Note: 
1. The exposed pad on this package can be connected to GND or left floating.
2. The Write-Protect (WP) and Hold (HOLD) pins should be driven high or low as appropriate.
2.1 Chip Select (CS)
The AT25512 is selected when the Chip Select (CS) pin is low. When the device is not selected, data will
not be accepted via the Serial Data Input (SI) pin, and the Serial Output (SO) pin will remain in a high-
impedance state.
To ensure robust operation, the CS pin should follow VCC upon power-up. It is therefore recommended to
connect CS to VCC using a pull-up resistor (less than or equal to 10 kΩ). After power-up, a low level on
CS is required prior to any sequence being initiated.
2.2 Serial Data Output (SO)
The Serial Data Output (SO) pin is used to transfer data out of the AT25512. During a read sequence,
data is shifted out on this pin after the falling edge of the Serial Data Clock (SCK).
2.3 Write-Protect (WP)
The Write-Protect (WP) pin will allow normal read/write operations when held high. When the WP pin is
brought low and WPEN bit is set to a logic ‘1’, all write operations to the STATUS register are inhibited.
WP going low while CS is still low will interrupt a write operation to the STATUS register. If the internal
write cycle has already been initiated, WP going low will have no effect on any write operation to the
STATUS register. The WP pin function is blocked when the WPEN bit in the STATUS register is set to a
logic ‘0’. This will allow the user to install the AT25512 in a system with the WP pin tied to ground and still
be able to write to the STATUS register. All WP pin functions are enabled when the WPEN bit is set to a
logic ‘1’.
2.4 Ground
The ground reference for the power supply. GND should be connected to the system ground.

2.5 Serial Data Input (SI)
The Serial Data Input (SI) pin is used to transfer data into the device. It receives instructions, addresses
and data. Data is latched on the rising edge of the Serial Data Clock (SCK).
2.6 Serial Data Clock (SCK)
The Serial Data Clock (SCK) pin is used to synchronize the communication between a master and the
AT25512. Instructions, addresses or data present on the Serial Data Input (SI) pin is latched in on the
rising edge of SCK, while output on the Serial Data Output (SO) pin is clocked out on the falling edge of
SCK.
2.7 Device Power Supply (VCC)
The Device Power Supply (VCC) pin is used to supply the source voltage to the device. Operations at
invalid VCC voltages may produce spurious results and should not be attempted.

4.6 Electrical Specifications
4.6.1 Power-Up Requirements and Reset Behavior
During a power-up sequence, the VCC supplied to the AT25512 should monotonically rise from GND to
the minimum VCC level, as specified in Table 4-1, with a slew rate no faster than 0.1 V/µs.
4.6.1.1 Device Reset
To prevent inadvertent write operations or any other spurious events from occurring during a power-up
sequence, the AT25512 includes a Power-on Reset (POR) circuit. Upon power-up, the device will not
respond to any instructions until the VCC level crosses the internal voltage threshold (VPOR) that brings
the device out of Reset and into Standby mode.
The system designer must ensure the instructions are not sent to the device until the VCC supply has
reached a stable value greater than or equal to the minimum VCC level. Additionally, once the VCC is
greater than or equal to the minimum VCC level, the bus master must wait at least tPUP before sending the
first instruction to the device. See Table 4-4 for the values associated with these power-up parameters.
Table 4-4. Power-Up Conditions(1)
Symbol Parameter Min. Max. Units
tPUP Time required after VCC is stable before the device can accept instructions 100 µs
VPOR Power-on Reset Threshold Voltage 1.5 V
tPOFF Minimum time at VCC = 0V between power cycles 500 ms
Note: 
1. These parameters are characterized but they are not 100% tested in production.
If an event occurs in the system where the VCC level supplied to the AT25512 drops below the maximum
VPOR level specified, it is recommended that a full-power cycle sequence be performed by first driving the
VCC pin to GND in less than 1 ms, waiting at least the minimum tPOFF time and then performing a new
power-up sequence in compliance with the requirements defined in this section.

Note: 
1. Performance is determined through characterization and the qualification process.
4.6.4 Software Reset
The SPI interface of the AT25512 can be reset by toggling the CS input. If the CS line is already in the
active state, it must complete a transition from the inactive state (≥VIH) to the active state (≤VIL) and then
back to the inactive state (≥VIH) without sending clocks on the SCK line. Upon completion of this
sequence, the device will be ready to receive a new opcode on the SI line.
4.6.5 Device Default State at Power-Up
The AT25512 default state upon power-up consists of:
Standby Power mode
A high-to-low-level transition on CS is required to enter active state
Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit in the STATUS register = 0
Ready/Busy bit in the STATUS register = 0, indicating the device is ready to accept a new command
Device is not selected
Not in Hold condition
WPEN, BP1 and BP0 bits in the STATUS register are unchanged from their previous state due to the
fact that they are nonvolatile values
4.6.6 Device Default Condition
The AT25512 is shipped from Microchip to the customer with the EEPROM array set to an all FFh data
pattern (logic ‘1’ state). The Write-Protect Enable bit in the STATUS register is set to logic ‘0’ and the
Block WriteProtection bits in the STATUS register are set to logic ‘0’.

