General Description
The ACT–F128K8 is a high
speed, 1 megabit CMOS
monolithic Flash module
designed for full temperature
range military, space, or high
reliability applications.
This device is input TTL and
output CMOS compatible. The
command register is written by
bringing write enable (WE
chip enable (CE
) to a logic low
level and output enable (OE
logic high level. Reading is
accomplished when WE
and CE
, OE are both low, see
Figure9. Access time grades of
60ns, 70ns, 90ns, 120ns and
150ns maximum are standard.
hermetically sealed ceramic packages; a
32 lead .82" x .41" x .125"flat package in
both formed or unformed leads or a 32 pin
1.6"x.60" x.20" DIP package for operation
over the temperature range -55°C to
+125°C and military environmental
conditions.
The flash memory is organized as
128Kx8 bits and is designed to be
programmed in-system with the standard
system 5.0V Vcc supply. A 12.0V V
PP is
not required for write or erase operations.
The device can also be reprogrammed with
standard EPROM programmers (with the
proper socket).
The standard ACT–F128K8 offers
access times between 60ns and 150ns,
allowing operation of high-speed
microprocessors without wait states. To
eliminate bus contention, the device has
separate chip enable (CE
) and output enable (OE) controls. The
(WE
), write enable
ACT–F128K8 is command set compatible
with JEDEC standard 1 Mbit EEPROMs.
Commands are written to the command
register using standard microprocessor
write timings. Register contents serve as
input to an internal state-machine which
controls the erase and programming
circuitry. Write cycles also internally latch
addresses and data needed for the
programming and erase operations.
Reading data out of the device is similar
to reading from 12.0V Flash or EPROM
devices. The ACT–F128K8 is programmed
by executing the program command
sequence. This will invoke the Embedded
Program Algorithm which is an internal
algorithm that automatically times the
program pulse widths and verifies proper
cell margin. Typically, each sector can be
programmed and verified in less than 0.3
second. Erase is accomplished by
executing the erase command sequence.
This will invoke the Embedded Erase
Algorithm which is an internal algorithm
that automatically preprograms the array, (if
it is not already programmed before)
executing the erase operation. During
erase, the device automatically times the
erase pulse widths and verifies proper cell
margin.
Also the device features a sector erase
architecture. The sector mode allows for
16K byte blocks of memory to be erased
and reprogrammed without affecting other
blocks. The ACT-F128K8 is erased when
shipped from the factory.
The device features single 5.0V power
supply operation for both read and write
functions. lnternally generated and
regulated voltages are provided for the
program and erase operations. A low V
CC
detector automatically inhibits write
operations on the loss of power. The end of
program or erase is detected by Data
Polling of D7 or by the Toggle Bit feature on
D6. Once the end of a program or erase
cycle has been completed, the device
internally resets to the read mode.
All bits of each die, or all bits within a
sector of a die, are erased via
Fowler-Nordhiem tunneling. Bytes are
programmed one byte at a time by hot
electron injection.
A DESC Standard Military Drawing
(SMD) number is pending.

Device Operation
The ACT-F128K8 Monolithic module is composed of one,
1 megabit flash EEPROM.
Programming of the ACT-F128K8 is accomplished by
executing the program command sequence. The
program algorithm, which is an internal algorithm,
automatically times the program pulse widths and
verifies proper cell status. Sectors can be programed
and verified in less than 0.3 second. Erase is
accomplished by executing the erase command
sequence. The erase algorithm, which is internal,
automatically preprograms the array if it is not already
programed before executing the erase operation. During
erase, the device automatically times the erase pulse
widths and verifies proper cell status. The entire
memory is typically erased and verified in 3 seconds
(ifpre-programmed). The sector mode allows for 16K
byte blocks of memory to be erased and reprogrammed
without affecting other blocks.
Bus Operation
programming, the device will draw active current until the
operation is completed.
WRITE
Device erasure and programming are accomplished via
the command register. The contents of the register
serve as input to the internal state machine. The state
machine outputs dictate the function of the device.
The command register itself does not occupy an
addressable memory location. The register is a latch
used to store the command, along with address and data
information needed to execute the command. The
command register is written by bringing WE
low level (V
IL), while CE is low and OE is at VIH.
Addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE
whichever happens later. Data is latched on the rising
edge of the WE
or CE whichever occurs first. Standard
microprocessor write timings are used. Refer to AC
Program Characteristics and Waveforms, Figures 3,
8and13.
to a logic
or CE,
READ
The ACT-F128K8 has two control functions, both of
which must be logically active, to obtain data at the
outputs. Chip Enable (CE
) is the power control and
should be used for device selection. Output-Enable (OE
is the output control and should be used to gate data to
the output pins of the chip selected. Figure 7 illustrates
AC read timing waveforms.
OUTPUT DISABLE
With Output-Enable at a logic high level (VIH), output
from the device is disabled. Output pins are placed in a
high impedance state.
STANDBY MODE
The ACT-F128K8 has two standby modes, a CMOS
standby mode (CE
current consumed is typically less than 400 µA; and a
TTL standby mode (CE
mA. In the standby mode the outputs are in a high
impedance state, independent of the OE

