A control byte is the first byte received following the
Start condition from the master device (Figure 5-3).
The control byte begins with a four-bit control code. For
the 24XX, this is set as ‘
operations. The next three bits of the control byte are
the block-select bits (B2, B1, B0). They are used by the
master device to select which of the 256-word blocks of
memory are to be accessed. These bits are in effect the
three Most Significant bits of the word address. Note
that B2, B1 and B0 are “don’t care” for the 24XX00, the
24XX01 and 24XX02. B2 and B1 are “don’t care” for
the 24XX04. B2 is “don’t care” for the 24XX08.

The last bit of the control byte defines the operation to
be performed. When set to ‘

Following the Start condition, the 24XX monitors the
SDA bus. Upon receiving a ‘
select bits and the R/W bit, the slave device outputs an
Acknowledge signal on the SDA line. The address byte
follows the acknowledge.
