Description:
Microchip Technology Inc. supports the Serial Periph-
eral Interface (SPI) compatible serial bus architecture
with low-voltage serial Electrically Erasable PROMs
(EEPROM) that range in density from 1 Kbits up to 1
Mbits. Byte-level and page-level functions are sup-
ported, but the higher density 512 Kbit and 1 Mbit
devices also feature Sector and Chip erase functions
typically associated with Flash-based products.
The bus signals required are a clock input (SCK) plus
separate data in (SI) and data out (SO) lines. Access to
the device is controlled through a Chip Select (CS)
input.
Communication to the device can be paused via the
hold pin (HOLD). While the device is paused, transi-
tions on its inputs will be ignored, with the exception of
Chip Select, allowing the host to service higher priority
interrupts.
The entire series of SPI compatible devices are avail-
able in the standard 8-lead PDIP and SOIC pack-
ages, as well as the more advanced packages such
as the 8-lead TSSOP, MSOP, 2x3 DFN, 5x6 DFN and
6-lead SOT-23. All packages are RoHS compliant
with a Pb-free (Matte Tin) finish.

2.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
2.1 Principles of Operation
The 25-Series of Serial EEPROMs is designed to inter-
face directly with the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
port of many of today's popular microcontroller families,
including Microchip's PIC® microcontrollers. It may
also interface with microcontrollers that do not have a
built-in SPI port by using discrete I/O lines programmed
properly in firmware to match the SPI protocol.
This family of EEPROMs contains an 8-bit instruction
register. The device is accessed via the SI pin, with
data being clocked in on the rising edge of SCK. The
CS pin must be low and the HOLD pin must be high for
the entire operation.
Table 2-1 contains a list of the possible instruction
bytes and format for device operation. All instructions,
addresses and data are transferred MSB first, LSB last.
Data (SI) is sampled on the first rising edge of SCK
after CS goes low. If the clock line is shared with other
peripheral devices on the SPI bus, the user can assert
the HOLD input and place the EEPROM in ‘HOLD’
mode. After releasing the HOLD pin, operation will
resume from the point when the HOLD was asserted.
Block Diagram
TABLE 2-1: INSTRUCTION SET
2.2 Read Sequence
The device is selected by pulling CS low. The 8-bit
READ instruction is transmitted to the EEPROM
followed by the address. After the correct READ instruc-
tion and address are sent, the data stored in the mem-
ory at the selected address is shifted out on the SO pin.
The data stored in the memory at the next address can
be read sequentially by continuing to provide clock
pulses.
The internal Address Pointer is automatically incre-
mented to the next higher address after each byte of
data is shifted out. When the highest address is
reached, the address counter rolls over to address
00000h, allowing the read cycle to be continued indefi-
nitely. The read operation is terminated by raising the
CS pin. See Figure 2-1A/B/C for byte read.

2.3 Write Sequence
Prior to any attempt to write data to the EEPROM, the
write enable latch must be set by issuing the WREN
instruction (Figure 2-4). This is done by setting CS low
and then clocking out the proper instruction into the
EEPROM. After all eight bits of the instruction are
transmitted, CS must be brought high to set the write
enable latch. If the write operation is initiated immedi-
ately after the WREN instruction without CS being
brought high, the data will not be written to the array
because the write enable latch will not have been
properly set.
A write sequence includes an automatic, self timed
erase cycle. It is not required to erase any portion of the
memory prior to issuing a Write command.
Once the Write Enable Latch is set, the user may pro-
ceed by setting CS low, issuing a WRITE instruction,
followed by the address and then the data to be written.
Depending upon the density, a page of data that ranges
from 16 bytes to 256 bytes can be sent to the device
before a write cycle is necessary. The only restriction is
that all of the bytes must reside in the same page. See
Table 2-2 for information on page sizes.
In the 24XX512 and 24XX1024 devices, the entire
page is always refreshed regardless of whether the
entire page is written. For this reason, endurance for
these devices is specified per page.

