1 INTRODUCTION
This datasheet contains LH28F160S3HT-Ll OA
specifications. Section 1 provides a flash memory
overview. Sections 2, 3, 4, and 5 describe the
memory organization and functionality. Section 6
covers electrical specifications.
1 .l Product Overview
The LH28F160S3HT-Ll OA is a high-performance
16M-bit Smart 3 Flash memory organized as
2MBx80MBxl6. The 2MB of data is arranged in
thirty-two 64K-byte blocks which are individually
erasable, lockable, and unlockable in-system. The
memory map is shown in Figure 3.
Smart 3’ technology provides a choice of V,, and
V,, combinations, as shown in Table 1, to meet
system performance and power expectations. 2.7V
Vc, consumes approximately one-fifth the power of
5V Vc,. V,, at 2.7V, 3.3V and 5V eliminates the
need for a separate 12V converter, while V,,=5V
maximizes erase and write performance. In addition
to flexible erase and program voltages, the dedicated
V,, pin gives complete data protection when

write suspend mode enables the system to read data
or execute code from any other flash memory array
location.
Individual block locking uses a combination of bits
and WP#, Thirty-two block lock-bits, to lock ant
unlock blocks. Block lock-bits gate block erase, full
chip erase and (multi) word/byte write operations.
Block lock-bit configuration operations (Set Block
Lock-Bit and Clear Block Lock-Bits commands) sei
and cleared block lock-bits.
The status register indicates when the WSM’s block
erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write or block
lock-bit configuration operation is finished.
The STS output gives an additional indicator of WSM
activity by providing both a hardware signal of status
(versus software polling) and status maskins
(interrupt masking for background block erase, fol
example). Status polling using STS minimizes bott
CPU overhead and system power consumption. STS
pin can be configured to different states using the
Configuration command. The STS pin defaults tc
RY/BY# operation. When low, STS indicates that the
WSM is performing a block erase, full chip erase
(multi) word/byte write or block lock-bit configuration
STS-High Z indicates that the WSM is ready for a
new command, block erase is suspended and (multi:
word/byte write are inactive, (multi) word/byte write
are suspended, or the device is in deep power-dowr
mode. The other 3 alternate configurations are al
pulse mode for use as a system interrupt.
The access time is 100ns (tAVQv) over the extendec
temperature range (-40°C to +85”C) and Vc, suppI\
voltage range of 3.OV-3.6V. At lower V,, voltage, the
access time is 120ns (2.7V-3.6V).
A Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the
interface between the system processor and internal
operation of the device. A valid command sequence
written to the CUI initiates device automation. An
internal Write State Machine (WSM) automatically
executes the algorithms and timings necessary for
block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write
and block lock-bit configuration operations.
4 block erase operation erases one of the device’s
%lK-byte blocks typically within 0.41s (3.3V Vcc, 5V
VP,) independent of other blocks. Each block can be
independently erased 100,000 times (3.2 million
olock erases per device). Block erase suspend mode
allows system software to suspend block erase to
read or write data from any other block.
A word/byte write is performed in byte increments
typically within 12.95ps (3.3V V,,, 5V VP,). A multi
word/byte write has high speed write performance of
2.7@byte (3.3V V,,, 5V VP,). (Multi) Word/byte
The Automatic Power Savings (APS) feature
substantially reduces active current when the device
is in static mode (addresses not switching). In APS
m‘ode, the typical I,,, current is 3 mA at 3.3V V,c.
When either CE,# or CE,#, and RP# pins are at V,,
the I,, CMOS standby mode is enabled. When the
RP# pin is at GND, deep power-down mode ic
enabled which minimizes power consumption and
provides write protection during reset. A reset time
(tPHav) is required from RP# switching high until
outputs are valid. Likewise, the device has a wake
time (tPHEL) from RP#-high until writes to the CUI are
recognized. With RP# at GND, the WSM is reset and
the status register is cleared.
The device is available in 56-Lead TSOP (Thin Small
Outline Package, 1.2 mm thick). Pinout is shown in

