WRITE
WRITE CYCLE TIMING
Write operations are initiated when both CS# and WE# are low
and OE# is high. The EEPROM devices support both a CS# and
WE# controlled write cycle. The address is latched by the falling
edge of either CS# or WE#, whichever occurs last.
Figures 6 and 7 show the write cycle timing relationships. A write
cycle begins with address application, write enable and chip select.
Chip select is accomplished by placing the CS# line low. Write
enable consists of setting the WE line low. The write cycle begins
when the last of either CS# or WE# goes low.
The data is latched internally by the rising edge of either CS#
or WE#, whichever occurs first. A byte write operation will
automatically continue to completion.
The WE# line transition from high to low also initiates an internal
150μsec delay timer to permit page mode operation. Each
subsequent WE# transition from high to low that occurs before the
completion of the 150μsec time out will restart the timer from zero.
The operation of the timer is the same as a retriggerable one-shot.
