M59DR032EA Datasheet, PDF (5/43 Pages) STMicroelectronics – 32 Mbit (2Mb x 16, Dual Bank, Page ) 1.8V Supply Flash Memory
M59DR032EA, M59DR032EB
SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M59DR032E is a 32 Mbit (2Mbit x16) non-vol-
atile Flash memory that may be erased electrically
at block level and programmed in-system on a
Word-by-Word basis using a 1.65V to 2.2V VDD
supply for the circuitry and a 1.65V to 2.2V VDDQ
supply for the Input/Output pins. An optional 12V
VPP power supply is provided to speed up custom-
er programming.
The device features an asymmetrical block archi-
tecture. M59DR032E has an array of 71 blocks
and is divided into two banks, Banks A and B, pro-
viding Dual Bank operations. While programming
or erasing in Bank A, read operations are possible
in Bank B or vice versa. Only one bank at a time is
allowed to be in program or erase mode. The bank
architecture is summarized in Table 2, and the
Block Addresses are shown in Appendix A. The
Parameter Blocks are located at the top of the
memory address space for the M59DR032EA,
and at the bottom for the M59DR032EB.
Each block can be erased separately. Erase can
be suspended, in order to perform either read or
program in any other block, and then resumed.
Each block can be programmed and erased over
100,000 cycles.
Program and Erase commands are written to the
Command Interface of the memory. An internal
Program/Erase Controller takes care of the tim-
ings necessary for program and erase operations.
The end of a program or erase operation can be
detected and any error conditions identified in the
Status Register. The command set required to
control the memory is consistent with JEDEC stan-
dards.
The M59DR032E features an instant, individual
block locking scheme that allows any block to be
locked or unlocked with no latency, enabling in-
stant code and data protection. All blocks have two
levels of protection. They can be individually
locked and locked-down preventing any acciden-
tal programming or erasure. All blocks are locked
at Power Up and Reset.
The device includes a 128 bit Protection Register
and a Security Block to increase the protection of
a system’s design. The Protection Register is di-
vided into two 64 bit segments. The first segment
contains a unique device number written by ST,
while the second one is one-time-programmable
by the user. The user programmable segment can
be permanently protected. The Security Block, pa-
rameter block 0, can be permanently protected by
the user. Figure 4, shows the Security Block and
Protection Register Memory Map.
The device is available in TFBGA48 (7 x 12mm
and 7 x 7mm, 0.75mm pitch) packages and it is
supplied with all the bits erased (set to ‘1’).
