SUMMARY DESCRIPTION

The M29W640D is a 64 Mbit (8Mb x8 or 4Mb x16) non-volatile memory that can be read, erased and reprogrammed. These operations can be per­formed using a single low voltage (2.7 to 3.6V) supply. On power-up the memory d efaults to its Read mode where it can be read in the same way as a ROM or EPROM.
The memory is divided into blocks that can be erased independently so it is pos sible to pres erve valid data while old data is erased. Blocks can be protected in units of 256 KByte (generally groups of four 64 KByte blocks), to prevent accidental Program or Erase commands from modifying the memory. Program and Erase com m ands are wri t­ten to the Command Interface of t he memory. An on-chip Program/Erase Controller simplifies the process of programming or erasing the memory by taking care of all of the special operations that are required to update the memory contents. The end of a program or erase op eration can be de tected and any error conditions identified. The command set required to control the memory is consistent with JEDEC standards.
The device features an asymmetrical blocked ar­chitecture. The device has an array of 135 blocks:
8 Parameters Blocks of 8 KBytes each (or
4KWords each)
127 Main Blocks of 64 KBytes each (or
32 KWords each)
M29W640DT has the Parameter Blocks at the top of the memory address space while the M29W640DB locates the Parameter Blo cks start­ing from the bottom.
The M29W640D has an extra block, the Extended Block, (of 32 KWords in x16 mode or of 64 KBytes in x8 mode) that can be accessed using a dedicat­ed command. The Extended Block can be protect­ed and so is useful for storing security information. However the protection is not reversible, once pro­tected the protection cannot be undone.
Chip Enable, Output Enable and Write Enable sig­nals control the bus operation of the memory. They allow simple conne ction to most m icropro­cessors, often without additional logic.
The V
/WP signal is used to enable faster pro-
PP
gramming of the device, enabling double word programming. If this signal is held at V
, the boot
SS
block, and its adjacent parameter blo ck, are pro­tected from program and erase operations.
The memor y is del ivered with all t he bit s eras ed (set to 1).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS

See Figure 2, Logic Diagram, and T able 1, Sign al Names, for a brief overview of the signals connect­ed to this device.

Address Inputs (A0-A21). The Address Inputs select the cells i n the memory array to a ccess dur­ing Bus Read operations. During Bus Write opera­tions they control the commands sent to the Command Interface of the Program/Erase Con­troller.

Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). The Data I/O outputs the data stored at the selected address during a Bus Read operation. During Bus Write operations they represent the commands sent to the Command Interface of the Program/Erase Controller.

Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ8-DQ14). The Data I/O outputs the data stored at the selected address during a Bus Read operation when B Y TE V

. When BYTE is Low, VIL, these pins are not
IH
used and are high impedance. During Bus Write operations the Command Register does not use these bits. When reading the Status Register these bits should be ignored.

Data Input/Output o r Address Input (DQ15A –1).

When BYTE
is High, VIH, this pin behaves as a
Data Input/Output pin (as DQ8-DQ14). When
is Low, VIL, this pin behaves as an address

pin; DQ15A–1 Low will select the LSB of the ad­dressed Word, DQ15A–1 High will select the MSB. Throughout the text consider references to the Data Input/Output to include this pin when BYTE High and references to the Address Inputs to in­clude this pin when BYTE
is Low except when
stated explicitly otherwise.

trols the Bus Read operation of the memory.
Write Enable (W
). The Write Enable, W, controls

Write Protect (VPP/WP). The VPP/Write
V

After a Hardware Reset, Bus Read and Bus Write operations cannot begin until Ready/Busy be­comes high-impedance. See Tabl e 15 and Figure 12, Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect AC Charac­teristics.
The use of an open-drain output allows the Ready/ Busy pins from several memories to be connected to a single pull-up resistor. A Low will then indicate that one, or more, of the memories is busy.

BUS OPERATIONS

There are five standard bus operations that control the device. These are Bus Read, Bus Wri te, Out­put Disable, Standby and Automatic Standby. See Table 2 and T able 3, Bus Operat ions, for a sum­mary. Typically glitches of less than 5ns on Chip Enable or Write Enable are ignored by the memory and do not affect bus operations.

Bus Read. Bus Read operations read from the memory cells, or specific registers in the Com­mand Interface. A valid Bus Read operation in­volves setting the desired address on the Address Inputs, applying a Low sig nal, V and Output Enable and keeping Write Enable High, V

. The Data Inputs/Outputs will output the
IH
value, see Figure 9, Read Mode AC Waveforms, and Table 12, Read AC Characteristics, for details of when the output becomes valid.

