The write cycle time is the time from a valid stop
condition of a write sequence to the end of the internal
program/erase cycle. During the write cycle, the bus
interface circuits are disabled, SDA is allowed to remain
high, and the device does not respond to its slave
address.

CAT24WC03/05
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CAT24WC03/05 supports the I
2
C Bus data trans-
mission protocol. This Inter-Integrated Circuit Bus proto-
col defines any device that sends data to the bus to be
a transmitter and any device receiving data to be a
receiver. Data transfer is controlled by the Master device
which generates the serial clock and all START and
STOP conditions for bus access. The CAT24WC03/05
operates as a Slave device. Both the Master and Slave
devices can operate as either transmitter or receiver, but
the Master device controls which mode is activated. A
maximum of 8 devices (24WC03) and 4 devices
(24WC05) may be connected to the bus as determined
by the device address inputs A0, A1, and A2.
clock all data transfers into or out of the device. This is
an input pin.
SDA:
Serial Data/Address
The CAT24WC03/05 bidirectional serial data/address
pin is used to transfer data into and out of the device. The
SDA pin is an open drain output and can be wire-ORed
with other open drain or open collector outputs.
A0, A1, A2:
Device Address Inputs
These inputs set device address when cascading mul-
tiple devices. When these pins are left floating the
default values are zeros.
A maximum of eight devices can be cascaded when
using the CAT24WC03. All three address pins are used
for CAT24WC03. If only one CAT24WC03 is addressed
on the bus, all three address pins (A0, A1, and A2) can
be left floating or connected to V
SS
.

CAT24WC03/05
A total of four devices can be addressed on a single bus
when using the CAT24WC05 device. Only A1 and A2
address pins are used with this device. The A0 address
pin is a no connect pin and can be tied to V
SS
or left
floating. If only one CAT24WC05 is being addressed on
the bus, the address pins (A1 and A2) can be left floating
or connected to V
SS
.
WP:
Write Protect
If the WP pin is tied to V
CC
the upper half of memory array
becomes Write Protected (READ only)(locations 80H to
FFH for the CAT24WC03 and locations 100H to 1FFH
for the CAT24WC05). When the WP pin is tied to V
SS
or
left floating normal read/write operations are allowed to
the device.
STOP Condition
A LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL is HIGH
determines the STOP condition. All operations must end
with a STOP condition.
DEVICE ADDRESSING
The bus Master begins a transmission by sending a
START condition. The Master then sends the address
of the particular slave device it is requesting. The four
most significant bits of the 8-bit slave address are fixed
as 1010 for the CAT24WC03/05 (see Fig. 5). The next
three significant bits (A2, A1, A0) are the device address
bits and define which device or which part of the device
the Master is accessing. Up to eight CAT24WC03 and
four CAT24WC05 can be individually addressed by the
system. The last bit of the slave address specifies
whether a Read or Write operation is to be performed.
When this bit is set to 1, a Read operation is selected,
and when set to 0, a Write operation is selected.
After the Master sends a START condition and the slave
address byte, the CAT24WC03/05 monitors the bus and
responds with an acknowledge (on the SDA line) when
its address matches the transmitted slave address. The
CAT24WC03/05 then performs a Read or Write operation
depending on the state of the R/W bit.
Acknowledge
After a successful data transfer, each receiving device is
required to generate an acknowledge. The
Acknowledging device pulls down the SDA line during
the ninth clock cycle, signaling that it received the 8 bits
of data.
I
2
C BUS PROTOCOL
The following defines the features of the I
2
C bus protocol:
(1) Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is
not busy.
(2) During a data transfer, the data line must remain
stable whenever the clock line is high. Any changes
in the data line while the clock line is high will be
interpreted as a START or STOP condition.
START Condition
The START Condition precedes all commands to the
device, and is defined as a HIGH to LOW transition of
SDA when SCL is HIGH. The CAT24WC03/05 monitor
the SDA and SCL lines and will not respond until this
condition is met.
