2.0 Device Description

This section provides an overview of the Intel®Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory (C3) device features, packaging, signal naming, and device architecture.

2.1 Product Overview

The C3 device provides high-performance asynchronous reads in package-compatible densities with a 16 bit data bus. Individually-erasable memory blocks are optimally sized for code and data storage. Eight 4 Kword parameter blocks are located in the boot block at either the top or bottom of the device’s memory map. The rest of the memory array is grouped into 32 Kword main blocks.
The device supports read-array mode operations at various I/O voltages (1.8 V and 3 V) and erase and program operations at 3 V or 12 V VPP. With the 3 V I/O option, VCC and VPP can be tied together for a simple, ultra-low-power design. In addition to I/O voltage flexibility, the dedicated VPP input provides complete data protection when V
The device features a 128-bit protection register enabling security techniques and data protection schemes through a combination of factory-programmed and user-programmable OTP data registers. Zero-latency locking/unlocking on any memory block provides instant and complete protection for critical system code and data. Additional block lock-down capability provides hardware protection where software commands alone cannot change the block’s protection status.

.
A command User Interface(CUI) serves as the interface between the system processor and internal operation of the device. A valid command sequence issued to the CUI initiates device automation. An internal Write State Machine (WSM) automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration operations.
The device offers three low-power saving features: Automatic Power Savings (APS), standby mode, and deep power-down mode. The device automatically enters APS mode following read cycle completion. Standby mode begins when the system deselects the flash memory by deasserting CE#. The deep power-down mode begins when RP# is asserted, which deselects the memory and places the outputs in a high-impedance state, producing ultra-low power savings. Combined, these three power-savings features significantly enhanced power consumption flexibility.

2.2 Ballout Diagram

The C3 device is available in 48-lead TSOP, 48-ball VF BGA, 48-ball µBGA, and Easy BGA
packages. (Refer to Figure1onpage9, Figure 3 on page 11,andFigure 4 on page 12, respectively.)

DATA INPUTS/OUTPUTS: Inputs data and commands during a write cycle; outputs data during read
cycles. Inputs commands to the Command User Interface when CE# and WE# are active. Data is internally latched. The data pins float to tri-state when the chip is de-selected or the outputs are disabled.
CHIP ENABLE: Active-low input. Activates the internal control logic, input buffers, decoders and sense
amplifiers. CE# is active low. CE# high de-selects the memory device and reduces power consumption to standby levels.
OUTPUT ENABLE: Active-low input. Enables the device’s outputs through the data buffers during a
Read operation.
RESET/DEEP POWER-DOWN: Active-low input.
When RP# is at logic low, the device is in reset/deep power-down mode, which drives the outputs to High-Z, resets the Write State Machine, and minimizes current levels (I
When RP# is at logic high, the device is in standard operation. When RP# transitions from logic-low to logic-high, the device resets all blocks to locked and defaults to the read array mode.
WRITE ENABLE: Active-low input. WE# controls writes to the device. Address and data are latched on
therisingedgeoftheWE#pulse.
WRITE PROTECT: Active-low input.
When WP# is a logic low, the lock-down mechanism is enabled and blocks marked lock-down cannot be unlocked through software.
When WP# is logic high, the lock-down mechanism is disabled and blocks previously locked-down are now locked and can be unlocked and locked through software. After WP# goes low, any blocks previously marked lock-down revert to the lock-down state.
See Section 5.0, “Security Modes” on page 27 for details on block locking.
PROGRAM/ERASE POWER SUPPLY: Operates as an input at logic levels to control complete device
protection. Supplies power for accelerated Program and Erase operations in 12 V cannot be left floating.
Lower VPP
Set VPP = VCC for in-system Read, Program and Erase operations. In this configuration, VPP can drop as low as 1.65 V to allow for resistor or diode drop from the system supply.
Apply VPP to 12 V to VPP can only be done for a maximum of 1000 cycles on the main blocks and 2500 cycles on the boot blocks. VPP may be connected to 12 V for a total of 80 hours maximum. See Section 5.6 for details on VPP voltage configurations.
DEVICE CORE POWER SUPPLY: Supplies power for device operations.
OUTPUT POWER SUPPLY: Output-driven source voltage. This ball can be tied directly to V
operating within V
GROUND: For all internal circuitry. All ground inputs must be connected.
DON’T USE: Do not use this ball. This ball should not be connected to any power supplies, signals or
other balls, and must be left floating.
NO CONNECT: Pin must be left floating.

