Device Addressing

A control byte is the first byte received following the

start condition from the master device. The control byte

consists of a 4-bit control code; for the 24C32A this is

set as 1010 binary for read and write (R/W) operations.

The next three bits of the control byte are the device

select bits (A2, A1, A0). They are used by the master

device to select which of the eight devices are to be

accessed. These bits are in effect the three most signif-

icant bits of the word address. The last bit of the control

byte defines the operation to be performed. When set

to a one a read operation is selected, and when set to

a zero a write operation is selected. The next two bytes

received define the address of the first data byte

(Figure 3-3). Because only A11...A0 are used, the

upper four address bits must be zeros. The most signif-

icant bit of the most significant byte of the address is

transferred first.

SLAVE ADDRESS

Following the start condition, the 24C32A monitors the

SDA bus checking the device type identifier being

transmitted. Upon receiving a 1010 code and appropri-

ate device select bits, the slave device outputs an

acknowledge signal on the SDA line. Depending on the

state of the R/W bit, the 24C32A will select a read or

write operation.