mode. Data pins float to high-impedance when the chip is deselected, outputs are
disabled, or in x8 mode(Byte#=V,, ). Data is internally latched during a write cycle.
CHIP ENABLE: Activates the device’s control logic, input buffers decoders, and sense
amplifiers. Either CE,# or CE,# V,, deselects the device and reduces power consumption
to standby levels. Both CE,-# and CE,# must be V,, to select the devices.
RESET/DEEP POWER-DOWN: Puts the device in deep power-down mode and resets
internal automation. RP# V,, enables normal operation. When driven \JIL, RP# inhibits
write operations which provides data protection during power transitions. Exit from deep
power-down sets the device to read array mode.
OUTPUT ENABLE: Gates the device’s outputs during a read cycle.
WRITE ENABLE: Controls writes to the CUI and array blocks. Addresses and data are
latched on the rising edge of the WE# pulse.
STS (RY/BY#): Indicates the status of the internal WSM. When configured in level mode
(default mode), it acts as a RY/BY# pin. When low, the WSM is performing an internal
operation (block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write or block lock-bit
configuration). STS High Z indicates that the WSM is ready for new commands, block
erase is suspended, and (multi) word/byte write is inactive, (multi) word/byte write is
suspended or the device is in deep power-down mode. For alternate configurations of the
STATUS pin, see the Configuration command.
WRITE PROTECT: Master control for block locking. When V,,, Locked blocks can not be
erased and programmed, and block lock-bits can not be set and reset.

2 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The LH28F160S3HT-Ll OA Flash memory includes
an on-chip WSM to manage block erase, full chip
erase, (multi) word/byte write and block lock-bit
configuration functions. It allows for: 100% TTL-level
control inputs, fixed power supplies during block
erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write and
block lock-bit configuration, and minimal processor
overhead with RAM-Like interface timings.
After initial device power-up or return from deep
power-down mode (see Bus Operations), the device
defaults to read array mode. Manipulation of external
memory control pins allow array read, standby, and
output disable operations.
Status :egister, query structure and identifier codes
can be accessed through the CUI independent of the
V,, voltage. High voltage on VPP enables successful
block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write
and block lock-bit configuration. All functions
associated with altering memory contents-block
erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write and
block lock-bit configuration, status, query and
identifier codes-are accessed via the CUI and
verified through the status register.
Commands are
microprocessor write timings. The CUI contents serve
as input to the WSM, which controls the block erase,
full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write and block lockbit configuration. The internal algorithms are
regulated by the WSM, including pulse repetition,
internal verification,
Addresses and data are internally latch during write
cycles. Writing the appropriate command outputs
array data, accesses the identifier codes, outputs
query structure or outputs status register data.
Interface software that initiates and polls progress of
block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write
and block lock-bit configuration can be stored in any
block. This code is copied to and executed from
system RAM during flash memory updates. After
successful completion, reads are again possible via
the Read Array command. Block erase suspend
allows system software to suspend a block erase to
read or write data from any other block. Write
suspend allows system software to suspend a (multi)
word/byte write to read data from any other flash
memory array location.
Depending on the application, the system designer
may choose to make the V,, power supply
switchable (available only when block erase, full chip
erase, (multi) word/byte write and block lock-bit
configuration are required) or hardwired to VPPH1,2/3.
The device accommodates either design practice and
encourages optimization of the processor-memory
interface.
When Vpp~VppLKt
altered. The CUI, with multi-step block erase, full chip
erase, (multi) word/byte write and block lock-bit
configuration command sequences, provides
protection from unwanted operations even when high
voltage,is applied to V,,. All write functions are
disabled when Vcc is below the write lockout voltage
V,,, or when RP# is at V,,. The device’s block
locking capability provides additional protection from
inadvertent code or data alteration by gating block
erase, full chip erase and (multi) word/byte write
operations.
memory contents cannot be
3 BUS OPERATION
The local CPU reads and writes flash memory insystem. All bus cycles to or from the flash memory
conform to standard microprocessor bus cycles.
3.1 Read
Information can be read from any block, identifier
codes, query structure,‘or status register independent
of the V,, voltage. RP# must be at VI,.
The first task is to write the appropriate read mode
command (Read Array, Read Identifier Codes, Query
or Read Status Register) to the CUI. Upon initial
device power-up or after exit from deep power-down
mode, the device automatically resets to read array
mode. Five control pins dictate the data flow in and
out of the component: CE# (CE,#, CE,#), OE#, WE#,
RP# and WP#. CE,#, CE,# and OE# must be driven
active to obtain data at the outputs. CE,#, CE,# is
the device selection control, and when active enables
the selected memory device. OE# is the data output
(DC&-DQ,,) control and when active drives the
selected memory data onto the I/O bus. WE# and
RP# must be at V,,. Figure 17, 18 illustrates a read
cycle.
7
3.2 Output Disable
With OE# at a logic-high level (VI,), the devict
outputs are disabled. Output pins DO,-DQ,, an
placed in a high-impedance state.
3.3 Standby
Either CE,# or CE,# at a logic-high level (V,,) place:
the device in standby mode which substantiall!
reduces device power consumption. DQo-DQ,,
outputs are placed in a high-impedance statt
independent of OE#. If deselected during bloc1
erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write ant
block lock-bit configuration, the device continue:
functioning, and consuming active power until the
operation completes.
3.4 Deep Power-Down
RP# at V,, initiates the deep power-down mode.
In read modes, RP#-low deselects the memory
places output drivers in a high-impedance state ant
turns off all internal circuits. RP# must be held low fol
a minimum of 100 ns. Time t,,crv is required after
return from power-down until initial memory access
outputs are valid. After this wakeup interval, norma
operation is restored. The CUI is reset to read arra)
mode and status register is set to 80H.
During block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte
write or block lock-bit configuration modes, RP#-low
will abort the operation. STS remains low until the
reset operation is complete. Memory contents being
altered are no longer valid; the data may be partially
erased or written. Time tPHWL is required after RP#
goes to logic-high (V,,) before another command can
be written.
As with any automated device, it is important tc
assert RP# during system reset. When the system
comes out of reset, it expects to read from the flash
memory. Automated flash memories provide status
information when accessed during block erase, full
chip erase, (multi) word/byte write and block lock-bit
configuration. If a CPU reset occurs with no flash
memory reset, proper CPU initialization may not
occur because the flash memory may be providing
status information instead of array data. SHARP’s
flash memories allow proper CPU initialization
following a system reset through the use of the RP#
input. In this application, RP# is controlled by the
same RESET# signal that resets the system CPU.

