IS93C46D
1-KBIT SERIAL ELECTRICALLY
ERASABLE PROM
PRELIMINARYINFORMATION
JANUARY 2007
FEATURES
• Industry-standard Microwire Interface
— Non-volatile data storage
DESCRIPTION
®
The IS93C46D is a 1Kb non-volatile, ISSI serial
EEPROM. It is fabricated using an enhanced
CMOS design and process. The IS93C46D
contains power-efficient read/write memory, and
organization of 128 bytes of 8 bits or 64 words of
16 bits. When the ORG pin is connected to Vcc
or left unconnected, x16 is selected; when it is
connected to ground, x8 is selected.
— Wide voltage operation:
Vcc = 1.8V to 5.5V
— Full TTL compatible inputs and outputs
— Auto increment for efficient data dump
• User Configured Memory Organization
— By 16-bit or by 8-bit
• Hardware and software write protection
— Defaults to write-disabled state at power-up
— Software instructions for write-enable/disable
• Enhanced low voltage CMOS E2PROM
technology
• Versatile, easy-to-use Interface
— Self-timed programming cycle
— Automatic erase-before-write
— Programming status indicator
— Word and chip erasable
An instruction set defines the operation of the
devices, including read, write, and mode-enable
functions. To protect against inadvertent data
modification, all erase and write instructions are
accepted only while the device is write-enabled. A
selected x8 byte or x16 word can be modified with
a single WRITE or ERASE instruction.
Additionally, the two instructions WRITE ALL or
ERASE ALL can program the entire array. Once
a device begins its self-timed program procedure,
the data out pin (Dout) can indicate the READY/
BUSY status by raising chip select (CS). The self-
timed write cycle includes an automatic erase-
before-write capability. The device can output any
number of consecutive bytes/words using a single
READ instruction.
— Chip select enables power savings
• Durable and reliable
— 40-year data retention after 1M write cycles
— 1 million write cycles
— Unlimited read cycles
— Schmitt-trigger inputs
• Lead-free available
