Intel® StrataFlash™ Memory Flash
Technology
Capitalizing on two-bit-per-cell technology, Intel® StrataFlash™ memory products provide 2X the bits in 1X
the space. Offered in 64-Mbit (8-Mbyte) and 32-Mbit (4-Mbyte) densities, Intel StrataFlash memory devices
are the first to bring reliable, two-bit-per-cell storage technology to the flash market.
Intel StrataFlash memory benefits include: more density in less space, lowest cost-per-bit NOR devices,
support for code and data storage, and easy migration to future devices.
Using the same NOR-based ETOX™ technology as Intel’s one-bit-per-cell products, Intel StrataFlash
memory devices take advantage of 400 million units of manufacturing experience since 1988. As a result,
Intel StrataFlash components are ideal for code or data applications where high density and low cost are
required. Examples include networking, telecommunications, audio recording, and digital imaging.
By applying FlashFile™ memory family pinouts, Intel StrataFlash memory components allow easy design
migrations from existing 28F016SA/SV, 28F032SA, and Word-Wide FlashFile memory devices (28F160S5
and 28F320S5).
Intel StrataFlash memory components deliver a new generation of forward-compatible software support. By
using the Common Flash Interface (CFI) and the Scaleable Command Set (SCS), customers can take
advantage of density upgrades and optimized write capabilities of future Intel StrataFlash memory devices.
Manufactured on Intel’s 0.4 micron ETOX™ V process technology, Intel StrataFlash memory provides the
highest levels of quality and reliability.

INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
1.0 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Intel® StrataFlash™ memory family contains
high-density memories organized as 8 Mbytes or
4 Mwords (64-Mbit) and 4 Mbytes or 2 Mwords
(32-Mbit). These devices can be accessed as 8- or
16-bit words. The 64-Mbit device is organized as
sixty-four 128-Kbyte (131,072 bytes) erase blocks
while the 32-Mbits device contains thirty-two 128Kbyte erase blocks. Blocks are selectively and
individually lockable and unlockable in-system.
See the memory map in Figure 5.
A Common Flash Interface (CFI) permits software
algorithms to be used for entire families of
devices. This allows device-independent, JEDEC
ID-independent, and forward- and backwardcompatible software support for the specified flash
device families. Flash vendors can standardize
their existing interfaces for long-term compatibility.
Scaleable Command Set (SCS) allows a single,
simple software driver in all host systems to work
with all SCS-compliant flash memory devices,
independent of system-level packaging (e.g.,
memory card, SIMM, or direct-to-board placement). Additionally, SCS provides the highest
system/device data transfer rates and minimizes
device and system-level implementation costs.
Individual block locking uses a combination of bits,
block lock-bits and a master lock-bit, to lock and
unlock blocks. Block lock-bits gate block erase
and program operations while the master lock-bit
gates block lock-bit modification. Three lock-bit
configuration operations set and clear lock-bits
(Set Block Lock-Bit, Set Master Lock-Bit, and
Clear Block Lock-Bits commands).
The status register indicates when the WSM’s
block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration
operation is finished.
The STS (STATUS) output gives an additional
indicator of WSM activity by providing both a
hardware signal of status (versus software polling)
and status masking (interrupt masking for
background block erase, for example). Status
indication using STS minimizes both CPU
overhead and system power consumption. When
configured in level mode (default mode), it acts as
a RY/BY# pin. When low, STS indicates that the
WSM is performing a block erase, program, or
lock-bit configuration. STS-high indicates that the
WSM is ready for a new command, block erase is
suspended (and programming is inactive), or the
device is in reset/power-down mode. Additionally,
the configuration command allows the STS pin to
be configured to pulse on completion of
programming and/or block erases.
A Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the
interface between the system processor and
internal operation of the device. A valid command
sequence written to the CUI initiates device
automation. An internal Write State Machine
(WSM) automatically executes the algorithms and
timings necessary for block erase, program, and
lock-bit configuration operations.
Three CE pins are used to enable and disable the
device. A unique CE logic design (see Table 2,
Chip Enable Truth Table) reduces decoder logic
typically required for multi-chip designs. External
logic is not required when designing a single chip,
a dual chip, or a 4-chip miniature card or SIMM
module.
A block erase operation erases one of the device’s
128-Kbyte blocks typically within one second—
independent of other blocks. Each block can be
independently erased 100,000 times. Block erase
suspend mode allows system software to suspend
block erase to read or program data from any
other block.
The BYTE# pin allows either x8 or x16 read/writes
to the device. BYTE# at logic low selects 8-bit
mode; address A0 selects between the low byte
and high byte. BYTE# at logic high enables 16-bit
operation; address A1 becomes the lowest order
address and address A0 is not used (don’t care). A
device block diagram is shown in Figure 1.
Each device incorporates a Write Buffer of
32 bytes (16 words) to allow optimum
programming performance. By using the Write
Buffer, data is programmed in buffer increments.
This feature can improve system program
performance by up to 20 times over non Write
Buffer writes.
