DESCRIPTION
The X40010/11/14/15 combines power-on reset control, watchdog timer, supply voltage supervision, and
secondary voltage supervision, in one package. This
combination lowers system cost, reduces board space
requirements, and increases reliability.
Applying voltage to V
activates the power on reset
CC
circuit which holds RESET/RESET active for a period of
time. This allows the power supply and system oscillator
to stabilize before the processor can e x ecute code.
Low V

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Power On Reset
Application of power to the X40010/11/14/15 activates a
Power On Reset Circuit that pulls the RESET/RESET
pins active. This signal pro vides sev eral benefits.
– It prevents the system microprocessor from starting to
operate with insufficient voltage.
– It prevents the processor from operating prior to stabili-
zation of the oscillator.
– It allows time for an FPGA to download its configur ation
prior to initialization of the circuit.

WATCHDOG TIMER
The Watchdog Timer circuit monitors the microprocessor activity by monitoring the SDA and SCL pins. The
microprocessor must toggle the SDA pin HIGH to LOW
periodically, while SCL also toggles from HIGH to LOW
(this is a start bit) followed by a stop condition prior to
the expiration of the watchdog time out period to prevent a WDO signal going active. The state of two nonvolatile control bits in the Status Register determines
the watchdog timer period. The microprocessor can
change these watchdog bits by writing to the X40010/
11/14/15 control register (also refer to page 19).

The Control Register is accessed with a special preamble in the slave byte (1011) and is located at
address 1FFh. It can only be modified by performing a
byte write operation directly to the address of the register and only one data byte is allowed for each register
write operation. Prior to writing to the Control Register,
the WEL and RWEL bits must be set using a two step
process, with the whole sequence requiring 3 steps.
See "Writing to the Control Registers" on page 7.
The user must issue a stop, after sending this byte to
the register, to initiate the nonvolatile cycle that stores
WD1, WD0, PUP1, PUP0, BP1, and BP0. The X40010/
11/14/15 will not acknowledge any data bytes written
after the first byte is entered.
The state of the Control Register can be read at any
time by performing a random read at address 01Fh,
using the special preamble. Only one byte is read by
each register read operation. The master should supply a stop condition to be consistent with the bus protocol, but a stop is not required to end this operation.

WEL: Write Enable Latch (Volatile)
The WEL bit controls the access to the memory and to

While the WEL bit is LOW, writes to any address,
including any control registers will be ignored (no
acknowledge will be issued after the Data Byte). The

again. Writes to the WEL bit do not cause a high voltage write cycle, so the device is ready for the next
operation immediately after the stop condition.

WD1, WD0: Watchdog Timer Bits (Nonvolatile)
The bits WD1 and WD0 control the period of the
Watchdog Timer. The options are shown below.
Changing any of the nonvolatile bits of the control and
trickle registers requires the following steps:
– Write a 02H to the Control Register to set the Write
Enable Latch (WEL). This is a volatile operation, so
there is no delay after the write. (Oper ation preceded
by a start and ended with a stop).
– Write a 06H to the Control Register to set the
Register Write Enable Latch (RWEL) and the WEL
bit. This is also a volatile cycle. The zeros in the data
byte are required. (Operation proceeded by a start
and ended with a stop).
– Write a one byte value to the Control Register that
has all the control bits set to the desired state. The
Control register can be represented as qxys 001r in
binary, where xy are the WD bits, s isthe BP bit and
qr are the power up bits. This operation proceeded
by a start and ended with a stop bit. Since this is a
nonvolatile write cycle it will take up to 10ms to
complete. The RWEL bit is reset b y this cycle and the
sequence must be repeated to change the nonvolatile bits again. If bit 2 is set to ‘1’ in this third step
(qxys 011r) then the RWEL bit is set, but the WD1,
WD0, PUP1, PUP0, and BP bits remain unchanged.
Writing a second byte to the control register is not
allowed. Doing so aborts the write operation and
returns a NACK.
– A read operation occurring between any of the
previous operations will not interrupt the register
write operation.
– The RWEL bit cannot be reset without writing to the
nonvolatile control bits in the control register, power
cycling the device or attempting a write to a write
protected block.
To illustrate, a sequence of writes to the device consisting of [02H, 06H, 02H] will reset all of the nonvolatile
bits in the Control Register to 0. A sequence of [02H,
06H, 06H] will leave the nonvolatile bits unchanged
and the RWEL bit remains set.

