The standard MX26L1620 offers access time as fast as
90ns, allowing operation of high-speed microprocessors
without wait states. To eliminate bus contention, the
MX26L1620 has separate chip enable (CE) and output
enable OE controls. MXIC's MTP EPROMTM augment
EPROM functionality with in-circuit electrical erasure and
programming. The MX26L1620 uses a command register
to manage this functionality.

The MX26L1620 uses a 2.7V to 3.6V VCC supply to
perform the High Reliability Erase and auto Program/
Erase algorithms.
The highest degree of latch-up protection is achieved with
MXIC's proprietary non-epiprocess. Latch-up protection
is proved for stresses up to 100 milliamps on address and

MX26L1620
AUTOMATIC PROGRAMMING
The MX26L1620 is word programmable using the Automatic Programming algorithm. The Automatic Progr amming algorithm makes the external system do not need
to have time out sequence nor to verify the data programmed. The typical chip programming time at room
temperature of the MX26L1620 is less than 20 seconds.
AUTOMATIC PROGRAMMING ALGORITHM
MXIC's Automatic Programming algorithm require the user
to only write program set-up commands (including 2 unlock write cycle and A0H) and a program command (program data and address). The de vice automatically times
the programming pulse width, provides the program verification, and counts the number of sequences. A status
bit similar to DATA polling and a status bit toggling between consecutive read cycles, provide feedback to the
user as to the status of the programming operation.
AUTOMATIC CHIP ERASE
All data are latched on the rising edge of WE or CE,
whichever happens later .
MXIC's Flash technology combines years of EPROM
experience to produce the highest levels of quality, reliability, and cost effectiveness. The MX26L1620 electrically erases all bits simultaneously using Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The bytes are programmed b y using the
EPROM programming mechanism of hot electron injection.
During a program cycle, the state-machine will control
the program sequences and command register will not
respond to any command set. After the state machine
has completed its task, it will allow the command register to respond to its full command set.
The entire chip is bulk erased using 50 ms erase pulses
according to MXIC's Automatic Chip Erase algorithm.
T ypical erasure at room temper ature is accomplished in
less than 45 seconds. The Automatic Erase algorithm
automatically programs the entire array prior to electrical
erase. The timing and verification of electrical erase are
controlled internally within the device.
AUTOMATIC ERASE ALGORITHM
MXIC's Automatic Erase algorithm requires the user to
write commands to the command register using standard microprocessor write timings. The device will automatically pre-program and verify the entire arra y. Then
the device automatically times the erase pulse width,
provides the erase verification, and counts the number
of sequences. A status bit toggling between consecutive read cycles provides feedback to the user as to the
status of the programming operation.
Register contents serve as inputs to an internal statemachine which controls the erase and programming circuitry . During write cycles, the command register internally latches address and data needed for the programming and erase operations. All address are latched on
the falling edge of WE or CE, whiche ver happens later.
To read array data from the outputs, the system must
drive the CE and OE pins to VIL. CE is the po wer control
and selects the device. OE is the output control and gates
array data to the output pins. WE should remain at VIH.
The internal state machine is set for reading array data
upon device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This
ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory contect
occurs during the power transition. No command is
necessary in this mode to obtain array data. Standard
microprocessor read cycles that assert valid address on
the device address inputs produce valid data on the device
data outputs. The de vice remains enabled for read access
until the command register contents are altered.
WRITE COMMANDS/COMMAND
SEQUENCES
To program data to the device, the system must drive
WE and CE to VIL, and OE to VIH.
An erase operation can erase the entire device. The
"Writing specific address and data commands or
sequences into the command register initiates device
operations. Table 1 defines the valid register command
sequences. Writing incorrect address and data values or
writing them in the improper sequence resets the device
to reading array data."section has details on erasing the
entire chip.
After the system writes the autoselect command
sequence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The
system can then read autoselect codes from the internal
reqister (which is separate from the memory array) on
Q15-Q0. Standard read cycle timings apply in this mode.
Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autoselect Command
Sequence section for more information.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active
current specification for the write mode. The "AC
Characteristics" section contains timing specification
table and timing diagrams for write operations.
STANDBY MODE
MX26L1620 can be set into Standby mode with two different approaches. One is using both CE and RESET
pins and the other one is using RESET pin only .
When using both pins of CE and RESET, a CMOS
Standby mode is achieved with both pins held at Vcc ±
0.3V . Under this condition, the current consumed is less
than 50uA (typ.). If both of the CE and RESET are held
at VIH, b ut not within the range of VCC ± 0.3V , the de vice
will still be in the standby mode, but the standby currect
will be larger. During Auto Algorithm operation, Vcc active current (Icc2) is required even CE = "H" until the
operation is complated. The de vice can be read with standard access time (tCE) from either of these standby
modes.
When using only RESET, a CMOS standby mode is
achieved with RESET input held at Vss ± 0.3V, Under
this condition the current is consumed less than 50uA
(typ.). Once the RESET pin is taken high,the device is
back to active without recovery delay.
In the standby mode the outputs are in the high impedance state, independent of the OE input.
MX26L1620 is capable to provide the Automatic Standby
Mode to restrain power consumption during read-out of
data. This mode can be used eff ectively with an application requested low power consumption such as handy
terminals.
To active this mode, MX26L1620 automatically switch
themselves to low power mode when MX26L1620 addresses remain stable during access time of tACC+30ns.
It is not necessary to control CE, WE, and OE on the
mode. Under the mode, the current consumed is typically 50uA (CMOS level).
OUTPUT DISABLE
With the OE input at a logic high level (VIH), output from
the devices are disabled. This will cause the output pins
to be in a high impedance state.
RESET OPERATION
The RESET pin provides a hardware method of resetting
the device to reading arra y data. When the RESET pin is
driven low for at least a period of tRP, the device
immediately terminates any operation in progress,
tristates all output pins, and ignores all read/write
commands for the duration of the RESET pluse. The