Note: Page write operations are limited to writing
bytes within a single physical page,
regardless of the number of bytes actually
being written. Physical page boundaries
start at addresses that are integer multi-
ples of the page buffer size (or ‘page
size’), and end at addresses that are inte-
ger multiples of page size – 1. If a Page
Write command attempts to write across a
physical page boundary, the result is that
the data wraps around to the beginning of
the current page (overwriting data previ-
ously stored there), instead of being writ-
ten to the next page as might be expected.
It is therefore necessary for the application
software to prevent page write operations
that would attempt to cross a page
boundary.
2007 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS22040A-page 11
25AAXXXX/25LCXXXX
For the data to be actually written to the array, CS must
be brought high after the Least Significant bit (D0) of
the nth data byte has been clocked in. If CS is brought
high at any other time, the write operation will not be
completed. Refer to Figure 2-2A/B/C and Figure 2-3A/
B/C/D for more detailed illustrations on the byte write
sequence and the page write sequence, respectively.
While the write is in progress, the STATUS register
may be read to check the status of the WIP and WEL
bits (Figure 2-6). A read attempt of a memory array
location will not be possible during a write cycle. When
the write cycle is completed, the write enable latch is
reset.

The EEPROM contains a write enable latch. See
Table 2-4 for the Write-Protect Functionality Matrix.
This latch must be set before any write operation will be
completed internally. The WREN instruction will set the
latch, and the WRDI will reset the latch.
The following is a list of conditions under which the
write enable latch will be reset:

2.5 Read Status Register Instruction
(RDSR)
The Read Status Register instruction (RDSR) provides
access to the STATUS register. The STATUS register
may be read at any time, even during a write cycle. The
STATUS register is formatted as follows:
TABLE 2-3: STATUS REGISTER
The Write-In-Process (WIP) bit indicates whether the
EEPROM is busy with a write operation. When set to a
1’, a write is in progress, when set to a0’, no write is
in progress. This bit is read-only.
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status
of the write enable latch and is read-only. When set to
a ‘1’, the latch allows writes to the array, when set to a
0’, the latch prohibits writes to the array. The state of
this bit can always be updated via the WREN or WRDI
commands regardless of the state of write protection
on the STATUS register. These commands are shown
in Figure 2-4 and Figure 2-5.
The Block Protection (BP0 and BP1) bits indicate which
blocks are currently write-protected. These bits are set
by the user issuing the WRSR instruction. These bits are
nonvolatile and are shown in Table 2-4. See Figure 2-6
for the RDSR timing sequence.

2.6 Write Status Register Instruction
(WRSR)
The Write Status Register instruction (WRSR) allows the
user to write to the nonvolatile bits in the STATUS reg-
ister as shown in Table 2-3. The user is able to select
one of four levels of protection for the array by writing
to the appropriate bits in the STATUS register. The
array is divided up into four segments. The user has the
ability to write-protect none, one, two, or all four of the
segments of the array. The partitioning is controlled as
is shown in Table 2-4.
In EEPROM densities starting at 8 Kbits and higher, the
Write-Protect Enable (WPEN) bit is a nonvolatile bit
that is available as an enable bit for the WP pin. The
Write-Protect (WP) pin and the Write-Protect Enable
(WPEN) bit in the STATUS register control the pro-
grammable hardware write-protect feature. Hardware
write protection is enabled when WP pin is low and the
WPEN bit is high. Hardware write protection is disabled
when either the WP pin is high or the WPEN bit is low.
When the chip is hardware write-protected, only writes
to nonvolatile bits in the STATUS register are disabled.
See Table 2-6 for a matrix of functionality on the WPEN
bit. See Figure 2-7 for the WRSR timing sequence.

2.7 Data Protection
The following protection has been implemented to
prevent inadvertent writes to the array:
The write enable latch is reset on power-up
A write enable instruction must be issued to set
the write enable latch
After a byte write, page write or STATUS register
write, the write enable latch is reset
•CS
must be set high after the proper number of
clock cycles to start an internal write cycle
Access to the array during an internal write cycle
is ignored and programming is continued
2.8 Power-On State
The Serial EEPROM powers on in the following state:
The device is in low-power Standby mode (CS = 1)
The write enable latch is reset
SO is in high-impedance state
A high-to-low-level transition on CS is required to
enter active State

2.9 Page Erase
The Page Erase is a typical Flash function that has
been implemented only on the 512 Kbit and 1024 Kbit
Serial EEPROMs. This function is used to erase all bits
(FFh) inside a given page. A Write Enable (WREN)
instruction must be given prior to attempting a Page
Erase. This is done by setting CS low and then clocking
out the proper instruction into the EEPROM. After all
eight bits of the instruction are transmitted, the CS must
be brought high to set the write enable latch.
The Page Erase function is entered by driving CS low,
followed by the instruction code (Figure 2-8A/B) and
two or three address bytes. Any address inside the
page to be erased is a valid address.
CS must then be driven high after the last bit if the
address or the Page Erase will not execute. Once the
CS is driven high, the self-timed Page Erase cycle is
started. The WIP bit in the STATUS register can be
read to determine when the Page Erase cycle is
complete.
If a Page Erase function is given to an address that has
been protected by the Block Protect bits (BP0, BP1)
then the sequence will be aborted and no erase will
occur.

