GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MX29F1610 is a 16-mega bit Flash memory organized
as either 1M wordx16 or 2M bytex8. The MX29F1610
includes 16-128KB(131,072) blocks or 16-64KW(65,536)
blocks. MXIC's Flash memories offer the most costeffective and reliable read/write non-volatile random
access memory. The MX29F1610 is packaged in 48-pin
TSOP or 44-pin SOP. For 48-pin TSOP, CE2 and RY/
BY are extra pins compared with 44-pin SOP package.
This is to optimize the products (such as solid-state disk
drives or flash memory cards) control pin budget. PWD
is available in 48 -pin TSOP for low power environment.
All the above three pins(CE2,RY/BY and PWD) plus one
extra VCC pin are not provided in 44-pin SOP. It is
designed to be reprogrammed and erased in-system or
in-standard EPROM programmers.
MX29F1610 uses a command register to manage this
functionality. The command register allows for 100%
TTL level control inputs and fixed power supply levels
during erase and programming, while maintaining
maximum EPROM compatibility.
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the
MX29F1610 does not require high input voltages for
programming. Five-volt-only commands determine the
operation of the device. Reading data out of the device
is similar to reading from an EPROM.
MXIC Flash technology reliably stores memory contents
even after 10,000 cycles. The MXIC's 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
programming operations produces reliable cycling. The
MX29F1610 uses a 5V ± 10% VCC supply to perform
the Auto Erase and Auto Program algorithms.
The standard MX29F1610 offers access times as fast
as 100ns, allowing operation of high-speed
microprocessors without wait. To eliminate bus
contention, the MX29F1610 has separate chip
enables(CE1 and CE2), output enable (OE), and write
enable (WE) 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 milliamps on
address and data pin from -1V to VCC +1V.
MXIC's Flash memories augment EPROM functionality
with in-circuit electrical erasure and programming. The

NAME AND FUNCTION
ADDRESS INPUTS: for memory addresses. Addresses are internally
latched during a write cycle.
LOW-BYTE DATA BUS: Input data and commands during Command
Interface Register(CIR) write cycles. Outputs array,status and identifier
data in the appropriate read mode. Floated when the chip is de-selected
or the outputs are disabled.
HIGH-BYTE DATA BUS: Inputs data during x 16 Data-Write operations.
Outputs array, identifier data in the appropriate read mode; not used for
status register reads. Floated when the chip is de-selected or the
outputs are disabled.
Selects between high-byte data INPUT/OUTPUT(BYTE = HIGH) and
LSB ADDRESS(BYTE = LOW)
CHIP ENABLE INPUTS: Activate the device's control logic, Input buffers,
decoders and sense amplifiers. With either CE1 or CE2 high, the device
is de-selected and power consumption reduces to Standby level upon
completion of any current program or erase operations. Both CE1,CE2
must be low to select the device. CE2 is not provided in 44-pin SOP
package.
All timing specifications are the same for both signals. Device selection
occurs with the latter falling edge of CE1 or CE2. The first rising edge
of CE1 or CE2 disables the device.
POWER-DOWN: Puts the device in deep power-down mode. PWD is
active low; PWD high gates normal operation. PWD also locks out erase
or program operation when active low providing data protection during
power transitions.
OUTPUT ENABLES: Gates the device's data through the output buffers
during a read cycle OE is active low.
WRITE ENABLE: Controls writes to the Command Interface
Register(CIR). WE is active low.
READY/BUSY: Indicates the status of the internal Write State
Machine(WSM). When low it indicates that the WSM is performing a
erase or program operation. RY/BY high indicate that the WSM is ready
for new commands, sector erase is suspended or the device is in deep
power-down mode. RY/BY is always active and does not float to tristate
off when the chip is deselected or data output are
disabled.

