Internally Organized 128 x 8
The X24012 is a CMOS 1024 bit serial E PROM,
internally organized as one 128 x 8 bank. The X24012
features a serial interface and software protocol allowing
operation on a simple two wire bus. Three address
inputs allow up to eight devices to share a common two wire
bus.
Xicor E PROMs are designed and tested for applications
requiring extended endurance. Inherent data retention
is greater than 100 years. The X24012 is available in eight
pin DIP and SOIC packages.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
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

DEVICE OPERATION
The X24012 supports a bidirectional bus oriented proto- col.
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
X24012 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
reserved 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 X24012 continuously monitors the SDA and SCL
lines for the start condition and will not respond to
any command until this condition has been met.

X24012
The X24012 will respond with an acknowledge after
recognition of a start condition and its slave address. If
both the device and a write operation have been selected,
the X24012 will respond with an acknowledge
after the receipt of each subsequent eight bit word.
In the read mode the X24012 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 X24012
will continue to transmit data. If an acknowledge is not
detected, the X24012 will terminate further data trans-
missions. The master must then issue a stop condition to
return the X24012 to the standby power mode and
place the device into a known state
.
Stop Condition
All communications must be terminated by a stop condi-
tion, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL
is HIGH. The stop condition is also used by the X24012 to
place the device into 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 transfers. The transmitting device 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 address are the device type
identifier (see Figure 4). For the X24012 this is fixed as
Following the start condition, the X24012 monitors the SDA
bus comparing the slave address being transmit-
ted with its slave address (device type and state of A
0
, A
1
and A
2
inputs). Upon a correct compare the X24012
outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. Depending on the
state of the R/W bit, the X24012 will execute a read
or write operation.
WRITE OPERATIONS
Byte Write
For a write operation, the X24012 requires a second
address field. This address field is the word address,

comprised of eight bits, providing access to any one of the
128 words of memory. Note: the most significant bit
is a don’t care. Upon receipt of the word address the
X24012 responds with an acknowledge, and awaits the
next eight bits of data, again responding with an ac-
knowledge. The master then terminates the transfer by

ADDRESS

The next three significant bits address a particular device.
A system could have up to eight X24012 devices
on the bus (see Figure 10). The eight addresses are defined
by the state of the A

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 operation is selected.
generating a stop condition, at which time the X24012 begins
the internal write cycle to the nonvolatile memory.
While the internal write cycle is in progress the X24012
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.
