These devices combine three popular functions, Power-on
Reset Control, Supply Voltage Supervision, and Block Lock
Protect Serial EEPROM Memory in one package. This
combination lowers system cost, reduces board space
requirements, and increases reliability.
Applying power to the device activates the power-on reset
circuit which holds RESET
time. This allows the power supply and oscillator to stabilize
before the processor can execute code.
The device’s low V

system from low voltage conditions by holding
RESET
/RESET active when VCC falls below a minimum VCC
trip point. RESET
/RESET remains asserted until VCC returns
to proper operating level and stabilizes. Five industry
standard V
thresholds are available, however, Intersil’s
TRIP
unique circuits allow the threshold to be reprogrammed to
meet custom requirements or to fine-tune the threshold in
applications requiring higher precision.

SPI Serial Memory
The memory portion of the device is a CMOS serial
EEPROM array with Intersil’s block lock protection. The
array is internally organized as x 8. The device features a
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) and software protocol
allowing operation on a simple four-wire bus.
The device utilizes Intersil’s proprietary Direct Write
providing a minimum endurance of 100,000 cycles and a
minimum data retention of 100 years.
The device is designed to interface directly with the
synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) of many
popular microcontroller families. It contains an 8-bit
instruction register that is accessed via the SI input, with
data being clocked in on the rising edge of SCK. CS
™

Write Enable Latch
The device contains a write enable latch. This latch must be
SET before a write operation is initiated. The WREN
instruction will set the latch and the WRDI instruction will
reset the latch (Figure 3). This latch is automatically reset
upon a power-up condition and after the completion of a
valid write cycle.
Status Register
The RDSR instruction provides access to the status register.
The status register may be read at any time, even during a
write cycle. The status register is formatted as follows:

The Write-In-Progress (WIP) bit is a volatile, read only bit
All instructions (Table 1), addresses and data are transferred
MSB first. Data input on the SI line is latched on the first
rising edge of SCK after CS
goes LOW. Data is output on the
SO line by the falling edge of SCK. SCK is static, allowing
the user to stop the clock and then start it again to resume
and indicates whether the device is busy with an internal
nonvolatile write operation. The WIP bit is read using the
RDSR instruction. When set to a “1”, a nonvolatile write
operation is in progress. When set to a “0”, no write is in
progress.
