2K (256 x 8)
Description
The AT34C02 provides 2048 bits of serial electrically erasable and programmable
read only memory (EEPROM) organized as 256 words of 8 bits each. The first-half of
the device incorporates a software write protection feature while hardware write pro-
tection for the entire array is available via an external pin as well. Once the software
write protection is enabled, by sending a special command to the device, it cannot be
reversed. The hardware write protection is controlled with the WP pin and can be used
to protect the entire array, whether or not the software write protection has been
enabled. This allows the user to protect none, first-half, or all of the array depending
on the application. The device is optimized for use in many industrial and commercial
applications where low power and low voltage operations are essential. The AT34C02
is available in space saving 8-pin PDIP, 8-pin JEDEC SOIC, and 8-pin TSSOP pack-
ages and is accessed via a 2-wire serial interface. In addition, it is available in 5.0V
(4.5V to 5.5V), 2.7V (2.7V 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 AT34C02. 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).
WRITE PROTECT (WP):
The AT34C02 has a Write Pro-
tect pin that provides hardware data protection. The Write
Protect pin allows normal read/write operations when con-

nected to ground (GND) or when left floating. When the
Write Protect pin is connected to V

, the write protection
feature is enabled for the entire array. The write protection
modes are shown in the following table.

Memory Organization
AT34C02, 2K Serial EEPROM:
The 2K is internally orga-
nized with 256 pages of 1 byte each. Random word
addressing requires a 8-bit data word address.
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 AT34C02 features a low power
standby mode which is enabled: (a) upon power-up or (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.
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

The write cycle time t

is the time from a valid stop condition of a write sequence to the end of the internal clear/write
cycle.
