1. Description

The AT45DB011D is a 2.7V, serial-interface Flash memory ideally suited for a wide variety of digital voice-, image-, program code- and data-storage applications. The AT45DB011D supports RapidS serial interface for applications requiring very high speed operations. RapidS serial interface is SPI compatible for frequencies up to 66 MHz. Its 1,081,344 bits of memory are organized as 512 pages of 256 bytes or 264 bytes each. In addition to the main memory, the AT45DB011D also contains one SRAM buffer of 256/264 bytes. EEPROM emulation (bit or byte alterability) is easily handled with a self-contained three step read-modify-write operation. Unlike conven­tional Flash memories that are accessed randomly with multiple address lines and a parallel interface, the DataFlash access its data. The simple sequential access dramatically reduces active pin count, facilitates hardware layout, increases system reliability, minimizes switching noise, and reduces package size.

3639B–DFLASH–02/07
The device is optimized for use in many commercial and industrial applications where high-den­sity, low-pin count, low-voltage and low-power are essential.
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the AT45DB011D does not require high input voltages for programming. The device operates from a single power supply, 2.7V to 3.6V, for both the program and read operations. The AT45DB011D is enabled through the chip select pin (CS
) and accessed via a three-wire interface consisting of the Serial Input (SI), Serial Output
(SO), and the Serial Clock (SCK).
All programming and erase cycles are self-timed.

4. Memory Array

To provide optimal flexibility, the memory array of the AT45DB011D is divided into three levels of granularity comprising of sectors, blocks, and pages. The “Memory Architecture Diagram” illus­trates the breakdown of each level and details the number of pages per sector and block. All program operations to the DataFlash occur on a page-by-page basis. The erase operations can be performed at the chip, sector, block or page level.

5. Device Operation

The device operation is controlled by instructions from the host processor. The list of instructions and their associated opcodes are contained in Tables 15-1 through 15-7. A valid instruction starts with the falling edge of CS or main memory address location. While the CS loading of the opcode and the desired buffer or main memory address location through the SI (serial input) pin. All instructions, addresses, and data are transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.

6. Read Commands

By specifying the appropriate opcode, data can be read from the main memory or from the SRAM data buffer. The DataFlash supports RapidS protocols for Mode 0 and Mode 3. Please refer to the “Detailed Bit-level Read Timing” diagrams in this datasheet for details on the clock cycle sequences for each mode.
6.1 Continuous Array Read (Legacy Command – E8H): Up to 66 MHz
By supplying an initial starting address for the main memory array, the Continuous Array Read command can be utilized to sequentially read a continuous stream of data from the device by simply providing a clock signal; no additional addressing information or control signals need to be provided. The DataFlash incorporates an internal address counter that will automatically increment on every clock cycle, allowing one continuous read operation without the need of additional address sequences. To perform a continuous read from the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), an opcode of E8H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes (which comprise the 24-bit page and byte address sequence) and 4 don’t care bytes. The first 9 bits (PA8 - PA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify which page of the main memory array to read, and the last 9 bits (BA8 - BA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within the page. To perform a continuous read from the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode (E8H) must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes and 4 don’t care bytes. The first 9 bits (A16 - A8) of the 17-bits sequence specify which page of the main memory array to read, and the last 8 bits (A7 - A0) of the 18-bits address sequence specify the starting byte address within the page. The don’t care bytes that follow the address bytes are needed to initialize the read operation. Following the don’t care bytes, additional clock pulses on the SCK pin will result in data being output on the SO (serial output) pin.

When the end of a page in main memory is reached during a Continuous Array Read, the device will continue reading at the beginning of the next page with no delays incurred during the page boundary crossover (the crossover from the end of one page to the beginning of the next page). When the last bit in the main memory array has been read, the device will continue reading back at the beginning of the first page of memory. As with cross­ing over page boundaries, no delays will be incurred when wrapping around from the end of the array to the beginning of the array.

