Description
The AT93C46/56/66 provides 1024/2048/4096 bits of serial electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), organized as 64/128/256 words of 16 bits each (when the ORG pin is connected to VCC), and 128/256/512 words of 8 bits each (when the ORG pin is tied to ground). The device is optimized for use in many industrial and commercial applications where low-power and low-voltage operations are essential. The AT93C46/56/66 is available in space-saving 8-lead PDIP, 8-lead JEDEC SOIC, 8-lead EIAJ SOIC, 8-lead MAP, 8-lead TSSOP, and 8-lead dBGA2 packages.
The AT93C46/56/66 is enabled through the Chip Select pin (CS) and accessed via a three-wire serial interface consisting of Data Input (DI), Data Output (DO), and Shift Clock (SK). Upon receiving a Read instruction at DI, the address is decoded and the data is clocked out serially on the DO pin. The Write cycle is completely self-timed, and no separate Erase cycle is required before Write. The Write cycle is only enabled when the part is in the Erase/Write Enable state. When CS is brought high following the initiation of a Write cycle, the DO pin outputs the Ready/Busy status of the part.
The AT93C46/56/66 is available in 2.7V to 5.5V and 1.8V to 5.5V versions.

*NOTICE:
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability
Figure 1. Block Diagram
Note:
When the ORG pin is connected to VCC, the “x 16” organization is selected. When it is connected to ground, the “x 8” organization is selected. If the ORG pin is left unconnected and the application does not load the input beyond the capability of the internal 1 Meg ohm pullup, then the “x 16” organization is selected. The feature is not available on the 1.8V devices.
For the AT93C46, if “x 16” organization is the mode of choice and Pin 6 (ORG) is left unconnected, Atmel recommends using the AT93C46A device. For more details, see the AT93C46A datasheet.