Electrical Characteristics

5. Device Operation
The AT25512 is controlled by a set of instructions that are sent from a host controller, commonly referred
to as the SPI Master. The SPI Master communicates with the AT25512 via the SPI bus which is
comprised of four signal lines: Chip Select (CS), Serial Data Clock (SCK), Serial Data Input (SI) and
Serial Data Output (SO).
The SPI protocol defines a total of four modes of operation (Mode 0, 1, 2 or 3) with each mode differing in
respect to the SCK polarity and phase and how the polarity and phase control the flow of data on the SPI
bus. The AT25512 supports the two most common modes, SPI Modes 0 and 3. With SPI Modes 0 and 3,
data is always latched in on the rising edge of SCK and always output on the falling edge of SCK. The
only difference between SPI Modes 0 and 3 is the polarity of the SCK signal when in the inactive state
(when the SPI Master is in Standby mode and not transferring any data). SPI Mode 0 is defined as a low
SCK while CS is not asserted (at VCC) and SPI Mode 3 has SCK high in the inactive state. The SCK Idle
state must match when the CS is deasserted both before and after the communication sequence in SPI
Mode 0 and 3. The figures in this document depict Mode 0 with a solid line on SCK while CS is inactive
and Mode 3 with a dotted line.

5.1 Interfacing the AT25512 on the SPI Bus
Communication to and from the AT25512 must be initiated by the SPI Master device, such as a
microcontroller. The SPI Master device must generate the serial clock for the AT25512 on the Serial Data
Clock (SCK) pin. The AT25512 always operates as a slave due to the fact that the SCK is always an
input.
5.1.1 Selecting the Device
The AT25512 is selected when the Chip Select (CS) pin is low. When the device is not selected, data will
not be accepted via the Serial Data Input (SI) pin, and the Serial Data Output (SO) pin will remain in a
highimpedance state.
5.1.2 Sending Data to the Device
The AT25512 uses the SI pin to receive information. All instructions, addresses and data input bytes are
clocked into the device with the Most Significant bit (MSb) first. The SI pin samples on the first rising edge
of the SCK line after the CS has been asserted.
AT25512
Device Operation
© 2019 Microchip Technology Inc. Datasheet DS20006218A-page 15
5.1.3 Receiving Data from the Device
Data output from the device is transmitted on the SO pin, with the MSb output first. The SO data is
latched on the first falling edge of SCK after the instruction has been clocked into the device, such as the
Read from Memory Array (READ) and Read STATUS Register (RDSR) instructions. See Read Sequence
for more details.
5.2 Device Opcodes
5.2.1 Serial Opcode
After the device is selected by driving CS low, the first byte will be received on the SI pin. This byte
contains the opcode that defines the operation to be performed. Refer to Table 6-1 for a list of all opcodes
that the AT25512 will respond to.
5.2.2 Invalid Opcode
If an invalid opcode is received, no data will be shifted into AT25512 and the SO pin will remain in a high-
impedance state until the falling edge of CS is detected again. This will reinitialize the serial
communication.
5.3 Hold Function
The Suspend Serial Input (HOLD) pin is used to pause the serial communication with the device without
having to stop or reset the clock sequence. The Hold mode, however, does not have an effect on the
internal write cycle. Therefore, if a write cycle is in progress, asserting the HOLD pin will not pause the
operation and the write cycle will continue to completion.
The Hold mode can only be entered while the CS pin is asserted. The Hold mode is activated by
asserting the HOLD pin during the SCK low pulse. If the HOLD pin is asserted during the SCK high pulse,
then the Hold mode will not be started until the beginning of the next SCK low pulse. The device will
remain in the Hold mode as long as the HOLD pin and CS pin are asserted.
While in Hold mode, the SO pin will be in a high-impedance state. In addition, both the SI pin and the
SCK pin will be ignored. The Write-Protect (WP) pin, however, can still be asserted or deasserted while in
the Hold mode.
To end the Hold mode and resume serial communication, the HOLD pin must be deasserted during the
SCK low pulse. If the HOLD pin is deasserted during the SCK high pulse, then the Hold mode will not end
until the beginning of the next SCK low pulse.
If the CS pin is deasserted while the HOLD pin is still asserted, then any operation that may have been
started will be aborted and the device will reset the WEL bit in the STATUS register back to the logic ‘0
state.

