It is referred to as the Small Page family. The devices range from 128Mbits to 1Gbit and operate with either a 1.8V or 3V voltage supply. The size of a Page is either 528 Bytes (512 + 16 spare) or 264 Words (256 + 8 spare) depending on whether the device has a x8 or x16 bus width. The address lines are multiplexed with the Data Input/Output signals on a multiplexed x8 or x16 Input/Output bus. This interface reduces the pin count and makes it possible to migrate to other densities without changing the footprint. Each block can be programmed and erased over 100,000 cycles. To extend the lifetime of NAND Flash devices it is strongly recommended to implement an Error Correction Code (ECC). A Write Protect pin is available to give a hardware protection against program and erase operations. The devices feature an open-drain Ready/Busy output that can be used to identify if the Program/ Erase/Read (P/E/R) Controller is currently active. The use of an open-drain output allows the Ready/ Busy pins from several memories to be connected to a single pull-up resistor. A Copy Back command is available to optimize the management of defective blocks. When a Page Program operation fails, the data can be programmed in another page without having to resend the data to be programmed. The devices are available in the following packages: ■ TSOP48 12 x 20mm for all products ■ USOP48 12 x 17 x 0.65mm for 128Mb, 256Mb and 512Mb products ■ VFBGA55 (8 x 10 x 1mm, 6 x 8 ball array, 0.8mm pitch) for 128Mb and 256Mb products ■ TFBGA55 (8 x 10 x 1.2mm, 6 x 8 ball array, 0.8mm pitch) for 512Mb Dual Die product ■ VFBGA63 (9 x 11 x 1mm, 6 x 8 ball array, 0.8mm pitch) for the 512Mb product ■ TFBGA63 (9 x 11 x 1.2mm, 6 x 8 ball array, 0.8mm pitch) for the 1Gb Dual Die product Two options are available for the NAND Flash family: Chip Enable Don’t Care, which allows code to be directly downloaded by a microcontroller, as Chip Enable transitions during the latency time do not stop the read operation. A Serial Number, which allows each device to be uniquely identified. The Serial Number options is subject to an NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) and so not described in the datasheet. For more details of this option contact your nearest ST Sales office. For information on how to order these options refer to Table 28., Ordering Information Scheme. Devices are shipped from the factory with Block 0 always valid and the memory content bits, in valid blocks, erased to ’1’.

The memory array is organized in blocks where each block contains 32 pages. The array is split into two areas, the main area and the spare area. The main area of the array is used to store data whereas the spare area is typically used to store Error correction Codes, software flags or Bad Block identification. In x8 devices the pages are split into a main area with two half pages of 256 Bytes each and a spare area of 16 Bytes. In the x16 devices the pages are split into a 256 Word main area and an 8 Word spare area. Refer to Figure 10., Memory Array Organization. The Bad Block Information is written prior to shipping (refer to Bad Block Management section for more details). Table 4. shows the minimum number of valid blocks in each device. The values shown include both the Bad Blocks that are present when the device is shipped and the Bad Blocks that could develop later on. These blocks need to be managed using Bad Blocks Management, Block Replacement or Error Correction Codes (refer to SOFTWARE ALGORITHMS section). Table 4.

