Serial Read Operations
The read operation allows the master to access the control
register. To conform to the I
2
C standard, prior to issu-
ing the slave address byte with the R/W bit set to one,
the master must first perform a “dummy” write opera-
tion. The master issues the start condition and the
slave address byte, receives an acknowledge, then
issues the byte address. After acknowledging receipt
of the byte address, the master immediately issues
another start condition and the slave address byte with
the R/W bit set to one. This is followed by an acknowl-
edge from the device and then by the eight bit control
register. The master terminates the read operation by

not responding with an acknowledge and then issuing

Operational Notes
The device powers-up in the following state:
– The device is in the low power standby state.
– The WEL bit is set to ‘0’. In this state it is not possi-
ble to write to the device.
– SDA pin is the input mode.
RESET/RESET signal is active for t

Data Protection
The following circuitry has been included to prevent
inadvertent writes:
– The WEL bit must be set to allow a write operation.
– The proper clock count and bit sequence is required
prior to the stop bit in order to start a nonvolatile
write cycle.
– A three step sequence is required before writing into
the control register to change watchdog timer or
block lock settings.
– The WP pin, when held HIGH, prevents all writes to
the control register.
– Communication to the device is inhibited below the
V
TRIP
voltage.
– Command to change the control register are termi-
nated if in-progress when RESET/RESET go active.