WRITE PROTECT: Top or Bottom sector can be protected by writing a
non-volatile protect-bit for each sector. When WP is high, all sectors can
be programmed or erased regardless of the state of the protect-bits.
The WP input buffer is disabled when PWD transitions low (deep powerdown mode).
BYTE ENABLE: BYTE Low places device in x8 mode. All data is then
input or output on Q0-7 and Q8-14 float. AddressQ15/A-1 selects
between the high and low byte. BYTE high places the device in x16
mode, and turns off the Q15/A-1 input buffer. Address A0, then becomes
the lowest order address.

NOTES :
1. X can be VIH or VIL for address or control pins except for RY/BY which is either VOL orVOH.
2. RY/BY output is open drain. When the WSM is ready, Erase is suspended or the device is in deep power-down mode, RY/BY will be
at VOH if it is tied to VCC through a 1K ~ 100K resistor. When the RY/BY at VOH is independent of OE while a WSM operation is in progress.
3. PWD at GND± 0.2V ensures the lowest deep power-down current.
4. A0 and A1 at VIL provide manufacturer ID codes. A0 at VIH and A1 at VIL provide device ID codes. A0 at VIL, A1 at VIH and with appropriate
sector addresses provide Sector Protect Code.(Refer to Table 4)
5. Commands for different Erase operations, Data program operations or Sector Protect operations can only be successfully completed
through proper command sequence.
6. While the WSM is running. RY/BY in Level-Mode stays at VOL until all operations are complete. RY/BY goes to VOH when the WSM
is not busy or in erase suspend mode.
7. RY/BY may be at VOL while the WSM is busy performing various operations. For example, a status register read during a write operation.
8. VID = 11.5V - 12.5V.
9. Q15/A-1 = VIL, Q0 - Q7 =D0-D7 out . Q15/A-1 = VIH, Q0 - Q7 = D8 -D15 out.

WRITE OPERATIONS
Commands are written to the COMMAND INTERFACE
REGISTER (CIR) using standard microprocessor write
timings. The CIR serves as the interface between the
microprocessor and the internal chip operation. The
CIR can decipher Read Array, Read Silicon ID, Erase
and Program command. In the event of a read command,
the CIR simply points the read path at either the array
or the silicon ID, depending on the specific read command
given. For a program or erase cycle, the CIR informs
the write state machine that a program or erase has
been requested. During a program cycle, the write state
machine will control the program sequences and the
CIR will only respond to status reads. During a sector/
chip erase cycle, the CIR will respond to status reads
and erase suspend. After the write state machine has
completed its task, it will allow the CIR to respond to its
full command set. The CIR stays at read status register
mode until the microprocessor issues another valid
command sequence.
Device operations are selected by writing commands
into the CIR. Table 3 below defines 16 Mbit flash family
command.

DEVICE OPERATION
SILICON ID READ
The manufacturer and device codes may also be read
via the command register, for instances when the
MX29F1610 is erased or programmed in a system
without access to high voltage on the A9 pin. The
command sequence is illustrated in Table 3.
The Silicon ID Read mode allows the reading out of a
binary code from the device and will identify its
manufacturer and type. This mode is intended for use
by programming equipment for the purpose of
automatically matching the device to be programmed
with its corresponding programming algorithm. This
mode is functional over the entire temperature range of
the device.
Byte 0 (A0=VIL) represents the manfacturer's code
(MXIC=C2H) and byte 1 (A0=VIH) the device identifier
code (MX29F1610=F1H).
To activate this mode, the programming equipment
must force VID (11.5V~12.5V) on address pin A9. Two
identifier bytes may then be sequenced from the device
outputs by toggling address A0 from VIL to VIH. All
addresses are don't cares except A0 and A1.
To terminate the operation, it is necessary to write the
read/reset command sequence into the CIR.