input held at Vcc + 0.5V), where the

Command Definitions
Device operations are selected by writing specific
address and data sequences into the command register.
Table 3 defines these register command sequences.
)
READ/RESET COMMAND
The read or reset operation is initiated by writing the
read/reset command sequence into the command
register. Microprocessor read cycles retrieve array data
from the memory. The device remains enabled for reads
until the command register contents are altered.
The device will automatically power-up in the read/reset
state. In this case, a command sequence is not required
to read data. Standard microprocessor read cycles will
retrieve array data. The device will automatically
power-up in the read/reset state. In this case, a
command sequence is not required to read data.
Standard Microprocessor read cycles will retrieve array
data. This default value ensures that no spurious
alteration of the memory content occurs during the
power transition. Refer to the AC Read Characteristics
and Figure 7 for the specific timing parameters.

Erase Algorithm command sequence (Figure 4) the
device will automatically program and verify the entire
memory for an all zero data pattem prior to electrical
erase. The erase is performed concurrently on all
sectors at the same time . The system is not required to
provide any controls or timings during these operations.
Note: Post Erase data state is all "1"s.
The automatic erase begins on the rising edge of the last
WE
pulse in the command sequence and terminates
when the data on D7 is "1" (see Write Operation Status

The automatic programming operation is completed
when the data on D
7 (also used as Data Polling) is
equivalent to data written to this bit at which time the
device returns to the read mode and addresses are no
longer latched. Therefore, the device requires that a
valid address be supplied by the system at this particular
instance of time for Data
Polling operations. Data Polling
must be performed at the memory location which is
being programmed.
Any commands written to the chip during the Embedded
Program Algorithm will be ignored.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across
sector boundaries. Beware that a data "0" cannot be
programmed back to a “1". Attempting to do so may
cause the device to exceed programming time limits (D5
= 1) or result in an apparent success, according to the
data polling algorithm, but a read from reset/read mode
will show that the data is still “0". Only erase operations
can convert “0"s to “1"s.
Figure 3 illustrates the programming algorithm using
typical command strings and bus operations.
CHIP ERASE
Chip erase is a six bus cycle operation. There are two
'unlock' write cycles. These are followed by writing the
“set-up” command. Two more “unlock” write cycles are
then followed by the chip erase command.
Chip erase does not require the user to program the
SECTOR ERASE
Sector erase is a six bus cycle operation. There are two
"unlock" write cycles. These are followed by writing the
"setup" command. Two more "unlock" write cycles are
then followed by the sector erase command. The sector
address (any address location within the desired sector)
is latched on the falling edge of WE
(30H) is latched on the rising edge of WE
time-out of 80µs from the rising edge of the last sector
erase command, the sector erase operation will begin.
Multiple sectors may be erased concurrently by writing
the six bus cycle operations as described above. This
sequence is followed with writes of the sector erase
command to addresses in other sectors desired to be
concurrently erased. The time between writes must be
less than 80µs otherwise that command will not be
accepted and erasure will start. It is recommended that
processor interrupts be disabled during this time to
guarantee this condition. The interrupts can be
re-enabled after the last Sector Erase command is
written. A time-out of 80µs from the rising edge of the
last WE
will initiate the execution of the Sector Erase
command(s). If another falling edge of the WE
within the 80µs time-out window the timer is reset.
(Monitor D3 to determine if the sector erase timer
window is still open, see section D3, Sector Erase
Timer.) Any commarid other than Sector Erase during
this period will reset the device to read mode, ignoring
the previous command string. In that case, restart the
erase on those sectors and allow them to complete.

Loading the sector erase buffer may be done in any
sequence and with any number of sectors (0 to 7).
Sector erase does not require the user to program the
device prior to erase. The device automatically
programs all memory locations in the sector(s) to be
erased prior to electrical erase. When erasing a sector
or sectors the remaining unselected sectors are not
affected. The system is not required to provide any
controls or timings during these operations. Post Erase
data state is all "1"s.

Data Protection
The ACT-F128K8 is designed to offer protection against
accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious
system level singles that may exist during power
transitions. During power up the device automatically
resets the internal state machine in the read mode. Also,
with its control register architecture, alteration of the
memory content only occurs after successful completion
of specific multi-bus cycle command sequences.
The device also incorporates several features to prevent
inadvertent write cycles resulting from Vcc power-up and
power-down transitions or system noise.

TOGGLE BIT
The ACT-F128K8 also features the "Toggle Bit" as a
method to indicate to the host system that algorithms are
in progress or completed.
During a program or erase algorithm cycle, successive
attempts to read data from the device will result in D
toggling between one and zero. Once the program or
erase algorithm cycle is completed, D
and valid data will be read on successive attempts.
During programming the Toggle Bit is valid after the
rising edge of the fourth WE
sequence. For chip erase the Toggle Bit is valid after the
rising edge of the sixth
sequence. For Sector erase, the Toggle Bit is valid after
the last rising edge of the sector erase
