SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
See Figure 2 Logic Diagram and Table 1,Signal
Names, for a brief overview of the signals connect-
ed to this devi ce.
Address Inputs (A0-A17). Addresses A0-A17
are common inputs for the Flash and the SRAM
components. The Address Inputs select the cells
in the memory array to access during Bus Read
operations. During Bus Write operations they con-
trol the commands sent to the Comm and Inte rface
of the internal stat e machine. The Flash memory is
accessed through the Chip Enable (EF) and Write
Enable (W) signals, while the SRAM is accessed
through two Chip Enable signals (E1S and E2S)
and the Write Enable signal (W).
Address Inputs (A18-A20). Addresses A18-A20
are inputs for the Flash component only. The
Flash memory is accessed through the Chip En-
able (EF) and Write Enable (W) signal s
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). The Data I/O
outputs the data stored at the selected address
during a Bus Read operation. During Bus Write
operations they represent the commands sent to
the Command Interface of the Program/Erase
Controller.
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ8-DQ14). The Data I/O
outputs the data stored at the selected address
during a Bus Re ad operation when B Y TE is High,
VIH. When BYTE is Low, VIL, these pins are not
used and are high impedance. During Bus Write
operations the Command Register does not use
these bits. When reading the Status Register
these bits should be ignored.
Data Input/Output or Address Input (DQ15A–
1). When B YTE is High, VIH, this p in behav es as
a Data Input/Output pin (as DQ8-DQ14). When
BYTE is Low, VIL, this pin behaves as an address
pin; DQ15A–1 Low will select the LSB of the ad-
dressed Word, DQ15A–1 High will select the MSB.
Throughout the text consider references to the
Data Input/Output to include this pin when BYTE is
High and references to the Address Inputs to in-
clude this pin when BYTE is Low except when
stated explicitly otherwise.
Flash Chi p Enable (EF). The Chip Enable input
activates the memory control logic, input buffers,
decoders and sense amplifiers. When Chip En-
able is at V ILand RPF is at VIH the device is in ac-
tive mode. When Chip Enable is at VIH the
memory is deselected, the outputs are high imped-
ance and the power consumption is reduced to the
st a n d-by le vel.
Output Enable (G). The Output Enable, G, con-
trols the Bus Read operat ion of the device.
Write Enable (W). T he Write Enable, W, controls
the Bus Write operation of the de vic e.
VPP/Wr ite Protect (VPP/WP). The VPP/Write
Protect pin provides two functions. The VPP func -
tion a llo ws the Flash memory to use an exte rnal
high voltage power supply to reduce the time re-
quired for Program operations. This is achieved
by bypassing the unlock cycles and/or using the
Double Word or Quadruple Byte Program com-
mands. The Write Protect function provides a
hardware method of protecting the two outermost
boot blocks in th e Flash memory.
When V PP/W rite Protect is Low, VIL, the memory
protects the two outermost boot blocks; Program
and Erase operation s in these blocks are ig nored
while VPP/Write Protect is Low, even when RPF is
at VID.
When VPP/Write Protect is High, VIH, the memory
reverts to the previ ous protection status of the two
out erm os t boot bl ock s . Program and Erase oper-
ations can now modify the data in t hese blocks un-
less the blocks are protected using Block
Protection.
When VPP/Write Protect is rais ed t o VPP the mem-
ory automat ically enters t he Unloc k B ypass mode.
When V PP/Write Pro tect returns to VIH or VIL nor-
mal operation resumes. During Unlock Bypass
Program operations the memory draws IPP from
the pin to supply the programming circuits. See the
M29DW32 3D datasheet for more details.
Reset/Block Temp orary Unprotect (RP F). The
Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect pin can be
used to apply a Hardware Reset to the mem ory or
to temporarily unprot ect al l Blocks that have b een
protected.
Note th at i f VPP/WP is at VIL, then the two outer-
most boot blocks will remain protected even if RPF
is at VID.
A Hardware Reset is achieved by holding Reset/
Block Temporary Unprotect Low, VIL, for at least
tPLPX. After Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect
goes High, V IH, the memory will be read y for Bus
Read and Bus Write operations after tPHEL or
tRHEL, whichever occurs last. See the
M29DW32 3D datasheet for more details.
Holding RPF at VID will temporarily unprotect the
protected Blocks in the memory. Program and
Erase operations on all blocks will be possible.
The transition from VIH to VID must be slower than
tPHPHH.
Ready/Busy Output (RB). The Ready/Busy pin
is an open-drain output that can be used to ident ify
when the Flash mem ory is p erforming a Program
or Erase operation. During Program or Erase op-
erations Ready/Busy is Low, VOL. Ready/Busy is
high-impedance during Read mode, Auto Select
mode and Erase Suspend m ode.