2.10 Sector Erase
The Sector Erase is a typical Flash function that has
been implemented only on the 512 Kbit and 1024 Kbit
Serial EEPROMs. This function is used to erase all bits
(FFh) inside a given sector. A Write Enable (WREN)
instruction must be given prior to attempting a Sector
Erase. This is done by setting CS low and then clocking
out the proper instruction into the EEPROM. After all
eight bits of the instruction are transmitted, the CS must
be brought high to set the write enable latch.
The Sector Erase function is entered by driving CS low,
followed by the instruction code (Figure 2-9A/B), and
two or three address bytes. Any address inside the
sector to be erased is a valid address.
CS must then be driven high after the last bit if the
address or the Sector Erase will not execute. Once the
CS is driven high, the self-timed Sector Erase cycle is
started. The WIP bit in the STATUS register can be
read to determine when the Sector Erase cycle is
complete.
If a SECTOR ERASE instruction is given to an address
that has been protected by the Block Protect bits (BP0,
BP1) then the sequence will be aborted and no erase
will occur.

2.11 Chip Erase
The Chip Erase function will erase all bits (FFh) in the
array. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be given
prior to executing a Chip Erase. This is done by setting
CS low and then clocking out the proper instruction into
the EEPROM. After all eight bits of the instruction are
transmitted, the CS must be brought high to set the
write enable latch. The Chip Erase function is entered
by driving the CS low, followed by the instruction code
(Figure 2-10) onto the SI line.
The CS pin must be driven high after the eighth bit of
the instruction code has been given or the Chip Erase
function will not be executed. Once the CS pin is driven
high, the self-timed Chip Erase function begins. While
the device is executing the Chip Erase function the WIP
bit in the STATUS register can be read to determine
when the Chip Erase function is complete. The Chip
Erase function is ignored if either of the Block Protect
bits (BP0, BP1) are not ‘0’, meaning ¼, ½, or all of the
array is protected.
FIGURE 2-10: CHIP ERASE SEQUENCE
2.12 Deep Power-Down Mode
Deep Power-Down mode is available on the high-density
25XX512 and 25XX1024 Serial EEPROMs and is the
lowest power consumption state for these devices. While
in the Deep Power-Down mode, these devices will not
respond to any of the Read or Write commands, and
therefore it can be used as an additional software write
protection feature.
The Deep Power-Down mode is entered by driving CS
low, followed by the instruction code (Figure 2-11) onto
the SI line, followed by driving CS high.
If the CS pin is not driven high after the eighth bit of the
instruction code has been given, the device will not
execute Deep power-down. Once the CS line is driven
high, there is a delay (TDP) before the current settles to
its lowest consumption.
All instructions given during Deep Power-Down mode
are ignored except the Read Electronic Signature
Command (RDID). The RDID command will release
the device from Deep power-down and outputs the
electronic signature on the SO pin, and then returns the
device to Standby mode after delay (TREL).

2.13 Release from Deep Power-Down
and Read Electronic Signature
Once a device has entered Deep Power-Down mode
all instructions are ignored except the Release from
Deep Power-down and Read Electronic Signature
command. This command can also be used when the
device is not in Deep Power-down, to read the
electronic signature out on the SO pin unless another
command is being executed such as Erase, Program
or Write STATUS register.
Release from Deep Power-Down mode and Read
Electronic Signature is entered by driving CS low,
followed by the RDID instruction code (Figure 2-12A/
B).Then a dummy address of 24 bits (A23-A0) for the
25XX1024 and 16 bits (A15-A0) for the 25XX512 can
be sent. After the last bit of the dummy address is
clocked in, the 8-bit Electronic signature is clocked out
on the SO pin. After the signature has been read out at
least once, the sequence can be terminated by driving
CS high. The device will then return to Standby mode
and will wait to be selected so it can be given new
instructions. If additional clock cycles are sent after the
electronic signature has been read once, it will continue
to output the signature on the SO line until the
sequence is terminated.
FIGURE 2-12A: RELEASE FROM DEEP POWER-DOWN AND READ ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE
(24-BITS)
FIGURE 2-12B: RELEASE FROM DEEP POWER-DOWN AND READ ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE
(16-BITS)
Driving CS high after the 8-bit RDID command, but
before the Electronic Signature has been transmitted,
will still ensure the device will be taken out of Deep
Power-Down mode. However, there is a delay TREL
that occurs before the device returns to Standby mode
(ICCS), as shown in Figure 2-13.