Data is valid tRLQV after the falling edge of R. The falling edge of R also increments the internal column address counter by one. Inputs/Outputs (I/O0-I/O7). Input/Outputs 0 to 7 are used to input the selected address, output the data during a Read operation or input a command or data during a Write operation. The inputs are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable. I/O0-I/ O7 are left floating when the device is deselected or the outputs are disabled. Write Enable (W). The Write Enable input, W, controls writing to the Command Interface, Input Address and Data latches. Both addresses and data are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable. During power-up and power-down a recovery time of 1µs (min) is required before the Command Interface is ready to accept a command. It is recommended to keep Write Enable high during the recovery time. Inputs/Outputs (I/O8-I/O15). Input/Outputs 8 to 15 are only available in x16 devices. They are used to output the data during a Read operation or input data during a Write operation. Command and Address Inputs only require I/O0 to I/O7. The inputs are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable. I/O8-I/O15 are left floating when the device is deselected or the outputs are disabled. Address Latch Enable (AL). The Address Latch Enable activates the latching of the Address inputs in the Command Interface. When AL is high, the inputs are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable. Command Latch Enable (CL). The Command Latch Enable activates the latching of the Command inputs in the Command Interface. When CL is high, the inputs are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable. Chip Enable (E). The Chip Enable input activates the memory control logic, input buffers, decoders and sense amplifiers. When Chip Enable is low, VIL, the device is selected. While the device is busy programming or erasing, Chip Enable transitions to High, VIH, are ignored and the device does not revert to the Standby mode. While the device is busy reading: ■ the Chip Enable input should be held Low during the whole busy time (tBLBH1) for devices that do not present the Chip Enable Don’t Care option. Otherwise, the read operation in progress is interrupted and the device reverts to the Standby mode. ■ for devices that feature the Chip Enable Don't Care option, Chip Enable going High during the busy time (tBLBH1) will not interrupt the read operation and the device will not revert to the Standby mode. Read Enable (R). The Read Enable, R, controls the sequential data output during Read opera- 16/57 Write Protect (WP). The Write Protect pin is an input that gives a hardware protection against unwanted program or erase operations. When Write Protect is Low, VIL, the device does not accept any program or erase operations. It is recommended to keep the Write Protect pin Low, VIL, during power-up and power-down. Ready/Busy (RB). The Ready/Busy output, RB, is an open-drain output that can be used to identify if the P/E/R Controller is currently active. When Ready/Busy is Low, VOL, a read, program or erase operation is in progress. When the operation completes Ready/Busy goes High, VOH. The use of an open-drain output allows the Ready/ Busy pins from several memories to be connected to a single pull-up resistor. A Low will then indicate that one, or more, of the memories is busy. Refer to the Ready/Busy Signal Electrical Characteristics section for details on how to calculate the value of the pull-up resistor. VDD Supply Voltage. VDD provides the power supply to the internal core of the memory device. It is the main power supply for all operations (read, program and erase). An internal voltage detector disables all functions whenever VDD is below 2.5V (for 3V devices) or 1.5V (for 1.8V devices) to protect the device from any involuntary program/erase during power-transitions. Each device in a system should have VDD decoupled with a 0.1µF capacitor. The PCB track widths should be sufficient to carry the required program and erase currents VSS Ground. Ground, VSS, is the reference for the power supply. It must be connected to the system ground. NAND128-A, NAND256-A, NAND512-A, NAND01G-A BUS OPERATIONS There are six standard bus operations that control the memory. Each of these is described in this section, see Table 5., Bus Operations, for a summary. Command Input Command Input bus operations are used to give commands to the memory. Command are accepted when Chip Enable is Low, Command Latch Enable is High, Address Latch Enable is Low and Read Enable is High. They are latched on the rising edge of the Write Enable signal. Only I/O0 to I/O7 are used to input commands. See Figure 23. and Table 20. for details of the timings requirements. Address Input Address Input bus operations are used to input the memory address. Three bus cycles are required to input the addresses for the 128Mb and 256Mb devices and four bus cycles are required to input the addresses for the 512Mb and 1Gb devices (refer to Tables 6 and 7, Address Insertion). The addresses are accepted when Chip Enable is Low, Address Latch Enable is High, Command Latch Enable is Low and Read Enable is High. They are latched on the rising edge of the Write Enable signal. Only I/O0 to I/O7 are used to input addresses. See Figure 24. and Table 20. for details of the timings requirements. Data is accepted only when Chip Enable is Low, Address Latch Enable is Low, Command Latch Enable is Low and Read Enable is High. The data is latched on the rising edge of the Write Enable signal. The data is input sequentially using the Write Enable signal. See Figure 25. and Table 20. and Table 21. for details of the timings requirements. Data Output Data Output bus operations are used to read: the data in the memory array, the Status Register, the Electronic Signature and the Serial Number. Data is output when Chip Enable is Low, Write Enable is High, Address Latch Enable is Low, and Command Latch Enable is Low. The data is output sequentially using the Read Enable signal. See Figure 26. and Table 21. for details of the timings requirements. Write Protect Write Protect bus operations are used to protect the memory against program or erase operations. When the Write Protect signal is Low the device will not accept program or erase operations and so the contents of the memory array cannot be altered. The Write Protect signal is not latched by Write Enable to ensure protection even during power-up. Standby Data Input Data Input bus operations are used to input the data to be programmed. When Chip Enable is High the memory enters Standby mode, the device is deselected, outputs are disabled and power consumption is reduced. Table 5.