3.0 Device Operations

The C3 device uses a CUI and automated algorithms to simplify Program and Erase operations. The CUI allows for 100% CMOS programming.
The internal WSM completely automates Program and Erase operations while the CUI signals the start of an operation and the status register reports device status. The CUI handles the WE# interface to the data and address latches, as well as system status requests during WSM operation.

3.1 Bus Operations

The C3 device performs read, program, and erase operations in-system via the local CPU or microcontroller. Four control pins (CE#, OE#, WE#, and RP#) manage the data flow in and out of the flash device. Table 5 on page 17 summarizes these bus operations.

3.1.1 Read

When performing a read cycle, CE# and OE# must be asserted; WE# and RP# must be deasserted. CE# is the device selection control; when active low, it enables the flash memory device. OE# is the data output control; when low, data is output on DQ[15:0]. See Figure 8, “Read Operation
Wav ef orm” on page 42.

3.1.2 Write

A write cycle occurs when both CE# and WE# are low; RP# and OE# are high. Commands are issued to the Command User Interface (CUI). The CUI does not occupy an addressable memory location. Address and data are latched on the rising edge of the WE# or CE# pulse, whichever occurs first. See Figure 9, “Write Operations Waveform” on page 47.

Intel£Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory (C3)

3.1.4 Standby

Deselecting the device by bringing CE# to a logic-high level (VIH) places the device in standby mode, which substantially reduces device power consumption without any latency for subsequent read accesses. In standby, outputs are placed in a high-impedance state independent of OE#. If deselected during a Program or Erase operation, the device continues to consume active power until the Program or Erase operation is complete.

3.1.5 Reset

From read mode, RP# at VILfor time t impedance state, and turns off all internal circuits. After return from reset, a time t until the initial read-access outputs are valid. A delay (t reset before a write cycle can be initiated. After this wake

As with any automated device, it is important to assert RP# during a system reset. When the system comes out of reset, the processor expects to read from the flash memory. Automated flash memories provide status information when read during program or Block-Erase operations. 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. Intel
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.
18 Datasheet

4.0 Modes of Operation

4.1 Read Mode

The flash memory has four read modes (read array, read identifier, read status, and CFI query), and two write modes (program and erase). Three additional modes (erase suspend to program, erase suspend to read, and program suspend to read) are available only during suspended operations.
Table 7, “Command Bus Operations” on page 24 and Table 8, “Command Codes and Descriptions”onpage25summarize the commands used to reach these modes. Appendix A, “Write State Machine States” on page 50 is a comprehensive chart showing the state transitions.

4.1.1 Read Array

When RP# transitions from VIL(reset) to VIH, the device defaults to read-array mode and will respond to the read-control inputs (CE#, address inputs, and OE#) without any additional CUI commands.
When the device is in read array mode, four control signals control data output.

In addition, the address of the desired location must be applied to the address pins. If the device is not in read-array mode, as would be the case after a Program or Erase operation, the Read Array command (0xFF) must be issued to the CUI before array reads can occur.

4.1.2 Read Identifier

The read-identifier mode outputs three types of information: the manufacturer/device identifier, the block locking status, and the protection register. The device is switched to this mode by issuing the Read Identifier command (0x90). Once in this mode, read cycles from addresses shown in Table 6 retrieve the specified information. To return to read-array mode, issue the Read Array command (0xFF).

4.1.3 CFI Query

The CFI query mode outputs Common Flash Interface (CFI) data after issuing the Read Query Command (0x98). The CFI data structure contains information such as block size, density, command set, and electrical specifications. Once in this mode, read cycles from addresses shown in
Appendix C, “Common Flash Interface,” retrieve the specified information. To return to read-array
mode, issue the Read Array command (0xFF).

