featuring MirrorBitTM technology
Data Sheet
Distinctive Characteristics
DATASHEET
Architectural Advantages
„ Single power supply operation
— 3 V for read, erase, and program operations
„ Manufactured on 0.23 µm MirrorBitTM process
technology
„ SecSiTM (Secured Silicon) Sector region
— 128-word/256-byte sector for permanent, secure
identification through an 8-word/16-byte random
Electronic Serial Number, accessible through a
command sequence
— May be programmed and locked at the factory or by
the customer
„ Flexible sector architecture
— One 16 Kbyte, two 8 Kbyte, one 32 Kbyte, and thirty-
one 64 Kbyte sectors (byte mode)
— One 8 Kword, two 4 Kword, one 16 Kword, and thirty-
one 32 Kword sectors (word mode)
„ Compatibility with JEDEC standards
— Provides pinout and software compatibility for single-
power supply flash, and superior inadvertent write
protection
„ Top or bottom boot block configurations available
„ 100,000 erase cycle typical per sector
„ 20-year typical data retention
Performance Characteristics
„ High performance
— 90 ns access time
— 0.7 s typical sector erase time
„ Low power consumption (typical values at 5 MHz)
— 400 nA standby mode current
— 15 mA read current
— 40 mA program/erase current
— 400 nA Automatic Sleep mode current
„ Package options
— 48-ball Fine-pitch BGA
— 64-ball Fortified BGA
— 48-pin TSOP
Software Features
— Program Suspend & Resume: read other sectors
before programming operation is completed
— Erase Suspend & Resume: read/program other
sectors before an erase operation is completed
— Data# polling & toggle bits provide status
— Unlock Bypass Program command reduces overall
multiple-word programming time
— CFI (Common Flash Interface) compliant: allows host
system to identify and accommodate multiple flash
devices
Hardware Features
— Sector Protection: hardware-level method of
preventing write operations within a sector
— Temporary Sector Unprotect: VID-level method of
changing code in locked sectors
— Hardware reset input (RESET#) resets device
— Ready/Busy# output (RY/BY#) indicates program or
erase cycle completion