The first 9 bits (PA8 - PA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify which page of the main memory array to read, and the last 9 bits (BA8 - BA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within the page. To perform a continuous read with the page size set to 256 bytes, the opcode, 0BH, must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes (A16 - A0) and a dummy byte.

The CS pin must remain low during the loading of the opcode, the address bytes, and the read­ing of data. When the end of a page in the main memory is reached during a Continuous Array Read, the device will continue reading at the beginning of the next page with no delays incurred during the page boundary crossover (the crossover from the end of one page to the beginning of the next page). When the last bit in the main memory array has been read, the device will con­tinue reading back at the beginning of the first page of memory. As with crossing over page boundaries, no delays will be incurred when wrapping around from the end of the array to the beginning of the array.

6.3 Continuous Array Read (Low Frequency Mode: 03H): Up to 33 MHz

This command can be used with the serial interface to read the main memory array sequentially without a dummy byte up to maximum frequencies specified by f read array with the page size set to 264 bytes, the CS 03H, must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes (which comprise the 24-bit page and byte address sequence). The first 9 bits (PA8 - PA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify which page of the main memory array to read, and the last 9 bits (BA8 - BA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within the page. To perform a contin­uous read with the page size set to 256 bytes, the opcode, 03H, must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes (A16 - A0).

When the end of a page in the main memory is reached during a Continuous Array Read, the device will continue reading at the beginning of the next page with no delays incurred during the page boundary crossover (the crossover from the end of one page to the beginning of the next page). When the last bit in the main memory array has been read, the device will con­tinue reading back at the beginning of the first page of memory. As with crossing over page boundaries, no delays will be incurred when wrapping around from the end of the array to the beginning of the array. A low-to-high transition on the CS pin will terminate the read operation and tri-state the output pin (SO). The Continuous Array Read bypasses the data buffer and leaves the contents of the buffer unchanged.

6.4 Main Memory Page Read

A main memory page read allows the user to read data directly from any one of the 2,048 pages in the main memory, bypassing the data buffer and leaving the contents of the buffer unchanged. To start a page read from the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), an opcode of D2H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes (which comprise the 24-bit page and byte address sequence) and 4 don’t care bytes. The first 9 bits (PA8 - PA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify the page in main memory to be read, and the last 9 bits (BA8 - BA0) of the 18-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within that page. To start a page read from the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode D2H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes and 4 don’t care bytes. The first 9 bits (A16 - A8) of the 17-bit sequence specify which page of the main memory array to read, and the last 8 bits (A7 - A0) of the 17-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within the page. The don’t care bytes that follow the address bytes are sent to initialize the read operation. Following the don’t care bytes, additional pulses on SCK result in data being output on the SO (serial output) pin. The CS bytes, the don’t care bytes, and the reading of data.

A low-to-high transition on the CS maximum SCK frequency allowable for the Main Memory Page Read is defined by the f specification. The Main Memory Page Read bypasses the data buffer and leaves the contents of the buffer unchanged.
The SRAM data buffer can be accessed independently from the main memory array, and utiliz­ing the Buffer Read Command allows data to be sequentially read directly from the buffer. Two opcodes, D4H or D1H, can be used for the Buffer Read Command. The use of each opcode depends on the maximum SCK frequency that will be used to read data from the buffer. The D4H opcode can be used at any SCK frequency up to the maximum specified by f opcode can be used for lower frequency read operations up to the maximum specified by f
To perform a buffer read from the DataFlash standard buffer (264 bytes), the opcode must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes comprised of 15 don’t care bits and 9 buffer address bits (BFA8 - BFA0).

