DS2430A
256-Bit 1-Wire EEPROM
DS2430A
DESCRIPTION
The DS2430A 256-bit 1-Wire EEPROM identifies and stores relevant information about the product to
which it is associated. This lot or product specific information can be accessed with minimal interface, for
example a single port pin of a microcontroller. The DS2430A consists of a factory-lasered registration
number that includes a unique 48-bit serial number, an 8-bit CRC, and an 8-bit Family Code (14h) plus
256 bits of user-programmable EEPROM and a 64-bit one-time programmable application register. The
power to read and write the DS2430A is derived entirely from the 1-Wire
®
communication line. Data is
transferred serially via the 1-Wire protocol, which requires only a single data lead and a ground return.
The 48-bit serial number that is factory-lasered into each DS2430A provides a guaranteed unique identity
that allows for absolute traceability. The TO-92 and TSOC packages provide a compact enclosure that
allows standard assembly equipment to handle the device easily for attachment to printed circuit boards
or wiring. Typical applications include storage of calibration constants, board identification, and product
revision status.

Each DS2430A contains a unique ROM code that is 64 bits long. The first 8 bits are a 1-Wire family code
(14h). The next 48 bits are a unique serial number. The last 8 bits are a CRC of the first 56 bits. (Figure
3). The 1-Wire CRC is generated using a polynomial generator consisting of a shift register and XOR
gates as shown in Figure 4. The polynomial is X
8
+ X
5
+ X
4
+ 1. Additional information about the Dallas
1-Wire Cyclic Redundancy Check is available in
Application Note 27.
The shift register bits are
initialized to 0. Then starting with the least significant bit of the family code, one bit at a time is shifted
in. After the 8
th
bit of the family code has been entered, then the serial number is entered. After the 48
th
bit of the serial number has been entered, the shift register contains the CRC value. Shifting in the 8 bits
of CRC should return the shift register to all 0s.

The block diagram in Figure 1 shows the relationships between the major control and memory sections of
the DS2430A. The DS2430A has four main data components: 1) 64-bit lasered ROM, 2) 256-bit
EEPROM data memory with scratchpad, 3) 64-bit one-time programmable application register with
scratchpad and 4) 8-bit status memory. The hierarchical structure of the 1-Wire protocol is shown in
Figure 2. The bus master must first provide one of the four ROM Function Commands: 1) Read ROM, 2)
Match ROM, 3) Search ROM, 4) Skip ROM. The protocol required for these ROM Function Commands
is described in Figure 8. After a ROM Function Command is successfully executed, the memory
functions become accessible and the master can provide any one of the four memory function commands.
The protocol for these memory function commands is described in Figure 6. All data is read and written
least significant bit first.

DS2430A
MEMORY
The memory of the DS2430A consists of three separate sections, called data memory, application
register, and status register (Figure 5). The data memory and the application register each have its own
intermediate storage area called scratchpad that acts as a buffer when writing to the device. The data
memory can be read and written as often as desired. The application register, however, is one-time
programmable only. Once the application register is programmed, it is automatically write protected. The
status register indicates whether the application register is already locked or whether it is still available
for storing data. As long as the application register is unprogrammed, the status register reads FFh.
Copying data from the register scratchpad to the application register clears the 2 least significant bits of
the status register, yielding an FCh the next time one reads the status register.

Figure 5
WRITE SCRATCHPAD [0Fh]
After issuing the Write Scratchpad command, the master must first provide a 1-byte address, followed by
the data to be written to the scratchpad for the data memory. The DS2430A automatically increments the
address after every byte it receives. After having received a data byte for address 1Fh, the address counter
wraps around to 00h for the next byte and writing continues until the master sends a Reset Pulse.
READ SCRATCHPAD [AAh]
This command is used to verify data previously written to the scratchpad before it is copied into the final
storage EEPROM memory. After issuing the Read Scratchpad command, the master must provide the 1-
byte starting address from where data is to be read. The DS2430A automatically increments the address
after every byte read by the master. After the data at address 1Fh has been read, the address counter wraps
around to 00h for the next byte and reading continues until the master sends a Reset Pulse.
