6.7.2.3 Storage Operations
T he S tore operation only copies the 8 LAN address
regis ters to the E E R OM. T his does not depend
upon INIT jumper s ettings . T he s tore operation
always moves the LAN Addres s regis ters into the
bank s elected by the 4-bit E A field.
Table 6-5 defines how each bank of 8 E E R OM
locations has been allocated:

Unlocking the E E R OM F or Write Operations
T his convoluted method is used to protect the
E E R OM from getting accidentally eras ed by
s omeone els e’s s oftware.
T he E E R OM regis ter (E E R ) looks like this :
BIT
EER WRITE
7 STO
6 RC
5 EA4
4 UNLOCK
3 EA3
2 EA2
1 EA1
0 EA0
RESET

T he s cheme requires a s equence of three writes
into the E E R OM regis ter to s tart a s tore operation.
T hefirs t two writes are requiredtos et theUNLOCK
bit and the third write executes the store.
T he 1s t write must be:
STORE=0, RECALL=0, EA4=X, UNLOCK=0,
EA[3–0] = Ch.
T he 2nd write mus t be:
STORE=0, RECALL=0, EA4=X, UNLOCK=1,
EA[3–0] = Ah.
T he 3rd write is :
STORE=1, RECALL=0, UNLOCK=0, EA[4–0] =
EEROM bank.
T hevaluefor theE A4-E A0 fieldis theE E R OMbank
you intend to store in it.
T hewritingof any other valuetotheE E R other than
the required ones in the s equence will s et the
locking mechanism back to its initial condition and
all three writes will once again be required in
s equencetounlock thewriteprotection. Intervening
I/O operations to other registers and reads of the
E E R OM regis ter donot affect theunlock s equence.
