The M36W416TG is a low voltage Multiple Memory Product which combines two me mory devices;
a 16 Mbit boot block F lash memory and a 4 Mbit
SRAM. Recommended operating conditions do
not allow both the F lash memory and the S RAM
memory to be active at the same time.
The memory is offered in a Stacked LFBGA66
(12x8mm, 8 x 8 active ball, 0.8 mm pitch) package
and is supplied with all the bits erased (set to ‘1’).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
See Figure 2 Logic Diagram and Table 1, Sign al
Names, for a brief overview of the signals connected to this de vice.
Address Inputs (A0-A17). Addresses A0-A17
are common inputs for the Flash an d the SRAM
components. The Address Inputs select the cells
in the memory array to access during Bu s Read
operations. During Bus Write operations they control the commands sent to the Command Interface
of the internal state machine. The Flash memory is
accessed through the Chip Enable (
Enable (W
) signals, while the SRAM i s acce sse d
F
through two Chip Enable ( ES
(W
) signals.
S
Address Inputs (A18-A19). Addresses A18-A19
are inputs for the Flash component only. The
Flash memory is acc essed through the Chip E n-
E
able (
) and Write Enable (WF) signals
F
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ15). The Data I/

F
activates the Flash memory control logic, input
buffers, decoders and sense amplifiers. When
Chip Enable is at V
and Reset is at VIH the device
IL
is in active mode. When Chip Enable is at V
memory is deselected, the outputs are high impedance and the power consumption is reduced to the
standby level.
Flash Output Enable (G
). The Output Enable
F
controls the data outputs during the Bus Read operation of the Flash memory.
W
Flash Write Enable (
). The Write Enable con-
F
trols the Bus Write operation of the Flash m emory’s Command Interface. The data and address
inputs are latched on the rising e dge of Chip Enable,
E
, or Write Enable, WF, whichever occurs
F
first .
Flash Write Protect (WP
). Write Protect is an
F
input that gives an additional hardware protection
for each block. When Write Protect is at V
Lock-Down is enabled and the protection status of
the block cannot be changed. When Write Protect
is at V
, the Lock-Down is disabled and the block
IH
can be locked or unlocked. (refer to T able 6, Read
Protection Register and Protection Register Lock).
Flash Reset (RP
). The Reset input provides a
F
hardware reset of the Flash memory. When Reset
is at V
, the memory is in reset mode: the outputs
IL
are high impedance and the current c onsumption
is minimized. After Reset all blocks are in the

FLASH DEVICE
The M36W416TG contains one 16 Mbit Flash
memory. This section describes how to use the
FLASH SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The Flash Memory is a 16 Mb it (1 Mb it x 16) nonvolatile device that can be erased electrically at
the block level and prog rammed in-system on a
Word-by-Word basis. These operations can be
performed using a single low voltage (2.7 to 3.6V)
supply. V

vided to speed up customer programming.
The device features an asymmetrical blocked architecture with an array of 39 blocks: 8 Parameter
Blocks of 4 KWords and 31 Main Blocks of 32
KWords. The M36W416TG has the Parameter
Blocks at the top of the memory address space
while the M36W416BG locates the Parameter
Blocks starting from the bottom. The memory
maps are shown in Figure 10, Block Addresses.
The Flash Memory features an instant, individual
block locking scheme that allows any block to be
locked or unlocked with no latency, enabling instant code and data protection. All blocks have
three levels of protection. They can be locked and
locked-down individually preventing any accidental programming or erasure. There is an additional
hardware protection against program and erase.

Each block can be erased separately. Erase can
be suspended in order to perform either read or
program in any other block and then resumed.
Program can be suspended to read data in any
other block and then resumed. Each block can be
programmed and erased over 100,000 cycles.
The device includes a 128 b it Protection Register
and a Security Block to increase the protection of
a system design. The Protection Register is divided into two 64 bit segments, the first one contains
a unique device number written by ST, while the
second one is one-time-programmable by the user. The user programmable segm ent can be permanently protected. The Security Block,
parameter block 0, can be permanentl y protected
by the user. Figure 11, shows the Flash Security
Block Memory Map.
Program and Erase command s are written to the
Command Interface of the memory. An on-chip
Program/Erase Controller takes care of the timings necessary for program and erase operations.
The end of a program or erase operation can be
detected and any error conditions identified. The
command set required to control the memory is
consistent with JEDEC standards.

