PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SST36VF1601 is 1M x16 CMOS Concurrent Read/
Write Flash Memory manufactured with SST’s proprietary,
high performance CMOS SuperFlash technology. The
split-gate cell design and thick oxide tunneling injector
attain better reliability and manufacturability compared with
alternate approaches.The SST36VF1601 writes (Program
or Erase) with a 2.7-3.6V power supply. The
SST36VF1601 device conforms to JEDEC standard
pinouts for x16 memories.
Featuring high performance Word-Program, the
SST36VF1601 device provides a typical Word-Program
time of 14 µsec. The devices use Toggle Bit or Data# Polling to detect the completion of the Program or Erase operation. To protect against inadvertent write, the
SST36VF1601 device has on-chip hardware and Software
Data Protection schemes. Designed, manufactured, and
tested for a wide spectrum of applications, the

SST36VF1601 device is offered with a guaranteed endurance of 10,000 cycles. Data retention is rated at greater
than 100 years.
The SST36VF1601 is suited for applications that require
convenient and economical updating of program, configuration, or data memory. For all system applications, the
SST36VF1601 significantly improves performance and reliability, while lowering power consumption. The
SST36VF1601 inherently uses less energy during Erase
and Program than alternative flash technologies. The total
energy consumed is a function of the applied voltage, current, and time of application. Since for any given voltage
range, the SuperFlash technology uses less current to program and has a shorter erase time, the total energy consumed during any Erase or Program operation is less than
alternative flash technologies. The SST36VF1601 also
improves flexibility while lowering the cost for program,
data, and configuration storage applications.

16 Mbit Concurrent SuperFlash
SST36VF1601
Data Sheet
The SuperFlash technology provides fixed Erase and Program times, independent of the number of Erase/Program
cycles that have occurred. Therefore the system software
or hardware does not have to be modified or de-rated as is
necessary with alternative flash technologies, whose Erase
and Program times increase with accumulated Erase/Program cycles.
The data bus is in high impedance state when either
CE# or OE# is high. Refer to the Read cycle timing
diagram for further details (Figure 4).
Word-Program Operation
The SST36VF1601 is programmed on a word-by-word
basis. Before programming, one must ensure that the sector, in which the word which is being programmed exists, is
fully erased. The Program operation consists of three
steps. The first step is the three-byte load sequence for
Software Data Protection. The second step is to load word
address and word data. During the Word-Program operation, the addresses are latched on the falling edge of either
CE# or WE#, whichever occurs last. The data is latched on
the rising edge of either CE# or WE#, whichever occurs
first. The third step is the internal Program operation which
is initiated after the rising edge of the fourth WE# or CE#,
whichever occurs first. The Program operation, once initiated, will be completed typically within 10 µs. See Figures 5
and 6 for WE# and CE# controlled Program operation timing diagrams and Figure 19 for flowcharts. During the Program operation, the only valid reads are Data# Polling and
Toggle Bit. During the internal Program operation, the host
is free to perform additional tasks. Any commands issued
during the internal Program operation are ignored.
To meet high density, surface mount requirements, the
SST36VF1601 is offered in 48-lead TSOP and 48-ball
TFBGA packages. See Figures 2 and 3 for pinouts.
Device Operation
Commands are used to initiate the memory operation functions of the device. Commands are written to the device
using standard microprocessor write sequences. A command is written by asserting WE# low while keeping CE#
low. The address bus is latched on the falling edge of WE#
or CE#, whichever occurs last. The data bus is latched on
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever occurs first.
Concurrent Read/Write Operation
Dual bank architecture of SST36VF1601 device allows the
Concurrent Read/Write operation whereby the user can
read from one bank while program or erase in the other
bank. This operation can be used when the user needs to
read system code in one bank while updating data in the
other bank.
Sector- (Block-) Erase Operation
The Sector- (Block-) Erase operation allows the system to
erase the device on a sector-by-sector (or block-by-block)
basis. The SST36VF1601 offers both Sector-Erase and
Block-Erase mode. The sector architecture is based on
uniform sector size of 1 KWord. The Block-Erase mode is
based on uniform block size of 32 KWord. The SectorErase operation is initiated by executing a six-byte command sequence with Sector-Erase command (30H) and
sector address (SA) in the last bus cycle. The Block-Erase
operation is initiated by executing a six-byte command
sequence with Block-Erase command (50H) and block
address (BA) in the last bus cycle. The sector or block
address is latched on the falling edge of the sixth WE#
pulse, while the command (30H or 50H) is latched on the
rising edge of the sixth WE# pulse. The internal Erase
operation begins after the sixth WE# pulse. See Figures 10
and 11 for timing waveforms. Any commands issued during
the Sector- or Block-Erase operation are ignored.

