93C56A/B

2.0 PIN DESCRIPTION

2.1 Chip Select (CS)

A high level selects the device. A low level deselects

the device and forces it into standby mode. However, a

programming cycle which is already in progress will be

completed, regardless of the CS input signal. If CS is

brought low during a program cycle, the device will go

into standby mode as soon as the programming cycle

is completed.

CS must be low for 250 ns minimum (TCSL) between

consecutive instructions. If CS is low, the internal con-

trol logic is held in a RESET status.

2.2 Serial Clock (CLK)

The Serial Clock is used to synchronize the communi-

cation between a master device and the 93C56A/B.

Opcode, address, and data bits are clocked in on the

positive edge of CLK. Data bits are also clocked out on

the positive edge of CLK.

CLK can be stopped anywhere in the transmission

sequence (at high or low level) and can be continued

anytime with respect to clock high time (TCKH) and

clock low time (TCKL). This gives the controlling master

freedom in preparing opcode, address, and data.

CLK is a âDon't Careâ if CS is low (device deselected).

If CS is high, but the START condition has not been

detected, any number of clock cycles can be received

by the device without changing its status (i.e., waiting

for a START condition).

TABLE 2-1: INSTRUCTION SET FOR 93C56A

CLK cycles are not required during the self-timed

WRITE (i.e., auto ERASE/WRITE) cycle.

After detecting a START condition, the speciï¬ed num-

ber of clock cycles (respectively low to high transitions

of CLK) must be provided. These clock cycles are

required to clock in all required opcode, address, and

data bits before an instruction is executed (Table 2-1

and Table 2-2). CLK and DI then become don't care

inputs waiting for a new START condition to be

detected.

Note: CS must go low between consecutive

instructions.

2.3 Data In (DI)

Data In is used to clock in a START bit, opcode,

address, and data synchronously with the CLK input.

2.4 Data Out (DO)

Data Out is used in the READ mode to output data syn-

chronously with the CLK input (TPD after the positive

edge of CLK).

This pin also provides READY/BUSY status informa-

tion during ERASE and WRITE cycles. READY/BUSY

status information is available on the DO pin if CS is

brought high after being low for minimum chip select

low time (TCSL) and an ERASE or WRITE operation

has been initiated. The status signal is not available on

DO, if CS is held low during the entire ERASE or

WRITE cycle. In this case, DO is in the HIGH-Z mode.

If status is checked after the ERASE/WRITE cycle, the

data line will be high to indicate the device is ready.
