GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The MT28F008B3 (x8) and MT28F800B3 (x16/x8) are low-voltage, nonvolatile, electrically block-erasable (flash), programmable memory devices containing 8,388,608 bits organized as 524,288 words (16 bits) or 1,048,576 bytes (8 bits). Writing and erasing the device is done with a VPP voltage of either 3.3V or 5V, while all operations are performed with a 3.3V VCC. Due to process technology advances, 5V VPP is optimal for application and production programming. These devices are fabricated with Micron’s advanced 0.18µm CMOS floating-gate process.
The MT28F008B3 and MT28F800B3 are organized into eleven separately erasable blocks. To ensure that critical firmware is protected from accidental erasure or overwrite, the devices feature a hardware-protected boot block. This block may be used to store code imple­mented in low-level system recovery. The remaining blocks vary in density and are written and erased with no additional security measures.

SMART 3 BOOT BLOCK FLASH MEMORY

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 Flash devices in­corporate a number of features ideally suited for system firmware. The memory array is segmented into indi­vidual erase blocks. Each block may be erased without affecting data stored in other blocks. These memory blocks are read, written and erased with commands to the command execution logic (CEL). The CEL controls the operation of the internal state machine (ISM), which completely controls all WRITE, BLOCK ERASE and VERIFY operations. The ISM protects each memory location from over-erasure and optimizes each memory location for maximum data retention. In addition, the ISM greatly simplifies the control necessary for writing the device in­system or in an external programmer.
The Functional Description provides detailed infor­mation on the operation of the MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 and is organized into these sections:

OVERVIEW

SMART 3 TECHNOLOGY (B3)

Smart 3 operation allows maximum flexibility for in­system READ, WRITE and ERASE operations. WRITE and ERASE operations may be executed with a VPP voltage of
3.3V or 5V. Due to process technology advances, 5V VPP is optimal for application and production programming.
8Mb

HARDWARE-PROTECTED BOOT BLOCK

This block of the memory array can be erased or written only when the RP# pin is taken to VHH or when the WP# pin is brought HIGH. (The WP# pin does not apply to the SOP package.) This provides additional security for the core firmware during in-system firmware updates should an unintentional power fluctuation or system reset occur. The MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 are avail­able with the boot block starting at the bottom of the address space (“B” suffix) and the top of the address space (“T” suffix).

SELECTABLE BUS SIZE (MT28F800B3)

The MT28F800B3 allows selection of an 8-bit (1 Meg x 8) or 16-bit (512K x 16) data bus for reading and writing the memory. The BYTE# pin is used to select the bus width. In the x16 configuration, control data is read or written only on the lower eight bits (DQ0–DQ7).
Data written to the memory array utilizes all active data pins for the selected configuration. When the x8 configuration is selected, data is written in byte form; when the x16 configuration is selected, data is written in word form.

INTERNAL STATE MACHINE (ISM)

BLOCK ERASE and BYTE/WORD WRITE timing are simplified with an ISM that controls all erase and write algorithms in the memory array. The ISM ensures protec­tion against overerasure and optimizes write margin to each cell.
During WRITE operations, the ISM automatically in­crements and monitors WRITE attempts, verifies write margin on each memory cell and updates the ISM status register. When BLOCK ERASE is performed, the ISM au­tomatically overwrites the entire addressed block (elimi­nates overerasure), increments and monitors ERASE at­tempts, and sets bits in the ISM status register.

ELEVEN INDEPENDENTLY ERASABLE MEMORY BLOCKS

The MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 are organized into eleven independently erasable memory blocks that al­low portions of the memory to be erased without affect­ing the rest of the memory data. A special boot block is hardware-protected against inadvertent erasure or writ­ing by requiring either a super-voltage on the RP# pin or driving the WP# pin HIGH. (The WP# pin does not apply to the SOP package.) One of these two conditions must exist along with the VPP voltage (3.3V or 5V) on the VPP pin before a WRITE or ERASE is performed on the boot block. The remaining blocks require that only the VPP voltage be present on the VPP pin before writing or erasing.

ISM STATUS REGISTER

The ISM status register enables an external processor to monitor the status of the ISM during WRITE and ERASE operations. Two bits of the 8-bit status register are set and cleared entirely by the ISM. These bits indicate whether the ISM is busy with an ERASE or WRITE task and when an ERASE has been suspended. Additional error informa­tion is set in three other bits: VPP status, write status and erase status.

COMMAND EXECUTION LOGIC (CEL)

The CEL receives and interprets commands to the device. These commands control the operation of the ISM and the read path (i.e., memory array, ID register or status register). Commands may be issued to the CEL
7
8Mb
SMART 3 BOOT BLOCK FLASH MEMORY
while the ISM is active. However, there are restrictions on what commands are allowed in this condition. See the Command Execution section for more detail.

DEEP POWER-DOWN MODE

To allow for maximum power conservation, the MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 feature a very low cur­rent, deep power-down mode. To enter this mode, the RP# pin is taken to VSS ±0.2V. In this mode, the current draw is a maximum of 8µA at 3.3V VCC. Entering deep power-down also clears the status register and sets the ISM to the read array mode.

