stream. EEPROM emulation ( bit or byte alterabilit y) is easily handled wi th a self-con­tained three step Read-Modify-Write operation. Unlike conventional Flash memories that are accessed randomly with multiple address l ines and a parallel in terface, the DataFlash uses a SPI se rial interface to se quentially access its data . DataFlash sup­ports SPI mode 0 and mode 3. The simple serial interfac e facilitates hardware layout, increases system reliability, minimizes switching noise, and reduces package size and active pin count. The device is optimized for use in many commercial and i ndustrial applications where high density, low pin count, low voltage, and low power are essential. The device operates at clock frequencies up to 20 MHz with a typical active read current consumption of 4 mA.
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the AT45DB321B does not require high input voltages fo r programming. The device operates from a single power supply,
2.7V to 3.6V, for both the program and read operations. The AT45DB321B is enabled through the chip select pin (C S
) and accessed via a three-wire interface con sisting of
the Serial Input (SI), Serial Output (SO), and the Serial Clock (SCK). All programming cycles are self-timed, and no separate erase cycle is required before
programming. When the device is shipped from Atmel, the most significant page of the memory array
may not be erased. In other words, the contents of the last page may not be filled with FFH.

To provide optimal flexibility, the memory array of the AT45DB321B is divided into three levels of granularity comprising of sectors, blocks, and pages. The Memory Architecture Diagram illus trates the br eakdown of eac h leve l and details the nu mber o f pages per sector and block. All program operations to the DataFlash occur on a page-by-page basis; however, the optional erase operations can be performe d at the block or pag e level.

Device Operation The device operation is controlled by instructions from the host processor. The list of

instructions and their associated opcodes are contained in Tables 1 through 4. A valid instruction starts wit h the falling ed ge of CS and the desired buffer or main memory address location. While the CS gling the SCK pin controls the loading of the opcode and the desired buffer or main memory address loc ation thro ugh the SI (seri al input) pin . All instr uctions, addr esses and data are transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.
Buffer addressing is reference d in the datas heet usin g the termin ology BFA 9 - BFA0 to denote the ten address bits required to designate a byte address within a buffer. Main memory addressing is referenced using the terminology PA12 - PA0 and BA9 - BA0 where PA12 - PA0 denotes the 13 address bits required to designate a page address and BA9 - BA0 denotes the ten address bits required to designate a byte address within the page.

Read Commands By specifying the appro priate opcode, data c an be read from the main mem ory or from

either one of the two data buffers. The DataFlash supports two categories of read modes in relation to th e SCK s ignal . The dif ferenc es be tween the modes are in res pect to the inactive state of the SCK si gnal as well as whi ch cloc k cycl e data wi ll begin to be output. The two categories, which are comprised of four modes total, are defined as Inactive Clock Polarity Lo w or Inactive Clock Polarity High and SPI Mode 0 or SPI Mode 3. A separate opcode (refer to Table 1 on page 10 for a complete list) is used to select which category will be used for reading. Please refer to the “Detailed Bit-level Read Timing” diagrams i n this datasheet fo r details on the clock cycle sequences for each mode.
CONTINUOUS ARRAY READ: By supplying an initial starting a ddress for the mai n memory array, the Continuous Array Read command can b e utilized to sequentially read a continuous strea m of data from the device by simp ly pro viding a cl ock sig nal; no additional addressing information or control signals need to be provided. The DataFlash incorporates an internal address counter that will automatically increment on every clock

cycle, allowing one con tinuous read ope ration without th e need of addition al address sequences. To perform a continuous read, an opcode of 68H or E8H must be clocked into the device followed by 24 address bits and 32 don’t care bits. The first bit of the 24-bit address sequence is reserved for upward and downward compatibility to larger and smaller density devices (see Notes under “Command Sequence for Read/Write Operations” diagram ). Th e next 13 address bits (PA12 - PA0) specify whic h pa ge of th e main memory array to read, and the last ten bits (BA9 - BA0) of the 24-bit address sequence specify the starting byte address within the page. The 32 don’t care bits that follow the 24 address bits are needed to initialize the read operation. Following the 32 don’t care bits, additional clock pulses on the SCK pin will result in serial data being out­put on the SO (serial output) pin.
The CS care bits, and the read ing of data. When the en d of a page in ma in memor y is reache d during a Continuous Array Read, the device will continue reading at the beginning of the next page with no delays incurred during the page boundary crossover (the crossover from the end of one pag e to the beginn ing of the nex t page). When th e last bit in the main memory array has been read, the device will continue reading back at the begin­ning of the first page of memory. As with crossing over page boundar ies, no dela ys will be incurred when wrapping around from the end of the array to the beginning of the array.
A low-to-high tran sition on the CS SO pin. The maximum SCK frequency allowable for the Continuous Array Read is defined by the f ers and leaves the contents of the buffers unchanged.
MAIN MEMORY PAGE READ: A Main Memory Page Read allows the user to read data directly from any one of the 8192 pages in the main memory, bypassing both of the data buffers and leaving the contents of the buffers unchanged. To start a page read, an opcode of 52H or D2 H m us t b e cl oc ke d i nto th e d ev ice fol low ed by 24 a ddres s bi ts an d 32 don’t care bits. Th e firs t bi t of the 24-bi t add re ss seque nc e is a res er ved bi t, the nex t 13 address bits (PA12 - PA0) specify the page address, and the next ten address bits (BA9 - BA0) specify the starting byte address within the page. The 32 don’t care bits which follow the 24 address bits are sent to initialize the read operation.

