PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Serial Output (SO)
SO is a push/pull serial data output pin. During a read cycle, data is shifted out on this pin. Data is clocked out by the falling edge of the serial clock.
Serial Input (SI)
SI is the serial data input pin. All opcodes, byte addresses, and data to be written to the memory are input on this pin. Data is latched by the rising edge of the serial clock.
Serial Clock (SCK)
The Serial Clock controls the serial bus timing for data input and output. Opcodes, addresses, or data present on the SI pin are latched on the rising edge of the clock input, while data on the SO pin change after the falling edge of the clock input.
Chip Select (CS)
When CS is HIGH, the X25650 is deselected and the SO output pin is at high impedance and unless an internal write operation is underway, the X25650 will be in the standby power mode. CS LOW enables the X25650, placing it in the active power mode. It should be noted that after power-up, a HIGH to LOW transition
on CS is required prior to the start of any operation.
Write Protect (WP)
When WP is LOW and the nonvolatile bit WPEN is “1”, nonvolatile writes to the X25650 status register are disabled, but the part otherwise functions normally. When WP is held HIGH, all functions, including nonvolatile writes operate normally. WP going LOW
while CS is still LOW will interrupt a write to the

the serial communication with the controller without resetting the serial sequence. To pause, HOLD must be brought LOW while SCK is LOW. To resume communication, HOLD is brought HIGH, again while SCK is LOW. If the pause feature is not used, HOLD should be held HIGH at all times.
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The X25650 is a 8K x 8 E2PROM designed to interface directly with the synchronous serial peripheral interface (SPI) of many popular microcontroller families.
The X25650 contains an 8-bit instruction register. It is accessed via the SI input, with data being clocked in on the rising SCK. CS must be LOW and the HOLD and WP inputs must be HIGH during the entire operation.
Table 1 contains a list of the instructions and their opcodes. All instructions, addresses and data are transferred MSB first.
Data input is sampled on the first rising edge of SCK after CS goes LOW. SCK is static, allowing the user to stop the clock and then resume operations. If the clock line is shared with other peripheral devices on the SPI bus, the user can assert the HOLD input to place the X25650 into a “PAUSE” condition. After releasing HOLD, the X25650 will resume operation from the point when HOLD was first asserted.
Write Enable Latch
The X25650 contains a “write enable” latch. This latch must be SET before a write operation will be completed internally. The WREN instruction will set the latch and the WRDI instruction will reset the latch. This latch is automatically reset upon a power-up condition and after the completion of a byte, page, or status register write cycle.
Table 1. Instruction Set
Status Register
The RDSR instruction provides access to the status register. The status register may be read at any time, even during a write cycle. The status register is formatted as follows:

|
|
|
|
|
|
7037 FRM T02
WPEN, BL0 and BL1 are set by the WRSR instruction. WEL and WIP are read-only and automatically set by other operations.
The Write-In-Process (WIP) bit indicates whether the X25650 is busy with a write operation. When set to a “1”, a write is in progress, when set to a “0”, no write is in progress. During a write, all other bits are set to “1”.
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the “write enable” latch. When set to a “1”, the latch is set, when set to a “0”, the latch is reset.
The Block Lock (BL0 and BL1) bits are nonvolatile and allow the user to select one of four levels of protection. The X25650 is divided into four 16384-bit segments. One, two, or all four of the segments may be protected. That is, the user may read the segments but will be unable to alter (write) data within the selected segments. The partitioning is controlled as illustrated below.

