AT25512
Description
The AT25512 provides 524,288 bits of serial electrically-erasable programmable
read only memory (EEPROM) organized as 65,536 words of 8 bits each. The device
is optimized for use in many industrial and commercial applications where low-power
and low-voltage operation are essential. The devices are available in space saving
8-lead JEDEC SOIC, 8-lead TSSOP and 8-lead SAP packages. In addition, the
entire family is available in 1.8V (1.8V to 3.6V) versions.
The AT25512 is enabled through the Chip Select pin (CS) and accessed via a 3-wire
interface consisting of Serial Data Input (SI), Serial Data Output (SO), and Serial
Clock (SCK). All programming cycles are completely self-timed, and no separate
Erase cycle is required before Write.

Block Write protection is enabled by programming the status register with top ¼, top ½
or entire array of write protection. Separate Program Enable and Program Disable
instructions are provided for additional data protection. Hardware data protection is pro-
vided via the WP pin to protect against inadvertent write attempts to the status register.
The HOLD pin may be used to suspend any serial communication without resetting the
serial sequence.

Serial Interface
Description
MASTER:
The device that generates the serial clock.
SLAVE:
Because the serial clock pin (SCK) is always an input, the AT25512 always
operates as a slave.
TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER:
The AT25512 has separate pins designated for data
transmission (SO) and reception (SI).
MSB:
The Most Significant Bit (MSB) is the first bit transmitted and received.
SERIAL OP-CODE:
After the device is selected with CS going low, the first byte will
be received. This byte contains the op-code that defines the operations to be performed.
INVALID OP-CODE:
If an invalid op-code is received, no data will be shifted into the
AT25512, and the serial output pin (SO) will remain in a high impedance state until the
falling edge of CS is detected again. This will reinitialize the serial communication.
CHIP SELECT:
The AT25512 is selected when the CS pin is low. When the device is
not selected, data will not be accepted via the SI pin, and the serial output pin (SO) will
remain in a high impedance state.
HOLD:
The HOLD pin is used in conjunction with the CS pin to select the AT25512.
When the device is selected and a serial sequence is underway, HOLD can be used to
pause the serial communication with the master device without resetting the serial
sequence. To pause, the HOLD pin must be brought low while the SCK pin is low. To
resume serial communication, the HOLD pin is brought high while the SCK pin is low
(SCK may still toggle during HOLD). Inputs to the SI pin will be ignored while the SO pin
is in the high impedance state.

WRITE PROTECT:
The write protect pin (WP) will allow normal read/write operations
when held high. When the WP pin is brought low and WPEN bit is “1”, all write opera-
tions to the status register are inhibited. WP going low while CS is still low will interrupt a
write to the status register. If the internal write cycle has already been initiated, WP
going low will have no effect on any write operation to the status register. The WP pin
function is blocked when the WPEN bit in the status register is “0”. This will allow the
user to install the AT25512 in a system with the WP pin tied to ground and still be able to
write to the status register. All WP pin functions are enabled when the WPEN bit is set to
“1”.
