LE25U20AMB
CMOS IC
2M-bit (256K×8) Serial Flash Memory
Overview
The LE25U20AMB is a serial interface-compatible flash memory device with a 256K × 8-bit configuration. It uses a
single 2.5V power supply. While making the most of the features inherent to a serial flash memory device, the
LE25U20AMB is housed in an 8-pin ultra-miniature package. These features make this device ideally suited to storing
program codes in applications such as portable information devices, which are required to have increasingly more
compact dimensions. Moreover, by using the small sector erase function this product is also suitable for the parameter or
the date storage usage with comparatively little rewriting times that becomes a capacity shortage in EEPROM.

Device Operation
The LE25U20AMB features electrical on-chip erase functions using a single 2.5V power supply, that have been added
to the EPROM functions of the industry standard that support serial interfaces. Interfacing and control are facilitated by
incorporating the command registers inside the chip. The read, erase, program and other required functions of the
device are executed through the command registers. The command addresses and data input in accordance with "Table
2 Command Settings" are latched inside the device in order to execute the required operations. "Figure 3 Serial Input
Timing" shows the timing waveforms of the serial data input. First, at the falling CS edge the device is selected, and
serial input is enabled for the commands, addresses, etc. These inputs are introduced internally in sequence starting with
bit 7 in synchronization with the rising SCK edge. At this time, output pin SO is in the high-impedance state. The
output pin is placed in the low-impedance state when the data is output in sequence starting with bit 7 synchronized to
the falling clock edge during read, status register read and silicon ID. Refer to "Figure 4 Serial Output Timing" for the
serial output timing.
The LE25U20AMB supports both serial interface SPI mode 0 and SPI mode 3. At the falling CS edge, SPI mode 0 is
automatically selected if the logic level of SCK is low, and SPI mode 3 is automatically selected if the logic level of
SCK is high.

Description of Commands and Their Operations
"Table 2 Command Settings" provides a list and overview of the commands. A detailed description of the functions and
operations corresponding to each command is presented below.
1. Read
There are two read commands, the 4 bus cycle read command and 5 bus cycle read command. Consisting of the first
through fourth bus cycles, the 4 bus cycle read command inputs the 24-bit addresses following (03h), and the data in the
designated addresses is output synchronized to SCK. The data is output from SO on the falling clock edge of fourth bus
cycle bit 0 as a reference. "Figure 5-a 4 Bus Read" shows the timing waveforms.
Consisting of the first through fifth bus cycles, the 5 bus cycle read command inputs the 24-bit addresses and 8 dummy
bits following (0Bh). The data is output from SO using the falling clock edge of fifth bus cycle bit 0 as a reference.
"Figure 5-b 5 Bus Read" shows the timing waveforms. The only difference between these two commands is whether the
dummy bits in the fifth bus cycle are input.
When SCK is input continuously after the read command has been input and the data in the designated addresses has
been output, the address is automatically incremented inside the device while SCK is being input, and the corresponding
data is output in sequence. If the SCK input is continued after the internal address arrives at the highest address
(3FFFFh), the internal address returns to the lowest address (00000h), and data output is continued. By setting the logic
level of CS to high, the device is deselected, and the read cycle ends. While the device is deselected, the output pin SO
is in a high-impedance state.

2. Status Registers
The status registers hold the operating and setting statuses inside the device, and this information can be read (status
register read) and the protect information can be rewritten (status register write). There are 8 bits in total, and "Table 3
Status registers" gives the significance of each bit.

2-1. Status Register Read
The contents of the status registers can be read using the status register read command. This command can be executed
even during the following operations.
• Small sector erase, sector erase, chip erase
• Page program
• Status register write
"Figure 6 Status Register Read" shows the timing waveforms of status register read. Consisting only of the first bus
cycle, the status register command outputs the contents of the status registers synchronized to the falling edge of the
clock (SCK) with which the eighth bit of (05h) has been input. In terms of the output sequence, SRWP (bit 7) is the first
to be output, and each time one clock is input, all the other bits up to RDY (bit 0) are output in sequence, synchronized
to the falling clock edge. If the clock input is continued after RDY (bit 0) has been output, the data is output by
returning to the bit (SRWP) that was first output, after which the output is repeated for as long as the clock input is
continued. The data can be read by the status register read command at any time (even during a program or erase cycle).