MEMORY ARCHITECTURE

The MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 memory array architecture is designed to allow sections to be erased without disturbing the rest of the array. The array is divided into eleven addressable blocks that vary in size and are independently erasable. When blocks rather than the entire array are erased, total device endurance is enhanced, as is system flexibility. Only the ERASE func-
Figure 1
Memory Address Maps
tion is block-oriented. All READ and WRITE operations are done on a random-access basis.
The boot block is protected from unintentional ERASE or WRITE with a hardware protection circuit which re­quires that a super-voltage be applied to RP# or that the WP# pin be driven HIGH before erasure is commenced. The boot block is intended for the core firmware required for basic system functionality. The remaining ten blocks do not require that either of these two conditions be met before WRITE or ERASE operations.

BOOT BLOCK

The hardware-protected boot block provides extra security for the most sensitive portions of the firmware. This 16KB block may only be erased or written when the RP# pin is at the specified boot block unlock voltage (VHH) of 12V or when the WP# pin is HIGH. During a WRITE or ERASE of the boot block, the RP# pin must be held at VHH or the WP# pin held HIGH until the WRITE or ERASE is completed. (The WP# pin does not apply to the SOP package.) The VPP pin must be at VPPH (3.3V or 5V) when the boot block is written to or erased.

SMART 3 BOOT BLOCK FLASH MEMORY
The MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 are available in two configurations and top or bottom boot block. The top boot block version supports processors of the x86 variety. The bottom boot block version is intended for 680X0 and RISC applications. Figure 1 illustrates the memory ad­dress maps associated with these two versions.

PARAMETER BLOCKS

The two 8KB parameter blocks store less sensitive and more frequently changing system parameters and also may store configuration or diagnostic coding. These blocks are enabled for erasure when the VPP pin is at VPPH. No super-voltage unlock or WP# control is required.

MAIN MEMORY BLOCKS

The eight remaining blocks are general-purpose memory blocks and do not require a super-voltage on RP# or WP# control to be erased or written. These blocks are intended for code storage, ROM-resident applica­tions or operating systems that require in-system update capability.

OUTPUT (READ) OPERATIONS

The MT28F800B3 and MT28F008B3 feature three dif­ferent types of READs. Depending on the current mode of the device, a READ operation produces data from the memory array, status register or device identification register. In each of these three cases, the WE#, CE# and OE# inputs are controlled in a similar manner. Moving between modes to perform a specific READ is described in the Command Execution section.

MEMORY ARRAY

To read the memory array, WE# must be HIGH, and OE# and CE# must be LOW. Valid data is output on the DQ pins when these conditions have been met, and a valid address is given. Valid data remains on the DQ pins until the address changes, or until OE# or CE# goes HIGH, whichever occurs first. The DQ pins continue to output new data after each address transition as long as OE# and CE# remain LOW.
The MT28F800B3 features selectable bus widths. When the memory array is accessed as a 512K x 16, BYTE# is HIGH, and data is output on DQ0–DQ15. To access the memory array as a 1 Meg x 8, BYTE# must be LOW, DQ8– DQ14 must be High-Z, and all data must be output on DQ0–DQ7. The DQ15/(A - 1) pin becomes the lowest order address input so that 1,048,576 locations can be read.
After power-up or RESET, the device is automatically in the array read mode. All commands and their opera­tions are covered in the Command Set and Command Execution sections.

STATUS REGISTER

Performing a READ of the status register requires the same input sequencing as a READ of the array except that the address inputs are “Don’t Care.” The status register contents are always output on DQ0– DQ7, regardless of the condition of BYTE# on the MT28F800B3. DQ8–DQ15 are LOW when BYTE# is HIGH, and DQ8–DQ14 are High-Z when BYTE# is LOW. Data from the status register is latched on the falling edge of OE# or CE#, whichever occurs last. If the con­tents of the status register change during a READ of the status register, either OE# or CE# may be toggled while the other is held LOW to update the output.
Following a WRITE or ERASE, the device automati­cally enters the status register read mode. In addition, a READ during a WRITE or ERASE produces the status register contents on DQ0–DQ7. When the device is in the erase suspend mode, a READ operation produces the status register contents until another command is is­sued. In certain other modes, READ STATUS REGISTER may be given to return to the status register read mode. All commands and their operations are described in the Command Set and Command Execution sections.

IDENTIFICATION REGISTER

A READ of the two 8-bit device identification registers requires the same input sequencing as a READ of the array. WE# must be HIGH, and OE# and CE# must be LOW. However, ID register data is output only on DQ0– DQ7, regardless of the condition of BYTE# on the MT28F800B3. A0 is used to decode between the two bytes of the device ID register; all other address inputs are “Don’t Care.” When A0 is LOW, the manufacturer com­patibility ID is output, and when A0 is HIGH, the device ID is output. DQ8–DQ15 are High-Z when BYTE# is LOW. When BYTE# is HIGH, DQ8–DQ15 are 00h when the manufacturer compatibility ID is read and 88h when the device ID is read.
To get to the identification register read mode, READ IDENTIFICATION may be issued while the device is in certain other modes. In addition, the identification regis­ter read mode can be reached by applying a super-volt­age (VID) to the A9 pin. Using this method, the ID register can be read while the device is in any mode. When A9 is returned to VIL or VIH, the device returns to the previous mode.

INPUT OPERATIONS

The DQ pins are used either to input data to the array or to input a command to the CEL. A command input issues an 8-bit command to the CEL to control the mode of operation of the device. A WRITE is used to input data to the memory array. The following section de-