4.1.4 Read Status Register

The status register indicates the status of device operations, and the success/failure of that operation. The Read Status Register (0x70) command causes subsequent reads to output data from the status register until another command is issued. To return to reading from the array, issue a Read Array (0xFF) command.
The status-register bits are output on DQ[7:0]. The upper byte, DQ[15:8], outputs 0x00 when a Read Status Register command is issued.
20 Datasheet
The contents of the status register are latched on the falling edge of OE# or CE# (whichever occurs last) which prevents possible bus errors that might occur if Status Register contents change while being read. CE# or OE# must be toggled with each subsequent status read, or the Status Register will not indicate completion of a Program or Erase operation.
When the WSM is active, SR[7] will indicate the status of the WSM; the remaining bits in the status register indicate whether the WSM was successful in performing the preferred operation (see
Table 9, “Status Register Bit Definition” on page 26).
4.1.4.1 Clear Status Register
The WSM can set Status Register bits 1 through 7 and can clear bits 2, 6, and 7; but, the WSM cannot clear Status Register bits 1, 3, 4 or 5. Because bits 1, 3, 4, and 5 indicate various error conditions, these bits can be cleared only through the Clear Status Register (0x50) command. By allowing the system software to control the resetting of these bits, several operations may be performed (such as cumulatively programming several addresses or erasing multiple blocks in sequence) before reading the status register to determine if an error occurred during that series. Clear the status register before beginning another command or sequence. The Read Array command must be issued before data can be read from the memory array. Resetting the device also clears the Status Register.
Intel£Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory (C3)

4.2 Program Mode

Programming is executed using a two-write cycle sequence. The Program Setup command (0x40) is issued to the CUI followed by a second write which specifies the address and data to be programmed. The WSM will execute a sequence of internally timed events to program preferred bits of the addressed location, then verify the bits are sufficiently programmed. Programming the memory results in specific bits within an address location being changed to a “0.” If users attempt to program “1”s, the memory cell contents do not change and no error occurs.
The Status Register indicates programming status. While the program sequence executes, status bit 7 is “0.” The status register can be polled by toggling either CE# or OE#. While programming, the only valid commands are Read Status Register, Program Suspend, and Program Resume.
When programming is complete, the program-status bits should be checked. If the programming operation was unsuccessful, bit SR[4] of the Status Register is set to indicate a program failure. If SR[3] is set, then V command. If SR[1] is set, a program operation was attempted on a locked block and the operation was aborted.
The status register should be cleared before attempting the next operation. Any CUI instruction can follow after programming is completed; however, to prevent inadvertent status-register reads, be sure to reset the CUI to read-array mode.

The 12 V VPPmode enhances programming performance during the short period of time typically found in manufacturing processes; however, it is not intended for extended use. 12 V may be applied to VPP during Program and Erase operations for a maximum of 1000 cycles on the main blocks and 2500 cycles on the parameter blocks. VPP may be connected to 12 V for a total of 80 hours maximum. Stressing the device beyond these limits may cause permanent damage.

4.2.2 Suspending and Resuming Program

The Program Suspend command halts an in-progress program operation so that data can be read from other locations of memory. Once the programming process starts, issuing the Program Suspend command to the CUI requests that the WSM suspend the program sequence at predetermined points in the program algorithm. The device continues to output status-register data after the Program Suspend command is issued. Polling status-register bits SR[7] and SR[2] will determine when the program operation has been suspended (both will be set to “1”). t t
A Read-Array command can now be issued to the CUI to read data from blocks other than that which is suspended. The only other valid commands while program is suspended are Read Status Register, Read Identifier, CFI Query, and Program Resume.
After the Program Resume command is issued to the flash memory, the WSM will continue with the programming process and status register bits SR[2] and SR[7] will automatically be cleared. The device automatically outputs status register data when read (see Figure 14, “Program Suspend

