Description
The AT93C46A provides 1024 bits of serial electrically erasable programmable read
only memory (EEPROM) organized as 64 words of 16 bits each. The devi ce is optimized for use in many ind ustrial and com mercial appli cations where lo w power and
low voltage operation are essential. The AT93C46A is available in space saving 8-pin
PDIP, 8-pin JEDEC, and 8-Pin TSSOP packages.
The AT93C46A is enabled through the Chip Selec t pin (CS), and ac cessed via a 3wire serial interface consisting of Data Input (DI), Data Output (DO), and Shift Clock
(SK). Upon receiving a READ instruction at DI, the address is decoded and the data is
clocked out serially on the data output pin DO. The WRITE cycl e is completely selftimed and no separate ERASE cycle is required before WRITE. The WRITE cycle is
only enabled when the part is in the ERASE/WRITE ENABLE state. When CS is
brought “high” followin g the initiation of a WRITE cy cle, the DO pin outputs the
READY/BUSY status of the part.
