Writing to this byte controls the setting of potentiometer 1, a 256- position pot. Valid settings are 00h to FFh.
F9h
Potentiometer 0 Setting
Writing to this byte controls the setting of potentiometer 0, a 100- position pot. Valid settings are 00h to 63h. MSB is ignored.
FAh
Software Lock Configuration Byte
The three lower bits in this byte can be used to set write-protection to the 256-byte memory block.
B2
B1
B0
B2: Writing this bit to a 1 protects the upper page of memory. If this bit is set, memory locations F8h to FFh are configured for write-protection.
B1: Writing this bit to a 1 protects the upper block of memory. If this bit is set, memory locations 80h to F7h are configured for write-protection. The upper page must be unlocked in order to modify the locking of this portion of memory.
B0: Writing this bit to a 1 protects the lower block of memory. If this bit is set, memory locations 00h to 7Fh are configured for write-protection. The upper page must be unlocked in order to modify the locking of this portion of memory.
FBh – FCh
Lock Bytes
Writing to these two bytes allows the user to lock or unlock the memory described in byte FAh.
LOCK: If memory location FBh is written to 56h and memory location FCh is written to 25h, the device will enter lock mode. Write protection will become active in the memory locations that are specified in FAh.
UNLOCK: If memory location FBh is written to 67h and memory location FCh is written to 36h, the device will be unlocked. Once unlocked, the user can change the setting of memory location FAh to affect the EEPROM write-protection.
The locking can be updated at any time as long as the upper page is unlocked.