7. Program and Erase Commands

7.1 Buffer Write

Data can be clocked in from the input pin (SI) into the buffer. To load data into the DataFlash standard buffer (264 bytes), a 1-byte opcode, 84H, must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes comprised of 15 don’t care bits and 9 buffer address bits (BFA8 - BFA0). The 9 buffer address bits specify the first byte in the buffer to be written. To load data into the binary buffers (256 bytes each), a 1-byte opcode, 84H, must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes comprised of 16 don’t care bits and 8 buffer address bits (BFA7 - BFA0). The 8 buffer address bits specify the first byte in the buffer to be written. After the last address byte has been clocked into the device, data can then be clocked in on subsequent clock cycles. If the end of the data buffer is reached, the device will wrap around back to the beginning of the buffer. Data will continue to be loaded into the buffer until a low-to-high transition is detected on the CS

7.2 Buffer to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase

Data written into the buffer can be programmed into the main memory. A 1-byte opcode, 83H, must be clocked into the device. For the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), the opcode must be followed by three address bytes consist of 5 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (PA8 - PA0) that specify the page in the main memory to be written and 9 don’t care bits. To per­form a buffer to main memory page program with built-in erase for the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 83H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consist­ing of 7 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) that specify the page in the main memory to be written and 8 don’t care bits.

7.3 Buffer to Main Memory Page Program without Built-in Erase

A previously-erased page within main memory can be programmed with the contents of the buffer. A 1-byte opcode, 88H, must be clocked into the device. For the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), the opcode must be followed by three address bytes consist of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (PA8 - PA0) that specify the page in the main memory to be written and 9 don’t care bits. To perform a buffer to main memory page program without built-in erase for the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 88H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consisting of 7 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) that specify the page in the main memory to be written and 8 don’t care bits. When a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS
pin, the part will program the data stored in the buffer into the specified page in the main memory. It is necessary that the page in main memory that is being programmed has been previously erased using one of the erase commands (Page Erase or Block Erase). The programming of the page is internally self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of t During this time, the status register will indicate that the part is busy.

7.4 Page Erase

The Page Erase command can be used to individually erase any page in the main memory array allowing the Buffer to Main Memory Page Program to be utilized at a later time. To perform a page erase in the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), an opcode of 81H must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (PA8 - PA0) that specify the page in the main memory to be erased and 9 don’t care bits. To perform a page erase in the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 81H must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes consist of 7 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) that specify the page in the main memory to be erased and 8 don’t care bits.

AT45DB011D [Preliminary]
A block of eight pages can be erased at one time. This command is useful when large amounts of data has to be written into the device. This will avoid using multiple Page Erase Commands. To perform a block erase for the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), an opcode of 50H must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 6 don’t care bits, 6 page address bits (PA8 -PA3) and 12 don’t care bits. The 6 page address bits are used to specify which block of eight pages is to be erased. To perform a block erase for the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 50H must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes consisting of 7 don’t care bits, 6 page address bits (A16 - A11) and 11 don’t care bits.

7.6 Sector Erase

The Sector Erase command can be used to individually erase any sector in the main memory. There are 4 sectors and only one sector can be erased at one time. To perform sector 0a or sec­tor 0b erase for the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), an opcode of 7CH must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 5 don’t care bits, 7 page address bits (PA9 - PA3) and 12 don’t care bits. To perform a sector 1-3 erase, the opcode 7CH must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 6 don’t care bits, 2 page address bits (PA8 - PA7) and 16 don’t care bits. To perform sector 0a or sector 0b erase for the binary page size (256 bytes), an opcode of 7CH must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 6 don’t care bits and 7 page address bits (A17 - A11) and 11 don’t care bits. To perform a sector 1-3 erase, the opcode 7CH must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 7 don’t care bit and 2 page address bits (A16 - A15) and 16 don’t care bits. The page address bits are used to specify any valid address location within the sector which is to be erased. When a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS pin, the part will erase the selected sector.

