The device is optimized for use in applications requiring data storage and serial transmission of con- figuration and control information. The AT24C21 features two modes of operation: Transmit-Only Mode and Bidirectional Mode. Upon power-up, the AT24C21 will be in the Transmit-Only Mode, sending a serial-bit stream of the entire memory contents, clocked via the VCLK pin. The Bidirectional Mode is selected by a valid high-to-low transition on the SCL pin and offers byte selectable read/write capability of the entire memory array. The AT24C21 is available in space saving 8-pin PDIP and 8-pin SOIC packages.2-Wire Serial1K (128 x AT24C21Pin ConfigurationsPin Name Function NC No Connect SDA Serial DataSCL Serial Clock Input(Bidirectional Mode)VCLK Serial Clock Input(Transmit-Only Mode) 8-Pin PDIP 8-Pin SOICRev. 0405E�7/98Absolute Maximum Ratings*Operating Temperature ................................. -55 C to +125 C *NOTICE: Stresses beyond those listed under “AbsoluteMaximum Ratings�may cause permanent dam- Storage Temperature .................................... -65 C to +150 CVoltage on Any Pinwith Respect to Ground .....................................-1.0V to +7.0V Maximum Operating Voltage........................................... 6.25VDC Output Current........................................... ............. 5.0 mAage to the device.

There is a separate2-wire protocol to support each mode, each having a sepa- rate clock input (SCL and VCLK) and both modes sharing a common Bidirectional data line (SDA). The AT24C21 enters the Transmit-Only Mode upon powering up the device. In this mode, the device transmits data on the SDA pin upon a clock signal on the VCLK pin. The device will remain in the Transmit-Only Mode until a valid high-to-low transition takes place on the SCL pin. The device will switch into the Bidirectional Mode when a valid transition on the SCL pin is recognized. Once the device has transi- tioned to the Bidirectional Mode, there is no way to return to the Transmit-Only Mode, except to power down (reset) the device.Transmit-Only Mode (DDC1)The AT24C21 will power up in the Transmit-Only Mode. In this mode, the device will output one bit of data on the SDA pin on each rising edge on the VCLK pin. Data is transmit- ted in 8 bit words with the most significant bit first. EachFigure 1. Transmit-Only ModeFigure 2. Device Initialization for Transmit-Only Modeword is followed by a 9th “don't care�bit which will be in high impedance state (refer to Figure 1). The AT24C21 will continuously cycle through the entire memory array in incremental sequence as long a VCLK is present and no falling edges on SCL are received. When the maximum address (7FH) is reached, the output will wrap around to the zero location (00H) and continue. The Bidirectional mode clock (SCL) pin must be held high for the device to remain in the Transmit-Only mode.Upon power-up, the AT24C21 will not output valid data until it has been initialized. During initialization, data will not be available until after the first nine clocks are sent to the device (refer to Figure 2). The starting address for the Transmit-Only mode can be determined during initializa- tion. If the SDA pin is held high during the first eight clocks (refer to Figure 2), the starting address will be 7FH. If the SDA pin is low during the first eight clocks, the starting address will be 00H. During the ninth clock, SDA should be in high impedance. Bidirectional Mode (DDC2)This mode supports a 2-wire, Bidirectional data transmis- sion protocol. The AT24C21 can be switched into the Bidi- rectional Mode by issuing a valid high to low transition on the SCL pin (refer to Figure 3). After the device is in the Bidirectional Mode, all inputs to the VCLK pin are ignored, except when a logic high is required to enable write capa- bility. All byte and page writes and byte and sequential reads are supported in this mode.Bidirectional Mode OperationCLOCK and DATA TRANSITIONS: The SDA pin is nor- mally pulled high with an external device. Data on the SDA pin may change only during SCL low time periods (refer to Data Validity timing diagram). Data changes during SCL high periods will indicate a start or stop condition as defined below.START CONDITION: A high-to-low transition of SDA with SCL high is a start condition which must precede any other command (refer to Start and Stop Definition timing dia- gram).STOP CONDITION: A low-to-high transition of SDA with SCL high is a s top c ondi tion. After a r ead or wr i t e sequence, the stop command will place the EEPROM in a standby power mode (refer to Start and Stop Definition tim- ing diagram).ACKNOWLEDGE: All addresses and data words are seri- ally transmitted to and from the EEPROM in 8-bit words. The EEPROM sends a zero to acknowledge that it hasreceived each word. This happens during the ninth clock cycle.Device AddressingThe AT24C21 requires an 8-bit device address word fol- lowing a start condition to enable the chip for a read or write operation (refer to Figure 4).The device address word consists of a mandatory one, zero sequence for the first four most significant bits as shown. This is common to all the EEPROM devices.The next three bits are don’t care for the AT24C21.The eighth bit of the device address is the read/write opera- tion select bit. A read operation is initiated if this bit is high and a write operation is initiated if this bit is low.Upon a compare of the device address, the EEPROM will output a zero. If a compare is not made, the chip will return to a standby state.STANDBY MODE: The AT24C21 features a low power standby mode which is enabled: (a) upon power-up and (b) after the receipt of the STOP bit and the completion of any internal operations.MEMORY RESET: After an interruption in protocol, power loss or system reset, any 2-wire part can be reset by follow- ing these stepsa) Clock up to 9 cycles, (b) look for SDA high in each cycle while SCL is high and then (c) create a start condition as SDA is high.Figure 3.

