A ferroelectric random access memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile and performs reads and writes similar to a RAM. It provides reliable data retention for 151 years while eliminating the complexities, overhead, and system-level reliability problems caused by EEPROM and other nonvolatile memories. Fast 2-wire Serial interface (I2C) Up to 1-MHz frequency 2 Direct hardware replacement for serial (I C) EEPROM Supports legacy timings for 100 kHz and 400 kHz Low power consumption 100 A active current at 100 kHz 4 A (typ) standby current Voltage operation: VDD = 4.5 V to 5.5 V Industrial temperature: -40 C to +85 C Unlike EEPROM, the FM24C16B performs write operations at bus speed. No write delays are incurred. Data is written to the memory array immediately after each byte is successfully transferred to the device. The next bus cycle can commence without the need for data polling. In addition, the product offers substantial write endurance compared with other nonvolatile memories. Also, F-RAM exhibits much lower power during writes than EEPROM since write operations do not require an internally elevated power supply voltage for write circuits. The FM24C16B is capable of supporting 1014 read/write cycles, or 100 million times more write cycles than EEPROM. 8-pin small outline integrated circuit (SOIC) package Restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS) compliant These capabilities make the FM24C16B ideal for nonvolatile memory applications, requiring frequent or rapid writes. Examples range from data logging, where the number of write cycles may be critical, to demanding industrial controls where the long write time of EEPROM can cause data loss. The combination of features allows more frequent data writing with less overhead for the system. The FM24C16B provides substantial benefits to users of serial (I2C) EEPROM as a hardware drop-in replacement. The device specifications are guaranteed over an industrial temperature range of -40 C to +85 C.

Document Number: 001-84450 Rev. *E Page 3 of 17 FM24C16B Overview The FM24C16B is a serial F-RAM memory. The memory array is logically organized as 2,048 x 8 bits and is accessed using an industry-standard I2C interface. The functional operation of the F-RAM is similar to serial (I2C) EEPROM. The major difference between the FM24C16B and a serial (I2C) EEPROM with the same pinout is the F-RAM's superior write performance, high endurance, and low power consumption. Memory Architecture When accessing the FM24C16B, the user addresses 2K locations of eight data bits each. These eight data bits are shifted in or out serially. The addresses are accessed using the I2C protocol, which includes a slave address (to distinguish other non-memory devices), a row address, and a segment address. The row address consists of 8-bits that specify one of the 256 rows. The 3-bit segment address specifies one of the 8 segments within each row. The complete address of 11-bits specifies each byte address uniquely. The access time for the memory operation is essentially zero, beyond the time needed for the serial protocol. That is, the memory is read or written at the speed of the I2C bus. Unlike a serial (I2C) EEPROM, it is not necessary to poll the device for a ready condition because writes occur at bus speed. By the time a new bus transaction can be shifted into the device, a write operation is complete. This is explained in more detail in the interface section. Note that the FM24C16B contains no power management circuits other than a simple internal power-on reset. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that VDD is within data sheet tolerances to prevent incorrect operation. I2C Interface The FM24C16B employs a bi-directional I2C bus protocol using few pins or board space. Figure 2 illustrates a typical system configuration using the FM24C16B in a microcontroller-based system. The industry standard I2C bus is familiar to many users but is described in this section. By convention, any device that is sending data onto the bus is the transmitter while the target device for this data is the receiver. The device that is controlling the bus is the master. The master is responsible for generating the clock signal for all operations. Any device on the bus that is being controlled is a slave. The FM24C16B is always a slave device. The bus protocol is controlled by transition states in the SDA and SCL signals. There are four conditions including START, STOP, data bit, or acknowledge. Figure 3 and Figure 4 illustrates the signal conditions that specify the four states. Detailed timing diagrams are shown in the electrical specifications section. Figure 2. System Configuration using Serial (I2C) nvSRAM V DD RPmin = (VDD - VOLmax) / IOL RPmax = tr / (0.8473 * Cb) SCL Microcontroller SDA SCL SDA FM24C16B SCL SDA Other Slave Device STOP Condition (P) START Condition (S) A STOP condition is indicated when the bus master drives SDA from LOW to HIGH while the SCL signal is HIGH. All operations using the FM24C16B should end with a STOP condition. If an operation is in progress when a STOP is asserted, the operation will be aborted. The master must have control of SDA in order to assert a STOP condition. A START condition is indicated when the bus master drives SDA from HIGH to LOW while the SCL signal is HIGH. All commands should be preceded by a START condition. An operation in progress can be aborted by asserting a START condition at any time. Aborting an operation using the START condition will ready the FM24C16B for a new operation. If during operation the power supply drops below the specified VDD minimum, the system should issue a START condition prior to performing another operation.

