GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MX26LV160 is a 16-mega bit high speed Flash
memory organized as 2M bytes of 8 bits or 1M words of
16 bits. MXIC's high speed Flash memories offer the
most cost-effective and reliable read/write non-volatile
random access memory. The MX26LV160 is packaged
in 44-pin SOP, 48-pin TSOP, and 48-ball CSP. It is designed to be reprogrammed and erased in system or in
standard EPROM programmers.
for 100% TTL level control inputs and fixed power supply levels during erase and programming, while maintaining maximum EPROM compatibility.
MXIC high speed Flash technology reliably stores
memory contents even after 2,000 erase and program
cycles. The MXIC cell is designed to optimize the erase
and programming mechanisms. In addition, the combination of advanced tunnel oxide processing and low internal electric fields for erase and program operations
produces reliable cycling. The MX26LV160 uses a
3.0V~3.6V VCC supply to perform the High Reliability
Erase and auto Program/Erase algorithms.
The standard MX26LV160 offers access time as fast as
55ns, allowing operation of high-speed microprocessors
without wait states. To eliminate bus contention, the
MX26LV160 has separate chip enable (CE#) and output
enable (OE#) controls.
The highest degree of latch-up protection is achieved
with MXIC's proprietary non-epi process. Latch-up protection is proved for stresses up to 100 milliamperes on
address and data pin from -1V to VCC + 1V.
MXIC's high speed Flash memories augment EPROM
functionality with in-circuit electrical erasure and programming. The MX26LV160 uses a command register to
manage this functionality. The command register allows

MX26LV160
the device automatically times the erase pulse width,
provides the erase verification, and counts the number of
sequences. A status bit toggling between consecutive
read cycles provides feedback to the user as to the status of the erasing operation.
AUTOMATIC PROGRAMMING
The MX26LV160 is word/byte programmable using the
Automatic Programming algorithm. The Automatic Programming algorithm makes the external system do not
need to have time out sequence nor to verify the data
programmed.
Register contents serve as inputs to an internal statemachine which controls the erase and programming circuitry. During write cycles, the command register internally latches address and data needed for the programming and erase operations. During a system write cycle,
addresses are latched on the falling edge, and data are
latched on the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever
happens first.
AUTOMATIC PROGRAMMING ALGORITHM
MXIC's Automatic Programming algorithm requires the
user to only write program set-up commands (including
2 unlock write cycle and A0H) and a program command
(program data and address). The device automatically
times the programming pulse width, provides the program verification, and counts the number of sequences.
A status bit similar to DATA# polling and a status bit
toggling between consecutive read cycles, provide feedback to the user as to the status of the programming
operation. Refer to write operation status, table 7, for more
information on these status bits.
MXIC's high speed Flash technology combines years of
EPROM experience to produce the highest levels of
quality, reliability, and cost effectiveness. The MX26LV160
electrically erases all bits simultaneously using FowlerNordheim tunneling. The bytes are programmed by using the EPROM programming mechanism of hot electron
injection.
During a program cycle, the state-machine will control
the program sequences and command register will not
respond to any command set. After the state machine
has completed its task, it will allow the command register to respond to its full command set.
AUTOMATIC CHIP ERASE
The entire chip is bulk erased using 10 ms erase pulses
according to MXIC's Automatic Chip Erase algorithm.
The Automatic Erase algorithm automatically programs
the entire array prior to electrical erase. The timing and
verification of electrical erase are controlled internally
within the device.
AUTOMATIC SELECT
The auto select mode provides manufacturer and device identification, through identifier codes output on
Q7~Q0. This mode is mainly adapted for programming
equipment on the device to be programmed with its programming algorithm. When programming by high voltage
method, automatic select mode requires VID (11V to
12V) on address pin A9 and other address pin A6, A1
and A0 as referring to Table 3. In addition, to access the
automatic select codes in-system, the host can issue
the automatic select command through the command
register without requiring VID, as shown in table 4.
AUTOMATIC SECTOR ERASE
The MX26LV160 is sector(s) erasable using MXIC's Auto
Sector Erase algorithm. The Automatic Sector Erase
algorithm automatically programs the specified sector(s)
prior to electrical erase. The timing and verification of
electrical erase are controlled internally within the device. An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple
sectors, or the entire device.
