1 Description
The M93C46 (1 Kbit), M93C56 (2 Kbit), M93C66 (4 Kbit), M93C76 (8 Kbit) and M93C86
(16 Kbit) are Electrically Erasable PROgrammable Memory (EEPROM) devices accessed
through the MICROWIRE bus protocol. The memory array can be configured either in bytes
(x8b) or in words (x16b).
The M93Cx6 devices operate within a voltage supply range from 4.5 V to 5.5 V, and the
M93Cx6-W devices operate within a voltage supply range from 2.5 V to 5.5 V.
The M93Cx6 devices are guaranteed over the -40°C/+125°C temperature range and are
compliant with the Automotive standard AEC-Q100 Grade 1.

The M93Cx6 is accessed by a set of instructions, as summarized in Ta bl e 3 , and in more
detail in Table 4: Instruction set for the M93C46 to Table 6: Instruction set for the M93C76
and M93C86).

Instruction Description Data
READ Read Data from Memory Byte or Word
WRITE Write Data to Memory Byte or Word
WEN Write Enable
WDS Write Disable
ERASE Erase Byte or Word Byte or Word
ERAL Erase All Memory
WRAL Write All Memory with same Data
A Read Data from Memory (READ) instruction loads the address of the first byte or word to
be read in an internal address register. The data at this address is then clocked out serially.
The address register is automatically incremented after the data is output and, if Chip Select
Input (S) is held High, the M93Cx6 can output a sequential stream of data bytes or words. In
this way, the memory can be read as a data stream from eight to 16384 bits long (in the
case of the M93C86), or continuously (the address counter automatically rolls over to 00h
when the highest address is reached).
Programming is internally self-timed (the external clock signal on Serial Clock (C) may be
stopped or left running after the start of a Write cycle) and does not require an Erase cycle
prior to the Write instruction. The Write instruction writes 8 or 16 bits at a time into one of the
byte or word locations of the M93Cx6. After the start of the programming cycle, a
Busy/Ready signal is available on Serial Data Output (Q) when Chip Select Input (S) is
driven High.
An internal Power-on Data Protection mechanism in the M93Cx6 inhibits the device when
the supply is too low.

2 Connecting to the serial bus
Figure 3 shows an example of three memory devices connected to an MCU, on a serial bus.
Only one device is selected at a time, so only one device drives the Serial Data output (Q)
line at a time, the other devices are high impedance.
The pull-down resistor R (represented in Figure 3 ) ensures that no device is selected if the
bus master leaves the S line in the high impedance state.
In applications where the bus master may be in a state where all inputs/outputs are high
impedance at the same time (for example, if the bus master is reset during the transmission
of an instruction), the clock line (C) must be connected to an external pull-down resistor so
that, if all inputs/outputs become high impedance, the C line is pulled low (while the S line is
pulled low): this ensures that C does not become high at the same time as S goes low, and
so, that the t
Figure 3. Bus master and memory devices on the serial bus
requirement is met. The typical value of R is 100 kΩ.