loaded into the device. After the last bit of the opcode is shifted in, the eight bits of the status register, startin g with the MSB (bi t 7), will be shift ed out on the SO pin dur ing the next eight clock cycles. The five most significant bits of the status register will contain device information, while the remaining three least-significant bits are reserved for future use and will have undefined value s. After bit 0 of the status register has been shifted out, the sequence will repeat itself (as long as CS gled) starting again with bit 7. The data in the status register is constantly updated, so each repeating sequence will output new data.

Ready/Busy status is indicated using bit 7 of the status register. If bit 7 is a 1, then the device is not busy and is ready to accept the next command. If bit 7 is a 0, then the device is in a busy state. The user can continuously poll bit 7 of the s tatus register by stopping SCK at a l ow lev el on ce bi t 7 has b een ou tput . T he status o f b it 7 wi ll continue to be output on the SO pin, and once the device is no longer busy, the state of SO will change from 0 to 1. There are eight operations which can cause the device to be in a busy state: Main Memory Page to Buffer Transfer, Main Memory Page to Buffer Com­pare, Buffer to Ma in Me mory P age P rogram with Buil t-in E rase, Buff er to M ain M emory Page Program without Built-in Erase, Page Erase, Block Erase, Main Memory Page Program, and Auto Page Rewrite.

Program and Erase Commands

The result of the most recent Main Memory Page to Buffer Compare operation is indi­cated using bit 6 of the status register. If bit 6 is a 0, then the data in the main memory page matches the data in the buffer. If bit 6 is a 1, then at least one bit of the data in the main memory page does not match the data in the buffer.
The device density is indicated using bits 5, 4, 3 and 2 of the status register. For the AT45DB321B, the four bits are 1, 1, 0 and 1. The decimal value of these four binary bits does not equate to the device density; the fou r bits represent a c ombinational code relating to differ ing d ensiti es of S erial DataFl ash device s, all owing a to tal of s ixt een d if­ferent density configurations.
BUFFER WRITE: Data can be shifted in fr om the SI pi n into eith er buffe r 1 or buffe r 2. To load data into either buffer, an 8-bit opcode, 84H for buffer 1 or 87H for buffer 2, must be followed by 14 don ’t care bit s and ten ad dress bits (BFA9 - BFA0) . The ten addr ess bits specify th e first byt e in the buffer to be writ ten. The dat a is entere d followin g the address bits. If the end of the data buffer is reached, the device will wrap around back to the beginning of the buffer. Dat a will cont inue to be loaded i nto the buf fer until a low- to­high transition is detected on the CS
BUFFER TO MAIN MEMORY PAGE PROGRAM WITH BUILT-IN E RASE: Dat a written into either buffer 1 or buffer 2 can be programmed into the main memory.

When a low-to-high transition occurs on the
pin, the part will first erase the selected page in main memory to all 1s and then pro-
CS gram the data stored in the b uffer in to the sp ecifi ed page i n the main memor y. Both the erase and the programming of the page are internally self-tim ed and should take place in a maximum time of t busy.

MAIN MEMORY PAGE PROGRAM THROUGH BUFFER: This operatio n is a com bi na-
tion of the Buffer Write and Buffer to Main Memor y Page Program wi th Built-in Erase operations. Data is first shifted into buffer 1 or buffer 2 from the SI pin and then pro­grammed into a specified page in the main memory. To initiate the operation, an 8-bit opcode, 82H for buffer 1 or 85H for buffer 2, must be followed by one reserved bit and 23 address bits. The 13 most significant address bits (PA12 - PA 0) select the page in the main memory w here data is to be writt en, and the next ten add ress bits (BFA9 - BFA0) select the first byte in the buffer to be written. A fter all address bits are shifted in, the part w ill ta ke dat a fr om the SI pi n an d s tor e it in one of t he d ata buffers. If the end of the buffer is reached, the device will wrap around back to the beginning of the buffer. When there is a low-to-high transition on the CS selected pag e in main m emory t o all 1s and the n progr am the da ta sto red in the buffer into the specified page in the main memory. Both the erase and the programming of the page are internally self-timed and should take place in a maximum of time t this time, the status register will indicate that the part is busy.

