DESCRIPTION

The X4643/5 combines four popular functions, Power-on
Reset Control, Watchdog Timer, Supply Voltage
Supervision, and Serial EEPROM Memory in one
package. This combination lowers system cost,
reduces board space requirements, and increases reli-
ability.

Applying power to the device activates the power on
reset circuit which holds RESET/RESET active for a
period of time. This allows the power supply and oscilla-
tor to stabilize before the processor can execute code.

The Watchdog Timer provides an independent protection
mechanism for microcontrollers. When the microcon-
troller fails to restart a timer within a selectable time out
interval, the device activates the RESET/RESET signal.
The user selects the interval from three preset values.
Once selected, the interval does not change, even after
cycling the power.

The device's low V

detection circuitry protects the

user's system from low voltage conditions, resetting the
system when V

falls below the set minimum V

trip

point. RESET/RESET is asserted until V

returns to

proper operating level and stabilizes. Four industry

Reset Output

RESET/RESET is an active LOW/HIGH, open drain output which

goes active whenever V

falls below the minimum V

sense level. It will remain

active until V

rises above the minimum V

sense level for 250ms. RESET/

RESET goes active if the Watchdog Timer is enabled and SDA remains either
HIGH or LOW longer than the selectable Watchdog time out period. A falling edge
on SDA, while SCL is HIGH, resets the Watchdog Timer. RESET/RESET goes
active on power up and remains active for 250ms after the power supply stabilizes.

Ground

SDA

Serial Data.

SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into and out of the de-

vice. It has an open drain output and may be wire ORed with other open drain or
open collector outputs. This pin requires a pull up resistor and the input buffer is
always active (not gated).

Watchdog Input.

A HIGH to LOW transition on the SDA (while SCL is HIGH) restarts

the Watchdog timer. The absence of a HIGH to LOW transition within the watchdog
time out period results in RESET/RESET going active.

SCL

Serial Clock.

The Serial Clock controls the serial bus timing for data input and output.

Write Protect.

WP HIGH used in conjunction with WPEN bit prevents writes to the

control register.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

Power On Reset

Application of power to the X4643/5 activates a Power
On Reset Circuit that pulls the RESET/RESET pin
active. This signal provides several benefits.

It prevents the system microprocessor from starting

to operate with insufficient voltage.

It prevents the processor from operating prior to sta-

bilization of the oscillator.

It allows time for an FPGA to download its configura-

tion prior to initialization of the circuit.

It prevents communication to the EEPROM, greatly

reducing the likelihood of data corruption on power up.

When V

exceeds the device V

TRIP

threshold value

for 200ms (nominal) the circuit releases RESET/
RESET allowing the system to begin operation.

LOW VOLTAGE MONITORING

During operation, the X4643/5 monitors the V

level

and asserts RESET/RESET if supply voltage falls
below a preset minimum V

TRIP

. The RESET/RESET

signal prevents the microprocessor from operating in a
power fail or brownout condition. The RESET/RESET
signal remains active until the voltage drops below 1V.
It also remains active until V

returns and exceeds

TRIP

for 200ms.

WATCHDOG TIMER

The Watchdog Timer circuit monitors the microprocessor
activity by monitoring the SDA and SCL pins. The
microprocessor must toggle the SDA pin HIGH to LOW

periodically, while SCL is HIGH (this is a start bit) prior
to the expiration of the watchdog time out period to
prevent a RESET/RESET signal. The state of two non-
volatile control bits in the Status Register determine
the watchdog timer period. The microprocessor can
change these watchdog bits, or they may be "locked"
by tying the WP pin HIGH.

EEPROM INADVERTENT WRITE PROTECTION

When RESET/RESET goes active as a result of a low
voltage condition or Watchdog Timer Time Out, any in-
progress communications are terminated. While
RESET/RESET is active, no new communications are
allowed and no nonvolatile write operation can start.
Nonvolatile writes in-progress when RESET/RESET
goes active are allowed to finish.

Additional protection mechanisms are provided with
memory Block Lock and the Write Protect (WP) pin.
These are discussed elsewhere in this document.

