Description
The Atmel® AT93C56B/66B provides 2,048/4,096 bits of Serial Electrically
Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM). The EEPROM is
organized as 128/256 words of 16 bits each when the ORG pin is connected to
VCC and 256/512 words of 8 bits each when it is tied to ground. The device is
optimized for use in many automotive applications where low-power and
low-voltage operations are essential. AT93C56B/66B is available in space-saving
8-lead JEDEC SOIC and 8-lead TSSOP packages.
AT93C56B/66B is enabled through the Chip Select (CS) pin and accessed via a
3-wire serial interface consisting of Data Input (DI), Data Output (DO), and Shift
Clock (SK). Upon receiving a Read instruction at DI, the address is decoded and
the data is clocked out serially on the data output pin DO. The write cycle is
completely self-timed and no separate erase cycle is required before write. The
write cycle is only enabled when the part is in the Erase/Write Enable state. When
CS is brought high following the initiation of a write cycle, the DO pin outputs the
Ready/Busy status of the part.
AT93C56B/66B operates from 2.5V to 5.5V.

6. Functional Description
AT93C56B/66B is accessed via a simple and versatile three-wire serial communication interface. Device
operation is controlled by seven instructions issued by the host processor. A valid instruction starts with a rising
edge of CS and consists of a start bit (Logic 1) followed by the appropriate opcode and the desired memory
address location.
Read: The Read instruction contains the address code for the memory location to be read. After the instruction
and address are decoded, data from the selected memory location is available at the serial output pin DO.
Output data changes are synchronized with the rising edges of serial clock SK. It should be noted that a dummy
bit (Logic 0) precedes the 8- or 16-bit data output string. AT93C56B/66B supports sequential read operations.
The device will automatically increment the internal address pointer and clock out the next memory location as
long as Chip Select (CS) is held high. In this case, the dummy bit (Logic 0) will not be clocked out between
memory locations, thus allowing for a continuous stream of data to be read.
Figure 6-1. Read Timing
Erase/Write Enable (EWEN): To assure data integrity, the part automatically goes into the Erase/Write Disable
(EWDS) state when power is first applied. An Erase/Write Enable (EWEN) instruction must be executed first
before any programming instructions can be carried out. Please note that once in the EWEN state,
programming remains enabled until an EWDS instruction is executed or VCC power is removed from the part.

Erase: The Erase instruction programs all bits in the specified memory location to the Logical 1 state. The
self-timed erase cycle starts once the Erase instruction and address are decoded. The DO pin outputs the
Ready/Busy status of the part if CS is brought high after being kept low for a minimum of 250ns (tCS). A Logic 1
at pin DO indicates that the selected memory location has been erased, and the part is ready for another
instruction.
Figure 6-3. Erase Timing
Write: The Write instruction contains the 8 or 16 bits of data to be written into the specified memory location.
The self-timed programming cycle, tWP, starts after the last bit of data is received at serial data input pin DI. The
DO pin outputs the Ready/Busy status of the part if CS is brought high after being kept low for a minimum of
250ns (tCS). A Logic 0 at DO indicates that programming is still in progress. A Logic 1 indicates that the memory
location at the specified address has been written with the data pattern contained in the instruction and the part
is ready for further instructions. A Ready/Busy status cannot be obtained if the CS is brought high after the end
of the self-timed programming cycle, tWP..

Erase All (ERAL): The Erase All (ERAL) instruction programs every bit in the memory array to the Logic 1 state
and is primarily used for testing purposes. The DO pin outputs the ready/busy status of the part if CS is brought
high after being kept low for a minimum of 250ns (tCS). The ERAL instruction is valid only at VCC = 5.0V 10%.

Note: 1. Valid only at VCC = 4.5V to 5.5V.
Write All (WRAL): The Write All (WRAL) instruction programs all memory locations with the data patterns
specified in the instruction. The DO pin outputs the Ready/Busy status of the part if CS is brought high after
being kept low for a minimum of 250ns (tCS). The WRAL instruction is valid only at VCC = 5.0V ±10%.

Erase/Write Disable (EWDS): To protect against accidental data disturb, the Erase/Write Disable (EWDS)
instruction disables all programming modes and should be executed after all programming operations. The
operation of the Read instruction is independent of both the EWEN and EWDS instructions and can be
executed at any time.

7.1 Power Recommendation
The device internal POR (Power-On Reset) threshold is just below the minimum device operating voltage.
Power shall rise monotonically from 0.0Vdc to full VCC in less than 1ms. Hold at full VCC for at least 100μs before
the first operation. Power shall drop from full VCC to 0.0Vdc in less than 1ms. Power dropping to a non-zero level
and then slowly going to zero is not recommended. Power shall remain off (0.0Vdc) for 0.5s minimum. Please
consult Atmel if your power conditions do not meet the above recommendations.