READ/RESET COMMAND
After three-cycle command sequence is given, a
byte(word) load is performed by applying a low pulse on
the WE or CE input with CE or WE low (respectively)
and OE high. The address is latched on the falling edge
of CE or WE, whichever occurs last. The data is latched
by the first rising edge of CE or WE. Maximum of 128
bytes of data may be loaded into each page by the same
procedure as outlined in the page program section
below.
The read or reset operation is initiated by writing the
read/reset command sequence into the command
register. Microprocessor read cycles retrieve array
data from the memory. The device remains enabled for
reads until the CIR contents are altered by a valid
command sequence.
The device will automatically power-up in the read/reset
state. In this case, a command sequence is not required
to read data. Standard microprocessor read cycles will
retrieve array data. This default value ensures that no
spurious alteration of the memory content occurs during
the power transition. Refer to the AC Read
Characteristics and Waveforms for the specific timing
parameters.
BYTE-WIDE LOAD/WORD-WIDE LOAD
Byte(word) loads are used to enter the 128 bytes(64
words) of a page to be programmed or the software
codes for data protection. A byte load(word load) is
performed by applying a low pulse on the WE or CE
input with CE or WE low (respectively) and OE high.
The address is latched on the falling edge of CE or WE,
whichever occurs last. The data is latched by the first
rising edge of CE or WE.
The MX29F1610 is accessed like an EPROM. When
CE and OE are low and WE is high the data stored at the
memory location determined by the address pins is
asserted on the outputs. The outputs are put in the high
impedance state whenever CE or OE is high. This dual
line control gives designers flexibility in preventing bus
contention.
Either byte-wide load or word-wide load is
determined(Byte = VIL or VIH is latched) on the falling
edge of the WE(or CE) during the 3rd command write
cycle.
PROGRAM
CE stands for the combination of CE1 and CE2 in 48-pin
TSOP package. CE stands for CE1 in 44-pin SOP
package.
Any page to be programmed should have the page in
the erased state first, i.e. performing sector erase is
suggested before page programming can be performed.
Note that the read/reset command is not valid when
program or erase is in progress.
The device is programmed on a page basis. If a
byte(word) of data within a page is to be changed, data
for the entire page can be loaded into the device. Any
byte(word) that is not loaded during the programming of
its page will be still in the erased state (i.e. FFH). Once
the bytes of a page are loaded into the device, they are
simultaneously programmed during the internal
programming period. After the first data byte(word) has
been loaded into the device, successive bytes(words)
are entered in the same manner. Each new byte(word)
to be programmed must have its high to low transition on
WE (or CE) within 30us of the low to high transition of
PAGE PROGRAM
To initiate Page program mode, a three-cycle command
sequence is required. There are two " unlock" write
cycles. These are followed by writing the page program
command-A0H.
Any attempt to write to the device without the threecycle command sequence will not start the internal
Write State Machine(WSM), no data will be written to
the device.

WE (or CE) of the preceding byte(word). A6 to A19
specify the page address, i.e., the device is pagealigned on 128 bytes(64 words)boundary. The page
address must be valid during each high to low transition
of WE or CE. A-1 to A5 specify the byte address within
the page, A0 to A5 specify the word address withih the
page. The byte(word) may be loaded in any order;
sequential loading is not required. If a high to low
transition of CE or WE is not detected whithin 100us of
the last low to high transition, the load period will end
and the internal programming period will start. The Auto
page program terminates when status on DQ7 is "1" at
which time the device stays at read status register mode
until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command
sequence.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 1,7,8)
SECTOR ERASE
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,
while the command (data) is latched on the rising edge
of WE.
Sector erase does not require the user to program the
device prior to erase. The system is not required to
provide any controls or timings during these operations.
The automatic sector erase begins on the rising edge
of the last WE pulse in the command sequence and
terminates when the status on DQ7 is "1" at which time
the device stays at read status register mode. The
device remains enabled for read status register mode
until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command
sequence.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 3,4,7,9)
CHIP ERASE
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
are then followed by the chip erase command-10H.
ERASE SUSPEND
Chip erase does not require the user to program the
device prior to erase.
This command only has meaning while the the WSM is
executing SECTOR or CHIP erase operation, and
therefore will only be responded to during SECTOR or
CHIP erase operation. After this command has been
executed, the CIR will initiate the WSM to suspend
erase operations, and then return to Read Status
Register mode. The WSM will set the DQ6 bit to a "1".
Once the WSM has reached the Suspend state,the
WSM will set the DQ7 bit to a "1", At this time, WSM
allows the CIR to respond to the Read Array, Read
Status Register, Abort and Erase Resume commands
only. In this mode, the CIR will not resopnd to any other
comands. The WSM will continue to run, idling in the
SUSPEND state, regardless of the state of all input
control pins, with the exclusion of PWD. PWD low will
immediately shut down the WSM and the remainder of
the chip.
The automatic erase begins on the rising edge of the
last WE pulse in the command sequence and terminates
when the status on DQ7 is "1" at which time the device
stays at read status register mode. The device remains
enabled for read status register mode until the CIR
contents are altered by a valid command
sequence.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 2,7,9)

