AT45DB321C
1. Description
The AT45DB321C is an SPI compatible, serial-interface Flash memory ideally suited
for a wide variety of digital voice-, image-, program code- and datastorage applications. The AT45DB321C supports a 4-wire serial interface known as
RapidS for applications requiring very high speed operations.
Its 34,603,008 bits of memory are organized as 8192 pages of 528 bytes each. In
addition to the 33-megabit main memory, the AT45DB321C also contains two SRAM
buffers of 528 bytes each.
The buffers allow the receiving of data while a page in the main page Memory is being
reprogrammed, as well as writing a continuous data stream. EEPROM emulation (bit
or byte alterability) is easily handled with a self-contained three step read-modify-write
operation. Unlike conventional Flash memories that are accessed randomly with multiple address lines and a parallel interface, the DataFlash uses a RapidS serial
interface to sequentially access its data. The simple sequential access dramatically
reduces active pin count, facilitates hardware layout, increases system reliability, minimizes switching noise, and reduces package size. The device is optimized for use in
many commercial and industrial applications where high-density, low-pin count, lowvoltage and low-power are essential. The device operates at clock frequencies up to
40 MHz with a typical active read current consumption of 10 mA.
3387L–DFLASH–6/06
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the AT45DB321C does not require high input
voltages for programming. The device operates from a single power supply, 2.7V to 3.6V, for
both the program and read operations. The AT45DB321C is enabled through the chip select pin
(CS) and accessed via a three-wire interface consisting of the Serial Input (SI), Serial Output
(SO), and the Serial Clock (SCK).
All programming and erase cycles are self-timed.

4. Memory Array
To provide optimal flexibility, the memory array of the AT45DB321C is divided into three levels of
granularity comprising of sectors, blocks, and pages. The “Memory Architecture Diagram” illustrates the breakdown of each level and details the number of pages per sector and block. All
program operations to the DataFlash occur on a page by page basis. The erase operations can
be performed at the block or page level.

5. Device Operation
The device operation is controlled by instructions from the host processor. The list of instructions
and their associated opcodes are contained in Tables 1 through 4. A valid instruction starts with
the falling edge of CS followed by the appropriate 8-bit opcode and the desired buffer or main
memory address location. While the CS pin is low, toggling the SCK pin controls the loading of
the opcode and the desired buffer or main memory address location through the SI (serial input)
pin. All instructions, addresses, and data are transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.
Buffer addressing is referenced in the datasheet using the terminology BFA9-BFA0 to denote
the 10 address bits required to designate a byte address within a buffer. Main memory addressing is referenced using the terminology PA12-PA0 and BA9-BA0, where PA12-PA0 denotes the
13 address bits required to designate a page address and BA9-BA0 denotes the 10 address bits
required to designate a byte address within the page.
5.1
Read Commands
By specifying the appropriate opcode, data can be read from the main memory or from either
one of the two SRAM data buffers. The DataFlash supports RapidS protocol for Mode 0 and
Mode 3. Please refer to the “Detailed Bit-level Read Timing” diagrams in this datasheet for
details on the clock cycle sequences for each mode.
5.1.1
Continuous Array Read
By supplying an initial starting address for the main memory array, the Continuous Array Read
command can be utilized to sequentially read a continuous stream of data from the device by
simply providing a clock signal; no additional addressing information or control signals need to
be provided. The DataFlash incorporates an internal address counter that will automatically
increment on every clock cycle, allowing one continuous read operation without the need of
additional address sequences. To perform a continuous read, an opcode of E8H must be
clocked into the device. The opcode is followed by three address bytes (which comprises 24-bit
page and byte address sequence) and 32 don’t care clock cycles. The first bit of the 24-bit
address sequence is reserved for upward and downward compatibility to larger and smaller density devices (see the notes under Section 13.6 on page 25. The next 13 bits (PA12-PA0) of the
24-bit address sequence specify which page of the main memory array to read, and the last
10 bits (BA9-BA0) of the 24-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within the
page. The 32 don’t care clock cycles that follow the four address bytes are needed to initialize
the read operation. Following the don’t care clock cycles, additional clock pulses on the SCK pin
will result in data being output on the SO (serial output) pin.
The CS pin must remain low during the loading of the opcode, the address bytes, the don’t care
bytes, and the reading of data. When the end of a page in main memory is reached during a
Continuous Array Read, the device will continue reading at the beginning of the next page with
no delays incurred during the page boundary crossover (the crossover from the end of one page
to the beginning of the next page). When the last bit in the main memory array has been read,
the device will continue reading back at the beginning of the first page of memory. As with crossing over page boundaries, no delays will be incurred when wrapping around from the end of the
array to the beginning of the array.
A low-to-high transition on the CS pin will terminate the read operation and tristate the output pin
(SO). The maximum SCK frequency allowable for the Continuous Array Read is defined by the
fCAR specification. The Continuous Array Read bypasses both data buffers and leaves the contents of the buffers unchanged.