3.5 Read Identifier Codes Operation
The read identifier codes operation outputs the
manufacturer code, device code, block status codes
for each block (see Figure 4). Using the manufacturer
and device codes, the system CPU can automatically
match the device with its proper algorithms. The
block status codes identify locked or unlocked block
setting and erase completed or erase uncompleted
condition.
Query structure are always presented on the lowest-
order data output (DQc-DQ,) only.
allows system software to gain critical
3.7 Write
Writing commands to the CUI enable reading of
device data and identifier codes. They also control
inspection and clearing of the status register. When
Vcc=Vcc1,2 and VPP=VPPHt/2/3, the CUI additionally
controls block erase, full chip erase, (multi) wordlbyte
write and block lock-bit configuration.
The Block Erase command requires appropriate
command data and an address within the block to be
erased. The Word/byte Write command requires the
command and address of the location to be written.
Set Block Lock-Bit command requires the command
and block address within the device (Block Lock) to
be locked. The Clear Block Lock-Bits command
requires the command and address within the device.
The CUI does not occupy an addressable memory
location. It is written when WE# and CE# are active.
The address and data needed to execute a command
are latched on the rising edge of WE# or CE#
(whichever goes high first). Standard microprocessor
write timings are used. Figures 19 and 20 illustrate
WE# and CE#-controlled write operations.
4 COMMAND DEFINITIONS
When the V,, voltage I V,,,,, Read operations from
the status register, identifier codes, query, or blocks
are enabled. Placing V,,,,,us on V,, enables
successful block erase, full chip erase, (multi)
word/byte write and block lock-bit configuration
operations.
Device operations are selected by writing specific
commands into the CUI. Table 4 defines these
commands.

