DESCRIPTION

The ST93CS66 and ST93CS67 are 4K bit Electri­callyErasable ProgrammableMemory(EEPROM)
fabricatedwithSGS-THOMSON’sHighEndurance
SinglePolysiliconCMOStechnology.The memory
is accessed through a serial inputD and outputQ.

The 4K bit memory is organized as 256 x 16 bit
words.Thememory is accessedby aset of instruc­tionswhich include Read, Write, Page Write, Write
Allandinstructionsused to set thememoryprotec­tion. A Read instruction loads the address of the
first word to be read into an internal address
pointer.

DESCRIPTION (cont’d)
The data is then clocked out serially. The address

pointer is automaticallyincremented after the data
is output and, if the Chip Select input (S) is held
High, the ST93CS66/67 can output a sequential
streamof data words. In thisway,thememory can
be read as a data stream of 16 to 4096 bits, or
continuouslyas the addresscounterautomatically
rolls over to 00 when the highest address is
reached.

Within the time required by a programming cycle
(t

), up to 4 wordsmay be written with the help of

W

the Page Write instruction;thewhole memorymay
alsobe erased,or set to a predetermined pattern,
by using the WriteAll instruction.

Within the memory, an user defined area may be
protected against further Write instructions. The

2/16

size of this area is defined by the content of a
Protect Register, located outside of the memory
array. As a final protection step, data may be per­manently protected by programming a One Time
Programing bit (OTP bit) which locks the Protect
Registercontent.

Programming is internally self-timed (the external
clocksignal on Cinput may be disconnectedorleft
running after the start of a Write cycle) and does
notrequirean erasecyclepriorto the Writeinstruc­tion.TheWriteinstructionwrites 16bits at onetime
intoone of the 256 words, the PageWrite instruc­tion writes up to 4 words of 16 bits to sequential
locations, assuming in both cases that all ad­dressesareoutsidetheWrite Protectedarea. After
the start of the programming cycle, a Ready/Busy
signalis availableon the Data output(Q) when the
ChipSelect (S)input pin is driven High.
