MX29LV160D T/B
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX29LV160DT/B is a 16Mbit flash memory that can be organized as 2Mbytes of 8 bits each or as 1Mwords of 16
bits each. These devices operate over a voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V typically using a 3V power supply input.
The memory array is divided into 32 equal 64 Kilo byte blocks. However, depending on the device being used as
a Top-Boot or Bottom-Boot device. The outermost one sector at the top or at the bottom are respectively the boot
blocks for this device.
The MX29LV160DT/B is offered in a 48-pin TSOP, 48-ball XFLGA/WFBGA and a 48-ball CSP(TFBGA) JEDEC
standard package. These packages are offered in leaded, as well as lead-free versions that are compliant to the
RoHS specifications. The software algorithm used for this device also adheres to the JEDEC standard for single
power supply devices. These flash parts can be programmed in system or on commercially available EPROM/
Flash programmers.
Separate OE# and CE# (Output Enable and Chip Enable) signals are provided to simplify system design. When
used with high speed processors, the 70ns read access time of this flash memory permits operation with minimal
time lost due to system timing delays.
The automatic write algorithm provided on Macronix flash memories perform an automatic erase prior to write.
The user only needs to provide a write command to the command register. The on-chip state machine automatically controls the program and erase functions including all necessary internal timings. Since erase and write
operations take much longer time than read operations, erase/write can be interrupted to perform read operations in other sectors of the device. For this, Erase Suspend operation along with Erase Resume operation are
provided. Data# polling or Toggle bits are used to indicate the end of the erase/write operation.
These devices are manufactured at the Macronix fabrication facility using the time tested and proven Macronix's
advance technology. This proprietary non-epi process provides a very high degree of latch-up protection for
stresses up to 100 milliamperes on address and data pins from -1V to 1.5xVCC.
With low power consumption and enhanced hardware and software features, this flash memory retains data reliably for at least twenty years. Erase and programming functions have been tested to meet a typical specification
of 100,000 cycles of operation.

MX29LV160D T/B
BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION
The block diagram on Page 10 illustrates a simplified architecture of MX29LV160D T/B. Each block in the block
diagram represents one or more circuit modules in the real chip used to access, erase, program, and read the
memory array..
The "CONTROL INPUT LOGIC" block receives input pins CE#, OE#, WE#, RESET#, BYTE# and WP#/ACC.
It creates internal timing control signals according to the input pins and outputs to the "ADDRESS LATCH AND
BUFFER" to latch the external address pins A0-AM(A19). The internal addresses are output from this block to the
main array and decoders composed of "X-DECODER", "Y-DECODER", "Y-PASS GATE", and "FLASH ARRAY".
The X-DECODER decodes the word-lines of the flash array, while the Y-DECODER decodes the bit-lines of the
flash array. The bit lines are electrically connected to the "SENSE AMPLIFIER" and "PGM DATA HV" selectively
through the y-pass gates. Sense amplifiers are used to read out the contents of the flash memory, while the
"PGM DATA HV" block is used to selectively deliver high power to bit-lines during programming. The "I/O
BUFFER" controls the input and output on the Q0-Q15/A-1 pads. During read operation, the I/O buffer receives
data from sense amplifiers and drives the output pads accordingly. In the last cycle of program command, the I/O
buffer transmits the data on Q0-Q15/A-1 to "PROGRAM DATA LATCH", which controls the high power drivers in
"PGM DATA HV" to selectively program the bits in a word or byte according to the user input pattern.
The "PROGRAM/ERASE HIGH VOLTAGE" block comprises the circuits to generate and deliver the necessary
high voltage to the X-DECODER flash array, and "PGM DATA HV" block. The logic control module comprises of
the "WRITE STATE MACHINE(WSM)", "STATE REGISTER", "COMMAND DATA DECODER", and "COMMAND
DATA LATCH". When the user issues a command by toggling WE#, the command on Q0-A15/A-1 is latched
in the command data latch and is decoded by the command data decoder. The state register receives the
command and records the current state of the device. The WSM implements the internal algorithms for program
or erase according to the current command state by controlling each block in the block diagram.