4.3 Erase Mode

To erase a block, issue the Erase Set-up and Erase Confirm commands to the CUI, along with an address identifying the block to be erased. This address is latched internally when the Erase Confirm command is issued. Block erasure results in all bits within the block being set to “1.” Only one block can be erased at a time. The WSM will execute a sequence of internally timed events to program all bits within the block to “0,” erase all bits within the block to “1,” then verify that all bits within the block are sufficiently erased. While the erase executes, status bit 7 is a “0.”
When the status register indicates that erasure is complete, check the erase-status bit to verify that the Erase operation was successful. If the Erase operation was unsuccessful, SR[5] of the status register will be set to a “1,” indicating an erase failure. If V the Erase Confirm command was issued, the WSM will not execute the erase sequence; instead, SR[5] of the status register is set to indicate an erase error, and SR[3] is set to a “1” to identify that

4.3.1 Suspending and Resuming Erase

Since an Erase operation requires on the order of seconds to complete, an Erase Suspend command is provided to allow erase another block in memory. Once the erase sequence is started, issuing the Erase Suspend command to the CUI suspends the erase sequence at a predetermined point in the erase algorithm. The status register will indicate if/when the Erase operation has been suspended. Erase-suspend latency is specified by t

A Read Array or Program command can now be issued to the CUI to read/program data from/to blocks other than that which is suspended. This nested Program command can subsequently be suspended to read yet another location. The only valid commands while Erase is suspended are Read Status Register, Read Identifier, CFI Query, Program Setup, Program Resume, Erase Resume, Lock Block, Unlock Block, and Lock-Down Block. During erase-suspend mode, the chip can be placed in a pseudo consumption.

This command places the device in read-array mode, which outputs array data on the data pins.
This is a two second cycle latches addresses and data information and initiates the WSM to execute the Program algorithm. The flash outputs status-register data when CE# or OE# is toggled. A Read Array command is required after programming to read array data. See Section 4.2, “Program
Mode” on page 21.
This is a two command is not an Erase Confirm command, then the CUI will (a) set both SR.4 and SR.5 of the status register to a “1,” (b) place the device into the read-status-register mode, and (c) wait for another command. See Section 4.3, “Erase Mode” on page 22.
If the previous command was an Erase Set-Up command, then the CUI will close the address and data latches and begin erasing the block indicated on the address pins. During program/ erase, the device will respond only to the Read Status Register, Program Suspend and Erase Suspend commands, and will output status-register data when CE# or OE# is toggled.
If a Program or Erase operation was previously suspended, this command will resume that operation.
If the previous command was Block Unlock Set-Up, the CUI will latch the address and unlock the block indicated on the address pins. If the block had been previously set to Lock-Down, this operation will have no effect. (See Section 5.1)
Issuing this command will begin to suspend the currently executing Program/Erase operation. The status register will indicate when the operation has been successfully suspended by setting either the program-suspend SR[2] or erase-suspend SR[6] and the WSM status bit SR[7] to a “1” (ready). The WSM will continue to idle in the SUSPEND state, regardless of the state of all input-control pins except RP#, which will immediately shut down the WSM and the remainderofthechipifRP#isdriventoV
This command places the device into read-status-register mode. Reading the device will output the contents of the status register, regardless of the address presented to the device. The device automatically enters this mode after a Program or Erase operation has been initiated. See Section 4.1.4, “Read Status Register” on page 20.
The WSM can set the block-lock status SR[1], V erase-status SR[5] bits in the status register to “1,” but it cannot clear them to “0.” Issuing this command clears those bits to “0.”

5.0 Security Modes

5.1 Flexible Block Locking

The C3 device offers an instant, individual block-locking scheme that allows any block to be locked or unlocked with no latency, enabling instant code and data protection.
This locking scheme offers two levels of protection. The first level allows software-only control of block locking (useful for data blocks that change frequently), while the second level requires hardware interaction before locking can be changed (useful for code blocks that change infrequently).
The following sections will discuss the operation of the locking system. The term “state [abc]” will be used to specify locking states; e.g., “state [001],” where a = value of WP#, b = bit D1 of the Block Lock status register, and c = bit D0 of the Block Lock status register. Figure 5, “Block
Locking State Diagram” on page 27 displays all of the possible locking states.

