* 25XX256 is used in this document as a generic part number
for the 25AA256/25LC256 devices.
Description:
The Microchip Technology Inc. 25AA256/25LC256
(25XX256*) are 256 Kbit Serial Electrically Erasable
PROMs. The memory is accessed via a simple Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI) compatible serial bus. The
bus signals required are a clock input (SCK) plus
separate data in (SI) and data out (SO) lines. Access to
the device is controlled through a Chip Select (CS)
input.
Communication to the device can be paused via the
hold pin (HOLD). While the device is paused,
transitions on its inputs will be ignored, with the
exception of Chip Select, allowing the host to service
higher priority interrupts.
The 25XX256 is available in standard packages includ-
ing 8-lead PDIP and SOIC, and advanced packaging
including 8-lead DFN and 8-lead TSSOP.
