the addressed byte. The bus
master must not acknowledge the byte, and terminates the transfer with a Stop condition.
Current Address Read
For the Current Address Read operation, following
a Start condition, the bus master only sends a Device Select Code with the R/W bit set to 1. The device acknowledges this, and outputs the byte
addressed by the internal address counter. The
counter is then incremented. The bus master terminates the transfer with a Stop condition, as
shown in Figure 9., without acknowledging the
byte.
11/25
M24128-BW, M24128-BR, M24256-BW, M24256-BR
Sequential Read
This operation can be used after a Current Address Read or a Random Address Read. The bus
master does acknowledge the data byte output,
and sends additional clock pulses so that the device continues to output the next byte in sequence.
To terminate the stream of bytes, the bus master
must not acknowledge the last byte, and must
generate a Stop condition, as shown in Figure 9..
The output data comes from consecutive addresses, with the internal address counter automatically
incremented after each byte output. After the last
memory address, the address counter ‘rolls-over’,
and the device continues to output data from
memory address 00h.
12/25
Acknowledge in Read Mode
For all Read commands, the device waits, after
each byte read, for an acknowledgment during the
9th bit time. If the bus master does not drive Serial
Data (SDA) Low during this time, the device terminates the data transfer and switches to its Standby mode.
INITIAL DELIVERY STATE
The device is delivered with all the memory array
bits set to 1 (each byte contains FFh).
