2
• Save Critical Data with Programmable
Block Lock Protection
—Block Lock (0, 1/4, 1/2, or all of E PROM Array)
The X24320 is a CMOS Serial E PROM, internally
organized 4K x 8. The device features a serial inter-
face and software protocol allowing operation on a
simple two wire bus. The bus operates at 400 KHz all
the way down to 1.8V.

A Write Protect Register at the highest address loca-
tion, FFFFh, provides three write protection features:
Software Write Protect, Block Lock Protect, and
Programmable Hardware Write Protect. The Software
Write Protect feature prevents any nonvolatile writes to
the device until the WEL bit in the Write Protect
Register is set. The Block Lock Protection feature
gives the user four array block protect options, set by
programming two bits in the Write Protect Register.
The Programmable Hardware Write Protect feature
allows the user to install the device with WP tied to
• 32 Word Page Write Mode
—Minimizes Total Write Time Per Word
• Internally Organized 4K x 8
• Bidirectional Data Transfer Protocol
• Self-Timed Write Cycle
V
, write to and Block Lock the desired portions of
CC
the memory array in circuit, and then enable the In
Circuit Programmable ROM Mode by programming the
WPEN bit HIGH in the Write Protect Register. After
this, the Block Locked portions of the array, including
the Write Protect Register itself, are permanently
protected from being erased.
—Typical Write Cycle Time of 5ms
• High Reliability
—Endurance: 100,000 Cycles
—Data Retention: 100Years
• 8-Lead SOIC
• 14-Lead TSSOP
• 8-Lead PDIP
