ETOX™ V Nonvolatile Flash
Technology
Intel’s byte-wide SmartVoltage FlashFile™ memory family renders a variety of density offerings in the same
package. The 4-, 8-, and 16-Mbit byte-wide FlashFile memories provide high-density, low-cost, nonvolatile,
read/write storage solutions for a wide range of applications. Their symmetrically-blocked architecture, flexible
voltage, and extended cycling provide highly flexible components suitable for resident flash arrays, SIMMs,
and memory cards. Enhanced suspend capabilities provide an ideal solution for code or data storage
applications. For secure code storage applications, such as networking, where code is either directly
executed out of flash or downloaded to DRAM, the 4-, 8-, and 16-Mbit FlashFile memories offer three levels
of protection: absolute protection with VPP at GND, selective hardware block locking, or flexible software
block locking. These alternatives give designers ultimate control of their code security needs.
This family of products is manufactured on Intel’s 0.4 µm ETOX™ V process technology. They come in
industry-standard packages: the 40-lead TSOP, ideal for board-constrained applications, and the rugged
44-lead PSOP. Based on the 28F008SA architecture, the byte-wide SmartVoltage FlashFile memory family
enables quick and easy upgrades for designs that demand state-of-the-art technology.

INTRODUCTION
This datasheet contains 4-, 8-, and 16-Mbit
SmartVoltage FlashFile memory specifications.
Section 1 provides a flash memory overview.
Sections 2, 3, 4, and 5 describe the memory
organization and functionality. Section 6 covers
electrical specifications for commercial and
extended temperature product offerings. The bytewide SmartVoltage FlashFile memory family
documentation also includes application notes and
design tools which are referenced in Appendix B.
1.1
New Features
The byte-wide SmartVoltage FlashFile memory
family maintains backwards-compatibility with
Intel’s
28F008SA
and
28F008SA-L.
Key
enhancements include:
•
SmartVoltage Technology
•
Enhanced Suspend Capabilities
•
In-System Block Locking
They share a compatible status register, software
commands, and pinouts. These similarities enable
a clean upgrade from the 28F008SA and
28F008SA-L to byte-wide SmartVoltage FlashFile
products. When upgrading, it is important to note
the following differences:
•
•
•
Because of new feature and density options,
the devices have different device identifier
codes. This allows for software optimization.
VPPLK has been lowered from 6.5V to 1.5V to
support low VPP voltages during block erase,
program, and lock-bit configuration operations.
Designs that switch VPP off during read
operations should transition VPP to GND.
To take advantage of SmartVoltage technology, allow VPP connection to 3.3V or 5V.
For more details see application note AP-625,
28F008SC Compatibility with 28F008SA (order
number 292180).

1.2
Product Overview
The byte-wide SmartVoltage FlashFile memory
family provides density upgrades with pinout
compatibility for the 4-, 8-, and 16-Mbit densities.
The 28F004SC, 28F008SC, and 28F016SC are
high-performance
memories
arranged
as
512 Kbyte, 1 Mbyte, and 2 Mbyte of 8 bits. This
data is grouped in eight, sixteen, and thirty-two
64-Kbyte blocks which are individually erasable,
lockable, and unlockable in-system. Figure 4
illustrates the memory organization.
SmartVoltage technology enables fast factory
programming and low-power designs. These
components support read operations at 2.7V (readonly), 3.3V, and 5V VCC and block erase and
program operations at 3.3V, 5V, and 12V VPP. The
12V VPP option renders the fastest program and
erase performance which will increase your factory
throughput. With the 3.3V and 5V VPP option, VCC
and VPP can be tied together for a simple and
voltage flexible design. This voltage flexibility is key
for removable media that need to operate in a 3V to
5V system. In addition, the dedicated VPP pin gives
complete data protection when VPP ≤ VPPLK.