FLASH BUS OPERATIONS
There are six standard bus operations that control
the device. These are Bus Read, Bus Wri te, Output Disable, Standby, Automatic Standby and Reset. See Table 2, Main Operation Modes, for a
summary.
Typically glitches of less than 5ns on Chip Enable
or Write Enable are ignored by the memory and do
not affect bus operations.
Read. Read Bus operations are used to output
the contents of the Memory Array, the Electronic
Signature, the Status Register and the Common
Flash Interface. Both Chip Enable and Output Enable must be at V
in order to perform a read op-
IL
eration. The Chip Enable input should be used t o
enable the device. Out put E nable shoul d be used
to gate data onto th e output. The data read depends on the previous command written to the
memory (see Command Interface section). See
Figure 12, Flash Read Mode AC W av eforms , and
Table 18, Flash Read AC Chara cteristics, for details of when the output becomes valid.
Read mode is the default state of the device when
exiting Reset or after power-up.
Write. Bus Write operations write Comm ands to
the memory or latch Input Data to be programmed.
A write operation is initiated when Chip Enable
and Write Enable are at V
V
. Commands, Input Data and Addresses are
IH
with Output Enable at
IL
latched on the rising edge of Write Enable or Chip
Enable, whichever occurs first.
See Figures 13 and 14, Flash Write AC Waveforms, and Tables 19 and 20, Flash Write AC
M36W416TG, M36W416BG
Characteristics, for details of the timing requirements.
Output Disa bl e . The data outputs are high impedance when the Output Enable is at V
Standby. Stan dby disables most of the inte rnal
circuitry allowing a substantial reduction of the current consumption. The memory is in stand-by
when Chip Enable is at V
and the device is in
IH
read mode. The power consumption is reduced to
the stand-by level and the o utputs are set to high
impedance, independently from the Output Enable
or Write Enable inputs. If Chip Enable switches to
vides a low power consumption state during Read
mode. Following a read operation, the device enters Automatic Standby after 150ns of bus inactivity even if Chip Enable is Low, V
current is reduced to I
. The data I nputs/Out-
DD1
, and the supply
IL
puts will still output data if a bus Read operation is
in progress.
Reset. During Reset mode when Output Enable
is Low, V
, the memory is deselected and the out-
IL
puts are high impedance. The memory is in Reset
mode when Reset is at V
. The power consump-
IL
tion is reduced to the Standby level, independently
from the Chip Enable, Output Enable or Write Enable inputs. If Reset is pulled to V
SS
gram or Erase, this operation is aborted and the
memory content is no longer valid.

