1Description
The M24128 is a 128-Kbit I2C-compatible EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable memory) organized as
16 K × 8 bits.
The M24128-BW can operate with a supply voltage from 2.5 V to 5.5 V, the M24128-BR can operate with a supply
voltage from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, and the M24128-BF and M24128-DF can operate with a supply voltage from 1.7 V to
5.5 V (the M24128-BF and the M24128-DF can also operate down to 1.6 V, under some restricting conditions). All
these devices operate with a clock frequency of 1 MHz (or less), over an ambient temperature range of –40 °C /
+85 °C. The M24128-D offers an additional page, named the identification page (64 byte). The identification page
can be used to store sensitive application parameters which can be (later) permanently locked in read-only mode.

2Signal description
2.1 Serial clock (SCL)
The signal applied on the SCL input is used to strobe the data available on SDA(in) and to output the data on
SDA(out).
2.2 Serial data (SDA)
SDA is an input/output used to transfer data in or data out of the device. SDA(out) 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 serial data (SDA) to VCC (Figure 13 indicates how to calculate the value of the pull-up resistor).
2.3 Chip enable (E2, E1, E0)
(E2,E1,E0) 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 (see Table 2). These inputs must be tied to VCC or VSS, as shown in Figure 5.
When not connected (left floating), these inputs are read as low (0).

2.4 Write control (WC)
This input signal is useful for protecting the entire contents of the memory from inadvertent write operations. Write
operations are disabled to the entire memory array when write control (WC) is driven high. Write operations are
enabled when write control (WC) is either driven low or left floating.
When write control (WC) is driven high, device select and address bytes are acknowledged, data bytes are not
acknowledged.
2.5 VSS (ground)
VSS is the reference for the VCC supply voltage.

2.6 Supply voltage (VCC)
2.6.1 Operating supply voltage (VCC)
Prior to selecting the memory and issuing instructions to it, a valid and stable VCC voltage within the specified
[VCC(min), VCC(max)] range must be applied (see Operating conditions in Section 8 DC and AC parameters). In
order to secure a stable DC supply voltage, it is recommended to decouple the VCC line with a suitable capacitor
(usually of the order of 10 nF to 100 nF) close to the VCC/VSS package pins.
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 (tW).
2.6.2 Power-up conditions
The VCC voltage has to rise continuously from 0 V up to the minimum VCC operating voltage (see Operating
conditions in Section 8 DC and AC parameters).
2.6.3 Device reset
In order to prevent inadvertent write operations during power-up, a power-on-reset (POR) circuit is included.
At power-up, the device does not respond to any instruction until VCC has reached the internal reset
threshold voltage. This threshold is lower than the minimum VCC operating voltage (see Operating conditions
in Section 8 DC and AC parameters). When VCC passes over the POR threshold, the device is reset and enters
the standby power mode; however, the device must not be accessed until VCC reaches a valid and stable DC
voltage within the specified [VCC(min), VCC(max)] range (see Operating conditions in Section 8 DC and AC
parameters).
In a similar way, during power-down (continuous decrease in VCC), the device must not be accessed when VCC
drops below VCC(min). When VCC drops below the power-on-reset threshold voltage, the device stops responding
to any instruction sent to it.
2.6.4 Power-down conditions
During power-down (continuous decrease in VCC), the device must be in the standby power mode (mode reached
after decoding a stop condition, assuming that there is no internal write cycle in progress).

4Device operation
The device supports the I2C protocol. This is summarized in Figure 7. Any device that sends data on to the bus
is defined to be a transmitter, and any device that reads the data to be a receiver. The device that controls the
data transfer is known as the bus master, and the other as the slave device. A data transfer can only be initiated
by the bus master, which will also provide the serial clock for synchronization. The device is always a slave in all
communications.

Device operation
DS6639 - Rev 31 page 7/46
4.1 Start condition
Start is identified by a falling edge of serial data (SDA) while serial clock (SCL) is stable in the high state. A start
condition must precede any data transfer instruction. The device continuously monitors (except during a write
cycle) serial data (SDA) and serial clock (SCL) for a start condition.
4.2 Stop condition
Stop is identified by a rising edge of serial data (SDA) while serial clock (SCL) is stable and driven high. A stop
condition terminates communication between the device and the bus master. A read instruction that is followed by
NoAck can be followed by a stop condition to force the device into the standby mode.
A stop condition at the end of a write instruction triggers the internal write cycle.
4.3 Data input
During data input, the device samples serial data (SDA) on the rising edge of serial clock (SCL). For correct
device operation, serial data (SDA) must be stable during the rising edge of serial clock (SCL), and the serial data
(SDA) signal must change only when serial clock (SCL) is driven low.
4.4 Acknowledge bit (ACK)
The acknowledge bit is used to indicate a successful byte transfer. The bus transmitter, whether it be bus master
or slave device, releases serial data (SDA) after sending eight bits of data. During the 9th clock pulse period, the
receiver pulls serial data (SDA) low to acknowledge the receipt of the eight data bits.