NOTE:

operation with VCC , 3.0V are not supported.
Internal VCC and VPP detection circuitry
automatically configures the device for optimum
performance.
A Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the
interface between the system processor and
internal operation of the device. A valid command
sequence written to the CUI initiates device
automation. An internal Write State Machine (WSM)
automatically executes the algorithms and timings
necessary for block erase, program, and lock-bit
configuration operations.
5
BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
A block erase operation erases one of the device’s
64-Kbyte blocks typically within 1 second
(5V VCC, 12V VPP), independent of other blocks.
Each block can be independently erased 100,000
times (1.6 million block erases per device). A block
erase suspend operation allows system software to
suspend block erase to read data from or write data
to any other block.
Data is programmed in byte increments typically
within 6 µs (5V VCC, 12V VPP). A program suspend
operation permits system software to read data or
execute code from any other flash memory array
location.
To protect programmed data, each block can be
locked. This block locking mechanism uses a
combination of bits, block lock-bits and a master
lock-bit, to lock and unlock individual blocks. The
block lock-bits gate block erase and program
operations, while the master lock-bit gates block
lock-bit configuration operations. Lock-bit configuration operations (Set Block Lock-Bit, Set Master
Lock-Bit, and Clear Block Lock-Bits commands) set
and clear lock-bits.
The status register and RY/BY# output indicate
whether or not the device is busy executing or
ready for a new command. Polling the status
register, system software retrieves WSM feedback.
The RY/BY# output gives an additional indicator of
WSM activity by providing a hardware status signal.
Like the status register, RY/BY#-low indicates that
the WSM is performing a block erase, program, or
lock-bit configuration operation. RY/BY#-high
indicates that the WSM is ready for a new
command, block erase is suspended (and program
is inactive), program is suspended, or the device is
in deep power-down mode.
The Automatic Power Savings (APS) feature
substantially reduces active current when the
device is in static mode (addresses not switching).
In APS mode, the typical ICCR current is 1 mA at 5V
VCC.
When CE# and RP# pins are at VCC, the
component enters a CMOS standby mode. Driving
RP# to GND enables a deep power-down mode
which significantly reduces power consumption,
provides write protection, resets the device, and
clears the status register. A reset time (tPHQV) is
required from RP# switching high until outputs are
valid. Likewise, the device has a wake time (tPHEL)
from RP#-high until writes to the CUI are
recognized.

Pinout and Pin Description
The family of devices is available in 40-lead TSOP
(Thin Small Outline Package, 1.2 mm thick) and
44-lead PSOP (Plastic Small Outline Package).

CHIP ENABLE: Activates the device’s control logic, input buffers, decoders, and
sense amplifiers. CE#-high deselects the device and reduces power consumption to
standby levels.
RP#
INPUT
RESET/DEEP POWER-DOWN: When driven low, RP# inhibits write operations
which provides data protection during power transitions, puts the device in deep
power-down mode, and resets internal automation. RP#-high enables normal
operation. Exit from deep power-down sets the device to read array mode.
RP# at VHH enables setting of the master lock-bit and enables configuration of block
lock-bits when the master lock-bit is set. RP# = V HH overrides block lock-bits,
thereby enabling block erase and program operations to locked memory blocks.
Block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration with V IH < RP# < VHH produce
spurious results and should not be attempted.

BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The byte-wide SmartVoltage FlashFile memories
include an on-chip WSM to manage block erase,
program, and lock-bit configuration functions. It
allows for: 100% TTL-level control inputs, fixed
power supplies during block erasure, program, and
lock-bit configuration, and minimal processor
overhead with RAM-like interface timings.
After initial device power-up or return from deep
power-down mode (see Bus Operations), the
device defaults to read array mode. Manipulation of
external memory control pins allow array read,
standby, and output disable operations.
Status register and identifier codes can be
accessed through the CUI independent of the VPP
voltage. High voltage on VPP enables successful
block erasure, program, and lock-bit configuration.
All functions associated with altering memory
contents—block
erase,
program,
lock-bit
configuration, status, and identifier codes—are
accessed via the CUI and verified through the
status register.
Commands are written using standard microprocessor write timings. The CUI contents serve as
input to the WSM that controls block erase,
program, and lock-bit configuration operations. The
internal algorithms are regulated by the WSM,
including pulse repetition, internal verification, and
margining of data. Addresses and data are
internally latched during write cycles. Writing the
appropriate command outputs array data, accesses
the identifier codes, or outputs status register data.
Interface software that initiates and polls progress
of block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration
can be stored in any block. This code is copied to
and executed from system RAM during flash
memory updates. After successful completion,
reads are again possible via the Read Array
command. Block erase suspend allows system
software to suspend a block erase to read or write
data from any other block. Program suspend allows
system software to suspend a program to read data
from any other flash memory array location.

BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
2.1
Data Protection
Depending on the application, the system designer
may choose to make the VPP power supply
switchable (available only when memory block
erases, programs, or lock-bit configurations are
required) or hardwired to VPPH1/2/3. The device
accommodates either design practice and
encourages optimization of the processor-memory
interface.
When VPP ≤ VPPLK, memory contents cannot be
altered. When high voltage is applied to VPP, the
two-step block erase, program, or lock-bit
configuration command sequences provides protection from unwanted operations. All write
functions are disabled when VCC voltage is below
the write lockout voltage VLKO or when RP# is at
VIL. The device’s block locking capability provides
additional protection from inadvertent code or data
alteration by gating erase and program operations.
3.2
Output Disable
E
With OE# at a logic-high level (VIH), the device
outputs are disabled. Output pins DQ0–DQ7 are
placed in a high-impedance state.
3.3
Standby
CE# at a logic-high level (VIH) places the device in
standby mode which substantially reduces device
power consumption. DQ0–DQ7 outputs are placed
in a high-impedance state independent of OE#. If
deselected during block erase, program, or
lock-bit configuration, the device continues
functioning and consuming active power until the
operation completes.
3.4
Deep Power-Down
RP# at VIL initiates the deep power-down mode.
3.0
BUS OPERATION
The local CPU reads and writes flash memory
in-system. All bus cycles to or from the flash
memory conform to standard microprocessor bus
cycles.
3.1
Read
Block information, identifier codes, or status register
can be read independent of the VPP voltage. RP#
can be at either VIH or VHH.
The first task is to write the appropriate read-mode
command (Read Array, Read Identifier Codes, or
Read Status Register) to the CUI. Upon initial
device power-up or after exit from deep powerdown mode, the device automatically resets to read
array mode. Four control pins dictate the data flow
in and out of the component: CE#, OE#, WE#, and
RP#. CE# and OE# must be driven active to obtain
data at the outputs. CE# is the device selection
control, and when active enables the selected
memory device. OE# is the data output (DQ0–DQ7)
control and when active drives the selected
memory data onto the I/O bus. WE# must be at VIH
and RP# must be at VIH or VHH. Figure 16
illustrates a read cycle.
10
In read mode, RP#-low deselects the memory,
places output drivers in a high-impedance state,
and turns off all internal circuits. RP# must be held
low for time tPLPH. Time tPHQV is required after
return from power-down until initial memory access
outputs are valid. After this wake-up interval,
normal operation is restored. The CUI resets to
read array mode, and the status register is set to
80H.
During block erase, program, or lock-bit
configuration, RP#-low will abort the operation.
RY/BY# remains low until the reset operation is
complete. Memory contents being altered are no
longer valid; the data may be partially erased or
written. Time tPHWL is required after RP# goes to
logic-high (VIH) before another command can be
written.
As with any automated device, it is important to
assert RP# during system reset. When the system
comes out of reset, it expects to read from the flash
memory. Automated flash memories provide status
information when accessed during block erase,
program, or lock-bit configuration modes. If a CPU
reset occurs with no flash memory reset, proper
CPU initialization may not occur because the flash
memory may be providing status information
instead of array data. Intel’s flash memories allow
proper CPU initialization following a system reset
through the use of the RP# input. In this application,
RP# is controlled by the same RESET# signal that
resets the system CPU.

Read Array Command
4.3
Upon initial device power-up and after exit from
deep power-down mode, the device defaults to read
array mode. This operation is also initiated by
writing the Read Array command. The device
remains enabled for reads until another command
is written. Once the internal WSM has started a
block erase, program or lock-bit configuration, the
device will not recognize the Read Array command
until the WSM completes its operation unless the
WSM is suspended via an Erase Suspend or

