CAT93C46
1 Kb Microwire Serial
EEPROM
Description
The CAT93C46 is a 1 Kb Serial EEPROM memory device which is
configured as either 64 registers of 16 bits (ORG pin at V
CC
) or 128
registers of 8 bits (ORG pin at GND). Each register can be written (or
read) serially by using the DI (or DO) pin. The CAT93C46 features a
self−timed internal write with auto−clear. On−chip Power−On Reset
circuit protects the internal logic against powering up in the wrong
state.

CAT93C46
Device Operation
The CAT93C46 is a 1024−bit nonvolatile memory
intended for use with industry standard microprocessors.
The CAT93C46 can be organized as either registers of 16
bits or 8 bits. When organized as X16, seven 9−bit
instructions control the reading, writing and erase
operations of the device. When organized as X8, seven
10−bit instructions control the reading, writing and erase
operations of the device. The CAT93C46 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
during a write operation. The serial communication protocol
follows the timing shown in Figure 2.
The ready/busy status can be determined after the start of
internal write cycle by selecting the device (CS high) and
polling the DO pin; DO low indicates that the write
operation is not completed, while DO high indicates 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 “1” into the DI pin. The DO
pin will enter the high impedance state on the rising 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 Ready/Busy flag can be disabled only in Ready
state; no change is allowed in Busy state.
The format for all instructions sent to the device is a
logical “1” start bit, a 2−bit (or 4−bit) opcode, 6−bit address
(an additional bit when organized X8) and for write
operations a 16−bit data field (8−bit for X8 organization).
Read
Upon receiving a READ command (Figure 3) and an
address (clocked into the DI pin), the DO pin of the
CAT93C46 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
).
Erase/Write Enable and Disable
The CAT93C46 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 CAT93C46 write and erase 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. The EWEN and
EWDS instructions timing is shown in Figure 4.
