X25138

128K X25138 16K x 8 Bit 5MHz SPI Serial E2PROM with Block LockTM Protection FEATURES DESCRIPTION The X25138 is a CMOS 128K-bit serial E2PROM, internally organized as 16K x 8. The X25138 features a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) and software protocol allowing operation on a simple three-wire bus. The bus signals are a clock input (SCK) plus separate data in (SI) and data out (SO) lines. Access to the device is controlled through a chip select (CS) input, allowing any number of devices to share the same bus. The X25138 also features two additional inputs that provide the end user with added flexibility. By asserting the HOLD input, the X25138 will ignore transitions on its inputs, thus allowing the host to service higher priority interrupts. The WP input can be used as a hardwire input to the X25138 disabling all write attempts to the status register, thus providing a mechanism for limiting end user capability of altering 0, 1/4, 1/2 or all of the memory. The X25138 utilizes Xicor’s proprietary Direct WriteTM cell, providing a minimum endurance of 100,000 cycles and a minimum data retention of 100 years. 5MHz Clock Rate Low Power CMOS <1mA Standby Current <5mA Active Current 2.5V To 5.5V Power Supply SPI Modes (0,0 & 1,1) 16K X 8 Bits 32 Byte Page Mode Block Lock™ Protection Protect 1/4, 1/2 or all of E2PROM Array Programmable Hardware Write Protection In-Circuit Programmable ROM Mode Built-in Inadvertent Write Protection Power-Up/Down protection ...
