Description
The Microchip Technology Inc. 24LCS61/62 is a 1K/2K
bit Serial EEPROM developed for applications that
require many devices on the same bus but do not have
the I/O pins required to address each one individually.
These devices contain an 8 bit address register that is
set upon power-up and allows the connection of up to
255 devices on the same bus. When the process of
assigning ID values to each device is in progress, the
device will automatically handle bus arbitration if more
than one device is operating on the bus. In addition, an
external open drain output pin is available that can be
used to enable other circuitry associated with each
individual system. Low current design permits
operation with typical standby and active currents of
only 10
µA
and 1 mA respectively. The device has a
page write capability for up to 16 bytes of data. The
device is available in the standard 8-pin PDIP, SOIC
(150 mil), and TSSOP packages.

As a transmitter, the device must provide an internal minimum delay time to bridge the undefined region
(minimum 300 ns) of the falling edge of SCL to avoid unintended generation of Start or Stop conditions.
The combined T
SP
and V
HYS
specifications are due to Schmitt Trigger inputs which provide improved
noise spike suppression. This eliminates the need for a TI specification for standard operation.
This parameter is not tested but ensured by characterization. For endurance estimates in a specific

BUS CHARACTERISTICS
The following
bus protocol
has been defined:
• 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.
Accordingly, the following bus conditions have been
defined (Figure 3-1).
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 pull-up
resistor to V
CC
(typical 10 kΩ 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.
The SDA pin has Schmitt Trigger and filter circuits
which suppress noise spikes to assure proper device
operation even on a noisy bus
3.1
Bus not Busy (A)
Both data and clock lines remain high.
2.2
SCL (Serial Clock)
3.2
Start Data Transfer (B)
This input is used to synchronize the data transfer from
and to the device. The SCL pin has Schmitt Trigger and
filter circuits which suppress noise spikes to assure
proper device operation even on a noisy bus.
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.
2.3
EDS (External Device Select)
3.3
Stop Data Transfer (C)
The External Device Select (EDS) pin is an open drain
output that is controlled by using the OE bit in the
control byte. It can be used to enable other circuitry
when the device is selected. A pull-up resistor must be
added to this pin for proper operation. This pin should
not be pulled up to a voltage higher than Vcc+1V. See
Section 9.0 “External Device Select (EDS) Pin and
Output Enable (OE) Bit”
for more details.
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.
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 bit of data per
clock pulse.
Each data transfer is initiated with a Start condition and
terminated with a Stop condition. The number of data
bytes transferred between the Start and Stop
conditions is determined by the master device and is
theoretically unlimited, although only the last sixteen
will be stored when doing a write operation. When an
overwrite does occur it will replace data in a first in first
out fashion.

3.5
Acknowledge
Each receiving device, when addressed, is required to
generate an acknowledge after the reception of each
byte. The master device must generate an extra clock
pulse which is associated with this Acknowledge bit.
Note:
The 24LCS61/62 does not generate any
Acknowledge bits if an internal program-
ming cycle is in progress.
The device that acknowledges has to 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. 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 must leave the data line high to enable
the master to generate the Stop condition (Figure 3-2).
