The M93C46 (1 Kbit), M93C56 (2 Kbit), M93C66 (4 Kbit), M93C76 (8 Kbit) and M93C86
(16 Kbit) are Electrically Erasable P
through the MICROWIRE™ bus protocol. The memory array can be configured either in
bytes (x8b) or in words (x16b).
ROgrammable Memory (EEPROM) devices accessed
The M93Cx6-W devices operate within a voltage
supply range from 2.5 V to 5.5 V and the
M93Cx6-R devices operate within a voltage supply range from 1.8 V to 5.5 V. All these
devices operate with a clock frequency of 2 MHz (or less), over an ambient temperature
ange of - 40 °C / + 85 °C.

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 on
line at a time, the other devices are high impedan ce.
e device drives the Serial Data output (Q)
The pull-down resistor R (represented in Figure 3) ensures that no device is s
elected 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
imp
edance at the same time (for example, if the bus master is reset du ring 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
requirement is met. The typical value of R is 100 kΩ.

3.1 Supply voltage (VCC)
3.1.1 Operating supply voltage (VCC)
Prior to selecting the memory and issuing instructions to it, a valid and stable VCC voltage
within the specified [V
DC supply voltage, it is recommended to decouple the V
(usually of the order of 10 nF to 100 nF) close to the V
This voltage must remain stable and valid until the end of the transmission of the instr uction
and, for a Write instruction, until the completion of the internal write cycle (t
3.1.2 Power-up conditions
When the power supply is turned on, VCC rises from VSS to VCC. During this time, the Chip

In order to prevent inadvertent Write operations during power-up, a power on reset (POR)
circuit is included. At power-up (continuous rise of V

lower than the minimum V

When VCC passes the POR threshold, the device is reset and is in the following state:
•Standby Power mode
•deselected (assuming that there is a pull-down resistor on the S line)
3.1.4 Power-down
At power-down (continuous decrease in VCC), as soon as VCC drops from the normal
operating voltage to below the power on reset threshold voltage, the device stops
responding to any instruction sent to it.
During power-down, the device must be deselected and in th e S ta ndby Power mode (that is,

•Each instruction is preceded by a ri sing edge on Chip Select

•A start bit, which is the first ‘1’ read on Seria
Serial Clock (C).
•Two op-code bits, read on Serial Data Input (D) du
