SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
These I²C-compatible electrically erasable pro-
grammable memory (EEPROM) devices are orga-
nized as 2048/1024/512/256/128 x 8 (M24C16,
M24C08, M24C04, M24C02 and M24C01).
In order to meet environmental requirements, ST
offers these devices in ECOPACK® packages.
ECOPACK® packages are Lead-free and RoHS
compliant.
ECOPACK is an ST trademark. ECOPACK speci-
fications are available at: www.st.com.

scribed in
Table 3.),
terminated by an acknowl-
edge bit.
When writing data to the memory, the device in-
serts an acknowledge bit during the 9
th
bit time,
following the bus master’s 8-bit transmission.
When data is read by the bus master, the bus
master acknowledges the receipt of the data byte
in the same way. Data transfers are terminated by
a Stop condition after an Ack for Write, and after a
NoAck for Read.

I²C uses a two-wire serial interface, comprising a
bi-directional data line and a clock line. The devic-
es carry a built-in 4-bit Device Type Identifier code
(1010) in accordance with the I²C bus definition.
The device behaves as a slave in the I²C protocol,
with all memory operations synchronized by the
serial clock. Read and Write operations are initiat-
ed by a Start condition, generated by the bus mas-
ter. The Start condition is followed by a Device
Select Code and Read/Write bit (RW) (as de-
Figure 3. 8-Pin Package Connections (Top View)
Device internal reset
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
CC
),
the device will not respond to any instructions until
the V
CC
has reached the Power On Reset
threshold voltage (this threshold is lower than the
V
CC
min. operating voltage defined in
DC and AC
PARAMETERS).
When V
CC
has passed over the
POR threshold, the device is reset and is in
Standby
Power
mode.
At
Power-down
(continuous decay of V
CC
), as soon as V
CC
drops
from the normal operating voltage to below the
Power On Reset threshold voltage, the device
stops responding to any instruction sent to it.
Prior to selecting and issuing instructions to the
memory, a valid and stable V
CC
voltage must be
applied. 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
W
).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
Serial Clock (SCL).
This input signal is used to
strobe all data in and out of the device. In applica-
tions where this signal is used by slave devices to
synchronize the bus to a slower clock, the bus
master must have an open drain output, and a
pull-up resistor can be connected from Serial
Clock (SCL) to V
CC
. (Figure
5.
indicates how the
value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated). In
most applications, though, this method of synchro-
nization is not employed, and so the pull-up resis-
tor is not necessary, provided that the bus master
has a push-pull (rather than open drain) output.
Serial Data (SDA).
This bi-directional signal is
used to transfer data in or out of the device. It is an
open drain output that may be wire-OR’ed with
other open drain or open collector signals on the
bus. A pull up resistor must be connected from Se-
rial Data (SDA) to V
CC
. (Figure
5.
indicates how
the value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated).
Chip Enable (E0, E1, E2).
These input signals
are used to set the value that is to be looked for on
the three least significant bits (b3, b2, b1) of the 7-
bit Device Select Code. These inputs must be tied
to V
CC
or V
SS
, to establish the Device Select Code
as shown in
Figure 4.

Write Control (WC).
This input signal is useful
for protecting the entire contents of the memory
from inadvertent write operations. Write opera-
tions are disabled to the entire memory array when
Write Control (WC) is driven High. When uncon-
nected, the signal is internally read as V
IL
, and
Write operations are allowed.
When Write Control (WC) is driven High, Device
Select and Address bytes are acknowledged,
Data bytes are not acknowledged.
