DESCRIPTION
required to access the device. The HOLD pin may be
used to suspend any serial communication without
resetting the serial sequence. The CAT25C32/64 is
designed with software and hardware write protection
features including Block write protection. The device is
available in 8-pin DIP, 8-pin SOIC, 14-pin TSSOP and
20-pin TSSOP packages.
The CAT25C32/64 is a 32K/64K-Bit SPI Serial CMOS
EEPROM internally organized as 4Kx8/8Kx8 bits.
Catalyst’s advanced CMOS Technology substantially
reduces device power requirements. The CAT25C32/
64 features a 64-byte page write buffer. The device
operates via the SPI bus serial interface and is enabled
thoughaChipSelect(CS). InadditiontotheChipSelect,
the clock input (SCK), data in (SI) and data out (SO) are
