bytes each. Random word addressing requires a 8-bit data word address.

Device Operation

CLOCK and DATA TRANSITIONS: The SDA pin is normally pulled high with an exter-

nal device. Data on the SDA pin may change only during SCL low time periods (see

Figure 4 on page 7). 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 (see Figure 5 on page 8).

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 (see Figure 5 on page 8).

ACKNOWLEDGE: All addresses and data words are serially transmitted to and from

the EEPROM in 8-bit words. The EEPROM sends a zero to acknowledge that it has

received each word. This happens during the ninth clock cycle.

STANDBY MODE: The AT34C02B features a low-power standby mode which is

enabled: (a) upon power-up or (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

Two-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.
