M24C32-DF, M24C32-W, M24C32-R, M24C32-F
Description
M24C32-x devices are I2C-compatible EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable
memories) organized as 4096 × 8 bits.
The M24C32-W operates with a supply voltage range of 2.5 V/5.5 V, the M24C32-R with a
supply voltage range of 1.8 V/5.5 V and the M24C32-F and M24C32-DF with a supply
voltage range of 1.7 V/5.5 V.
The M24C32-DF offers an additional page, named the Identification Page (32 bytes) which
can be written and (later) permanently locked in Read-only mode. This Identification Page
offers flexibility in the application board production line, as it can be used to store unique
identification parameters and/or parameters specific to the production line.

Signal description
2.1
Serial Clock (SCL)
This input signal is used to strobe all data in and out of the device. In applications where this
signal is used by slave devices to synchronize the bus to a slower clock, the bus master
must have an open drain output, and a pull-up resistor must be connected from Serial Clock
(SCL) to VCC. (Figure 4 indicates how the value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated). In
most applications, though, this method of synchronization is not employed, and so the pullup resistor is not necessary, provided that the bus master has a push-pull (rather than open
drain) output.
2.2
Serial Data (SDA)
This bidirectional signal is used to transfer data in or out of the device. It is an open drain
output that may be wire-OR’ed with other open drain or open collector signals on the bus. A
pull up resistor must be connected from Serial Data (SDA) to VCC. (Figure 4 indicates how
the value of the pull-up resistor can be calculated).
2.3
Chip Enable (E2, E1, E0)
(E2,E1,E0) input signals are used to set the value that is to be looked for on the three least
significant bits (b3, b2, b1) of the 7-bit device select code. These inputs must be tied to VCC
or VSS, to establish the device select code as shown in Figure 3. When not connected (left
floating), these inputs are read as low (0).

2.4
Write Control (WC)
This input signal is useful for protecting the entire contents of the memory from inadvertent
write operations. Write operations are disabled to the entire memory array when Write
Control (WC) is driven high. When unconnected, the signal is internally read as VIL, and
Write operations are allowed.
When Write Control (WC) is driven high, device select and Address bytes are
acknowledged, Data bytes are not acknowledged.

Signal description
VSS ground
VSS is the reference for the VCC supply voltage.
2.6
Supply voltage (VCC)
2.6.1
Operating supply voltage VCC
Prior to selecting the memory and issuing instructions to it, a valid and stable VCC voltage
within the specified [VCC(min), VCC(max)] range must be applied (see Table 7, Table 8 and
Table 9). In order to secure a stable DC supply voltage, it is recommended to decouple the
VCC line with a suitable capacitor (usually of the order of 10 nF to 100 nF) close to the
VCC/VSS package pins.
This voltage must remain stable and valid until the end of the transmission of the instruction
and, for a Write instruction, until the completion of the internal write cycle (tW).
2.6.2
Power-up conditions
The VCC voltage has to rise continuously from 0 V up to the minimum VCC operating voltage
defined in Table 7, Table 8 and Table 9. The rise time must not vary faster than 1 V/µs.
2.6.3
Device reset
In order to prevent inadvertent Write operations during power-up, a power on reset (POR)
circuit is included. At power-up (continuous rise of VCC), the device does not respond to any
instruction until VCC has reached the power on reset threshold voltage (this threshold is
lower than the minimum VCC operating voltage defined in Table 8 and Table 9). Until VCC
passes over the POR threshold, the device is reset and in Standby Power mode.
In a similar way, during power-down (continuous decay of VCC), as soon as VCC drops below
the POR threshold voltage, the device is reset and stops responding to any instruction sent
to it.
2.6.4
Power-down conditions
During power-down (continuous decay of VCC), the device must be in Standby Power mode
(mode reached after decoding a Stop condition, assuming that there is no internal Write
cycle in progress).

