Pin Descriptions and Pinouts Table 1-1. Pin Descriptions Pin Number Pin Symbol 1, 2, 3 NC 4 GND Asserted State Pin Type No Connect: The NC pins are not bonded to a die pad. These pins can be connected to GND or left floating. -- -- Ground: The ground reference for the power supply. GND should be connected to the system ground. -- Power -- Input/ Output -- Input High Input -- Power Pin Name and Functional Description Serial Data: The SDA pin is an open-drain bidirectional input/output pin used to serially transfer data to and from the device. 5 SDA 6 The SDA pin must be pulled-high using an external pull-up resistor (not to exceed 10K in value) and may be wire-ORed with any number of other open-drain or open-collector pins from other devices on the same bus. Serial Clock: The SCL pin is used to provide a clock to the device and to control the flow of data to and from the device. Command and input data present on the SDA pin is always latched in on the rising edge of SCL, while output data on the SDA pin is clocked out on the falling edge of SCL. SCL The SCL pin must either be forced high when the serial bus is idle or pulled-high using an external pull-up resistor. 7 Write Protect: Connecting the WP pin to GND will ensure normal Write operations. When the WP pin is connected to VCC, all write operations to the memory are inhibited. WP Refer to Note 1 for the behavior of the pin when not connected. 8 Note: Device Power Supply: The VCC pin is used to supply the source voltage to the device. Operations at invalid VCC voltages may produce spurious results and should not be attempted. VCC 1. If the WP pin is not driven, it is internally pulled down to GND. In order to operate in a wide variety of application environments, the pull-down mechanism is intentionally designed to be somewhat strong. Once these pins are biased above the CMOS input buffer's trip point (~0.5 x VCC), the pull-down mechanism disengages. Atmel recommends connecting these pins to a known state whenever possible. Since the WLCSP has no WP pin, the write protection feature is not offered on the WLCSP. 8-lead SOIC NC 1 8 VCC NC 2 7 WP NC 3 6 SCL GND 4 5 SDA NC NC NC GND 1 2 3 4 VCC WP SCL SDA 8 7 6 5 NC 1 8 VCC NC 1 8 VCC NC 2 7 WP NC 2 7 WP NC 3 6 SCL NC 3 6 SCL GND 4 5 SDA GND 4 5 SDA Top View Top View 5-lead SOT23 SCL 1 GND 2 SDA 3 5 4 Top View (1) WP VCC 8-lead PDIP 8-pad UDFN 8-lead TSSOP Top View 8-ball VFBGA NC 1 8 VCC NC 2 7 WP NC 3 6 SCL GND 4 5 SDA Top View Top View 4-ball WLCSP (1) VCC GND SCL SDA Top View Note: Package drawings are not to scale.

