Description M45PE40

1 Description

The M45PE40 is a 4-Mbit (512 Kbit x8 bit) serial paged flash memory accessed by a high
speed SPI-compatible bus.
The memory can be written or programmed 1 to 256 bytes at a time , using the pa ge write or
page program instruction. The page write instruction consists of an integrated page erase
cycle followed by a page program cycle.
The memory is organized as 8 sectors, each containing 256 pages. Each page is 256 bytes
wide. Thus, the whole m emory can be viewed as consisting of 2048 pages , or 524288 b ytes .
The memory can be erased a page at a time , using the page erase instruction, or a sector at
a time, using the sector erase instruction.
Important note
This datasheet details the functionality of the M45PE40 de vices, based on the previous T7X
process or based on the current T9HX process (available since August 2007). Delivery of
parts operating with a maximum clock rate of 75 MHz starts from week 8 of 2008.

Signal descriptions M45PE40

2 Signal descriptions

2.1 Serial data output (Q)

This output signal is used to transf er data serially out of the de vice . Data is shifted out on the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).

2.2 Serial data input (D)

This input signal is used to transfer data serially into the device. It receives instructions, addresses, and the data to be programmed. Values are latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C).

2.3 Serial Clock (C)

This input signal provides the timing of the serial interface. Instructions, addresses, or data present at serial data input (D) are latched on the rising edge of Serial Cloc k (C). Data on serial data output (Q) changes after the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).

2.4 Chip Select (S)

When this input signal is High, the device is deselect ed and se rial data output (Q) is at high impedance. Unless an internal read, program, er ase or write cycle is in prog ress , the device will be in the standby power mode (this is not the deep power-down mode). Driving Chip Select (S

SPI modes M45PE40

3 SPI modes

These devices can be drive n by a microcontroller with its SPI peripheral running in either of the two following modes:
CPOL=0, CPHA=0
CPOL=1, CPHA=1
For these two modes, input data is latched in on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C), and output data is available from the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).
The difference between the two modes, as shown in Figure 4, is the clock polarity when the bus master is in standby mode and not transferring data:
C remains at 0 for (CPOL=0, CPHA=0)
C remains at 1 for (CPOL=1, CPHA=1)

Figure 3 shows an e xample of three de vices conn ected to an MCU , on an SPI b us. Only one
device is selected at a time, so only one device drives the serial data output (Q) line at a time, the other devices are high impedance. Resistors R (represente d in Figure 3) ensure that the M45PE40 is not selected if the bus master leaves the S
line in the high impedance state. As the bus master ma y enter a state where all inpu ts/outputs are in high impedance at the same time (for example, when the bus mast er is reset), the clock line (C) must be connected to an external pull-down resistor so that, when all inputs/outputs become high impedance, the S C do not become High at the same time, and so, that the t typical value of R is 100 k, assuming that the time constant R*C
line is pulled High while the C line is pulled Low (thus ensuring that S a nd
requirement is met). The
SHCH
(Cp = parasitic
p
capacitance of the bus line) is shorter than the time during which the bus master leaves the SPI bus in high impedance.

M45PE40 SPI modes
Example: Cp = 50 pF, that is R*Cp = 5 µs <=> the application must ensure that the bus
master never leaves the SPI bus in the high impedance state for a time period shorter than 5µs.

Operating features M45PE40

4 Operating features

4.1 Sharing the overhead of modifying data

To write or program one (or more) data bytes, two instructions are required: write enable (WREN), which is one byte, and a page write (PW) or page program (PP) sequence, which consists of four byte s plus data. This is followed by the int ernal cycle (of duration t
To share this overhead, the page write (PW) or page program (PP) instruction allows up to 256 bytes to be prog rammed (chan ging bits from 1 to 0) or written (changing bit s to 0 or 1) at a time, provided that they lie in consecutive addresses on the same page of memory.

4.2 An easy way to modify data

The page write (PW) instruction provides a convenient way of modifying data (up to 256 contiguous bytes at a time), and simply requires the start address, and the new data in the instruction sequence.
PW
or tPP).
The page write (PW) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S transmitting the instruction byte, three address bytes (A23-A0) and at least one data b yte, and then driving Chip Select (S bytes are written to the data buffer, starting at the address given in the third address byte (A7-A0). When Chip Select (S unchanged, bytes of the data buffer are automatically loaded with th e values of the corresponding bytes of the addressed memory page. The addressed memory page then automatically put into an erase cycle. Finally, the addressed memory page is programmed with the contents of the data buffer.
All of this buffer management is handled internally, and is transparent to the user. The user is given the facility of being able to alter the contents of the memory on a byte-by-b yte basis .
For optimized timings, it is recommended to use the page write (PW) instruction to write all consecutive targeted bytes in a single sequence versus using several page write (PW) sequences with each containing only a few bytes (see Section 6.7: Page write (PW),
Table 14: AC characteristics (50 MHz operation), and Table 15: AC characteristics (75 MHz operation, T9HX (0.11 µm) process)).

