C EEPROM Device Addressing

The I

2

C EEPROM is addressed for a read or write operation by first sending a control byte followed

by the address byte or bytes. The control byte is preceded by a start condition. The control byte and
address byte(s) are each acknowledged by the EEPROM slave. If the EEPROM slave fails to send an
acknowledge, then the sequence is aborted and the EPC_TIMEOUT bit of the

EEPROM Command

Register (E2P_CMD)

is set.

The control byte consists of a 4-bit control code, 3-bits of chip/block select and one direction bit. The
control code is 1010b. For single byte addressing EEPROMs, the chip/block select bits are used for
address bits 10, 9, and 8. For double byte addressing EEPROMs, the chip/block select bits are set
low. The direction bit is set low to indicate the address is being written.
