1. Description
The AT28C256 is a high-performance electrically erasable and programmable read-
only memory. Its 256K of memory is organized as 32,768 words by 8 bits. Manufac-
tured with Atmel’s advanced nonvolatile CMOS technology, the device offers access
times to 150 ns with power dissipation of just 440 mW. When the device is deselected,
the CMOS standby current is less than 200 µA.
The AT28C256 is accessed like a Static RAM for the read or write cycle without the
need for external components. The device contains a 64-byte page register to allow
writing of up to 64 bytes simultaneously. During a write cycle, the addresses and 1 to
64 bytes of data are internally latched, freeing the address and data bus for other
operations. Following the initiation of a write cycle, the device will automatically write
the latched data using an internal control timer. The end of a write cycle can be
detected by DATA Polling of I/O7. Once the end of a write cycle has been detected a
new access for a read or write can begin.
Atmel’s AT28C256 has additional features to ensure high quality and manufacturabil-
ity. The device utilizes internal error correction for extended endurance and improved
data retention characteristics. An optional software data protection mechanism is
available to guard against inadvertent writes. The device also includes an extra
64 bytes of EEPROM for device identification or tracking.

3. Block Diagram
4. Device Operation
4.1
Read
The AT28C256 is accessed like a Static RAM. When CE and OE are low and WE is high, the
data stored at the memory location determined by the address pins is asserted on the outputs.
The outputs are put in the high impedance state when either CE or OE is high. This dual-line
control gives designers flexibility in preventing bus contention in their system.
4.2
Byte Write
A low pulse on the WE or CE input with CE or WE low (respectively) and OE high initiates a write
cycle. The address is latched on the falling edge of CE or WE, whichever occurs last. The data is
latched by the first rising edge of CE or WE. Once a byte write has been started it will automati-
cally time itself to completion. Once a programming operation has been initiated and for the
duration of t
WC
, a read operation will effectively be a polling operation.
4.3
Page Write
The page write operation of the AT28C256 allows 1 to 64 bytes of data to be written into the
device during a single internal programming period. A page write operation is initiated in the
same manner as a byte write; the first byte written can then be followed by 1 to 63 additional
bytes. Each successive byte must be written within 150 µs (t
BLC
) of the previous byte. If the t
BLC
limit is exceeded the AT28C256 will cease accepting data and commence the internal program-
ming operation. All bytes during a page write operation must reside on the same page as
defined by the state of the A6 - A14 inputs. For each WE high to low transition during the page
write operation, A6 - A14 must be the same.
The A0 to A5 inputs are used to specify which bytes within the page are to be written. The bytes
may be loaded in any order and may be altered within the same load period. Only bytes which
are specified for writing will be written; unnecessary cycling of other bytes within the page does
not occur.
4.4
DATA Polling
The AT28C256 features DATA Polling to indicate the end of a write cycle. During a byte or page
write cycle an attempted read of the last byte written will result in the complement of the written
data to be presented on I/O7. Once the write cycle has been completed, true data is valid on all
outputs, and the next write cycle may begin. DATA Polling may begin at anytime during the write
cycle.

0006M–PEEPR–12/09
4.5
Toggle Bit
In addition to DATA Polling the AT28C256 provides another method for determining the end of a
write cycle. During the write operation, successive attempts to read data from the device will
result in I/O6 toggling between one and zero. Once the write has completed, I/O6 will stop tog-
gling and valid data will be read. Reading the toggle bit may begin at any time during the write
cycle.
4.6
Data Protection
If precautions are not taken, inadvertent writes may occur during transitions of the host system
power supply. Atmel has incorporated both hardware and software features that will protect the
memory against inadvertent writes.
4.6.1
Hardware Protection
Hardware features protect against inadvertent writes to the AT28C256 in the following ways: (a)
V
CC
sense – if V
CC
is below 3.8V (typical) the write function is inhibited; (b) V
CC
power-on delay –
once V
CC
has reached 3.8V the device will automatically time out 5 ms (typical) before allowing
a write; (c) write inhibit – holding any one of OE low, CE high or WE high inhibits write cycles;
and (d) noise filter – pulses of less than 15 ns (typical) on the WE or CE inputs will not initiate a
write cycle.
Software Data Protection
A software controlled data protection feature has been implemented on the AT28C256. When
enabled, the software data protection (SDP), will prevent inadvertent writes. The SDP feature
may be enabled or disabled by the user; the AT28C256 is shipped from Atmel with SDP
disabled.
SDP is enabled by the host system issuing a series of three write commands; three specific
bytes of data are written to three specific addresses (refer to “Software Data Protection” algo-
rithm). After writing the 3-byte command sequence and after t
WC
the entire AT28C256 will be
protected against inadvertent write operations. It should be noted, that once protected the host
may still perform a byte or page write to the AT28C256. This is done by preceding the data to be
written by the same 3-byte command sequence used to enable SDP.
Once set, SDP will remain active unless the disable command sequence is issued. Power transi-
tions do not disable SDP and SDP will protect the AT28C256 during power-up and power-down
conditions. All command sequences must conform to the page write timing specifications. The
data in the enable and disable command sequences is not written to the device and the memory
addresses used in the sequence may be written with data in either a byte or page write
operation.
After setting SDP, any attempt to write to the device without the 3-byte command sequence will
start the internal write timers. No data will be written to the device; however, for the duration of
t
WC
, read operations will effectively be polling operations.
4.6.2
4.7
Device Identification
An extra 64 bytes of EEPROM memory are available to the user for device identification. By rais-
ing A9 to 12V
±
0.5V and using address locations 7FC0H to 7FFFH the additional bytes may be
written to or read from in the same manner as the regular memory array.
4.8
Optional Chip Erase Mode
The entire device can be erased using a 6-byte software code. Please see “Software Chip
Erase” application note for details.
