2. 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 bidirectional 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/ADDRESSES (A2, A1, A0): The A2, A1 and A0 pins are device address inputs that are
hard wired or left not connected for hardware compatibility with other AT24CXX devices. When
the pins are hardwired, as many as eight 64K 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 cou-

pling to the circuit board VCC plane is <3pF. If coupling is >3pF, Atmel recommends connecting
the address pins to GND.
WRITE PROTECT (WP): The write protect input, when connected to GND, allows normal write
operations. When WP is connected high to VCC, all write operations to the upper quandrant (16K
bits) of 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, Atmel
recommends connecting the pin to GND.
3. Memory Organization
AT24C64B, 64K SERIAL EEPROM: The 64K is internally organized as 256 pages of 32 bytes
each. Random word addressing requires a 13 bit data word address.

5. Device Operation
CLOCK and DATA TRANSITIONS: The SDA pin is normally pulled high with an external
device. Data on the SDA pin may change only during SCL low time periods (refer to Data Valid-
ity timing diagram). Data changes during SCL high periods will indicate a start or stop condition
as defined below.
START CONDITION: A high-to-low transition of SDA with SCL high is a start condition which
must precede any other command (refer to Start and Stop Definition timing diagram).
STOP CONDITION: A low-to-high transition of SDA with SCL high is a stop condition. After a
read sequence, the stop command will place the EEPROM in a standby power mode (refer to
Start and Stop Definition timing diagram).
ACKNOWLEDGE: All addresses and data words are serially transmitted to and from the
EEPROM in 8-bit words. The EEPROM sends a zero during the ninth clock cycle to acknowl-
edge that it has received each word.
STANDBY MODE: The AT24C64B features a low power standby mode which is enabled: a)
upon power-up and b) after the receipt of the Stop bit and the completion of any internal
operations.
MEMORY RESET: After an interruption in protocol, power loss or system reset, any 2-wire part
can be reset by following these steps:
(a) Clock up to 9 cycles, (b) look for SDA high in each cycle while SCL is high and then (c) create
a start condition as SDA is high.

11. Device Addressing
The 64K EEPROM requires an 8-bit device address word following a start condition to enable
the chip for a read or write operation (see Figure 13-1 on page 11). The device address word
consists of a mandatory one, zero sequence for the first four most significant bits as shown. This
is common to all 2-wire EEPROM devices.
The 64K uses the three device address bits A2, A1, A0 to allow as many as eight devices on the
same bus. These bits must compare to their corresponding hardwired input pins. The A2, A1,
and A0 pins use an internal proprietary circuit that biases them to a logic low condition if the pins
are allowed to float.
The eighth bit of the device address is the read/write operation select bit. A read operation is ini-
tiated if this bit is high and a write operation is initiated if this bit is low.
Upon a compare of the device address, the EEPROM will output a zero. If a compare is not
made, the device will return to standby state.
NOISE PROTECTION: Special internal circuitry placed on the SDA and SCL pins prevent small
noise spikes from activating the device. A low-VCC detector (5-volt option) resets the device to
prevent data corruption in a noisy environment.
DATA SECURITY: The AT24C64B has a hardware data protection scheme that allows the user
to write protect the upper quadrant (16K bits) of memory when the WP pin is at VCC.
12. Write Operations
BYTE WRITE: A write operation requires two 8-bit data word addresses following the device
address word and acknowledgment. Upon receipt of this address, the EEPROM will again
respond with a zero and then clock in the first 8-bit data word. Following receipt of the 8-bit data
word, the EEPROM will output a zero and the addressing device, such as a microcontroller,
must terminate the write sequence with a stop condition. At this time the EEPROM enters an
internally-timed write cycle, tWR, to the nonvolatile memory. All inputs are disabled during this
write cycle and the EEPROM will not respond until the write is complete (see Figure 13-2 on
page 11).
PAGE WRITE: The 64K EEPROM is capable of 32-byte page writes.
A page write is initiated the same way as a byte write, but the microcontroller does not send a
stop condition after the first data word is clocked in. Instead, after the EEPROM acknowledges
receipt of the first data word, the microcontroller can transmit up to 31 more data words. The
EEPROM will respond with a zero after each data word received. The microcontroller must ter-
minate the page write sequence with a stop condition (see Figure 13-3 on page 11).
The data word address lower 5 bits are internally incremented following the receipt of each data
word. The higher data word address bits are not incremented, retaining the memory page row
location. When the word address, internally generated, reaches the page boundary, the follow-
ing byte is placed at the beginning of the same page. If more than 32 data words are transmitted
to the EEPROM, the data word address will “roll over” and previous data will be overwritten.
ACKNOWLEDGE POLLING: Once the internally-timed write cycle has started and the
EEPROM inputs are disabled, acknowledge polling can be initiated. This involves sending a
start condition followed by the device address word. The read/write bit is representative of the
operation desired. Only if the internal write cycle has completed will the EEPROM respond with
a zero, allowing the read or write sequence to continue.

3350E–SEEPR–9/07
AT24C64B
13. Read Operations
Read operations are initiated the same way as write operations with the exception that the
read/write select bit in the device address word is set to one. There are three read operations:
current address read, random address read and sequential read.
CURRENT ADDRESS READ: The internal data word address counter maintains the last
address accessed during the last read or write operation, incremented by one. This address
stays valid between operations as long as the chip power is maintained. The address “roll over”
during read is from the last byte of the last memory page, to the first byte of the first page. The
address “roll over” during write is from the last byte of the current page to the first byte of the
same page.
Once the device address with the read/write select bit set to one is clocked in and acknowledged
by the EEPROM, the current address data word is serially clocked out. The microcontroller does
not respond with an input zero but does generate a following stop condition (see Figure 13-4 on
page 12).
RANDOM READ: A random read requires a “dummy” byte write sequence to load in the data
word address. Once the device address word and data word address are clocked in and
acknowledged by the EEPROM, the microcontroller must generate another start condition. The
microcontroller now initiates a current address read by sending a device address with the
read/write select bit high. The EEPROM acknowledges the device address and serially clocks
out the data word. The microcontroller does not respond with a zero but does generate a follow-
ing stop condition (see Figure 13-5 on page 12).
SEQUENTIAL READ: Sequential reads are initiated by either a current address read or a ran-
dom address read. After the microcontroller receives a data word, it responds with an
acknowledge. As long as the EEPROM receives an acknowledge, it will continue to increment
the data word address and serially clock out sequential data words. When the memory address
limit is reached, the data word address will “roll over” and the sequential read will continue. The
sequential read operation is terminated when the microcontroller does not respond with a zero
but does generate a following stop condition (see Figure 13-6 on page 12).