The Commands are input on I/O0-I/O7 and are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable when the Command Latch Enable signal is high. Device operations are selected by writing specific commands to the Com- mand Register. The two-step command sequences for program and erase operations are imposed to maximize data security. The Commands are summarized in Table 9., Commands. Table 9.

The Read A and Read B commands act as pointers to the main memory area. Their use depends on the bus width of the device. ■ In x16 devices the Read A command (00h) sets the pointer to Area A (the whole of the main area) that is Words 0 to 255. ■ In x8 devices the Read A command (00h) sets the pointer to Area A (the first half of the main area) that is Bytes 0 to 255, and the Read B command (01h) sets the pointer to Area B (the second half of the main area) that is Bytes 256 to 511. In both the x8 and x16 devices the Read C command (50h), acts as a pointer to Area C (the spare memory area) that is Bytes 512 to 527 or Words 256 to 263. Once the Read A and Read C commands have been issued the pointer remains in the respective areas until another pointer code is issued. However, the Read B command is effective for only one operation, once an operation has been executed in Area B the pointer returns automatically to Area A. The pointer operations can also be used before a program operation, that is the appropriate code (00h, 01h or 50h) can be issued before the program command 80h is issued (see Figure 12.). Figure 11.

Once the area (main or spare) has been selected using the Read A, Read B or Read C commands four bus cycles (for 512Mb and 1Gb devices) or three bus cycles (for 128Mb and 256Mb devices) are required to input the address (refer to Table 6.) of the data to be read. The device defaults to Read A mode after powerup or a Reset operation. When reading the spare area addresses: ■ A0 to A3 (x8 devices) ■ A0 to A2 (x16 devices) are used to set the start address of the spare area while addresses: ■ A4 to A7 (x8 devices) ■ A3 to A7 (x16 devices) are ignored. Once the Read A or Read C commands have been issued they do not need to be reissued for subsequent read operations as the pointer remains in the respective area. However, the Read B command is effective for only one operation, once an operation has been executed in Area B the pointer returns automatically to Area A and so another Read B command is required to start another read operation in Area B. 22/57 Once a read command is issued three types of operations are available: Random Read, Page Read and Sequential Row Read. Random Read. Each time the command is issued the first read is Random Read. Page Read. After the Random Read access the page data is transferred to the Page Buffer in a time of tWHBH (refer to Table 21. for value). Once the transfer is complete the Ready/Busy signal goes High. The data can then be read out sequentially (from selected column address to last column address) by pulsing the Read Enable signal. Sequential Row Read. After the data in last column of the page is output, if the Read Enable signal is pulsed and Chip Enable remains Low then the next page is automatically loaded into the Page Buffer and the read operation continues. A Sequential Row Read operation can only be used to read within a block. If the block changes a new read command must be issued. Refer to Figure 15. and Figure 16. for details of Sequential Row Read operations. To terminate a Sequential Row Read operation set the Chip Enable signal to High for more than tEHEL. Sequential Row Read is not available when the Chip Enable Don't Care option is enabled. NAND128-A, NAND256-A, NAND512-A, NAND01G-A Figure 13.

