words of 8 bits each when it is tied to ground. The
instruction set includes read, write, and write
enable/disable functions. The data out pin (DO)
indicates the status of the device during the
self-timed non-volatile programming cycle.
The self-timed write cycle includes an automatic
erase-before-write capability. Only when the chip is
in the WRITE ENABLE state and proper VCC
operation range is the WRITE instruction accepted
and thus to protect against inadvertent writes. Data
is written in 16 bits per write instruction into the
selected register. If Chip Select (CS) is brought
HIGH after initiation of the write cycle, the Data
Output (DO) pin will indicate the READY/BUSY
status of the chip.
The AM93LC56 is available in space-saving 8-lead
PDIP, 8-lead SOP and rotated 8-lead SOP package.

Functional Descriptions
Applications
The AM93LC56 is ideal for high volume applications
requiring low power and low density storage. This
device uses a low cost, space saving 8-pin package.
Typical applications include robotics, alarm devices,
electronic locks, meters and instrumentation settings
such as LAN cards, monitors and MODEM.
Endurance and Data Retention
The AM93LC56 is designed for applications
requiring up to 1M programming cycles (WRITE,
WRALL, EARSE and ERALL). It provides 40 years
of secure data retention.
Device Operation
The AM93LC56 is controlled by seven 10-bit
instructions. Instructions are clocked in (serially) on
the DI pin. Each instruction begins with a logical "1"
(the start bit). This is followed by the opcode (2 bits),
the address field (7 bits), and data, if appropriate.
The clock signal (SK) may be halted at any time and
the AM93LC56 will remain in its last state. This
allows full static flexibility and maximum power
conservation.
Read (READ)
The READ instruction is the only instruction that
outputs serial data on the DO pin. After the read
instruction and address have been decoded, data is
transferred from the selected memory register into a
8-bit or 16-bit serial shift register. (Please note that
one logical "0" bit precedes the actual 8-bit or 16-bit
output data string.) The output on DO changes
during the rising edge transitions of SK. (Shown in
Figure 3.)
Auto Increment Read Operations
Sequential read is possible, since the AM93LC56
has been designed to output a continuous stream of
memory content in response to a single read
operation instruction. To utilize this function, the
system asserts a read instruction specifying a start
location address. Once the 8-bit or 16-bit of the
Anachip Corp.

4/10
addressed word have been clocked out, the data in
consecutively higher address locations is output.
The address will wrap around continuously with CS
high until the chip select (CS) control pin is brought
low. This allows for single instruction data dumps to
be executed with a minimum of firmware overhead.
Write Enable (WEN)
Before any device programming (WRITE, WRALL,
ERASE, and ERAL) can be done, the WRITE
ENABLE (WEN) instruction must be executed first.
When Vcc is applied, this device powers up in the
WRITE DISABLE state. The device then remains in
a WRITE DISABLE state until a WEN instruction is
executed. Thereafter the device remains enabled
until a WDS instruction is executed or until Vcc is
removed. (NOTE: Neither the WEN nor the WDS
instruction has any effect on the READ instruction.)
(Shown in Figure 4.)
Write Disable (WDS)
The WRITE DISABLE (WDS) instruction disables all
programming capabilities. This protects the entire
part against accidental modification of data until a
WEN instruction is executed. (When Vcc is applied,
this part powers up in the WRITE DISABLE state.)
To protect data, a WDS instruction should be
executed upon completion of each programming
operation. (NOTE: Neither the WEN nor the WDS
instruction has any effect on the READ instruction.)
(Shown in Figure 5.)

Functional Description (Continued)
Write (WRITE)
The WRITE instruction includes 8-bit or 16-bit of
data to be written into the specified register. After
the last data bit has been applied to DI, and before
the next rising edge of SK, CS must be brought
LOW. The falling edge of CS initiates the self-timed
programming cycle.
After a minimum wait of 250ns (5V operation) from
the falling edge of CS (tcs), DO will indicate the
READY/BUSY status of the chip if CS is brought
HIGH. This means that logical "0" implies the
programming is still in progress while logical "1"
indicates the selected register has been written, and
the part is ready for another instruction. (See Figure
6)
Note:
The combination of CS HIGH, DI HIGH and the rising edge
of the SK clock, resets the READY/BUSY flag. Therefore, it is
important if you want to access the READY/BUSY flag, not to
reset it through this combination of control signals.

pin indicates the READY/BUSY status of the chip.