AUTOMATIC ERASE ALGORITHM
MXIC's Automatic Erase algorithm requires the user to
write commands to the command register using standard microprocessor write timings. The device will automatically pre-program and verify the entire array. Then

REQUIREMENTS FOR READING ARRAY
DATA
To read array data from the outputs, the system must
drive the CE# and OE# pins to VIL. CE# is the power
control and selects the device. OE# is the output control
and gates array data to the output pins. WE# should remain at VIH.
STANDBY MODE
When using both pins of CE# and RESET#, the device
enter CMOS Standby with both pins held at Vcc ± 0.3V.
If CE# and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within the
range of VCC ± 0.3V, the device will still be in the standby
mode, but the standby current will be larger. During Auto
Algorithm operation, Vcc active current (Icc2) is required
even CE# = "H" until the operation is completed. The
device can be read with standard access time (tCE) from
either of these standby modes, before it is ready to read
data.
The internal state machine is set for reading array data
upon device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This
ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory content occurs during the power transition. No command is
necessary in this mode to obtain array data. Standard
microprocessor read cycles that assert valid address on
the device address inputs produce valid data on the device data outputs. The device remains enabled for read
access until the command register contents are altered.
OUTPUT DISABLE
With the OE# input at a logic high level (VIH), output
from the devices are disabled. This will cause the output
pins to be in a high impedance state.
WRITE COMMANDS/COMMAND SEQUENCES
To program data to the device or erase sectors of memory
, the system must drive WE# and CE# to VIL, and OE#
to VIH.
RESET# OPERATION
The "word/byte Program Command Sequence" section
has details on programming data to the device.
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data. When the RESET#
pin is driven low for at least a period of tRP, the device
immediately terminates any operation in progress, tristates all output pins, and ignores all read/write commands for the duration of the RESET# pulse. The device also resets the internal state machine to reading
array data. The operation that was interrupted should be
reinitiated once the device is ready to accept another
command sequence, to ensure data integrity.
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sectors , or the entire device. Table indicates the address
space that each sector occupies. A "sector address"
consists of the address bits required to uniquely select a
sector. The Writing specific address and data commands
or sequences into the command register initiates device
operations. Table 1 defines the valid register command
sequences. Writing incorrect address and data values or
writing them in the improper sequence resets the device
to reading array data. Section has details on erasing a
sector or the entire chip.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET# pulse.
When RESET# is held at VSS±0.3V, the device draws
CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is held at VIL
but not within VSS±0.3V, the standby current will be
greater.
After the system writes the autoselect command sequence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The system can then read autoselect codes from the internal
register (which is separate from the memory array) on
Q7-Q0. Standard read cycle timings apply in this mode.
Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autoselect Command
Sequence section for more information.
The RESET# pin may be tied to system reset circuitry.
A system reset would that also reset the high speed
Flash, enabling the system to read the boot-up firmware
from the high speed Flash.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active current specification for the write mode. The "AC
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase operation, the RY/BY# pin remains a "0" (busy) until the inter-

nal reset operation is complete, which requires a time of
tREADY (during Embedded Algorithms). The system can
thus monitor RY/BY# to determine whether the reset
operation is complete. If RESET# is asserted when a
program or erase operation is completed within a time of
tREADY (not during Embedded Algorithms). The system can read data tRH after the RESET# pin returns to
VIH.
are then followed by the chip erase command 10H or
sector erase command 30H.
The Automatic Chip Erase does not require the device
to be entirely pre-programmed prior to executing the Automatic Chip Erase. Upon executing the Automatic Chip
Erase, the device will automatically program and verify
the entire memory for an all-zero data pattern. When the
device is automatically verified to contain an all-zero
pattern, a self-timed chip erase and verify begin. The
erase and verify operations are completed when the data
on Q7 is "1" at which time the device returns to the
Read mode. The system is not required to provide any
control or timing during these operations.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET#
parameters and to Figure 14 for the timing diagram.
READ/RESET COMMAND
The read or reset operation is initiated by writing the
read/reset command sequence into the command register. Microprocessor read cycles retrieve array data.
The device remains enabled for reads until the command
register contents are altered.
When using the Automatic Chip Erase algorithm, note
that the erase automatically terminates when adequate
erase margin has been achieved for the memory array
(no erase verification command is required).
If the Erase operation was unsuccessful, the data on
Q5 is "1" (see Table 7), indicating the erase operation
exceed internal timing limit.
