Write status register command is prohibited.
This IC has status registers. The status registers are of 8 bits and express the following parameters.
BP0 and BP1 can be set by write status register command. These 2 bits are memorized into the EEPROM, therefore are
valid even when power source is turned off.
Rewrite characteristics and data hold time are same as characteristics of the EEPROM.
WEN can be set by write enable command and write disable command. WEN becomes write disable status when power
source is turned off. R/B is for write confirmation, therefore cannot be set externally.
The value of status register can be read by read status command.

it is set to write disable status by write disable command. As for these commands, set CSB LOW, and then input the
respective ope codes. The respective commands accept command at the 7-th clock rise. Even with input over 7 clocks,
command becomes valid.
When to carry out write and write status register command, it is necessary to set write enable status by the write enable
command. If write or write status register command is input in the write disable status, commands are cancelled. And
even in the write enable status, once write and write status register command is executed, it gets in the write disable
status. After power on, this IC is in write disable status.

By read command, data of EEPROM can be read. As for this command, set CSB LOW, then input address after read ope
code. EEPROM starts data output of the designated address. Data output is started from SCK fall of 15/23
from D7 to D0 sequentially. This IC has increment read function. After output of data for 1 byte (8bits), by continuing input
of SCK, data of the next address can be read. Increment read can read all the addresses of EEPROM. After reading data
of the most significant address, by continuing increment read, data of the most insignificant address is read.

By write command, data of EEPROM can be written. As for this command, set CSB LOW, then input address and data
after write ope code. Then, by making CSB HIGH, the EEPROM starts writing. The write time of EEPROM requires time
of tE/W (Max 5ms). During tE/W, other than status read command is not accepted. Start CSB after taking the last data
(D0), and before the next SCK clock starts. At other timing, write command is not executed, and this write command is
cancelled. This IC has page write function, and after input of data for 1 byte (8 bits), by continuing data input without
starting CSB, data up to 16/32
*1
bytes can be written for one tE/W. In page write, the insignificant 4/5
*2
bit of the
designated address is incremented internally at every time when data of 1 byte is input and data is written to respective
addresses. When data of the maximum bytes or higher is input, address rolls over, and previously input data is
overwritten.

Write status register command can write status register data. The data can be written by this command are 2 bits
is, BP1 (bit3) and BP0 (bit2) among 8 bits of status register. By BP1 and BP0, write disable block of EEPROM can be set.
As for this command, set CSB LOW, and input ope code of write status register, and input data. Then, by making CSB
HIGH, EEPROM starts writing. Write time requires time of tE/W as same as write. As for CSB rise, start CSB after taking
the last data bit (bit0), and before the next SCK clock starts. At other timing, command is cancelled. Write disable block is
determined by BP1 and BP0, and the block can be selected from 1/4 of memory array, 1/2, and entire memory array.
(Refer to the write disable block setting table.)
To the write disabled block, write cannot be made, and only read can be made.

○Timing
As shown in Fig.43, at standby, when SCK is “H”, even if CSB is fallen, SI status is not read at fall edge. SI status is read
at SCK rise edge after fall of CSB. At standby and at power ON/OFF, set CSB “H” status.
Even if CSB is fallen at SCK=SI=”H”,
SI status is not read at that edge.

●WPB Cancel Valid Area
WPB is normally fixed to “H” or “L” for use, but when WPB is controlled so as to cancel write status register command and
write command, pay attention to the following WPB valid timing.
While write or write status register command is executed, by setting WPB = “L” in cancel valid area, command can be
cancelled. The area from command ope code before CSB rise at internal automatic write start becomes the cancel valid area.
However, once write is started, any input cannot be cancelled. WPB input becomes Don’t Care, and cancellation becomes invalid.
By HOLDB pin, command communication can be stopped temporarily (HOLD status). The HOLDB pin carries out command
communications normally when it is HIGH. To get in HOLD status, at command communication, when SCK=LOW, set the
HOLDB pin LOW. At HOLD status, SCK and SI become Don’t Care, and SO becomes high impedance (High-Z). To release
the HOLD status, set the HOLDB pin HIGH when SCK=LOW. After that, communication can be restarted from the point
before the HOLD status. For example, when HOLD status is made after A5 address input at read, after release of HOLD
status, by starting A4 address input, read can be restarted. When in HOLD status, leave CSB LOW. When it is set
CSB=HIGH in HOLD status, the IC is reset, therefore communication after that cannot be restarted.
When CSB is started, write starts.
After CSB rise, cancellation cannot be made by any means.
c:After 16 clock rise.
Cancel by CSB=”H”. However, when write starts (CSB is started)
in the area b, cancellation cannot be made by any means.
And, by inputting on SCK clock, cancellation cannot be made.

