GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AS29LV016J is a 16 Mbit, 3.0 Volt-only Flash memory organized as 2,097,152 bytes or 1,048,576 words. The device is offered in a 48-pin TSOP package. The word-wide data (x16) appears on DQ15–DQ0; the byte-wide (x8) data appears on DQ7–DQ0. This device is designed to be programmed in system with the standard system 3.0 volt VCC supply. A 12.0 V VPP or 5.0 VCC are not required for write or erase operations. The device can also be programmed in standard EPROM programmers.

DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS

ARCHITECTURAL ADVANTAGES

Single Power Supply Operation

   – Full voltage range: 2.7 to 3.6 volt read and write operations for battery-powered applications

Manufactured on 110 nm Process Technology

• Fully compatible with 200 nm AS29LV016

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)

Sector Group Protection Features

• A hardware method of locking a sector to prevent any program or erase operations within that sector

• Sectors can be locked in-system or via programming equipment

• Temporary Sector Unprotect feature allows code changes in previously locked sectors

Unlock Bypass Program Command

• Reduces overall programming time when issuing multiple program command sequences

Top or Bottom Boot Block Configurations Available Compatibility with JEDEC standards

• Pinout and software compatible with single-power supply Flash

• Superior inadvertent write protection

PACKAGE OPTIONS

• 48-pin TSOP

PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

  Military temperature range (–55°C to +125°C)

Ultra Low Power Consumption (typical values at 5 MHz)

• 0.2 µA Automatic Sleep mode current

• 0.2 µA standby mode current

• 7 mA read current

• 20 mA program/erase current

Cycling Endurance: 1,000,000 cycles per sector typical

Data Retention: 20 years typical

SOFTWARE FEATURES

CFI (Common Flash Interface) Compliant

• Provides device-specific information to the system, allowing host software to easily reconfigure for different Flash devices

Erase Suspend/Erase Resume

• Suspends an erase operation to read data from, or program data to, a sector that is not being erased, then resumes the erase operation

Data# Polling and Toggle Bits

Provides a software method of detecting program or erase operation completion

HARDWARE FEATURES

Ready/Busy# Pin (RY/BY#)

• Provides a hardware method of detecting program or erase cycle completion

Hardware Reset Pin (RESET#)

• Hardware method to reset the device to reading array data WP# input pin

• For boot sector devices: at VIL, protects first or last 16 Kbyte sector depending on boot configuration (top boot or bottom boot)