When the device is disabled (see Table 2, Chip
Enable Truth Table) and the RP# pin is at VCC, the
standby mode is enabled. When the RP# pin is at
GND, a further power-down mode is enabled
which minimizes power consumption and provides
write protection during reset. A reset time (tPHQV)
is required from RP# switching high until outputs

are valid. Likewise, the device has a wake time
(tPHWL) from RP#-high until writes to the CUI are
recognized. With RP# at GND, the WSM is reset
and the status register is cleared.
available in 56-lead SSOP (Shrink Small Outline
Package) and µBGA* package (micro Ball Grid
Array). The 32-Mbit is available in 56-lead TSOP
(Thin Small Outline Package) and 56-lead SSOP.

Name and Function
A0
INPUT
BYTE-SELECT ADDRESS: Selects between high and low byte when the device
is in x8 mode. This address is latched during a x8 program cycle. Not used in
x16 mode (i.e., the A0 input buffer is turned off when BYTE# is high).
A1–A22
INPUT
ADDRESS INPUTS: Inputs for addresses during read and program operations.
Addresses are internally latched during a program cycle.
32-Mbit: A0–A21
64-Mbit: A0–A22
DQ0–DQ7
INPUT/ LOW-BYTE DATA BUS: Inputs data during buffer writes and programming, and
OUTPUT inputs commands during Command User Interface (CUI) writes. Outputs array,
query, identifier, or status data in the appropriate read mode. Floated when the
chip is de-selected or the outputs are disabled. Outputs DQ 6–DQ0 are also
floated when the Write State Machine (WSM) is busy. Check SR.7 (Status
Register bit 7) to determine WSM status.
DQ8–DQ15
INPUT/ HIGH-BYTE DATA BUS: Inputs data during x16 buffer writes and programming
OUTPUT operations. Outputs array, query, or identifier data in the appropriate read mode;
not used for Status Register reads. Floated when the chip is de-selected, the
outputs are disabled, or the WSM is busy.
CE0,
CE1,
CE2
INPUT
CHIP ENABLES: Activates the device’s control logic, input buffers, decoders,
and sense amplifiers. When the device is de-selected (see Table 2, Chip Enable
Truth Table), power reduces to standby levels.
All timing specifications are the same for these three signals. Device selection
occurs with the first edge of CE 0, CE1, or CE2 that enables the device. Device
deselection occurs with the first edge of CE 0, CE1, or CE2 that disables the
device (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table).
RP#
INPUT
RESET/ POWER-DOWN: Resets internal automation and puts the device in
power-down mode. RP#-high enables normal operation. Exit from reset sets the
device to read array mode. When driven low, RP# inhibits write operations which
provides data protection during power transitions.
RP# at VHH enables master lock-bit setting and block lock-bits configuration
when the master lock-bit is set. RP# = V HH overrides block lock-bits thereby
enabling block erase and programming operations to locked memory blocks. Do
not permanently connect RP# to VHH.
OE#
INPUT
OUTPUT ENABLE: Activates the device’s outputs through the data buffers
during a read cycle. OE# is active low.
WE#
INPUT
WRITE ENABLE: Controls writes to the Command User Interface, the Write
Buffer, and array blocks. WE# is active low. Addresses and data are latched on
the rising edge of the WE# pulse.
STS
OPEN
STATUS: Indicates the status of the internal state machine. When configured in
DRAIN level mode (default mode), it acts as a RY/BY# pin. When configured in one of
OUTPUT its pulse modes, it can pulse to indicate program and/or erase completion. For
alternate configurations of the STATUS pin, see the Configurations command.
Tie STS to VCCQ with a pull-up resistor.

2.0 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The Intel StrataFlash memory devices include an
on-chip WSM to manage block erase, program, and
lock-bit configuration functions. It allows for 100%
TTL-level control inputs, fixed power supplies
during
block
erasure,
program,
lock-bit
configuration, and minimal processor overhead with
RAM-like interface timings.
PRELIMINARY
After initial device power-up or return from
reset/power-down mode (see Bus Operations), the
device defaults to read array mode. Manipulation of
external memory control pins allows array read,
standby, and output disable operations.
Read array, status register, query, and identifier
codes can be accessed through the CUI (Command
User Interface) independent of the VPEN voltage.
11
E
®
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
VPENH on VPEN enables successful block erasure,
programming, and lock-bit configuration. All
functions associated with altering memory
contents—block
erase,
program,
lock-bit
configuration—are accessed via the CUI and
verified through the status register.
Commands are written using standard microprocessor write timings. The CUI contents serve as
input to the WSM, which controls the block erase,
program, and lock-bit configuration. The internal
algorithms are regulated by the WSM, including
pulse repetition, internal verification, and margining
of data. Addresses and data are internally latched
during program cycles.
Interface software that initiates and polls progress
of block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration
can be stored in any block. This code is copied to
and executed from system RAM during flash
memory updates. After successful completion,
reads are again possible via the Read Array
command. Block erase suspend allows system
software to suspend a block erase to read or
program data from/to any other block.

