Stop Condition
A Stop condition is indicated when the bus master
drives SDA from low to high while the SCL signal is
high. All operations must end with a Stop condition. If
an operation is pending when a stop is asserted, the
operation will be aborted. The master must have
control of SDA (not a memory read) in order to assert
a Stop condition.
Start Condition
A Start condition is indicated when the bus master
drives SDA from high to low while the SCL signal is
high. All read and write transactions begin with a Start
condition. An operation in progress can be aborted by
asserting a Start condition at any time. Aborting an
operation using the Start condition will ready the
FM24CL04 for a new operation.
If during operation the power supply drops below the
specified V
Start condition prior to performing another operation.
Data/Address Transfer
All data transfers (including addresses) take place
while the SCL signal is high. Except under the two
conditions described above, the SDA signal should not
change while SCL is high.
Acknowledge
The Acknowledge takes place after the 8
been transferred in any transaction. During this state
the transmitter should release the SDA bus to allow the
receiver to drive it. The receiver drives the SDA signal
low to acknowledge receipt of the byte. If the receiver
does not drive SDA low, the condition is a No-
Acknowledge and the operation is aborted.
The receiver could fail to acknowledge for two distinct
reasons. First, if a byte transfer fails, the No-
Acknowledge ends the current operation so that the
device can be addressed again. This allows the last
byte to be recovered in the event of a communication
error. Second and most common, the receiver does not

operation. For example, during a read operation, the
FM24CL04 will continue to place data onto the bus

more data is needed, the receiver must not

FM24CL04 to attempt to drive the bus on the next

such as a Stop command.
Slave Address
The first byte that the FM24CL04 expects after a
start condition is the slave address. As shown in
Figure 4, the slave address contains the device type,
the device select, the page of memory to be
accessed, and a bit that specifies if the transaction is
a read or a write.
Bits 7-4 are the device type and should be set to
1010b for the FM24CL04. The device type allows
other types of functions to reside on the 2-wire bus
within an identical address range. Bits 3-2 are the
device address. If bit 3 matches the A2 pin and bit 2
matches the A1 pin the device will be selected. Bit 1
is the page select. It specifies the 256-byte block of
memory that is targeted for the current operation. Bit
0 is the read/write bit. A 0 indicates a write
operation.
Word Address
After the FM24CL04 (as receiver) acknowledges the
slave ID, the master will place the word address on
the bus for a write operation. The word address is
the lower 8-bits of the address to be combined with
the 1-bit page select to specify exactly the byte to be
written. The complete 9-bit address is latched
internally.