The device supports the I2C protocol. This is summarized in Figure 6. Any device that sends
data on to the bus is defined to be a transmitter, and any device that reads the data to be a
receiver. The device that controls the data transfer is known as the bus master, and the
other as the slave device. A data transfer can only be initiated by the bus master, which will
also provide the serial clock for synchronization. The device is always a slave in all
communications.
4.1
Start condition
Start is identified by a falling edge of Serial Data (SDA) while Serial Clock (SCL) is stable in
the high state. A Start condition must precede any data transfer command. The device
continuously monitors (except during a Write cycle) Serial Data (SDA) and Serial Clock
(SCL) for a Start condition.
4.2
Stop condition
Stop is identified by a rising edge of Serial Data (SDA) while Serial Clock (SCL) is stable
and driven high. A Stop condition terminates communication between the device and the
bus master. A Read command that is followed by NoAck can be followed by a Stop condition
to force the device into the Standby mode. A Stop condition at the end of a Write command
triggers the internal Write cycle.
4.3
Acknowledge bit (ACK)
The acknowledge bit is used to indicate a successful byte transfer. The bus transmitter,
whether it be bus master or slave device, releases Serial Data (SDA) after sending eight bits
of data. During the 9th clock pulse period, the receiver pulls Serial Data (SDA) low to
acknowledge the receipt of the eight data bits.
4.4
Data Input
During data input, the device samples Serial Data (SDA) on the rising edge of Serial Clock
(SCL). For correct device operation, Serial Data (SDA) must be stable during the rising edge
of Serial Clock (SCL), and the Serial Data (SDA) signal must change only when Serial Clock
(SCL) is driven low.

Memory addressing
To start communication between the bus master and the slave device, the bus master must
initiate a Start condition. Following this, the bus master sends the device select code, shown
in Table 2 (on Serial Data (SDA), most significant bit first).

1. The most significant bit, b7, is sent first.
2. E0, E1 and E2 are compared against the respective external pins on the memory device.
The device select code consists of a 4-bit device type identifier, and a 3-bit Chip Enable
“Address” (E2, E1, E0). The 4-bit device type identifier 1010b addresses the memory array
(M24C32 and M24C32-D), and the 4-bit device type identifier 1011b addresses the
Identification page (M24C32-D only). A device select code handling a value other than
1010b or 1011b is not acknowledged by the device.
Up to eight memory devices can be connected on a single I2C bus. Each one is given a
unique 3-bit code on the Chip Enable (E2, E1, E0) inputs. When the device select code is
received, the device only responds if the Chip Enable Address is the same as the value on
the Chip Enable (E2, E1, E0) inputs.
The 8th bit is the Read/Write bit (RW). This bit is set to 1 for Read and 0 for Write operations.
If a match occurs on the device select code, the corresponding device gives an
acknowledgment on Serial Data (SDA) during the 9th bit time. If the device does not match
the device select code, it deselects itself from the bus, and goes into Standby mode.

Write operations
Following a Start condition the bus master sends a device select code with the Read/Write
bit (RW) reset to 0. The device acknowledges this, as shown in Figure 9, and waits for two
address bytes. The device responds to each address byte with an acknowledge bit, and
then waits for the data Byte.
Each data byte in the memory has a 16-bit (two byte wide) address. The Most Significant
Byte (Table 2) is sent first, followed by the Least Significant Byte (Table 3). Bits b15 to b0
form the address of the byte in memory.
When the bus master generates a Stop condition immediately after a data byte Ack bit (in
the “10th bit” time slot), either at the end of a Byte Write or a Page Write, the internal Write
cycle is triggered. A Stop condition at any other time slot does not trigger the internal Write
cycle.
After the Stop condition, the delay tW, and the successful completion of a Write operation,
the device’s internal address counter is incremented automatically, to point to the next byte
address after the last one that was modified.
During the internal Write cycle, Serial Data (SDA) is disabled internally, and the device does
not respond to any requests.
If the Write Control input (WC) is driven High, the Write instruction is not executed and the
accompanying data bytes are not acknowledged, as shown in Figure 8.
4.7
Byte Write
After the device select code and the address bytes, the bus master sends one data byte. If
the addressed location is Write-protected, by Write Control (WC) being driven high, the
device replies with NoAck, and the location is not modified. If, instead, the addressed
location is not Write-protected, the device replies with Ack. The bus master terminates the
transfer by generating a Stop condition, as shown in Figure 9.
4.8
Page Write
The Page Write mode allows up to 32 bytes to be written in a single Write cycle, provided
that they are all located in the same ‘row’ in the memory: that is, the most significant
memory address bits (b11-b5) are the same. If more bytes are sent than will fit up to the end
of the row, a condition known as ‘roll-over’ occurs. This should be avoided, as data starts to
become overwritten in an implementation dependent way.
The bus master sends from 1 to 32 bytes of data, each of which is acknowledged by the
device if Write Control (WC) is low. If Write Control (WC) is high, the contents of the
addressed memory location are not modified, and each data byte is followed by a NoAck.
After each byte is transferred, the internal byte address counter (inside the page) is
incremented. The transfer is terminated by the bus master generating a Stop condition.

