2. General Description
The GT24C512 are EEPROM devices that use the
industrial standard 2-wire interface for communications. The
GT24C512
contains
a
memory
array
of
512K-bits
device, and a series of data, if appropriate. The GT24C512
also has a Write Protect pin (WP) to allow blocking any
write operations over specified memory area.
Under no circumstance, the device will be hung up. In order
to refrain the state machine entering into a wrong state
during power-up sequence or a power toggle off-on
condition, a power on reset circuit is embedded. During
power-up, the device does not respond to any instructions
until the supply voltage (V
CC
) has reached an acceptable
stable level above the reset threshold voltage. Once V
CC
passes the power on reset threshold, the device is reset
and enters into the Standby mode. This would also avoid
any inadvertent Write operations during power-up stage.
During power-down process, the device will enter into
standby mode, once V
CC
drops below the power on reset
threshold voltage. In addition, the device will be in standby
mode after receiving the Stop command, provided that no
internal write operation is in progress. Nevertheless, it is
illegal to send a command unless the V
CC
is within its
operating level.
(65,536x8), which is organized in 128-byte per page.
The EEPROM can operate in a wide voltage range from
1.7V to 5.5V which fits most application. This product can
provide a low-power 2-wire EEPROM solution. The device
is offered in Lead-free, RoHS, halogen free or Green. The
available package types are 8-pin SOIC/SOP, TSSOP and
CSP.
The GT24C512 is compatible with the industrial standard
2-wire bus protocol. If in case the bus is not responded, a
new sent Op-code command will reset the bus and the
device will respond correctly. The simple bus consists of the
Serial Clock wire (SCL) and the Serial Data wire (SDA).
Utilizing such bus protocol, a Master device, such as a
microcontroller, can usually control one or more Slave
devices, alike this GT24C512. The bit stream over the SDA
line includes a series of bytes, which identifies a particular
Slave device, an instruction, an address within that Slave

4.3 Pin Descriptions
SCL
This input clock pin is used to synchronize the data transfer
to and from the device.
SDA
The SDA is a bi-directional pin used to transfer addresses
and data into and out of the device. The SDA pin is an open
drain output and can be wired with other open drain or open
collector outputs. However, the SDA pin requires a pull-up
resistor connected to the power supply.
A0, A1, A2
The A0, A1 and A2 are the device address inputs.
Typically, the A0, A1, and A2 pins are for hardware
addressing and a total of 8 devices can be connected on a
single bus system. When A0, A1, and A2 are left floating,
the inputs are defaulted to zero.
WP
WP is the Write Protect pin. While the WP pin is connected
to the power supply of GT24C512, the entire array becomes
Write Protected (i.e. the device becomes Read only). When
WP is tied to Ground or left floating, the normal write
operations are allowed.
