TOSHIBA TH58NVG1S3AFT05

TH58NVG1S3AFT05
TENTATIVE
TOSHIBA MOS DIGITAL INTEGRATED CIRCUIT SILICON GATE CMOS
2GBIT (256M u 8BITS) CMOS NAND E2PROM
DESCRIPTION
The TH58NVG1S3A is a single 3.3-V 2G-bit (2,214,592,512 bits) NAND Electrically Erasable and
Programmable Read-Only Memory (NAND E2PROM) organized as (2048+64) bytes x 64 pages x 2048 blocks.
The device has a 2112-byte static registers which allow program and read data to be transferred
between the register and the memory cell array in 2112-byte increments. The Erase operation is
implemented in a single block unit (128 Kbytes + 4Kbytes: 2112 bytes x 64 pages).
The TH58NVG1S3A is a serial-type memory device which utilizes the I/O pins for both address and data
input / output as well as for command inputs. The Erase and Program operations are automatically
executed making the device most suitable for applications such as solid-state file storage, voice
recording, image file memory for still cameras and other systems which require high-density nonvolatile memory data storage.

PIN FUNCTIONS
The device is a serial access memory which utilizes time-sharing input of address information. The device
pin-outs are configured as shown in Figure 1.
Command Latch Enable: CLE
The CLE input signal is used to control loading of the
operation mode command into the internal command register.
The command is latched into the command register from the
I/O port on the rising edge of the WE signal while CLE is
High.
Address Latch Enable: ALE
The ALE signal is used to control loading of either address
information or input data into the internal address/data
register.
Address information is latched on the rising edge of WE if
ALE is High.
Input data is latched if ALE is Low.

Figure 1. Pinout
The device goes into a low-power Standby mode when CE goes High during the device is in Ready state. The
CE signal is ignored when device is in Busy state ( RY / BY L ), such as during a Program or Erase or Read
operation, and will not enter Standby mode even if the CE input goes High.
Write Enable: WE
The WE signal is used to control the acquisition of data from the I/O port.
Read Enable: RE
The RE signal controls serial data output. Data is available tREA after the falling edge of RE .
The internal column address counter is also incremented (Address = Address + l) on this falling edge.
I/O Port: I/O1 to 8
The I/O1 to 8 pins are used as a port for transferring address, command and input/output data to and from
the device.
Write Protect: WP
The WP signal is used to protect the device from accidental programming or erasing. The internal voltage
regulator is reset when WP is Low. This signal is usually used for protecting the data during the power-on/off
sequence when input signals are invalid.
Ready/Busy: RY / BY
The RY / BY output signal is used to indicate the operating condition of the device. The RY / BY signal is
in Busy state ( RY / BY = L) during the Program, Erase and Read operations and will return to Ready state
( RY / BY = H) after completion of the operation. The output buffer for this signal is an open drain and has to be
pulled-up to Vccq with appropriate resister..

Operation Mode: Logic and Command Tables
The operation modes such as Program, Erase, Read and Reset are controlled by the eleven different command
operations shown in Table 3. Address input, command input and data input/output are controlled by the CLE,
ALE, CE , WE , RE and WP signals, as shown in Table 2.

DEVICE OPERATION
Read Mode
Read mode is set when "00H" and “30H” commands are issued to the Command register. Between the
commands, start address for the Read mode need to be issued. Refer to Figure 3 below for sequence and the
block diagram (Refer to the detailed timing chart.).

Cell array
A data transfer operation from the cell array to the register
starts on the rising edge of WE in the 30h command input cycle
(after the address information has been latched). The device will
be in Busy state during this transfer period.
After the transfer period the device returns to Ready state.
Serial data can be output synchronously with the RE clock from
the start address designated in the address input cycle.

In the serial data out from the register, the column address

is input to the device by 05h and E0h commands with /RE clock.

The data is transferred (programmed) from the register to
the selected page on the rising edge of WE following input of
the “ 10H command. After programming, the programmed data
is transferred back to the register to be automatically verified
by the device. If the programming does not succeed, the
Program/Verify operation is repeated by the device until
success is achieved or until the maximum loop number set in
the device is reached.
Figure 7. Auto Page Program operation
Auto Block Erase
The Auto Block Erase operation starts on the rising edge of WE after the Erase Start command “DOH”
which follows the Erase Setup command "60H". This three-cycle process for Erase operations acts as an extra
layer of protection from accidental erasure of data due to external noise. The device automatically executes the
Erase and Verify operations.

Status Read
The device automatically implements the execution and verification of the Program and Erase operations.
The Status Read function is used to monitor the Ready/Busy status of the device, determine the result (pass
/fail) of a Program or Erase operation, and determine whether the device is in Protect mode. The device status
is output via the I/O port on the RE clock after a “70H" command input.
The resulting information is outlined in Table 5.

The Reset mode stops all operations. For example, in the case of a Program or Erase operation the internally
generated voltage is discharged to 0 volts and the device enters Wait state.

APPLICATION NOTES AND COMMENTS
(1) Power-on/off sequence:
The timing sequence shown in Figure 15 is necessary for power-on/off sequence.
The device internal initialization start after the power supply reaches appropriate level in power on
sequence. During the initialization the device Ready/Busy signal outputs Busy state as shown in the
Figure-15. In this time period, the acceptable commands are FFh or 70h.
The WP signal is useful for protecting against data corruption at power-on/off.

(3) Prohibition of unspecified commands
The operation commands are listed in Table 3. Input of a command other than those specified in Table 3
is prohibited. Stored data may be corrupted if an unknown command is entered during the command cycle.
(4) Restriction of command while Busy state
During Busy state, do not input any command except 70H, and FFH.

(5) Acceptable commands after Serial Input command "80H"

The device status can be read out by inputting the Status Read command “70H” in Read mode.
Once the device has been set to Status Read mode by a “70H” command, the device will not return to
Read mode.
Therefore, a Status Read during a Read operation is prohibited.
However, when the Read command “00H” is input during [A], Status mode is reset and the device returns
to Read mode. In this case, data output starts automatically from address N and address input is
unnecessary

(13) Invalid blocks (bad blocks)
The device occasionally contains unusable blocks. Therefore, the following issues must be recognized:
At the time of shipment, all data bytes in a valid block are FFH. For
bad blocks, all bytes are not in the FFH state. Please don’t perform erase
operation to bad blocks.
Bad Block
Bad Block
Check if the device has any bad blocks after installation into the
system. Figure 27 shows the test flow for bad block detection. Bad blocks
which are detected by the test flow must be managed as unusable blocks
by the system.
A bad block does not affect the performance of good blocks because it is
isolated from the bit line by the select gate
The number of valid blocks at the time of shipment is as follows:

Block A
When an error happens in Block A, try to
reprogram the data into another Block (Block

prevent further system accesses to Block A ( by
creating a bad block table or by using another
appropriate scheme).
Block B
Figure 28.
Erase
When an error occurs in an Erase operation, prevent future accesses to this bad block
(again by creating a table within the system or by using another appropriate scheme).
(15) Do not turn off the power before write/erase operation is complete. Avoid using the device when the battery
is low. Power shortage and/or power failure before write/erase operation is complete will cause loss of data and/or
damage to data.