Write Identification Page (M24C32-D only)
The Identification Page (32 bytes) is an additional page which can be written and (later)
permanently locked in Read-only mode. The Identification Page is written by issuing an
Write Identification Page instruction. This instruction uses the same protocol and format as
Page Write (into memory array), except for the following differences:
●
Device type identifier = 1011b
●
MSB address bits A15/A5 are don't care except for address bit A10 which must be ‘0’.
LSB address bits A4/A0 define the byte address inside the Identification Page.
If the Identification Page is locked, the data bytes transferred during the Write Identification
Page instruction are not acknowledged (NoAck).

Lock Identification Page (M24C32-D only)
The Lock Identification Page instruction (Lock ID) permanently locks the Identification Page
in Read-only mode. The Lock ID instruction is similar to Byte Write (into memory array) with
the following specific conditions:
●
Device type identifier = 1011b
●
Address bit A10 must be ‘1’; all other address bits are don't care
●
The data byte must be equal to the binary value xxxx xx1x, where x is don't care
If the Identification Page is locked, the data bytes transferred during the Lock Identification
Page instruction are not acknowledged (NoAck).
4.11
ECC (Error Correction Code) and Write cycling
The M24C32 devices identified with the process letter K offer an ECC (Error Correction
Code) logic which compares each 4-byte word with its associated 6 EEPROM bits of ECC.
As a result, if a single bit out of 4 bytes of data happens to be erroneous during a Read
operation, the ECC detects it and replaces it by the correct value. The read reliability is
therefore much improved by the use of this feature.
Note however that even if a single byte has to be written, 4 bytes are internally modified
(plus the ECC bits), that is, the addressed byte is cycled together with the three other bytes
making up the word. It is therefore recommended to write by word (4 bytes) at address 4*N
(where N is an integer) in order to benefit from the larger amount of Write cycles.
The M24C32 devices are qualified as 1 million (1,000,000) Write cycles, using a cycling
routine that writes to the device by multiples of 4-byte words.

Minimizing system delays by polling on ACK
During the internal Write cycle, the device disconnects itself from the bus, and writes a copy
of the data from its internal latches to the memory cells. The maximum Write time (tw) is
shown in Table 17, but the typical time is shorter. To make use of this, a polling sequence can
be used by the bus master.
The sequence, as shown in Figure 10, is:
1.
Initial condition: a Write cycle is in progress.
2.
Step 1: the bus master issues a Start condition followed by a device select code (the
first byte of the new instruction).
3.
Step 2: if the device is busy with the internal Write cycle, no Ack will be returned and
the bus master goes back to Step 1. If the device has terminated the internal Write
cycle, it responds with an Ack, indicating that the device is ready to receive the second
part of the instruction (the first byte of this instruction having been sent during Step 1).

