Product Description
The SST39LF010, SST39LF020, SST39LF040 and SST39VF010, SST39VF020, SST39VF040 are
128K x8, 256K x8 and 5124K x8 CMOS Multi-Purpose Flash (MPF) manufactured with SST’s proprie-
tary, high performance CMOS SuperFlash technology. The split-gate cell design and thick-oxide tun-
neling injector attain better reliability and manufacturability compared with alter nate approaches. The
SST39LF010/020/040 devices write (Program or Erase) with a 3.0-3.6V power supply. The
SST39VF010/020/040 devices write with a 2.7-3.6V power supply. The devices conform to JEDEC
standard pinouts for x8 memories.
Featuring high performance Byte-Program, the SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040
devices provide a maximum Byte-Program time of 20 µsec. These devices use Toggle Bit or Data#
Polling to indicate the completion of Program operation. To protect against inadvertent write, they have
on-chip hardware and Software Data Protection schemes. Designed, manufactured, and tested for a
wide spectrum of applications , the y ar e offered with a guaranteed typi cal endura nce of 100,000 cycles .
Data retention is rated at greater than 100 years.
The SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 devices are suited for applications that require
convenient and economical updating of program, configuration, or data memor y. For all system appli-
cations, they significantly improves performance and reliability, while lowering power consumption.
They inherently use 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. These de vices also impro v e fle xibility while lo wering the cost for program, data, and
configuration storage ap p licat ion s.
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 Pro-
gram times increase with accumulated Erase/Pro gram cycles.
To meet surface mount requirements, the SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 devices
are offered in 32-lead PLCC and 32-lead TSOP packages. See Figures 2 and 3 for pin assignments.

Data Sheet
Device Operation
Commands are used to initiate the memor y operation functions of the device. Commands are written
to the de vice using standard micro processor write sequences. A command is written b y 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.
Read
The Read operation of the SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 devices are 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 from the output pins. The data bu s is in high impedance
state when either CE# or OE# is high. Ref er to the Read cycle timing diagram f or further details (Figure
4).
Byte-Program Operation
The SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 are programmed on a byte-by-byte basis.
Before programming, the sector where the byte exists must be fully erased. The Program operation is
accomplished in three steps. The first step is the three-byte load sequence for Software Data Protec-
tion. The second step is to load byte address and byte data. During the Byte-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 af ter the r ising edge of the four th WE# or CE#, which ever occurs
first. The Program operation, once initiated, will be completed, within 20 µs. See Figures 5 and 6 for
WE# and CE# controlled Program operation timing diagrams and Figure 15 for flowchar ts. During the
Program operation, the only valid reads are Data# Polling and Toggle Bit. During the internal Program
operation, the host is free to perfor m additional tasks. Any commands written during the internal Pro-
gram operation will be ignored.
Sector-Erase Operation
The Sector-Erase operation allows the system to erase the device on a sector-by-sector basis. The
sector architecture is based on unifor m sector size of 4 KByte. The Sector-Erase 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 sector address is latched on the falling edge of the sixth WE# pulse,
while the command (30H) is latched on the rising edge of the sixth WE# pulse. The internal Erase
operation begins after the sixth WE# pulse. The End-of-Erase can be determined using either Data#
Polling or Toggle Bit methods. See Figure 9 for timing waveforms. Any commands written during the
Sector-Erase operation will be ignored.
Chip-Erase Operation
The SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 devices provide a Chip-Erase operation, which
allows the user to erase the entire memory array to the ‘1’s state . This is useful when the entire device
must be quickly erased.
The Chip-Erase operation is initiated by executing a six- byte Software Data Protection command
sequence with Chip-Er ase command (10H) wit h address 5555H in t he last b yte sequence . The int ernal
Erase oper ation begins with the rising edge of the sixt h WE# or CE#, whiche v e r occurs first. During the

