1993 Microchip Technology 18Basic Serial EEPROM OperationBASIC Serial EEPROM OPERATIONLooking for the optimum non-volatile memory productfor your system that requires a small footprint, byte levelflexibility, low power, and is highly cost effective? SerialEEPROM technology is one of the non-volatile memorytechnologies that has emerged as a leading embeddedcontrol solution. Unfortunately, most system designersare not aware of the Serial EEPROM benefits. Also, thesupporting documentation in databooks is most oftennot adequate due to incomplete or ambiguous informa-tion. As a result, the system designer often selects anon-volatile solution that does not meet his require-ments, or, the designer must face a more complicateddesign-in with a Serial article addresses two issues that exist today fordesigners considering Serial EEPROM products:First, to provide awareness of the application , to provide a primer on the operating prin-ciples and instructions.