5.1.2
Main Memory Page Read
A main memory page read allows the user to read data directly from any one of the 8192 pages
in the main memory, bypassing both of the data buffers and leaving the contents of the buffers
unchanged. To start a page read, an opcode of D2H must be clocked into the device. The
opcode is followed by three address bytes (which comprise 24-bit page and byte address
sequence) and 32 don’t care clock cycles. The first bit of the 24-bit address sequence is a
reserved bit, the next 13 bits (PA12-PA0) of the 24-bit address sequence specify the page in
main memory to be read, and the last 10 bits (BA9-BA0) of the 24-bit address sequence specify
the starting byte address within that page. The 32 don’t care clock cycles that follow the three
address bytes are sent to initialize the read operation. Following the don’t care bytes, additional
pulses on SCK result in data being output on the SO (serial output) pin. The CS pin must remain
low during the loading of the opcode, the address bytes, the don’t care bytes, and the reading of
data. When the end of a page in main memory is reached, the device will continue reading back
at the beginning of the same page. A low-to-high transition on the CS pin will terminate the read
operation and tristate the output pin (SO). The maximum SCK frequency allowable for the Main
Memory Page Read is defined by the fSCK specification. The Main Memory Page Read bypasses
both data buffers and leaves the contents of the buffers unchanged.
5.1.3
Buffer Read
Data can be read from either one of the two buffers, using different opcodes to specify which
buffer to read from. An opcode of D4H is used to read data from buffer 1, and an opcode of D6H
is used to read data from buffer 2. To perform a buffer read, the opcode must be clocked into the
device followed by three address bytes comprised of 14 don’t care bits and 10 buffer address
bits (BFA9-BFA0). Following the three address bytes, an additional don’t care byte must be
clocked in to initialize the read operation. Since the buffer size is 528 bytes, 10 buffer address
bits are required to specify the first byte of data to be read from the buffer. The CS pin must
remain low during the loading of the opcode, the address bytes, the don’t care bytes, and the
reading of data. When the end of a buffer is reached, the device will continue reading back at the
beginning of the buffer. A low-to-high transition on the CS pin will terminate the read operation
and tristate the output pin (SO).
5.2
5.2.1
Program and Erase Commands
Buffer Write
Data can be clocked in from the SI pin into either buffer 1 or buffer 2. To load data into either
buffer, a 1-byte opcode, 84H for buffer 1 or 87H for buffer 2, must be clocked into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 14 don’t care bits and 10 buffer address bits (BFA9BFA0). The 10 buffer address bits specify the first byte in the buffer to be written. After the last
address byte has been clocked into the device, data can then be clocked in on subsequent clock
cycles. If the end of the data buffer is reached, the device will wrap around back to the beginning
of the buffer. Data will continue to be loaded into the buffer until a low-to-high transition is
detected on the CS pin.