7.7 Chip Erase

The entire main memory can be erased at one time by using the Chip Erase command.
To execute the Chip Erase command, a 4-byte command sequence C7H, 94H, 80H and 9AH must be clocked into the device. Since the entire memory array is to be erased, no address bytes need to be clocked into the device, and any data clocked in after the opcode will be ignored. After the last bit of the opcode sequence has been clocked in, the CS serted to start the erase process. The erase operation is internally self-timed and should take place in a time of t

7.8 Main Memory Page Program Through Buffer

This operation is a combination of the Buffer Write and Buffer to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase operations. Data is first clocked into the buffer from the input pin (SI) and then programmed into a specified page in the main memory. To perform a main memory page pro­gram through buffer for the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), a 1-byte opcode, 82H, must first be clocked into the device, followed by three address bytes. The address bytes are comprised of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits, (PA8 - PA0) that select the page in the main memory where data is to be written, and 9 buffer address bits (BFA8 - BFA0) that select the first byte in the buffer to be written. To perform a main memory page program through buffer for the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 82H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consisting of 7 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) that specify the page in the main memory to be written, and 8 buffer address bits (BFA7 - BFA0) that selects the first byte in the buffer to be written. After all address bytes are clocked in, the part will take data from the input pins and store it in the specified data buffer. If the end of the buffer is reached, the device will wrap around back to the beginning of the buffer. When there is a low-to-high transi­tion on the CS program the data stored in the buffer into that memory page.

8. Sector Protection

Two protection methods, hardware and software controlled, are provided for protection against inadvertent or erroneous program and erase cycles. The software controlled method relies on the use of software commands to enable and disable sector protection while the hardware con­trolled method employs the use of the Write Protect (WP that are to be protected or unprotected against program and erase operations is specified in the nonvolatile Sector Protection Register. The status of whether or not sector protection has been enabled or disabled by either the software or the hardware controlled methods can be deter­mined by checking the Status Register.

9.1 Sector Protection Register

The nonvolatile Sector Protection Register specifies which sectors are to be protected or unpro­tected with either the software or hardware controlled protection methods. The Sector Protection Register contains 4 bytes of data, of which byte locations 0 through 3 contain values that specify whether sectors 0 through 3 will be protected or unprotected. The Sector Protection Register is user modifiable and must first be erased before it can be reprogrammed. Table 9-3 illustrates the format of the Sector Protection Register.

9.1.1 Erase Sector Protection Register Command

The Sector Protection Register can be erased with the sector protection enabled or disabled. Since the erased state (FFH) of each byte in the Sector Protection Register is used to indicate that a sector is specified for protection, leaving the sector protection enabled during the erasing of the register allows the protection scheme to be more effective in the prevention of accidental programming or erasing of the device. If for some reason an erroneous program or erase com­mand is sent to the device immediately after erasing the Sector Protection Register and before the register can be reprogrammed, then the erroneous program or erase command will not be processed because all sectors would be protected.

9.1.2 Program Sector Protection Register Command

Once the Sector Protection Register has been erased, it can be reprogrammed using the Program Sector Protection Register command.
To program the Sector Protection Register, the CS
pin must first be asserted and the appropri­ate 4-byte opcode sequence must be clocked into the device via the SI pin. The 4-byte opcode sequence must start with 3DH and be followed by 2AH, 7FH, and FCH. After the last bit of the opcode sequence has been clocked into the device, the data for the contents of the Sector Pro­tection Register must be clocked in. As described in Section 9.1, the Sector Protection Register contains 4 bytes of data, so 4 bytes must be clocked into the device. The first byte of data corre­sponds to sector 0, the second byte corresponds to sector 1, the third byte corresponds to sector 2, and the last byte of data corresponding to sector 3.
After the last data byte has been clocked in, the CS
pin must be deasserted to initiate the inter­nally self-timed program cycle. The programming of the Sector Protection Register should take place in a time of t
, during which time the Status Register will indicate that the device is busy. If
P
the device is powered-down during the program cycle, then the contents of the Sector Protection Register cannot be guaranteed.
If the proper number of data bytes is not clocked in before the CS
pin is deasserted, then the protection status of the sectors corresponding to the bytes not clocked in can not be guaranteed. For example, if only the first two bytes are clocked in instead of the complete 4 bytes, then the protection status of the last 2 sectors cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, if more than 4 bytes of data is clocked into the device, then the data will wrap back around to the beginning of the register. For instance, if 5 bytes of data are clocked in, then the 5th byte will be stored at byte location 0 of the Sector Protection Register.
If a value other than 00H or FFH is clocked into a byte location of the Sector Protection Register, then the protection status of the sector corresponding to that byte location cannot be guaran­teed. For example, if a value of 17H is clocked into byte location 2 of the Sector Protection Register, then the protection status of sector 2 cannot be guaranteed.
The Sector Protection Register can be reprogrammed while the sector protection enabled or dis­abled. Being able to reprogram the Sector Protection Register with the sector protection enabled allows the user to temporarily disable the sector protection to an individual sector rather than disabling sector protection completely.
The Program Sector Protection Register command utilizes the internal SRAM buffer for processing. Therefore, the contents of the buffer will be altered from its previous state when this command is issued.

