DESCRIPTION
The FT24C32A/64A series are 32768/65536 bits of serial Electrical Erasable and Programmable Read Only Memory,
commonly known as EEPROM. They are organized as 4096/8192 words of 8 bits (one byte) each. The devices are
fabricated with proprietary advanced CMOS process for low power and low voltage applications. These devices are
available in standard 8-lead DIP, 8-lead SOP, 8-lead TSSOP, 8-lead MSOP, 8-lead DFN, and 5-lead SOT23 packages.
A standard 2-wire serial interface is used to address all read and write functions. Our extended V

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
(A) SERIAL CLOCK (SCL)
The rising edge of this SCL input is to latch data into the EEPROM device while the falling edge of this clock is to
clock data out of the EEPROM device.
(B) DEVICE / CHIP SELECT ADDRESSES (A2, A1, A0)
These are the chip select input signals for the serial EEPROM devices. Typically, these signals are hardwired to
either V
IH
or V
IL
. If left unconnected, they are internally recognized as V
IL
.
(C) SERIAL DATA LINE (SDA)
SDA data line is a bi-directional signal for the serial devices. It is an open drain output signal and can be wired-
OR with other open-drain output devices.
(D) WRITE PROTECT (WP)
The FT24C32A/64A devices have a WP pin to protect the whole EEPROM array from programming.
Programming operations are allowed if WP pin is left un-connected or input to V
IL
. Conversely all programming
functions are disabled if WP pin is connected to V
IH
or V
CC
. Read operations is not affected by the WP pin’s input
level.
MEMORY ORGANIZATION
The FT24C32A/64A devices have 128/256 pages respectively. Since each page has 32 bytes, random word addressing
to FT24C32A/64A will require 12/13 bits data word addresses respectively.
DEVICE OPERATION
(A) SERIAL CLOCK AND DATA TRANSITIONS
The SDA pin is typically pulled to high by an external resistor. Data is allowed to change only when Serial clock
SCL is at V
IL
. Any SDA signal transition may interpret as either a START or STOP condition as described below.
(B) START CONDITION
With SCL
≥V
IH
, a SDA transition from high to low is interpreted as a START condition. All valid commands
must begin with a START condition.
(C) STOP CONDITION
With SCL
≥V
IH
, a SDA transition from low to high is interpreted as a STOP condition. All valid read or write
commands end with a STOP condition. The device goes into the STANDBY mode if it is after a read command.
A STOP condition after page or byte write command will trigger the chip into the STANDBY mode after the self-
timed internal programming finish (see Figure 1).
(D) ACKNOWLEDGE
The 2-wire protocol transmits address and data to and from the EEPROM in 8 bit words. The EEPROM
acknowledges the data or address by outputting a "0" after receiving each word. The ACKNOWLEDGE signal
occurs on the 9
th
serial clock after each word.

(E) STANDBY MODE
The EEPROM goes into low power STANDBY mode after a fresh power up, after receiving a STOP bit in read
mode, or after completing a self-time internal programming operation.

DEVICE ADDRESSING
The 2-wire serial bus protocol mandates an 8 bits device address word after a START bit condition to invoke a valid
read or write command. The first four most significant bits of the device address must be 1010, which is common to all
serial EEPROM devices. The next three bits are device address bits. These three device address bits (5
th
, 6
th
and 7
th
) are
to match with the external chip select/address pin states. If a match is made, the EEPROM device outputs an
ACKNOWLEDGE signal after the 8
th
read/write bit, otherwise the chip will go into STANDBY mode. However,
matching may not be needed for some or all device address bits (5
th
, 6
th
and 7
th
) as noted below. The last or 8th bit is a
read/write command bit. If the 8th bit is at V
IH
then the chip goes into read mode. If a “0” is detected, the device enters
programming mode.

WRITE OPERATIONS
(A) BYTE WRITE
A write operation requires two 8-bit data word address following the device address word and ACKNOWLEDGE
signal. Upon receipt of this address, the EEPROM will respond with a “0” and then clock in the first 8-bit data
word. Following receipt of the 8-bit data word, the EEPROM will again output a “0”. The addressing device, such
as a microcontroller, must terminate the write sequence with a STOP condition. At this time the EEPROM enters
into an internally-timed write cycle state. All inputs are disabled during this write cycle and the EEPROM will not
respond until the writing is completed (figure 3).
(B) PAGE WRITE
The 32K/64K EEPROM are capable of 32-byte page write.
A page write is initiated the same way as a byte write, but the microcontroller does not send a STOP condition
after the first data word is clocked in. The microcontroller can transmit up to 31 more data words after the
EEPROM acknowledges receipt of the first data word. The EEPROM will respond with a “0” after each data word
is received. The microcontroller must terminate the page write sequence with a STOP condition (see Figure 4).
The lower five bits of the data word address are internally incremented following the receipt of each data word.
The higher data word address bits are not incremented, retaining the memory page row location. If more than 32
data words are transmitted to the EEPROM, the data word address will “roll over” and the previous data will be
overwritten.
(C) ACKNOWLEDGE POLLING
ACKNOWLEDGE polling may be used to poll the programming status during a self-timed internal programming.
By issuing a valid read or write address command, the EEPROM will not acknowledge at the 9
th
clock cycle if the
device is still in the self-timed programming mode. However, if the programming completes and the chip has
returned to the STANDBY mode, the device will return a valid ACKNOWLEDGE signal at the 9
th
clock cycle.
READ OPERATIONS
The read command is similar to the write command except the 8
th
read/write bit in address word is set to “1”. The three
read operation modes are described as follows:
(A) CURRENT ADDRESS READ
The EEPROM internal address word counter maintains the last read or write address plus one if the power supply
to the device has not been cut off. To initiate a current address read operation, the micro-controller issues a
START bit and a valid device address word with the read/write bit (8
th
) set to “1”. The EEPROM will response
with an ACKNOWLEDGE signal on the 9
th
serial clock cycle. An 8-bit data word will then be serially clocked out.
The internal address word counter will then automatically increase by one. For current address read the micro-
controller will not issue an ACKNOWLEDGE signal on the 18
th
clock cycle. The micro-controller issues a valid
STOP bit after the 18
th
clock cycle to terminate the read operation. The device then returns to STANDBY mode
(see Figure 5).
(B) SEQUENTIAL READ
The sequential read is very similar to current address read. The micro-controller issues a START bit and a valid
device address word with read/write bit (8
th
) set to “1”. The EEPROM will response with an ACKNOWLEDGE
signal on the 9
th
serial clock cycle. An 8-bit data word will then be serially clocked out. Meanwhile the internally
address word counter will then automatically increase by one.