THRESHOLD RESET PROCEDURE

The X4643/5 is shipped with a standard V

threshold

) voltage. This value will not change over normal

operating and storage conditions. However, in applica-
tions where the standard V

TRIP

is not exactly right, or if

higher precision is needed in the V

TRIP

value, the

X4643/5 threshold may be adjusted. The procedure is
described below, and uses the application of a nonvol-
atile control signal.

Setting the V

TRIP

Voltage

This procedure is used to set the V

TRIP

to a higher or

lower voltage value. It is necessary to reset the trip
point before setting the new value.

To set the new V

TRIP

voltage, start by setting the WEL

bit in the control register, then apply the desired V

TRIP

threshold voltage to the V

pin and the programming

voltage, V

to the WP pin and 2 byte address and 1

byte of "00" data. The stop bit following a valid write
operation initiates the V

TRIP

programming sequence.

Bring WP

LOW to complete the operation.

Resetting the V

TRIP

Voltage

This procedure is used to set the V

TRIP

to a "native"

voltage level. For example, if the current V

TRIP

is 4.4V

and the new V

TRIP

must be 4.0V, then the V

TRIP

must

be reset. When V

TRIP

is reset, the new V

TRIP

is some-

thing less than 1.7V. This procedure must be used to
set the voltage to a lower value.

To reset the new V

TRIP

voltage start by setting the

WEL bit in the control register, apply V

and the pro-

gramming voltage, V

, to the WP pin and 2 byte

address and 1 byte of "00" data. The stop bit of a valid
write operation initiates the V

TRIP

programming

sequence. Bring WP

LOW to complete the operation.

Control Register

The Control Register provides the user a mechanism
for changing the Block Lock and Watchdog Timer set-
tings. The Block Lock and Watchdog Timer bits are
nonvolatile and do not change when power is removed.

The Control Register is accessed at address FFFFh. It
can only be modified by performing a byte write opera-
tion directly to the address of the register and only one
data byte is allowed for each register write operation.
Prior to writing to the Control Register, the WEL and

RWEL bits must be set using a two step process, with
the whole sequence requiring 3 steps. See "Writing to
the Control Register" below.

The user must issue a stop after sending this byte to the
register to initiate the nonvolatile cycle that stores WD1,
and WD0. The X4643/5 will not acknowledge any data
bytes written after the first byte is entered.

The state of the Control Register can be read at any
time by performing a random read at address FFFFh.
Only one byte is read by each register read operation.

REV 1.26 4/30/02

www.xicor.com

The X4643/5 resets itself after the first byte is read.
The master should supply a stop condition to be con-
sistent with the bus protocol, but a stop is not required
to end this operation.

BP2, BP1, BP0: Block Protect Bits (Nonvolatile)

The Block Protect Bits, BP2, BP1 and BP0, determine
which blocks of the array are write protected. A write to
a protected block of memory is ignored. The block pro-
tect bits will prevent write operations to the following
segments of the array.

RWEL: Register Write Enable Latch (Volatile)

The RWEL bit must be set to "1" prior to a write to the
Control Register.

WEL: Write Enable Latch (Volatile)

The WEL bit controls the access to the memory and to
the Register during a write operation. This bit is a vola-
tile latch that powers up in the LOW (disabled) state.
While the WEL bit is LOW, writes to any address,
including any control registers will be ignored (no
acknowledge will be issued after the Data Byte). The
WEL bit is set by writing a "1" to the WEL bit and

zeroes to the other bits of the control register. Once
set, WEL remains set until either it is reset to 0 (by writ-
ing a "0" to the WEL bit and zeroes to the other bits of
the control register) or until the part powers up again.
Writes to the WEL bit do not cause a nonvolatile write
cycle, so the device is ready for the next operation
immediately after the stop condition.

WD1, WD0: Watchdog Timer Bits

The bits WD1 and WD0 control the period of the
Watchdog Timer. The options are shown below.

