Read operations are initiated in the same way as write
operations with the exception that the R/W bit of the
control byte is set to one. There are three basic types
of read operations: current address read, random read,
and sequential read.
8.1
The 24XX515 contains an address counter that main-
tains the address of the last word accessed, internally
incremented by one. Therefore, if the previous read
access was to address n (n is any legal address), the
next current address read operation would access data
from address n + 1.
Upon receipt of the control byte with R/W bit set to one,
the 24XX515 issues an acknowledge and transmits the
8-bit data word. The master will not acknowledge the
transfer but does generate a Stop condition and the
24XX515 discontinues transmission (Figure 8-1).

Random read operations allow the master to access
any memory location in a random manner. To perform
this type of read operation, first the word address must
be set. This is done by sending the word address to the
24XX515 as part of a write operation (R/W bit set to 0).
After the word address is sent, the master generates a
Start condition following the acknowledge. This termi-
nates the write operation, but not before the internal
address pointer is set. Then, the master issues the
control byte again but with the R/W bit set to a one. The
24XX515 will then issue an acknowledge and transmit
the 8-bit data word. The master will not acknowledge
the transfer but does generate a Stop condition which
causes the 24XX515 to discontinue transmission
(Figure 8-2). After a random Read command, the inter-
nal address counter will point to the address location
following the one that was just read.
8.3
Sequential reads are initiated in the same way as a
random read except that after the 24XX515 transmits
the first data byte, the master issues an acknowledge
as opposed to the Stop condition used in a random
read. This acknowledge directs the 24XX515 to trans-
mit the next sequentially addressed 8-bit word
(Figure 8-3). Following the final byte transmitted to the
master, the master will NOT generate an acknowledge
but will generate a Stop condition. To provide sequen-
tial reads, the 24XX515 contains an internal address
pointer which is incremented by one at the completion
of each operation. This address pointer allows half the
memory contents to be serially read during one opera-
tion. Sequential read address boundaries are 0000h to
7FFFh and 8000h to FFFFh. The internal address
pointer will automatically roll over from address 7FFF to
address 0000 if the master acknowledges the byte
received from the array address 7FFF. The internal
address counter will automatically roll over from
address FFFFh to address 8000h if the master
acknowledges the byte received from the array
address FFFFh.