MX29LV160D T/B
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION DESCRIPTION
WRITE COMMANDS/COMMAND SEQUENCES
To write a command to the device, system must drive WE# and CE# to Vil, and OE# to Vih. In a command cycle,
all address are latched at the later falling edge of CE# and WE#, and all data are latched at the earlier rising
edge of CE# and WE#.
Figure 1 illustrates the AC timing waveform of a write command, and Table 3 defines all the valid command sets
of the device. System is not allowed to write invalid commands not defined in this datasheet. Writing an invalid
command will bring the device to an undefined state.
REQUIREMENTS FOR READING ARRAY DATA
Read array action is to read the data stored in the array. While the memory device is in powered up or has been
reset, it will automatically enter the status of read array. If the microprocessor wants to read the data stored in
array, it has to drive CE# (device enable control pin) and OE# (Output control pin) as Vil, and input the address
of the data to be read into address pin at the same time. After a period of read cycle (Tce or Taa), the data being
read out will be displayed on output pin for microprocessor to access. If CE# or OE# is Vih, the output will be in
tri-state, and there will be no data displayed on output pin at all.
After the memory device completes embedded operation (automatic Erase or Program), it will automatically return to the status of read array, and the device can read the data in any address in the array. In the process of
erasing, if the device receives the Erase suspend command, erase operation will be stopped temporarily after a
period of time no more than Tready1 and the device will return to the status of read array. At this time, the device
can read the data stored in any address except the sector being erased in the array. In the status of erase suspend, if user wants to read the data in the sectors being erased, the device will output status data onto the output. Similarly, if program command is issued after erase suspend, after program operation is completed, system
can still read array data in any address except the sectors to be erased
The device needs to issue reset command to enable read array operation again in order to arbitrarily read the
data in the array in the following two situations:
1. In program or erase operation, the programming or erasing failure causes Q5 to go high.
2. The device is in auto select mode or CFI mode.
In the two situations above, if reset command is not issued, the device is not in read array mode and system
must issue reset command before reading array data.

MX29LV160D T/B
RESET# OPERATION
Driving RESET# pin low for a period more than Trp will reset the device back to read mode. If the device is in
program or erase operation, the reset operation will take at most a period of Tready1 for the device to return to
read array mode. Before the device returns to read array mode, the RY/BY# pin remains low (busy status).
When RESET# pin is held at GND±0.3V, the device consumes standby current(Isb).However, device draws larger current if RESET# pin is held at Vil but not within GND±0.3V.
It is recommended that the system to tie its reset signal to RESET# pin of flash memory, so that the flash memory will be reset during system reset and allows system to read boot code from flash memory.
SECTOR PROTECT OPERATION
When a sector is protected, program or erase operation will be disabled on that protected sector. MX29LV160D
T/B provides two methods for sector protection.
Once the sector is protected, the sector remains protected until next chip unprotect, or is temporarily unprotected
by asserting RESET# pin at Vhv. Refer to temporary sector unprotect operation for further details.
The first method is by applying Vhv on RESET# pin. Refer to Figure 12 for timing diagram and Figure 13 for the
algorithm for this method.
The other method is asserting Vhv on A9 and OE# pins, with A6 and CE# at Vil. The protection operation begins
at the falling edge of WE# and terminates at the rising edge. Contact Macronix for details.
CHIP UNPROTECT OPERATION
MX29LV160D T/B provides two methods for chip unprotect. The chip unprotect operation unprotects all sectors
within the device. It is recommended to protect all sectors before activating chip unprotect mode. All sectors are
unprotected when shipped from the factory.
The first method is by applying Vhv on RESET# pin. Refer to Figure 12 for timing diagram and Figure 14 for algorithm of the operation.
The other method is asserting Vhv on A9 and OE# pins, with A6 at Vih and CE# at Vil. The unprotect operation
begins at the falling edge of WE# and terminates at the rising edge. Contact Macronix for details.
HARDWARE WRITE PROTECT
By driving the WP#/ACC pin LOW, the outermost one boot sector is protected from all erase/program operations.
If WP#/ACC is held HIGH (Vih to VCC), the one outermost sector revert to its previously protected/unprotected
status.
ACCELERATED PROGRAMMING OPERATION
By applying high voltage (Vhv) to the WP#/ACC pin, the device will enter the Accelerated Programming mode.
This mode permits the system to skip the normal command unlock sequences and program byte/word locations
directly. During accelerated programming, the current drawn from the WP#/ACC pin is no more than ICP1.
P/N:PM1315
REV. 1.2, DEC. 22, 2011
17
MX29LV160D T/B
TEMPORARY SECTOR UNPROTECT OPERATION
System can apply RESET# pin at Vhv to place the device in temporary unprotect mode. In this mode, previously
protected sectors can be programmed or erased just as it is unprotected. The devices returns to normal operation once Vhv is removed from RESET# pin and previously protected sectors are again protected.
AUTOMATIC SELECT OPERATION
When the device is in Read array mode, erase-suspended read array mode or CFI mode, user can issue read
silicon ID command to enter read silicon ID mode. After entering read silicon ID mode, user can query several
silicon IDs continuously and does not need to issue read silicon ID mode again. When A0 is Low, device will output Macronix Manufacture ID C2. When A0 is high, device will output Device ID. In read silicon ID mode, issuing
reset command will reset device back to read array mode or erase-suspended read array mode.
Another way to enter read silicon ID is to apply high voltage on A9 pin with CE#, OE#, A6 and A1 at Vil. While
the high voltage of A9 pin is discharged, device will automatically leave read silicon ID mode and go back to read
array mode or erase-suspended read array mode. When A0 is Low, device will output Macronix Manufacture ID
C2. When A0 is high, device will output Device ID.
VERIFY SECTOR PROTECT STATUS OPERATION
MX29LV160D T/B provides hardware sector protection against Program and Erase operation for protected sectors. The sector protect status can be read through Sector Protect Verify command. This method requires Vhv on
A9 pin, Vih on WE# and A1 pins, Vil on CE#, OE#, A6 and A0 pins, and sector address on A12 to Am pins. If the
read out data is 01h, the designated sector is protected. Oppositely, if the read out data is 00h, the designated
sector is not protected.
DATA PROTECTION
To avoid accidental erasure or programming of the device, the device is automatically reset to read array mode
during power up. Besides, only after successful completion of the specified command sets will the device begin
its erase or program operation.
Other features to protect the data from accidental alternation are described as followed.
LOW VCC WRITE INHIBIT
The device refuses to accept any write command when Vcc is less than Vlko. This prevents data from spuriously
altered. The device automatically resets itself when Vcc is lower than Vlko and write cycles are ignored until Vcc
is greater than Vlko. System must provide proper signals on control pins after Vcc is larger than Vlko to avoid unintentional program or erase operation
WRITE PULSE "GLITCH" PROTECTION
CE#, WE#, OE# pulses shorter than 5ns are treated as glitches and will not be regarded as an effective write
cycle.
P/N:PM1315
REV. 1.2, DEC. 22, 2011
18
MX29LV160D T/B
LOGICAL INHIBIT
A valid write cycle requires both CE# and WE# at Vil with OE# at Vih. Write cycle is ignored when either CE# at
Vih, WE# a Vih, or OE# at Vil.
POWER-UP SEQUENCE
Upon power up, MX29LV160D T/B is placed in read array mode. Furthermore, program or erase operation will
begin only after successful completion of specified command sequences.
POWER-UP WRITE INHIBIT
When WE#, CE# is held at Vil and OE# is held at Vih during power up, the device ignores the first command on
the rising edge of WE#.
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
A 0.1uF capacitor should be connected between the Vcc and GND to reduce the noise effect.