The Fault Detection Register (FDR) provides the user
the status of what causes the system reset active. The
Manual Reset Fail, Watchdog Timer Fail and three Low

The FDR is accessed with a special preamble in the
slave byte (1011) and is located at address 0FFh. It
can only be modified by performing a byte write

only one data byte is allowed for each register write
operation.
There is no need to set the WEL or RWEL in the
control register to access this fault detection register .

At power-up, the Fault Detection Register is defaulted
to all “0”. The system needs to initialize this register to
all “1” before the actual monitoring take place. In the
event of any one of the monitored sources failed. The
corresponding bits in the register will change from a “1”
to a “0” to indicate the failure. At this moment, the system should perform a read to the register and noted
the cause of the reset. After reading the register the
system should reset the register back to all “1” again.
The state of the Fault Detection Register can be read

SERIAL INTERFACE
Interface Conventions
The device supports a bidirectional bus oriented protocol. 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
called the master and the device being controlled is
called the slave. The master always initiates data
transfers, and provides the clock for both transmit and
receive operations. Therefore, the devices in this family
operate as slaves in all applications .
Serial Clock and Data
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. See
Figure 6.
Serial Start Condition
All commands are preceded by the start condition,
which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SD A when SCL is
HIGH. The device continuously monitors the SDA and
SCL lines for the start condition and will not respond to
any command until this condition has been met. See
Figure 6.
Serial Stop Condition
All communications must be terminated by a stop condition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when
SCL is HIGH. The stop condition is also used 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 . See Figure 6.

Figure 7. Valid Start and Stop Conditions
SCL
SDA
StartStop
Serial Acknowledge
Acknowledge is a software convention used to indicate
successful data transfer. The transmitting device, either
master or slave, 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. See Figure 8.
The device will respond with an acknowledge after recognition of a start condition and if the correct Device
Identifier and Select bits are contained in the Slave
Address Byte. If a write operation is selected, the
device will respond with an acknowledge after the
receipt of each subsequent eight bit word. The device
will acknowledge all incoming data and address bytes,
except for the Slave Address Byte when the Device
Identifier and/or Select bits are incorrect.
In the read mode, the device will transmit eight bits of
data, release the SDA line, then monitor the line for an
acknowledge. If an acknowledge is detected and no
stop condition is generated by the master, the device
will continue to transmit data. The device will terminate
further data transmissions if an acknowledge is not
detected. The master must then issue a stop condition
to return the device to Standby mode and place the
device into a known state.
Serial Write Operations
Byte Write
For a write operation, the device requires the Slave
Address Byte and a Word Address Byte. This gives the
master access to any one of the words in the array.
After receipt of the Word Address Byte, the device
responds with an acknowledge, and awaits the next
eight bits of data. After receiving the 8 bits of the Data
Byte, the device again responds with an acknowledge.
The master then terminates the transfer by generating
a stop condition, at which time the device begins the
internal write cycle to the nonvolatile memory. During
this internal write cycle, the device inputs are disabled, so
the device will not respond to any requests from the master. The SDA output is at high impedance. See Figure 9.
A write to a protected block of memory will suppress
the acknowledge bit.

Read Operation
Prior to issuing the Slave Address Byte with the R/W
bit
set to one, the master must first perform a “dummy” write
operation. The master issues the start condition and the
Slave Address Byte, receives an acknowledge, then
issues the Word Address Bytes. After acknowledging
receipts of the Word Address Bytes, the master immedi-

Stops and Write Modes
Stop conditions that terminate write operations must be
sent by the master after sending at least 1 full data byte
plus the subsequent ACK signal. If a stop is issued in
the middle of a data byte, or before 1 full data byte plus
its associated ACK is sent, then the device will reset
itself without performing the write. The contents of the
array will not be eff ected.
Acknowledge Polling
The disabling of the inputs during high voltage cycles
can be used to take advantage of the typical 5ms write
cycle time. Once the stop condition is issued to indicate
the end of the master’s byte load operation, the device
initiates the internal high voltage cycle. Acknowledge
polling can be initiated immediately. To do this, the
master issues a start condition followed by the Slave
Address Byte for a write or read operation. If the device
is still busy with the high voltage cycle then no ACK will
be returned. If the device has completed the write operation, an ACK will be returned and the host can then
proceed with the read or write operation. See Figure
12.
ately issues another start condition and the Slave
Address Byte with the R/W bit set to one. This is followed
by an acknowledge from the device and then by the eight
bit word. The master terminates the read operation by not
responding with an acknowledge and then issuing a stop
condition. See Figure 12 for the address, acknowledge,
and data transfer sequence.