Additional Commands MAIN MEMORY PAGE TO BUFFER TRANSFER: A page of data can be transferred

from the main memory t o either buffer 1 or buffer 2. To sta rt the operation, an 8-bit opcode, 53H for buffer 1 and 55H for buffer 2, must be follo wed by one reser ved bit, 13 address bits (PA12 - PA0) which specify the page in main memory that is to be trans­ferred, and ten don ’t care bits. Th e CS load the opcode, the address bits, and the don’t care bits from the SI pin. The transfer of the page of data from the main memory to the buffer will begin when the CS tions from a low to a high state.

MAIN MEMORY PAGE TO BUFFER COMPARE: A page of data in main memory can be compared to the data in buffer 1 or buffer 2. To initiate the operation, an 8-bit opcode, 60H for buffer 1 and 61H for buffer 2, mus t be foll owed by 24 address bits consis ting of one reserved bit, 13 address bits (PA12 - PA0) which specify the page in the main mem­ory that is to be compared to the buffer, and ten don’t care bits. The CS
pin must be low while toggling the SCK pin to load the opcode, the address bits, and the don’t care bits from the SI pin. On the low-to-high transition of the CS
pin, the 528 bytes in the selected main memory page will be compared with the 528 bytes in buffer 1 or buffer 2. During this time (t
), the status register will indicate that the part is busy. On completion of the
XFR
compare operation, bit 6 of the status register is updated with the result of the compare. AUT O PAG E RE WR IT E: This mode is only needed if multiple bytes within a page or
multiple pages of data are mod ified in a random fashion . This mode is a comb ina tion of two operations: Main Memory Page to Buffer Transfer and Buffer to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Er as e. A pa ge o f dat a is fi rst tr an sf er red fr om the m ain mem or y to buffer 1 or buffer 2, and then the same data (from buffer 1 or buffer 2) is programmed back into its original page of main memory. To start the rewrite operation, an 8-bit opcode, 58H for buffer 1 or 59H for buffer 2, must be followed by one reserved bit, 13 address bits (PA12 - PA0) that specify the page in main memory to be rewritten, and ten additional don’t care bits. When a low-to-high transition occurs on the CS
pin, the part will first transfer data from the page in main memory to a buffer and then program the data from the buffer back into same page of main memory. The operation is internally self-timed and sh ould ta ke plac e in a m aximum time o f t

If a sector is programmed or reprogrammed sequentiall y page-by-pa ge, then the pr o­gramming algorithm shown in Figure 1 on page 26 is recommended. Otherwise, if multiple bytes in a page or several pages are programmed randomly in a sector, then the programming alg orithm s hown i n Fig ure 2 on page 27 is r ecom mended. Each page within a sector must be updated/rewritten at least once within every 10,000 cumulative page erase/program operations in that sector.

Operation Mode Summary

The modes described can be separated into two groups – modes which make use of the Flash memory array (Group A) and modes which do not make use of the Flash memory array (Group B).
Group A modes consist of:
1. Main Memory Page Read
2. Main Memory Page to Buffer 1 (or 2) Transfer
3. Main Memory Page to Buffer 1 (or 2) Compare
4. Buffer 1 (or 2) to Main Memory Page Program with Built-in Erase
5. Buffer 1 (or 2) to Main Memory Page Program without Built-in Erase
6. Page Erase
7. Block Erase
8. Main Memory Page Program through Buffer
9. Auto Page Rewrite Group B modes consist of:
1. Buffer 1 (or 2) Read
2. Buffer 1 (or 2) Write
3. Status Register Read If a Group A mode is in pr ogress (n ot fully completed) then another mo de in Group A
should not be started. However, during this time in which a Gr oup A mode is in progress, modes in Group B can be started.
This gives the Serial DataFlash the ability to virtually accommodate a continuous data stream. While data is being programmed into main memory from buffer 1, data can be loaded into b uffer 2 (or v ice ver sa). S ee appl icatio n note AN-4 (“Using Atmel ’s Ser ial DataFlash”) for more details.

Pin Descriptions SERIAL INPUT (SI): The SI pin is an input-only pin and is used to shift data into the

device. The SI pin is used for all data input including opcodes and address sequences. SERIAL OUTPUT (SO): The SO pin is an output-only pin and is used to shift data out
from the device. SERIAL CLOCK (SCK): The SCK pin is an input-only pin and is used to control the flow
of data to and fr om the Da taFlas h. Data is alw ays cloc ked in to the de vice on the risi ng edge of SCK and clocked out of the device on the falling edge of SCK.

The busy status indicates that the Flash memory array and one of the buffers cannot be accessed; read and write operations to the other buffer can still be performed.

Power-on/Reset State When power is first applied to the device, or when recovering from a reset condition, the

device will defau lt to S PI Mode 3. In add ition, th e SO pin will be i n a high -impedanc e state, and a high-to -low tran sition on the CS tion. The SPI mode wil l be automatically sel ected on every falli ng edge of CS sampling the inactive clock state.