Note 2) If CSB is started at the same timing as that of the SCK rise, write execution / cancel becomes unstable,
therefore, it is recommended to fall in SCK = “L” area. As for SCK rise, assure timing of tCSS / tCSH or higher.
○WREN/WRDI
a:From ope code to 7-th clock rise, cancel by CSB = “H”.
b:Cancellation is not available when CSB is started after 7-th clock.
In order to realize stable high speed operations, pay attention to the following input / output pin conditions.
○Input pin pull up, pull down resistance
When to attach pull up, pull down resistance to EEPROM input pin, select an appropriate value for the microcontroller
VOL, IOL from VIL characteristics of this IC.

Further, by amplitude VIHE, VILE of signal input to EEPROM, operation speed changes. By inputting signal of amplitude
/ GND level to input, more stable high speed operations can be realized. On the contrary, when amplitude of
of V
CC
0.8VCC / 0.2VCC is input, operation speed becomes slow.*1
In order to realize more stable high speed operation, it is recommended to make the values of R

(ж1 At this moment, operating timing guaranteed value is guaranteed.)
Load capacity of SO output pin affects upon delay characteristic of SO output. (Data output delay time, time from HOLDB
to High-Z) In order to make output delay characteristic into higher speed, make SO load capacity small. In concrete, “Do
not connect many devices to SO bus”, “Make the wire between the controller and EEPROM short”, and so forth.

●Notes on Power ON/OFF
○At power ON/OFF, set CSB “H” (=VCC).
When CSB is “L”, this IC gets in input accept status (active). If power is turned on in this status, noises and the likes may
cause malfunction, mistake write or so. To prevent these, at power ON, set CSB “H”. (When CSB is in “H” status, all
inputs are canceled.)

(Good example) CSB terminal is pulled up to V
CC.
At power OFF, take 10ms or higher before supply. If power is turned on without observing this condition, the IC internal
circuit may not be reset, which please note.
(Bad example) CSB terminal is “L” at power ON/OFF.
In this case, CSB always becomes “L” (active status), and EEPROM may have malfunction, mistake write owing to
noises and the likes.
Even when CSB input is High-Z, the status becomes like this case, which please note.
○LVCC circuit
LVCC (V
-Lockout) circuit prevents data rewrite action at low power, and prevents wrong write.
CC
At LVCC voltage (Typ. =1.9V) or below, it prevent data rewrite.
○P.O.R. circuit
This IC has a POR (Power On Reset) circuit as mistake write countermeasure. After POR action, it gets in write disable
status. The POR circuit is valid only when power is ON, and does not work when power is OFF. When power is ON, if the
recommended conditions of the following tR, tOFF, and Vbot are not satisfied, it may become write enable status owing
to noises and the likes.
When noise or surge gets in the power source line, malfunction may occur, therefore, for removing these, it is
recommended to attach a bypass capacitor (0.1μF) between IC V
possible.And, it is also recommended to attach a bypass capacitor between board VCC and GND.
○SCK noise
When the rise time (tR) of SCK is long, and a certain degree or more of noise exists, malfunction may occur owing to
clock bit displacement. To avoid this, a Schmitt trigger circuit is built in SCK input. The hysterisis width of this circuit is set
about 0.2V, if noises exist at SCK input, set the noise amplitude 0.2Vp-p or below. And it is recommended to set the rise
time (tR) of SCK 100ns or below. In the case when the rise time is 100ns or higher, take sufficient noise
countermeasures. Make the clock rise, fall time as small as possible.
○WPB noise
During execution of write status register command, if there exist noises on WPB pin, mistake in recognition may occur
and forcible cancellation may result, which please note. To avoid this, a Schmitt trigger circuit is built in WPB input.
In the same manner, a Schmitt trigger circuit is built in CSB input, SI input and HOLDB input too.
●Notes of Use
(1) Described numeric values and data are design representative values, and the values are not guaranteed.
(2) We believe that application circuit examples are recommendable, however, in actual use, confirm characteristics
further sufficiently. In the case of use by changing the fixed number of external parts, make your decision with sufficient
margin in consideration of static characteristics and transition characteristics and fluctuations of external parts and our
LSI.
(3) Absolute maximum ratings
If the absolute maximum ratings such as impressed voltage and operating temperature range and so forth are exceeded,
LSI may be destructed. Do not impress voltage and temperature exceeding the absolute maximum ratings. In the case of
fear exceeding the absolute maximum ratings, take physical safety countermeasures such as fuses, and see to it that
conditions exceeding the absolute maximum ratings should not be impressed to LSI.
(4) GND electric potential
Set the voltage of GND terminal lowest at any action condition. Make sure that each terminal voltage is higher than that
of GND terminal.
(5) Heat design
In consideration of permissible dissipation in actual use condition, carry out heat design with sufficient margin.
(6) Terminal to terminal short circuit and wrong packaging
When to package LSI onto a board, pay sufficient attention to LSI direction and displacement. Wrong packaging may
destruct LSI. And in the case of short circuit between LSI terminals and terminals and power source, terminal and GND
owing to foreign matter, LSI may be destructed.
(7) Use in a strong electromagnetic field may cause malfunction, therefore, evaluate design sufficiently.