device also resets the internal state machine to reading
array data. The operation that was interrupted should be
reinitated once the device is ready to accept another
command sequence, to ensure data integrity
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET pulse.
When RESET is held at VSS±0.3V, the device draws
CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET is held at VIL
but not within VSS±0.3V, the standby current will be
greater.
The RESET pin may be tied to system reset circuitry . A
system reset would that also reset the MTP EPROM.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET
parameters and to Figure 14 for the timing diagram.
SILICON ID READ OPERATION
MTP EPROM are intended for use in applications where
the local CPU alters memory contents. As such, manufacturer and device codes must be accessible while the
device resides in the target system. EPROM programmers typically access signature codes by raising A9 to
a high voltage. How ever , multiple xing high voltage onto
address lines is not generally desired system design practice.

DATA PROTECTION
The MX26L1620 is designed to offer protection against
accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious
system level signals that may exist during power transition. During power up the device automatically resets
the state machine in the Read mode. In addition, with
its control register architecture, alteration of the memory
contents only occurs after successful completion of specific command sequences. The device also incorporates
several features to prevent inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC pow er-up and power-down transition or
system noise.
MX26L1620 provides hardware method to access the
silicon ID read operation. Which method requires VID on
A9 pin, VIL on CE, OE, A6, and A1 pins. Which apply
VIL on A0 pin, the device will output MXIC's manufacture code of C2H. Which apply VIH on A0 pin, the device
will output MX26L1620 device code of 22FEH.
VI/O PIN OPERATION
MX26L1620 is capable to provide the I/O prower supply
(VI/O) pin to control Input/Output voltage levels of the
device. The data outputs and voltage tolerated at its data
input is determined by the voltage on the VI/O pin. This
device is allows to operate in 1.8V or 3V system as required.
SECURED SILICON SECTOR
The MX26L1620 features a Flash memory region where
the system may access through a command sequence
to create a permant part identification as so called Electronic Serial Number (ESN) in the device. Once this region is programmed, any further modification on the region is impossible. The secured silicon sector is a 512
words in length, and uses a Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit (Q7) to indicate whether or not the Secured
Silicon Sector is locked when shipped from the f actory.
This bit is permanently set at the factory and cannot be
changed, which prevent duplication of a factory locked
part. This ensures the security of the ESN once the product is shipped to the field.
The MX26L1620 offers the device with Secured Silicon
Sector either factory locked or custor lockab le. The factory-locked version is always protected when shipped
from the factory , and has the Secured Silicon Sector
Indicator Bit permanently set to a "1". The customerlockable version is shipped with the Secured Silicon
Sector unprotected, allowing customer to utilize that sector in any form they pref er . The customer-loc kable v er-