MX29LV160D T/B
COMMAND OPERATIONS (cont'd)
AUTOMATIC PROGRAMMING OF THE MEMORY ARRAY
The MX29LV160D T/B provides the user the ability to program the memory array in Byte mode or Word mode. As
long as the users enters the correct cycle defined in the Table 3 (including 2 unlock cycles and the A0h program
command), any byte or word data provided on the data lines by the system will automatically be programmed
into the array at the specified location.
After the program command sequence has been executed, the internal write state machine (WSM) automatically
executes the algorithms and timings necessary for programming and verification, which includes generating suitable program pulses, checking cell threshold voltage margins, and repeating the program pulse if any cells do
not pass verification or have low margins. The internal controller protects cells that do pass verification and margin tests from being over-programmed by inhibiting further program pulses to these passing cells as weaker cells
continue to be programmed.
With the internal WSM automatically controlling the programming process, the user only needs to enter the program command and data once.
Programming will only change the bit status from "1" to "0". It is not possible to change the bit status from "0" to
"1" by programming. This can only be done by an erase operation. Furthermore, the internal write verification
only checks and detects errors in cases where a "1" is not successfully programmed to "0".
Any commands written to the device during programming will be ignored except hardware reset, which will terminate the program operation after a period of time no more than Tready1. When the embedded program algorithm
is complete or the program operation is terminated by a hardware reset, the device will return to Read mode.
After the embedded program operation has begun, the user can check for completion by reading the following
bits in the status register:
Status