4.1 Read Array Command 4.3 Read Status Register Command
Upon initial device power-up and after exit from deep
power-down mode, the device defaults to read array
mode. This operation is also initiated by writing the
Read Array command. The device remains enabled
for reads until another command is written. Once the
internal WSM has started a block erase, full chip
erase, (multi) word/byte write or block lock-bit
configuration, the device will not recognize the Read
Array command until the WSM completes its
operation unless the WSM is suspended via an Erase
Suspend and (Multi) Word/byte Write Suspend
command. The Read Array command functions
independently of the VP,, voltage and RP# must be
Vi,*
The
status
register may be read to determine when i
block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write OI
block lock-bit configuration is complete and whethei
the operation completed successfully(see Table 14)
It may be read at any time by writing the Read Statu:
Register command. After writing this command, al
subsequent read operations output data from the
status register until another valid command is written
The status register contents are latched on the fallins
edge of OE# or CE#(Either CE,# or CE,#)
whichever occurs. OE# or CE#(Either CE,# or CE,#:
must toggle to ‘Jr, before further reads to update the
status register latch. The Read Status Register
command functions independently of the V,, voltage
RP# must be VI,.
4.2 F&ad Identifier Codes Command
The extended status register may be read tc
The identifier code operation is initiated by writing the
Read Identifier Codes command. Following the
command write, read cycles from addresses shown in
Figure 4 retrieve the manufacturer, device, block lock
configuration and block erase status (see Table 5 for
identifier code values). To terminate the operation,
write another valid command. Like the Read Array
command, the Read Identifier Codes command
functions independently of the V,, voltage and RP#
must be V,,. Following the Read Identifier Codes
command, the following information can be read:

command. After writing this command, all subsequen
read operations output data from the extended statuz
register, until another valid command is written. Mult
Word/Byte Write command must be re-issued tc
update the extended status register latch.
4.4 Clear Status Register Command
Status register bits SR.5, SR.4, SR.3 and SR.l are
set to “1”s by the WSM and can only be reset by the
Clear Status Register command. These bits indicate
various failure conditions (see Table 14). By allowins
system software to reset these bits, severa
operations (such as cumulatively erasing or lockinc
multiple blocks or writing several bytes in sequence:
may be performed. The status register may be pollee
to determine if an error occurs during the sequence.
To clear the status register, the Clear Status Register
command (50H) is written. It functions independently
of the applied V,, Voltage. RP# must be VI,. This
command is not functional during block erase, ful
chip erase, (multi) word/byte write block lock-bii
configuration, block erase suspend or (multi:
word/byte write suspend modes.