MX26L1620
sion has the secured sector Indicator Bit permanently
set to a "0". Therefore, the Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a "0". Therefore, the Second
Silicon Sector Indicator Bit prevents customer, lockable
device from being used to replace devices that are factory locked.
The system access the Secured Silicon Sector through
a command sequence (refer to "Enter Secured Silicon/
Exit Secured Silicon Sector command Sequence). After
the system has written the Enter Secured Silicon Sector
command sequence, it may read the Secured Silicon
Sector by using the address normally occupied by the
address 000000h-0001FFh. This mode of operation continues until the system issues the Exit Secured Silicon
Sector command sequence, or until power is removed
from the device. On power-up, or following a hardware
reset, the device rever ts to sending command to address 000000h-0001FFFh.
LOW VCC WRITE INHIBIT
When VCC is less than VLKO the device does not accept any write cycles. This protects dataduring VCC
power-up and power-do wn. The command register and
all internal program/erase circuits are disabled, and the
device resets. Subsequent writes are ignored until VCC
is greater thanVLK O. The system must provide the proper
signals to the control pins to prevent unintentional write
when VCC is greater than VLK O.
FACTORY LOCKED:Secured Silicon Sector
Programmed and Protected At the Factory
In device with an ESN, the Secured Silicon Sector is
protected when the device is shipped from the factory.
The Secured Silicon Sector cannot be modified in any
way . A f actory locked device has an 8-word random ESN
at address 000000h-000007h.
CUSTOMER LOCKABLE:Secured Silicon
Sector NOT Programmed or Protected At the
Factory
As an alternative to the factory-locked version, the device
may be ordered such that the customer may program
and protect the 512-word Secured Silicon Sector.
Programming and protecting the Secured Silicon Sector
must be used with caution since, once protected, there
is no procedure available for unprotecting the Secured
Silicon Sector area and none of the bits in the Secured
Silicon Sector memory space can be modified in any
way.
The Secured Silicon Sector area can be protected using
the following procedures:
Write the three-cycle Enter Secured Silicon Sector Region
command sequence. This allows in-system protection
of the Secured Silicon Sector without raising any device
pin to a high voltage. Note that method is only applicable
to the Secured Silicon Sector.
WRITE PULSE "GLITCH" PROTECTION
Noise pulses of less than 5ns(typical) on CE or WE will
not initiate a write cycle.
LOGICAL INHIBIT
Writing is inhibited by holding any one of OE = VIL, CE =
VIH or WE = VIH. To initiate a write cycle CE and WE
must be a logical zero while OE is a logical one.
POWER-UP SEQUENCE
The MX26L1620 powers up in the Read only mode. In
addition, the memory contents may only be altered after
successful completion of the predefined command sequences.
P/N:PM0827
Once the Secured Silicon Sector is programmed, locked
and verified, the system must write the Exit Secured
Silicon Sector Region command sequence to return to
reading and writing the remainder of the array .

READING ARRAY DATA
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to
retrieve data. The device is also ready to read arra y data
after completing an Automatic Program or Automatic
Erase algorithm.
The system must issue the reset command to re-enable the device for reading array data if Q5 goes high, or
while in the autoselect mode. See the "Reset Command"
section, next.
RESET COMMAND
Writing the reset command to the device resets the
device to reading array data. Address bits are don't care
for this command.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the device to reading array
data. Once erasure begins, however, the device ignores
reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in a program command sequence before
programming begins. This resets the device to reading
array data. Once programming begins ,howe ver , the device
ignores reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an SILICON ID READ command
sequence. Once in the SILICON ID READ mode, the

must be written to return to reading array
ID READ command. The device then enters the SILICON
ID READ mode, and the system may read at any address
any number of times, without init iating another command
sequence. A read cycle at address XX00h retrieves the
manufacturer code. A read cycle at address XX01h returns the device code.
The system must write the reset command to exit the
autoselect mode and return to reading array data.
WORD PROGRAM COMMAND SEQUENCE
The command sequence requires four bus cycles, and
is initiated by writing two unlock write cycles, followed
by the program set-up command. The program address
and data are written next, which in turn initiate the
Embedded Program algorithm. The system is
to provide further controls or timings. The device
automatically generates the program pulses and verifies
the programmed cell margin. Table 4 shows the address
and data requirements for the byte program command
sequence.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the
device then returns to reading array data and addresses
are no longer latched. The system can determine the
status of the program operation by using Q7, Q6. See
"Write Operation Status" for information on these status
bits.
Any commands written to the device during the Embedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a
hardware reset immediately terminates the programming
operation. The Word Program command sequence should
be reinitiated once the device has reset to reading array
data, to ensure data integrity.
not required
If Q5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command returns the device to reading
array data.
SILICON ID READ COMMAND SEQUENCE
The SILICON ID READ command sequence allows the
host system to access the manufacturer and devices
codes, and determine whether or not. Table 4 shows the
address and data requirements. This method is an
alternative to that shown in Table 1, which is intended for
EPROM programmers and requires VID on address bit
A9.
The SILICON ID READ command sequence is initiated
by writing two unlock cycles, followed by the SILICON
P/N:PM0827
Programming is allowed in any sequence. A bit cannot
be programmed from a "0" back to a "1". Cause the Data
Polling algorithm to indicate the operation was successful.
However, a succeeding read will show that the data is
still "0". Only erase operations can conver t a "0" to a
"1".
ACCELERATED PROGRAM OPERATIONS
The device offers accelerated program operations through
the ACC pin. When the system asserts VHH on the ACC
pin, the device automatically bypass the two "Unlock"
write cycle. The device uses the higher voltage on the
ACC pin to accelerate the operation. Note that the ACC
pin must not be at VHH any oper ation other than accelerated
programming, or device damage may result.