2.1
Data Protection
Depending on the application, the system designer
may choose to make the VPEN switchable (available
only when memory block erases, programs, or lockbit configurations are required) or hardwired to
VPENH. The device accommodates either design
practice and encourages optimization of the
processor-memory interface.
When VPEN ≤ VPENLK, memory contents cannot be
altered. The CUI’s two-step block erase, byte/word
program, and lock-bit configuration command
sequences provide protection from unwanted
operations even when VPENH is applied to VPEN. All
program functions are disabled when VCC is below
the write lockout voltage VLKO or when RP# is VIL.
The device’s block locking capability provides
additional protection from inadvertent code or data
alteration by gating erase and program operations.
3.0 BUS OPERATION
The local CPU reads and writes flash memory
in-system. All bus cycles to or from the flash
memory conform to standard microprocessor bus
cycles.

3.1
Read
Information can be read from any block, query,
identifier codes, or status register independent of
the VPEN voltage. RP# can be at either VIH or VHH.
Upon initial device power-up or after exit from
reset/power-down mode, the device automatically
resets to read array mode. Otherwise, write the
appropriate read mode command (Read Array,
Read Query, Read Identifier Codes, or Read Status
Register) to the CUI. Six control pins dictate the
data flow in and out of the component: CE0, CE1,
CE2, OE#, WE#, and RP#. The device must be
enabled (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table),
and OE# must be driven active to obtain data at the
outputs. CE0, CE1, and CE2 are the device
selection controls and, when enabled (see Table 2,
Chip Enable Truth Table), select the memory
device. OE# is the data output (DQ0–DQ15) control
and, when active, drives the selected memory data
onto the I/O bus. WE# must be at V IH.
3.2
Output Disable
With OE# at a logic-high level (VIH), the device
outputs are disabled. Output pins DQ0–DQ15 are
placed in a high-impedance state.
PRELIMINARY
3.3
Standby
CE0, CE1, and CE2 can disable the device (see
Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table) and place it in
standby mode which substantially reduces device
power consumption. DQ0–DQ15 outputs are placed
in a high-impedance state independent of OE#. If
deselected during block erase, program, or lock-bit
configuration, the WSM continues functioning, and
consuming active power until the operation
completes.
3.4
Reset/Power-Down
RP# at VIL initiates the reset/power-down mode.
In read modes, RP#-low deselects the memory,
places output drivers in a high-impedance state,
and turns off numerous internal circuits. RP# must
be held low for a minimum of tPLPH. Time tPHQV is
required after return from reset mode until initial
memory access outputs are valid. After this wakeup interval, normal operation is restored. The CUI is
reset to read array mode and status register is set
to 80H.
During block erase, program, or lock-bit
configuration modes, RP#-low will abort the
operation. In default mode, STS transitions low and
remains low for a maximum time of tPLPH + tPHRH
until the reset operation is complete. Memory
contents being altered are no longer valid; the data
may be partially corrupted after a program or
partially altered after an erase or lock-bit
configuration. Time tPHWL is required after RP#
goes to logic-high (VIH) before another command
can be written.
As with any automated device, it is important to
assert RP# during system reset. When the system
comes out of reset, it expects to read from the flash
memory. Automated flash memories provide status
information when accessed during block erase,
program, or lock-bit configuration modes. If a CPU
reset occurs with no flash memory reset, proper
initialization may not occur because the flash
memory may be providing status information
instead of array data. Intel’s flash memories allow
proper initialization following a system reset through
the use of the RP# input. In this application, RP# is
controlled by the same RESET# signal that resets
the system CPU.
13

®
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
The read query operation outputs block status
information, CFI (Common Flash Interface) ID
string, system interface information, device
geometry information, and Intel-specific extended
query information.
3.6
Read Identifier Codes
The read identifier codes operation outputs the
manufacturer code, device code, block lock
configuration codes for each block, and the master
lock configuration code (see Figure 6). Using the
manufacturer and device codes, the system CPU
can automatically match the device with its proper
algorithms. The block lock and master lock
configuration codes identify locked and unlocked
blocks and master lock-bit setting.
3.7
VPEN additionally enables block erase, program,
and lock-bit configuration operations.
Device operations are selected by writing specific
commands into the CUI. Table 4 defines these
commands.
Word
Address
3FFFFF
The Block Erase command requires appropriate
command data and an address within the block to
be erased. The Byte/Word Program command
requires the command and address of the location
to be written. Set Master and Block Lock-Bit
commands require the command and address
within the device (Master Lock) or block within the
device (Block Lock) to be locked. The Clear Block
Lock-Bits command requires the command and
address within the device.
The CUI does not occupy an addressable memory
location. It is written when the device is enabled
and WE# is active. The address and data needed to
execute a command are latched on the rising edge
of WE# or the first edge of CE0, CE1, or CE2 that
disables the device (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth
Table). Standard microprocessor write timings are
used.

5. See Read Query Mode Command section for read query data.
6. Command writes involving block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration are reliably executed when VPEN = VPENH and
VCC is within specification. Block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration with VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious results
and should not be attempted.