FLASH COMMAND INTERFACE
All Bus Write operations t o the me mory are in terpreted by the Command Interface. Commands
consist of one or more sequential Bus Write operations. An internal Program/Erase Controller handles all timings and verifies the correct execution
of the Program and Erase commands. The Program/Erase Controller provides a Status Regi ster
whose output may be read at any time during, to
monitor the progress of the operat ion, or the Program/Erase states. See Appendix 29, Table 33,
Write State Machine Current/Next, for a summary
of the Command Interface.
The Command Interface is reset to Read mode
when power is first applied, when exiting from Reset or whenever V
mand sequences must be followed exactly. Any
invalid combination of commands will reset the device to Read mode. Refer to Table 10, Commands, in conjunction with the text descriptions
below.
Read Memory Array Command
The Read command returns the memory to its
Read mode. One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the Read Memory Array command and return
the memory to Read mode. Subsequ ent read operations will read the addressed location and output the data. When a device Reset occurs, the
memory defaults to Read mode.
Read Status Register Command
The Status Register indicates when a program or
erase operation is complete and the success or
failure of the operation itself. Issue a Read Status
Register command to rea d the Status Register’s
contents. Subsequent Bus Read op erations read
the Status Register at any address, u ntil another
command is issued. See Table 17, Status Register
Bits, for details on the definitions of the bits.
The Read Status Register command m ay be issued at any time, even during a Program/Erase
operation. Any Read attempt during a Program/
Erase operation will automatically output the content of the Status Register.
Read Electronic Signature Command
The Read Electronic Signature command reads
the Manufacturer and Device Codes and the Block
Locking Status, or the Protection Register.
The Read Electronic Signature command consists
of one write cycle, a subsequent read will ou tput
the Manufacturer Code, the Device Code, the
Block Lock and Lock-Down Status, or the Protection and Lock Register. See Tables 11, 12 and 13
for the valid address.
Read CFI Query Command
The Read Query Command is used to read dat a
from the Common Flash Interface (CFI) Memory
is lower than V
DD
LKO
. Com-
Area, allowing programming equi pment or applications to automatically match their interface to
the characteristics of the device. One Bus Write
cycle is required to issue the Read Query Command. Once the command is issued subsequent
Bus Read operations read from the Common
Flash Interface Memory Area. See Appendix B,
Common Flash Inte rface, Tables 27, 28, 29, 30,
31 and 32 for details on the information contained
in the Common Flash Interface memory area.
Block Erase Command
The Block Erase com mand can be used to erase
a block. It sets all the bits within the selected block
to ’1’. A ll previous data in t he block is lost. If the
block is protected then the Erase operation will
abort, the data in the block will not be changed and
the Status Register will output the error.
Two Bus Write cycles are required to issue the
command.
■ The first bus cycle sets up the Erase command.
■ The second latches the block address in the
internal state machine and starts the Program/
Erase Controller.
If the second bus cycle is not Write Erase Confirm
(D0h), Status Register bits b4 and b5 are set and
the command aborts.
Erase aborts if Reset turns to V
. As data integrity
IL
cannot be guaranteed when the Erase operation is
aborted, the block must be erased again.
During Erase operations the memory will accept
the Read Status Re gister com mand and the P rogram/Erase Suspend command, all other commands will be ignored. Typical Erase times are
given in Table 14, Program, Erase Times and Program/Erase Endurance Cycles.
See Appendix C, Figure 28 , Erase Flowchart and
Pseudo Code, for a suggested flowchart for us ing
the Erase command.
Program Command
The memory array can be programmed word-byword. Two bus write cycles are required to issue
the Program Command.
■ The first bus cycle sets up the Program
command.
■ The second latches the Address and the Data to
be written and starts the Program/Erase
Controller.
During Program operations the memory will accept the Read Status Register command and the
Program/Erase Suspend command. Typical Program times are given in Table 14, Program, Erase
Times and Program/Erase Endurance Cycles.
Programming aborts if Reset goe s to V
. As data
IL
integrity cannot be guaranteed when the program
22/62
M36W416TG, M36W416BG
operation is aborted, the block containing the
memory location must be erased and reprogrammed.
See Appendix C, Figure 25, Program Flowchart
and Pseudo Code, for the f lowchart for using the
Program command.
Double Word Program Command
This feature is offered to improve the programming
throughput, writing a page of two adjacent words
in parallel.The two words m ust differ only for the
address A0. Programm ing s hould not b e at t emp ted when V
is not at V
PP
be executed if V
is below V
PP
. The command can
PPFH
but the result is
PPFH
not guaranteed.
Three bus write cycles are necessary to issue the
Double Word Program command.
■ The first bus cycle sets up the Double Word
Program Command.
■ The second bus cycle latches the Address and
the Data of the first word to be written.
■ The third bus cycle latches the Address and the
Data of the second word to be written and starts
the Program/Erase Controller.
Read operations output the Status Register content after the programming has s tarted. Programming aborts if Res et goes to V
. As data integrity
IL
cannot be guaranteed when the program operation is aborted, the block containing the memory
location must be erased and reprogrammed.
See Appendix C, Figure 26, Double Word Program Flowchart and Pseudo Code, for the flowchart for using the Double Word Program
command.
Clear Status Register Command
The Clear Status Register comm and can be used
to reset bits 1, 3, 4 and 5 in the Status Register to
‘0’. One bus write cycle is required to issue the
Clear Status Register command.
The bits in the Status Register do not automatically return to ‘0’ when a new Program or Erase command is issued. The error bits in the Status
Register should be cleared before attempting a
new Program or Erase command.
Program/Erase Suspend Command
The Program/Erase Suspend command is used to
pause a Program or Erase operation. One bus
write cycle is required to issue the Program/Erase
command and pau se the Prog ram/Erase controller.
During Program/Erase Suspend the Command Interface will accept the Program/Erase Resume,
Read Array, Read Status Register, Read Electronic Signature and Read CFI Query commands. Additionally, if the suspend operation was Erase then
the Program, Block Lock, Block Lock-Down or
Protection Program commands will also be accepted. The block being erased may be protected
by issuing the Block Protect, Block Lock or Protection Program commands. When the Program/
Erase Resume comm and is issued the operation
will complete. Only the blocks not being erased
may be read or programmed correctly.

Program/Er ase Resume Command
The Program/Erase Resume command can be
used to restart the Program/Erase Controller after
a Program/Erase Suspend operation has paused
it. One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the
command. Once the command is issued subsequent Bus Read operations read the Status Register.