Write Protect Enable

These devices have an advanced block lock scheme that
protects one of five blocks of the array when enabled. It
provides hardware write protection through the use of a
WP pin and a nonvolatile Write Protect Enable (WPEN)
bit.

The Write Protect (WP) pin and the Write Protect
Enable (WPEN) bit in the Control Register control the
programmable Hardware Write Protect feature. Hard-
ware Write Protection is enabled when the WP pin and
the WPEN bit are HIGH and disabled when either the
WP pin or the WPEN bit is LOW. When the chip is Hard-
ware Write Protected, nonvolatile writes to the block pro-
tected sections in the memory array cannot be written
and the block protect bits cannot be changed. Only the
sections of the memory array that are not block pro-
tected can be written. Note that since the WPEN bit is
write protected, it cannot be changed back to a LOW
state; so write protection is enabled as long as the WP
pin is held HIGH.

Writing to the Control Register

Changing any of the nonvolatile bits of the control reg-
ister requires the following steps:

Write a 02H to the Control Register to set the Write

Enable Latch (WEL). This is a volatile operation, so
there is no delay after the write. (Operation pre-
ceeded by a start and ended with a stop).

Write a 06H to the Control Register to set both the

Register Write Enable Latch (RWEL) and the WEL
bit. This is also a volatile cycle. The zeros in the data
byte are required. (Operation preceeded by a start
and ended with a stop).

Write a value to the Control Register that has all the

control bits set to the desired state. This can be rep-
resented as 0xys t01r in binary, where xy are the WD
bits, and rst are the BP bits. (Operation preceeded
by a start and ended with a stop). Since this is a non-
volatile write cycle it will take up to 10ms to com-
plete. The RWEL bit is reset by this cycle and the
sequence must be repeated to change the nonvola-
tile bits again. If bit 2 is set to `1' in this third step
(0xys t11r) then the RWEL bit is set, but the WD1,
WD0, BP2, BP1 and BP0 bits remain unchanged.
Writing a second byte to the control register is not
allowed. Doing so aborts the write operation and
returns a NACK.

A read operation occurring between any of the previ-

ous operations will not interrupt the register write
operation.

The RWEL bit cannot be reset without writing to the

nonvolatile control bits in the control register, power
cycling the device or attempting a write to a write
protected block.

To illustrate, a sequence of writes to the device consist-
ing of [02H, 06H, 02H] will reset all of the nonvolatile
bits in the Control Register to 0. A sequence of [02H,
06H, 06H] will leave the nonvolatile bits unchanged
and the RWEL bit remains set.

SERIAL INTERFACE

Serial Interface Conventions

The device supports a bidirectional bus oriented proto-
col. The protocol defines any device that sends data
onto the bus as a transmitter, and the receiving device
as the receiver. The device controlling the transfer is
called the master and the device being controlled is
called the slave. The master always initiates data
transfers, and provides the clock for both transmit and
receive operations. Therefore, the devices in this family
operate as slaves in all applications.

Serial Clock and Data

Data states on the SDA line can change only during
SCL LOW. SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are
reserved for indicating start and stop conditions. See
Figure 5.

Serial Start Condition

All commands are preceded by the start condition,
which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA when SCL is
HIGH. The device continuously monitors the SDA and
SCL lines for the start condition and will not respond to
any command until this condition has been met. See
Figure 6.

Serial Stop Condition

All communications must be terminated by a stop condi-
tion, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when
SCL is HIGH. The stop condition is also used to place
the device into the Standby power mode after a read
sequence. A stop condition can only be issued after the
transmitting device has released the bus. See Figure 6.

Figure 6. Valid Start and Stop Conditions

SCL

SDA

Start

Stop

Serial Acknowledge

Acknowledge is a software convention used to indicate
successful data transfer. The transmitting device, either
master or slave, will release the bus after transmitting
eight bits. During the ninth clock cycle, the receiver will
pull the SDA line LOW to acknowledge that it received
the eight bits of data. Refer to Figure 7.