5.1.1 Locking Operation

The locking status of each block can be set to Locked, Unlocked, or Lock-Down, each of which will be described in the following sections. See Figure 5, “Block Locking State Diagram” on
page 27 and Figure 17, “Locking Operations Flowchart” on page 56.
The following concisely summarizes the locking functionality.
5.1.1.1 Locked State
The default state of all blocks upon power-up or reset is locked (states [001] or [101]). Locked blocks are fully protected from alteration. Any Program or Erase operations attempted on a locked block will return an error on bit SR[1] of the Status Register. The state of a locked block can be changed to Unlocked or Lock Down using the appropriate software commands. An Unlocked block can be locked by writing the Lock command sequence, 0x60 followed by 0x01.
5.1.1.2 Unlocked State
Unlocked blocks (states [000], [100], [110]) can be programmed or erased. All unlocked blocks return to the Locked state when the device is reset or powered down. The status of an unlocked block can be changed to Locked or Locked Down using the appropriate software commands. A Locked block can be unlocked by writing the Unlock command sequence, 0x60 followed by 0xD0.
5.1.1.3 Lock-Down State
Blocks that are Locked-Down (state [011]) are protected from Program and Erase operations (just like Locked blocks), but their protection status cannot be changed using software commands alone. A Locked or Unlocked block can be Locked Down by writing the Lock-Down command sequence, 0x60 followed by 0x2F. Locked-Down blocks revert to the Locked state when the device is reset or powered down.
The Lock-Down function depends on the WP# input pin. When WP# = 0, blocks in Lock Down [011] are protected from program, erase, and lock status changes. When WP# = 1, the Lock-Down function is disabled ([111]) and Locked-Down blocks can be individually unlocked by software command to the [110] state, where they can be erased and programmed. These blocks can then be relocked [111] and unlocked [110] as required while WP# remains high. When WP# goes low, blocks that were previously Locked Down return to the Lock-Down state [011], regardless of any changes made while WP# was high. Device reset or power-down resets all blocks, including those in Lock-Down, to Locked state.

5.2 Reading Block-Lock Status

The Lock status of each block can be read in read-identifier mode of the device by issuing the read­identifier command (0x90). Subsequent reads at Block Address + 0x00002 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 set by the Lock command and cleared by the Unlock command. It is also automatically set when entering Lock Down. DQ1 indicates Lock-Down status, and is set by the Lock-Down command. It cannot be cleared by software—only by device reset or power-down. See
Table 6, “Device Identification Codes” on page 20 for block-status information.
28 Datasheet
Intel£Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory (C3)

5.3 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 issue the Erase Suspend command (0xB0), then check the status register until it indicates that the Erase operation has been suspended. Next, write the preferred Lock command sequence to a block and the Lock status will be changed. After completing any preferred Lock, Read, or Program operations, resume the Erase operation with the Erase Resume command (0xD0).
If a block is Locked or Locked Down during a Suspended Erase of the same block, the locking status bits will be changed immediately. But when the Erase is resumed, the Erase operation will complete.
Locking operations cannot be performed during a Program Suspend. Refer to Appendix A, “Write
State Machine States” on page 50 for detailed information on which commands are valid during
Erase Suspend.

5.4 Status Register Error Checking

Using nested-locking or program-command sequences during Erase Suspend can introduce ambiguity into status register results.
Since locking changes are performed using a two-cycle command sequence, e.g., 0x60 followed by 0x01 to lock a block, following the Block Lock, Block Unlock, or Block Lock-Down Setup command (0x60) with an invalid command will produce a Lock-Command error (SR[4] and SR[5] will be set to 1) in the Status Register. If a Lock-Command error occurs during an Erase Suspend, SR[4] and SR[5] will be set to 1 and will remain at 1 after the Erase is resumed. When Erase is complete, any possible error during the Erase cannot be detected via the status register because of the previous Lock-Command error.
A similar situation happens if an error occurs during a Program-Operation error nested within an Erase Suspend.