The Protection Register Program command is
used to Program the 64 bit user One-Time-Programmable (OTP) segment of the Protection Register. The segment is programmed 16 bits at a
time. When shipped all bits in the segment are set
to ‘1’. The user can only program the bits to ‘0’.
Two write cycles are required to issue the Protection Register Program command.
■ The first bus cycle sets up the Protection
Register Program command.
■ The second latches the Address and the Data to
be written to the Protection Register and starts
the Program/Erase Controller.
Read operations output the Status Register content after the programming has started.
The segment can be protected by programming bit
1 of the Protection Lock Register. Bit 1 of the Protection Lock Register prote cts bit 2 of the P rotection Lock Register. Programming bit 2 of the
Protection Lock Register will result in a permanent
protection of the Security Block (see Figure 11,
Flash Security Block and Protection Register
Memory Map). Attempting to program a previously
protected Protection Register will result in a Status
Register error. The protection of the Protection

Register and/or the Security Block is not reversible.
The Protection Register Program cannot be suspended. See Appendix C, Figure 31, Protection
Register Program Flowchart and Pseudo Code,
for the flowchart for using the P rotection Register
Program command.
Block Lock Command
The Block Lock command is used to lock a block
and prevent Program or Erase operations from
changing the data in it. All blocks are locked at
power-up or reset.
Two Bus Write cycles are required to issue the
Block Lock command.
■ The first bus cycle sets up the Block Lock
command.
■ The second Bus Write cycle latc hes the blo ck
address.
The lock status can be monitored for each block
using the Read Electronic Signature command.
Table. 16 shows the protection status after issuing
a Block Lock command.
The Block Lock bits are volatile, once set they remain set until a hardware reset or power-down/
power-up. They are cleared by a Blocks Unlock
command. Refer to the section, Block Locking, for
a detailed explanation.
Block Unlock Command
The Blocks Unlock command i s used to unlock a
block, allowing the block to be programmed or
erased. Two Bus Write cycles are requ ired to issue the Blocks Unlock command.

FLASH BLOCK LOCKING
The Flash memory features an instant, individual
block locking scheme that allows any block to be
locked or unlocked with no latency. This locking
scheme has three levels of protection.
■ Lock/Unlock - this first level allows software-
only control of block locking.
■ Lock-Down - this second level requires
hardware interaction before locking can be
changed.
■ V
PP
≤ V
- the third level offers a complete
PPLK
hardware protection against program and erase
on all blocks.
The lock status of each block can be set to
Locked, Unlocked, and Lock-Down. Table 16, defines all of the possible protection states (WP
DQ1, DQ0), and Appendi x C, Figure 30, shows a
flowchart for the locking operations.
Reading a Block’s Lock Status
The lock status of every block can be read in the
Read Electronic Signature mode of the device. To
enter this mode write 90h t o the device. Subsequent reads at the a ddress s pecified in Table 12,
will output the lock status of that block. The lock
status is represented by DQ0 and DQ1. DQ0 indicates the Block Lock/Unlock status and is se t by
the Lock command and cleared by the Unlock
command. It is also automatically set when entering Lock-Down. DQ1 indicates the Lock-Down status and is set by the Lock-Down command. It
cannot be cleared by software, only by a hardware
reset or power-down.
The following sections explain the operation of the
locking system.
Locked State
The default status of all blocks on power-up or after a hardware reset is Locked (states (0,0,1) or
(1,0,1)). Locked blocks are fully protected from
any program or erase. Any program or erase operations attempted on a locked block will return an
error in the Status Register. The Status of a
Locked block can be changed to Unlocked or
Lock-Down using the appropriate software commands. An Unlocked block can be Locked by issuing the Lock command.
Unlocked State
Unlocked blocks (states (0,0,0), (1,0,0) (1,1,0)),
can be programmed or erased. All unlocked
blocks return to the Locked state a ft er a hardware
reset or when the device is powered-down. The
status of an unlocked block can be changed to
Locked or Locked-Down using the appropriate
M36W416TG, M36W416BG
software commands. A locked block can be unlocked by issuing the Unlock command.
Lock-Down State
Blocks that are Locked-Down (state (0,1,x))are
protected from program and erase operations (as
for Locked blocks) but their lock status cannot be
changed using software commands alone. A
Locked or Unlocked block can be Locked-Down by
issuing the Lock-Down com mand. Locked-Down
blocks revert to the Locked state when the device
is reset or powered-down.
The Lock-Down function is dependent on the WP
input pin. When WPF=0 (VIL), the blocks in the
Lock-Down state (0,1,x) are protected from program, erase and protection status changes. When
WP
=1 (VIH) the Lock-Down function is disabled
,
F
F
(1,1,1) and Locked-Down blocks can be ind ividually unlocked to the (1,1,0) state by issuing the
software command, where they can be erased and
programmed. These blocks can then be relocked
(1,1,1) and unlocked (1,1,0) as desired while WP
remains high. When WPF is low , blocks that were
previously Locked-Down return to the Lock-Down
state (0,1,x) regardless of any changes made
while WP
was high. Device reset or power-down
F
resets all blocks , including those in Lock-Down, to
the Locked state.
Locking Operations During Erase Suspend
Changes to block lock status can be performed
during an erase suspend by using the standard
locking command sequences to unlock, lock or
lock-down a block. This is useful in the case when
another block needs to be updated while an erase
operation is in progress.
To change block locking during an erase operation, first write the Erase Suspend command, then
check the status register until it indicates that the
erase operation has been suspended. Next write
the desired Lock com mand sequence to a block
and the protection status will be changed. After
completing any desired lock, read, or program operations, resume the erase operation with the
Erase Resume command.
If a block is locked or locked-down during an erase
suspend of the same block, the locking status bits
will be changed immediately , but when the eras e
is resumed, the erase operation will complete.
Locking operations cannot be performed du ring a
program suspend. Refer to Appendix D, Command Interface and Program/Erase Controller
State, for detailed information on which commands are valid during erase suspend.
Note: 1. The p rotection st atus is de fined by th e write prot ect pin and by DQ1 (‘1’ for a l ocked-dow n block) and DQ0 (‘1’ for a locked block)
as read in the Read Electroni c Signatu re command with A1 = V
2. All blocks are loc ked at power-up, so the default config uration is 00 1 or 101 accor di ng to WP
3. A WP
transition to VIH on a locked block will restore the previous DQ0 value, giving a 111 or 110.