The device will respond with an acknowledge after rec-
ognition of a start condition and if the correct Device
Identifier and Select bits are contained in the Slave
Address Byte. If a write operation is selected, the
device will respond with an acknowledge after the
receipt of each subsequent eight bit word. The device

will acknowledge all incoming data and address bytes,
except for the Slave Address Byte when the Device
Identifier and/or Select bits are incorrect.

In the read mode, the device will transmit eight bits of
data, release the SDA line, then monitor the line for an
acknowledge. If an acknowledge is detected and no
stop condition is generated by the master, the device
will continue to transmit data. The device will terminate
further data transmissions if an acknowledge is not
detected. The master must then issue a stop condition
to return the device to Standby mode and place the
device into a known state.

Serial Write Operations

YTE

RITE

For a write operation, the device requires the Slave
Address Byte and a Word Address Byte. This gives the
master access to any one of the words in the array. After
receipt of the Word Address Byte, the device responds
with an acknowledge, and awaits the next eight bits of

data. After receiving the 8 bits of the Data Byte, the
device again responds with an acknowledge. The mas-
ter then terminates the transfer by generating a stop
condition, at which time the device begins the internal
write cycle to the nonvolatile memory. During this inter-
nal write cycle, the device inputs are disabled, so the
device will not respond to any requests from the master.
The SDA output is at high impedance. See Figure 8.

Page Write

The device is capable of a page write operation. It is
initiated in the same manner as the byte write opera-
tion; but instead of terminating the write cycle after the
first data byte is transferred, the master can transmit
an unlimited number of 8-bit bytes. After the receipt of
each byte, the device will respond with an acknowl-
edge, and the address is internally incremented by
one. The page address remains constant. When the

counter reaches the end of the page, it "rolls over" and
goes back to `0' on the same page. This means that the
master can write 64-bytes to the page starting at any
location on that page. If the master begins writing at
location 60, and loads 12-bytes, then the first 4-bytes
are written to locations 60 through 63, and the last
8-bytes are written to locations 0 through 7. After-
wards, the address counter would point to location 8 of
the page that was just written. If the master supplies
more than 64-bytes of data, then new data over-writes
the previous data, one byte at a time.

The master terminates the Data Byte loading by issuing
a stop condition, which causes the device to begin the
nonvolatile write cycle. As with the byte write operation,
all inputs are disabled until completion of the internal
write cycle. See Figure 9 for the address, acknowledge,
and data transfer sequence.

Stops and Write Modes

Stop conditions that terminate write operations must
be sent by the master after sending at least 1 full data
byte plus the subsequent ACK signal. If a stop is
issued in the middle of a data byte, or before 1 full data
byte plus its associated ACK is sent, then the device
will reset itself without performing the write. The con-
tents of the array will not be effected.

Acknowledge Polling

The disabling of the inputs during nonvolatile cycles
can be used to take advantage of the typical 5ms write
cycle time. Once the stop condition is issued to indi-
cate the end of the master's byte load operation, the
device initiates the internal nonvolatile cycle. Acknowl-
edge polling can be initiated immediately. To do this,
the master issues a start condition followed by the
Slave Address Byte for a write or read operation. If the
device is still busy with the nonvolatile cycle then no
ACK will be returned. If the device has completed the
write operation, an ACK will be returned and the host
can then proceed with the read or write operation.
Refer to the flow chart in Figure 11.

Serial Read Operations

Read operations are initiated in the same manner as
write operations with the exception that the R/W bit of
the Slave Address Byte is set to one. There are three
basic read operations: Current Address Reads, Ran-
dom Reads, and Sequential Reads.

Current Address Read

Internally the device contains an address counter that
maintains the address of the last word read incre-
mented by one. Therefore, if the last read was to
address n, the next read operation would access data
from address n+1. On power up, the address of the
address counter is undefined, requiring a read or write
operation for initialization.

Upon receipt of the Slave Address Byte with the R/W
bit set to one, the device issues an acknowledge and
then transmits the eight bits of the Data Byte. The mas-
ter terminates the read operation when it does not
respond with an acknowledge during the ninth clock
and then issues a stop condition. Refer to Figure 12 for
the address, acknowledge, and data transfer
sequence.