3387L–DFLASH–6/06
5.2.2
Buffer to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase:
Data written into either buffer 1 or buffer 2 can be programmed into the main memory. To start
the operation, an 8-bit opcode, 83H for buffer 1 or 86H for buffer 2, must be clocked into the
device followed by three address bytes consisting of one reserved bit, 13 page address bits
(PA12-PA0) that specify the page in the main memory to be written and 10 don’t care bits. When
a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS pin, the part will first erase the selected page in main
memory (the erased state is a logic 1) and then program the data stored in the buffer into the
specified page in main memory. Both the erase and the programming of the page are internally
self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of tEP. During this time, the status register
and the RDY/BUSY pin will indicate that the part is busy.
5.2.3
Buffer to Main Memory Page Program without Built-in Erase
A previously-erased page within main memory can be programmed with the contents of either
buffer 1 or buffer 2. To start the operation, an 8-bit opcode, 88H for buffer 1 or 89H for buffer 2,
must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consisting of one reserved bit,
13 page address bits (PA12-PA0) that specify the page in the main memory to be written and 10
don’t care bits. When a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS pin, the part will program the
data stored in the buffer into the specified page in the main memory. It is necessary that the
page in main memory that is being programmed has been previously erased using one of the
erase commands (Page Erase or Block Erase). The programming of the page is internally selftimed and should take place in a maximum time of tP. During this time, the status register and
the RDY/BUSY pin will indicate that the part is busy.
5.2.4
Page Erase
The Page Erase command can be used to individually erase any page in the main memory array
allowing the Buffer to Main Memory Page Program without Built-in Erase command to be utilized
at a later time. To perform a page erase, an opcode of 81H must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of one reserved bit, 13 page address bits (PA12-PA0)
that specify the page in the main memory to be erased and 10 don’t care bits. When a low-tohigh transition occurs on the CS pin, the part will erase the selected page (the erased state is a
logic 1). The erase operation is internally self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of
tPE. During this time, the status register and the RDY/BUSY pin will indicate that the part is busy.
5.2.5
Block Erase
A block of eight pages can be erased at one time. This command is useful when large amounts
of data has to be written into the device. This will avoid using multiple Page Erase Commands.
To perform a block erase, an opcode of 50H must be loaded into the device, followed by three
address bytes comprised of one reserved bit, 10 page address bits (PA12-PA3) and 13 don’t
care bits. The 10 page address bits are used to specify which block of eight pages is to be
erased. When a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS pin, the part will erase the selected
block of eight pages. The erase operation is internally self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of tBE. During this time, the status register and the RDY/BUSY pin will indicate that
the part is busy.