Programmable Hardware Write Protection
The Write Protect (WP) pin and the nonvolatile Write Protect Enable (WPEN) bit in the Status Register control the Programmable Hardware Write Protect feature. Hardware Write Protection is enabled when WP pin is LOW, and the WPEN bit is “1”.Hardware Write Protection is disabled when either the WP pin is HIGH or the WPEN bit is “0”When. the chip is hardware write protected, nonvolatile writes are disabled to the Status Register, including the Block Lock bits and the WPEN bit itself, as well as the block-protected sections in the memory array. Only the sections of the memory array that are not block-protected can be written.
In Circuit Programmable ROM Mode
Note that since the WPEN bit is write protected, it cannot be changed back to a LOW state; so write protection is enabled as long as the WP pin is held LOW. Thus an In Circuit Programmable ROM function can be emplemented by hardwiring the WP pin to Vss, writing to and Block Locking the desired portion of the array to be ROM, and then programming the WPEN bit HIGH. The table above defines the program protect status for each combination of WPEN and WP.
Clock and Data Timing
Data input on the SI line is latched on the rising edge of SCK. Data is output on the SO line by the falling edge of SCK.
Read Sequence
When reading from the E2PROM memory array, CS is first pulled LOW to select the device. The 8-bit READ instruction is transmitted to the X25650, followed by the 16-bit address of which the last 13 are used. After the READ opcode and address are sent, the data stored in the memory at the selected address is shifted out on the SO line. The data stored in memory
at the next address can be read sequentially by continuing to provide clock pulses. The address is automatically incremented to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out. When the highest address is reached ($1FFF) the address counter rolls over to address $0000 allowing the read cycle to be continued indefinitely. The read operation is terminated by taking CS HIGH. Refer to the read E2PROM array operation sequence illustrated in Figure 1.
To read the status register the CS line is first pulled LOW to select the device followed by the 8-bit RDSR instruction. After the RDSR opcode is sent, the contents of the status register are shifted out on the SO line. Figure 2 illustrates the read status register sequence.
Write Sequence
Prior to any attempt to write data into the X25650, the “write enable” latch must first be set by issuing the WREN instruction (See Figure 3). CS is first taken LOW, then the WREN instruction is clocked into the X25650. After all eight bits of the instruction are transmitted, CS must then be taken HIGH. If the user continues the write operation without taking CS HIGH after issuing the WREN instruction, the write operation will be ignored.
To write data to the E2PROM memory array, the user issues the WRITE instruction, followed by the address and then the data to be written. This is minimally a thirty-two clock operation. CS must go LOW and remain LOW for the duration of the operation. The host may continue to write up to 32 bytes of data to the X25650. The only restriction is the 32 bytes must reside on the same page. If the address counter reaches the end of the page and the clock continues, the counter will “roll over” to the first address of the page and overwrite any data that may have been written.
For the write operation (byte or page write) to be completed, CS can only be brought HIGH after bit 0 of data byte N is clocked in. If it is brought HIGH at any other time the write operation will not be completed. Refer to Figures 4 and 5 below for a detailed illustration of the write sequences and time frames in which CS going HIGH are valid.
To write to the status register, the WRSR instruction is followed by the data to be written. Data bits 0, 1, 4, 5 and 6 must be “0”Figure. 6 illustrates this sequence.
While the write is in progress following a status register or E2PROM write sequence, the status register may be read to check the WIP bit. During this time the WIP bit will be HIGH.

X25650
Hold Operation
The HOLD input should be HIGH (at VIH) under normal
operation. If a data transfer is to be interrupted HOLD can be pulled LOW to suspend the transfer until it can be resumed. The only restriction is the SCK input must be LOW when HOLD is first pulled LOW and SCK must also be LOW when HOLD is released.
The HOLD input may be tied HIGH either directly to VCC or tied to VCC through a resistor.
Operational Notes
The X25650 powers-up in the following state:
•The device is in the low power standby state.
•A HIGH to LOW transition on CS is required to enter an active state and receive an instruction.
•SO pin is high impedance.
•The “write enable” latch is reset.
Data Protection
The following circuitry has been included to prevent inadvertent writes:
•The “write enable” latch is reset upon power-up.
•A WREN instruction must be issued to set the “write enable” latch.
•CS must come HIGH at the proper clock count in order to start a write cycle.
