6.0
6.1
Following the Start signal from the master, the device
code(4 bits), the Chip Select bits (3 bits) and the R/W
bit (which is a logic-low) is placed onto the bus by the
master transmitter. The device will acknowledge this
control byte during the ninth clock pulse. The next byte
transmitted by the master is the word address and will
be written into the Address Pointer of the 24AA024/
24LC024/24AA025/24LC025. After receiving another
Acknowledge signal from the 24AA024/24LC024/
24AA025/24LC025, the master device will transmit the
data word to be written into the addressed memory
location. The 24AA024/24LC024/24AA025/24LC025
acknowledges again and the master generates a Stop
condition. This initiates the internal write cycle and, dur-
ing
24LC025 will not generate Acknowledge signals
(Figure 6-1). If an attempt is made to write to the
protected portion of the array when the hardware write
protection (24XX024 only) has been enabled, the
device will acknowledge the command, but no data will
be written. The write cycle time must be observed even
if write protection is enabled.
6.2
The write control byte, word address and the first data
byte are transmitted to the 24AA024/24LC024/
24AA025/24LC025 in the same way as in a byte write.
However, instead of generating a Stop condition, the
master transmits up to 15 additional data bytes to the
24AA024/24LC024/24AA025/24LC025,
temporarily stored in the on-chip page buffer and will be
written into the memory once the master has transmit-
ted a Stop condition. Upon receipt of each word, the
four lower-order Address Pointer bits are internally
incremented by one.

The higher-order four bits of the word address remain
constant. If the master should transmit more than 16
bytes prior to generating the Stop condition, the
address counter will roll over and the previously
received data will be overwritten. As with the byte-write
operation, once the Stop condition is received, an
internal write cycle will begin (Figure 6-2). If an attempt
is made to write to the protected portion of the array
when the hardware write protection has been enabled,
the device will acknowledge the command, but no data
will be written. The write cycle time must be observed
even if write protection is enabled.
6.3
The WP pin (available on 24XX024 only) must be tied
to V
write-protected. If the WP pin is tied to V
operations to all address locations are allowed.
The WP pin is not available on the SOT-23 package.

Page write operations are limited to writing
bytes within a single physical page,
regardless of the number of bytes
actually being written. Physical page
boundaries start at addresses that are
integer multiples of the page buffer size (or
‘page size’) and end at addresses that are
integer multiples of [page size – 1]. If a
Page Write command attempts to write
across a physical page boundary, the
result is that the data wraps around to the
beginning of the current page (overwriting
data previously stored there), instead of
being written to the next page, as might be
expected. It is therefore necessary for the
application software to prevent page write
operations that would attempt to cross a
page boundary.