4.6 Block Erase Command
Block erase is executed one block at a time and
initiated by a two-cycle command. A block erase
setup is first written, followed by an block erase
confirm. This command sequence requires
appropriate sequencing and an address within the
block to be erased (erase changes all block data to
FFH). Block preconditioning, erase and verify are
handled internally by the WSM (invisible to the
system). After the two-cycle block erase sequence is
written, the device automatically outputs status
register data when read (see Figure 5). The CPU can
detect block erase completion by analyzing the
output data of the STS pin or status register bit SR.7.
When t$e block erase is complete, status register bit
SR.5 should be checked. If a block erase error is
detected, the status register should be cleared before
system software attempts corrective actions. The CUI
remains in read status register mode until a new
command is issued.
This two-step command sequence of set-up followed
by execution ensures that block contents are not
accidentally erased. An invalid Block Erase command
sequence will result in both status register bits SR.4
and SR.5 being set to “1 ‘I. Also, reliable block erasure
can only occur when Vcc=Vcc1,2 and VPP=VPPH,,2/3.
In the absence of this high voltage, block contents
are protected against erasure. If block erase is
attempted while V,,<V,,,,, SR.3 and SR.5 will be
set to “1”. Successful block erase requires that the
corresponding block lock-bit be cleared or if set, that
NP#=V,,. If block erase is attempted when the
:orresponding’ block lock-bit is set and WP#=V,,,
3R.l and SR.5 will be set.to “1”.
1.7 Full Chip Erase Command
erase setup is first written, followed by a full chif
erase confirm. After a confirm command is written
device erases the all unlocked blocks from block 0 tc
Block 31 block by block. This command sequence
requires appropriate
preconditioning,
internally by the WSM (invisible to the system). Afte
the two-cycle full chip erase sequence is written, the
device automatically outputs status register dab
when read (see Figure 6). The CPU can detect ful
chip erase completion by analyzing the output data o
the STS pin or status register bit SR.7.
When the full chip erase is complete, status register
bit SR.5 should be checked. If erase error i:
detected, the status register should be cleared before
system software attempts corrective actions. The GUI
remains in read status register mode until a new
command is issued. If error is detected on a block
during full chip erase operation, WSM stops erasing,
Reading the block valid status by issuing Read ID
Codes command or Query command informs which
blocks failed to its erase.
This two-step command sequence of set-up followed
by execution ensures that block contents are no1
accidentally erased. An invalid Full Chip Erase
command sequence will result in both status register
bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1”. Also, reliable full
chip erasure can only occur when Vcc=Vcc1,2 and
VPP=VPPH1,2,3. In the absence of this high voltage,
block contents are protected against erasure. If full
chip erase is attempted while V,,IV,,,,, SR.3 and
SR.5 will be set to “1”. When WP#=V,,, all blocks are
erased independent of block lock-bits status. When

4.8 Word/Byte Write Command
Word/byte write is executed by a two-cycle command
sequence. Word/Byte Write setup (standard 40H or
alternate 10H) is written, followed by a second write
that specifies the address and data (latched on the
rising edge of WE#). The WSM then takes over,
controlling the word/byte write and write verify
algorithms internally. After the word/byte write
sequence is written, the device automatically outputs
status register data when read (see Figure 7). The
CPU can detect the completion of the word/byte write
event by analyzing the STS pin or status register bit
SR.7.
When word/byte write is complete, status register bit
SR.4 should be checked. If word/byte write error is
detected, the status register should be cleared. The
internal WSM verify only detects errors for “1”s that
do not successfully write to “0”s. The CUI remains in
read status register mode until it receives another
command.
Reliable word/byte writes can only occur when
Vcc=Vcc,,2 and VPP=VPPH112,3. In the absence of
this high voltage, memory contents are protected
against word/byte writes. If word/byte write is
attempted while V+V,,,,, status register bits SR.3
and SR.4 will be set to “1”. Successful word/byte
write requires that the corresponding block lock-bit be
cleared or, if set, that WP#=V,,. If word/byte write is
attempted when the corresponding block lock-bit is
set and WP#=V,,, SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1”.
Word/byte write operations with V,,<WP#<V,,
produce spurious results and ,should not be
attempted. ”
4.9 Multi Word/Byte Write Command
Multi word/byte write is executed by at least fourycle or up to 35cycle command sequence. Up to
32 bytes in x8 mode (16 words in xl6 mode) can be
oaded into the buffer and written to the Flash Array.
=irst, multi word/byte write setup (E8H) is written with
:he write address. At this point, the device
automatically outputs extended status register data
:XSR) when read (see Figure 8, 9). If extended
status register bit XSR.7 is 0, no Multi Word/Byte
Nrite command is available and multi word/byte write
setup which just has been written is ignored. To retry,
continue monitoring XSR.7 by writing multi word/byte
write setup with write address until XSR.7 transitions
to 1. When XSR.7 transitions to 1, the device is ready
for loading the data to the buffer. A word/byte count
(N)-1 is written with write address. After writing a
word/byte count(N)-1, the device automatically turns
back to output status register data. The word/byte
count (N)-1 must be less than or equal to 1FH in x8
mode (OFH in x16 mode). On the next write, device
start address is written with buffer data. Subsequen
writes provide additional device address and data
depending on the count. All subsequent addres:
must lie within the start address plus the count. Afte
the final buffer data is written, write confirm (DOH
must be written. This initiates WSM to begin copyin!
the buffer data to the Flash Array. An invalid Mull
Word/Byte Write command sequence will result iI
both status register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set tc
“1”. For additional multi word/byte write, write anothe
multi word/byte write setup and check XSR.7. Tht
Multi Word/Byte Write command can be queuec
while WSM is busy as long as XSR.7 indicates “1”
because LH28F160S3HT-LlOA has two buffers. If ar
error occurs while writing, the device will stop writins
and flush next multi word/byte write command loader
in multi word/byte write command. Status register bi
SR.4 will be set to “1”. No multi word/byte writ6
command is available if either SR.4 or SR.5 are se
to “1”. SR.4 and SR.5 should be cleared before
issuing multi word/byte write command. If a mult
word/byte write command is attempted past an erase
block boundary, the device will write the data to Flast
Array up. to an erase block boundary and then stag
writing. Status register bits SR.4 and SR.5 will be se
to “1 ‘I.
Reliable multi byte writes can only occur wher
Vcc=Vcc1,2 and VPP=VP~H11213. In the absence o
this high voltage, memory contents are protectec
against multi word/byte writes. If multi word/byte write
is attempted while V+V,,,,, status register bits
SR.3 and SR.4 will be set to “1”. Successful muIt,
word/byte write requires that the corresponding block
lock-bit be cleared or, if set, that WP#=V,,. If muIt,
byte write is attempted when the corresponding block
lock-bit is set and WP#=V,,, SR.l and SR.4 will be
set to “1 ‘I.