Read Status Register
Command
The status register may be read to determine when
a block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration is
complete and whether the operation completed
successfully. It may be read at any time by writing
the Read Status Register command. After writing
this command, all subsequent read operations
output data from the status register until another
valid command is written. The status register
contents are latched on the falling edge of OE# or
CE#, whichever occurs first. OE# or CE# must
toggle to VIH to update the status register latch. The
Read Status Register command functions
independently of the VPP voltage. RP# can be VIH
or VHH.
4.4
The identifier code operation is initiated by writing
the Read Identifier Codes command. Following the
command write, read cycles from addresses shown
in Figure 5 retrieve the manufacturer, device, block
lock configuration and master lock configuration
codes (see Table 5 for identifier code values). To
terminate the operation, write another valid
command. Like the Read Array command, the
Read Identifier Codes command functions
independently of the VPP voltage and RP# can be
VIH or VHH. Following the Read Identifier Codes
command, the subsequent information can be read.
E
Clear Status Register
Command
Status register bits SR.5, SR.4, SR.3, and SR.1 are
set to “1”s by the WSM and can only be reset by
the Clear Status Register command. These bits
indicate various failure conditions (see Table 7). By
allowing system software to reset these bits,
several operations (such as cumulatively erasing or
locking multiple blocks or writing several bytes in
sequence) may be performed. The status register
may be polled to determine if an error occurred
during the sequence.
To clear the status register, the Clear Status
Register command (50H) is written. It functions
independently of the applied VPP voltage. RP# can
be VIH or VHH. This command is not functional
during block erase or program suspend modes.
4.5
Block Erase Command
Erase is executed one block at a time and initiated
by a two-cycle command. A block erase setup is
written first, followed by a block erase confirm. This
command sequence requires appropriate sequencing and an address within the block to be
erased (erase changes all block data to FFH).
Block preconditioning, erase, and verify are handled
internally by the WSM (invisible to the system).
After the two-cycle block erase sequence is written,
the device automatically outputs status register
data when read (see Figure 6). The CPU can detect
block erase completion by analyzing the RY/BY#
pin or status register bit SR.7.
PRODUCT PREVIEW
E
BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
When the block erase is complete, status register
bit SR.5 should be checked. If a block erase error is
detected, the status register should be cleared
before system software attempts corrective actions.
The CUI remains in read status register mode until
a new command is issued.
This two-step command sequence of set-up
followed by execution ensures that block contents
are not accidentally erased. An invalid Block Erase
command sequence will result in both status
register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.” Also,
reliable block erasure can only occur when
VCC = VCC2/3 and VPP = VPPH1/2/3. In the absence of
this high voltage, block contents are protected
against erasure. If block erase is attempted while
VPP ≤ VPPLK, SR.3 and SR.5 will be set to “1.”
Successful block erase requires that the
corresponding block lock-bit be cleared or, if set,
that RP# = VHH. If block erase is attempted when
the corresponding block lock-bit is set and
RP# = VIH, the block erase will fail, and SR.1 and
SR.5 will be set to “1.” Block erase operations with
VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious results and
should not be attempted.
4.6
Program Command
Program is executed by a two-cycle command
sequence. Program setup (standard 40H or
alternate 10H) is written, followed by a second write
that specifies the address and data (latched on the
rising edge of WE#). The WSM then takes over,
controlling the program and write verify algorithms
internally. After the program sequence is written,
the device automatically outputs status register
data when read (see Figure 7). The CPU can detect
the completion of the program event by analyzing
the RY/BY# pin or status register bit SR.7.
When program is complete, status register bit SR.4
should be checked. If program error is detected, the
status register should be cleared. The internal WSM
verify only detects errors for “1”s that do not
successfully write to “0”s. The CUI remains in read
status register mode until it receives another
command.
Reliable programs only occurs when VCC = VCC2/3
and VPP = VPPH1/2/3. In the absence of this high
voltage, memory contents are protected against
programs. If program is attempted while
VPP ≤ VPPLK, the operation will fail, and status
register bits SR.3 and SR.5 will be set to “1.”
PRODUCT PREVIEW
Successful program also requires that the
corresponding block lock-bit be cleared or, if set,
that RP# = VHH. If program is attempted when the
corresponding block lock-bit is set and RP# = VIH,
program will fail, and SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to
“1.” Program operations with VIH < RP# < VHH
produce spurious results and should not be
attempted.
4.7
Block Erase Suspend
Command
The Block Erase Suspend command allows
block-erase interruption to read or write data in
another block of memory. Once the block erase
process starts, writing the Block Erase Suspend
command requests that the WSM suspend the
block erase sequence at a predetermined point in
the algorithm. The device outputs status register
data when read after the Block Erase Suspend
command is written. Polling status register bits
SR.7 and SR.6 can determine when the block erase
operation has been suspended (both will be set to
“1”). RY/BY# will also transition to VOH.
Specification tWHRH2 defines the block erase
suspend latency.
At this point, a Read Array command can be written
to read data from blocks other than that which is
suspended. A Program command sequence can
also be issued during erase suspend to program
data in other blocks. Using the Program Suspend
command (see Section 4.8), a program operation
can also be suspended. During a program operation
with block erase suspended, status register bit
SR.7 will return to “0” and the RY/BY# output will
transition to VOL. However, SR.6 will remain “1” to
indicate block erase suspend status.
The only other valid commands while block erase is
suspended are Read Status Register and Block
Erase Resume. After a Block Erase Resume
command is written to the flash memory, the WSM
will continue the block erase process. Status
register bits SR.6 and SR.7 will automatically clear
and RY/BY# will return to VOL. After the Erase
Resume command is written, the device
automatically outputs status register data when
read (see Figure 8). VPP must remain at VPPH1/2/3
(the same VPP level used for block erase) while
block erase is suspended. RP# must also remain at
VIH or VHH (the same RP# level used for block
erase). Block erase cannot resume until program
operations initiated during block erase suspend
have completed.
15
BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
4.8
Program Suspend Command
The Program Suspend command allows program
interruption to read data in other flash memory
locations. Once the program process starts, writing
the Program Suspend command requests that the
WSM suspend the program sequence at a
predetermined point in the algorithm. The device
continues to output status register data when read
after the Program Suspend command is written.
Polling status register bits SR.7 and SR.2 can
determine when the program operation has been
suspended (both will be set to “1”). RY/BY# will also
transition to VOH. Specification tWHRH1 defines the
program suspend latency.
At this point, a Read Array command can be written
to read data from locations other than that which is
suspended. The only other valid commands while
program is suspended are Read Status Register
and Program Resume. After Program Resume
command is written to the flash memory, the WSM
will continue the program process. Status register
bits SR.2 and SR.7 will automatically clear and
RY/BY# will return to VOL. After the Program
Resume command is written, the device
automatically outputs status register data when
read (see Figure 9). VPP must remain at VPPH1/2/3
(the same VPP level used for program) while in
program suspend mode. RP# must also remain at
VIH or VHH (the same RP# level used for program).
4.9
Set Block and Master Lock-Bit
Commands
A flexible block locking and unlocking scheme is
enabled via a combination of block lock-bits and a
master lock-bit. The block lock-bits gate program
and erase operations while the master lock-bit
gates block-lock bit modification. With the master
lock-bit not set, individual block lock-bits can be set
using the Set Block Lock-Bit command. The Set
Master Lock-Bit command, in conjunction with
RP# = VHH, sets the master lock-bit. After the
16
E
master lock-bit is set, subsequent setting of block
lock-bits requires both the Set Block Lock-Bit
command and VHH on the RP# pin. See Table 6 for
a summary of hardware and software write
protection options.
Set block lock-bit and master lock-bit are initiated
using two-cycle command sequence. The set block
or master lock-bit setup along with appropriate
block or device address is written followed by either
the set block lock-bit confirm (and an address within
the block to be locked) or the set master lock-bit
confirm (and any device address). The WSM then
controls the set lock-bit algorithm. After the
sequence is written, the device automatically
outputs status register data when read (see
Figure 10). The CPU can detect the completion of
the set lock-bit event by analyzing the RY/BY# pin
output or status register bit SR.7.
When the set lock-bit operation is complete, status
register bit SR.4 should be checked. If an error is
detected, the status register should be cleared. The
CUI will remain in read status register mode until a
new command is issued.
This two-step sequence of setup followed by
execution ensures that lock-bits are not accidentally
set. An invalid Set Block or Master Lock-Bit
command will result in status register bits SR.4 and
SR.5 being set to “1.” Also, reliable operations
occur only when VCC = VCC2/3 and VPP = VPPH1/2/3.
In the absence of this high voltage, lock-bit contents
are protected against alteration.
A successful set block lock-bit operation requires
that the master lock-bit be cleared or, if the master
lock-bit is set, that RP# = VHH. If it is attempted with
the master lock-bit set and RP# = VIH, the operation
will fail, and SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1.” A
successful set master lock-bit operation requires
that RP# = VHH. If it is attempted with RP# = VIH,
the operation will fail, and SR.1 and SR.4 will be set
to “1.” Set block and master lock-bit operations with
VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious results and
should not be attempted.