2-2. Status Register Write
The information in status registers BP0, BP1, and SRWP can be rewritten using the status register write command.
RDY, WEN, bit 4, bit 5, and bit 6 are read-only bits and cannot be rewritten. The information in bits BP0, BP1, and
SRWP is stored in the non-volatile memory, and when it is written in these bits, the contents are retained even at powerdown. "Figure 7 Status Register Write" shows the timing waveforms of status register write, and Figure 20 shows a
status register write flowchart. Consisting of the first and second bus cycles, the status register write command initiates
the internal write operation at the rising CS edge after the data has been input following (01h). Erase and program are
performed automatically inside the device by status register write so that erasing or other processing is unnecessary
before executing the command. By the operation of this command, the information in bits BP0, BP1, and SRWP can be
rewritten. Since bits RDY (bit 0), WEN (bit 1), bit 4, bit 5, and bit 6 of the status register cannot be written, no problem
will arise if an attempt is made to set them to any value when rewriting the status register. Status register write ends can
be detected by RDY of status register read. Information in the status registers can be rewritten 1,000 times (min.). To
initiate status register write, the logic level of the WP pin must be set high and status register WEN must be set to "1".

2-3. Contents of Each Status Register
RDY (bit 0)
The RDY register is for detecting the write (program, erase and status register write) end. When it is "1", the device is
in a busy state, and when it is "0", it means that write is completed.
No.A2097-8/21
LE25U20AMB
WEN (bit 1)
The WEN register is for detecting whether the device can perform write operations. If it is set to "0", the device will not
perform the write operation even if the write command is input. If it is set to "1", the device can perform write
operations in any area that is not block-protected.
WEN can be controlled using the write enable and write disable commands. By inputting the write enable command
(06h), WEN can be set to "1"; by inputting the write disable command (04h), it can be set to "0". In the following states,
WEN is automatically set to "0" in order to protect against unintentional writing.
• At power-on
• Upon completion of small sector erase, sector erase or chip erase
• Upon completion of page program
• Upon completion of status register write
* If a write operation has not been performed inside the LE25U20AMB because, for instance, the command input for
any of the write operations (small sector erase, sector erase, chip erase, page program, or status register write) has
failed or a write operation has been performed for a protected address, WEN will retain the status established prior to
the issue of the command concerned. Furthermore, its state will not be changed by a read operation.
BP0, BP1 (bits 2, 3)
Block protect BP0 and BP1 are status register bits that can be rewritten, and the memory space to be protected can be
set depending on these bits. For the setting conditions, refer to "Table 4 Protect level setting conditions".

SRWP (bit 7)
Status register write protect SRWP is the bit for protecting the status registers, and its information can be rewritten.
When SRWP is "1" and the logic level of the WP pin is low, the status register write command is ignored, and status
registers BP0, BP1, and SRWP are protected. When the logic level of the WP pin is high, the status registers are not
protected regardless of the SRWP state. The SRWP setting conditions are shown in "Table 5 SRWP setting conditions".

3. Write Enable
Before performing any of the operations listed below, the device must be placed in the write enable state. Operation is
the same as for setting status register WEN to "1", and the state is enabled by inputting the write enable command.
"Figure 8 Write Enable" shows the timing waveforms when the write enable operation is performed. The write enable
command consists only of the first bus cycle, and it is initiated by inputting (06h).
• Small sector erase, sector erase, chip erase
• Page program
• Status register write
4. Write Disable
The write disable command sets status register WEN to "0" to prohibit unintentional writing. "Figure 9 Write Disable"
shows the timing waveforms. The write disable command consists only of the first bus cycle, and it is initiated by
inputting (04h). The write disable state (WEN "0") is exited by setting WEN to "1" using the write enable command
(06h).

5. Power-down
The power-down command sets all the commands, with the exception of the silicon ID read command and the
command to exit from power-down, to the acceptance prohibited state (power-down). "Figure 10 Power-down" shows
the timing waveforms. The power-down command consists only of the first bus cycle, and it is initiated by inputting
(B9h). However, a power-down command issued during an internal write operation will be ignored. The power-down
state is exited using the power-down exit command (power-down is exited also when one bus cycle or more of the
silicon ID read command (ABh) has been input). "Figure 11 Exiting from Power-down" shows the timing waveforms of
the power-down exit command.