5.4 Write Protection
The Write-Protect (WP) pin will allow normal read and write operations when held high. When the WP pin
is brought low and WPEN bit is a logic ‘1’, all write operations to the STATUS register are inhibited. The
WP pin going low while CS is still low will interrupt a Write STATUS Register (WRSR). If the internal write
cycle has already been initiated, WP going low will have no effect on any write operation to the STATUS
register. The WP pin function is blocked when the WPEN bit in the STATUS register is a logic ‘0’. This will
allow the user to install the AT25512 device in a system with the WP pin tied to ground and still be able to
write to the STATUS register. All WP pin functions are enabled when the WPEN bit is set to a logic ‘1’.

6. Device Commands and Addressing
The AT25512 is designed to interface directly with the synchronous Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). The
AT25512 utilizes an 8bit instruction register. The list of instructions and their operation codes are
contained in Table 6-1. All instructions, addresses and data are transferred with the MSb first and start
with a hightolow CS transition.

6.1 STATUS Register Bit Definition and Function
The AT25512 includes an 8bit STATUS register. The STATUS register bits modulate various features of
the device as shown in Table 6-2 and Table 6-3. These bits can be changed by specific instructions that
are detailed in the following sections.

6.2 Read STATUS Register (RDSR)
The Read STATUS Register (RDSR) instruction provides access to the STATUS register. The ready/busy
and write enable status of the device can be determined by the RDSR instruction. Similarly, the Block
Write Protection (BP[1:0]) bits indicate the extent of memory array protection employed. The STATUS
register is read by asserting the CS pin, followed by sending in a 05h opcode on the SI pin. Upon
completion of the opcode, the device will return the 8bit STATUS register value on the SO pin.

6.3 Write Enable (WREN) and Write Disable (WRDI)
Enabling and disabling writing to the STATUS register and EEPROM array is accomplished through the
Write Enable (WREN) instruction and the Write Disable (WRDI) instruction. These functions change the
status of the WEL bit in the STATUS register.
6.3.1 Write Enable Instruction (WREN)
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit of the STATUS register must be set to a logic ‘1’ prior to each Write
STATUS Register (WRSR) and Write to Memory Array (WRITE) instructions. This is accomplished by
sending a WREN (06h) instruction to the AT25512. First, the CS pin is driven low to select the device and
then a WREN instruction is clocked in on the SI pin. Then the CS pin can be driven high and the WEL bit
will be updated in the STATUS register to a logic ‘1’. The device will powerup in the Write Disable state
(WEL = 0).

6.3.2 Write Disable Instruction (WRDI)
To protect the device against inadvertent writes, the Write Disable (WRDI) instruction (opcode 04h)
disables all programming modes by setting the WEL bit to a logic ‘0’. The WRDI instruction is independent
of the status of the WP pin.

6.4 Write STATUS Register (WRSR)
The Write STATUS Register (WRSR) instruction enables the SPI Master to change selected bits of the
STATUS register. Before a WRSR instruction can be initiated, a WREN instruction must be executed to set
the WEL bit to logic ‘1’. Upon completion of a WREN instruction, a WRSR instruction can be executed.
Note:  The WRSR instruction has no effect on bit 6, bit 5, bit 4, bit 1 and bit 0 of the STATUS register. Only
bit 7, bit 3 and bit 2 can be changed via the WRSR instruction. These modifiable bits are the Write-Protect
Enable (WPEN) and Block Protect (BP[1:0]) bits. These three bits are nonvolatile bits that have the same
properties and functions as regular EEPROM cells. Their values are retained while power is removed
from the device.

The AT25512 will not respond to commands other than a RDSR after a WRSR instruction until
the selftimed internal write cycle has completed. When the write cycle is completed, the WEL bit in the
STATUS register is reset to logic ‘0’.

6.4.1 Block Write-Protect Function
The WRSR instruction allows the user to select one of four possible combinations as to how the memory
array will be inhibited from writing through changing the Block Write-Protect bits (BP[1:0]). The four levels
of array protection are:
None of the memory array is protected.
Upper quarter (¼) address range is write-protected meaning the highest order address bits are
readonly.
Upper half (½) address range is write-protected meaning the highest order address bits are
readonly.
All of the memory array is write-protected meaning all address bits are readonly.
The Block Write Protection levels and corresponding STATUS register control bits are shown in Table 6-4.

