Serial Clock (SCL)
The SCL input is used to clock all data into and out of the
device.
Serial Data (SDA)
SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into and out
of the device. It is an open drain output and may be
wire-ORed with any number of open drain or open
collector outputs.
An open drain output requires the use of a pull-up
resistor. For selecting typical values, refer to the Guide-
lines for Calculating Typical Values of Bus Pull-Up
Resistors graph.
Address (A
0
, A

, A

)
The address inputs are used to set the least significant
three bits of the seven bit slave address. These inputs
can be static or actively driven. If used statically they must
be tied to V
SS
or V
CC
as appropriate. If actively
driven, they must be driven to V
SS
or to V
CC
.
Write Control (WC)
The Write Control input controls the ability to write to the
device. When WC is LOW (tied to V
SS
) the X24C02 will
be enabled to perform write operations. When WC is HIGH
(tied to V
CC
) the internal high voltage circuitry will
be disabled and all writes will be disabled.

DEVICE OPERATION
The X24C02 supports a bidirectional bus oriented protocol
The protocol defines any device that sends data onto the
bus as a transmitter and the receiving device as the receiver.
The device controlling the transfer is a master and the
device being controlled is the slave. The master will always
initiate data transfers and provide the clock for both transmit
and receive operations. Therefore, the X24C02 will be
considered a slave in all applications.
Clock and Data Conventions
Data states on the SDA line can change only during SCL
LOW. SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are re-
served for indicating start and stop conditions. Refer to
Figures 1 and 2.
Start Condition
All commands are preceded by the start condition,
which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA when SCL is
HIGH. The X24C02 continuously monitors the SDA and SCL
lines for the start condition and will not respond to
any command until this condition has been met.

X24C02
The X24C02 will respond with an acknowledge after
recognition of a start condition and its slave address. If
Stop Condition
All communications must be terminated by a stop condition,
which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL is
HIGH. The stop condition is also used by the X24C02 to
place the device in the standby power mode after a read
sequence. A stop condition can only be issued after the
transmitting device has released the
bus.
Acknowledge
Acknowledge is a software convention used to indicate
successful data transfer. The transmitting device, either
both the device and a write operation have been
selected, the X24C02 will respond with an acknowledge
after the receipt of each subsequent eight bit word.
In the read mode the X24C02 will transmit eight bits of data,
release the SDA line and monitor the line for an
acknowledge. If an acknowledge is detected and no stop
condition is generated by the master, the X24C02
will continue to transmit data. If an acknowledge is not
detected, the X24C02 will terminate further data trans-
missions. The master must then issue a stop condition to
return the X24C02 to the standby power mode and
master or slave, will release the bus after transmitting
eight bits. During the ninth clock cycle the receiver will
pull the SDA line LOW to acknowledge that it received the
eight bits of data. Refer to Figure 3.

DEVICE ADDRESSING
Following a start condition the master must output the
address of the slave it is accessing. The most significant
four bits of the slave are the device type identifier
(see Figure 4). For the X24C02 this is fixed as 1010[B].
Following the start condition, the X24C02 monitors the
SDA bus comparing the slave address being transmitted
with its slave address (device type and state of A
0
, A
1
and
A
2
inputs). Upon a correct compare the X24C02 outputs an
acknowledge on the SDA line. Depending on the state of the
R/W bit, the X24C02 will execute a read or write
operation.

Byte Write
For a write operation, the X24C02 requires a second
address field. This address field is the word address,
comprised of eight bits, providing access to any one of the
256 words of memory. Upon receipt of the word
DEVICE
ADDRESS
3838 FHD F09
address the X24C02 responds with an acknowledge, and
awaits the next eight bits of data, again responding
with an acknowledge. The master then terminates the
transfer by generating a stop condition, at which time the
X24C02 begins the internal write cycle to the nonvolatile
memory. While the internal write cycle is in progress the
X24C02 inputs are disabled, and the device will not
respond to any requests from the master. Refer to
Figure 5 for the address, acknowledge and data transfer
sequence.
The next three significant bits address a particular device.
A system could have up to eight X24C02 devices
on the
bus (see Figure 10). The eight addresses are defined by the
state of the A
0
, A
1
and A
2
inputs.
The last bit of the slave address defines the operation to be
performed. When set to one a read operation is
selected, when set to zero a write operations is selected.