4.10 Block Erase Suspend Command
The Block Erase Suspend command allows blockerase interruption to read or (multi) word/byte-write
lata in another block of memory. Once the blockxase process starts,
Suspend command requests that the WSM suspend
:he block erase sequence at a predetermined point in
:he algorithm. The device outputs status register data
when read after the Block Erase Suspend command
s written. Polling status register bits SR.7 and SR.6
zan determine when the block erase operation has
?een suspended (both will be set to “1”). STS will
also transition to High Z. Specification twHRH2 defines
:he block erase suspend latency.
4t this point, a Read Array command can be written
;o read data from blocks other than that which is
suspended. A (Multi) Word/Byte Write command
sequence can also be issued during erase suspend
IO program data in other blocks. Using the (Multi)
word/Byte Write Suspend command (see Section
4.1 l), a (multi) word/byte write operation can also be
suspended. During a (multi) word/byte write operation
with block erase suspended, status register bit 33.7
will return to “0” and the STS (if set to RY/BY#)
output will transition to VOL. However, SR.6 will
remain “1” to indicate block erase suspend status.
The only other valid commands while block erase is
suspended are Read Status Register and Block
Erase Resume. After a Block Erase Resume
command is written to the flash memory, the WSM
will continue the block erase process. Status register
oits SR.6 and SR.7 will automatically clear and STS
will return to VIOL.
IS written, the device automatically outputs status
register data when read (see Figure 10). V,, must
remain at VPPHi12,s (the same Vpp level used for
block erase) while block erase is suspended. RP#
must also remain at VI,.
After the Erase Resume command
writing the Block Erase
Block erase cannot resume
until (multi) word/byte write operations initiated during
block erase suspend have completed.
4.11 (Multi) Word/Byte Write Suspend
Command
The (Multi) Word/Byte Write Suspend command
allows (multi) word/byte write interruption to read data
in other flash memory locations. Once the (multi)
word/byte write process starts, writing the (Multi)
Word/Byte Write Suspend command requests that
the WSM suspend the (multi) word/byte. write
sequence at a predetermined point in the algorithm.
The device continues to output status register data
when read after the (Multi) Word/Byte Write Suspend
command is written. Polling status register bits SR.7
and SR.2 can determine when the (multi) word/byte
write operation has been suspended (both will be set
to “1”). STS will also transition to High Z.