4.10
BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
Clear Block Lock-Bits
Command
All set block lock-bits are cleared in parallel via the
Clear Block Lock-Bits command. With the master
lock-bit not set, block lock-bits can be cleared using
only the Clear Block Lock-Bits command. If the
master lock-bit is set, clearing block lock-bits
requires both the Clear Block Lock-Bits command
and VHH on the RP# pin. See Table 6 for a
summary of hardware and software write protection
options.
Clear block lock-bits operation is initiated using a
two-cycle command sequence. A clear block
lock-bits setup is written first. Then, the device
automatically outputs status register data when
read (see Figure 11). The CPU can detect
completion of the clear block lock-bits event by
analyzing the RY/BY# pin output or status register
bit SR.7.
When the operation is complete, status register bit
SR.5 should be checked. If a clear block lock-bit
error is detected, the status register should be
cleared. The CUI will remain in read status register
mode until another command is issued.
This two-step sequence of set-up followed by
execution ensures that block lock-bits are not
accidentally cleared. An invalid Clear Block
Lock-Bits command sequence will result in status
register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.” Also, a
reliable clear block lock-bits operation can only
occur when VCC = VCC2/3 and VPP = VPPH1/2/3. If a
clear block lock-bits operation is attempted while
VPP ≤ VPPLK, SR.3 and SR.5 will be set to “1.” In the
absence of this high voltage, the block lock-bits
content are protected against alteration. A successful clear block lock-bits operation requires that
the master lock-bit is not set or, if the master lockbit is set, that RP# = VHH. If it is attempted with the
master lock-bit set and RP# = VIH, SR.1 and SR.5
will be set to “1” and the operation will fail. A clear
block lock-bits operation with VIH < RP# < VHH
produce spurious results and should not be
attempted.
If a clear block lock-bits operation is aborted due to
VPP or VCC transitioning out of valid range or RP#
active transition, block lock-bit values are left in an
undetermined state. A repeat of clear block lockbits is required to initialize block lock-bit contents to
known values. Once the master lock-bit is set, it
cannot be cleared.

