DEVICE ADDRESSING

A control byte is the first byte received following the

Start condition from the master device (Figure 5-1).

The control byte consists of a 4-bit control code. For the

24AA044, this is set as ‘1010’ binary for read and write

operations. The next two bits of the control byte are the

Chip Select bits (A2, A1). The Chip Select bits allow the

use of up to four 24AA044 devices on the same bus

and are used to select which device is accessed. The

Chip Select bits in the control byte must correspond to

the logic levels on the corresponding A2 and A1 pins

for the device to respond. These bits are in effect the

two Most Significant bits of the array address.

The next bit of the control byte is the block select bit

(B0). This bit acts as the A8 address bit for accessing

the entire array.

The last bit of the control byte defines the operation to

be performed. When set to a one, a read operation is

selected. When set to a zero, a write operation is

selected. Following the Start condition, the 24AA044

monitors the SDA bus checking the control byte being

transmitted. Upon receiving a ‘1010’ code and appro-

priate Chip Select bits, the slave device outputs an

Acknowledge signal on the SDA line. Depending on the

state of the R/W bit, the 24AA044 will select a read or

write operation.

Contiguous Addressing Across

Multiple Devices

The Chip Select bits A2 and A1 can be used to expand

the contiguous address space for up to 16K bits by add-

ing up to four 24AA044 devices on the same bus. In this

case, software can use A1 of the control byte as

address bit A9, and A2 as address bit A10. It is not