5.3.1
Main Memory Page Program Through Buffer
This operation is a combination of the Buffer Write and Buffer to Main Memory Page Program
with Built-in Erase operations. Data is first clocked into buffer 1 or buffer 2 from the input pin (SI)
and then programmed into a specified page in the main memory. To initiate the operation, an
8-bit opcode, 82H for buffer 1 or 85H for buffer 2, must first be clocked into the device, followed
by three address bytes. The address bytes are comprised of one reserved bit, 13 page address
bits (PA12-PA0) that select the page in the main memory where data is to be written, and
10 buffer address bits (BFA9-BFA0) that select the first byte in the buffer to be written. After all
address bytes are clocked in, the part will take data from the input pins and store it in the specified data buffer. If the end of the buffer is reached, the device will wrap around back to the
beginning of the buffer. When there is a low-to-high transition on the CS pin, the part will first
erase the selected page in main memory to all 1s and then program the data stored in the buffer
into that memory page. Both the erase and the programming of the page are internally self-timed
and should take place in a maximum time of tEP. During this time, the status register and the
RDY/BUSY pin will indicate that the part is busy.
Additional Commands
Main Memory Page to Buffer Transfer
A page of data can be transferred from the main memory to either buffer 1 or buffer 2. To start
the operation, a 1-byte opcode, 53H for buffer 1 and 55H for buffer 2, must be clocked into the
device, followed by three address bytes comprised of one reserved bit, 13 page address bits
(PA12- PA0), which specify the page in main memory that is to be transferred, and 10 don’t care
bits. The CS pin must be low while toggling the SCK pin to load the opcode and the address
bytes from the input pin (SI). The transfer of the page of data from the main memory to the buffer
will begin when the CS pin transitions from a low to a high state. During the transfer of a page of
data (tXFR), the status register can be read to determine whether the transfer has been completed or not.
7
3387L–DFLASH–6/06
5.3.2
Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare
A page of data in main memory can be compared to the data in buffer 1 or buffer 2. To initiate
the operation, an 8-bit opcode, 60H for buffer 1 and 61H for buffer 2, must be followed by
24 address bits consisting of one reserved bit, 13 address bits (PA12 - PA0) which specify the
page in the main memory that is to be compared to the buffer, and ten don’t care bits. The CS
pin must be low while toggling the SCK pin to load the opcode, the address bits, and the don’t
care bits from the SI pin. On the low-to-high transition of the CS pin, the 528 bytes in the
selected main memory page will be compared with the 528 bytes in buffer 1 or buffer 2. During
this time (tXFR), the status register will indicate that the part is busy. On completion of the compare operation, bit 6 of the status register is updated with the result of the compare.
5.3.3
Auto Page Rewrite
This mode is only needed if multiple bytes within a page or multiple pages of data are modified in
a random fashion. This mode is a combination of two operations: Main Memory Page to Buffer
Transfer and Buffer to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase. A page of data is first
transferred from the main memory to buffer 1 or buffer 2, and then the same data (from buffer 1
or buffer 2) is programmed back into its original page of main memory. To start the rewrite operation, a 1-byte opcode, 58H for buffer 1 or 59H for buffer 2, must be clocked into the device,
followed by three address bytes comprised of one reserved bit, 13 page address bits
(PA12-PA0) that specify the page in main memory to be rewritten and 10 don’t care bits. When a
low-to-high transition occurs on the CS pin, the part will first transfer data from the page in main
memory to a buffer and then program the data from the buffer back into same page of main
memory. The operation is internally self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of tEP.
During this time, the status register and the RDY/BUSY pin will indicate that the part is busy.
If a sector is programmed or reprogrammed sequentially page by page, then the programming
algorithm shown in Figure 15-1 on page 31 is recommended. Otherwise, if multiple bytes in a
page or several pages are programmed randomly in a sector, then the programming algorithm
shown in Figure 15-2 on page 32 is recommended. Each page within a sector must be
updated/rewritten at least once within every 10,000 cumulative page erase/program operations
in that sector.
5.3.4
Status Register Read
The status register can be used to determine the device’s ready/busy status, the result of a Main
Memory Page to Buffer Compare operation, or whether the sector protection has been enabled.
To read the status register, an opcode of D7H must be loaded into the device. After the opcode
and optional dummy byte is clocked in, the 1-byte status register will be clocked out on the output pin (SO), starting with the next clock cycle. For applications over 25 MHz, the opcode must
be always followed with a dummy (don’t care) byte. The data in the status register, starting with
the MSB (bit 7), will be clocked out on the SO pin during the next eight clock cycles.
The most-significant bits of the status register will contain device information, while the remaining least-significant bit is reversed for future use and will have undefined value. After the one
byte of the status register has been clocked out, the sequence will repeat itself (as long as CS
remains low and SCK is being toggled). The data in the status register is constantly updated, so
each repeating sequence will output new data.
Ready/busy status is indicated using bit 7 of the status register. If bit 7 is a 1, then the device is
not busy and is ready to accept the next command. If bit 7 is a 0, then the device is in a busy
state. There are many operations that can cause the device to be in a busy state: Main Memory

AT45DB321C
Main Memory Page Program without Built-in Erase, Page Erase, Block Erase, Main Memory
Page Program, and Auto Page Rewrite.
Bit 1 in the Status Register is used to provide information to the user whether or not the sector
protection has been enabled or disabled, either by software-controlled method or hardware-controlled method. A logic 1 indicates that sector protection has been enabled and logic 0 indicates
that sector protection has been disabled.
The device density is indicated using bits 5, 4, 3, and 2 of the status register. For the
AT45DB321C, the four bits are 1,1, 0, 1. The decimal value of these four binary bits does not
equate to the device density; the four bits represent a combinational code relating to differing
densities of DataFlash devices. The device density is not the same as the density code indicated
in the JEDEC device ID information. The device density is provided only for backward
compatibility.
The result of the most recent Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare operation is indicated using
bit 6 of the status register. If bit 6 is a 0, then the data in the main memory page matches the
data in the buffer. If bit 6 is a 1, then at least one bit of the data in the main memory page does
not match the data in the buffer.

