FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The X24645 is a CMOS 65,536-bit serial E2PROM,
internally organized 8192 x 8. The X24645 features a
•2.7V to 5.5V Power Supply
•Low Power CMOS
—Active Read Current Less Than 1mA
—Active Write Current Less Than 3mA
serial interface and software protocol allowing operation
on a simple two wire bus.
—Standby Current Less Than 1∝A
•Internally Organized 8192 x 8
•New Programmable Block Lock Protection
—Software Write Protection
—Programmable hardware Write Protect
Two device select inputs (S1, S2) allow up to four
devices to share a common two wire bus.
A Write Protect Register at the highest address location,
1FFFh, provides three new write protection

features: Software Write Protect, Block Write Protect, and
Hardware Write Protect. The Software Write

Protect feature prevents any nonvolatile writes to the
X24645 until the WEL bit in the write protect register is
•Bidirectional Data Transfer Protocol
•32 Byte Page Write Mode
—Minimizes Total Write Time Per Byte
•Self Timed Write Cycle
—Typical Write Cycle Time of 5ms
•High Reliability
—Endurance: 100,000 Cycles
—Data Retention: 100 Years

set. The Block Write Protection feature allows the user to
individually write protect four blocks of the array by
programming two bits in the write protect register. The
Programmable Hardware Write Protect feature allows
the user to install the X24645 with WP tied to VCC,
program the entire memory array in place, and then
enable the hardware write protection by programming a
WPEN bit in the write protect register. After this,
—8-Lead PDIP
selected blocks of the array, including the write protect
register itself, are permanently write protected, as long
as WP remains HIGH.