If program-fail or erase-fail happen, the write of F0H will
reset the device to abort the operation. A valid command must then be written to place the device in the
desired state.
The automatic erase begins on the rising edge of the
last WE# or CE# pulse, whichever happens first in the
command sequence and terminates when the data on
Q7 is "1" at which time the device returns to the Read
mode, or the data on Q6 stops toggling for two consecutive read cycles at which time the device returns to the
Read mode.
SILICON-ID READ COMMAND
High speed Flash memories are intended for use in applications where the local CPU alters memory contents.
As such, manufacturer and device codes must be accessible while the device resides in the target system.
PROM programmers typically access signature codes
by raising A9 to a high voltage (VID). However, multiplexing high voltage onto address lines is not generally
desired system design practice.
The MX26LV160 contains a Silicon-ID-Read operation to
supple traditional PROM programming methodology. The
operation is initiated by writing the read silicon ID command sequence into the command register.
SET-UP AUTOMATIC CHIP/SECTOR ERASE
COMMANDS
Chip erase is a six-bus cycle operation. There are two
"unlock" write cycles. These are followed by writing the
"set-up" command 80H. Two more "unlock" write cycles

READING ARRAY DATA
RESET COMMAND
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to retrieve data. The device is also ready to read array data
after completing an Automatic Program or Automatic
Erase algorithm.
Writing the reset command to the device resets the device to reading array data. Address bits are don't care
for this command.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the device to reading array
data. Once erasure begins, however, the device ignores
reset commands until the operation is complete.
The system must issue the reset command to re-enable the device for reading array data if Q5 goes high, or
while in the autoselect mode. See the "Reset Command"
section, next.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in a program command sequence before
programming begins. This resets the device to reading
array data. Once programming begins, however, the device ignores reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an SILICON ID READ command sequence. Once in the SILICON ID READ mode, the reset
command must be written to return to reading array data.
If Q5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command returns the device to reading array data.
P/N:PM1090
REV. 1.0, NOV. 08, 2004

MX26LV160
followed by the program set-up command. The program
address and data are written next, which in turn initiate
the Embedded Program algorithm. The system is not
required to provide further controls or timings. The device automatically generates the program pulses and
verifies the programmed cell margin. Table 1 shows the
address and data requirements for the word/byte program command sequence.
SECTOR ERASE COMMANDS
The Automatic Sector Erase does not require the device to be entirely pre-programmed prior to executing
the Automatic Sector Erase Set-up command and Automatic Sector Erase command. Upon executing the
Automatic Sector Erase command, the device will automatically program and verify the sector(s) memory for
an all-zero data pattern. The system is not required to
provide any control or timing during these operations.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete,
the device then returns to reading array data and addresses are no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the program operation by using Q7,
Q6, or RY/BY#. See "Write Operation Status" for information on these status bits.
When the sector(s) is automatically verified to contain
an all-zero pattern, a self-timed sector erase and verify
begin. The erase and verify operations are complete
when either the data on Q7 is "1" at which time the device returns to the Read mode, or the data on Q6 stops
toggling for two consecutive read cycles at which time
the device returns to the Read mode. The system is not
required to provide any control or timing during these
operations.
Any commands written to the device during the Em-bedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a hardware reset immediately terminates the programming
operation. The word/byte Program command sequence
should be reinitiated once the device has reset to reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
When using the Automatic sector Erase algorithm, note
that the erase automatically terminates when adequate
erase margin has been achieved for the memory array
(no erase verification command is required). Sector
erase is a six-bus cycle operation. There are two "unlock" write cycles. These are followed by writing the
set-up command 80H. Two more "unlock" write cycles
are then followed by the sector erase command 30H.
The sector address is latched on the falling edge of WE#
or CE#, whichever happens later, while the command
(data) is latched on the rising edge of WE# or CE#,
whichever happens first. Sector addresses selected are
loaded into internal register on the sixth falling edge of
WE# or CE#, whichever happens later. Each successive sector load cycle started by the falling edge of WE#
or CE#, whichever happens later must begin within 50us
from the rising edge of the preceding WE# or CE#, whichever happens first. Otherwise, the loading period ends
and internal auto sector erase cycle starts. (Monitor Q3
to determine if the sector erase timer window is still open,
see section Q3, Sector Erase Timer.) Any command other
than Sector Erase (30H) during the time-out period resets the device to read mode.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across
sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed from a
"0" back to a "1". Attempting to do so may halt the operation and set Q5 to "1" ,” or cause the Data# Polling
algorithm to indicate the operation was successful. However, a succeeding read will show that the data is still
"0". Only erase operations can convert a "0" to a "1".
WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The device provides several bits to determine the status of a write operation: Q2, Q3, Q5, Q6, Q7, and RY/
BY#. Table 7 and the following subsections describe the
functions of these bits. Q7, RY/BY#, and Q6 each offer
a method for determining whether a program or erase
operation is complete or in progress. These three bits
are discussed first.
WORD/BYTE PROGRAM COMMAND SEQUENCE
The device programs one byte of data for each program
operation. The command sequence requires four bus
cycles, and is initiated by writing two unlock write cycles,
P/N:PM1090
REV. 1.0, NOV. 08, 2004
13
MX26LV160
Q7: Data# Polling
Q6:Toggle BIT I
The Data# Polling bit, Q7, indicates to the host system
whether an Automatic Algorithm is in progress or completed. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the
final WE# pulse in the program or erase command sequence.
Toggle Bit I on Q6 indicates whether an Automatic Program or Erase algorithm is in progress or complete. Toggle
Bit I may be read at any address, and is valid after the
rising edge of the final WE# or CE#, whichever happens
first, in the command sequence (prior to the program or
erase operation), and during the sector time-out.
During the Automatic Program algorithm, the device outputs on Q7 the complement of the datum programmed
to Q7. When the Automatic Program algorithm is complete, the device outputs the datum programmed to Q7.
The system must provide the program address to read
valid status information on Q7.
During an Automatic Program or Erase algorithm operation, successive read cycles to any address cause Q6
to toggle. The system may use either OE# or CE# to
control the read cycles. When the operation is complete,
Q6 stops toggling.
When the device is actively erasing (that is, the Automatic Erase algorithm is in progress), Q6 toggling. However, the system must also use Q2 to determine which
sectors are erasing. Alternatively, the system can use
Q7.
During the Automatic Erase algorithm, Data# Polling produces a "0" on Q7. When the Automatic Erase algorithm is complete, Data# Polling produces a "1" on Q7.
This is analogous to the complement/true datum out-put
described for the Automatic Program algorithm: the erase
function changes all the bits in a sector to "1" prior to
this, the device outputs the "complement,” or "0".” The
system must provide an address within any of the sectors selected for erasure to read valid status information
on Q7.
Q6 stops toggling once the Automatic Program algorithm is complete.
Table 7 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on Q6.
When the system detects Q7 has changed from the
complement to true data, it can read valid data at Q7-Q0
on the following read cycles. This is because Q7 may
change asynchronously with Q0-Q6 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted low.
Q2:Toggle Bit II
The "Toggle Bit II" on Q2, when used with Q6, indicates
whether a particular sector is actively erasing (that is,
the Automatic Erase algorithm is in process). Toggle Bit
II is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# or CE#,
whichever happens first, in the command sequence.
RY/BY# : Ready/Busy
Q2 toggles when the system reads at addresses within
those sectors that have been selected for erasure. (The
system may use either OE# or CE# to control the read
cycles.) But Q2 cannot distinguish when the sector is
actively erasing. Q6, by comparison, indicates when
the device is actively erasing, but cannot distinguish
which sectors are selected for erasure. Thus, both status bits are required for sectors and mode information.
Refer to Table 7 to compare outputs for Q2 and Q6.
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin that
indicates whether an Automatic Erase/Program algorithm
is in progress or complete. The RY/BY# status is valid
after the rising edge of the final WE# or CE#, whichever
happens first, in the command sequence. Since RY/BY#
is an open-drain output, several RY/BY# pins can be
tied together in parallel with a pull-up resistor to VCC.
If the output is low (Busy), the device is actively erasing
or programming. If the output is high (Ready), the device
is ready to read array data, or is in the standby mode.
Reading Toggle Bits Q6/ Q2
Table 7 shows the outputs for RY/BY# during write operation.
Whenever the system initially begins reading toggle bit
status, it must read Q7-Q0 at least twice in a row to
determine whether a toggle bit is toggling. Typically, the
system would note and store the value of the toggle bit
P/N:PM1090
REV. 1.0, NOV. 08, 2004
14
MX26LV160
after the first read. After the second read, the system
would compare the new value of the toggle bit with the
first. If the toggle bit is not toggling, the device has
completed the program or erase operation. The system
can read array data on Q7-Q0 on the following read cycle.
operation, it specifies that the entire chip is bad or combination of sectors are bad.