Device Operation and Communication The AT24C16D operates as a slave device and utilizes a simple I2C-compatible 2-Wire digital serial interface to communicate with a host controller, commonly referred to as the bus Master. The Master initiates and controls all Read and Write operations to the slave devices on the serial bus, and both the Master and the slave devices can transmit and receive data on the bus. The serial interface is comprised of just two signal lines: Serial Clock (SCL) and Serial Data (SDA). The SCL pin is used to receive the clock signal from the Master, while the bidirectional SDA pin is used to receive command and data information from the Master as well as to send data back to the Master. Data is always latched into the AT24C16D on the rising edge of SCL and always output from the device on the falling edge of SCL. Both the SCL and SDA pin incorporate integrated spike suppression filters and Schmitt Triggers to minimize the effects of input spikes and bus noise. All command and data information is transferred with the Most-Significant Bit (MSB) first. During bus communication, one data bit is transmitted every clock cycle, and after eight bits (one byte) of data have been transferred, the receiving device must respond with either an Acknowledge (ACK) or a No-acknowledge (NACK) response bit during a ninth clock cycle (ACK/NACK clock cycle) generated by the Master. Therefore, nine clock cycles are required for every one byte of data transferred. There are no unused clock cycles during any Read or Write operation, so there must not be any interruptions or breaks in the data stream during each data byte transfer and ACK or NACK clock cycle. During data transfers, data on the SDA pin must only change while SCL is low, and the data must remain stable while SCL is high. If data on the SDA pin changes while SCL is high, then either a Start or a Stop condition will occur. Start and Stop conditions are used to initiate and end all serial bus communication between the Master and the slave devices. The number of data bytes transferred between a Start and a Stop condition is not limited and is determined by the Master. In order for the serial bus to be idle, both the SCL and SDA pins must be in the logic-high state at the same time. 3.1 Clock and Data Transition Requirements The SDA pin is an open drain terminal and therefore must be pulled high with an external pull-up resistor. Data on the SDA pin may change only during SCL low time periods. Data changes during SCL high periods will indicate a Start or Stop condition as defined below. 3.2 Start and Stop Conditions 3.2.1 Start Condition A Start condition occurs when there is a high-to-low transition on the SDA pin while the SCL pin is at a stable Logic 1 state and will bring the device out of standby mode. The Master uses a Start condition to initiate any data transfer sequence; therefore, every command must begin with a Start condition. The device will continuously monitor the SDA and SCL pins for a Start condition but will not respond unless one is detected. Please refer to Figure 3-1 for more details. 3.2.2 Stop Condition A Stop condition occurs when there is a low-to-high transition on the SDA pin while the SCL pin is stable in the Logic 1 state. The Master can use the Stop condition to end a data transfer sequence with the AT24C16D which will subsequently return to standby mode. The Master can also utilize a repeated Start condition instead of a Stop condition to end the current data transfer if the Master will perform another operation. Please refer to Figure 3-1 for more details. 4 AT24C16D [DATASHEET] Atmel-8906E-SEEPROM-AT24C16D-Datasheet_122016 3.3 Acknowledge and No-Acknowledge After every byte of data is received, the receiving device must confirm to the Master that it has successfully received the data byte by responding with what is known as an Acknowledge (ACK). An ACK is accomplished by the transmitting device first releasing the SDA line at the falling edge of the eighth clock cycle followed by the receiving device responding with a Logic 0 during the entire high period of the ninth clock cycle. When the AT24C16D is transmitting data to the Master, the Master can indicate that it is done receiving data and wants to end the operation by sending a Logic 1 response to the AT24C16D instead of an ACK response during the ninth clock cycle. This is known as a No-Acknowledge (NACK) and is accomplished by the Master sending a Logic 1 during the ninth clock cycle, at which point the AT24C16D will release the SDA line so the Master can then generate a Stop condition. The transmitting device, which can be the bus Master or the Serial EEPROM, must release the SDA line at the falling edge of the eighth clock cycle to allow the receiving device to drive the SDA line to a Logic 0 to ACK the previous 8-bit word. The receiving device must release the SDA line at the end of the ninth clock cycle to allow the transmitter to continue sending new data. A timing diagram has been provided in Figure 3-1 to better illustrate these requirements. Figure 3-1. Start Condition, Data Transitions, Stop Condition, and Acknowledge SCL SDA Must Be Stable SDA Must Be Stable 1 2 Acknowledge Window 8 9 Stop Condition SDA Acknowledge Valid Start Condition SDA Change Allowed 3.4 SDA Change Allowed The transmitting device (Master or Slave) must release the SDA line at this point to allow the receiving device (Master or Slave) to drive the SDA line low to ACK the previous 8-bit word. The receiver (Master or Slave) must release the SDA line at this point to allow the transmitter to continue sending new data. Standby Mode The AT24C16D features a low power standby mode which is enabled when any one of the following occurs: A valid power-up sequence is performed (see Section 8.5). A Stop condition is received by the device unless it initiates an internal write cycle (see Section 5.). At the completion of an internal write cycle (see Section 5.). An unsuccessful match of the device type identifier or hardware address in the Device Address byte occurs (see Section 4.1). The bus Master does not ACK the receipt of data read out from the device; instead it sends a NACK response. (see Section 6.). AT24C16D [DATASHEET] Atmel-8906E-SEEPROM-AT24C16D-Datasheet_122016 5 3.5 Software Reset After an interruption in protocol, power loss, or system reset, any 2-Wire part can be protocol reset by following these steps: 1. Create a Start condition (if possible). 2. 3. Clock nine cycles. Create another Start condition followed by a Stop condition as seen in Figure 3-2. The device should be ready for the next communication after above steps have been completed. In the event that the device is still non-responsive or remains active on the SDA bus, a power cycle must be used to reset the device (see Section 8.5.1, "Device Reset"). Figure 3-2.

Memory Organization The AT24C16D is internally organized as 128 pages of 16 bytes each. 4.1 Device Addressing Accessing the device requires an 8-bit Device Address word following a Start condition to enable the device for a Read or Write operation. Since multiple slave devices can reside on the serial bus each slave device must have its own unique address so the Master can access each device independently. The most significant four bits of the Device Address word is referred to as the device type identifier. The device type identifier `1010' (Ah) is required in bits 7 through 4 of the Device Address byte (see Table 4-1). Following the four bit device type identifier in the bit 3, bit 2, and bit 1 position of the Device Address byte are bits A10, A9, and A8 which are the three most significant bits of the memory array word address. The eighth bit (bit 0) of the Device Address byte is the Read/Write operation select bit. A Read operation is initiated if this bit is high, and a Write operation is initiated if this bit is low. Please refer to Table 4-1 to review these bit positions. Upon the successful comparison of the Device Address byte, the EEPROM will return an ACK. If a valid comparison is not made, the device will NACK and return to a standby state. Table 4-1.