4.3 A fast way to modify data

The page program (PP) instruction provides a fast way of modifying data (up to 256 contiguous bytes at a time), provided that it only involves resetting bits to ‘0’ that had previously been set to ‘1’.
This might be:
when the designer is programming the device for the first time
when the designer knows that the page has already been erased by an earlier page
erase (PE) or sector erase (SE) instruction. This is useful, for example, when storing a fast stream of data, having first performed the erase cycle when time was available
when the designer knows that the only changes in volve resetting bits to ‘0’ that are still
set to ‘1’. When this method is possible, it has the additional advantage of minimizing the number of unnecessary erase operations, and the extra stress incurred by each page.
For optimized timings, it is recommended to use the page program (PP) instruction to program all consecutive targeted bytes in a single sequence versus using several page program (PP) sequences with each containing only a few bytes (see Section 6.8: Page
program (PP), Table 14: AC characteristics (50 MHz operation), and Table 15: AC characteristics (75 MHz operation, T9HX (0.11 µm) process)).

4.4 Polling during a write, program or erase cycle

4.7 Status register

The status register contains two status bits that can be read by the read status register (RDSR) instruction. See Section 6.4: Read status register (RDSR) for a detailed description of the status register bits.

4.8 Protection modes

The environments where non-volatile memory devices are used can be very noisy. No SPI device can operate correctly in the presence of excessive noise. To help combat this, the M45PE40 features the following data protection mechanisms:
Power on reset and an internal timer (t
changes while the power supply is outside the operating specification
Program, erase and write instructions are checked that they consist of a number of
clock pulses that is a multiple of eight, before they are accepted for execution
All instructions that modify data must be preceded by a write enable (WREN)
instruction to set the write enable latch (WEL) bit. This bit is returned to its reset state by the following events:
–Power-up – Reset (R
eset) driven Low – Write disable (WRDI) instruction completion – Page write (PW) instruction completion – Page program (PP) instruction completion – Page erase (PE) instruction completion – Sector erase (SE) instruction completion
The hardware protected mode is entered when Write Protect (W) is driven Low,
causing the first 256 pages of memory to become read-only. When write protect (W driven High, the first 256 pages of memory behave like the other pages of memory
The Reset (Reset) signal can be driven Low to protect the contents of the memory
during any critical time, not just during power-up and power-down
In addition to the low power consumption feature, the deep power-down mod e offers
extra software protection from inadvertent write, program and erase instructions while the device is not in active use.

All instructions, addresses and data are shifted in and ou t of the device, most significant bit first.
Serial data input (D) is sampled on the first rising edge of Serial Clock (C) after Chip Select (S
) is driven Low. Then, the one-byte instruction code must be shifte d in to the device, most significant bit first, on serial data input (D), each bit being latched on the rising edges of Serial Clock (C).
The instruction set is listed in Table 3. Every instruction sequence starts with a one-byte instruction code. Depending on the
instruction, this might be followed by address bytes, or by data bytes, or by both or none. In the case of a read data bytes (READ), read data bytes at higher speed (Fast_Read) or
read status register (RDSR) instruction, the shifted-in instruction sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. Chip Select (S sequence is being shifted out.
In the case of a page write (PW), page program (PP), page erase (PE), sector erase (SE), write enable (WREN), write disable (WRDI), deep power-down (DP) or release from deep power-down (RDP) instruction, Chip Select (S boundary, otherwise the instruction is rejected, and is not executed.

6.3 Read identification (RDID)

The read identification (RDID) instruction allows to read the device identification data:
Manufacturer identification (1 byte)
Device identification (2 bytes)
A unique ID code (UID) (17 bytes, of which 16 available upon customer request)
The manufactur er id entifica tion is assigne d b y JEDEC, and has the value 20h for Numonyx. The device identif ication is assigned by the device manufacturer, and indicates the memory type in the first byte (40h), and the memory capacity of the device in the second byte (13h). The UID contains the length of the following data in the first byte (set to 10h), and 16 bytes of the optional customized factory data (CFD) content. The CFD bytes are read-only and can be programmed with cust omers data upon their demand. If the customers do not make requests, the devices are shipped with all the CFD bytes programmed to zero (00h).
Any read identification (RDID) instruction while an erase or program cycle is in progress, is not decoded, and has no effect on the cycle that is in progress.

The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S
) Low. Then, the 8-bit instruction code for the instruction is shifted in. After this, the 24-bit device identification, stored in the memory, the 8-bit CFD length followed by 16 by tes of CFD content will be shifted out on serial data output (Q). Each bit is shifted out during the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 8. The read identification (RDID) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (S
any time during data output. When Chip Select (S
) is driven High, the device is put in the st andby power mode. Once in the standby pow er mode , the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, deco de and execute instructions.