READ STATUS REGISTER
CLEAR STATUS REGISTER
The MXIC's16 Mbit flash family contains a status register
which may be read to determine when a program or
erase operation is complete, and whether that operation
completed successfully. The status register may be
read at any time by writing the Read Status command
to the CIR. After writing this command, all subsequent
read operations output data from the status register
until another valid command sequence is written to the
CIR. A Read Array command must be written to the CIR
to return to the Read Array mode.
The Eraes fail status bit (DQ5) and Program fail status
bit (DQ4) are set by the write state machine, and can
only be reset by the system software. These bits can
indicate various failure conditions(see Table 6). By
allowing the system software to control the resetting of
these bits, several operations may be performed (such
as cumulatively programming several pages or erasing
multiple blocks in squence). The status register may
then be read to determine if an error occurred during
that programming or erasure series. This adds flexibility
to the way the device may be programmed or erased.
Additionally, once the program(erase) fail bit happens,
the program (erase) operation can not be performed
further. The program(erase) fail bit must be reset by
system software before further page program or sector
(chip) erase are attempted. To clear the status register,
the Clear Status Register command is written to the
CIR. Then, any other command may be issued to the
CIR. Note again that before a read cycle can be
initiated, a Read command must be written to the CIR to
specify whether the read data is to come from the Array,
Status Register or Silicon ID.
The status register bits are output on DQ2 - DQ7(table
6) whether the device is in the byte-wide (x8) or wordwide (x16) mode for the MX29F1610. In the word-wide
mode the upper byte, DQ(8:15) is set to 00H during a
Read Status command. In the byte-wide mode, DQ(8:14)
are tri-stated and DQ15/A-1 retains the low order address
function. DQ0-DQ1 is set to 0H in either x8 or x16 mode.
It should be noted that the contents of the status register
are latched on the falling edge of OE or CE whichever
occurs last in the read cycle. This prevents possible bus
errors which might occur if the contents of the status
register change while reading the status register. CE
or OE must be toggled with each subsequent status
read, or the completion of a program or erase operation
will not be evident.
The Status Register is the interface between the
microprocessor and the Write State Machine (WSM).
When the WSM is active, this register will indicate the
status of the WSM, and will also hold the bits indicating
whether or not the WSM was successful in performing
the desired operation. The WSM sets status bits four
through seven and clears bits six and seven, but cannot
clear status bits four and five. If Erase fail or Program
fail status bit is detected, the Status Register is not
cleared until the Clear Status Register command is
written. The MX29F1610 automatically outputs Status
Register data when read after Chip Erase, Sector
Erase, Page Program or Read Status Command write
cycle. The default state of the Status Register after
powerup and return from deep power-down mode is
(DQ7, DQ6, DQ5, DQ4) = 1000B. DQ3 = 0 or 1 depends
on sector-protect status, can not be changed by Clear
Status Register Command or Write State Machine.
DQ2 = 0 or 1 depends on Sleep status, During Sleep
mode or Abort mode DQ2 is set to "1"; DQ2 is reset to
"0" by Read Array command.