The Word Address byte consists of the remaining eight bits of the 11-bit memory array word address, and is used to specify which byte location in the EEPROM to start reading or writing. Please refer to Table 4-2 to review these bit positions. Table 4-2.

The AC timing characteristics and specifications are outlined in Section 8.4 "AC Characteristics" on page 14. AT24C16D [DATASHEET] Atmel-8906E-SEEPROM-AT24C16D-Datasheet_122016 7 5. Write Operations All Write operations for the AT24C16D begin with the Master sending a Start condition, followed by a Device Address byte with the R/W bit set to `0', and then by the Word Address byte. The data value(s) to be written to the device immediately follow the Word Address byte. 5.1 Byte Write The AT24C16D supports the writing of single 8-bit bytes. Selecting a data word in the AT24C16D requires an 11-bit word address. Upon receipt of the proper Device Address and Word Address bytes, the EEPROM will send an Acknowledge. The device will then be ready to receive the first 8-bit data word. Following receipt of the 8-bit data word, the EEPROM will respond with an ACK. The addressing device, such as a bus Master, must then terminate the Write operation with a Stop condition. At that time, the EEPROM will enter an internally self-timed write cycle which will be completed within tWR while the data word is being programmed into the nonvolatile EEPROM. All inputs are disabled during this write cycle, and the EEPROM will not respond until the Write is complete. Figure 5-1. Byte Write 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 D2 D1 D0 0 SCL Device Address Byte SDA 1 0 1 0 A10 A9 A8 0 0 MSB Start by Master 5.2 Data Word Word Address Byte A7 A6 A5 A4 A3 A2 A1 A0 0 ACK from Slave D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 MSB MSB ACK from Slave ACK from Slave Stop by Master Page Write A Page Write operation allows up to 16 bytes to be written in the same write cycle, provided all bytes are in the same row of the memory array (where address bits A10 through A4 are the same). Partial Page Writes of less than 16 bytes are also allowed. A Page Write is initiated the same way as a Byte Write, but the bus Master does not send a Stop condition after the first data word is clocked in. Instead, after the EEPROM acknowledges receipt of the first data word, the bus Master can transmit up to fifteen additional data words. The EEPROM will respond with an ACK after each data word is received. Once all data to be written has been sent to the device, the bus Master must issue a Stop condition (see Figure 5-2) at which time the internally self-timed write cycle will begin. The lower four bits of the word address are internally incremented following the receipt of each data word. The higher order address bits are not incremented and retain the memory page row location. Page Write operations are limited to writing bytes within a single physical page, regardless of the number of bytes actually being written. When the incremented word address reaches the page boundary, the address counter will roll-over to the beginning of the same page. Nevertheless, creating a roll-over event should be avoided as previously loaded data in the page could become unintentionally altered. 8 AT24C16D [DATASHEET] Atmel-8906E-SEEPROM-AT24C16D-Datasheet_122016 Figure 5-2.

This method allows the application to know immediately when the Serial EEPROM write cycle has completed, so a subsequent operation can be started. Once the internally self-timed write cycle has started, an Acknowledge Polling routine can be initiated. This involves repeatedly sending a Start condition followed by a valid Device Address byte with the R/W bit set at Logic 0. The device will not respond with an ACK while the write cycle is ongoing. Once the internal write cycle has completed, the EEPROM will respond with an ACK, allowing a new Read or Write operation to be immediately initiated. A flow chart has been included below in Figure 5-3 to better illustrate this technique. Figure 5-3. Acknowledge Polling Flow Chart Send any Write protocol. Send Stop condition to initiate the write cycle. Send Start condition followed by a valid Device Address byte with R/W = 0. Did the device ACK? YES Proceed to next Read or Write operation. NO 5.4 Write Cycle Timing The length of the self-timed write cycle (tWR) is defined as the amount of time from the Stop condition that begins the internal Write operation to the Start condition of the first Device Address byte sent to the AT24C16D that it subsequently responds to with an ACK. Figure 5-4 has been included to show this measurement. During the internally self-timed write cycle any attempts to read from or write to the memory array will not be processed.

