PIN CONFIGURATION
DIP Package (P, L)
SOIC Package (J,W)
using Catalyst’s advanced CMOS EEPROM floating gate technology. The devices are designed to endure 1,000,000 program/erase cycles and has a data reten- tion of 100 years. The devices are available in 8-pin DIP, 8-pin SOIC, 8-pin TSSOP and 8-pad TDFN packages.
DESCRIPTION
The CAT93C56/57 are 2K-bit Serial EEPROM memory devices which are configured as either registers of 16 bits (ORG pin at V
CC
) or 8 bits (ORG pin at GND). Each
register can be written (or read) serially by using the DI (or DO) pin. The CAT93C56/57 are manufactured

FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL
Note: When the ORG pin is connected to VCC, the x16 organiza- tion is selected. When it is connected to ground, the x8 pin is selected. If the ORG pin is left unconnected, then an internal pullup device will select the x16 organization.

DEVICE OPERATION
The CAT93C56/57 is a 2048-bit nonvolatile memory intended for use with industry standard microproces- sors. The CAT93C56/57 can be organized as either registers of 16 bits or 8 bits. When organized as X16, seven 10-bit instructions for 93C57; seven 11-bit instructions for 93C56 control the reading, writing and erase operations of the device. When organized as X8, seven 11-bit instructions for 93C57; seven 12-bit in- structions for 93C56 control the reading, writing and erase operations of the device. The CAT93C56/57 operates on a single power supply and will generate on chip, the high voltage required during any write operation.
Instructions, addresses, and write data are clocked into the DI pin on the rising edge of the clock (SK). The DO pin is normally in a high impedance state except when reading data from the device, or when checking the ready/busy status after a write operation.
The ready/busy status can be determined after the start of a write operation by selecting the device (CS high) and polling the DO pin; DO low indicates that the write operation is not completed, while DO high indi- cates that the device is ready for the next instruction. If necessary, the DO pin may be placed back into a high impedance state during chip select by shifting a dummy †ś1†ť into the DI pin. The DO pin will enter the high impedance state on the falling edge of the clock (SK). Placing the DO pin into the high impedance state is recommended in applications where the DI pin and the
DO pin are to be tied together to form a common DI/O pin.
The format for all instructions sent to the device is a logical "1" start bit, a 2-bit (or 4-bit) opcode, 7-bit address (93C57)/ 8-bit address (93C56) (an additional bit when organized X8) and for write operations a 16-bit data field (8-bit for X8 organizations).
Read
Upon receiving a READ command and an address (clocked into the DI pin), the DO pin of the CAT93C56/ 57 will come out of the high impedance state and, after sending an initial dummy zero bit, will begin shifting out the data addressed (MSB first). The output data bits will toggle on the rising edge of the SK clock and are stable after the specified time delay (t
PD0
or t
PD1
).
Write
After receiving a WRITE command, address and the data, the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of t
CSMIN
. The falling edge of CS will start the
self clocking clear and data store cycle of the memory location specified in the instruction. The clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of the CAT93C56/57 can be determined by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. Since this device features Auto- Clear before write, it is NOT necessary to erase a memory location before it is written into.

Erase
Upon receiving an ERASE command and address, the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deasserted for a minimum of t
CSMIN
. The falling edge of CS will start the self clocking
clear cycle of the selected memory location. The clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of the CAT93C56/57 can be determined by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. Once cleared, the content of a cleared location returns to a logical †ś1†ť state.
Erase/Write Enable and Disable
The CAT93C56/57 powers up in the write disable state. Any writing after power-up or after an EWDS (write disable) instruction must first be preceded by the EWEN (write enable) instruction. Once the write instruction is enabled, it will remain enabled until power to the device is removed, or the EWDS instruction is sent. The EWDS instruction can be used to disable all CAT93C56/57 write and clear instructions, and will prevent any accidental writing or clearing of the device. Data can be read normally from the device regardless of the write enable/disable status.
Erase All
Upon receiving an ERAL command, the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of t
CSMIN
. The
falling edge of CS will start the self clocking clear cycle of all memory locations in the device. The clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of the CAT93C56/57 can be determined by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. Once cleared, the contents of all memory bits return to a logical †ś1†ť state.
Write All
Upon receiving a WRAL command and data, the CS (Chip Select) pin must be deselected for a minimum of t
CSMIN
. The falling edge of CS will start the self clocking
data write to all memory locations in the device. The clocking of the SK pin is not necessary after the device has entered the self clocking mode. The ready/busy status of the CAT93C56/57 can be determined by selecting the device and polling the DO pin. It is not necessary for all memory locations to be cleared before the WRAL command is executed.