Note: For the purposes of this table, write means to perform Block-,

Read Operation
The Read operation of the SST36VF1601 is controlled
by CE# and OE#, both have to be low for the system to
obtain data from the outputs. CE# is used for device
selection. When CE# is high, the chip is deselected
and only standby power is consumed. OE# is the output control and is used to gate data on the output pins.
Chip-Erase Operation
The SST36VF1601 provides a Chip-Erase operation,
which allows the user to erase all unprotected sectors/
blocks to the “1” state. This is useful when the device must
be quickly erased.

Data Sheet
The Chip-Erase operation is initiated by executing a sixbyte command sequence with Chip-Erase command (10H)
at address 5555H in the last byte sequence. The Erase
operation begins with the rising edge of the sixth WE# or
CE#, whichever occurs first. During the Erase operation,
the only valid Read is Toggle Bit or Data# Polling. See
Table 4 for the command sequence, Figure 9 for timing diagram, and Figure 22 for the flowchart. Any commands
issued during the Chip-Erase operation are ignored.
‘1’. The Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of fourth
WE# (or CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector-,
Block-, or Chip-Erase, the Data# Polling is valid after the
rising edge of sixth WE# (or CE#) pulse. See Figure 7 for
Data# Polling (DQ7) timing diagram and Figure 20 for a
flowchart. There is a 1 µs bus recovery time (TBR) required
before valid data can be read on the data bus. New commands can be entered immediately after DQ7 becomes
true data.
Write Operation Status Detection
Toggle Bit (DQ6)
The SST36VF1601 provides one hardware and two software means to detect the completion of a Write (Program
or Erase) cycle, in order to optimize the system Write cycle
time. The hardware detection uses the Ready/Busy# (RY/
BY#) output pin. The software detection includes two status
bits: Data# Polling (DQ7) and Toggle Bit (DQ6). The End-ofWrite detection mode is enabled after the rising edge of
WE#, which initiates the internal Program or Erase operation.
During the internal Program or Erase operation, any consecutive attempts to read DQ6 will produce alternating 1s
and 0s, i.e., toggling between 1 and 0. When the internal
Program or Erase operation is completed, the DQ6 bit will
stop toggling. The Toggle Bit is valid after the rising edge of
fourth WE# (or CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector-, Block- or Chip-Erase, the Toggle Bit is valid after the
rising edge of sixth WE# (or CE#) pulse. See Figure 8 for
Toggle Bit timing diagram and Figure 20 for a flowchart.
There is a 1 µs bus recovery time (TBR) required before
valid data can be read on the data bus. New commands
can be entered immediately after DQ6 no longer toggles.
The actual completion of the nonvolatile write is asynchronous with the system; therefore, either a Ready/Busy# (RY/
BY#), a Data# Polling (DQ7) or Toggle Bit (DQ6) read may
be simultaneous with the completion of the Write cycle. If
this occurs, the system may possibly get an erroneous
result, i.e., valid data may appear to conflict with either DQ7
or DQ6. In order to prevent spurious rejection, if an erroneous result occurs, the software routine should include a
loop to read the accessed location an additional two (2)
times. If both reads are valid, then the device has completed the Write cycle, otherwise the rejection is valid.
Data Protection
The SST36VF1601 provides both hardware and software
features to protect nonvolatile data from inadvertent writes.
Hardware Data Protection
Noise/Glitch Protection: A WE# or CE# pulse of less than 5
ns will not initiate a Write cycle.
Ready/Busy# (RY/BY#)
VDD Power Up/Down Detection: The Write operation is
inhibited when VDD is less than 1.5V.
The SST36VF1601 includes a Ready/Busy# (RY/BY#)
output signal. RY/BY# is actively pulled low while during an
internal Erase or Program operation is in progress. RY/BY#
is an open drain output that allows several devices to be
tied in parallel to VDD via an external pull up resistor. RY/
BY# is high impedance whenever CE# is high or RST# is
low. There is a 1 µs bus recovery time (TBR) required before
valid data can be read on the data bus. New commands
can be entered immediately after RY/BY# goes high.
Write Inhibit Mode: Forcing OE# low, CE# high, or WE#
high will inhibit the Write operation. This prevents inadvertent writes during power-up or power-down.
Hardware Block Protection
The SST36VF1601 provides a hardware block protection
which protects the outermost 4 KWord in the larger bank.
The block is protected when WP# is held low. See Figure 1
for Block-Protection location.
Data# Polling (DQ7)
A user can disable block protection by driving WP# high
thus allowing erase or program of data into the protected
sectors. WP# must be held high prior to issuing the write
command and remain stable until after the entire Write
operation has completed.
When the SST36VF1601 is in the internal Program operation, any attempt to read DQ7 will produce the complement
of the true data. Once the Program operation is completed,
DQ7 will produce true data. During internal Erase operation, any attempt to read DQ7 will produce a ‘0’. Once the
internal Erase operation is completed, DQ7 will produce a

