Description
The AT24C02A/04A/08A provides 2048/4096/8192 bits of serial electrically erasable
and programmable read only memory (EEPROM) organized as 256/512/1024 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
AT24C02A/04A/08A is available in space saving 8-pin PDIP, 8-pin, 14-pin SOIC, and
8-pin TSSOP packages and is accessed via a 2-wire serial interface. In addition, the
entire family is available in 5.0V (4.5V to 5.5V), 2.7V (2.7V to 5.5V), 2.5V (2.5V to
5.5V) and 1.8V (1.8V to 5.5V) versions.

Pin Description
SERIAL CLOCK (SCL):
The SCL input is used to positive
edge clock data into each EEPROM device and negative
edge clock data out of each device.
SERIAL DATA (SDA):
The SDA pin is bidirectional for
serial data transfer. This pin is open-drain driven and may
be wire-ORed with any number of other open-drain or open
collector devices.
DEVICE/PAGE ADDRESSES (A2, A1, A0):
The A2, A1
and A0 pins are device address inputs that are hard wired
for the AT24C02A. As many as eight 2K devices may be
addressed on a single bus system (device addressing is
discussed in detail under the Device Addressing section).
The AT24C04A uses the A2 and A1 inputs for hard wire
addressing and a total of four 4K devices may be
addressed on a single bus system. The A0 pin is a no con-
nect.
The AT24C08A only uses the A2 input for hardwire
addr es si ng a nd a total of two 8K de vi ces ma y be
addressed on a single bus system. The A0 and A1 pins are
no connects.
WRITE PROTECT (WP):
The AT24C02A/04A/08A has a
Write Protect pin that provides hardware data protection.
The Write Protect pin allows normal read/write operations
when connected to ground (GND). When the Write Protect

pin is connected to V

, the write protection feature is
enabled and operates as shown in the following table.
Memory Organization
AT24C02A, 2K SERIAL EEPROM:
Internally organized
with 256 pages of 1-byte each, the 2K requires an 8 bit
data word address for random word addressing.
AT24C04A, 4K SERIAL EEPROM:
The 4K is internally
organized with 256 pages of 2-bytes each. Random word
addressing requires a 9 bit data word address.
AT24C08A, 8K SERIAL EEPROM:
The 8K is internally
organized with 4 blocks of 256 pages of 4-bytes each.
Random word addressing requires a 10 bit data word
address.

Device Operation
CLOCK and DATA TRANSITIONS:
The SDA pin is nor-
mally pulled high with an external device. Data on the SDA
pin may change only during SCL low time periods (refer to
Data Validity timing diagram). Data changes during SCL
high periods will indicate a start or stop condition as
defined below.
START CONDITION:
A high-to-low transition of SDA with
SCL high is a start condition which must precede any other
command (refer to Start and Stop Definition timing dia-
gram).
STOP CONDITION:
A low-to-high transition of SDA with
SCL high is a stop condition. After a read sequence, the
stop command will place the EEPROM in a standby power
mode (refer to Start and Stop Definition timing diagram).
ACKNOWLEDGE:
All addresses and data words are seri-
ally transmitted to and from the EEPROM in 8 bit words
.
The EEPROM sends a zero to acknowledge that it has
received each word. This happens during the ninth clock
cycle.
STANDBY MODE:
The AT24C02A/04A/08A features a low
power standby mode which is enabled: (a) upon power-up
and (b) after the receipt of the STOP bit and the completion
of any internal operations.
MEMORY RESET:
After an interruption in protocol, power
loss or system reset, any 2-wire part can be reset by follow-
ing these steps:(a) Clock up to 9 cycles, (b) look for SDA
high in each cycle while SCL is high and then (c) create a
start condition as SDA is high.
