3.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The 24XX1025 supports a bidirectional 2-wire bus and
data transmission protocol. A device that sends data
onto the bus is defined as a transmitter and a device
receiving data as a receiver. The bus must be
controlled by a master device which generates the
Serial Clock (SCL), controls the bus access, and
generates the Start and Stop conditions while the
24XX1025 works as a slave. Both master and slave
can operate as a transmitter or receiver, but the master
device determines which mode is activated.

7.0 ACKNOWLEDGE POLLING FIGURE 7-1: ACKNOWLEDGE
POLLING FLOW
Since the device will not acknowledge during a write
cycle, this can be used to determine when the cycle is
complete. (This feature can be used to maximize bus
throughput.) Once the Stop condition for a Write
command has been issued from the master, the device Send
initiates the internally timed write cycle. ACK polling Write Command
can be initiated immediately. This involves the master
sending a Start condition, followed by the control byte
for a Write command (R/W = 0). If the device is still Send Stop
busy with the write cycle, then no ACK will be returned. Condition to
If no ACK is returned, then the Start bit and control byte Initiate Write Cycle
must be resent. If the cycle is complete, then the device
will return the ACK and the master can then proceed
with the next Read or Write command. See Figure 7-1 Send Start
for flow diagram.
Note: Care must be taken when polling the
24XX1025. The control byte that was Send Control Byte
used to initiate the write needs to match with R/W = 0
the control byte used for polling.

Note: In the event the full Microchip part number cannot be marked on one line, it will
be carried over to the next line, thus limiting the number of available
characters for customer-specific information.

* Standard marking consists of Microchip part number, year code, week code, traceability code (facility
code, mask rev#, and assembly code). For marking beyond this, certain price adders apply. Please
check with your Microchip Sales Office.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
• Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.

• Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.

• There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.

• Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.

• Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