A low level on this pin selects the device. A high level
deselects the device and forces it into Standby mode.
However, a programming cycle which is already initi-
ated or in progress will be completed, regardless of the
CS input signal. If CS is brought high during a program
cycle, the device will go into Standby mode as soon as
the programming cycle is complete. When the device is
deselected, SO goes to the high-impedance state,
allowing multiple parts to share the same SPI bus. A
low-to-high transition on CS after a valid write
sequence initiates an internal write cycle. After power-
up, a low level on CS is required prior to any sequence
being initiated.
3.2 Serial Output (SO)
The SO pin is used to transfer data out of the
EEPROM. During a read cycle, data is shifted out on
this pin after the falling edge of the serial clock.
3.3 Write-Protect (WP)
The WP pin is a hardware write-protect input pin. In the
lower densities of 4 Kbits and below, a logic low on this
pin will reset the write enable latch and programming
will be inhibited. However, if a write cycle is already in
progress, WP going low will not change or disable the
write cycle. See Table 2-4 for the Write-Protect
Functionality Matrix.
In densities of 8 Kbits and higher the WP pin is used in
conjunction with the WPEN bit in the STATUS register
to prohibit writes to the nonvolatile bits in the STATUS
register. When WP is low and WPEN is high, writing to
the nonvolatile bits in the STATUS register are dis-
abled. All other operations will function normally. When
WP is set to a logic high, all functions, including writes
to the nonvolatile bits in the STATUS register will oper-
ate normally. If the WPEN bit is set, a logic low on the
WP pin during a STATUS register write sequence will
disable writing to the STATUS register. If an internal
write cycle has already begun, WP going low will have
no effect on the write in progress.
The WP pin function is blocked when the WPEN bit in
the STATUS register is low. This allows the user to
install the EEPROM in a system with WP pin grounded
and still be able to write to the STATUS register. The
WP pin functions will be enabled when the WPEN bit is
set to a logic high.
3.4 Serial Input (SI)
The SI pin is used to transfer data into the device. It
receives instructions, addresses and data. Data is
latched on the rising edge of the serial clock
3.5 Serial Clock (SCK)
The SCK is used to synchronize the communication
between a master and the EEPROM. Instructions,
addresses or data present on the SI pin are latched on
the rising edge of the clock input, while data on the SO
pin is updated after the falling edge of the clock input.
3.6 Hold (HOLD)
The HOLD pin is used to suspend transmission to the
EEPROM while in the middle of a serial sequence with-
out having to retransmit the entire sequence again. It
must be held high any time this function is not being
used. Once the device is selected and a serial
sequence is underway, the HOLD pin may be pulled
low to pause further serial communication without
resetting the serial sequence. The HOLD pin must be
brought low while SCK is low, otherwise the HOLD
function will not be invoked until the next SCK high-to-
low transition. The EEPROM must remain selected
during this sequence. The SI, SCK and SO pins are in
a high-impedance state during the time the device is
paused and transitions on these pins will be ignored. To
resume serial communication, HOLD must be brought
high while the SCK pin is low, otherwise serial commu-
nication will not resume. Pulling the HOLD line low at
any time will tri-state the SO line.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Microchip received ISO/TS-16949:2002 certification for its worldwide
headquarters, design and wafer fabrication facilities in Chandler and
Tempe, Arizona, Gresham, Oregon and Mountain View, California. The
Company’s quality system processes and procedures are for its PIC®
MCUs and dsPIC® DSCs, KEELOQ® code hopping devices, Serial
EEPROMs, microperipherals, nonvolatile memory and analog
products. In addition, Microchip’s quality system for the design and
manufacture of development systems is ISO 9001:2000 certified.