9.1.3 Read Sector Protection Register Command

To read the Sector Protection Register, the CS been asserted, an opcode of 32H and 3 dummy bytes must be clocked in via the SI pin. After the last bit of the opcode and dummy bytes have been clocked in, any additional clock pulses on the SCK pins will result in data for the content of the Sector Protection Register being output on the SO pin. The first byte corresponds to sector 0 (0a, 0b), the second byte corresponds to sector 1, the third byte corresponds to sector 2, and the last byte (byte 4) corresponds to sector 3. Once the last byte of the Sector Protection Register has been clocked out, any additional clock pulses will result in undefined data being output on the SO pin. The CS nate the Read Sector Protection Register operation and put the output into a high-impedance state.

9.1.4 Various Aspects About the Sector Protection Register

The Sector Protection Register is subject to a limit of 10,000 erase/program cycles. Users are encouraged to carefully evaluate the number of times the Sector Protection Register will be modified during the course of the applications’ life cycle. If the application requires that the Sec­tor Protection Register be modified more than the specified limit of 10,000 cycles because the application needs to temporarily unprotect individual sectors (sector protection remains enabled while the Sector Protection Register is reprogrammed), then the application will need to limit this practice. Instead, a combination of temporarily unprotecting individual sectors along with dis­abling sector protection completely will need to be implemented by the application to ensure that the limit of 10,000 cycles is not exceeded.

10. Security Features

10.1 Sector Lockdown

The device incorporates a Sector Lockdown mechanism that allows each individual sector to be permanently locked so that it becomes read only. This is useful for applications that require the ability to permanently protect a number of sectors against malicious attempts at altering program code or security information. Once a sector is locked down, it can never be erased or pro-
grammed, and it can never be unlocked.
To issue the Sector Lockdown command, the CS any other command. Once the CS
pin has been asserted, the appropriate 4-byte opcode
pin must first be asserted as it would be for
sequence must be clocked into the device in the correct order. The 4-byte opcode sequence must start with 3DH and be followed by 2AH, 7FH, and 30H. After the last byte of the command sequence has been clocked in, then three address bytes specifying any address within the sec­tor to be locked down must be clocked into the device. After the last address bit has been clocked in, the CS
pin must then be deasserted to initiate the internally self-timed lockdown
sequence.
The lockdown sequence should take place in a maximum time of t
, during which time the Status
P
Register will indicate that the device is busy. If the device is powered-down before the comple­tion of the lockdown sequence, then the lockdown status of the sector cannot be guaranteed. In this case, it is recommended that the user read the Sector Lockdown Register to determine the status of the appropriate sector lockdown bits or bytes and reissue the Sector Lockdown com­mand if necessary.

After the last bit of the opcode and dummy bytes have been clocked in, the data for the contents of the Sector Lockdown Register will be clocked out on the SO pin. The first byte corresponds to sector 0 (0a, 0b) the second byte corresponds to sector 1 and the last byte (byte 4) corresponds to sector 3. After the last byte of the Sector Lock­down Register has been read, additional pulses on the SCK pin will simply result in undefined data being output on the SO pin.