The write cycle time tWR is the time from a valid stop condition of a write sequence to the end of the internal clear/write cycle.Data ValidityStart and Stop DefinitionOutput Acknowledge Write OperationsBYTE WRITE: A write operation requires an 8-bit data word addresses following the device address word and ac k now led g m ent . U pon r e c e i p t of th is add re s s, th e EEPROM will again respond with a zero and then clock in the first 8-bit data word. Following receipt of the 8-bit data word, the EEPROM will output a zero and the addressing device, such as a microcontroller, must terminate the write sequence with a stop condition. At this time the EEPROM enters an internally-timed write cycle , tWR, to the nonvola-tile memory. All inputs are disabled during this write cycleand the EEPROM will not respond until the write is com- plete (refer to Figure 5).It is required that VCLK be held at a high logic level in order to program the device. This applies to byte write and page write operation. Note that VCLK can go low while the device is in its self-timed program operation and not affect programming.PAGE WRITE: The AT24C21 is capable of an 8-byte page write.A page write is initiated the same as a byte write, but the microcontroller does not send a stop condition after the first da ta wo rd is clocked in . Instead, after the EEPRO M acknowledges receipt of the first data word, the microcon- troller can transmit up to seven more data words. The EEPROM will respond with a zero after each data word received. The microcontroller must terminate the page write sequence with a stop condition (refer to Figure 6).The data word address lower three bits are internally incre- mented following the receipt of each data word. The higher data word address bits are not incremented, retaining the memory page row location. When the word address, inter- nally generated, reaches the page boundary, the following byte is placed at the beginning of the same page. If more than eight data words are transmitted to the EEPROM, the data word address will “roll over�and previous data will be overwritten. The address “roll over�during write is from the last byte of the current page to the first byte of the same page.It is required that VCLK be held at a high logic level in order to program the device. This applies to byte write and page write operation. Note that VCLK can go low while the device is in its self-timed program operation and not affect programming.ACKNOWLEDGE POLLING: Once the internally-timed write cycle has started and the EEPROM inputs are dis- abled, acknowledge polling can be initiated. This involves sending a start condition followed by the device address word. The read/write bit is representative of the operation desired. Only if the internal write cycle has completed will the EEPROM respond with a zero allowing the read or write sequence to continue.WRITE PROTECTION: When VCLK pin is connected to GND and in the Bidirectional Mode, the entire memory is protected and becomes ROM only. This protects the device memory from any inadvertent write operations.NOISE PROTECTION: Special internal circuitry placed on the SDA and SCL pins prevent small noise spikes from activating the device. Furthermore, the AT24C21 employs a low VCC detector circuit which disables the erase\writelogic whenever VCC falls below 1.5 volts.Read OperationsRead operations are initiated the same way as write opera- tions with the exception that the read/write select bit in the device address word is set to one. There are three read operations: current address read, random address read and sequential read.CURRENT ADDRESS READ: The internal data word address counter maintains the last address accessed dur- ing the last read or write operation, incremented by one. This address stays valid between operations as long as the chip power is maintained. The address “roll over�during read is from the last byte of the last memory page to the first byte of the first page.Once the device address with the read/write select bit set to one is clocked in and acknowledged by the EEPROM, the current address data word is serially clocked out. The microcontroller does not respond with an input zero but does generate a following stop condition (refer to Figure 7).RANDOM READ: A random read requires a “dummy�byte write sequence to load in the data word address. Once the device address word and data word address are clocked in and acknowledged by the EEPROM, the microcontroller must generate another start condition. The microcontroller now initiates a current address read by sending a device address with the read/write select bit high. The EEPROM acknowledges the device address and serially clocks out the data word. The microcontroller does not respond with a zero but does generate a following stop condition (refer to Figure .SEQUENTIAL READ: Sequential reads are initiated by either a current address read or a random address read. After the microcontroller receives a data word, it responds with an acknowledge. As long as the EEPROM receives an acknowledge, it will continue to increment the data word address and serially clock out sequential data words. When the memory address limit is r eached, the data wor d address will “roll over�and the sequential read will con- tinue. The sequential read operation is terminated when the microcontroller does not respond with a zero but does generate a following stop condition (refer to Figure 9).Figure 4. Device AddressFigure 5.
