NM34W02

NM34W02 2K-Bit Standard 2-Wire Bus Interface Serial EEPROM with Full Array Write Protect March 1999 NM34W02 2K-Bit Standard 2-Wire Bus Interface Serial EEPROM with Full Array Write Protect Designed with Permanent Write-Protection for First 128 Bytes for Serial Presence Detect Application on Memory Modules (PC100 Compliant) General Description The NM34W02 is 2048 bits of CMOS non-volatile electrically erasable memory. This device is specifically designed to support Serial Presence Detect circuitry in memory modules. This communications protocol uses CLOCK (SCL) and DATA I/O (SDA) lines to synchronously clock data between the master (for example a microprocessor) and the slave EEPROM device(s). The contents of the non-volatile memory allows the CPU to determine the capacity of the module and the electrical characteristics of the memory devices it contains. This will enable "plug and play" capability as the module is read and PC main memory resources utilized through the memory controller. The first 128 bytes of the memory of the NM34W02 can be permanently Write Protected by writing to the "WRITE PROTECT" Register. Write Protect implementation details are described under the section titled Addressing the WP Register. In addition, like the NM24Wxx product family, the entire memory array can be write-protected through "WP" pin. The NM34W02 is available in a JEDEC standard TSSOP package for low profile memory modules for systems requiring efficient space utilization such as in a ...