6. Sector Protection
Two protection methods, hardware and software controlled, are provided. The selection of which
sectors to be protected/unprotected from program and erase operations is defined in the Sector
Protection Register.
6.1
Software Sector Protection
Sectors specified for protection in the Sector Protection Register can be protected from program
and erase operations by issuing the Enable Sector Protection command. To enable the sector
protection using the software controlled method, the CS pin must first be asserted as it would be
with any other command. Once the CS pin has been asserted, the appropriate 4-byte command
sequence must be clocked in via the input pin (SI). After the last bit of the command sequence
has been clocked in, the CS pin must be deasserted after which the sector protection will be
enabled.

the input pin (SI). After the last bit of the command sequence has been clocked in, the CS pin
must be deasserted after which the sector protection will be disabled. The Disable Sector Protection command is ignored while the WP pin is asserted.

3387L–DFLASH–6/06
Software Sector Protection is useful in applications in which the WP pin is not or cannot be controlled by a host processor. In such instances, the WP pin may be left floating (the WP pin is
pulled high internally) and sector protection can be controlled using the software commands.
If the device is power cycled, then the Software Sector Protection will be disabled. Once the
device is powered up, the Enable Sector Protection command should be reissued if sector protection is desired and if the WP pin is not used. The RESET pin has no effect on the Software
Sector Protection.
6.2
Hardware Sector Protection
Sectors specified for protection in Sector Protection Register can be protected from program
and erase operations by utilizing the Write Protection (WP) pin. The protection can be enabled
by asserting the WP pin and keeping the pin in its asserted state. Any sector specified for protection cannot be erased or reprogrammed as long as the WP pin is asserted. The protection
can be disabled by deasserting the WP pin high. A filter is provided on the WP pin to help protect
against spurious noise on the WP pin. Hardware Sector Protection will provide continuous protection, based on the contents of the Sector Protection Register, in an application where WP is
always driven low. Please read “Write Protect (WP)” on page 15 for more information.

Erasing the Sector Protection Register
To erase the Sector Protection Register, the CS pin must first be asserted. Once the CS pin has
been asserted, the 4-byte erase command sequence must be clocked in via the SI (serial input)
pin. After the last bit of the command sequence has been clocked in, the CS pin must be deasserted to initiate the internally self-timed erase cycle (tPE). The Ready/Busy status will indicate
that the device is busy during the erase cycle. The erased state of each bit (of a byte) in the Sector Protection Register indicates that the corresponding sector is flagged for protection. The
RESET pin is disabled during this erase cycle to prevent incomplete erasure of the Sector Protection Register.

Programming the Sector Protection Register
To program the Sector Protection Register, the CS pin must first be asserted. Once the CS pin
has been asserted, the 4-byte command sequence must be clocked in via the SI (serial input)
pin. After the last bit of the command sequence has been clocked in, the data for the contents of
the Sector Protection Register must be clocked in. The first byte corresponds to sector 0 (0a,
0b), the second byte corresponds to Sector 1 and the last byte (byte 16) corresponds to Sector
15. After the last bit of data has been clocked in, the CS pin must be deasserted to initiate the
internally self-timed program cycle (tP). The Ready/Busy status will indicate that the device is
busy during the program cycle. The RESET pin is disabled during this program cycle to prevent
incomplete programming of the sector protection register.

Reading the Sector Protection Register
To read the Sector Protection Register, the CS pin must first be asserted. Once the CS pin has
been asserted, a 4-byte command sequence 32H, 00H, 00H, 00H and 32 don’t care clock cycles
must be clocked in via the SI (serial input) pin. The 32 don’t care clock cycles are required to initialize the read operation. After the 32 don’t care clock cycles, any additional clock pulses on the
SCK pin will result in data being output on the SO (serial output) pin. The read will begin with
Byte_1 of the Sector Protection Register for Sector_0, followed with Byte_2 for Sector_1. The
read operation will continue until Byte_16 for Sector_15 is read. Once the last byte is read a lowto-high transition on the CS pin is required to terminate the read operation.

