1 Description

The M95040 is a 4 Kbit (512 x 8) electrically erasable programmable memory (EEPROM),
accessed by a high-speed SPI-compatible bus. The other members of the family (M95020
and M95010) are identical, though proportionally smaller (2 and 1 Kbit, respectively).
Each device is accessed by a simple serial interface that is SPI-compatible. The bus signals
are C, D and Q.
The device is selected when Chip Select (S
can be interrupted using Hold (HOLD
(W
).
). WRITE instructions are disabled by Write Protect

All of the input and output signals can be held high or low (according to voltages of V
V
or VOL, as specified in Table 13: DC characteristics (M950x0, device grade 3) to
IL
Table 16: DC characteristics (M950x0-R, device grade 6)). These signals are described
next.

2.1 Serial Data output (Q)

This output signal is used to transfer data serially out of the device. Data is shifted out on the
falling edge of Serial Clock (C).

2.2 Serial Data input (D)

This input signal is used to transfer data serially into the device. It receives instructions,
addresses, and the data to be written. Values are latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock
(C).

IH

2.3 Serial Clock (C)

This input signal provides the timing of the serial interface. Instructions, addresses, or data
present at Serial Data Input (D) are latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Data on
Serial Data Output (Q) changes after the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).

2.4 Chip Select (S)

When this input signal is high, the device is deselected and Serial Data Output (Q) is at high
impedance. Unless an internal Write cycle is in progress, the device will be in the Standby

2.5 Hold (HOLD)

The Hold (HOLD) signal is used to pause any serial communications with the device without
deselecting the device.
During the Hold condition, the Serial Data Output (Q) is high impedance, and Serial Data

2.9.1 Operating supply voltage V
Prior to selecting the memory and issuing instructions to it, a valid and stable VCC voltage
within the specified [V
(min), VCC(max)] range must be applied (see Table 8: Operating
CC
conditions (M950x0), Table 9: Operating conditions (M950x0-W) and Table 10: Operating
conditions (M950x0-R)). This voltage must remain stable and valid until the end of the
transmission of the instruction and, for a Write instruction, until the completion of the internal
write cycle (t

2.9.2 Device reset

In order to prevent inadvertent write operations during power-up, a power-on-reset (POR)
circuit is included. At power-up, the device does not respond to any instruction until V
reaches the internal reset threshold voltage (this threshold is defined in Table 8: Operating
conditions (M950x0), Table 9: Operating conditions (M950x0-W) and Table 10: Operating
conditions (M950x0-R) as V

2.9.3 Power-up conditions

When the power supply is turned on, VCC rises continuously from VSS to VCC. During this
time, the Chip Select (S

3 Connecting to the SPI bus

The device is fully compatible with the SPI protocol.
All instructions, addresses and input data bytes are shifted in to the device, most significant
bit first. The Serial Data Input (D) is sampled on the first rising edge of the Serial Clock (C)
after Chip Select (S
All output data bytes are shifted out of the device, most significant bit first. The Serial Data
Output (Q) is latched on the first falling edge of the Serial Clock (C) after the instruction
(such as the Read from Memory Array and Read Status Register instructions) have been
clocked into the device.
Figure 3: Bus master and memory devices on the SPI bus shows an example of three
memory devices connected to an MCU, on an SPI bus. Only one memory device is selected
at a time, so only one memory device drives the Serial Data output (Q) line at a time, the
other memory devices are high impedance.
The pull-up resistor R (represented in Figure 3: Bus master and memory devices on the SPI
bus) ensures that a device is not selected if the bus master leaves the S
impedance state.
In applications where the bus master might enter a state where all SPI bus inputs/outputs
would be in 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 high): this ensures that S and C do not become high at the same
time, and so, that the t

3.1 SPI modes

The device can be driven by a microcontroller with its SPI peripheral running in either of the
two following modes:
CPOL=0, CPHA=0
CPOL=1, CPHA=1
For these two modes, input data is latched in on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C), and
output data is available from the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).
The difference between the two modes, as shown in Figure 4: SPI modes supported, is the
clock polarity when the bus master is in Stand-by mode and not transferring data:
C remains at 0 for (CPOL=0, CPHA=0)
C remains at 1 for (CPOL=1, CPHA=1)

4 Operating features

4.1 Hold condition

The Hold (HOLD) signal is used to pause any serial communications with the device without
resetting the clocking sequence.
During the Hold condition, the Serial Data Output (Q) is high impedance, and Serial Data
Input (D) and Serial Clock (C) are Don’t Care.
To enter the Hold condition, the device must be selected, with Chip Select (S
) low.
Normally, the device is kept selected, for the whole duration of the Hold condition.
Deselecting the device while it is in the Hold condition has the effect of resetting the state of
the device, and this mechanism can be used if it is required to reset any processes that had
been in progress.
The Hold condition starts when the Hold (HOLD
) signal is driven low at the same time as
Serial Clock (C) already being low (as shown in Figure 5: Hold condition activation).
The Hold condition ends when the Hold (HOLD
) signal is driven high at the same time as
Serial Clock (C) already being low.
Figure 5: Hold condition activation also shows what happens if the rising and falling edges
are not timed to coincide with Serial Clock (C) being low.