write suspend latency.
At this point, a Read Array command can be written
to read data from locations other than that which is
suspended. The only other valid commands while
(multi) word/byte write is suspended are Read Status
Register and (Multi) Word/Byte Write Resume. After
(Multi) Word/Byte Write Resume command is written
to the flash memory, the WSM will continue the
(multi) word/byte write process. Status register bits
SR.2 and SR.7 will automatically clear and STS will
return to V,,. After the (Multi) Word/Byte Write
command is written, the device automatically outputs
status register data when read (see Figure 11). V,,
must remain at VPPH,,2,3 (the same V,, level used

4.12 Set Block Lock-Bit Command
A flexible block locking and unlocking scheme is
enabled via block lock-bits. The block lock-bits gate
program and erase operations With WP#=V,,,
individual block lock-bits can be set using the Set
Block Lock-Bit command. See Table 13 for a
summary of hardware and software write protection
options.
Set block lock-bit is executed by a two-cycle
command sequence. The set block lock-bit setup
along with appropriate block or device address is
written followed by either the set block lock-bit
confirm (and an address within the block to be
locked). The WSM then controls the set block lock-bit
algorithm. After the sequence is written, the device
automatically outputs status register data when read
(see Figure 12). The CPU can detect the completion
of the set block lock-bit event by analyzing the STS
pin output or status register bit SR.7.
When the set block lock-bit operation is complete,
status register bit SR.4 should be checked. If an error
is detected, the status register should be cleared.
The CUI will remain in read status register mode until
a new command is issued.
This two-step sequence of set-up followed by
execution ensures that block lock-bits are not
accidentally set. An invalid Set Block Lock-Bit
command will result in status register bits SR.4 and
SR.5 being set -to “1”. Also, reliable operations occur

5 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
5.1 Three-Line Output Control
The device will often be used in large memory arrays.
SHARP provides three control inputs to
xcommodate multiple memory connections. ThreeJne control provides for:
a. Lowest possible memory power dissipation.
b. Complete assurance that data bus contention will
not occur.
To use these control inputs efficiently, an address
decoder should enable CE# while OE# should be
connected to all memory devices and the system’s
READ#icontrol line. This assures that only selected
memory devices
deselected memory devices are in standby mode.
RP# should be connected to the system
POWERGOOD signal to prevent unintended writes
juring system power transitions. POWERGOOD
should also toggle during system reset.

transitions low after block erase,, full chip erase,

commands and returns tP V,, when the WSM has
finished executing the internal algorithm. For

30
STS, in default mode, is also High Z when the device
is in block erase suspend (with (multi) word/byte write
inactive), (multi) word/byte write suspend or deep
power-down modes.
5.3 Power Supply Decoupling
Flash memory power switching characteristics require
careful device decoupling. System designers are
interested in three supply current issues: standby
current levels, active current levels and transient
peaks produced by falling and rising edges of CE#
and OE#. Transient current magnitudes depend on
the device outputs’ capacitive and inductive loading.
Two-line control and proper decoupling capacitor
selection will suppress transient voltage peaks. Each
device should have a O.lpF ceramic capacitor
connected between its Vcc and GND and between its
V,, and GND. These high-frequency, low inductance
capacitors should be placed as close as possible to
package leads. Additionally, for every eight devices,
a 4.7l.1F electrolytic capacitor should be placed at the
array’s power supply connection between Vc, and
GND. The bulk capacitor will overcome voltage
slumps caused by PC board trace inductance.
5.4 Vpp Trace on Printed Circuit Boards
Updating flash memories that reside in the target
system requires that the printed circuit board
designer pay attention to the V,, Power supply trace.
The V,, pin supplies the memory cell current for
block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write
and block lock-bit configuration. Use similar trace
widths and layout considerations given to the V,c
power bus. Adequate V,, supply traces and
decoupling will decrease V,, voltage spikes and
overshoots.
STS can be connected to an interrupt input of the
system CPU or controller. It is active at all times.