10.2 Security Register

The device contains a specialized Security Register that can be used for purposes such as unique device serialization or locked key storage. The register is comprised of a total of 128 bytes that is divided into two portions. The first 64 bytes (byte locations 0 through 63) of the Security Register are allocated as a one-time user programmable space. Once these 64 bytes have been programmed, they cannot be reprogrammed. The remaining 64 bytes of the register (byte locations 64 through 127) are factory programmed by Atmel and will contain a unique value for each device. The factory programmed data is fixed and cannot be changed.
Table 10-3. Security Register
Data Type One-time User Programmable Factory Programmed By Atmel

10.2.1 Programming the Security Register

The user programmable portion of the Security Register does not need to be erased before it is programmed.
Security Register Byte Number
01• • • 62 63 64 65 • • • 126 127
To program the Security Register, the CS
pin must first be asserted and the appropriate 4-byte opcode sequence must be clocked into the device in the correct order. The 4-byte opcode sequence must start with 9BH and be followed by 00H, 00H, and 00H. After the last bit of the opcode sequence has been clocked into the device, the data for the contents of the 64-byte user programmable portion of the Security Register must be clocked in.
After the last data byte has been clocked in, the CS
pin must be deasserted to initiate the inter­nally self-timed program cycle. The programming of the Security Register should take place in a time of t
, during which time the Status Register will indicate that the device is busy. If the device
P
is powered-down during the program cycle, then the contents of the 64-byte user programmable portion of the Security Register cannot be guaranteed.
If the full 64 bytes of data is not clocked in before the CS
pin is deasserted, then the values of the byte locations not clocked in cannot be guaranteed. For example, if only the first two bytes are clocked in instead of the complete 64 bytes, then the remaining 62 bytes of the user pro­grammable portion of the Security Register cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, if more than 64 bytes of data is clocked into the device, then the data will wrap back around to the beginning of the register. For instance, if 65 bytes of data are clocked in, then the 65th byte will be stored at byte location 0 of the Security Register.
The user programmable portion of the Security Register can only be programmed one time. Therefore, it is not possible to only program the first two bytes of the register and then pro-
gram the remaining 62 bytes at a later time.
The Program Security Register command utilizes the internal SRAM buffer for processing. Therefore, the contents of the buffer will be altered from its previous state when this command is issued.

11. Additional Commands

11.1 Main Memory Page to Buffer Transfer

A page of data can be transferred from the main memory to the buffer. To start the operation for the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), a 1-byte opcode, 53H, must be clocked into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (PA8 - PA0), which specify the page in main memory that is to be transferred, and 9 don’t care bits. To perform a main memory page to buffer transfer for the binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 53H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consisting of 7 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) which specify the page in the main memory that is to be transferred, and 8 don’t care bits. The CS load the opcode and the address bytes from the input pin (SI). The transfer of the page of data from the main memory to the buffer will begin when the CS state.

11.2 Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare

A page of data in main memory can be compared to the data in the buffer. To initiate the opera­tion for the DataFlash standard page size, a 1-byte opcode, 60H, must be clocked into the device, followed by three address bytes consisting of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (PA8 - PA0) that specify the page in the main memory that is to be compared to the buffer, and 9 don’t care bits. To start a main memory page to buffer compare for a binary page size, the opcode 60H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consisting of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) that specify the page in the main memory that is to be compared to the buffer, and 8 don’t care bits.

the data bytes in the buffer. During this time (t is busy. On completion of the compare operation, bit 6 of the status register is updated with the result of the compare.

11.3 Auto Page Rewrite

This mode is only needed if multiple bytes within a page or multiple pages of data are modified in a random fashion within a sector. This mode is a combination of two operations: Main Memory Page to Buffer Transfer and Buffer to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase. A page of data is first transferred from the main memory to the buffer and then the same data (from the buffer) is programmed back into its original page of main memory. To start the rewrite operation for the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), a 1-byte opcode, 58H, must be clocked into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 6 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (PA8 - PA0) that specify the page in main memory to be rewritten and 9 don’t care bits. To ini­tiate an auto page rewrite for a binary page size (256 bytes), the opcode 58H must be clocked into the device followed by three address bytes consisting of 7 don’t care bits, 9 page address bits (A16 - A8) that specify the page in the main memory that is to be written and 8 don’t care bits. When a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS page in main memory to a buffer and then program the data from the buffer back into same page of main memory. The operation is internally self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of t

If a sector is programmed or reprogrammed sequentially page by page, then the programming algorithm shown in Figure 25-1 (page 45) is recommended. Otherwise, if multiple bytes in a page or several pages are programmed randomly in a sector, then the programming algorithm shown in Figure 25-2 (page 46) is recommended. Each page within a sector must be updated/rewritten at least once within every 10,000 cumulative page erase/program operations in that sector.