Data Transfer on the I2C Bus handbook, full pagewidth P SDA Acknowledgement signal from slave MSB SCL S 1 2 7 9 8 1 Acknowledgement signal from receiver 2 3 4-8 ACK START condition 9 ACK All data transfers (including addresses) take place while the SCL signal is HIGH. Except under the two conditions described above, the SDA signal should not change while SCL is HIGH. Acknowledge / No-acknowledge The acknowledge takes place after the 8th data bit has been transferred in any transaction. During this state the transmitter should release the SDA bus to allow the receiver to drive it. The receiver drives the SDA signal LOW to acknowledge receipt of the byte. If the receiver does not drive SDA LOW, the condition is a no-acknowledge and the operation is aborted. S or P STOP or START condition Byte complete Data/Address Transfer S The receiver would fail to acknowledge for two distinct reasons. First is that a byte transfer fails. In this case, the no-acknowledge ceases the current operation so that the device can be addressed again. This allows the last byte to be recovered in the event of a communication error. Second and most common, the receiver does not acknowledge to deliberately end an operation. For example, during a read operation, the FM24C16B will continue to place data onto the bus as long as the receiver sends acknowledges (and clocks). When a read operation is complete and no more data is needed, the receiver must not acknowledge the last byte. If the receiver acknowledges the last byte, this will cause the FM24C16B to attempt to drive the bus on the next clock while the master is sending a new command such as STOP. Figure 5.

As shown in Figure 6, the slave address contains the device type , the page of memory to be accessed, and a bit that specifies if the transaction is a read or a write. will end the read operation. For a write operation, the FM24C16B will accept 8 data bits from the master then send an acknowledge. All data transfer occurs MSB (most significant bit) first. Memory Operation Bits 7-4 are the device type and should be set to 1010b for the FM24C16B. These bits allow other function types to reside on the I2C bus within an identical address range. Bits 3-1 are the page select. It specifies the 256-byte block of memory that is targeted for the current operation. Bit 0 is the read/write bit (R/W). R/W = `1' indicates a read operation and R/W = `0' indicates a write operation. The FM24C16B is designed to operate in a manner very similar to other I2C interface memory products. The major differences result from the higher performance write capability of F-RAM technology. These improvements result in some differences between the FM24C16B and a similar configuration EEPROM during writes. The complete operation for both writes and reads is explained below. Figure 6. Memory Slave Device Address Write Operation MSB handbook, halfpage 1 LSB 0 1 Slave ID 0 A2 A1 All writes begin with a slave address, then a word address. The bus master indicates a write operation by setting the LSB of the slave address (R/W bit) to a '0'. After addressing, the bus master sends each byte of data to the memory and the memory generates an acknowledge condition. Any number of sequential bytes may be written. If the end of the address range is reached internally, the address counter will wrap from 7FFh to 000h. A0 R/W Page Select Addressing Overview (Word Address) After the FM24C16B (as receiver) acknowledges the slave address, the master can place the word address on the bus for a write operation. The word address is the lower 8-bits of the address to be combined with the 3-bits page select to specify exactly the byte to be written. The complete 11-bit address is latched internally. No word address occurs for a read operation, though the 3-bit page select is latched internally. Reads always use the lower 8-bits that are held internally in the address latch. That is, reads always begin at the address following the previous access. A random read address can be loaded by doing a write operation as explained below. After transmission of each data byte, just prior to the acknowledge, the FM24C16B increments the internal address latch. This allows the next sequential byte to be accessed with no additional addressing. After the last address (7FFh) is reached, the address latch will roll over to 000h. There is no limit to the number of bytes that can be accessed with a single read or write operation. Data Transfer After the address bytes have been transmitted, data transfer between the bus master and the FM24C16B can begin. For a read operation the FM24C16B will place 8 data bits on the bus then wait for an acknowledge from the master. If the acknowledge occurs, the FM24C16B will transfer the next sequential byte. If the acknowledge is not sent, the FM24C16B Unlike other nonvolatile memory technologies, there is no effective write delay with F-RAM. Since the read and write access times of the underlying memory are the same, the user experiences no delay through the bus. The entire memory cycle occurs in less time than a single bus clock. Therefore, any operation including read or write can occur immediately following a write. Acknowledge polling, a technique used with EEPROMs to determine if a write is complete is unnecessary and will always return a ready condition. Internally, an actual memory write occurs after the 8th data bit is transferred. It will be complete before the acknowledge is sent. Therefore, if the user desires to abort a write without altering the memory contents, this should be done using START or STOP condition prior to the 8th data bit. The FM24C16B uses no page buffering. The memory array can be write-protected using the WP pin. Setting the WP pin to a HIGH condition (VDD) will write-protect all addresses. The FM24C16B will not acknowledge data bytes that are written to protected addresses. In addition, the address counter will not increment if writes are attempted to these addresses. Setting WP to a LOW state (VSS) will disable the write protect. WP is pulled down internally. Figure 7 and Figure 8 below illustrate a single-byte and multiple-byte write cycles. Figure 7.

