General Description
The AK6416C is a 16384bit, serial, read/write, non-volatile memory device fabricated using an
advanced CMOS EEPROM technology. The AK6416C has 16384bits of memory organized into
1024 registers of 16 bits each. The AK6416C can operate full function under wide operating
voltage range from 1.8V to 5.5V. The charge up circuit is integrated for high voltage generation
that is used for write operation.
The AK6416C can connect to the serial communication port of popular one chip microcomputer
directly (3 line negative clock synchronous interface). At write operation, AK6416C takes in the
write data from data input pin (DI) to a register synchronously with rising edge of input pulse of
serial clock pin ( SK ). And at read operation, AK6416C takes out the read data from a register to
data output pin (DO) synchronously with falling edge of SK .
The AK6416C has 5 instructions such as READ, WRITE, PAGE WRITE, WREN (write enable) and
WRDS (write disable). Each instruction is organized by op-code block (8bits), address block (8bits)
and data (8bits x 2). When input level of SK pin is high level and input level of chip select
( CS ) pin is changed from high level to low level, AK6416C can receive the instructions.
Special features of the AK6416C include : automatic write time-out with auto-ERASE,
Ready/ Busy status signal output and ultra-low standby power mode when deselected
( CS =high).
Software and Hardware controlled write protection
The AK6416C has 2 (hardware and software) write protection functions.
After power on or after execution of WRDS (write disable) instruction, execution of WRITE
instruction will be disabled. This write protection condition continues until WREN instruction is
executed or VCC is removed from the part.
Execution of READ instruction is independent of both WREN and WRDS instructions.
Reset pin should be low level when WRITE instruction is executed. When the Reset pin is high
level, the WRITE instruction is not executed.
Ready/ Busy status signal
During the automatic write time-out period ( Busy status), the AK6416C can't accept the other
instructions. The AK6416C has 2 functions to know the Busy status from exterior.
The RDY/ BUSY pin indicates the Busy status regardless of the CS pin status. The
RDY/ BUSY pin outputs the low level regardless of the CS pin status during Busy status.
Except the above status, this pin outputs high level.
Also the DO pin indicates the Busy status. When input level of SK pin is low level and input
level of CS pin is changed from high level to low level, the AK6416C is in the status output
mode and the DO pin indicates the Ready/ Busy status. The Ready/ Busy status outputs on
DO pin until CS pin is changed from low level to high level, or first bit ("1") of op-code of next
instruction is given to the part. Except when the device is in the status output mode or outputs
data, the DO pin is in the high impedance state.

Pin Description
CS
(Chip Select)
When SK is high level and CS is changed from high level to low level, AK6416C can receive
the instructions. CS should be kept low level while receiving op-code, address and data and
while outputting data. If CS is changed to high level during the above period, AK6416C stops
the instruction execution. When SK is low and CS is changed from high level to low level,
AK6416C will be in status output mode. The CS need not be low level during the automatic
write time-out period ( Busy status).
SK
(Serial Clock)
The SK clock pin is the synchronous clock input for input/output data. At write operation,
AK6416C takes in the write data from data input pin (DI) synchronously with rising edge of input
pulse of serial clock pin ( SK ). And at read operation, AK6416C takes out the read data to data
output pin (DO) synchronously with falling edge of SK . The SK clock is not needed during
the automatic write time-out period ( Busy status), the status output period and when the device
isn't selected ( CS = high level).
DI
(Data Input)
The op-code, address and write data is input to the DI pin.
DO
(Data Output)
The DO pin outputs the read data and status signal and will be high impedance except for this
timing.
RDY/ BUSY
(Ready/ Busy status)
This pin outputs the internal programming status. When the AK6416C is in the automatic write
time-out period, this pin outputs the low level ( Busy status), and outputs the high level except for
this timing.
RESET
(Reset)
The AK6416C stops executing the write instruction when the RESET pin is high level. The
RESET pin should be low level while the write instruction input period and the page write
instruction input period and the automatic write time-out period. If the RESET pin is high level
while the automatic write time-out period, the AK6416C stops execution of internal programming
and the device returns to ready status. In this case the word data of the specified address will be
incomplete. When inputting the new instruction after RESET, the CS pin should be set to high
level. The read, write enable and write disable instructions are not affected by RESET pin status.

Functional Description
The AK6416C has 5 instructions such as READ, WRITE, Page Write, WREN (write enable) and
WRDS (write disable). Each instruction is organized by op-code block (8bits), address block
(8bits) and data (8bits x 2). When input level of SK pin is high level and input level of chip
select ( CS ) pin is changed from high level to low level, AK6416C can receive the instructions.
When the instructions are executed consecutively, the CS pin should be brought to high level for
a minimum of 250ns(Tcs) between consecutive instruction cycle.

Write
The write instruction is followed by 16 bits of data to be written into the specified address. After
the 32nd rising edge of SK to read D0 in, the AK6416C will be put into the automatic write
time-out period. During the automatic write time-out period ( Busy status) and while entering
write instruction, the RESET pin should be low level. If the RESET pin is set to high level during
the automatic write time-out period, the AK6416C stops execution of internal programming and the
device returns to ready status. In this case the word data of the specified address will be
incomplete. When inputting the new instruction after RESET, the CS pin should be set to high
level. When the RESET pin is kept at high level, the write is not executed. This becomes write
protection function.
The CS pin need not be high level during automatic write time-out period ( Busy status).