Bus Write. Bus Write operations write to the Command Interface. A valid Bus Write operation begins by setting the desire d address on t he Ad­dress Inputs. The Address Inputs are latched by the Command Interface on the falling edge of Chip Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs last. The Data Inputs/Outputs a re latched by the Com­mand Interface on the rising edge of Chip Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs first. Output En­able must remain High, V

IH
Write operation. See Figure 10 and Figure 11, Write AC Waveforms, and Table 13 and Table 14, Write AC Characteristics, for details of the timing requirements.

Output Disa bl e . The Data Inputs/Outputs are in the high impedance s tate when Output Enable is High, V

til the operation completes. Automatic Standby. If CMOS levels (V

± 0.2V)
CC
are used to drive the bus and the bus is inactive for 300ns or more the memory enters Automatic Standby where the internal Supply Current is re­duced to the Standby Supply Current, I

. The Data Inputs/Outputs will still output data if a Bus Read operation is in progress.

Special Bus Operations

Additional bus operations can be performed to read the Electronic Signature and also to apply and remove Block Protec tion. These bus opera­tions are intended for use by programming equip­ment and are not usually used in applications. They require V
to be applied to some pins.
ID

Electronic Signature. The memory has two codes, the manufacturer code and the device code, that can be read to identify the memory. These codes can be read by applying t he signals listed in Table 2 and Table 3, Bus Operations.

Block Protect and Chip Unprotect.

Groups of blocks can be protected against accidental Pro­gram or Erase. The P rotec tion G roups are shown in Appendix A, Table 19 and Table 20, Block Ad­dresses. The whole chip can be unprotected to al­low the data inside the blocks to be changed.

COMMAND INTERFACE

All Bus Write operations t o the me mory are in ter­preted by the Command Interface. Commands consist of one or more sequential Bus Write oper­ations. Failure to observe a valid sequence of Bus Write operations will result in the memory return­ing to Read mode. The long command sequences are imposed to maximize data security.
The address used for the commands changes de­pending on whether the memory is in 16-bit or 8­bit mode. See either Table 4, or Table 5, depend­ing on the configuration that is being used, for a summary of the commands.

Read/Reset Command.

The Read/Reset command returns the memory to its Read mode where it behaves like a ROM or EPROM. It also resets the errors in the Status Register. Either one or three Bus Write operations can be used to issue the Read/Reset command.
The Read/Reset command can be issued, be­tween Bus Write cycles before the start of a pro­gram or erase operation, to return the device to read mode. If the Read/Reset command is issued during the timeout of a Block erase operation then
the memory will take up to 10µs to abort. During the abort period no valid data can be read from the memory. The Read/Reset command will not abort an Erase operation when issued while in Erase Suspend.

Auto Select Command.

The Auto Select command is used to read the Manufacturer Code, the Device Code , the Block Protection Status and the Extended Memory Block Verify Code. Three c onsecutive Bus W rite opera­tions are required to iss ue the Auto Select com­mand. Once the Auto Select command is issued the memory remains in Auto Select mode until a Read/Reset command is issued. Read CFI Query and Read/Reset comma nds are ac cept ed i n Aut o Select mode, all other commands are ignored.
In Auto Select mode the Manufac turer Code can be read using a Bus Read operation with A0 = V and A1 = VIL. The other address bits may be set to either V Microelectronics is 0020h.
The Device Code can be read using a B us Read operation with A0 = V address bits may be set to e ither V Device Code for the M29W640DT is 22DEh and for the M29W640DB is 22DFh.
The Bl ock Prot ection S tatus of each block can be read using a Bus Read operation with A0 = V A1 = V the bl ock. The oth er addr ess bit s may b e set t o ei­ther V then 01h is output on Data Inputs/Outputs DQ0­DQ7, otherwise 00h is output.

Read CFI Query Command

The Read CFI Query Command is used to read data from the Common Flash Interface (CFI) Memory Area. This command is valid when the de­vice is in the Read Array mode, or when the device is in Autose lec ted mode .
One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the Read CFI Query Command. Once the command is is­sued subsequent Bus Read ope rations read from the Common Flash Interface Memory Area.
The Read/Reset command m ust be issued to re­turn the device to the previous mode (the Read Ar­ray mode or Autoselected mode). A second Read/ Reset command would be needed if the device is to be put in the Read Array mode from Autoselect­ed mode.
See Appendix B, Table 21 to Table 26 for details on the information contained in the Common Flash Interface (CFI) memory area.

Program Command.

The Program command can be used to program a value to one address in the memory array at a time. The command requires four Bus Write oper­ations, the final write operation latches the ad­dress and data, and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
If the address falls in a pro tected block then the Program command is ignored, the data remains unchanged. The Status Register is never read and no error condition is given.
During the program operat ion the memo ry will ig­nore all commands. I t is n ot poss ible t o iss ue any command to abort or pause the operation. Typical program times are given in Table 6. Bus Read op­erations during the program o peration will output the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the section on the S tatus Register for more details.
After the program operation has completed the memory will return to the Read mode, unle ss an
IL
error has occurred. When an error occurs the memory will continue to output the Status Regis­ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re­set the error condition and return to Read mode.
Note that the Program command cannot change a bit set at ’0’ bac k to ’1’. One of the E rase Com­mands must be used to set all the bits in a block or in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.