Serial Read Operations
Read operations are initiated in the same manner as
write operations with the exception that the R/W bit of
the Slave Address Byte is set to one. There are three
basic read operations: Current Address Reads, Random Reads, and Sequential Reads.
Current Address Read
Internally the device contains an address counter that
maintains the address of the last word read incremented by one. Therefore, if the last read was to
address n, the next read operation would access data
from address n+1. On power up, the address of the
address counter is undefined, requiring a read or write
operation for initialization.
Upon receipt of the Slave Address Byte with the R/W
bit set to one, the device issues an acknowledge and
then transmits the eight bits of the Data Byte. The master terminates the read operation when it does not
respond with an acknowledge during the ninth clock
and then issues a stop condition. See Figure 13 for the
address, acknowledge, and data tr ansf er sequence.

issues the start condition and the Slave Address Byte,
receives an acknowledge, then issues the Word Address
Bytes. After acknowledging receipts of the Word Address
Bytes, the master immediately issues another start condition and the Slave Address Byte with the R/W
bit set to
one. This is followed by an acknowledge from the device
and then by the eight bit word. The master terminates the
read operation by not responding with an acknowledge
and then issuing a stop condition. See Figure 14 for the
address, acknowledge, and data tr ansfer sequence .
A similar operation called “Set Current Address” where
the device will perform this operation if a stop is issued
instead of the second start shown in Figure 13. The
device will go into standby mode after the stop and all
bus activity will be ignored until a start is detected. This
operation loads the new address into the address
counter. The next Current Address Read operation will
read from the newly loaded address. This operation
could be useful if the master knows the next address it
needs to read, but is not ready for the data.
Sequential Read
Sequential reads can be initiated as either a current
address read or random address read. The first Data
Byte is transmitted as with the other modes; however,
the master now responds with an acknowledge, indicating it requires additional data. The device continues to
output data for each acknowledge received. The master
terminates the read operation by not responding with an
acknowledge and then issuing a stop condition.
It should be noted that the ninth clock cycle of the read
operation is not a “don’t care.” To terminate a read
operation, the master must either issue a stop condition during the ninth cycle or hold SDA HIGH during
the ninth clock cycle and then issue a stop condition.
Random Read
Random read operation allows the master to access any
memory location in the array. Prior to issuing the Slave
Address Byte with the R/W bit set to one, the master must
first perform a “dummy” write operation. The master
REV 1.3.4 7/12/02
www.xicor.com
The data output is sequential, with the data from
address n followed by the data from address n + 1. The
address counter for read operations increments through
all page and column addresses, allowing the entire
memory contents to be serially read during one operation. At the end of the address space the counter “rolls
over” to address 0000H and the device continues to output data for each acknowledge received. See Figure 15
for the acknowledge and data tr ansf er sequence.

Following a start condition, the master must output a
Slave Address Byte. This b yte consists of se ver al parts:
– a device type identifier that is always ‘101x’. Where
x=0 is for Array, x=1 is for Control Register or Fault
Detection Register.
– next two bits are ‘0’.
– next bit that becomes the MSB of the address.

– One bit of the slave command byte is a R/W
bit. The
R/W bit of the Slave Address Byte defines the operation to be performed. When the R/W bit is a one, then
a read operation is selected. A zero selects a write
operation.
Word Address
The word address is either supplied by the master or
obtained from an internal counter. The internal counter
is undefined on a power up condition.
Operational Notes
The device powers-up in the f ollo wing state:
– The device is in the low power standby state.
– The WEL bit is set to ‘0’. In this state it is not possible
to write to the device.
– SDA pin is the input mode.
– RESET/RESET Signal is active for t
PURST
.
Figure 14. Sequential Read Sequence
Data Protection
The following circuitry has been included to prevent
inadvertent writes:
– The WEL bit must be set to allow write operations.
– The proper clock count and bit sequence is required
prior to the stop bit in order to start a nonvolatile write
cycle.
– A three step sequence is required before writing into
the Control Register to change Watchdog Timer or
Block Lock settings.