7. Refer to Table 4 for valid DIN during a write operation.
8. DQ refers to DQ0–DQ7 if BYTE# is low and DQ0–DQ15 if BYTE# is high.
9. High Z will be VOH with an external pull-up resistor.

NOTES:
1. Bus operations are defined in Table 3.
2. X = Any valid address within the device.
BA = Address within the block.
IA = Identifier Code Address: see Figure 6 and Table 13.
QA = Query database Address.
PA = Address of memory location to be programmed.
3. ID = Data read from Identifier Codes.
QD = Data read from Query database.
SRD = Data read from status register. See Table 16 for a description of the status register bits.
PD = Data to be programmed at location PA. Data is latched on the rising edge of WE#.
CC = Configuration Code.
4. The upper byte of the data bus (DQ8–DQ15) during command writes is a “Don’t Care” in x16 operation.
5. Following the Read Identifier Codes command, read operations access manufacturer, device, block lock, and master lock
codes. See Read Identifier Codes Command section for read identifier code data.
6. If the WSM is running, only DQ7 is valid; DQ15–DQ8 and DQ6–DQ0 float, which places them in a high-impedance state.
7. After the Write to Buffer command is issued check the XSR to make sure a buffer is available for writing.
8. The number of bytes/words to be written to the Write Buffer = N + 1, where N = byte/word count argument. Count ranges
on this device for byte mode are N = 00H to N = 1FH and for word mode are N = 0000H to N = 000FH. The third and
consecutive bus cycles, as determined by N, are for writing data into the Write Buffer. The Confirm command (D0H) is
expected after exactly N + 1 write cycles; any other command at that point in the sequence aborts the write to buffer
operation. Please see Figure 7, Write to Buffer Flowchart, for additional information.
9. Programming the write buffer to flash or initiating the erase operation does not begin until a confirm command (D0h) is
issued.
10. If the block is locked, RP# must be at VHH to enable block erase or program operations. Attempts to issue a block erase or
program to a locked block while RP# is VIH will fail.
11. Either 40H or 10H are recognized by the WSM as the byte/word program setup.
12. If the master lock-bit is set, RP# must be at VHH to set a block lock-bit. RP# must be at VHH to set the master lock-bit. If the
master lock-bit is not set, a block lock-bit can be set while RP# is VIH.
13. If the master lock-bit is set, RP# must be at VHH to clear block lock-bits. The clear block lock-bits operation simultaneously
clears all block lock-bits. If the master lock-bit is not set, the Clear Block Lock-Bits command can be done while RP# is VIH.
14. Commands other than those shown above are reserved by Intel for future device implementations and should not be used.
15. The Basic Command Set (BCS) is the same as the 28F008SA Command Set or Intel Standard Command Set. The
Scaleable Command Set (SCS) is also referred to as the Intel Extended Command Set.

4.1
Read Array Command
Upon initial device power-up and after exit from
reset/power-down mode, the device defaults to read
array mode. This operation is also initiated by
writing the Read Array command. The device
remains enabled for reads until another command
is written. Once the internal WSM has started a
block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration, the
device will not recognize the Read Array command
until the WSM completes its operation unless the
WSM is suspended via an Erase Suspend
command. The Read Array command functions
independently of the VPEN voltage and RP# can be
VIH or VHH.
4.2
Read Query Mode Command
This section defines the data structure or
“database” returned by the SCS (Scaleable
Command Set) Query command. System software
should parse this structure to gain critical
information to enable programming, block erases,
and otherwise control the flash component. The
SCS Query is part of an overall specification for
multiple command set and control interface
descriptions called Common Flash Interface, or
CFI. The Query can only be accessed when the
WSM is off or the device is suspended.
4.2.1
E
QUERY STRUCTURE OUTPUT
The Query “database,” described later, allows
system software to gain critical information for
controlling the flash component. This section
describes the device’s CFI-compliant interface that
allows the host system to access Query data.
Query data are always presented on the lowestorder data outputs DQ0–DQ7 only. The Query table
device starting address is a 10h word address.
The first two bytes of the Query structure, “Q” and
”R” in ASCII, appear on the low byte at word
addresses 10h and 11h. This CFI-compliant device
outputs 00H data on upper bytes. Thus, the device
outputs ASCII “Q” in the low byte DQ0–DQ7 and
00h in the high byte DQ8–DQ15.
Since the device is x8/x16 capable, the x8 data is
still presented in word-relative (16-bit) addresses.
However, the “fill data” (00h) is not the same as
driven by the upper bytes in the x16 mode. As in
x16 mode, the byte address (A0 or A1 depending on
pinout) is ignored for Query output so that the “odd
byte address” (A0 or A1 high) repeats the “even byte
address” data (A0 or A1 low). Therefore, in x8 mode
using byte addressing, the device will output the
sequence “Q,” “Q,” “R,” “R,” “Y,” “Y,” and so on,
beginning at byte-relative address 20h (which is
equivalent to word offset 10h in x16 mode).
In Query addresses where two or more bytes of
information are located, the least significant data
byte is presented on the lower address, and the
most significant data byte is presented on the
higher address.