6.3.4
Various Aspects About the Sector Protection Register
Due to the sharing of the internal circuitry, the contents of the buffer 1 will get modified during the
erase and programming of Sector Protection Register. If the device is powered down during
erasing or programming the sector protection register, then the contents of the Sector Protection
Register cannot be guaranteed. The Sector Protection Register can be erased or reprogrammed
with the sector protection enabled or disabled. Being able to reprogram the Sector Protection
Register with the sector protection enabled allows the user to temporarily disable the sector protection to an individual sector rather than disabling the sector protection completely.
The Sector Protection Register is subject to the same endurance characteristics as the main
memory array. Users are encouraged to carefully evaluate the number of times the Sector Protection Register will be modified during the course of the applications’ life cycle. If the application
requires that the Sector Protection Register be modified more than the specified endurance of
the DataFlash because the application needs to temporarily unprotect individual sectors (sector
protection remains enabled while the Sector Protection Register is reprogrammed), then the
application will need to limit this practice. Instead, a combination of temporarily unprotecting individual sectors along with disabling sector protection completely will need to be implemented by
the application to ensure that the endurance limits of the device are not exceeded.

7. Manufacturer and Device ID Read
This instruction conforms to the JEDEC standard and allows the user to read the Manufacturer ID, Device ID, and
Extended Device Information. A 1-byte opcode, 9FH, must be clocked into the device while the CS pin is low. After the
opcode is clocked in, the Manufacturer ID, 2 bytes of Device ID and Extended Device Information will be clocked out on the
SO pin. The fourth byte of the sequence output is the Extended Device Information String Length byte. This byte is used to
signify how many bytes of Extended Device Information will be output.

Based on JEDEC publication 106 (JEP106), Manufacturer ID data can be comprised of any number of bytes. Some manufacturers may have
Manufacturer ID codes that are two, three or even four bytes long with the first byte(s) in the sequence being 7FH. A system should detect code
7FH as a “Continuation Code” and continue to read Manufacturer ID bytes. The first non-7FH byte would signify the last byte of Manufacturer ID
data. For Atmel (and some other manufacturers), the Manufacturer ID data is comprised of only one byte.

