After RESET is set low, the Programming Enable instruction needs to be executed first before
program/erase operations can be executed.
Note: In Table 18-9, above, the pin mapping for SPI programming is listed. Not all parts use the SPI pins
dedicated for the internal SPI interface.
When programming the EEPROM, an auto-erase cycle is built into the self-timed programming
operation (in the Serial mode ONLY) and there is no need to first execute the Chip Erase
instruction. The Chip Erase operation turns the content of every memory location in both the
Program and EEPROM arrays into 0xFF.
Depending on CKSEL Fuses, a valid clock must be present. The minimum low and high periods
for the serial clock (SCK) input are defined as follows:
Low:> 2 CPU clock cycles for f
ck
< 12 MHz, 3 CPU clock cycles for f
ck
>= 12 MHz
High:> 2 CPU clock cycles for f
ck
< 12 MHz, 3 CPU clock cycles for f
ck
>= 12 MHz
18.6.1 Serial Programming Algorithm
When writing serial data to the device, the data is clocked on the rising edge of SCK. When
reading, data is clocked on the falling edge of SCK. See Figure 19-3 and Figure 19-4 for timing
details.
To program and verify the device in Serial Programming mode, the following sequence is recom-
mended (see four byte instruction formats in Table 18-11):
1. Power-up sequence: Apply power between V
CC
and GND while RESET and SCK are
set to “0”.
In some systems, the programmer can not guarantee that SCK is held low during
power-up. In this case, RESET
must be given a positive pulse after SCK has been
set to '0'. The duration of the pulse must be at least t
RST
(the minimum pulse width on
RESET
pin, see Table 19-4 on page 188) plus two CPU clock cycles.
2. Wait for at least 20 ms and enable serial programming by sending the Programming
Enable serial instruction to pin MOSI.
3. The serial programming instructions will not work if the communication is out of syn-
chronization. When in sync. the second byte (0x53), will echo back when issuing the
third byte of the Programming Enable instruction. Whether the echo is correct or not, all
four bytes of the instruction must be transmitted. If the 0x53 did not echo back, give
RESET
a positive pulse and issue a new Programming Enable command.
4. The Flash is programmed one page at a time. The memory page is loaded one byte at
a time by supplying the 5 LSB of the address and data together with the Load Program
memory Page instruction. To ensure correct loading of the page, the data low byte must
be loaded before data high byte is applied for a given address. The Program memory
Page is stored by loading the Write Program memory Page instruction with the 6 MSB
of the address. If polling (RDY/BSY)
is not used, the user must wait at least t