4.13
Device operation
Read operations
Read operations are performed independently of the state of the Write Control (WC) signal.
After the successful completion of a Read operation, the device’s internal address counter is
incremented by one, to point to the next byte address.
4.14
Random Address Read
A dummy Write is first performed to load the address into this address counter (as shown in
Figure 11) but without sending a Stop condition. Then, the bus master sends another Start
condition, and repeats the device select code, with the Read/Write bit (RW) set to 1. The
device acknowledges this, and outputs the contents of the addressed byte. The bus master
must not acknowledge the byte, and terminates the transfer with a Stop condition.
4.15
Current Address Read
For the Current Address Read operation, following a Start condition, the bus master only
sends a device select code with the Read/Write bit (RW) set to 1. The device acknowledges
this, and outputs the byte addressed by the internal address counter. The counter is then
incremented. The bus master terminates the transfer with a Stop condition, as shown in
Figure 11, without acknowledging the Byte.
4.16
Sequential Read
This operation can be used after a Current Address Read or a Random Address Read. The
bus master does acknowledge the data byte output, and sends additional clock pulses so
that the device continues to output the next byte in sequence. To terminate the stream of
bytes, the bus master must not acknowledge the last byte, and must generate a Stop
condition, as shown in Figure 11.
The output data comes from consecutive addresses, with the internal address counter
automatically incremented after each byte output. After the last memory address, the
address counter ‘rolls-over’, and the device continues to output data from memory
address 00h.
4.17
Read Identification Page (M24C32-D)
The Identification Page (32 bytes) is an additional page which can be written and (later)
permanently locked in Read-only mode.
The Identification Page can be read by issuing an Read Identification Page instruction. This
instruction uses the same protocol and format as the Random Address Read (from memory
array) with device type identifier defined as 1011b. The MSB address bits A15/A5 are don't
care, the LSB address bits A4/A0 define the byte address inside the Identification Page. The
number of bytes to read in the ID page must not exceed the page boundary, otherwise
unexpected data is read (e.g.: when reading the Identification Page from location 10d, the
number of bytes should be less than or equal to 22, as the ID page boundary is 32 bytes).

Read the lock status (M24C32-D)
The locked/unlocked status of the Identification page can be checked by issuing a specific
truncated command [Identification Page Write instruction + one data byte]: this data byte will
be acknowledged if the Identification page is unlocked, while it will not be acknowledged if
the Identification page is locked.
Once the acknowledge bit of this data byte is read, it is recommended to generate a Start
condition followed by a Stop condition, so that:
4.19
●
Start: the truncated command is not executed because the Start condition resets the
device internal logic,
●
Stop: the device is then set back into Standby mode by the Stop condition.
Acknowledge in Read mode
For all Read commands, the device waits, after each byte read, for an acknowledgment
during the 9th bit time. If the bus master does not drive Serial Data (SDA) low during this
time, the device terminates the data transfer and switches to its Standby mode.

1. Test conditions (in addition to those in Table 7, Table 8, Table 9 and Table 10).
2. Characterized value, not tested in production.
3. With CL = 10 pF.
4. There is no min. or max. values for the input signal rise and fall times. It is however recommended by the
I²C specification that the input signal rise and fall times be more than 20 ns and less than 300 ns when
fC < 400 kHz.
5. The new M24C32 device (identified by the process letter K) offers tCLQX = 100 ns (min) and tCLQV = 100 ns
(min), while the current device offers tCLQX = 200 ns (min) and tCLQV = 200 ns (min). Both series offer a
safe margin compared to the I2C specification which recommends tCLQV = 0 ns (min).
6. To avoid spurious Start and Stop conditions, a minimum delay is placed between SCL=1 and the falling or
rising edge of SDA.
7. tCLQV is the time (from the falling edge of SCL) required by the SDA bus line to reach either 0.3 VCC or
0.7 VCC, assuming that Rbus × Cbus time constant is within the values specified in Figure 4.
8. WC=0 set up time condition to enable the execution of a WRITE command.
9. WC=0 hold time condition to enable the execution of a WRITE command.
10. The current M24C32 device offers tNS=100 ns (max), the new M24C32 device (identified by the process
letter K) offers tNS=80 ns (max). Both products offer a safe margin compared to the 50 ns minimum value
recommended by the I2C specification.