HARDWARE SECTOR PROTECTION
SECTOR UNPROTECT
The MX29F1610 features sector protection. This feature
will disable both program and erase operations in either
the top or the bottom sector (0 or 15). The sector
protection feature is enabled using system software by
the user(Refer to table 3). The device is shipped with
both sectors unprotected. Alternatively, MXIC may
protect sectors in the factory prior to shipping the
device.
It is also possible to unprotect the sector , same as the
first five write command cycles in activating sector
protection mode followed by the Unprotect Sector
command - 40H, the automatic Unprotect operation
begins on the rising edge of the last WE pulse in the
command sequence and terminates when the Status
on DQ7 is "1" at which time the device stays at the read
status register mode.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure
11,12)
SECTOR PROTECTION
To activate this mode, a six-bus cycle operation is
required. There are two "unlock" write cycles. These
are followed by writing the "set-up" command. Two
more 'unlock' write cycles are then followed by the Lock
Sector command - 20H. Sector address is latched on
the falling edge of CE or WE of the sixth cycle of the
command sequence. The automatic Lock operation
begins on the rising edge of the last WE pulse in the
command sequence and terminates when the Status
on DQ7 is "1" at which time the device stays at the read
status register mode.
The device remains enabled for read status register
mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid
command sequence.
The device remains enabled for read status register
mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid
command sequence (Refer to table 3,6 and Figure
10,12 ).
DEEP POWER-DOWN MODE
Either Protect or Unprotect sector mode is accomplished
by keeping WP high, i.e. protect-bit status can only be
changed with a valid command sequence and WP at
high. When WP is high, all sectors can be programmed
or erased regardless of the state of the protect-bits.
Protect-bit status will not be changed during chip/
sector erase operations. With WP at VIL, only
unprotected sectors can be programmed or erased.
The MXIC's16 Mbit flash family supports a typical ICC
of 1uA in deep power-down mode. One of the target
markets for these devices is in protable equipment
where the power consumption of the machine is of
prime importance. When PWD is a logic low (GND ±
0.2V), all circuits are turned off and the device typically
draws 1uA of ICC current.
VERIFY SECTOR PROTECT
To verify the Protect status of the Top and the Bottom
sector, operation is initiated by writing Silicon ID read
command into the command register. Following the
command write, a read cycle from address XXX0H
retrieves the Manufacturer code of C2H. A read cycle
from XXX1H returns the Device code F1H. A read cycle
from appropriate address returns information as to
which sectors are protected. To terminate the operation,
it is necessary to write the read/reset command
sequence into the CIR.
(Refer to table 3,4 and Figure 12)
During read modes, the PWD pin going low deselects
the memory and places the output drivers in a high
impedance state. Recovery from the deep power-down
state, requires a minimum of 700 nanoseconds to
access valid data.
During erase or program modes, PWD low will abort
either erase or program operation. The contents of the
memory are no longer valid as the data has been
corrupted by the PWD function. As in the read mode
above, all internal circuitry is turned off to achieve the
1uA current level.
A few retries are required if Protect status can not be
verified successfully after each operation.
PWD transitions to VIL or turning power off to the device
will clear the status register.
PWD pin is not provided in 44-pin SOP package.