The main area of the memory array is programmed by page, however partial page programming is allowed where any number of bytes (1 to 528) or words (1 to 264) can be programmed. The maximum number of consecutive partial page program operations allowed in the same page is three. After exceeding this a Block Erase command must be issued before any further program operations can take place in that page. Before starting a Page Program operation a Pointer operation can be performed to point to the area to be programmed. Refer to the Pointer Operations section and Figure 12. for details. Each Page Program operation consists of five steps (see Figure 17.): 1. one bus cycle is required to setup the Page Program command 2. four bus cycles are then required to input the program address (refer to Table 6.) 3. the data is then input (up to 528 Bytes/ 264 Words) and loaded into the Page Buffer 4. one bus cycle is required to issue the confirm command to start the P/E/R Controller. 5. The P/E/R Controller then programs the data into the array. Once the program operation has started the Status Register can be read using the Read Status Register command. During program operations the Status Register will only flag errors for bits set to '1' that have not been successfully programmed to '0'. During the program operation, only the Read Status Register and Reset commands will be accepted, all other commands will be ignored. Once the program operation has completed the P/ E/R Controller bit SR6 is set to ‘1’ and the Ready/ Busy signal goes High. The device remains in Read Status Register mode until another valid command is written to the Command Interface. Figure 17.

Refer to Pointer Operations section for details. 25/57 NAND128-A, NAND256-A, NAND512-A, NAND01G-A Copy Back Program The Copy Back Program operation is used to copy the data stored in one page and reprogram it in another page. The Copy Back Program operation does not require external memory and so the operation is faster and more efficient because the reading and loading cycles are not required. The operation is particularly useful when a portion of a block is updated and the rest of the block needs to be copied to the newly assigned block. If the Copy Back Program operation fails an error is signalled in the Status Register. However as the standard external ECC cannot be used with the Copy Back operation bit error due to charge loss cannot be detected. For this reason it is recommended to limit the number of Copy Back operations on the same data and or to improve the performance of the ECC. The Copy Back Program operation requires three steps: 1. The source page must be read using the Read A command (one bus write cycle to setup the command and then 4 bus write cycles to input the source page address). This operation copies all 264 Words/ 528 Bytes from the page into the Page Buffer. 2. When the device returns to the ready state (Ready/Busy High), the second bus write cycle of the command is given with the 4 bus cycles to input the target page address. Refer to Table 10. for the addresses that must be the same for the Source and Target pages. 3. Then the confirm command is issued to start the P/E/R Controller. After a Copy Back Program operation, a partialpage program is not allowed in the target page until the block has been erased. See Figure 18. for an example of the Copy Back operation. Table 10. Copy Back Program Addresses Density Same Address for Source and Target Pages 128 Mbit A23 256 Mbit A24 512 Mbit A25 512 Mbit DD(1) A24, A25 1 Gbit DD(1) A25, A26 Note: 1. DD = Dual Die. Figure 18.