sequence. Once the device enters the CFI Query mode,
the system can read CFI data at the addresses given in
Tables 5 through 7. The system must write the CFI Exit
command to return to Read mode from the CFI Query
mode.
The RST# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the
device to read array data. When the RST# pin is held low
for at least TRP, any in-progress operation will terminate and
return to Read mode (see Figure 16). When no internal
Program/Erase operation is in progress, a minimum period
of TRHR is required after RST# is driven high before a valid
Read can take place (see Figure 15).
Product Identification
The Product Identification mode identifies the device and
manufacturer. For details, see Table 4 for software operation, Figure 12 for the Software ID Entry and Read timing
diagram and Figure 21 for the Software ID Entry command
sequence flowchart.
The Erase operation that has been interrupted needs to be
reinitiated after the device resumes normal operation mode
to ensure data integrity.
Software Data Protection (SDP)
TABLE 1: PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
The SST36VF1601 provides the JEDEC standard Software Data Protection scheme for all data alteration operations, i.e., Program and Erase. Any Program operation
requires the inclusion of the three-byte sequence. The
three-byte load sequence is used to initiate the Program
operation, providing optimal protection from inadvertent
Write operations, e.g., during the system power-up or
power-down. Any Erase operation requires the inclusion of
six-byte sequence. The SST36VF1601 is shipped with the
Software Data Protection permanently enabled. See Table
4 for the specific software command codes. During SDP
command sequence, invalid commands will abort the
device to Read mode within TRC. The contents of DQ15DQ8 can be VIL or VIH, but no other value during any SDP
command sequence.

Product Identification Mode
Exit/CFI Mode Exit
In order to return to the standard Read mode, the Software Product Identification mode must be exited. Exit is
accomplished by issuing the Software ID Exit command
sequence, which returns the device to the Read mode.
This command may also be used to reset the device to the
Read mode after any inadvertent transient condition that
apparently causes the device to behave abnormally, e.g.,
not read correctly. Please note that the Software ID Exit/
CFI Exit command is ignored during an internal Program
or Erase operation. See Table 4 for the software command
code, Figure 14 for timing waveform and Figure 21 for a
flowchart.
Common Flash Memory Interface (CFI)
The SST36VF1601 also contains the CFI information to
describe the characteristics of the device. In order to enter
the CFI Query mode, the system must write three-byte
sequence, same as Software ID Entry command with 98H
(CFI Query command) to address 5555H in the last byte