Write Cycle Timing SCL 8 9 9 ACK ACK Data Word n SDA D0 tWR Stop Condition 5.5 Start Condition First Acknowledge from the device to a valid device address sequence after write cycle is initiated. The minumum tWR can only be determined through the use of an ACK Polling routine. Stop Condition Write Protection The AT24C16D utilizes a hardware data protection scheme that allows the user to write protect the entire memory contents when the WP pin is at VCC (or a valid VIH). No write protection will be set if the WP pin is at GND or left floating. Since the WLCSP has no WP pin, the write protection feature is not offered on the WLCSP. Table 5-1. AT24C16D Write Protect Behavior WP Pin Voltage Part of the Array Protected VCC Full Array GND None -- Write Protection Not Enabled The status of the WP pin is sampled at the Stop condition for every Byte Write or Page Write command prior to the start of an internally self-timed Write operation. Changing the WP pin state after the Stop condition has been sent will not alter or interrupt the execution of the write cycle. The WP pin state must be valid with respect to the associated setup (tSU.WP) and hold (tHD.WP) timing as shown in the Figure 5-5 below. The WP setup time is the amount of time that the WP state must be stable before the Stop condition is issued. The WP hold time is the amount of time after the Stop condition that the WP must remain stable. If an attempt is made to write to the device while the WP pin has been asserted, the device will acknowledge the Device Address, Word Address, and Data bytes but no write cycle will occur when the Stop condition is issued, and the device will immediately be ready to accept a new Read or Write command.

Read Operations Read operations are initiated the same way as Write operations with the exception that the Read/Write Select bit in the Device Address word must be a Logic 1. There are three Read operations: 6.1 Current Address Read Random Address Read Sequential Read Current Address Read The internal data word address counter maintains the last address accessed during the last read or write operation, incremented by one. This address stays valid between operations as long as the VCC is maintained to the part. The address roll-over during read is from the last byte of the last page to the first byte of the first page of the memory. A Current Address Read operation will output data according to the location of the internal data word address counter. This is initiated with a Start condition, followed by a valid Device Address byte with the R/W bit set to Logic 1. The device will ACK this sequence and the current address data word is serially clocked out on the SDA line. All types of Read operations will be terminated if the bus Master does not respond with an ACK (it NACKs) during the ninth clock cycle, which will force the device into standby mode. After the NACK response, the Master may send a Stop condition to complete the protocol, or it can send a Start condition to begin the next sequence. Figure 6-1.

This is known as a "dummy write" sequence; however, the Data Byte and the Stop condition of the Byte Write must be omitted to prevent the part from entering an internal write cycle. Once the Device Address and Word Address are clocked in and acknowledged by the EEPROM, the bus Master must generate another Start condition. The bus Master now initiates a Current Address Read by sending a Start condition, followed by a valid Device Address byte with the R/W bit set to Logic 1. In this second Device Address byte, the bit positions usually reserved for the most significant bits of the Word Address (bit 3, 2, and 1) are don't care bits since the address that will be read from is determined only by what was sent in the dummy write portion of the sequence. The EEPROM will ACK the Device Address and serially clock out the data word on the SDA line. All types of Read operations will be terminated if the bus Master does not respond with an ACK (it NACKs) during the ninth clock cycle, which will force the device into standby mode. After the NACK response, the Master may send a Stop condition to complete the protocol, or it can send a Start condition to begin the next sequence.

When the maximum memory address is reached, the data word address will roll-over and the sequential read will continue from the beginning of the memory array. All types of Read operations will be terminated if the bus Master does not respond with an ACK (it NACKs) during the ninth clock cycle, which will force the device into standby mode. After the NACK response, the Master may send a Stop condition to complete the protocol, or it can send a Start condition to begin the next sequence. Figure 6-3.

Upon power-up, the device will not respond to any commands until the VCC level crosses the internal voltage threshold (VPOR) that brings the device out of reset and into standby mode. The system designer must ensure the instructions are not sent to the device until the VCC supply has reached a stable value greater than or equal to the minimum VCC level. Additionally, once the VCC is greater than or equal to the minimum VCC level, the bus Master must wait at least tPUP before sending the first command to the device. See Table 8-4 for the values associated with these power-up parameters. Table 8-4. Power-up Conditions(1) Symbol Parameter Min tPUP Time required after VCC is stable before the device can accept commands. 100 VPOR Power-On Reset Threshold Voltage. tPOFF Minimum time at VCC = 0V between power cycles. Note: 1. Max Units s 1.5 V 1 ms These parameters are characterized but they are not 100% tested in production. If an event occurs in the system where the VCC level supplied to the AT24C16D drops below the maximum VPOR level specified, it is recommended that a full power cycle sequence be performed by first driving the VCC pin to GND, waiting at least the minimum tPOFF time, and then performing a new power-up sequence in compliance with the requirements defined in this section. 8.6 Pin Capacitance Table 8-5.
