DESCRIPTION
The Microchip Technology Inc. 25AA640/25LC640/
25C640 (25xx640
*
) is a 64K bit serial Electrically Erasable PROM. The memory is accessed via a simple
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) compatible serial bus.
The bus signals required are a clock input (SCK) plus
separate data in (SI) and data out (SO) lines. Access to
the device is controlled through a chip select (CS
) input.
Communication to the device can be paused via the
hold pin (HOLD
). While the device is paused, transitions on its inputs will be ignored, with the exception of
chip select, allowing the host to service higher priority
interrupts.
