Random Address Read
A dummy Write is first performed to load the address into this address counter (as shown in

condition, and repeats the device select code, with the RW bit set to 1. The device
acknowledges this, and outputs the contents of the addressed byte. The bus master must
not acknowledge the byte, and terminates the transfer with a Stop condition.
Current Address Read
For the Current Address Read operation, following a Start condition, the bus master only
sends a device select code with the R/W bit set to 1. The device acknowledges this, and
outputs the byte addressed by the internal address counter. The counter is then
incremented. The bus master terminates the transfer with a Stop condition, as shown in
Figure
Note that the address counter value is defined by instructions accessing either the memory
or the Identification page. When accessing the Identification page, the address counter
value is loaded with the byte location in the Identification page, therefore the next Current
Address Read in the memory uses this new address counter value. When accessing the
memory, it is safer to always use the Random Address Read instruction (this instruction
loads the address counter with the byte location to read in the memory, see
instead of the Current Address Read instruction.
Sequential Read
This operation can be used after a Current Address Read or a Random Address Read. The
bus master does acknowledge the data byte output, and sends additional clock pulses so
that the device continues to output the next byte in sequence. To terminate the stream of
bytes, the bus master must not acknowledge the last byte, and must generate a Stop
condition, as shown in
The output data comes from consecutive addresses, with the internal address counter
automatically incremented after each byte output. After the last memory address, the
address counter “rolls-over”, and the device continues to output data from memory address
00h.
Read Identification Page (M24256-D only)
The Identification Page (64 bytes) is an additional page which can be written and (later)
permanently locked in Read-only mode.
The Identification Page can be read by issuing an Read Identification Page instruction. This
instruction uses the same protocol and format as the Random Address Read (from memory
array) with device type identifier defined as 1011b. The MSB address bits A15/A6 are don't
care, the LSB address bits A5/A0 define the byte address inside the Identification Page. The
number of bytes to read in the ID page must not exceed the page boundary (e.g.: when
reading the Identification Page from location 10d, the number of bytes should be less than
or equal to 54, as the ID page boundary is 64 bytes).
10) but without sending a Stop condition. Then, the bus master sends another Start
10, without acknowledging the byte.
