Description
The AT24C01 provides 1024 bits of serial electrically erasable and programmable
read only memory (EEPROM) organized as 128 words of 8 bits each. The device is
optimized for use in many industrial and commercial applications where low power
and low voltage operation are essential. The AT24C01 is available in space saving
8-pin PDIP, 8-pin MSOP, 8-pin TSSOP, and 8-pin JEDEC SOIC packages and is
accessed via a 2-wire serial interface. In addition, the entire family is available in 5.0V
(4.5V to 5.5V), 2.7V (2.7V to 5.5V), 2.5V (2.5V to 5.5V) and 1.8V (1.8V to 5.5V) ver-
sions.

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.
Memory Organization
AT24C01, 1K SERIAL EEPROM: Internally organized with
128 pages of 1 byte each. The 1K requires a 7-bit data
word address for random word addressing.

Device Operation
CLOCK and DATA TRANSITIONS: The SDA pin is nor-
mally pulled high with an external device. Data on the SDA
pin may change only during SCL low time periods (refer to
Data Validity 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 dia-
gram).
STOP CONDITION: A low-to-high transition of SDA with
SCL high is a stop condition which terminates all communi-
cations. 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 seri-
ally transmitted to and from the EEPROM in 8-bit words.
Any device on the system bus receiving data (when com-
municating with the EEPROM) must pull the SDA bus low
to acknowledge that it has successfully received each
word. This must happen during the ninth clock cycle after
each word received and after all other system devices have
freed the SDA bus. The EEPROM will likewise acknowl-
edge by pulling SDA low after receiving each address or
data word (refer to Acknowledge Response from Receiver
timing diagram).
STANDBY MODE: The AT24C01 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 follow-
ing 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.