An erase operation sets all of the bits in the addressed block to ‘1’. All previous data in the block is lost. An erase operation consists of three steps (refer to Figure 19.): 1. One bus cycle is required to setup the Block Erase command. 2. Only three bus cycles for 512Mb and 1Gb devices, or two for 128Mb and 256Mb devices are required to input the block address. The first cycle (A0 to A7) is not required as only addresses A14 to A26 (highest address depends on device density) are valid, A9 to A13 are ignored. In the last address cycle I/O2 to I/O7 must be set to VIL. 3. One bus cycle is required to issue the confirm command to start the P/E/R Controller. Once the erase operation has completed the Status Register can be checked for errors. Figure 19. Block Erase Operation tBLBH3 (Erase Busy time) RB Busy I/O 60h Block Erase Setup Code Block Address Inputs D0h Confirm Code 70h SR0 Read Status Register ai07593 Reset The Reset command is used to reset the Command Interface and Status Register. If the Reset command is issued during any operation, the operation will be aborted. If it was a program or erase operation that was aborted, the contents of the memory locations being modified will no longer be valid as the data will be partially programmed or erased. If the device has already been reset then the new Reset command will not be accepted. The Ready/Busy signal goes Low for tBLBH4 after the Reset command is issued. The value of tBLBH4 depends on the operation that the device was performing when the command was issued, refer to Table 21. for the values. 27/57 NAND128-A, NAND256-A, NAND512-A, NAND01G-A Read Status Register The device contains a Status Register which provides information on the current or previous Program or Erase operation. The various bits in the Status Register convey information and errors on the operation. The Status Register is read by issuing the Read Status Register command. The Status Register information is present on the output data bus (I/O0I/O7) on the falling edge of Chip Enable or Read Enable, whichever occurs last. When several memories are connected in a system, the use of Chip Enable and Read Enable signals allows the system to poll each device separately, even when the Ready/Busy pins are common-wired. It is not necessary to toggle the Chip Enable or Read Enable signals to update the contents of the Status Register. After the Read Status Register command has been issued, the device remains in Read Status Register mode until another command is issued. Therefore if a Read Status Register command is issued during a Random Read cycle a new read command must be issued to continue with a Page Read or Sequential Row Read operation. 28/57 The Status Register bits are summarized in Table 11., Status Register Bits. Refer to Table 11. in conjunction with the following text descriptions. Write Protection Bit (SR7). The Write Protection bit can be used to identify if the device is protected or not. If the Write Protection bit is set to ‘1’ the device is not protected and program or erase operations are allowed. If the Write Protection bit is set to ‘0’ the device is protected and program or erase operations are not allowed. P/E/R Controller Bit (SR6). The Program/Erase/ Read Controller bit indicates whether the P/E/R Controller is active or inactive. When the P/E/R Controller bit is set to ‘0’, the P/E/R Controller is active (device is busy); when the bit is set to ‘1’, the P/E/R Controller is inactive (device is ready). Error Bit (SR0). The Error bit is used to identify if any errors have been detected by the P/E/R Controller. The Error Bit is set to ’1’ when a program or erase operation has failed to write the correct data to the memory. If the Error Bit is set to ‘0’ the operation has completed successfully. SR5, SR4, SR3, SR2 and SR1 are Reserved. NAND128-A, NAND256-A, NAND512-A, NAND01G-A Table 11.

To read these codes two steps are required: 1. first use one Bus Write cycle to issue the Read Electronic Signature command (90h) 2. then perform two Bus Read operations – the first will read the Manufacturer Code and the second, the Device Code. Further Bus Read operations will be ignored. Refer to Table 12., Electronic Signature, for information on the addresses. ‘1’ Error – operation failed ‘0’ No Error – operation successful Table 12.

NAND Flash memories are programmed and erased by Fowler-Nordheim tunneling using a high voltage. Exposing the device to a high voltage for extended periods can cause the oxide layer to be damaged. For this reason, the number of program and erase cycles is limited (see Table 14. for value) and it is recommended to implement Garbage Collection, a Wear-Leveling Algorithm and an Error Correction Code, to extend the number of program and erase cycles and increase the data retention. To help integrate a NAND memory into an application ST Microelectronics can provide: ■ File System OS Native reference software, which supports the basic commands of file management. Contact the nearest ST Microelectronics sales office for more details. Bad Block Management Devices with Bad Blocks have the same quality level and the same AC and DC characteristics as devices where all the blocks are valid. A Bad Block does not affect the performance of valid blocks because it is isolated from the bit line and common source line by a select transistor. The devices are supplied with all the locations inside valid blocks erased (FFh). The Bad Block Information is written prior to shipping. Any block where the 6th Byte/ 1st Word in the spare area of the 1st page does not contain FFh is a Bad Block. The Bad Block Information must be read before any erase is attempted as the Bad Block Information may be erased. For the system to be able to recognize the Bad Blocks based on the original information it is recommended to create a Bad Block table following the flowchart shown in Figure 20. Block Replacement Over the lifetime of the device additional Bad Blocks may develop. In this case the block has to be replaced by copying the data to a valid block. These additional Bad Blocks can be identified as 30/57 attempts to program or erase them will give errors in the Status Register. As the failure of a page program operation does not affect the data in other pages in the same block, the block can be replaced by re-programming the current data and copying the rest of the replaced block to an available valid block. The Copy Back Program command can be used to copy the data to a valid block. See the “Copy Back Program” section for more details. Refer to Table 13. for the recommended procedure to follow if an error occurs during an operation. Table 13.