*1: When an attempt is made to program a protected sector, the program operation will abort thus preventing
any data changes in the protected sector. Q7 will output complement data and Q6 will toggle briefly (1us or less)
before aborting and returning the device to Read mode.
*2: RY/BY# is an open drain output pin and should be connected to VCC through a high value pull-up resistor.
*3: The status "in progress" means both program and erase-suspended program mode.
ERASING THE MEMORY ARRAY
There are two types of erase operations performed on the memory array -- Sector Erase and Chip Erase. In the
Sector Erase operation, one or more selected sectors may be erased simultaneously. In the Chip Erase operation, the complete memory array is erased except for any protected sectors.
P/N:PM1315
REV. 1.2, DEC. 22, 2011

MX29LV160D T/B
COMMAND OPERATIONS (cont'd)
SECTOR ERASE
The sector erase operation is used to clear data within a sector by returning all of its memory locations to the
"1" state. It requires six command cycles to initiate the erase operation. The first two cycles are "unlock cycles",
the third is a configuration cycle, the fourth and fifth are also "unlock cycles", and the sixth cycle is the Sector
Erase command. After the sector erase command sequence has been issued, an internal 50us time-out counter
is started. Until this counter reaches zero, additional sector addresses and Sector Erase commands may be issued thus allowing multiple sectors to be selected and erased simultaneously. After the 50us time-out counter
has expired, no new commands will be accepted and the embedded sector erase operation will begin. Note that
the 50us timer-out counter is restarted after every erase command sequence. If the user enters any command
other than Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the time-out period, the erase operation will abort and the device will return to Read mode.
After the embedded sector erase operation begins, all commands except Erase Suspend will be ignored. The
only way to interrupt the operation is with an Erase Suspend command or with a hardware reset. The hardware
reset will completely abort the operation and return the device to Read mode.
The system can determine the status of the embedded sector erase operation by the following methods:
Status

Note :
*1.The Q3 status bit is the time-out indicator. When Q3=0, the time-out counter has not yet reached zero and
a new Sector Erase command may be issued to specify the address of another sector to be erased. When
Q3=1, the time-out counter has expired and the Sector Erase operation has already begun. Erase Suspend
is the only valid command that may be issued once the embedded erase operation is underway.
*2. RY/BY# is an open drain output pin and should be connected to VCC through a high value pull-up resistor.
*3. When an attempt is made to erase only protected sector(s), the program operation will abort thus preventing
any data changes in the protected sector(s). Q7 will output its complement data and Q6 will toggle briefly (100us
or less) before aborting and returning the device to Read mode. If unprotected sectors are also specified,
however, they will be erased normally and the protected sector(s) will remain unchanged.
*4. Q2 is a localized indicator showing a specified sector is undergoing erase operation or not. Q2 toggles when
user reads at addresses where the sectors are actively being erased (in erase mode) or to be erased (in erase
suspend mode). When a sector has been completely erased, Q2 stops toggling at the sector even when the
device is still in erase operation for remaining selected sectors. At that circumstance, Q2 will still toggle when
device is read at any other sector that remains to be erased.

COMMAND OPERATIONS (cont'd)
CHIP ERASE
The Chip Erase operation is used erase all the data within the memory array. All memory cells containing a "0"
will be returned to the erased state of "1". This operation requires 6 write cycles to initiate the action. The first
two cycles are "unlock" cycles, the third is a configuration cycle, the fourth and fifth are also "unlock" cycles, and
the sixth cycle initiates the chip erase operation.
During the chip erase operation, no other software commands will be accepted, but if a hardware reset is received or the working voltage is too low, that chip erase will be terminated. After Chip Erase, the chip will automatically return to Read mode.
The system can determine the status of the embedded chip erase operation by the following methods:

*1: RY/BY# is an open drain output pin and should be connected to VCC through a high value pull-up resistor.
SECTOR ERASE SUSPEND
After beginning a sector erase operation, Erase Suspend is the only valid command that may be issued. If system issues an Erase Suspend command during the 50us time-out period following a Sector Erase command, the
time-out period will terminate immediately and the device will enter Erase-Suspended Read mode. If the system
issues an Erase Suspend command after the sector erase operation has already begun, the device will not enter
Erase-Suspended Read mode until Tready1 time has elapsed. The system can determine if the device has entered the Erase-Suspended Read mode through Q6, Q7, and RY/BY#.
After the device has entered Erase-Suspended Read mode, the system can read or program any sector(s) except those being erased by the suspended erase operation. Reading any sector being erased or programmed
will return the contents of the status register. Whenever a suspend command is issued, user must issue a resume command and check Q6 toggle bit status, before issue another erase command. The system can use the
status register bits shown in the following table to determine the current state of the device:
Status
Erase suspend read in erase suspended sector
Erase suspend read in non-erase suspended sector
Erase suspend program in non-erase suspended sector