FLASH STATUS REGISTER
The Status Register provides information on t he
current or previous Program or Erase operation.
The various bits convey information and errors on
the operation. To read the Status register the
Read Status Register command can be issued, refer to Read Status Register Command section. To
output the contents, the Status Register is latched
on the falling edge of the Chip Enable or Output
Enable signals, and can be read until Chip Enable
or Output Enable returns to V
. Either Chip En-
IH
able or Output Enable must be toggled to update
the latched data.
Bus Read operations from any address always
read the Status Register during Program and
Erase operations.
The bits in the Status Register are summarized in
Table 17, Status Register Bits. Refer to Table 17
in conjunction with the following text descriptions.
Program/Erase Controller Status (Bit 7). The Progra m/Erase Controller Status bit indicates whether
the Program/Erase Controller is active or inactive.
When the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is
Low (set to ‘0’), the Program/Erase Controller is
active; when the bit is High (set to ‘1’), the Program/Erase Controller is inactive, and the device
is ready to process a new command.
The Program/Erase Controller Status is Low immediately after a Program/Erase Suspend command is issued until the Program/Erase Controller
pauses. After the Program/Erase Controller pauses the bit is High .
During Program, Erase, operations the Program/
Erase Controller Status bit can be polled to find the
end of the operation. Other bits in the Status Register should not be tested until the Program/Erase
Controller completes the operation and the bit is
High.
After the Program/Erase Cont roller completes its
operation the Erase Status, Prog ram Status, V
PP
Status and Block Lock Status bits should be tested
for errors.
Erase Suspend Status (Bit 6). The Erase Suspend Status bit indicates that an Erase o peration
has been suspended or is going to be suspended.
When the Erase Suspend Status bit is High (set to
‘1’), a Program/Erase Suspend command has
been issued and the memory is waiting for a Program/Erase Resume command.
The Erase Suspend Status should only be considered valid when the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is High (Program/Erase Controller inactive).
Bit 7 is set within 30µs of the Program/Erase Suspend command being issued therefore the memory may still complete the operation rather than
entering the Suspend mode.
M36W416TG, M36W416BG
When a Program/Erase Re sume command is issued the Erase Suspend Status bit returns Low.
Erase Status (Bit 5). The Erase Status bit can be
used to identify if the memory has failed to verify
that the block has erased correctly. When the
Erase Status bit is High (set t o ‘1’), the Program/
Erase Controller has applied the max imum number of pulses to the block and still failed to verify
that the block has erased correctly. The Erase Status bit should be read once the Program/Erase
Controller Status bit is High (Program/Erase Controller inactive).
Once set High, the Erase Status bit can only be reset Low by a Clear Status Register command or a
hardware reset. If set High it should be reset before a new Program or Erase command is issued,
otherwise the new command will appear to fail.
Program Status (Bit 4). The Program Status bit
is used to identify a Program failure. When the
Program Status bit is High (set to ‘1’), the Program/Erase Controller has applied the maximum
number of pulses to the byte and still failed to verify that it has programmed correctly. The Program
Status bit should be read once the Program/Erase
Controller Status bit is High (Program/Erase Controller inactive).
Once set High, the Program Status bit can only be
reset Low by a Clear Status Register command or
a hardware reset. If set High it should be reset before a new command is issued, otherwise the new
command will appear to fail.
Status (Bit 3). The VPP Status bit can be
V