Fast Program Commands

There are two Fast Program com man ds availa ble
,
to improve the programming throughput, by writing several adjacent words or bytes in parallel. The Quadruple Byte Program command is available for x8 operations, while the Double Word Program command is available for x16 operations.
12/50
M29W640DT, M29W640DB

Quadruple Byte Program Command. The Qua-

druple Byte Program command is used to write a page of four adjacent Bytes in parallel. The four bytes must differ only for addresses A0, DQ15A-1. Five bus write cycles are necessary to issue the Quadruple Byte Program command .
The first bus cycle sets up the Quadruple Byte
Program Command.
The second bus cycle latches the Address and
the Data of the first byte to be written.
The third bus cycle latches the Address and the
Data of the second byte to be written.
The fourth bus cycle latches the Address and
the Data of the third byte to be written.
The fifth bus cycl e latches the Addres s and th e
Data of the fourth byte to be written and starts the Program/Erase Controller.

Double Word Program Command. The Double Word Program command is used to write a p age of two adjacent words in parallel. Th e two words must differ only for the address A0.

Three bus write cycles are necessary to issue the Double Word Program command.
The first bus cycle sets up the Double Word
Program Command.
The second bus cycle latches the Address and
the Data of the first word to be written.
The third bus cycle latches the Address and the
Data of the second word to be written and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
Only one bank can be programmed at any one time. The other b ank must be in Read mode or Erase Suspend.
Programming should not be attempted when V is not at V
PPH
.
PP
After programming has started, Bus Read opera­tions in the Bank being programmed output the Status Register content, while Bus Read opera­tions to the other B ank outpu t the cont ents of t he memory ar ray.
After the program operation has completed the memory will return to the Read mode, unle ss an error has occurred. When an error occurs Bus Read operations to the Bank where the command was issued will continue to output the Status Reg­ister. A Read/Reset command must be issued to reset the error condition and return t o Read mode.
Note that the Fast Program commands cannot
change a bit set at ’0’ back to ’1’. One of the Erase Commands must be used to set all the bits in a block or in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.
Typical Program times are given in Tab le 6, Pro­gram, Erase Times and Program, Erase Endur­ance Cycles.

Unlock Bypass Command.

The Unlock Bypass command is used in conjunc­tion with the Unlock Bypass Program command to program the memory faster than with the standard program commands. When th e cycle time to the device is long (as with some EPROM program­mers) considerable time saving can be m ade by using these commands. Three Bus Write opera­tions are required to issue the Unlock Bypass command.
Once the Unlock Bypas s command has bee n is­sued the memory will only accept the Unloc k By­pass Program command and the Unlock Bypass Reset command. The memory can be read as if in Read mode.
When V
is applied to the VPP/Write Protect pin
PP
the memory automatically enters the Unlock By­pass mode and the Unlock Bypass Program com­mand can be issued immediately.

Unlock Bypass Program Command.

The Unlock Bypass command is used in conjunc­tion with the Unlock Bypass Program command to program the memory. Whe n the cycle time t o the device is long (as with some EPROM program­mers) considerable time saving can be m ade by using these commands. Three Bus Write opera­tions are required to issue the Unlock Bypass command.
Once the Unlock Bypas s command has bee n is­sued the memory will only accept the Unloc k By­pass Program command and the Unlock Bypass Reset command. The memory can be read as if in Read mode.
The memory offers accelerated program opera­tions through the V system asserts V
/Write Protect pin. When the
PP
on the VPP/Write Protect pin,
PP
the memory automatically enters the Unlock By­pass mode. The system may then write the two­cycle Unlock Bypass program command se­quence. The memory uses the higher voltage on the V
/Write Protect pin, to accelerate the Unlock
PP
Bypass Program operation. Never raise V
/Write Protect to VPP from any
PP
mode except Read m ode, otherwise the memory may be left in an indeterminate state.

Unlock Bypass Reset Command.

The Unlock Bypass Rese t command can be used to return to Read/Reset mode from Unlock Bypass Mode. Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the Unlock Bypass Reset command. Read/ Reset command does not exit from Unlock Bypass Mode.

Chip Erase Command.