3387L–DFLASH–6/06
7.2
Security Register
The AT45DB321C contains a specialized register that can be used for security purposes in system design. The Security Register is a unique 128-byte register that is divided into two portions.
The first 64 bytes (byte 0 to byte 63) of this page are allocated as a one-time user programmable
space. Once these 64 bytes have been programmed, they should not be reprogrammed. The
remaining 64 bytes of this page (byte 64 to byte 127) are factory programmed by Atmel and will
contain a unique number for each device. The factory programmed data is fixed and cannot be
changed.
The Security Register can be read by clocking in a 4-byte sequence 77H, 00H, 00H, 00H to the
device followed by 32 don’t care clock cycles. See the opcode Table 9-4 on page 20.
Note:
Next generation devices of the “D” family will not require the 32 don’t care clock cycles.
To program the first 64 bytes of the Security Register, a two step sequence must be used. The
first step requires that the user loads the desired data into Buffer 1 by using the Buffer 1 Write
operation (opcode 84H – “Buffer Write” on page 5). The user should specify the starting buffer
address as location zero and should write a full 64 bytes of information into the buffer. Otherwise, the first 64 bytes of the buffer may contain data that was previously stored in the buffer. It
is not necessary to fill the remaining 464 bytes (byte locations 64 through 527) of the buffer with
data. After the Buffer 1 Write operation has been completed, the Security Register can be subsequently programmed by reselecting the device and clocking in opcode 9AH into the device
followed by three don’t care bytes (24 clock cycles). After the final don’t care clock cycle has
been completed, a low-to-high transition on the CS pin will cause the device to initiate an internally self-timed program operation in which the contents of Buffer 1 will be programmed into the
Security Register. Only the first 64 bytes of data in Buffer 1 will be programmed into the Security
Register; the remaining 464 bytes of the buffer will be ignored. The Security Register program
operation should take place in a maximum time of tP.
7.3
Operation Mode Summary
The modes described can be separated into two groups – modes that make use of the Flash
memory array (Group A) and modes that do not make use of the Flash memory array (Group B).
Group A modes consist of:
1. Main Memory Page Read
2. Continuous Array Read
3. Main Memory Page to Buffer 1 (or 2) Transfer
4. Main Memory Page to Buffer 1 (or 2) Compare
5. Buffer 1 (or 2) to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase
6. Buffer 1 (or 2) to Main Memory Page Program without Built-in Erase
7. Main Memory Page Program through Buffer 1 (or 2)
8. Page Erase
9. Block Erase
10. Auto Page Rewrite
Group B modes consist of:
1. Buffer 1 (or 2) Read
2. Buffer 1 (or 2) Write
3. Status Register Read
4. Manufacturer and Device ID Read
14
AT45DB321C
3387L–DFLASH–6/06
AT45DB321C
If a Group A mode is in progress (not fully completed), then another mode in Group A should not
be started. However, during this time in which a Group A mode is in progress, modes in Group B
can be started, except the first two Group A commands (Memory Array Read Commands).
This gives the DataFlash the ability to virtually accommodate a continuous data stream. While
data is being programmed into main memory from buffer 1, data can be loaded into buffer 2 (or
vice versa). See application note AN-4 (“Using Atmel’s Serial DataFlash”) for more details.
7.4
Pin Descriptions
7.4.1
Serial Input (SI)
The SI pin is an input-only pin and is used to shift data serially into the device. The SI pin is used
for all data input, including opcodes and address sequences.
7.4.2
Serial Output (SO)
The SO pin is an output-only pin and is used to shift data serially out from the device.
7.4.3
Serial Clock (SCK)
The SCK pin is an input-only pin and is used to control the flow of data to and from the
DataFlash. Data is always clocked into the device on the rising edge of SCK and clocked out of
the device on the falling edge of SCK.
7.4.4
Chip Select (CS)
The DataFlash is selected when the CS pin is low. When the device is not selected, data will not
be accepted on the input pin (SI), and the output pin (SO) will remain in a high impedance state.
A high-to-low transition on the CS pin is required to start an operation, and a low-to-high transition on the CS pin is required to end an operation or to start an internally self-timed operation.
7.4.5
Write Protect (WP)
The WP pin is used to control the Hardware Sector Protection. Hardware Sector Protection is
enabled by asserting the WP pin and keeping the pin in it’s asserted state. Disabling Hardware
Sector Protection is accomplished by simply deasserting the WP pin. The WP pin will override
the software controlled sector protection method but only for protecting the sectors. For example, if the sectors were not previously protected by the Enable Sector Protection command, then
simply asserting the WP pin for the minimum specified time (tWPE) would enable the sector protection. When the WP pin is deasserted; however, the sector protection would no longer be
enabled as long as the Enable Sector Protection command was not issued while the WP pin was
asserted. If the Enable Sector Protection command was issued before or while the WP pin was
asserted, then simply deasserting the WP pin would not disable the sector protection. In this
case, the Disable Sector Protection command would need to be issued while the WP pin is
deasserted to disable the sector protection. The Disable Sector Protection command is also
ignored whenever the WP pin is asserted.
To ensure backwards compatibility with previous generations of DataFlash, the function of the
WP pin has not changed. Therefore, when the WP pin is asserted, certain sectors in the memory
array will be protected, and when the WP pin is deasserted, the memory array will be unprotected provided the Enable Sector Protection command hasn’t been issued. New devices are
shipped from Atmel with the contents of the Sector Protection Register pre-programmed with
“00H” (unprotect). The user can reprogram the Sector Protection Register to change which sectors will be protected by the WP pin.

RESET
A low state on the reset pin (RESET) will terminate the operation in progress and reset the internal state machine to an idle state. The device will remain in the reset condition as long as a low
level is present on the RESET pin. Normal operation can resume once the RESET pin is brought
back to a high level.
The device incorporates an internal power-on reset circuit, so there are no restrictions on the
RESET pin during power-on sequences. The RESET pin is also internally pulled high; therefore,
in low pin count applications, connection of the RESET pin is not necessary if this pin and feature will not be utilized. However, it is recommended that the RESET pin be driven high
externally whenever possible.
7.4.7
READY/BUSY
This open drain output pin will be driven low when the device is busy in an internally self-timed
operation. This pin, which is normally in a high state (through an external pull-up resistor), will be
pulled low during programming/erase operations, and page-to-buffer transfers.
The busy status indicates that the Flash memory array and one of the buffers cannot be
accessed; read and write operations to the other buffer can still be performed. During Page
Erase and Block Erase, read and write operations can be performed to both buffers.