Multi-Byte Write By Master Start S Address & Data Slave Address 0 A Stop Word Address A Data Byte By F-RAM A Data Byte A P Acknowledge Read Operation There are two basic types of read operations. They are current address read and selective address read. In a current address read, the FM24C16B uses the internal address latch to supply the lower 8 address bits. In a selective read, the user performs a procedure to set these lower address bits to a specific value. Current Address & Sequential Read As mentioned above the FM24C16B uses an internal latch to supply the lower 8 address bits for a read operation. A current address read uses the existing value in the address latch as a starting place for the read operation. The system reads from the address immediately following that of the last operation. To perform a current address read, the bus master supplies a slave address with the LSB set to a '1'. This indicates that a read operation is requested. The three page select bits in the slave address specifies the block of memory that is used for the read operation. After receiving the complete slave address, the FM24C16B will begin shifting out data from the current address on the next clock. The current address is the 3-bits from the slave address combined with the 8-bits that were in the internal address latch. address read with multiple byte transfers. After each byte the internal address counter will be incremented. Note Each time the bus master acknowledges a byte, this indicates that the FM24C16B should read out the next sequential byte. There are four ways to properly terminate a read operation. Failing to properly terminate the read will most likely create a bus contention as the FM24C16B attempts to read out additional data onto the bus. The four valid methods are: 1. The bus master issues a no-acknowledge in the 9th clock cycle and a STOP in the 10th clock cycle. This is illustrated in the diagrams below. This is preferred. 2. The bus master issues a no-acknowledge in the 9th clock cycle and a START in the 10th. 3. The bus master issues a STOP in the 9th clock cycle. 4. The bus master issues a START in the 9th clock cycle. If the internal address reaches 7FFh, it will wrap around to 000h on the next read cycle. Figure 9 and Figure 10 below show the proper operation for current address reads. Beginning with the current address, the bus master can read any number of bytes. Thus, a sequential read is simply a current Figure 9. Current Address Read By Master Start No Acknowledge Address Stop S Slave Address By F-RAM 1 A Acknowledge Data Byte 1 P Data Figure 10. Sequential Read By Master Start Address No Acknowledge Acknowledge Stop S Slave Address By F-RAM Document Number: 001-84450 Rev. *E 1 A Acknowledge Data Byte A Data Byte 1 P Data Page 7 of 17 FM24C16B Selective (Random) Read There is a simple technique that allows a user to select a random address location as the starting point for a read operation. This involves using the first two bytes of a write operation to set the internal address followed by subsequent read operations. To perform a selective read, the bus master sends out the slave address with the LSB (R/W) set to 0. This specifies a write operation. According to the write protocol, the bus master then sends the word address byte that is loaded into the internal address latch. After the FM24C16B acknowledges the word address, the bus master issues a START condition. This simultaneously aborts the write operation and allows the read command to be issued with the slave address LSB set to a '1'. The operation is now a current address read. Figure 11. Selective (Random) Read By Master Address Start Start Address No Acknowledge Acknowledge Stop S Slave Address 0 A By F-RAM Word Address A S Acknowledge Endurance The FM24C16B internally operates with a read and restore mechanism. Therefore, endurance cycles are applied for each read or write cycle. The memory architecture is based on an array of rows and columns. Each read or write access causes an endurance cycle for an entire row. In the FM24C16B, a row is 64 bits wide. Every 8-byte boundary marks the beginning of a new Document Number: 001-84450 Rev. *E Slave Address 1 A Data Byte A Data Byte 1 P Data row. Endurance can be optimized by ensuring frequently accessed data is located in different rows. Regardless, FRAM read and write endurance is effectively unlimited at the 1MHz I2C speed. Even at 3000 accesses per second to the same row, 10 years time will elapse before 1 trillion endurance cycles occur.