The Chip Erase command can be used to erase the entire chip. Six Bus Write operations a re re-
13/50
M29W640DT, M29W640DB
quired to issue the Chip Erase Command and start the Program/Erase Controller.
If any blocks are protected then these are ignored and all the other blocks are erased. If all of the blocks are protect e d th e Chip Erase op erat i on ap-
pears to start but will terminate within about 100µs, leaving the data unchanged. No error condition is given when protected blocks are ignored.
During the erase operation the memory will ignore all commands, including the Erase Suspen d com­mand. It is not possible to i ssue any c ommand t o abort the operation. Typical chip erase tim es are given in Table 6. All Bus Read operations during the Chip Erase operation will output the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the sec­tion on the Status Register for more details.
After the Chip Erase operation has completed t he memory will return to the Read Mode, unle ss an error has occurred. When an error occurs the memory will continue to output the Status Regis­ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re­set the error condition and return to Read Mode.
The Chip Erase Command sets all of the bits in un­protected blocks of the memory to ’1’. All previous data is lost.

Block Erase Command.

The Block Erase com mand can be used to erase a list of one or more blocks. Six Bus Write opera­tions are required to select the first block in the li st. Each additional block in the list can be selected by repeating the sixth Bus Write operation using the address of the additional block. The B lock Erase operation starts the Program/Erase Controller about 50µs after the last Bus Write operation. Once the Pr ogram /Erase Co ntroller st arts it is not possible to select any more blocks. Each addition­al block must therefore be selected within 50µs of the last block. The 50µs timer restarts when an ad­ditional block is selected. The Status Register can be read after the sixth B us Write operation. See the Status Register section for details on how to identify if the Program/ Erase Con troller has st art­ed the Block Erase operation.
If any selected blocks are protected then these are ignored and all the other selected blocks are erased. If all of the selected blocks are p rotected the Block Erase operation appears to start but will terminate within about 100µs, leaving the data un­changed. No error condition is given when protect­ed blocks are ignored.
During the Block Erase operation the me mory wi ll ignore all commands except the Erase Susp end command. Typical b lock era se tim es are g iven in Table 6. All Bus Read operations during the Block Erase ope ra tion will outp ut the S t atus R e gister on the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the section on the Status Register for more details.
After the Block Erase operation has completed the memory will return to the Read Mode, unle ss an error has occurred. When an error occurs the memory will continue to output the Status Regis­ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re­set the error condition and return to Read mode.
The Block Erase Command sets all of the bits in the unprotected selected blocks to ’1’. All previous data in the selected blocks is lost.

Erase Suspend Command.

The Erase Suspend Command may be used to temporarily suspend a B lock Eras e operation and return the memory to Read mode. T he comm and requires one Bus Write operation.
The Program/Erase Controller will sus pend within the Erase Suspend Latency time of the Erase Sus­pend Command being issued. Once the Program/ Erase Controller has stopped the mem ory will be set to Read mode and the E ras e wi ll be s uspend­ed. If the Erase Suspend command is issued dur­ing the period when the memory is waiting for an additional block (before the Program/Er ase Con­troller starts) then the Erase is suspended immedi­ately and will start immediately when the Erase Resume Command is issued. It is not possibl e to select any further blocks to erase after the Erase Resume.
During Erase Suspend it is possible to Read and Program cells in blocks that are not being erased; both Read and Program operations behave as normal on these blocks. If any attempt is made to program in a protected block or in the suspended block then the Program comm and is ignored and the data remains unchanged. The Status Register is not read and no error condi tion is given. Read­ing from blocks that are being erased will output the Status Register.
It is also possible to issue the Auto Select, Read CFI Query and Unlock Bypass commands du ring an Erase Suspend. The Read/Reset command must be issued to return the device to Read Array mode before the Resume command will be ac­cepte d.

Erase Resume Command.

The Erase Resume command must be used to re­start the Program/Erase Controller after an Erase Suspend. The device must be in Read Array mode before the Resume command will be accepted. An erase can be suspe nded and resumed mo re t han once.

Enter Extended Block Command

The device has an extra 64 KByte block (Extended Block) that can on ly be acc essed usin g the Enter Extended Block command. Three Bus write cycles are required to issue the Extended Block com­mand. Once the c ommand has been issued the device enters Extended Block mode where all Bus
14/50
M29W640DT, M29W640DB
Read or Write operations to the Boot Block ad­dresses access the Extended Bloc k. The Extend­ed Block (with the same address as the Boot Blocks) cannot be erased, and can be t reated as one-time programmable (OTP) memory. In Ex­tended Block mode the Boot Blocks are not acces­sible.
To exit from the Extended Block mode the Exit Ex­tended Block command must be issued.
The Extended Block can be protected, however once protected the protection cannot be undone.

Exit Extended Block Com m a n d

The Exit Extended Block command is used to exit from the Extended Block mod e and ret urn the de-
vice to Read mode. Four Bus Write operations are required to issue the command.
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect Commands Groups of blocks can be protected against acci-
dental Program or Erase. The Protection Groups are shown in Appendix A, T able 1 9 and T able 20, Block Addresses. The whole chip can be unpro­tected to allow the data inside the blocks to be changed.
Block Protect and Chip Unprote ct operations are described in Appendix D.