It should be noted that the ninth clock cycle of the read
operation is not a "don't care." To terminate a read
operation, the master must either issue a stop condi-
tion during the ninth cycle or hold SDA HIGH during
the ninth clock cycle and then issue a stop condition.

Random Read

Random read operation allows the master to access
any memory location in the array. Prior to issuing the
Slave Address Byte with the R/W bit set to one, the
master must first perform a "dummy" write operation.
The master issues the start condition and the Slave
Address Byte, receives an acknowledge, then issues
the Word Address Bytes. After acknowledging receipts

of the Word Address Bytes, the master immediately
issues another start condition and the Slave Address
Byte with the R/W bit set to one. This is followed by an
acknowledge from the device and then by the eight bit
word. The master terminates the read operation by not
responding with an acknowledge and then issuing a
stop condition. Refer to Figure 13 for the address,
acknowledge, and data transfer sequence.

There is a similar operation, called "Set Current
Address" where the device does no operation, but
enters a new address into the address counter if a stop
is issued instead of the second start shown in Figure
13. The device goes into standby mode after the stop
and all bus activity will be ignored until a start is
detected. The next Current Address Read operation
reads from the newly loaded address. This operation
could be useful if the master knows the next address it
needs to read, but is not ready for the data.

Sequential Read

Sequential reads can be initiated as either a current
address read or random address read. The first Data
Byte is transmitted as with the other modes; however,
the master now responds with an acknowledge, indi-

cating it requires additional data. The device continues
to output data for each acknowledge received. The
master terminates the read operation by not respond-
ing with an acknowledge and then issuing a stop con-
dition.

The data output is sequential, with the data from
address n followed by the data from address n + 1. The
address counter for read operations increments
through all page and column addresses, allowing the
entire memory contents to be serially read during one
operation. At the end of the address space the counter
"rolls over" to address 0000

and the device continues

to output data for each acknowledge received. Refer to
Figure 14 for the acknowledge and data transfer
sequence.

Following a start condition, the master must output a

a device type identifier that is `1010' to access the

array

one bits of `0'.

next two bits are the device address.

one bit of the slave command byte is a R/W bit. The

R/W bit of the Slave Address Byte defines the opera-
tion to be performed. When the R/W bit is a one, then
a read operation is selected. A zero selects a write
operation. Refer to Figure 15.

After loading the entire Slave Address Byte from the

SDA bus, the device compares the input slave byte
data to the proper slave byte. Upon a correct com-
pare, the device outputs an acknowledge on the SDA
line.

Word Address

The word address is either supplied by the master or
obtained from an internal counter. The internal counter
is undefined on a power up condition.

Operational Notes

The device powers-up in the following state:

The device is in the low power standby state.

The WEL bit is set to `0'. In this state it is not possible

to write to the device.

SDA pin is the input mode.

RESET/RESET Signal is active for t

PURST

Data Protection

The following circuitry has been included to prevent
inadvertent writes:

The WEL bit must be set to allow write operations.

The proper clock count and bit sequence is required

prior to the stop bit in order to start a nonvolatile
write cycle.

A three step sequence is required before writing into

the Control Register to change Watchdog Timer or
block lock settings.

The WP pin, when held HIGH, and WPEN bit at logic

HIGH will prevent all writes to the Control Register.

Communication to the device is inhibited while

RESET/RESET is active and any in-progress com-
munication is terminated.

Block Lock bits can protect sections of the memory

array from write operations.

Notes: (1) The device enters the Active state after any start, and remains active until: 9 clock cycles later if the Device Select Bits in the Slave

Address Byte are incorrect; 200ns after a stop ending a read operation; or t

after a stop ending a write operation.

(2) The device goes into Standby: 200ns after any stop, except those that initiate a nonvolatile write cycle; t

after a stop that initiates

a nonvolatile cycle; or 9 clock cycles after any start that is not followed by the correct Device Select Bits in the Slave Address Byte.
