Replacing Spansion® S34ML01G200 with Macronix MX30LF1G18AC
1. Introduction
This application note is a guide for migrating to the Macronix MX30LF1G18AC from the
Spansion® S34ML01G200 1Gb, 3V, NAND flash memory.
The document does not provide detailed information on the individual devices, but highlights the
major similarities and differences between them. The comparison covers the general features,
performance, command codes and other differences.
The information in this document is based on datasheets listed in Section 10. Newer versions of
the datasheets may override the contents of this document.
2. Features
Both flash device families have similar features and functions as shown in Table 2-1.

5. Package Pin/Ball Definition
Package physical dimensions are similar to each other. For detailed information, please refer to
the individual datasheets. Tables 5-1 and 5-2 show differences in pin assignments between the
Macronix and Spansion devices. S34ML01G200 can be replaced by the MX30LF1G18AC
without pin conflicts. Only 48-TSOP pin #38 (ball G5 on VFBGA) may need special attention
because the pin is designated “PT” which is chip protected function on the MX30LF1G18AC-TI,
but S34ML01G200 is designated as NC.

6-2 Status Register
When a flash Read, Program, or Erase operation is in progress, either the “Ready/Busy# Pin
Checking” or “Status Output Checking” method may be used to monitor the operation. Both are
standard NAND flash algorithms and can be used for both device families. Table 6-3 shows that
Status Output content provided by the Read Status command (70h) is compatible.

8. Power-Up Timing
Macronix and Spansion® power-up sequences are similar, but the timing is slightly different.
Although both devices use 2.7V (VCC min.) as the start point, timing references are different.
Check the system timing to determine if adjustments are needed.

9. Summary
Macronix MX30LF1G18AC and Spansion® S34ML01G200 NAND have similar features and pinouts.
More advanced features such as cache access are implemented slightly differently. Because basic
Read, Program, and Erase commands as well as block, page, spare area sizes and ECC
requirements are the same, device migration may require minimal or no firmware modifications.