terminate the operation, write another valid
command. Like the Read Array command, the
Read Identifier Codes command functions
independently of the VPEN voltage and RP# can be
VIH or VHH. This command is valid only when the
WSM is off or the device is suspended. Following

INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
Read Status Register
Command
The status register may be read to determine when
a block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration is
complete and whether the operation completed
successfully. It may be read at any time by writing
the Read Status Register command. After writing
this command, all subsequent read operations
output data from the status register until another
valid command is written. The status register
contents are latched on the falling edge of OE# or
the first edge of CE0, CE1, or CE2 that enables the
device (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table). OE#
must toggle to VIH or the device must be disabled
(see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table) before
further reads to update the status register latch.
The Read Status Register command functions
independently of the VPEN voltage. RP# can be VIH
or VHH.
During a program, block erase, set lock-bit, or clear
lock-bit command sequence, only SR.7 is valid until
the Write State Machine completes or suspends the
operation. Device I/O pins DQ0–DQ6 and DQ8–
DQ15 are placed in a high-impedance state. When
the operation completes or suspends (check Status
Register bit 7), all contents of the Status Register
are valid when read.
4.5
Clear Status Register
Command
Status register bits SR.5, SR.4, SR.3, and SR.1 are
set to “1”s by the WSM and can only be reset by
the Clear Status Register command. These bits
indicate various failure conditions (see Table 16).
By allowing system software to reset these bits,
several operations (such as cumulatively erasing or
locking multiple blocks or writing several bytes in
sequence) may be performed. The status register
may be polled to determine if an error occurred
during the sequence.
To clear the status register, the Clear Status
Register command (50H) is written. It functions
independently of the applied VPEN voltage. RP# can
be VIH or VHH. The Clear Status Register Command
is only valid when the WSM is off or the device is
suspended.
PRELIMINARY
4.6
Block Erase Command
Erase is executed one block at a time and initiated
by a two-cycle command. A block erase setup is
first written, followed by an block erase confirm.
This command sequence requires an appropriate
address within the block to be erased (erase
changes all block data to FFH). Block
preconditioning, erase, and verify are handled
internally by the WSM (invisible to the system).
After the two-cycle block erase sequence is written,
the device automatically outputs status register
data when read (see Figure 9). The CPU can detect
block erase completion by analyzing the output of
the STS pin or status register bit SR.7. Toggle OE#,
CE0, CE1, or CE2 to update the status register.
When the block erase is complete, status register
bit SR.5 should be checked. If a block erase error is
detected, the status register should be cleared
before system software attempts corrective actions.
The CUI remains in read status register mode until
a new command is issued.
This two-step command sequence of set-up
followed by execution ensures that block contents
are not accidentally erased. An invalid Block Erase
command sequence will result in both status
register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.” Also,
reliable block erasure can only occur when
VCC is valid and VPEN = VPENH. If block erase is
attempted while VPEN ≤ VPENLK, SR.3 and SR.5 will
be set to “1.” Successful block erase requires that
the corresponding block lock-bit be cleared or, if
set, that RP# = VHH. If block erase is attempted
when the corresponding block lock-bit is set and
RP# = VIH, SR.1 and SR.5 will be set to “1.” Block
erase operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce
spurious results and should not be attempted.
4.7
Block Erase Suspend
Command
The Block Erase Suspend command allows
block-erase interruption to read or program data in
another block of memory. Once the block erase
process starts, writing the Block Erase Suspend
command requests that the WSM suspend the
block erase sequence at a predetermined point in
the algorithm. The device outputs status register
data when read after the Block Erase Suspend
command is written. Polling status register bit SR.7
then SR.6 can determine when the block erase
operation has been suspended (both will be set to
“1”). In default mode, STS will also transition to
27
®
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
VOH. Specification tWHRH defines the block erase
suspend latency.
At this point, a Read Array command can be written
to read data from blocks other than that which is
suspended. A program command sequence can
also be issued during erase suspend to program
data in other blocks. During a program operation
with block erase suspended, status register bit
SR.7 will return to “0” and the STS output (in default
mode) will transition to VOL.
The only other valid commands while block erase is
suspended are Read Query, Read Status Register,
Clear Status Register, Configure, and Block Erase
Resume. After a Block Erase Resume command is
written to the flash memory, the WSM will continue
the block erase process. Status register bits SR.6
and SR.7 will automatically clear and STS (in
default mode) will return to VOL. After the Erase
Resume command is written, the device
automatically outputs status register data when
read (see Figure 10). VPEN must remain at VPENH
(the same VPEN level used for block erase) while
block erase is suspended. RP# must also remain at
VIH or VHH (the same RP# level used for block
erase). Block erase cannot resume until program
operations initiated during block erase suspend
have completed.
4.8
Write to Buffer Command
E
Internally, this device programs many flash cells in
parallel. Because of this parallel programming,
maximum programming performance and lower
power are obtained by aligning the start address at
the beginning of a write buffer boundary
(i.e., A4–A0 of the start address = 0).
