DESCRIPTION
The CAT25C11/03/05/09/17 is a 1K/2K/4K/8K/16K-Bit
SPI Serial CMOS EEPROM internally organized as
128x8/256x8/512x8/1024x8/2048x8 bits. Catalyst’s
advanced CMOS Technology substantially reduces
device power requirements. The CAT25C11/03/05
features a 16-byte page write buffer. The 25C09/17
features a 32-byte page write buffer.The device operates
via the SPI bus serial interface and is enabled though a
Chip Select (CS). In addition to the Chip Select, the clock

CAT25C11/03/05/09/17
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CAT25C11/03/05/09/17 supports the SPI bus data
transmission protocol. The synchronous Serial Periph-
eral Interface (SPI) helps the CAT25C11/03/05/09/17 to
interface directly with many of today’s popular
microcontrollers. The CAT25C11/03/05/09/17 contains
an 8-bit instruction register. (The instruction set and the
operation codes are detailed in the instruction set table)
After the device is selected with
CS
going low, the first
byte will be received. The part is accessed via the SI pin,
with data being clocked in on the rising edge of SCK.
The first byte contains one of the six op-codes that define
Figure 1. Sychronous Data Timing
the operation to be performed.
PIN DESCRIPTION
SI:
Serial Input
SI is the serial data input pin. This pin is used to input all
opcodes, byte addresses, and data to be written to the
25C11/03/05/09/17.Input data is latched on the rising
edge of the serial clock for SPI modes (0, 0 & 1, 1).
SO:
Serial Output
SO is the serial data output pin. This pin is used to transfer
data out of the 25C11/03/05/09/17. During a read cycle,
data is shifted out on the falling edge of the serial clock for

and forces the devices into a Standby Mode (unless an
internal write operation is underway) The CAT25C11/03/
05/09/17 draws ZERO current in the Standby mode. A
high to low transition on
CS
is required prior to any
sequence being initiated. A low to high transition on
CS
after a valid write sequence is what initiates an internal
write cycle.
WP
Write Protect
WP:
WP
is the Write Protect pin. The Write Protect pin will allow
normal read/write operations when held high. When
WP
is
tied low and the WPEN bit in the status register is set to "1",
all write operations to the status register are inhibited.
WP
going low while
CS
is still low will interrupt a write to the
status register. If the internal write cycle as already been
initiated,
WP
going low will have no effect on any write

SCK:
Serial Clock
SCK is the serial clock pin. This pin is used to synchronize
the communication between the microcontroller and the
25C11/03/05/09/17. Opcodes, byte addresses, or data
present on the SI pin are latched on the rising edge of the
SCK. Data on the SO pin is updated on the falling edge of
the SCK for SPI modes (0,0 & 1,1).
