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.

CAT24WC32/64
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CAT24WC32/64 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. The transfer is controlled by the Master device
which generates the serial clock and all START and
STOP conditions for bus access. The CAT24WC32/64
operates as a Slave device. Both the Master device and
Slave device can operate as either transmitter or re-
ceiver, but the Master device controls which mode is
activated.
SDA:
Serial Data/Address
The bidirectional serial data/address pin is used to
transfer all 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 pins are hardwired or left unconnected (for hard-
ware compatibility with CAT24WC16). When hardwired,
up to eight CAT24WC32/64s may be addressed on a
single bus system (refer to Device Addressing ). When
the pins are left unconnected, the default values are
zeros.
WP:
Write Protect
This input, when tied to GND, allows write operations to
the entire memory. For CAT24WC32/64 when this pin
is tied to Vcc, the entire memory is write protected.
When left floating, memory is unprotected.

C BUS PROTOCOL
The features of the I
2
C bus protocol are defined as
follows:
(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 CAT24WC32/64 monitors
the SDA and SCL lines and will not respond until this
condition is met.
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.
compare to the hardwired input pins, A2, A1 and A0. 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 CAT24WC32/64 monitors the bus and
responds with an acknowledge (on the SDA line) when
its address matches the transmitted slave address. The
CAT24WC32/64 then performs a Read or Write opera-
tion 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 Acknowledg-
ing device pulls down the SDA line during the ninth clock
cycle, signaling that it received the 8 bits of data.
The CAT24WC32/64 responds with an acknowledge
after receiving a START condition and its slave address.
If the device has been selected along with a write
operation, it responds with an acknowledge after receiv-
ing each 8-bit byte.
When the CAT24WC32/64 begins a READ mode it
transmits 8 bits of data, releases the SDA line, and
monitors the line for an acknowledge. Once it receives
this acknowledge, the CAT24WC32/64 will continue to
transmit data. If no acknowledge is sent by the Master,
the device terminates data transmission and waits for a
STOP condition. The master must then issue a stop
condition to return the CAT24WC32/64 to the standby
power mode and place the device in a known state.
DEVICE ADDRESSING
The bus Master begins a transmission by sending a
START condition. The Master 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 (Fig. 5). The next three bits (A2, A1, A0) are the
device address bits; up to eight 32K/64K devices may
to be connected to the same bus. These bits must
