Description
The FM24C128A/256A provides 131,072/262,144 bits of serial
electrically erasable and programmable read-only memory
(EEPROM) organized as 16,384/32,768 words of 8 bits each.
The device’s cascadable feature allows up to 8 devices to
share a common 2-wire bus. The device is optimized for use in
many industrial and commercial applications where low-power
and low-voltage operations are essential.

Pin Description
SERIAL CLOCK (SCL):
The SCL input is used to
positive edge clock data into each EEPROM device
and negative edge clock data out of each device.
SERIAL DATA (SDA):
The SDA pin is bi-directional
for serial data transfer. This pin is open-drain driven
and may be wire-ORed with any number of other
open-drain or open-collector devices.
DEVICE/PAGE ADDRESSES (A2, A1, A0):
The A2,
A1 and A0 pins are device address inputs that are
hardwired or left not connected for hardware
compatibility with other FM24CXX devices. When
the pins are hardwired, as many as eight 128K/256K
devices may be addressed on a single bus system
(device addressing is discussed in detail under the
Device Addressing section). If the pins are left
floating, the A2, A1 and A0 pins will be internally
pulled down to GND if the capacitive coupling to
the circuit board V
CC
plane is <3pF, if coupling is
>3pF, FMSH recommends connecting the address
pins to GND.
WRITE PROTECT (WP):
The FM24C128A/256A has a
Write Protect pin that provides hardware data
protection. The WP pin allows normal write operations
when connected to ground (GND). When the Write
Protect pin is connected to VCC, all write operations
to the memory are inhibited. If the pin is left floating,
the WP pin will be internally pulled down to GND if
the capacitive coupling to the circuit board Vcc plane
is <3pF. If coupling is >3pF, FMSH recommends
connecting the WP to GND. Switching WP to VCC
prior to a write operation creates a software write
protected function.