SLEEP MODE
During Abort mode, the status registers, Silicon ID
codes remain valid and can still be read. The Device
Sleep Status bit - DQ2 will indicate that the device in the
sleep mode.
The MX29F1610 features two software controlled lowpower modes : Sleep and Abort modes. Sleep mode is
allowed during any current operations except that once
Suspend command is issued, Sleep command is
ignored. Abort mode is excuted only during Page
Program and Chip/Sector Erase mode.
Similar to the sleep mode, A read array command
MUST be written to bring the device out of the abort
state without incurring any wake up latency. Note that
once device is waken up, Clear status register mode is
required before a program or erase operation can be
executed.
To activate Sleep mode, a three-bus cycle operation is
required. The C0H command (Refer to table 3) puts the
device in the Sleep mode. Once in the Sleep mode and
with CMOS input level applied, the power of the device
is reduced to deep power-down current levels. The only
power consumed is diffusion leakage, transistor subthreshold conduction, input leakage, and output leakage.
RY/BY PIN AND PROGRAM/ERASE
POLLING
RY/BY is a full CMOS output that provides a hardware
method of detecting page program and sector erase
completion. It transitions to VIL after a program or erase
command sequence is written to the MX29F1610, and
returns to VOH when the WSM has finished executing
the internal algorithm.
The Sleep command allows the device to COMPLETE
current operations before going into Sleep mode. Once
current operation is done, device stays at read status
register mode, RY/BY returns to ready state. The status
registers are not reset during sleep command. Program
or erase fail bit may have been set if during program/
erase mode the device retry exceeds maximum count.
RY/BY can be connected to the interrupt input of the
system CPU or controller. It is active at all times, not
tristated if the CE or OE inputs are brought to VIH. RY/
BY is also VOH when the device is in erase suspend or
deep power-down modes.
During Sleep mode, the status registers, Silicon ID
codes remain valid and can still be read. The Device
Sleep Status bit - DQ2 will indicate that the device in the
sleep mode.
RY/BY pin is not provided in 44-pin SOP package.
DATA PROTECTION
Writing the Read Array command wakes up the device
out of sleep mode. DQ2 is reset to "0" and Device
returns to standby current level.
The MX29F1610 is designed to offer protection against
accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious
system level signals that may exist during power
transitions. During power up the device automatically
resets the internal state machine in the Read Array
mode. Also, with its control register architecture,
alteration of the memory contents only occurs after
successful completion of specific multi-bus cycle
command sequences.
ABORT MODE
To activate Abort mode, a three-bus cycle operation is
required. The E0H command (Refer to table 3) only
stops Page program or Sector /Chip erase operation
currently in progress and puts the device in Sleep mode.
But unlike the sleep command, the program or erase
operation will not be completed. Since the data in some
page/sectors is no longer valid due to an incomplete
program or erase operation, the program fail (DQ4) or
erase fail (DQ5)bit will be set.
The device also incorporates several features to prevent
inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC power-up
and power-down transitions or system noise.
After the abort command is executed and with CMOS
input level applied, the device current is reduced to the
same level as in deep power-down or sleep modes.
Device stays at read status register mode, RY/BY
returns to ready state.

LOW VCC WRITE INHIBIT
WRITE PULSE "GLITCH" PROTECTION
To avoid initiation of a write cycle during VCC power-up
and power-down, a write cycle is locked out for VCC
less than VLKO(= 3.2V , typically 3.5V). If VCC < VLKO,
the command register is disabled and all internal
program/erase circuits are disabled. Under this condition
the device will reset to the read mode. Subsequent
writes will be ignored until the VCC level is greater than
VLKO. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the
control pins are logically correct to prevent unintentional
write when VCC is above VLKO.
Noise pulses of less than 10ns (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.

NOTES:
1. All currents are in RMS unless otherwise noted. Typical values at VCC = 5.0V, T = 25°C. These currents are valid for all
product versions (package and speeds).
2. ICC3 is specified with the device de-selected. If the device is read while in erase suspend mode, current draw is the sum
of ICC3 and ICC1/2.
3. VIL min. = -1.0V for pulse width £ 50ns.
VIL min. = -2.0V for pulse width £ 20ns.
4. VIH max. = VCC + 1.5V for pulse width £ 20ns. If VIH is over the specified maximum value, read operation cannot be
guaranteed.