Garbage Collection New Area (After GC) Old Area Valid Page Invalid Page Free Page (Erased) AI07599B Garbage Collection Error Correction Code When a data page needs to be modified, it is faster to write to the first available page, and the previous page is marked as invalid. After several updates it is necessary to remove invalid pages to free some memory space. To free this memory space and allow further program operations it is recommended to implement a Garbage Collection algorithm. In a Garbage Collection software the valid pages are copied into a free area and the block containing the invalid pages is erased (see Figure 21.). An Error Correction Code (ECC) can be implemented in the Nand Flash memories to identify and correct errors in the data. For every 2048 bits in the device it is recommended to implement 22 bits of ECC (16 bits for line parity plus 6 bits for column parity). An ECC model is available in VHDL or Verilog. Contact the nearest ST Microelectronics sales office for more details. Figure 22. Error Detection Wear-leveling Algorithm For write-intensive applications, it is recommended to implement a Wear-leveling Algorithm to monitor and spread the number of write cycles per block. In memories that do not use a Wear-Leveling Algorithm not all blocks get used at the same rate. Blocks with long-lived data do not endure as many write cycles as the blocks with frequently-changed data. The Wear-leveling Algorithm ensures that equal use is made of all the available write cycles for each block. There are two wear-leveling levels: ■ First Level Wear-leveling, new data is programmed to the free blocks that have had the fewest write cycles ■ Second Level Wear-leveling, long-lived data is copied to another block so that the original block can be used for more frequentlychanged data. The Second Level Wear-leveling is triggered when the difference between the maximum and the minimum number of write cycles per block reaches a specific threshold.

Denali Software Corporation models are platform independent functional models designed to assist customers in performing entire system simulations (typical VHDL/Verilog). These models describe the logic behavior and timings of NAND Flash devices, and so allow software to be developed before hardware. IBIS simulations models. IBIS (I/O Buffer Information Specification) models describe the behav- 32/57 ior of the I/O buffers and electrical characteristics of Flash devices. These models provide information such as AC characteristics, rise/fall times and package mechanical data, all of which are measured or simulated at voltage and temperature ranges wider than those allowed by target specifications. IBIS models are used to simulate PCB connections and can be used to resolve compatibility issues when upgrading devices. They can be imported into SPICETOOLS.

HARDWARE INTERFACE EXAMPLES Nand Flash devices can be connected to a microcontroller system bus for code and data storage. For microcontrollers that have an embedded NAND controller the NAND Flash can be connected without the addition of glue logic (see Figure 43.). However a minimum of glue logic is required for general purpose microcontrollers that do not have an embedded NAND controller. The glue logic usually consists of a flip-flop to hold the Chip Enable, Address Latch Enable and Command Latch Enable signals stable during command and address latch operations, and some logic gates to simplify the firmware or make the design more robust. Figure 44. gives an example of how to connect a NAND Flash to a general purpose microcontroller. The additional OR gates allow the microcontroller’s Output Enable and Write Enable signals to be used for other peripherals. The OR gate between A3 and CSn maps the flip-flop and NAND I/O in different address spaces inside the same chip select unit, which improves the setup and hold times and simplifies the firmware. The structure uses the microcontroller DMA (Direct Memory Access) engines to optimize the transfer between the NAND Flash and the system RAM. For any interface with glue logic, the extra delay caused by the gates and flip-flop must be taken into account. This delay must be added to the microcontroller’s AC characteristics and register settings to get the NAND Flash setup and hold times. For mass storage applications (hard disk emulations or systems where a huge amount of storage is required) NAND Flash memories can be connected together to build storage modules (see Figure 45.).