Start condition
DS6639 - Rev 31 page 8/46
4.5 Device addressing
To start communication between the bus master and the slave device, the bus master must initiate a Start
condition. Following this, the bus master sends the device select code, shown in Table 2 (most significant bit first).
Table 2. Device select code
Device type identifier(1) Chip Enable address(2) RW
b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
Device select code when addressing the memory array 1 0 1 0 E2 E1 E0 RW
Device select code when accessing the Identification page 1 0 1 1 E2 E1 E0 RW
1. The most significant bit, b7, is sent first.
2. E0, E1 and E2 are compared with the value read on input pins E0, E1 and E2.
When the device select code is received, the device only responds if the chip enable address is the same as the
value on the chip enable (E2, E1, E0) inputs.
The 8th bit is the Read/Write bit (RW). This bit is set to 1 for read and 0 for write operations.
If a match occurs on the device select code, the corresponding device gives an acknowledgement on serial data
(SDA) during the 9th bit time. If the device does not match the device select code, it deselects itself from the bus,
and goes into standby mode.

DS6639 - Rev 31 page 9/46
5Instructions
5.1 Write operations
Following a start condition the bus master sends a device select code with the RW bit (RW) reset to 0. The device
acknowledges this, as shown in Figure 8, and waits for two address bytes. The device responds to each address
byte with an acknowledge bit, and then waits for the data byte.
Table 3. Most significant address byte
A15 A14 A13 A12 A11 A10 A9 A8
Table 4. Least significant address byte
A7 A6 A5 A4 A3 A2 A1 A0
When the bus master generates a stop condition immediately after a data byte Ack bit (in the “10th bit” time slot),
either at the end of a byte write or a page write, the internal write cycle tW is triggered. A stop condition at any
other time slot does not trigger the internal write cycle.
After the stop condition and the successful completion of an internal write cycle (tW), the device internal address
counter is automatically incremented to point to the next byte after the last modified byte.
During the internal write cycle, serial data (SDA) is disabled internally, and the device does not respond to any
requests.
If the write control input (WC) is driven high, the write instruction is not executed and the accompanying data
bytes are not acknowledged, as shown in Figure 9.

Instructions
DS6639 - Rev 31 page 10/46
5.1.1 Byte write
After the device select code and the address bytes, the bus master sends one data byte. If the addressed location
is write-protected, by write control (WC) being driven high, the device replies with NoAck, and the location is not
modified. If, instead, the addressed location is not write-protected, the device replies with Ack. The bus master
terminates the transfer by generating a stop condition, as shown in Figure 8.

Write operations
DS6639 - Rev 31 page 11/46
5.1.2 Page write
The page write mode allows up to 64 byte to be written in a single write cycle, provided that they are all located
in the same page in the memory: that is, the most significant memory address bits, A15/A6, are the same. If more
bytes are sent than will fit up to the end of the page, a “roll-over” occurs, i.e. the bytes exceeding the page end
are written on the same page, from location 0.
The bus master sends from 1 to 64 byte of data, each of which is acknowledged by the device if write control
(WC) is low. If write control (WC) is high, the contents of the addressed memory location are not modified, and
each data byte is followed by a NoAck, as shown in Figure 9. After each transferred byte, the internal page
address counter is incremented.
The transfer is terminated by the bus master generating a stop condition.

5.1.3 Write identification page (M24128-D only)
The identification page (64 byte) is an additional page which can be written and (later) permanently locked in
read-only mode. It is written by issuing the write identification page instruction. This instruction uses the same
protocol and format as page write (into memory array), except for the following differences:
Device type identifier = 1011b
MSB address bits A15/A6 are don't care except for address bit A10 which must be ‘0’. LSB address bits
A5/A0 define the byte address inside the Identification page.
If the identification page is locked, the data bytes transferred during the write identification page instruction are not
acknowledged (NoAck).
5.1.4 Lock identification page (M24128-D only)
The lock identification page instruction (Lock ID) permanently locks the identification page in read-only mode. The
lock ID instruction is similar to byte write (into memory array) with the following specific conditions:
Device type identifier = 1011b
Address bit A10 must be ‘1’; all other address bits are don't care
The data byte must be equal to the binary value xxxx xx1x, where x is don't care
5.1.5 ECC (error correction code) and write cycling
The ECC is offered in devices identified with process letter A or K, all other devices (identified with a different
process letter) do not embed the ECC logic.
The error correction code (ECC) is an internal logic function which is transparent for the I2C communication
protocol.
The ECC logic is implemented on each group of four EEPROM bytes (A group of four bytes is located at
addresses [4*N, 4*N+1, 4*N+2, 4*N+3], where N is an integer).
Even if the ECC function is performed on groups of four bytes, a single byte can be written/cycled independently.
In this case, the ECC function also writes/cycles the three other bytes located in the same group (A group of
four bytes is located at addresses [4*N, 4*N+1, 4*N+2, 4*N+3], where N is an integer). As a consequence, the
maximum cycling budget is defined at group level and the cycling can be distributed over the 4 bytes of the group:
the sum of the cycles seen by byte0, byte1, byte2 and byte3 of the same group must remain below the maximum
value defined Table 11.