After the final buffer data is given, a Write Confirm
command is issued. This initiates the WSM (Write
State Machine) to begin copying the buffer data to
the flash array. If a command other than Write
Confirm is written to the device, an “Invalid
Command/Sequence” error will be generated and
Status Register bits SR.5 and SR.4 will be set to a
“1.” For additional buffer writes, issue another Write
to Buffer setup command and check XSR.7.
If an error occurs while writing, the device will stop
writing, and Status Register bit SR.4 will be set to a
“1” to indicate a program failure. The internal WSM
verify only detects errors for “1”s that do not
successfully program to “0”s. If a program error is
detected, the status register should be cleared. Any
time SR.4 and/or SR.5 is set (e.g., a media failure
occurs during a program or an erase), the device
will not accept any more Write to Buffer commands.
Additionally, if the user attempts to program past an
erase block boundary with a Write to Buffer
command, the device will abort the Write to Buffer
operation. This will generate an "Invalid Command/
Sequence" error and Status Register bits SR.5 and
SR.4 will be set to a “1.”
To program the flash device, a Write to Buffer
command sequence is initiated. A variable number
of bytes, up to the buffer size, can be loaded into
the buffer and written to the flash device. First, the
Write to Buffer setup command is issued along with
the Block Address (see Figure 7, Write to Buffer
Flowchart). At this point, the eXtended Status
Register (XSR, see Table 17) information is loaded
and XSR.7 reverts to "buffer available" status. If
XSR.7 = 0, the write buffer is not available. To retry,
continue monitoring XSR.7 by issuing the Write to
Buffer setup command with the Block Address until
XSR.7 = 1. When XSR.7 transitions to a “1,” the
buffer is ready for loading.
Reliable buffered writes can only occur when
VPEN = VPENH. If a buffered write is attempted while
VPEN ≤ VPENLK, Status Register bits SR.4 and SR.3
will be set to “1.” Buffered write attempts with
invalid VCC and VPEN voltages produce spurious
results and should not be attempted. Finally,
successful programming requires that the
corresponding Block Lock-Bit be reset or, if set, that
RP# = VHH. If a buffered write is attempted when
the corresponding Block Lock-Bit is set and RP# =
VIH, SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1.” Buffered write
operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious
results and should not be attempted.
Now a word/byte count is given to the part with the
Block Address. On the next write, a device start
address is given along with the write buffer data.
Subsequent writes provide additional device
addresses and data, depending on the count. All
subsequent addresses must lie within the start
address plus the count.
4.9
28
Byte/Word Program Commands
Byte/Word program is executed by a two-cycle
command sequence. Byte/Word program setup
(standard 40H or alternate 10H) is written followed
by a second write that specifies the address and
data (latched on the rising edge of WE#). The WSM
PRELIMINARY
E
®
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
then takes over, controlling the program and
program verify algorithms internally. After the
program sequence is written, the device
automatically outputs status register data when
read (see Figure 8). The CPU can detect the
completion of the program event by analyzing the
STS pin or status register bit SR.7.
An invalid configuration code will result in both
status register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.”
When configured in one of the pulse modes, the
STS pin pulses low with a typical pulse width of
250 ns.
4.11
When program is complete, status register bit SR.4
should be checked. If a program error is detected,
the status register should be cleared. The internal
WSM verify only detects errors for “1”s that do not
successfully program to “0”s. The CUI remains in
read status register mode until it receives another
command.
Reliable byte/word programs can only occur when
VCC and VPEN are valid. If a byte/word program is
attempted while VPEN ≤ VPENLK, status register bits
SR.4 and SR.3 will be set to “1.” Successful
byte/word programs require that the corresponding
block lock-bit be cleared or, if set, that RP# = VHH.
If a byte/word program is attempted when the
corresponding block lock-bit is set and RP# = VIH,
SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1.” Byte/Word
program operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce
spurious results and should not be attempted.
4.10
Configuration Command
The Status (STS) pin can be configured to different
states using the Configuration command. Once the
STS pin has been configured, it remains in that
configuration until another configuration command
is issued or RP# is asserted low. Initially, the STS
pin defaults to RY/BY# operation where RY/BY#
low indicates that the state machine is busy.
RY/BY# high indicates that the state machine is
ready for a new operation or suspended. Table 15
displays the possible STS configurations.
To reconfigure the Status (STS) pin to other modes,
the Configuration command is given followed by the
desired configuration code. The three alternate
configurations are all pulse mode for use as a
system interrupt as described below. For these
configurations, bit 0 controls Erase Complete
interrupt pulse, and bit 1 controls Program
Complete interrupt pulse. Supplying the 00h
configuration code with the Configuration command
resets the STS pin to the default RY/BY# level
mode. The possible configurations and their usage
are described in Table 15. The Configuration
command may only be given when the device is not
busy or suspended. Check SR.7 for device status.