6.4 Read status register (RDSR)

The read status register (RDSR) instruction allows the status register to be read. The status register may be read at any time, even while a program, erase or write cycle is in progress. When one of these cycles is in progress, it is recommended to check the write in progress (WIP) bit before sending a ne w in struction to the de vice . It is al so possibl e to read the stat us register continuously, as shown in Figure 9.
The status bits of the status register are as follows:

6.4.1 WIP bit

The write in progress (WIP) bit indicates whether the memory is busy with a write, program or erase cycle. When set to ‘1’, such a cycle is in progress , when reset to ‘ 0’ no such cycle is in progress.

6.4.2 WEL bit

The write enable latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the internal write enable latch. When set to ‘1’ the internal write enable latch is set, when set to ‘0’ the internal write enable latch is reset and no write, program or erase instruction is accepted.

6.5 Read data bytes (READ)

The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low. The instruction code for the read data bytes (READ) instruction is followed by a 3-byte address (A23-A0), each bit being latched-in during the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Then the memory contents, at that address, is shifted out on serial data output (Q), each bit being shifted out, at a maximum frequency f
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 10. The first byte addressed can be at any location. The address is automatically incremented
to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out. The whole memory can, therefore, be read with a single read data bytes (READ) instruction. When the highest address is reached, the address counter rolls over to 000000h, allowing the read sequence to be continued indefinitely.

6.6 Read data bytes at higher speed (FAST_READ)

The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low. The instruction code for the read data bytes at higher speed (FAST_READ) instruction is followed by a 3-byte address (A23­A0) and a dummy byte, each bit being latched-in during the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Then the memory contents, at that address , is shifted out on serial data ou tput (Q ), ea ch bit being shifted out, at a maximum frequency f
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 11. The first byte addressed can be at any location. The address is automatically incremented
to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out. The whole memory can, therefore, be read with a single read data bytes at higher speed (FAST_READ) instruction. When the highest address is reached, the address counter rolls over to 000000h, allowing the read sequence to be continued indefinite ly.
The read data bytes at higher speed (FAST_READ) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (S
) High. Chip Select (S) can be driven High at an y time during data output. An y r ead data bytes at higher speed (F AST_READ) instruction, while an erase, program or write cycle is in progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

6.7 Page write (PW)

The page write (PW) instruction allows bytes to be written in the memory. Before it can be accepted, a write enable (WREN) instruction must pre viously ha v e been executed. After the write enable (WREN) instruction has been decoded, the device sets the write enable latch (WEL).
The page write (PW) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S instruction code, three address b ytes and a t least one data b yte on serial data input ( D). The rest of the page remains unchanged if no power failure occurs during this write cycle.
The page write (PW) instruction performs a page erase cycle even if only one byte is updated.
If the 8 least significant address bits (A7-A0) are not all zero, all transmitted data exceeding the addressed page boundary wrap round, and are written from the start address of the same page (the one whose 8 least significan t address bits (A7-A0) are a ll zero) . Chip Select (S

6.11 Deep power-down (DP)

Executing the deep power-down (DP) instruction is the only way to put the device in the lowest consumption mode (the deep power-down mode). It can also be used as an extra software protection mechanism, while th e device is not in active use, since in this mode, the device ignores all write, program and erase instructions.
Driving Chip Select (S
) High deselects the device, and puts the device in the standby power mode (if there is no internal cycle currently in progress). But this mode is not the deep power-down mode. The dee p pow er-do wn mode can only be ent ered b y e x ecu ting the deep power-down (DP) instruction, to reduce the standby current (from I
CC1
to I
, as specified
CC2
in Table 11). Once the device has entered the deep power-down mode, all instructions are ignored
except the release from deep power-down (RDP) instruction. This releases the de vice from this mode.
The deep power-down mode automatically stops at power-down, and the device always powers-up in the standby power mode.
The deep power-down (DP) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S by the instruction code on serial data input (D). Chip Select (S
) must be driven Low for the
) Low, followed
entire duration of the sequ ence. The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 16. Chip Select (S
) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the instruction code has been latched in, otherwise the deep power-down (DP) instruction is not executed. As soon as Chip Select (S to I
and the deep power-down mode is entered.
CC2
) is driven High, it requires a delay of tDP before the supply cu rrent is r educe d
Any deep power-down (DP) instruction, while an erase, program or write cycle is in progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

6.12 Release from deep power-down (RDP)

Once the device has entered the deep power-down mode, all instructions are ignored except the release from deep power-down (RDP) instruction. Executing this instruction takes the device out of the deep power-down mode.
The release from deep power-down (RDP) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S Low , f ollo wed b y the instruction code on serial data input (D). Chip Select (S
) must be driven
Low for the entire duration of the sequence. The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 17. The release from deep power-down (RDP) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select
(S
) High. Sending additional clock cycles on Serial Clock (C), while Chip Select (S) is driven
Low, cause the instruction to be rejected, and not executed. After Chip Select (S

cycle is in progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.