5.5 128-Bit Protection Register

The C3 device architecture includes a 128-bit protection register than can be used to increase the security of a system design. For example, the number contained in the protection register can be used to “match” the flash component with other system components, such as the CPU or ASIC, preventing device substitution. The Intel application note,
Boot Block Flash Memory Architecture,
The 128 bits of the protection register are divided into two 64-bit segments. One of the segments is programmed at the Intel factory with a unique 64-bit number, which is unchangeable. The other segment is left blank for customer designs to program, as preferred. Once the customer segment is programmed, it can be locked to prevent further programming.
contains additional application information.
AP-657 Designing with the Advanced+
Datasheet 29
Intel£Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory (C3)

5.5.1 Reading the Protection Register

The protection register is read in the read-identifier mode. The device is switched to this mode by issuing the Read Identifier command (0x90). Once in this mode, read cycles from addresses shown in Figure 6, “Protection Register Mapping” retrieve the specified information. To return to read­array mode, issue the Read Array command (0xFF).

5.5.2 Programming the Protection Register

The protection register bits are programmed using the two-cycle Protection Program command. The 64-bit number is programmed 16 bits at a time. First, issue the Protection Program Setup command, 0xC0. The next write to the device will latch in address and data, and program the specified location. The allowable addresses are shown in Table 6, “Device Identification Codes” on
page 20.SeeFigure 18, “Protection Register Programming Flowchart” on page 57. Attempts to
address Protection Program commands outside the defined protection register address space should not be attempted. Attempting to program to a previously locked protection register segment will result in a Status Register error (Program Error bit SR[4] and Lock Error bit SR[1] will be set to 1).

5.5.3 Locking the Protection Register

The user-programmable segment of the protection register is lockable by programming bit 1 of the PR-LOCK location to 0. See Figure 6, “Protection Register Mapping” on page 30.Bit0ofthis location is programmed to 0 at the Intel factory to protect the unique device number. This bit is set using the Protection Program command to program 0xFFFD to the PR-LOCK location. After these bits have been programmed, no further changes can be made to the values stored in the protection register. Protection Program commands to a locked section will result in a Status Register error (Program Error bit SR[4] and Lock Error bit SR[1] will be set to 1). Protection register lockout state is not reversible.

6.0 Power Consumption

Intel Flash devices have a tiered approach to power savings that can significantly reduce overall system power consumption. The Automatic Power Savings (APS) feature reduces power consumption when the device is selected but idle. If CE# is deasserted, the flash enters its standby mode, where current consumption is even lower. If RP# is deasserted, the flash enter deep power­down mode for ultra-low current consumption. The combination of these features can minimize memory power consumption, and therefore, overall system power consumption.

6.1 Active Power (Program/Erase/Read)

With CE# at a logic-low level and RP# at a logic-high level, the device is in the active mode. Refer to the DC Characteristic tables for I overall system power consumption. Minimizing the active current could have a profound effect on system power consumption, especially for battery

6.2 Automatic Power Savings (APS)

-operated devices.
Automatic Power Savings provides low-power operation during read mode. After data is read from the memory array and the address lines are idle, APS circuitry places the device in a mode where typical current is comparable to I new location is read.
. The flash stays in this static state with outputs valid until a
CCS

6.3 Standby Power

When CE# is at a logic-high level (VIH), the flash memory is in standby mode, which disables much of the device’s circuitry and substantially reduces power consumption. Outputs are placed in
-impedance state independent of the status of the OE# signal. If CE# transitions to a logic-
ahigh high level during Erase or Program operations, the device will continue to perform the operation and consume corresponding active power until the operation is completed.
System engineers should analyze the breakdown of standby time versus active time, and quantify the respective power consumption in each mode for their specific application. This approach will provide a more accurate measure of application

6.4 Deep Power-Down Mode

The deep power-down mode is activated when RP# = VIL. During read modes, RP# going low de­selects the memory and places the outputs in a high-impedance state. Recovery from deep power­down requires a minimum time of t operations.

Intel£Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory (C3)
During program or erase modes, RP# transitioning low will abort the in-progress operation. The memory contents of the address being programmed or the block being erased are no longer valid as the data integrity has been compromised by the abort. During deep power-down, all internal circuits are switched to a low-power savings mode (RP# transitioning to V to the device clears the status register).