PRELIMINARY
Set Block and Master Lock-Bit
Commands
A flexible block locking and unlocking scheme is
enabled via a combination of block lock-bits and a
master lock-bit. The block lock-bits gate program
and erase operations while the master lock-bit
gates block-lock bit modification. With the master
lock-bit not set, individual block lock-bits can be set
using the Set Block Lock-Bit command. The Set
Master Lock-Bit command, in conjunction with
RP# = VHH, sets the master lock-bit. After the
master lock-bit is set, subsequent setting of block
lock-bits requires both the Set Block Lock-Bit
command and VHH on the RP# pin. These
commands are invalid while the WSM is running or
the device is suspended. See Table 14 for a
summary of hardware and software write protection
options.
Set block lock-bit and master lock-bit commands
are executed by a two-cycle sequence. The set
block or master lock-bit setup along with
appropriate block or device address is written
followed by either the set block lock-bit confirm (and
an address within the block to be locked) or the set
master lock-bit confirm (and any device address).
The WSM then controls the set lock-bit algorithm.
After the sequence is written, the device
automatically outputs status register data when
read (see Figure 11). The CPU can detect the
completion of the set lock-bit event by analyzing the
STS pin output or status register bit SR.7.
When the set lock-bit operation is complete, status
register bit SR.4 should be checked. If an error is
detected, the status register should be cleared. The
CUI will remain in read status register mode until a
new command is issued.
This two-step sequence of set-up followed by
execution ensures that lock-bits are not accidentally
set. An invalid Set Block or Master Lock-Bit
command will result in status register bits SR.4 and
SR.5 being set to “1.” Also, reliable operations
occur only when VCC and VPEN are valid. With VPEN
≤ VPENLK, lock-bit contents are protected against
alteration.
29
E
®
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
A successful set block lock-bit operation requires
that the master lock-bit be zero or, if the master
lock-bit is set, that RP# = VHH. If it is attempted with
the master lock-bit set and RP# = VIH, SR.1 and
SR.4 will be set to “1” and the operation will fail. Set
block lock-bit operations while VIH < RP# < VHH
produce spurious results and should not be
attempted. A successful set master lock-bit
operation requires that RP# = VHH. If it is attempted
with RP# = VIH, SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1”
and the operation will fail. Set master lock-bit
operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious
results and should not be attempted.
4.12
Clear Block Lock-Bits
Command
All set block lock-bits are cleared in parallel via the
Clear Block Lock-Bits command. With the master
lock-bit not set, block lock-bits can be cleared using
only the Clear Block Lock-Bits command. If the
master lock-bit is set, clearing block lock-bits
requires both the Clear Block Lock-Bits command
and VHH on the RP# pin. This command is invalid
while the WSM is running or the device is
suspended. See Table 14 for a summary of
hardware and software write protection options.
Clear block lock-bits command is executed by a
two-cycle sequence. A clear block lock-bits setup is
first written. The device automatically outputs status
register data when read (see Figure 12). The CPU
can detect completion of the clear block lock-bits
event by analyzing the STS pin output or status
register bit SR.7.
When the operation is complete, status register bit
SR.5 should be checked. If a clear block lock-bit
error is detected, the status register should be
cleared. The CUI will remain in read status register
mode until another command is issued.
This two-step sequence of set-up followed by
execution ensures that block lock-bits are not
accidentally cleared. An invalid Clear Block
Lock-Bits command sequence will result in status
register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.” Also, a
reliable clear block lock-bits operation can only
occur when VCC and VPEN are valid. If a clear block
lock-bits operation is attempted while VPEN ≤
VPENLK, SR.3 and SR.5 will be set to “1.” A
successful clear block lock-bits operation requires
that the master lock-bit is not set or, if the master
lock-bit is set, that RP# = VHH. If it is attempted with
the master lock-bit set and RP# = VIH, SR.1 and
SR.5 will be set to “1” and the operation will fail. A
clear block lock-bits operation with VIH < RP# < VHH
produce spurious results and should not be
attempted.
If a clear block lock-bits operation is aborted due to
VPEN or VCC transitioning out of valid range or RP#
active transition, block lock-bit values are left in an
undetermined state. A repeat of clear block lockbits is required to initialize block lock-bit contents to
known values. Once the master lock-bit is set, it
cannot be cleared.

5.0 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
5.1
5.3
Three-Line Output Control
The device will often be used in large memory
arrays. Intel provides five control inputs (CE0, CE1,
CE2, OE#, and RP#) to accommodate multiple
memory connections. This control provides for:
a. Lowest possible memory power dissipation.
b. Complete assurance that
contention will not occur.
data
bus
To use these control inputs efficiently, an address
decoder should enable the device (see Table 2,
Chip Enable Truth Table) while OE# should be
connected to all memory devices and the system’s
READ# control line. This assures that only selected
memory devices have active outputs while deselected memory devices are in standby mode.
RP# should be connected to the system
POWERGOOD signal to prevent unintended writes
during system power transitions. POWERGOOD
should also toggle during system reset.
5.2
STS and Block Erase, Program,
and Lock-Bit Configuration
Polling
STS is an open drain output that should be
connected to VCCQ by a pull-up resistor to provide a
hardware method of detecting block erase,
program, and lock-bit configuration completion. In
default mode, it transitions low after block erase,
program, or lock-bit configuration commands and
returns to High Z when the WSM has finished
executing the internal algorithm. For alternate
configurations of the STS pin, see the Configuration
command.