If this time-out condition occurs during the word/byte
programming operation, it specifies that the entire sector containing that byte is bad and this sector may not
be reused, (other sectors are still functional and can be
reused).
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system
determines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the system also should note whether the value of Q5 is high
(see the section on Q5). If it is, the system should then
determine again whether the toggle bit is toggling, since
the toggle bit may have stopped toggling just as Q5 went
high. If the toggle bit is no longer toggling, the device
has successfully completed the program or erase operation. If it is still toggling, the device did not complete
the operation successfully, and the system must write
the reset command to return to reading array data.
The time-out condition will not appear if a user tries to
program a non blank location without erasing. Please
note that this is not a device failure condition since the
device was incorrectly used.
The remaining scenario is that system initially determines
that the toggle bit is toggling and Q5 has not gone high.
The system may continue to monitor the toggle bit and
Q5 through successive read cycles, determining the status as described in the previous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to perform other system tasks. In
this case, the system must start at the beginning of the
algorithm when it returns to determine the status of the
operation.
Q5
Exceeded Timing Limits
Q5 will indicate if the program or erase time has exceeded the specified limits (internal pulse count). Under
these conditions Q5 will produce a "1". This time-out
condition indicates that the program or erase cycle was
not successfully completed. Data# Polling and Toggle
Bit are the only operating functions of the device under
this condition.
If this time-out condition occurs during sector erase operation, it specifies that a particular sector is bad and it
may not be reused. However, other sectors are still functional and may be used for the program or erase operation. The device must be reset to use other sectors.
Write the Reset command sequence to the device, and
then execute program or erase command sequence. This
allows the system to continue to use the other active
sectors in the device.
If this time-out condition occurs during the chip erase

Sector Erase Timer
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
In order to reduce power switching effect, each device
should have a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor connected between its VCC and GND.
After the completion of the initial sector erase command
sequence, the sector erase time-out will begin. Q3 will
remain low until the time-out is complete. Data# Polling
and Toggle Bit are valid after the initial sector erase command sequence.
POWER-UP SEQUENCE
The MX26LV160 powers up in the Read only mode. In
addition, the memory contents may only be altered after
successful completion of the predefined command sequences.
If Data# Polling or the Toggle Bit indicates the device
has been written with a valid erase command, Q3 may
be used to determine if the sector erase timer window is
still open. If Q3 is high ("1") the internally controlled
erase cycle has begun; attempts to write subsequent
commands to the device will be ignored until the erase
operation is completed as indicated by Data# Polling or
Toggle Bit. If Q3 is low ("0"), the device will accept
additional sector erase commands. To insure the command has been accepted, the system software should
check the status of Q3 prior to and following each subsequent sector erase command. If Q3 were high on the
second status check, the command may not have been
accepted.
DATA PROTECTION
The MX26LV160 is designed to offer protection against
accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious
system level signals that may exist during power transition. During power up the device automatically resets
the state machine in the Read mode. In addition, with its
control register architecture, alteration of the memory
contents only occurs after successful completion of specific command sequences. The device also incorporates
several features to prevent inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC power-up and power-down transition or
system noise.
WRITE PULSE "GLITCH" PROTECTION
Noise pulses of less than 5ns(typical) on CE# or WE#
will not initiate a write cycle.
LOGICAL INHIBIT
Writing is inhibited by holding any one of OE# = VIL,
CE# = VIH or WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle CE#
and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a logical
one.

During voltage transitions, input or I/O pins may overshoot to VCC +2.0 V for periods up to 20 ns.
2. Minimum DC input voltage on pins A9, OE#, and RESET# is -0.5 V. During voltage transitions, A9, OE#,
and RESET# may overshoot VSS to -2.0 V for periods of up to 20 ns. Maximum DC input voltage on pin
A9 is +12 V which may overshoot to 13.5V for periods
up to 20 ns.
3. No more than one output may be shorted to ground at
a time. Duration of the short circuit should not be
greater than one second.
Stresses above those listed under "Absolute Maximum
Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device.
This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this data sheet is
not implied. Exposure of the device to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