AT45DB321C
3387L–DFLASH–6/06
AT45DB321C
8. Power-on/Reset State
When power is first applied to the device, or when recovering from a reset condition, the device
will default to Mode 3. In addition, the output pin (SO) will be in a high impedance state, and a
high-to-low transition on the CS pin will be required to start a valid instruction. The mode (Mode
3 or Mode 0) will be automatically selected on every falling edge of CS by sampling the inactive
clock state. After power is applied and VCC is at the minimum datasheet value, the system
should wait 20 ms before an operational mode (DataFlash) is started.
9. System Considerations
The RapidS serial interface is controlled by the serial clock SCK, serial input SI and chip select
CS pins. These signals must rise and fall monotonically and be free from noise. Excessive noise
or ringing on these pins can be misinterpreted as multiple edges and cause improper operation
of the device. The PC board traces must be kept to a minimum distance or appropriately terminated to ensure proper operation. If necessary, decoupling capacitors can be added on these
pins to provide filtering against noise glitches.
As system complexity continues to increase, voltage regulation is becoming more important.
A key element of any voltage regulation scheme is its current sourcing capability. Like all Flash
memories, the peak current for DataFlash occur during the programming and erase operation.
The regulator needs to supply this peak current requirement. An under specified regulator can
cause current starvation. Besides increasing system noise, current starvation during programming or erase can lead to improper operation and possible data corruption.
For applications that require random modifications of data within a sector, please refer to “Auto
Page Rewrite” on page 8.
Atmel C generation DataFlash utilizes a sophisticated adaptive algorithm during erase and programming to maximize the endurance over the life of the device. The algorithm uses a
verification mechanism to check if the memory cells have been erased or programmed successfully. If the memory cells were not erased or programmed completely, the algorithm erases or
programs the memory cells again. The process will continue until the device is erased or programmed successfully.
In order to optimize the erase and programming time, fixed timing should not be used.
Instead, the RDY/BUSY bit of the status register or the RDY/BUSY pin should be
monitored.

1. Maximum specified frequency for SPI compatibility is 33 MHz.
2. The device uses an adaptive algorithm during program and erase operations. Use the RDY/BUSY bit of the status register or
the RDY/BUSY pin to determine whether the program or erase operation has completed. Fixed timing should not be used.
3. Value are based on device characterization, not 100% tested in production.

13. AC Waveforms
Four different timing waveforms are shown below. Waveform 1 shows the SCK signal being low
when CS makes a high-to-low transition, and waveform 2 shows the SCK signal being high
when CS makes a high-to-low transition. In both cases, output SO becomes valid while the SCK
signal is still low (SCK low time is specified as tWL). Timing waveforms 1 and 2 conform to RapidS serial interface but for frequencies up to 33 MHz and are compatible with SPI Mode 0 and
SPI Mode 3 respectively. Waveforms 1 and 2 are also compatible with inactive clock polarity low
and inactive clock polarity high, since the maximum specified frequency in that case is 33 MHz.
Waveform 3 and waveform 4 illustrate general timing diagram for RapidS serial interface. These
are similar to waveform 1 and waveform 2, except that output SO is not restricted to become
valid during the tWL period. These timing waveforms are valid over the full frequency range (maximum frequency = 40 MHz) of the RapidS serial case.

Notes:
1. This type of algorithm is used for applications in which the entire array is programmed sequentially, filling the array page-bypage.
2. A page can be written using either a Main Memory Page Program operation or a Buffer Write operation followed by a Buffer
to Main Memory Page Program operation.
3. The algorithm above shows the programming of a single page. The algorithm will be repeated sequentially for each page
within the entire array.

Notes:
1. To preserve data integrity, each page of a DataFlash sector must be updated/rewritten at least once within every 10,000
cumulative page erase and program operations.
2. A Page Address Pointer must be maintained to indicate which page is to be rewritten. The Auto Page Rewrite command
must use the address specified by the Page Address Pointer.
3. Other algorithms can be used to rewrite portions of the Flash array. Low-power applications may choose to wait until 10,000
cumulative page erase and program operations have accumulated before rewriting all pages of the sector. See application
note AN-4 (“Using Atmel’s Serial DataFlash”) for more details.
