1.1New Features
The Word-Wide FlashFile memory family maintains
basic compatibility with Intel’s 28F016SA and
28F016SV. Key enhancements include:
•Common Flash Interface (CFI) Support
• Scaleable Command Set (SCS) Support
• Low Voltage Technology
•Enhanced Suspend Capabilities
They share a compatible Status Register, basic
software commands, and pinout . These similarities
enable a clean migration from the 28F016SA or
28F016SV. When upgrading, it is important to note
the following differences:
•Because of new feature and density options,
the devices have different manufacturer and
device identifier codes. This allows for soft ware
optimization.
•New software commands.
•To take advantage of low voltage on the
28F160S3 and 28F320S3, allow V
connection to VCC. The 28F160S3 and
28F320S3 do not support a 12V V
option.

1.2Product Overview
The Word-Wide FlashFile memory family provides
density upgrades with pinout compatibility for the
16- and 32-Mbit densities. They are highperformance memories arranged as 1 Mword and
2 Mwords of 16 bits or 2 Mbyte and 4 Mbyte of
8 bits. This data is grouped in thirty-two and s ixtyfour 64-Kbyte blocks that can be erased, locked
and unlocked in-system. Figure 1 shows the block
diagram, and Figure 5 illustrates the memory
organization.
This family of product s are optimized for fast factory
programming and low power designs. Specifically
designed for 3V systems, the 28F160S3 and
28F320S3 support read operations at 2.7V–3.6V

configures the device for optimized write
operations.
A Common Flash Interface (CFI) permits OEMspecified software algori thms to be used for entire
families of devices. This allows device-independent,
JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and
backward-compatible software support for the
specified flash device families. Flash vendors can
standardize their existing interfaces for long-term
compatibility.
Scaleable Command Set (SCS) allows a single,
simple software driver in all host systems to work
with all SCS-compliant flash memory devices,
independent of system-level packaging (e.g.,
memory card, SIMM, or direc t-to-board placement).
Additionally, SCS provides the highest
system/device data transfer rates and minimizes
device and system-level implementation costs.
A Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the
interface between the system processor and
internal device operation. A valid command
sequence written to the CUI initiates device
automation. An internal Write State M ac hi ne (WSM)
automatically executes the algorithms and timings
necessary for block erase, program, and lock-bit
configuration operations.
A block erase operation erases one of the device’s
64-Kbyte blocks typically within t
independent of other blocks. Each block can be
independently erased 100,000 times. Block erase
suspend mode allows system software to suspend
block erase to read or write data from any other
block.
Data is programmed in byte, word or page
increments. Program suspend mode enables the
system to read data or execute code from any other
flash memory array location.

The device incorporates two Write Buffers of 32
bytes (16 words) to allow optimum-performance
data programming. This feature can improve
system program performance by up to four times
over non-buffer programming.

The Status Register and the STS pin in RY/BY#
mode indicate whether or not the device is busy
executing an operation or ready for a new
command. Polling the Status Register, system
software retrieves WSM f eedback. STS in RY/BY#
mode gives an additional indicator of WSM ac tivity
by providing a hardware status signal. Like the
Status Register, RY/BY#-low indicates that the
WSM is performing a block erase, program , or l ock bit operation. RY/BY#-high indicat es that the WSM
is ready for a new command, block erase is
suspended (and program is inactive), program is
suspended, or the device is in deep power-down
mode.
The Automatic Power Savings (APS) feature
substantially reduces active current when the
device is in static mode (addresses not switching).
The BYTE# pin allows either x 8 or x16 read/writes
to the device. BYTE# at logic low selects 8-bit

2.0PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The word-wide memories include an on-chip
Write State Machine (WSM) to manage block
erase, program, and lock-bit configuration
functions. It allows for: 100% TTL-level control
inputs, fixed power suppli es duri ng block erasure,
programming, lock-bit c onfiguration, and minimal
processor overhead with RAM-like interface
timings.

ADVANCE INFORMATION
E28F160S3, 28F320S3
Commands are written using standard microprocessor write timings. The CUI c ontents serve
as input to the WSM that controls the block
erase, programming, and lock-bit configuration.
The internal algorithms are regulated by the
WSM, including pulse repetition, internal
verification, and margining of data. Addresses
and data are internally latched during write
cycles. Writing the appropriate command outputs
array data, identifier codes, or Status Register
data.
Interface software that initiates and polls
progress of block erase, program ming, and lockbit configuration can be stored in any bl ock. This
code is copied to and executed from system
RAM during flash memory updates. After
successful com pletion, reads are again possible
via the Read Array command. Block erase

manufacturer code, devic e code, and block lock
configuration codes for each block configuration
(see Figure 6). Using the manufacturer and
device codes, the system software can
automatically match the device with its proper
algorithms. The block-lock configuration codes
identify each block’s lock-bit setting.