5.1.6 Minimizing write delays by polling on ACK
The maximum write time (tw) is shown in AC characteristics tables in Section 8 DC and AC parameters, but the
typical time is shorter. To make use of this, a polling sequence can be used by the bus master.
The sequence, as shown in Figure 10, is:
Initial condition: a write cycle is in progress.
Step 1: the bus master issues a Start condition followed by a device select code (the first byte of the new
instruction).
Step 2: if the device is busy with the internal write cycle, no Ack is returned and the bus master goes back
to step 1. If the device has terminated the internal write cycle, it responds with an Ack, indicating that the
device is ready to receive the second part of the instruction (the first byte of this instruction having been sent
during Step 1).

DS6639 - Rev 31 page 14/46
5.2 Read operations
Read operations are performed independently of the state of the write control (WC) signal.
After the successful completion of a read operation, the device internal address counter is incremented by one, to
point to the next byte address.
For the read instructions, after each byte read (data out), the device waits for an acknowledgement (data in)
during the 9th bit time. If the bus master does not acknowledge during this 9th time, the device terminates the data
transfer and switches to its standby mode.

Read operations
DS6639 - Rev 31 page 15/46
5.2.1 Random address read
A dummy write is first performed to load the address into this address counter (as shown in Figure 11) but without
sending a stop condition. Then, the bus master sends another start condition, and repeats the device select code,
with the RW bit set to 1. The device acknowledges this, and outputs the contents of the addressed byte. The bus
master must not acknowledge the byte, and terminates the transfer with a stop condition.
5.2.2 Current address read
For the current address read operation, following a start condition, the bus master only sends a device select
code with the RW bit set to 1. The device acknowledges this, and outputs the byte addressed by the internal
address counter. The counter is then incremented. The bus master terminates the transfer with a stop condition,
as shown in Figure 11, without acknowledging the byte.
Note that the address counter value is defined by instructions accessing either the memory or the identification
page. When accessing the Identification page, the address counter value is loaded with the byte location in the
identification page, therefore the next current address read in the memory uses this new address counter value.
When accessing the memory, it is safer to always use the random address read instruction (this instruction loads
the address counter with the byte location to read in the memory, see Section 5.2.1 Random address read)
instead of the current address Read instruction.
5.2.3 Sequential read
This operation can be used after a current address read or a random address read. The bus master does
acknowledge the data byte output, and sends additional clock pulses so that the device continues to output the
next byte in sequence. To terminate the stream of bytes, the bus master must not acknowledge the last byte, and
must generate a Stop condition, as shown in Figure 11.
The output data comes from consecutive addresses, with the internal address counter automatically incremented
after each byte output. After the last memory address, the address counter “rolls-over”, and the device continues
to output data from memory address 00h.
5.3 Read identification page (M24128-D only)
The identification page (64 bytes) is an additional page which can be written and (later) permanently locked in
Read-only mode.
The identification page can be read by issuing an read identification page instruction. This instruction uses the
same protocol and format as the random address read (from memory array) with device type identifier defined as
1011b. The MSB address bits A15/A6 are don't care, the LSB address bits A5/A0 define the byte address inside
the identification page. The number of bytes to read in the ID page must not exceed the page boundary (e.g.:
when reading the identification page from location 10d, the number of bytes should be less than or equal to 54, as
the ID page boundary is 64 bytes).
5.4 Read the lock status (M24128-D only)
The locked/unlocked status of the Identification page can be checked by transmitting a specific truncated
command [identification page write instruction + one data byte] to the device. The device returns an acknowledge
bit if the Identification page is unlocked, otherwise a NoAck bit if the identification page is locked.
Right after this, it is recommended to transmit to the device a start condition followed by a stop condition, so that:
Start: the truncated command is not executed because the start condition resets the device internal logic,
Stop: the device is then set back into standby mode by the stop condition.