STS can be connected to an interrupt input of the
system CPU or controller. It is active at all times.
STS, in default mode, is also High Z when the
device is in block erase suspend (with programming
inactive) or in reset/power-down mode.
40
E
Power Supply Decoupling
Flash memory power switching characteristics
require careful device decoupling. System
designers are interested in three supply current
issues; standby current levels, active current levels
and transient peaks produced by falling and rising
edges of CE0, CE1, CE2, and OE#. Transient
current magnitudes depend on the device outputs’
capacitive and inductive loading. Two-line control
and proper decoupling capacitor selection will
suppress transient voltage peaks. Since Intel
StrataFlash memory devices draw their power from
three VCC pins (these devices do not include a VPP
pin), it is recommended that systems without
separate power and ground planes attach a 0.1 µF
ceramic capacitor between each of the device’s
three VCC pins (this includes VCCQ) and ground.
These high-frequency, low-inductance capacitors
should be placed as close as possible to package
leads on each StrataFlash device. Each device
should have a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor connected
between its VCC and GND. These high-frequency,
low inductance capacitors should be placed as
close as possible to package leads. Additionally, for
every eight devices, a 4.7 µF electrolytic capacitor
should be placed between VCC and GND at the
array’s power supply connection. The bulk capacitor
will overcome voltage slumps caused by PC board
trace inductance.
5.4
VCC, VPEN, RP# Transitions
Block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration are
not guaranteed if VPEN or VCC falls outside of the
specified operating ranges, or RP# ≠ VIH or VHH. If
RP# transitions to VIL during block erase, program,
or lock-bit configuration, STS (in default mode) will
remain low for a maximum time of tPLPH + tPHRH
until the reset operation is complete. Then, the
operation will abort and the device will enter
reset/power-down mode. The aborted operation
may leave data partially corrupted after
programming, or partially altered after an erase or
lock-bit configuration. Therefore, block erase and
lock-bit configuration commands must be repeated
after normal operation is restored. Device power-off
or RP# = VIL clears the status register.
PRELIMINARY
E
®
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT
The CUI latches commands issued by system
software and is not altered by VPEN, CE0, CE1, or
CE2 transitions, or WSM actions. Its state is read
array mode upon power-up, after exit from
reset/power-down mode, or after VCC transitions
below VLKO. VCC must be kept at or above VPEN
during VCC transitions.
A system designer must guard against spurious
writes for VCC voltages above VLKO when VPEN is
active. Since WE# must be low and the device
enabled (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table) for
a command write, driving WE# to VIH or disabling
the device will inhibit writes. The CUI’s two-step
command sequence architecture provides added
protection against data alteration.
After block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration,
even after VPEN transitions down to VPENLK, the CUI
must be placed in read array mode via the Read
Array command if subsequent access to the
memory array is desired. VPEN must be kept at or
below VCC during VPEN transitions.
Keeping VPEN below VPENLK prevents inadvertent
data alteration. In-system block lock and unlock
capability protects the device against inadvertent
programming. The device is disabled while RP# =
VIL regardless of its control inputs.
5.5
5.6
Power-Up/Down Protection
The device is designed to offer protection against
accidental block erasure, programming, or lock-bit
configuration during power transitions. Internal
circuitry resets the CUI to read array mode at
power-up.
PRELIMINARY
Power Dissipation
When designing portable systems, designers must
consider battery power consumption not only during
device operation, but also for data retention during
system idle time. Flash memory’s nonvolatility
increases usable battery life because data is
retained when system power is removed.

NOTES:
CEX low is defined as the first edge of CE0, CE1, or CE2 that enables the device. CEX high is defined at the first edge of CE0,
CE1, or CE2 that disables the device (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table).
1. Read timing characteristics during block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration operations are the same as during
read-only operations. Refer to AC Characteristics–Read-Only Operations.
2. A write operation can be initiated and terminated with either CEX or WE#.
3. Sampled, not 100% tested.
4. Refer to Table 4 for valid AIN and DIN for block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration.
5. STS timings are based on STS configured in its RY/BY# default mode.
6. For array access, tAVQV is required in addition to tWHGL for any accesses after a write.
7. VPEN should be held at VPENH (and if necessary RP# should be held at VHH) until determination of block erase, program, or
lock-bit configuration success (SR.1/3/4/5 = 0).
8. Write pulse width (tWP) is defined from CEX or WE# going low (whichever goes low first) to CEX or WE# going high
(whichever goes high first). Hence, tWP = tWLWH = tELEH = tWLEH = tELWH. If CEX is driven low 10 ns before WE# going low,
WE# pulse width requirement decreases to tWP - 10 ns.
9. Write pulse width high (tWPH) is defined from CEX or WE# going high (whichever goes high first) to CEX or WE# going low
(whichever goes low first). Hence, tWPH = tWHWL = tEHEL = tWHEL = tEHWL.
