CAT25128
128-Kb SPI Serial CMOS
EEPROM
Description
The CAT25128 is a 128−Kb Serial CMOS EEPROM device
internally organized as 16Kx8 bits. This features a 64−byte page write
buffer and supports the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol. The
device is enabled through a Chip Select (CS) input. In addition, the
required bus signals are clock input (SCK), data input (SI) and data
output (SO) lines. The HOLD input may be used to pause any serial
communication with the CAT25128 device. The device features
software and hardware write protection, including partial as well as
full array protection.

CAT25128
Pin Description
SI:
The serial data input pin accepts op−codes, addresses
and data. In SPI modes (0,0) and (1,1) input data is latched
on the rising edge of the SCK clock input.
SO:
The serial data output pin is used to transfer data out of
the device. In SPI modes (0,0) and (1,1) data is shifted out
on the falling edge of the SCK clock.
SCK:
The serial clock input pin accepts the clock provided
by the host and used for synchronizing communication
between host and CAT25128.
CS:
The chip select input pin is used to enable/disable the
CAT25128. When CS is high, the SO output is tri−stated (high
impedance) and the device is in Standby Mode (unless an
internal write operation is in progress).
Every communication
session between host and CAT25128 must be preceded by a
high to low transition and concluded with a low to high
transition of the CS input.
WP:
The write protect input pin will allow all write
operations to the device when held high. When WP pin is
tied low and the WPEN bit in the Status Register (refer to
Status Register description, later in this Data Sheet) is set to
“1”, writing to the Status Register is disabled.
HOLD:
The HOLD input pin is used to pause transmission
between host and CAT25128, without having to retransmit
the entire sequence at a later time. To pause, HOLD must be
taken low and to resume it must be taken back high, with the
SCK input low during both transitions. When not used for
pausing, it is recommended the HOLD input to be tied to
V
CC
, either directly or through a resistor.
Functional Description
The CAT25128 device supports the Serial Peripheral
Interface (SPI) bus protocol, modes (0,0) and (1,1). The
device contains an 8−bit instruction register. The instruction
set and associated op−codes are listed in Table 7.
Reading data stored in the CAT25128 is accomplished by
simply providing the READ command and an address.
Writing to the CAT25128, in addition to a WRITE
command, address and data, also requires enabling the
device for writing by first setting certain bits in a Status
Register, as will be explained later.
After a high to low transition on the CS input pin, the
CAT25128 will accept any one of the six instruction
op−codes listed in Table 7 and will ignore all other possible
8−bit combinations. The communication protocol follows
the timing from Figure 2.

CAT25128
Status Register
The Status Register, as shown in Table 8, contains a
number of status and control bits.
The RDY (Ready) bit indicates whether the device is busy
with a write operation. This bit is automatically set to 1 during
an internal write cycle, and reset to 0 when the device is ready
to accept commands. For the host, this bit is read only.
The WEL (Write Enable Latch) bit is set/reset by the
WREN/WRDI commands. When set to 1, the device is in a
Write Enable state and when set to 0, the device is in a Write
Disable state.
The BP0 and BP1 (Block Protect) bits determine which
blocks are currently write protected. They are set by the user
with the WRSR command and are non−volatile. The user is
Table 8. STATUS REGISTER

allowed to protect a quarter, one half or the entire memory,
by setting these bits according to Table 9. The protected
blocks then become read−only.
The WPEN (Write Protect Enable) bit acts as an enable for
the WP pin. Hardware write protection is enabled when the
WP pin is low and the WPEN bit is 1. This condition
prevents writing to the status register and to the block
protected sections of memory. While hardware write
protection is active, only the non−block protected memory
can be written. Hardware write protection is disabled when
the WP pin is high or the WPEN bit is 0. The WPEN bit, WP
pin and WEL bit combine to either permit or inhibit Write
operations, as detailed in Table 10.
