N93C66
4 Kb Microwire Serial CMOS
EEPROM
Description
The N93C66 is a 4 kb CMOS Serial EEPROM device which is
organized as either 256 registers of 16 bits (ORG pin at V
CC
) or 512
registers of 8 bits (ORG pin at GND). Each register can be written (or
read) serially by using the DI (or DO) pin. The device features
sequential read and self−timed internal write with auto−clear. On−chip
Power−On Reset circuitry protects the internal logic against powering
up in the wrong state.

Device Operation
The N93C66 is a 4096−bit nonvolatile memory intended
for use with industry standard microprocessors. The
N93C66 can be organized as either registers of 16 bits or 8
bits. When organized as X16, seven 11−bit instructions
control the reading, writing and erase operations of the
device. When organized as X8, seven 12−bit instructions
control the reading, writing and erase operations of the
device. The device operates on a single power supply and
will generate on chip, the high voltage required during any
write operation.
Instructions, addresses, and write data are clocked into the
DI pin on the rising edge of the clock (SK). The DO pin is
normally in a high impedance state except when reading data
from the device, or when checking the ready/busy status
after a write operation. The serial communication protocol
follows the timing shown in Figure 2.

The ready/busy status can be determined after the start of
internal write cycle by selecting the device (CS high) and
polling the DO pin; DO low indicates that the write
operation is not completed, while DO high indicates that the
device is ready for the next instruction. If necessary, the DO
pin may be placed back into a high impedance state during
chip select by shifting a dummy “1” into the DI pin. The DO
pin will enter the high impedance state on the rising edge of
the clock (SK). Placing the DO pin into the high impedance
state is recommended in applications where the DI pin and
the DO pin are to be tied together to form a common DI/O
pin.
The format for all instructions sent to the device is a
logical “1” start bit, a 2−bit (or 4−bit) opcode, 8−bit address
(an additional bit when organized X8) and for write
operations a 16−bit data field (8−bit for X8 organizations).
The instruction format is shown in Instruction Set table.

N93C66
Read
Upon receiving a READ command and an address
(clocked into the DI pin), the DO pin of the N93C66 will
come out of the high impedance state and, after sending an
initial dummy zero bit, will begin shifting out the data
addressed (MSB first). The output data bits will toggle on
the rising edge of the SK clock and are stable after the
specified time delay (t
PD0
or t
PD1
).
For the N93C66 after the initial data word has been shifted
out and CS remains asserted with the SK clock continuing
to toggle, the device will automatically increment to the next
address and shift out the next data word in a sequential
READ mode. As long as CS is continuously asserted and SK
continues to toggle, the device will keep incrementing to the
next address automatically until it reaches to the end of the
address space, then loops back to address 0. In the sequential
READ mode, only the initial data word is preceeded by a

dummy zero bit. All subsequent data words will follow
without a dummy zero bit. The READ instruction timing is
illustrated in Figure 3.
Erase/Write Enable and Disable
The device powers up in the write disable state. Any
writing after power−up or after an EWDS (erase/write
disable) instruction must first be preceded by the EWEN
(erase/write enable) instruction. Once the write instruction
is enabled, it will remain enabled until power to the device
is removed, or the EWDS instruction is sent. The EWDS
instruction can be used to disable all N93C66 write and erase
instructions, and will prevent any accidental writing or
clearing of the device. Data can be read normally from the
device regardless of the write enable/disable status. The
EWEN and EWDS instructions timing is shown in Figure 4.
