AT25080/160/320/640
3260D–SEEPR–9/03
Functional
Description
The AT25080/160/320/640 is designed to interface directly with the synchronous serial periph-
eral interface (SPI) of the 6805 and 68HC11 series of microcontrollers.
The AT25080/160/320/640 utilizes an 8-bit instruction register. The list of instructions and their
operation codes are contained in Table 1. All instructions, addresses, and data are transferred
with the MSB first and start with a high-to-low CS transition.
WRITE ENABLE (WREN): The device will power-up in the write disable state when V
CC
is
applied. All programming instructions must therefore be preceded by a Write Enable
instruction.
WRITE DISABLE (WRDI): To protect the device against inadvertent writes, the Write Disable
instruction disables all programming modes. The WRDI instruction is independent of the sta-
tus of the WP pin.
READ STATUS REGISTER (RDSR): The Read Status Register instruction provides access to
the status register. The READY/BUSY and Write Enable status of the device can be deter-
mined by the RDSR instruction. Similarly, the Block Write Protection bits indicate the extent of
protection employed. These bits are set by using the WRSR instruction.

Table 3. Read Status Register Bit Definition
Bit Definition
Bit 0 (RDY) Bit 0 = 0 (RDY) indicates the device is READY. Bit 0 = 1 indicates the write cycle is
in progress.
Bit 1 (WEN) Bit 1= 0 indicates the device is not WRITE ENABLED. Bit 1 = 1 indicates the
device is WRITE ENABLED.
Bit 2 (BP0) See Table 4 on page 8.
Bit 3 (BP1) See Table 4 on page 8.
Bits 4 - 6 are 0s when device is not in an internal write cycle.
Bit 7 (WPEN) See Table 5 on page 8.
Bits 0 - 7 are 1s during an internal write cycle.
