DESCRIPTION
The CAT25C128/256 is a 128K/256K-Bit SPI Serial
CMOS EEPROM internally organized as 16Kx8/32Kx8
bits. Catalyst’s advanced CMOS Technology
substantially reduces device power requirements. The
CAT25C128/256 features a 64-byte page write buffer.
The device operates via the SPI bus serial interface
and is enabled through a Chip Select (CS). In addition
to the Chip Select, the clock input (SCK), data in (SI)
and data out (SO) are required to access the device.
The
HOLD
pin may be used to suspend any serial
communication without resetting the serial sequence.
The CAT25C128/256 is designed with software and
hardware write protection features including Block Lock
protection. The device is available in 8-pin DIP, 8-pin
SOIC, 16-pin SOIC, 14-pin TSSOP and 20-pin TSSOP
packages.

*COMMENT
Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum
Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device.
These are stress ratings only, and functional operation
of the device at these or any other conditions outside of
those listed in the operational sections of this specification
is not implied. Exposure to any absolute maximum rating
for extended periods may affect device performance
and reliability.

Note:
(1) The minimum DC input voltage is –0.5V. During transitions, inputs may undershoot to –2.0V for periods of less than 20 ns. Maximum DC
voltage on output pins is V
CC
+0.5V, which may overshoot to V
CC
+2.0V for periods of less than 20 ns.
(2) Output shorted for no more than one second. No more than one output shorted at a time.
(3) This parameter is tested initially and after a design or process change that affects the parameter according to appropriate AEC-Q100 and
JEDEC test methods.
(4) Latch-up protection is provided for stresses up to 100 mA on address and data pins from –1V to V
CC
+1V.
(5) Maximum standby current (I
SB
) = 10µA for the Automotive and Extended Automotive temperature range.