will not recognize the Read Array command until

4.2Read Query Mode Command
This section defines the data structure or
“database” returned by the Common Fl ash Interface
(CFI) Query command. System software should
parse this structure t o gain critic al informati on 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 fl ash writes, bloc k erases, and
otherwise control the flas h component. The Query
is part of an overall specification for multiple
command set and control interface descriptions
called Common Flash Interface, or CFI.
4.2.1QUERY STRUCTURE OUTPUT
The Query “database” allows system software to
gain critical information for controlling the flash
component. This section describes the device’s
CFI-compliant interface that allows the host system
to access Query data.
Query data are always presented on the lowestorder data outputs (DQ
offset value is the address rel ative to the max imum
bus width supported by the device. On t his device,
the Query table device starting address is a 10h
word address, since the maximum bus width is x16.
For this word-wide (x16) device, t he first two bytes
of the Query structure, “Q” and ”R” in ASCII, appear
on the low byte at word addresses 10h and 11h.
This CFI-compliant device outputs 00H data on
upper bytes. Thus, the dev ice outputs ASCII “Q” in
the low byte (DQ

Since the device is x 8/x16 capable, the x8 data is
still presented in word-relative (16-bit) addresses.
However, the “fill data” (00h) is not the same as

Therefore, in x8 mode using byte addressing, the
device will output the sequence “Q”, “Q”, “R”, “R”,
“Y”, “Y”, and so on, beginning at byte-relative
address 20h (which is equivalent to word offs et 10h

The XSR may be read at any time by writing the

4.5Clear Status Register
Command
Status Register bits SR.5, SR.4, SR.3, and SR.1
are set to “1”s by the WSM and can only be reset
by the Clear Status Regis ter command. These bits
indicate various failure conditions (see Table 15).
By allowing system software to reset these bits,
several operations (such as cumulativ ely erasing or
locking multiple blocks or programming several
bytes/words in sequence) m ay be performed. The
Status Register may be polled to determine if an
error occurred during the sequence.
To clear the Status Register, the Clear Status
Register command is written. It functions

4.6Block Erase Command
Block Erase is executed one block at a time and
initiated by a two-cycle command. A Block Erase
Setup command is written first, followed by a
Confirm command. 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 devi ce automatically
outputs Status Regis ter dat a when read (s ee Figure
10). The CPU can detect block erase c omplet ion by
analyzing STS in level RY/BY# mode or Status
Register bit SR.7. Toggle OE#, CE
#, or CE1# to
0
update the Status Register.
When the block erase is complete, St atus Register
bit SR.5 should be check ed. 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 Regi st er mode unti l
a new command is issued.
This two-step command sequence of set-up
followed by execution ensures t hat 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.” A lso,

4.7Full Chip Erase Command
The Full Chip Erase command followed by a
Confirm command erases all unl ocked blo cks. After
the Confirm command is writ ten, the device erases
all unlocked blocks from block 0 to block 31 (or 63)
sequentially. Block preconditioning, erase, and
verify are handled internally by t he WSM. After the
Full Chip Erase command sequence is written to
the CUI, the device autom atically outputs the Status
Register data when read. The CPU can detect full
chip erase completion by polling the STS pin in
level RY/BY# mode or Status Register bit SR.7.
When the full chip erase is complete, Status
Register bit SR.5 should be c hecked to see if the
operation completed successf ully. If an erase error
occurred, the Status Register should be cleared
before issuing the next command. The CUI rem ains
in read Status Register mode until a new command
is issued. If an error is detected while erasing a
block during a full chip eras e operation, the WSM
skips the remaining cel ls i n that block and proceeds
to erase the next block. Reading the block valid

4.8Write to Buffer Command
To program the flash device v ia the write buffers, a
Write to Buffer command sequence is initiated. A
variable number of bytes or words , up to the buffer
size, can be written int o the buff er and programm ed
to the flash device. First, the Write to Buffer setup
command is issued along with the Bl ock Address.
At this point, the eXtended Status Register
information is loaded and XSR.7 reverts to the
“buffer available” status. If XSR.7 = 0, no write
buffer is available. To retry, continue monitoring
XSR.7 by issuing the Write to Buffer setup
command with the Block Address until XSR.7 = 1.
When XSR.7 transitions to a “1,” the buf fer is ready
for loading.
Now a Word/Byte count is issued at an address
within the block. On the nex t write, a device start
address is given along with the write buffer data.
For maximum programming performance and lower
power, align the start address at the beginning of a
Write Buffer boundary. Subsequent writes must
supply additional device addresses and data,
depending on the count. All subsequent addresses
must lie within the start address plus the count.
After the final buffer dat a is given, a Write Confirm
command is issued. Thi s initiates the WSM to begin
copying the buffer data to the flash memory. If a
command other than Write Confirm is writ ten to the
device, an “Invalid Command/Sequence” error will
be generated and Status Register bits SR.5 and
SR.4 will be set to “1.” For additional buffer writes,
issue another Write to Buffer setup com mand and
check XSR.7. The write buff ers c an be loaded whil e
the WSM is busy as long as X SR.7 indicat es that a
buffer is available. Ref er to Figure 7 for t he Writ e to
Buffer flowchart.
If an error occurs while writing, the device will stop
programming, and Status Register bit SR.4 will be
set to a “1” to indicate a program failure. Any tim e a
media failure occurs during a program or an erase
(SR.4 or SR.5 is set), the device will not accept any
more Write to Buffer comm ands. Addit ionally, if the
user attempts to writ e past an erase block boundary
with a Write to Buffer command, the device will
abort programming. This will generate an “Invalid
Command/Sequence” error and Status Register bits
SR.5 and SR.4 will be set to “1.” To clear SR.4
and/or SR.5, issue a Clear Status Register
command.
Reliable buffered programming can only occur
when V
programming is attempted while V
Status Register bits SR.4 and SR.5 will be set to
“1.” Programming attempts with invalid V
voltages produce spurious results and should not
be attempted. Finally, successful programming
requires that the corresponding Block Lock-Bit be