. During this time, the status register will indicate that the part is busy.

11.4 Status Register Read

The status register can be used to determine the device’s ready/busy status, page size, a Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare operation result, the Sector Protection status or the device density. The Status Register can be read at any time, including during an internally self-timed program or erase operation. To read the status register, the CS opcode of D7H must be loaded into the device. After the opcode is clocked in, the 1-byte status register will be clocked out on the output pin (SO), starting with the next clock cycle. The data in the status register, starting with the MSB (bit 7), will be clocked out on the SO pin during the next eight clock cycles. After the one byte of the status register has been clocked out, the sequence will repeat itself (as long as CS register is constantly updated, so each repeating sequence will output new data.
Ready/busy status is indicated using bit 7 of the status register. If bit 7 is a 1, then the device is not busy and is ready to accept the next command. If bit 7 is a 0, then the device is in a busy state. Since the data in the status register is constantly updated, the user must toggle SCK pin to check the ready/busy status. There are several operations that can cause the device to be in a busy state: Main Memory Page to Buffer Transfer, Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare, Buffer to Main Memory Page Program, Main Memory Page Program through Buffer, Page Erase, Block Erase, Sector Erase, Chip Erase and Auto Page Rewrite.
The result of the most recent Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare operation is indicated using bit 6 of the status register. If bit 6 is a 0, then the data in the main memory page matches the

AT45DB011D [Preliminary]
data in the buffer. If bit 6 is a 1, then at least one bit of the data in the main memory page does not match the data in the buffer.
Bit 1 in the Status Register is used to provide information to the user whether or not the sector protection has been enabled or disabled, either by software-controlled method or hardware-con­trolled method. A logic 1 indicates that sector protection has been enabled and logic 0 indicates that sector protection has been disabled.
Bit 0 in the Status Register indicates whether the page size of the main memory array is config­ured for “power of 2” binary page size (256 bytes) or the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes).

The device density is indicated using bits 5, 4, 3, and 2 of the status register. For the AT45DB011D, the four bits are 0011 The decimal value of these four binary bits does not equate to the device density; the four bits represent a combinational code relating to differing densities of DataFlash devices.

12. Deep Power-down

After initial power-up, the device will default in standby mode. The Deep Power-down command allows the device to enter into the lowest power consumption mode. To enter the Deep Power­down mode, the CS of B9H command must be clocked in via input pin (SI). After the last bit of the command has been clocked in, the CS After the CS maximum t are ignored except for the Resume from Deep Power-down command.

13. “Power of 2” Binary Page Size Option

“Power of 2” binary page size Configuration Register is a user-programmable nonvolatile regis­ter that allows the page size of the main memory to be configured for binary page size (256 bytes) or the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes). The “power of 2” page size is a
One-time Programmable (OTP) register and once the device is configured for “power of 2” page size, it cannot be reconfigured again. The devices are initially shipped with the page
size set to 264 bytes.

13.1 Programming the Configuration Register

To program the Configuration Register for “power of 2” binary page size, the CS pin must first be asserted as it would be with any other command. Once the CS appropriate 4-byte opcode sequence must be clocked into the device in the correct order. The 4-byte opcode sequence must start with 3DH and be followed by 2AH, 80H, and A6H. After the last bit of the opcode sequence has been clocked in, the CS the internally self-timed program cycle. The programming of the Configuration Register should take place in a time of t busy. The device must be power-cycled after the completion of the program cycle to set the “power of 2” page size. If the device is powered-down before the completion of the program cycle, then setting the Configuration Register cannot be guaranteed. However, the user should check bit 0 of the status register to see whether the page size was configured for binary page size. If not, the command can be re-issued again.