BYTE-WIDE SmartVoltage FlashFile™ MEMORY FAMILY
5.0
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
5.1
Three-Line Output Control
Intel provides three control inputs to accommodate
multiple memory connections: CE#, OE#, and RP#.
Three-line control provides for:
a. Lowest possible memory power dissipation.
b. Data bus contention avoidance.
To use these control inputs efficiently, an address
decoder should enable CE# while OE# should be
connected to all memory devices and the system’s
READ# control line. This assures that only selected
memory devices have active outputs while deselected memory devices are in standby mode.
RP# should be connected to the system
POWERGOOD signal to prevent unintended writes
during system power transitions. POWERGOOD
should also toggle during system reset.
5.2
RY/BY# Hardware Detection
RY/BY# is a full CMOS output that provides a
hardware method of detecting block erase, program
and lock-bit configuration completion. This output
can be directly connected to an interrupt input of
the system CPU. RY/BY# transitions low when the
WSM is busy and returns to VOH when it is finished
executing the internal algorithm. During suspend
and deep power-down modes, RY/BY# remains at
VOH.
5.3
Power Supply Decoupling
Flash memory power switching characteristics
require careful device decoupling. System
designers are interested in three supply current
issues: standby current levels, active current levels
and transient peaks produced by falling and rising
edges of CE# and OE#. Two-line control and proper
decoupling capacitor selection will suppress
transient voltage peaks. Each device should have a
0.1 µF ceramic capacitor connected between its
VCC and GND and between its VPP and GND.
These high-frequency, low-inductance capacitors
should be placed as close as possible to package
leads. Additionally, for every eight devices, a 4.7 µF
electrolytic capacitor should be placed at the array’s
power supply connection between VCC and GND.
The bulk capacitor will overcome voltage slumps
caused by PC board trace inductance.
PRODUCT PREVIEW
5.4
VPP Trace on Printed Circuit
Boards
Updating flash memories that reside in the target
system requires that the printed circuit board
designer pay attention to the VPP power supply
trace. The VPP pin supplies the memory cell current
for byte writing and block erasing. Use similar trace
widths and layout considerations given to the VCC
power bus. Adequate VPP supply traces and
decoupling will decrease VPP voltage spikes and
overshoots.
5.5
VCC, VPP, RP# Transitions
Block erase, program and lock-bit configuration are
not guaranteed if VPP or VCC fall outside of a valid
voltage range (VCC2/3 and VPPH1/2/3) or RP# ≠ VIH or
VHH. If VPP error is detected, status register bit
SR.3 is set to “1” along with SR.4 or SR.5,
depending on the attempted operation. If RP#
transitions to VIL during block erase, program, or
lock-bit configuration, RY/BY# will remain low until
the reset operation is complete. Then, the operation
will abort and the device will enter deep powerdown. The aborted operation may leave data
partially altered. Therefore, the command sequence
must be repeated after normal operation is
restored.
5.6
Power-Up/Down Protection
The device is designed to offer protection against
accidental block erasure, byte writing, or lock-bit
configuration during power transitions. Upon powerup, the device is indifferent as to which power
supply (VPP or VCC) powers-up first. Internal
circuitry resets the CUI to read array mode at
power-up.
A system designer must guard against spurious
writes for VCC voltages above VLKO when VPP is
active. Since both WE# and CE# must be low for a
command write, driving either input signal to VIH will
inhibit writes. The CUI’s two-step command
sequence architecture provides an added level of
protection against data alteration.
In-system block lock and unlock renders additional
protection during power-up by prohibiting block
erase and program operations. The device is
disabled while RP# = VIL regardless of its control
inputs state.

