1 Description
The M24C32, M24C64 and M24128 devices are I2C-compatible electrically erasable
programmable memories (EEPROM). They are organized as 4096 × 8 bits, 8192 × 8 bits
and 16384 × 8 bits, respectively.
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 specifications are available at: www.st.com.
Figure 1. Logic diagram
I2C uses a two-wire serial interface, comprising a bi-directional data line and a clock line.
The devices 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 initiated by a Start condition, generated
by the bus master. The Start condition is followed by a device select code and Read/Write
bit (RW) (as described in Ta b l e 3 ), terminated by an acknowledge bit.
When writing data to the memory, the device inserts an acknowledge bit during the 9th 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.

2 Signal description
2.1 Serial Clock (SCL)
This input signal is used to strobe all data in and out of the device. In applications 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 must be connected from Serial Clock
(SCL) to VCC. (Figure 4 indicates how the value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated). In
most applications, though, this method of synchronization is not employed, and so the pull-
up resistor is not necessary, provided that the bus master has a push-pull (rather than open
drain) output.
2.2 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 Serial Data (SDA) to VCC. (Figure 4 indicates how
the value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated).
2.3 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 VCC
or VSS, to establish the device select code as shown in Figure 3. When not connected (left
floating), these inputs are read as low (0,0,0).
Figure 3. Device select code
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. When unconnected, the signal is internally read as VIL, and
Write operations are allowed.
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 Ta bl e 9 and Ta bl e 1 0 ).
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
When the power supply is turned on, VCC rises from VSS to VCC. The VCC rise time must not
vary faster than 1V/µs.
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 (continuous rise of VCC), the device does not respond to any
instruction until VCC has reached the power on reset threshold voltage (this threshold is
lower than the minimum VCC operating voltage defined in Ta b le 9 and Ta bl e 1 0 ). Until VCC
passes over the POR threshold, the device is reset and in Standby Power mode.
In a similar way, during power-down (continuous decay of VCC), as soon as VCC drops below
the POR threshold voltage, the device is reset and stops responding to any instruction sent
to it.
2.6.4 Power-down conditions
During power-down (continuous decay of VCC), the device must be in Standby Power mode
(mode reached after decoding a Stop condition, assuming that there is no internal Write
cycle in progress).

4 Device operation
The device supports the I2C protocol. This is summarized in Figure 5. 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 M24C32, M24C64 and M24128
devices are always slaves in all communications.
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 command. The device
continuously monitors (except during a Write cycle) Serial Data (SDA) and Serial Clock
(SCL) for a Start condition, and will not respond unless one is given.
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 command 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 command
triggers the internal Write cycle.
4.3 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.
4.4 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.

4.5 Memory 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 Ta b l e 3 (on Serial Data (SDA), most significant bit first).
The device select code consists of a 4-bit device type identifier, and a 3-bit Chip Enable
“Address” (E2, E1, E0). To address the memory array, the 4-bit device type identifier is
1010b.
Up to eight memory devices can be connected on a single I2C bus. Each one is given a
unique 3-bit code on the Chip Enable (E0, E1, E2) inputs. 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 (E0, E1, E2) 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
acknowledgment 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.

4.6 Write operations
Following a Start condition the bus master sends a device select code with the Read/Write
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.
Writing to the memory may be inhibited if Write Control (WC) is driven high. Any Write
instruction with Write Control (WC) driven high (during a period of time from the Start
condition until the end of the two address bytes) will not modify the memory contents, and
the accompanying data bytes are not acknowledged, as shown in Figure 7.
Each data byte in the memory has a 16-bit (two byte wide) address. The Most Significant
Byte (Ta b l e 4 ) is sent first, followed by the Least Significant Byte (Ta b le 5 ). Bits b15 to b0
form the address of the byte in memory.
When the bus master generates a Stop condition immediately after the Ack bit (in the “10th
bit” time slot), either at the end of a Byte Write or a Page Write, the internal Write cycle is
triggered. A Stop condition at any other time slot does not trigger the internal Write cycle.
After the Stop condition, the delay tW, and the successful completion of a Write operation,
the device’s internal address counter is incremented automatically, to point to the next byte
address after the last one that was modified.
During the internal Write cycle, Serial Data (SDA) is disabled internally, and the device does
not respond to any requests.
4.7 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.
4.8 Page Write
The Page Write mode allows up to 32 bytes (for the M24C32 and M24C64) or 64 bytes (for
the M24128) to be written in a single Write cycle, provided that they are all located in the
same ’row’ in the memory: that is, the most significant memory address bits (b13-b6 for
M24128, b12-b5 for M24C64, and b11-b5 for M24C32) are the same. If more bytes are sent
than will fit up to the end of the row, a condition known as ‘roll-over’ occurs. This should be
avoided, as data starts to become overwritten in an implementation dependent way.
The bus master sends from 1 to 32 bytes of data (for the M24C32 and M24C64) or 64 bytes
of data (for the M24128), 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. After each byte is transferred, the
internal byte address counter (inside the page) is incremented. The transfer is terminated by
the bus master generating a Stop condition.

Figure 8. Write mode sequences with WC = 0 (data write enabled)
4.9 ECC (error correction code) and Write cycling
The M24128-BFMB6 and M24C64-FMB6 salestypes offer an ECC (error correction code)
logic which compares each 4-byte word with its six associated EEPROM ECC bits. As a
result, if a single bit out of 4 bytes of data happens to be erroneous during a read operation,
the ECC detects it and replaces it by the correct value. The read reliability is therefore much
improved by the use of this feature.
Note however that even if a single byte has to be written, 4 bytes are internally modified
(plus the ECC word), that is, the addressed byte is cycled together with the three other bytes
making up the word. It is therefore recommended to write by packets of 4 bytes in order to
benefit from the larger amount of write cycles.
All M24C32, M24C64 and M24128 devices are qualified at 1 million (1 000 000) write
cycles; the M24128-BFMB6 and M24C64-FMB6 are qualified (at 1 million write cycles),
using a cycling routine that writes to the device by multiples of 4-byte words.

Figure 9. Write cycle polling flowchart using ACK
4.10 Minimizing system delays by polling on ACK
During the internal Write cycle, the device disconnects itself from the bus, and writes a copy
of the data from its internal latches to the memory cells. The maximum Write time (tw) is
shown in Ta bl e 1 7 and Ta b l e 1 8 , 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 9, is:
1. Initial condition: a Write cycle is in progress.
2. Step 1: the bus master issues a Start condition followed by a device select code (the
first byte of the new instruction).
3. Step 2: if the device is busy with the internal Write cycle, no Ack will be 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).

4.11 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’s internal address counter is
incremented by one, to point to the next byte address.
4.12 Random Address Read
A dummy Write is first performed to load the address into this address counter (as shown in
Figure 10) but without sending a Stop condition. Then, the bus master sends another Start
condition, and repeats the device select code, with the Read/Write bit (RW) 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.
4.13 Current Address Read
For the Current Address Read operation, following a Start condition, the bus master only
sends a device select code with the Read/Write bit (RW) 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 10, without acknowledging the Byte.
4.14 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 10.
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.
4.15 Acknowledge in Read mode
For all Read commands, the device waits, after each byte read, for an acknowledgment
during the 9th bit time. If the bus master does not drive Serial Data (SDA) low during this
time, the device terminates the data transfer and switches to its Standby mode.