Figure 5. Hold condition activation

4.2 Status register

Figure 6: Block diagram shows the position of the Status register in the control logic of the
device. This register contains a number of control bits and status bits, as shown in Ta bl e 5 :
Status register format. For a detailed description of the Status register bits, see Section 6.3:
Read Status Register (RDSR).

4.3 Data protection and protocol control

To help protect the device from data corruption in noisy or poorly controlled environments, a
number of safety features have been built in to the device. The main security measures can
be summarized as follows:
The WEL bit is reset at power-up.
Chip Select (S) must rise after the eighth clock count (or multiple thereof) in order to
start a non-volatile Write cycle (in the memory array or in the Status register).
Accesses to the memory array are ignored during the non-volatile programming cycle,
and the programming cycle continues unaffected.
Invalid Chip Select (S) and Hold (HOLD) transitions are ignored.
For any instruction to be accepted and executed, Chip Select (S
) must be driven high after the rising edge of Serial Clock (C) that latches the last bit of the instruction, and before the next rising edge of Serial Clock (C).
For this, “the last bit of the instruction” can be the eighth bit of the instruction code, or the eighth bit of a data byte, depending on the instruction (except in the case of RDSR and READ instructions). Moreover, the “next rising edge of CLOCK” might (or might not) be the next bus transaction for some other device on the bus.
When a Write cycle is in progress, the device protects it against external interruption by ignoring any subsequent READ, WRITE or WRSR instruction until the present cycle is complete.

6.1 Write Enable (WREN)

The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit must be set prior to each WRITE and WRSR instruction. The only way to do this is to send a Write Enable instruction to the device.
As shown in Figure 7: Write Enable (WREN) sequence, to send this instruction to the device, Chip Select (S Serial Data Input (D). The device then enters a wait state. It waits for a the device to be deselected, by Chip Select (S

The device then enters a wait state. It waits for a the device to be deselected, by Chip Select (S

Instructions M950x0 M950x0-W M950x0-R

6.3 Read Status Register (RDSR)

The Read Status Register instruction is used to read the Status Register.
As shown in Figure 9, to send this instruction to the device, Chip Select (S
) is first driven low. The bits of the instruction byte are then shifted in, on Serial Data Input (D). The current state of the bits in the Status register is shifted out, on Serial Data Out (Q). The Read Cycle is terminated by driving Chip Select (S
) high.
The Status Register is always readable, even if a Write or Write Status Register cycle is in progress. During a Write Status Register cycle, the values of the non-volatile bits (BP0, BP1) become available when a new RDSR instruction is executed, after completion of the Write cycle. On the other hand, the two read-only bits (Write Enable Latch (WEL), Write In Progress (WIP)) are dynamically updated during the ongoing Write cycle.
It is also possible to read the Status Register contents continuously, as described in
Figure 9.
Bits b7, b6, b5 and b4 are always read as 1. The status and control bits of the Status register are as follows:

Table 5. Status register format

b7 b0
1 1 1 1 BP1 BP0 WEL WIP
Block Protect bits
Write Enable Latch bit
Write In Progress bit

6.3.1 WIP bit

The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates whether the memory is busy with a Write or Write Status register cycle. When set to 1, such a cycle is in progress, when reset to 0 no such cycle is in progress.

6.3.2 WEL bit

The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch. When set to 1 the internal Write Enable Latch is set, when set to 0 the internal Write Enable Latch is reset and no Write or Write Status Register instruction is accepted.

6.3.3 BP1, BP0 bits

The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to be software protected against Write instructions. These bits are written with the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction. When one or both of the Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits is set to 1, the relevant memory area (as defined in Table 3: Write-protected block size) becomes protected against Write (WRITE) instructions. The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits can be written provided that the Hardware Protected mode has not been set.

6.4 Write Status Register (WRSR)

The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction allows new values to be written to the Status register. Before it can be accepted, a Write Enable (WREN) instruction must previously have been executed.
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S
) low, sending the instruction code followed by the data byte on Serial Data input (D), and driving the Chip Select (S
) signal high. Chip Select (S) must be driven high after the rising edge of Serial Clock (C) that latches in the eighth bit of the data byte, and before the next rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Otherwise, the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is not executed.
Driving the Chip Select (S timed write cycle that takes t
) signal high at a byte boundary of the input data triggers the self-

W
(M950x0, device grade 3) to Table 20: AC characteristics (M950x0-R, device grade 6)). The
instruction sequence is shown in Figure 10: Write Status Register (WRSR) sequence.
While the Write Status Register cycle is in progress, the Status register may still be read to check the value of the Write in progress (WIP) bit: the WIP bit is 1 during the self-timed write cycle t reset at the end of the write cycle t
, and, 0 when the write cycle is complete. The WEL bit (Write enable latch) is also
W
.
W
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction allows the user to change the values of the BP1, BP0 bits which define the size of the area that is to be treated as read only, as defined in Table 3: Write-protected block size.
The contents of the BP1, BP0 bits are updated after the completion of the WRSR instruction, including the t
write cycle.
W
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction has no effect on the b7, b6, b5, b4, b1 and b0 bits in the Status register. Bits b7, b6, b5, b4 are always read as 0.