4.9Byte/Word Program Commands
Byte/Word programming is executed by a two-cycle
command sequence. Byte/Word Program setup
(standard 40H or alternate 10H) is written, fol lowed
by a second write that specifies the address and
data (latched on the rising edge of WE#). The WSM
then takes over, controlling t he program and verify
algorithms internally. After the write sequence is
written, the device automatically outputs Status
Register data when read. The CPU can detect the
completion of the program event by analy zing STS
in level RY/BY# mode or Status Register bit SR.7.
When programming is complete, St atus Regis ter bit
SR.4 should be checked. If a programming error is
detected, the Status Register should be cleared.
The internal WSM verify only detects errors for “1”s
that do not success fully program to “0”s. The CUI
remains in read Status Register mode until it
receives another command. Refer to Figure 8 for
the Word/Byte Program flowchart.

4.10STS Configuration Command
The Status (STS) pin can be configured to dif ferent
states using the STS pin Configuration command.
Once the STS pin has been c onfigured, it remains
in that configuration until another configuration
command is issued or RP# i s low. Init ially, the STS
pin defaults to level RY /BY# operation where STS
low indicates that the s tate machine is busy. STS
high indicates that the s tate machine is ready for a
new operation or suspended.
To reconfigure the Status (S TS) pin to other modes,
the STS pin Configuration command is issued
followed by the desired configuration code. The
three alternate configurations are all pulse mode f or
use as a system interrupt as described in Table 14.
For these configurations, bit 0 controls Erase
Complete interrupt pulse, and bit 1 controls Write
Complete interrupt pulse. When the device is
configured in one of the pulse modes , the STS pin
pulses low with a typical pulse width of 250 ns.
Supplying the 00h configuration code with the
Configuration command resets the STS pin to the
default RY/BY# level mode. Refer to Table 14 for
configuration coding definitions. The Configuration
command may only be given when the device is not
busy or suspended. Check SR.7 for devic e status.
An invalid configuration code will result in both
Status Register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.”
4.11Block Erase Suspend
Command
The Block Erase Suspend command allows
block-erase interruption to read or program data in
another block of memory. Once the block erase
process starts, writing the Block Erase Suspend
command requests that the WSM suspend the
block erase sequence at a predetermined point in
the algorithm. The device outputs Status Register
data when read after the Block Erase Suspend
command is written. Polling Status Register bit
SR.7 can determine when the block erase operation
has been suspended. When SR.7 = 1, SR. 6 should
also be set to “1,” indicat ing t hat t he dev ic e i s in the
erase suspend mode. STS in level RY/BY# mode
will also transition to V

The Program Suspend command allows program
interruption to read data in other flash memory
locations. Once the programming process starts,
writing the Program Suspend command requests
that the WSM suspend the program sequence at a
predetermined point in the algorithm. The device
continues to output Status Regi ster data when read
after the Program Suspend command is written.
Polling Status Register bits SR.7 can determine
when the programming operation has been
suspended. When SR.7 = 1, S R.2 should also be
set to “1”, indicating that the device is in the
program suspend mode. STS in level RY/BY#

5.0DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
5.1Three-Line Output Control
Intel provides three control inputs to accommodate
multiple memory c onnections: CE
OE#, and RP#. Three-line control provides for:
a. Lowest possible memory power dissipation;
b. Data bus contention avoidance.
To use these control inputs effic iently, an address
decoder should enable CEx# while OE# should be
connected to all memory devic es and the system’s
READ# control line. This as sures t hat onl y s elected
memory devices have active outputs, while deselected memory devices are in standby mode.
RP# should be connected to the system

during system power transitions. POWERGOOD

5.2STS and WSM Polling
STS is an open drain output that should be
connected to V
hardware form of detecting block erase, program,
and lock-bit configuration completion. In default
mode, it transitions low during execution of these
commands and returns to V
finished executing the internal algorithm. For
alternate STS pin configurat ions, see Sec tion 4.10.
STS can be connected to an int errupt input of the
system CPU or controller. It is active at all times.
