The Microchip Technology Inc. 93XX46A/B/C devices
are 1K bit low voltage serial Electrically Erasable
PROMs (EEPROM). Word-selectable devices such as
the 93AA46C, 93LC46C or 93C46C are dependent
upon external logic levels driving the ORG pin to set
word size. For dedicated 8-bit communication, the
93AA46A, 93LC46A or 93C46A devices are available,
while the 93AA46B, 93LC46B and 93C46B devices
provide dedicated 16-bit communication. Advanced
CMOS technology makes these devices ideal for low
power, nonvolatile memory applications. The entire
93XX Series is available in standard packages including 8-lead PDIP and SOIC, and advanced packaging
including 8-lead MSOP, 6-lead SOT-23, and 8-lead
TSSOP. Pb-free (Pure Matte Sn) finish is also
available.

2.1Start Condition
The Start bit is detected by the device if CS and DI are
both high with respect to the positive edge of CLK for
the first time.
Before a Start conditi on is detect ed, CS, CL K, and DI
may change in any combination (except to that of a
Start condition), without resulting in any device
operation (READ, WRITE, ERASE, EWEN, EWDS,
ERAL, or WRAL). As soon as CS is high, the device is
no longer in Standby mode.
An instruction following a Start condition will only be
executed if the requi red opcode, address and data bits
for any particular instruction are clocked in.
2.2Data In/Data Out (DI/DO)
It is possible to connect the Data In and Data Out pins
together. However, with this configuration it is possible
for a “bus conflict” to occur during the “dummy zero”
that precedes the READ ope r atio n, i f A0 is a lo gic hig h

Data Out is undefine d and will depend upon the rela tive
impedances of Data Out and the signal source driving
A0. The higher the current sourcing capability of A0,
the higher the voltage at the Data Out pin. In order to
limit this current, a resistor should be connected
between DI and DO.
status can be verified during an Erase/
2.3Data Protection
All modes of operation ar e inhibited when VCC is below
a typical voltage of 1.5V for '93AA' and '93LC' devices
or 3.8V for '93C' devices.
The EWEN and EWDS commands give additional
protection against accidentally programming during
normal operation.
Note:For added protection, an EWDS command
should be performed after every write
operation.
After power-up, the device is automatically in the
EWDS mode. Therefore, an EWEN instruction must be
performed before the initial ERASE or WRITE instruction
can be executed.

CLK is a “Don't Care” if CS is low (device deselected).
If CS is high, but the Start condition has not been
detected (DI = 0), any number of clock cycle s can be
received by the device without changing its status (i.e.,
waiting for a Start condition).
CLK cycles are not required during the self-timed
WRITE (i.e., auto ERASE/WRITE) cycle.
After detection of a S ta rt condition t he specified numb er
of clock cycle s (respectively low-to-high tr ansitions of

3.3Data In (DI)
Data In (DI) is used to clock in a Start bit, opcode,
address and data synchronously with the CLK input.
3.4Data Out (DO)
Data Out (DO) is used in the READ mode to output
data synchronously with the CLK input (T

This pin also provides READY/BUSY

status information is available on the DO pin if CS is
brought high after being low for minimum Chip Select

has been initiated.
The Status signal is not available on DO, if CS is held
low during th e entire ERASE or W RITE cycle. In this
case, DO is in the HIGH-Z mode. If status is checked
after the ERASE/WRITE cycle, the d ata line will be hig h

NOTES:
DS21749D-page 22 2003 Microchip Technology Inc.
Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip's Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the co de protection fea tures of our
products. Attempts to break microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