used to identify an invalid volt age on the V
during Program and Erase operations. The V
pin is only sampled at the beginning of a Program
or Erase operation. Indeterminate results can occur if V

Once set High, the V
Status bit can only be reset
PP
Low by a Clear Status Register command or a
hardware reset. If set High it should be reset before a new Program or Erase command is issued,
otherwise the new command will appear to fail.
Program Suspend Status (Bit 2). The Program
Suspend Status bit indicates that a Program operation has been suspended. When the Program
Suspend Status bit is High (set to ‘1’), a Program/
Erase Suspend command has been issued and
the memory is waiting for a Program/Erase Resume command. The Program Suspend Status
should only be considered valid when the Pro-
PP

gram/Erase Controller Status bit is High (Program/
Erase Controller inactive). Bit 2 is set wi thin 5µs of
the Program/Erase Suspend comm and being issued therefore the memory may still complete t he
operation rather than entering the Suspend mode.
When a Program/Erase Re sume command is issued the Program Suspend Status bit returns Low.
Block Protection Status (Bit 1). The Block Protection Status bit can be used to identify if a Program or Erase operation has tried to modify the
contents of a locked block.
When the Block Protection Status bit is High (set
to ‘1’), a Program or Erase operation has been attempted on a locked block.
Once set High, the Block Protection Status bit can
only be reset Low by a Clear Status Register command or a hardware reset. If set High it should be
reset before a new command is issued, otherwise
the new command will appear to fail.
Reserved (Bit 0). Bit 0 of the Status Register is
reserved. Its value must be masked.

SRAM SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The SRAM is a 4 Mbit asynchronous random access memory which features super low voltage operation and low current consumption with an
access time of 70 ns under all conditions. The

memory operations can be performed using a single low voltage supply, 2.7V to 3.3V, which is the
same as the Flash component’s voltage supply.

SRAM OPERATIONS
There are five standard operations that control the
SRAM component. These are Bus Read, Bus
Write, Standby/Power-down, Data Retention and
Output Disable. A summary is shown in Table 2,
Main Operation Modes
Read. Read operations are used to output the
contents of the SRAM Array. The SRAM is in Read
mode whenever Write Enable, W

IL
the Byte Enable inputs, UB
, is at VIL, Chip Enable , E1S, is at

Valid data will be available on the output pins after
a time of t

Write. Write operations are used to write da ta to
the SRAM. The SRAM is in Write mode whenever

A Write operation is initiated when E1

If the Output is enabled (E1

Standby/Power-Down. The SRAM component
has a chip enabled power-down feature wh ich invokes an automatic standby mode (see Table 22,
Figure 19). The SRAM is in Standby mode whenever either Chip Enable is deas serted, E1
or E2S at VIL. It is also possible when UBS and LB
are at VIH.
Data Retention. The SRAM data retention performance as V
goes down to VDR are de-

scribed in Table 24 and Figure 24. In E1

standby current mode is entered when

The Common Flash Interface is a JEDEC approved, standardized data structure that can be
read from the Flash memory device. It allows a
system software to query the device to det ermine
various electrical and t iming parameters, density
information and functions supported by the memory. The system can interface easily with the device, enabling the software to upgrade itself when
necessary.
When the CFI Query Co mmand (RCFI) is issued
the device enters CFI Query mode and the data

structure is read from the memory. Tables 27, 28,
29, 30, 31 and 32 show the addresses used to retrieve the data.
The CFI data structure also contains a security
area where a 64 bit unique security number is written (see Table 32, Security Code area). This area
can be accessed only in Read mode by the final
user. It is impossible to change the security num ber after it has been written by ST. Issue a Read
command to return to Read mode.