Data Sheet
internal Erase operation, the only valid read is Toggle Bit or Data# Polling. See Table 4 for the com-
mand sequence, Figure 10 for timing diagram, and Figure 18 for the flowchar t. Any commands written
during the Chip-Erase operation will be ignored.
Write Operation Status Detection
The SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 devices provide two software means to detect
the completion of a Write (Program or Erase) cycle, in order to optimize the system write cycle time.
The softw are det ection includes tw o st atus bits : Data# Polling (DQ7) and Toggle Bit (DQ6). The End-of -
Write detection mode is enabled after the rising edge of WE# which initiates the internal Program or
Erase operation.
The actual completion of the nonvolatile write is asynchronous with the system; therefore, either a
Data# Polling or Toggle Bit 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# Polling (DQ7)
When the SST39LF010/ 020/ 040 an d SST39VF01 0/020/ 040 ar e in the internal Progr am ope r atio n, any
attempt to read DQ7 will produce the complement of the true data. Once the Program operation is
completed, DQ7 will produce true data. Note that even though DQ7 may have valid data immediately
f ollowing completion of an internal Write oper ation, the remaining data outputs may still be in v alid: v alid
data on the entire data bus will appear in subsequent successive Read cycles after an interval of 1 µs.
During internal Erase operation, any attempt to read DQ7 will produce a “0”. Once the internal Erase
operatio n is comple ted, DQ7 will produce a “1”. The Data# Polling is v alid after the rising edge of f ourth
WE# (or CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector - or Chip-Erase, the Data# Polling is valid after
the rising edge of sixth WE# (or CE#) pulse. See Figure 7 for Data# Polling timing diagram and Figure
16 for a flowchart.
Toggle Bit (DQ6)
During the internal Program or Erase operation, any consecutive attempts to read DQ6 will produce
alternating ‘0’s and ‘1’s, i.e., toggling between 0 and 1. When the internal Program or Erase operation
is completed, the toggling will stop. The device is then ready for the next operation. The Toggle Bit is
valid after the rising edge of fourth WE# (or CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector- 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 an d Figure 16 for a flowchart.
Data Protection
The SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/ 040 provide 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.
VDD Power Up/Down Detection: The Write operation is inhibited when VDD is less than 1.5V.
Write Inhibit Mode: Forcing OE# low, CE# high, or WE# high will inhibit the Write operation. This pre-
vents inadvertent writes during power-up or power-down .

Data Sheet
Software Data Protection (SDP)
The SST39LF010/020/040 and SST39VF010/020/040 provide the JEDEC approved Software Data
Protection scheme for all data alteration operation, i.e., Program and Erase. Any Program operation
requires the inclusion of a series of three-byte sequence. The three-byte load sequence is used to ini-
tiate the Program operation, providing optimal protection from inadver tent Write operations, e.g., dur-
ing the system power-up or power-down. Any Erase operation requires the inclusion of six-byte load
sequence. These devices are shipped with the Software Data Protection permanently enabled. See
Table 4 for the specific softw a re command codes . During SDP comma nd sequence, inv alid commands
will abort the device to read mode, within TRC.
Product Identification
The Product Identification mode identifies the devices as the SST39LF/VF010, SST39LF/VF020, and
SST39LF/VF040 and manufacturer as SST. This mode may be accessed by software operations.
Users may use the Software Product Identification op eration to identify the p ar t (i.e., using the device
ID) when using multiple manufacturers in the same socket. For details, see Table 4 for software opera-
tion, Figure 11 for the Software ID Entry and Read timing diagram, and Figure 17 for the Software ID
entry command sequence flowchart.
Product Identification Mode Exit/Reset
In order to retu rn to the standard Read mode, t he Softwa re Product Identi fication mode m ust be e xited.
Exit is accomplished by issuing the Software ID Exit command sequence, which returns the device to
the Read operation. Please note that the Software ID Exit command is ignored during an internal Pro-
gram or Erase operation. See Table 4 for software command codes, Figure 12 for timing waveform,
and Figure 17 for a flowchart.