14. Manufacturer and Device ID Read

Identification information can be read from the device to enable systems to electronically query and identify the device while it is in system. The identification method and the command opcode comply with the JEDEC standard for “Manufacturer and Device ID Read Methodology for SPI Compatible Serial Interface Memory Devices”. The type of information that can be read from the device includes the JEDEC defined Manufacturer ID, the vendor specific Device ID, and the ven­dor specific Extended Device Information.
To read the identification information, the CS must be clocked into the device. After the opcode has been clocked in, the device will begin out­putting the identification data on the SO pin during the subsequent clock cycles. The first byte that will be output will be the Manufacturer ID followed by two bytes of Device ID information. The fourth byte output will be the Extended Device Information String Length, which will be 00H indicating that no Extended Device Information follows. As indicated in the JEDEC standard, reading the Extended Device Information String Length and any subsequent data is optional.

16. Power-on/Reset State

When power is first applied to the device, or when recovering from a reset condition, the device will default to Mode 3. In addition, the output pin (SO) will be in a high impedance state, and a high-to-low transition on the CS 3 or Mode 0) will be automatically selected on every falling edge of CS clock state.

16.1 Initial Power-up/Reset Timing Restrictions

At power up, the device must not be selected until the supply voltage reaches the VCC (min.) and further delay of t reset mode until the V operations are disabled and the device does not respond to any commands. After power up is applied and the V before the device can be selected in order to perform a read operation.

17. System Considerations

The RapidS serial interface is controlled by the clock SCK, serial input SI and chip select CS pins. These signals must rise and fall monotonically and be free from noise. Excessive noise or ringing on these pins can be misinterpreted as multiple edges and cause improper operation of the device. The PC board traces must be kept to a minimum distance or appropriately termi­nated to ensure proper operation. If necessary, decoupling capacitors can be added on these pins to provide filtering against noise glitches.
As system complexity continues to increase, voltage regulation is becoming more important. A key element of any voltage regulation scheme is its current sourcing capability. Like all Flash memories, the peak current for DataFlash occur during the programming and erase operation. The regulator needs to supply this peak current requirement. An under specified regulator can cause current starvation. Besides increasing system noise, current starvation during program­ming or erase can lead to improper operation and possible data corruption.

21.5 Utilizing the RapidS Function

To take advantage of the RapidS function's ability to operate at higher clock frequencies, a full clock cycle must be used to transmit data back and forth across the serial bus. The DataFlash is designed to always clock its data out on the falling edge of the SCK signal and clock data in on the rising edge of SCK.
For full clock cycle operation to be achieved, when the DataFlash is clocking data out on the falling edge of SCK, the host controller should wait until the next falling edge of SCK to latch the data in. Similarly, the host controller should clock its data out on the rising edge of SCK in order to give the DataFlash a full clock cycle to latch the incoming data in on the next rising edge of SCK.

Notes: 1. This type of algorithm is used for applications in which the entire array is programmed sequentially, filling the array page-by-
page.
2. A page can be written using either a Main Memory Page Program operation or a Buffer Write operation followed by a Buffer
to Main Memory Page Program operation.
3. The algorithm above shows the programming of a single page. The algorithm will be repeated sequentially for each page
within the entire array.

Notes: 1. To preserve data integrity, each page of a DataFlash sector must be updated/rewritten at least once within every 10,000
cumulative page erase and program operations.
2. A Page Address Pointer must be maintained to indicate which page is to be rewritten. The Auto Page Rewrite command
must use the address specified by the Page Address Pointer.
3. Other algorithms can be used to rewrite portions of the Flash array. Low-power applications may choose to wait until 10,000
cumulative page erase and program operations have accumulated before rewriting all pages of the sector. See application note AN-4 (“Using Atmel’s Serial DataFlash”) for more details.