5.5 VCC, Vpp, RP# Transitions
Block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write
and block lock-bit configuration are not guaranteed if
VP, falls outside of a valid VPPH1,2/3 range, Vcc falls
outside of a valid Vccl,s range, or RP#=VIL. If V,,
error is detected, status register bit SR.3 is set to “1”
along with SR.4 or SR.5, depending on the attempted
operation. If RP# transitions to V,, during block
erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write or block
lock-bit configuration, STS(if set to RY/BY# mode)
will remain low until the reset operation is complete.
Then, the operation will abort and the device will
enter deep power-down. The aborted operation may
leave data partially altered. Therefore, the command
sequence must be repeated after normal operation is
restore& Device power-off or RP# transitions to V,,

The CUI latches commands issued by system
software and is not altered by Vpp or CE# transitions
or WSM actions. Its state is read array mode upon
power-up, after exit from deep power-down or after
Vcc transitions below VLkO.
After block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte
write or block lock-bit configuration, even after V,,
transitions down to VPPLK, the CUI must be placed in
read array mode via the Read Array command if
subsequent access to the memory array is desired.
status
register.
5.6 Power-Up/Down Protection
The device is designed to offer protection against
accidental blqck and full chip , erasure, (multi)
word/byte writihg or block lock-bit configuration during
power transitions. Upon. power-up, the device is
indifferent as to which power supply (V,, or Vco)
31
powers-up first. Internal circuitry resets the CUI tc
read array mode at power-up.
A system designer must guard against spuriou:
writes for Vcc voltages above VLKO when V,, i:
active. Since both WE# and CE# must be low for 2
command write, driving either to V,, will inhibit writes
The CUl’s two-step command sequence architecture
provides added level of protection against datz
alteration.
In-system block lock and unlock capability prevents
inadvertent data alteration. The device is disablec
while RP#=V,, regardless of its control inputs state.
5.7 Power Dissipation
When designing portable systems, designers musi
consider battery power consumption not only during
device operation, but also for data retention during
system idle time. Flash memory’s nonvolatility
increases usable battery life because data is retained
when system power is removed.
In addition, deep power-down mode ensures
extremely low power consumption even when system
power is applied. For example, portable computing
products and other power sensitive applications thai
use an array of devices for solid-state storage can
consume negligible power by lowering RP# to V,,
standby or sleep modes. If access is again needed,
the devices can be read following the t,,Qv and
tPHWL wake-up cycles required after RP# is first
raised to V,,. See AC Characteristics- Read Only
and Write Operations and Figures 17, 18, 19, 20 for
more information.

MOTES:
1. If RP# is asserted while a block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write or block lock-bit configuration
operation is not executing, the reset will complete within 1 OOns.
3. A reset time, tpHov,
is required from the latter of STS going High Z or RP# going high until outputs are valid.
3. When the device power-up, holding RP# low minimum 1OOns is required after Vcc has been in predefined range
and also has been in stable there.

Flash memory LHFXKXX family Data Protection
Noises having a level exceeding the limit specified in the specification may be
generated under specific operating conditions on some systems.
Such noises, when induced onto WE# signal or power supply, may be interpreted as false
commands, causing undesired memory updating.
To protect the data stored in the flash memory against unwanted overwriting, systems
operating with the flash memory should have the following write protect designs, as
appropriate:
1) Protecting data in specific block
Setting the lock bit of the desired block and pulling WP# low disables the writing
operation on that block. By using this feature, the flash memory space can be divided
into, for example, the program section(locked section) and data section(unlocked
set t ion).
By controlling WP#, desired blocks can be locked/unlocked through the software.
For further information on setting/resetting block bit, refer to the specification.
(See chapter 4.12 and 4.13.)
2) Data protection through Vpp
When the level of Vpp is lower than VPPLK (lockout voltage), write operation on the
flashmemory is disabled. All blocks are lockedandthedata intheblocksarecompletely
write protected. ..’
For the l&kout voltage, refer to the specification. (See chapter 6.2.3. >
3) Data protection through RP#
When the RP# is kept low during power up and power down sequence such as voltage
transition, write operation on the flash memory is disabled, write protecting all
blocks.
For the detai 1s of RP# control, refer to the specification. (See chapter 5.6 and 6.27. )