6.4.2 Write-Protect Enable Function
The WRSR instruction also allows the user to enable or disable the Write-Protect (WP) pin through the use
of the Write-Protect Enable (WPEN) bit. When the WPEN bit is set to logic ‘0’, the ability to write the
EEPROM array is dictated by the values of the Block Write-Protect (BP[1:0]) bits. The ability to write the
STATUS register is controlled by the WEL bit. When the WPEN bit is set to logic ‘1’, the STATUS register
is read-only.
Hardware Write Protection is enabled when both the WP pin is low and the WPEN bit has been set to a
logic ‘1’. When the device is Hardware WriteProtected, writes to the STATUS register, including the Block
WriteProtect, WEL and WPEN bits and to the sections in the memory array selected by the Block
WriteProtect bits are disabled. When Hardware Write Protection is enabled, writes are only allowed to
sections of the memory that are not blockprotected.
Hardware Write Protection is disabled when either the WP pin is high or the WPEN bit is a logic ‘0’. When
Hardware Write Protection is disabled, writes are only allowed to sections of the memory that are not
blockprotected. Refer to Table 6-5 for additional information.
Note:  When the WPEN bit is Hardware WriteProtected, it cannot be set back to a logic ‘0’ as long as
the WP pin is held low.

7. Read Sequence
Reading the AT25512 via the SO pin requires the following sequence. After the CS line is pulled low to
select a device, the READ (03h) instruction is transmitted via the SI line followed by the 16bit address to
be read. Refer to Table 7-1 for the address bits for AT25512.
Table 7-1. AT25512 Address Bits
Address AT25512
ANA15—A0
Upon completion of the 16bit address, any data on the SI line will be ignored. The data (D7D0) at the
specified address is then shifted out onto the SO line. If only one byte is to be read, the CS line should be
driven high after the data comes out. The read sequence can be continued since the byte address is
automatically incremented and data will continue to be shifted out. When the highestorder address bit is
reached, the address counter will rollover to the lowestorder address bit allowing the entire memory to be
read in one continuous read cycle regardless of the starting address.

8. Write Sequence
In order to program the AT25512, two separate instructions must be executed. First, the device must be
write enabled via the Write Enable (WREN) instruction. Then, one of the two possible write sequences
described in this section may be executed.
Note:  If the device is not Write Enabled (WREN), the device will ignore the WRITE instruction and will
return to the standby state when CS is brought high. A new CS assertion is required to reinitiate
communication.
The address of the memory location(s) to be programmed must be outside the protected address field
location selected by the block write protection level. During an internal write cycle, all commands will be
ignored except the RDSR instruction. Refer to Table 8-1 for the address bits for AT25512.
Table 8-1. AT25512 Address Bits
Address AT25512
ANA15—A0
8.1 Byte Write
A Byte Write requires the following sequence and is depicted in Figure 8-1. After the CS line is pulled low
to select the device, the WRITE (02h) instruction is transmitted via the SI line followed by the 16bit
address and the data (D7D0) to be programmed. Programming will start after the CS pin is brought high.
The lowtohigh transition of the CS pin must occur during the SCK low time (Mode 0) and SCK high time
(Mode 3) immediately after clocking in the D0 (LSB) data bit. The AT25512 is automatically returned to
the Write Disable state (STATUS register bit WEL = 0) at the completion of a write cycle.

8.2 Page Write
A Page Write sequence allows up to 128 bytes to be written in the same write cycle, provided that all
bytes are in the same row of the memory array. Partial Page Writes of less than 128 bytes are allowed.
After each byte of data is received, the seven lowest order address bits are internally incremented
AT25512
Write Sequence

following the receipt of each data byte. The higher order address bits are not incremented and retain the
memory array page location. If more bytes of data are transmitted that what will fit to the end of that
memory row, the address counter will rollover to the beginning of the same row. Nevertheless, creating a
rollover event should be avoided as previously loaded data in the page could become unintentionally
altered. The AT25512 is automatically returned to the Write Disable state (WEL = 0) at the completion of
a write cycle.

8.3 Polling Routine
A polling routine can be implemented to optimize timesensitive applications that would not prefer to wait
the fixed maximum write cycle time (tWC). This method allows the application to know immediately when
the write cycle has completed to start a subsequent operation.
Once the internally-timed write cycle has started, a polling routine can be initiated. This involves
repeatedly sending Read STATUS Register (RDSR) instruction to determine if the device has completed
its self-timed internal write cycle. If the RDY/BSY bit (bit 0 of STATUS register) = 1, the write cycle is still
in progress. If bit 0 = 0, the write cycle has ended. If the RDY/BSY bit = 1, repeated RDSR commands can
be executed until the RDY/BSY bit = 0, signaling that the device is ready to execute a new instruction.
Only the Read STATUS Register (RDSR) instruction is enabled during the write cycle.

Microchip Devices Code Protection Feature
Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the
market today, when used in the intended manner and under normal conditions.
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of
these methods, to our knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the
operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is
engaged in theft of intellectual property.
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their
code. Code protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the
code protection features of our products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a