6. Small Sector Erase
Small sector erase is an operation that sets the memory cell data in any small sector to "1". A small sector consists of
4Kbytes. "Figure 12 Small Sector Erase" shows the timing waveforms, and Figure 21 shows a small sector erase
flowchart. The small sector erase command consists of the first through fourth bus cycles, and it is initiated by
inputting the 24-bit addresses following (D7h/20h). Addresses A17 to A12 are valid, and Addresses A23 to A18 are
"don't care". After the command has been input, the internal erase operation starts from the rising CS edge, and it ends
automatically by the control exercised by the internal timer. Erase end can also be detected using status register RDY.

9. Page Program
Page program is an operation that programs any number of bytes from 1 to 256 bytes within the same sector page (page
addresses: A17 to A8). Before initiating page program, the data on the page concerned must be erased using small
sector erase, sector erase, or chip erase. "Figure 15 Page Program" shows the page program timing waveforms, and
Figure 22 shows a page program flowchart. After the falling CS, edge, the command (02H) is input followed by the
24-bit addresses. Addresses A17 to A0 are valid. The program data is then loaded at each rising clock edge until the
rising CS edge, and data loading is continued until the rising CS edge. If the data loaded has exceeded 256 bytes, the
256 bytes loaded last are programmed. The program data must be loaded in 1-byte increments, and the program
operation is not performed at the rising CS edge occurring at any other timing. The page program time is 2.0ms (typ.)
when 256 bytes (1 page) are programmed at one time.

10. Silicon ID Read
Silicon ID read is an operation that reads the manufacturer code and device code information. The silicon ID read
command is not accepted during writing.
Two methods are used for silicon ID reading. The first method involves inputting the 9Fh command: the setting is
completed with only the first bus cycle input, and in subsequent bus cycles the manufacturer code 62h, 2 bytes of device
ID code (Memory type, Memory capacity) and reserved code are repeatedly output in succession so long as the clock
input is continued. Refer to "Figure 16-a Silicon ID Read 1" for the waveforms. "Table 6_1 Silicon ID Read 1" lists the
silicon ID read1 codes.
The second method involves inputting the ABh command. This command consists of the first through fourth bus cycles,
and the 1 byte silicon ID can be read when 24 dummy bits are input after (ABh). Refer to "Figure 16-b Silicon ID Read
2" for the waveforms. "Table 6_2 Silicon ID Read 2" lists the silicon ID read2 code. If, after the device code has been
read, the SCK input is continued, the device code is output repeatedly.
The data is output starting with the falling clock edge of the fourth bus cycle bit 0, and silicon ID reading ends at the
rising CS edge.

11. Hold Function
Using the HOLD pin, the hold function suspends serial communication (it places it in the hold status). "Figure 17
HOLD" shows the timing waveforms. The device is placed in the hold status at the falling HOLD edge while the logic
level of SCK is low, and it exits from the hold status at the rising HOLD edge. When the logic level of SCK is high,
HOLD must not rise or fall. The hold function takes effect when the logic level of CS is low, the hold status is exited
and serial communication is reset at the rising CS edge. In the hold status, the SO output is in the high-impedance state,
and SI and SCK are "don't care".

In order to protect against unintentional writing, CS must be kept at VCC At power-on. After power-on, the supply
voltage has stabilized at 2.30V or higher, wait for 100μs (tPU_READ) before inputting the command to start a read
operation. Similarly, wait for 10ms (tPU_WRITE) after the voltage has stabilized before inputting the command to start
a write operation.

13. Hardware Data Protection
In order to protect against unintentional writing at power-on, the LE25U20AMB incorporates a power-on reset function.
The following conditions must be met in order to ensure that the power reset circuit will operate stably.
No guarantees are given for data in the event of an instantaneous power failure occurring during the writing period.

14. Software Data Protection
The LE25U20AMB eliminates the possibility of unintentional operations by not recognizing commands under the
following conditions.
• When a write command is input and the rising CS edge timing is not in a bus cycle (8 CLK units of SCK)
• When the page program data is not in 1-byte increments
• When the status register write command is input for 2 bus cycles or more
15. Decoupling Capacitor
A 0.1μF ceramic capacitor must be provided to each device and connected between VDD and VSS in order to ensure
that the device will operate stably.