6.5 Power and Reset Considerations

6.5.1 Power-Up/Down Characteristics

In order to prevent any condition that may result in a spurious write or erase operation, it is recommended to power-up VCC and VCCQ together. Conversely, VCC and VCCQ must power­down together.
or turning off power
IL
It is also recommended to power-up VPP with or after VCC has reached VCC must powerdown with or slightly before VCC.
If VCCQ and/or VPP are not connected to the VCC supply, then VCC should attain VCC applying VCCQ and VPP. Device inputs should not be driven before supply voltage reaches
min
.
VCC
Power supply transitions should only occur when RP# is low.

6.5.2 RP# Connected to System Reset

The use of RP# during system reset is important with automated program/erase devices since the system expects to read from the flash memory when it comes out of reset. If a CPU reset occurs without a flash memory reset, proper CPU initialization will not occur because the flash memory may be providing status information instead of array data. Intel recommends connecting RP# to the system CPU RESET# signal to allow proper CPU/flash initialization following system reset.
System designers must guard against spurious writes when V both WE# and CE# must be low for a command write, driving either signal to V writes to the device. The CUI architecture provides additional protection since alteration of memory contents can only occur after successful completion of the two-step command sequences. The device is also disabled until RP# is brought to V By holding the device in reset during power-up/down, invalid bus conditions during power-up can be masked, providing yet another level of memory protection.

6.6 Power Supply Decoupling

Flash memory power-switching characteristics require careful device decoupling. System designers should consider the following three supply current issues:
Standby current levels (I
Read current levels (I
CCR
CCS
)
)
Transient peaks produced by falling and rising edges of CE#.
Transient current magnitudes depend on the device outputs’ capacitive and inductive loading. Two­line control and proper decoupling capacitor selection will suppress these transient voltage peaks. Each flash device should have a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor connected between each V and between its V
and VSS. These high- frequency, inherently low-inductance capacitors should

Appendix C Common Flash Interface

This appendix defines the data structure or “database” returned by the Common Flash Interface (CFI) Query command. System software should parse this structure to gain critical information such as block size, density, x8/x16, and electrical specifications. Once this information has been obtained, the software will know which command sets to use to enable flash writes, block erases, and otherwise control the flash component. The Query is part of an overall specification for multiple command set and control interface descriptions called Common Flash Interface, or CFI.
C.1 Query Structure Output
The Query database allows system software to obtain information for controlling the flash device. This section describes the device’s CFI-compliant interface that allows access to Query data.
Query data are presented on the lowest-order data outputs (DQ0-DQ7) only. The numerical offset value is the address relative to the maximum bus width supported by the device. On this family of devices, the Query table device starting address is a 0x10, which is a word address for x16 devices.
For a word-wide (x16) device, the first two Query-structure bytes, ASCII “Q” and “R,” appear on the low byte at word addresses 0x10 and 0x11. This CFI-compliant device outputs 0x00 data on upper bytes. The device outputs ASCII “Q” in the low byte (DQ0-DQ7) and 0x00 in the high byte (DQ8-DQ15).
At Query addresses containing two or more bytes of information, the least significant data byte is presented at the lower address, and the most significant data byte is presented at the higher address.
In all of the following tables, addresses and data are represented in hexadecimal notation, so the “h” suffix has been dropped. In addition, since the upper byte of word-wide devices is always “0x00,” the leading “00” has been dropped from the table notation and only the lower byte value is shown. Any x16 device outputs can be assumed to have 0x00 on the upper byte in this mode.

C.2 Query Structure Overview
The Query command causes the flash component to display the Common Flash Interface (CFI) Query structure or “database.” The structure sub-sections and address locations are summarized below.

C.3 Block Status Register
The Block Status Register indicates whether an erase operation completed successfully or whether a given block is locked or can be accessed for flash program/erase operations.
Block Erase Status (BSR[1]) allows system software to determine the success of the last block erase operation. BSR[1] can be used just after power-up to verify that the VCC supply was not accidentally removed during an erase operation.