NOTES:
1. All currents are in RMS unless otherwise noted. Typical values at nominal VCC voltage and TA = +25°C. These currents are
valid for all product versions (packages and speeds).
2. ICCWS and ICCES are specified with the device de-selected. If read or written while in erase suspend mode, the device’s
current is the sum of ICCWS or ICCES and ICCR or ICCW.
3. Includes RY/BY#.
4. Block erases, programs, and lock-bit configurations are inhibited when VPP ≤ VPPLK, and not guaranteed in the range
between VPPLK (max) and VPPH1 (min), between VPPH1 (max) and VPPH2 (min), between VPPH2 (max) and VPPH3 (min), and
above VPPH3 (max).
5. Automatic Power Savings (APS) reduces typical ICCR to 1 mA at 5V and 3 mA at 2.7V and 3.3V VCC in static operation.
6. CMOS inputs are either VCC ± 0.2V or GND ± 0.2V. TTL inputs are either VIL or VIH.
7. Sampled, not 100% tested.
8. Master lock-bit set operations are inhibited when RP# = VIH. Block lock-bit configuration operations are inhibited when the
master lock-bit is set and RP# = VIH. Block erases and programs are inhibited when the corresponding block-lock bit is set
and RP# = VIH. Block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration operations are not guaranteed and should not be
attempted with VIH < RP# < VHH.
9. RP# connection to a VHH supply is allowed for a maximum cumulative period of 80 hours.

NOTES:
1. Read timing characteristics during block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration operations are the same as during
read-only operations. Refer to AC Characteristics for read-only operations.
2. A write operation can be initiated and terminated with either CE# or WE#.
3. Sampled, not 100% tested.
4. Refer to Table 4 for valid AIN and DIN for block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration.
5. VPP should be held at VPPH1/2/3 (and if necessary RP# should be held at VHH) until determination of block erase, program,
or lock-bit configuration success (SR.1/3/4/5 = 0).
6. See Ordering Information for device speeds (valid operational combinations).
7. Write pulse width (tWP) is defined from CE# or WE# going low (whichever goes low last) to CE# or WE# going high
(whichever goes high first). Hence, tWP = tWLWH = tELEH = tWLEH = tELWH. If CE# is driven low 10 ns before WE# going low,
WE# pulse width requirement decreases to tWP – 10 ns for 5V VCC and tWP – 20 ns for 2.7V and 3.3V VCC writes.
8. Block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration with VCC < 3.0V should not be attempted.
9. Write pulse width high (tWPH) is defined from CE# or WE# going high (whichever goes high first) to CE# or WE# going low
(whichever goes low last). Hence, tWPH = tWHWL = tEHEL = tWHEL = tEHWL.