COMMAND OPERATIONS (cont'd)
SECTOR ERASE RESUME
The sector Erase Resume command is valid only when the device is in Erase-Suspended Read mode. After
erase resumes, the user can issue another Ease Suspend command, but there should be a 4ms interval between Ease Resume and the next Erase Suspend command. If the user enters an infinite suspend-resume loop,
or suspend-resume exceeds 1024 times, erase times will increase dramatically.
AUTOMATIC SELECT OPERATIONS
When the device is in Read mode, Erase-Suspended Read mode, or CFI mode, the user can issue the Automatic Select command shown in Table 3 (two unlock cycles followed by the Automatic Select command 90h) to
enter Automatic Select mode. After entering Automatic Select mode, the user can query the Manufacturer ID,
Device ID, Security Sector locked status, or Sector-Group protected status multiple times without issuing a new
Automatic Select command.
While In Automatic Select mode, issuing a Reset command (F0h) will return the device to Read mode (or EaseSuspended Read mode if Erase-Suspend was active).
Another way to enter Automatic Select mode is to use one of the bus operations shown in Table 2-2. BUS OPERATION. After the high voltage (Vhv) is removed from the A9 pin, the device will automatically return to Read
mode or Erase-Suspended Read mode.
AUTOMATIC SELECT COMMAND SEQUENCE
Automatic Select mode is used to access the manufacturer ID, device ID and to verify whether or not a sector is
protected. The automatic select mode has four command cycles. The first two are unlock cycles, and followed by
a specific command. The fourth cycle is a normal read cycle, and user can read at any address any number of
times without entering another command sequence. The reset command is necessary to exit the Automatic Select mode and back to read array. The following table shows the identification code with corresponding address.

COMMAND OPERATIONS (cont'd)
READ MANUFACTURER ID OR DEVICE ID
The Manufacturer ID (identification) is a unique hexadecimal number assigned to each manufacturer by the JEDEC committee. Each company has its own manufacturer ID, which is different from the ID of all other companies. The number assigned to Macronix is C2h.
The Device ID is a unique hexadecimal number assigned by the manufacturer for each one of the flash devices
made by that manufacturer.
The above two ID types are stored in a 16-bit register on the flash device -- eight bits for each ID. This register is
normally read by the user or by the programming machine to identify the manufacturer and the specific device.
After entering Automatic Select mode, performing a read operation with A1 & A0 held LOW will cause the device
to output the Manufacturer ID on the Data I/O (Q7 to Q0) pins. Performing a read operation with A1 LOW and A0
HIGH will cause the device to output the Device ID.
VERIFY SECTOR GROUP PROTECTION
After entering Automatic Select mode, performing a read operation with A1 held HIGH and A0 held LOW and the
address of the sector to be checked applied to A19 to A12, data bit Q0 will indicate the protected status of the
addressed sector. If Q0 is HIGH, the sector is protected. Conversely, if Q0 is LOW, the sector is unprotected.
RESET
In the following situations, executing reset command will reset device back to read array mode:
• Among erase command sequence (before the full command set is completed)
• Sector erase time-out period
• Erase fail (while Q5 is high)
• Among program command sequence (before the full command set is completed, erase-suspended program
included)
• Program fail (while Q5 is high, and erase-suspended program fail is included)
• Read silicon ID mode
• Sector protect verify
• CFI mode
While device is at the status of program fail or erase fail (Q5 is high), user must issue reset command to reset
device back to read array mode. While the device is in read silicon ID mode, sector protect verify or CFI mode,
user must issue reset command to reset device back to read array mode.
When the device is in the progress of programming (not program fail) or erasing (not erase fail), device will ignore reset command.

COMMON FLASH MEMORY INTERFACE (CFI) MODE
QUERY COMMAND AND COMMON FLASH INTERFACE (CFI) MODE
MX29LV160D T/B features CFI mode. Host system can retrieve the operating characteristics, structure and
vendor-specified information such as identifying information, memory size, byte/word configuration, operating
voltages and timing information of this device by CFI mode. If the system writes the CFI Query command "98h",
to address "55h"/"AAh" (depending on Word/Byte mode), the device will enter the CFI Query Mode, any time the
device is ready to read array data. The system can read CFI information at the addresses given in Table 4.
Once user enters CFI query mode, user can not issue any other commands except reset command. The reset
command is required to exit CFI mode and go back to the mode before entering CFI. The system can write the
CFI Query command only when the device is in read mode, erase suspend, standby mode or automatic select
mode.
