DESCRIPTION
TheM29W800A isa non-volatile memory that may be erased electrically at the blockor chiplevel and programmed in-system on a Byte-by-Byte or Word-by-Word basis using only a single 2.7V to
3.6V VCCsupply. For Program and Erase opera­tions the necessary high voltages are generated internally. The device can also be programmed in standard programmers.
The array matrix organisation allowseach block to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting other blocks. Blocks can be protected against pro­graming and erase on programming equipment, and temporarily unprotected to make changes in the application. Each block can be programmed and erased over 100,000 cycles.
Instructions for Read/Reset, Auto Select for read­ing the Electronic Signature or Block Protection status, Programming, Block and Chip Erase, Erase Suspend and Resume are written to the de­vice in cycles of commands to a Command Inter­face using standardmicroprocessor write timings.
The device is offered in TSOP48 (12 x 20mm), SO44 and LFBGA48 0.8 mm ball pitch packages.

Memory Blocks
The devices featureasymmetrically blocked archi­tecture providing system memoryintegration. Both M29W800AT and M29W800AB devices have an array of19blocks, one Boot Blockof 16KBytes or 8 KWords, two Parameter Blocks of 8 KBytes or 4 KWords, one Main Block of 32 KBytes or 16 KWords and fifteen Main Blocks of 64 KBytes or 32 KWords. The M29W800AT has the Boot Block at the top of the memory address space and the M29W800AB locates the Boot Block startingat the bottom. The memory maps are showed in Figure
5. Each block can be erased separately, any combi-
nation of blocks can be specified for multi-block erase or theentirechip maybe erased. The Erase operations are managed automatically by the P/ E.C. The block erase operation canbe suspended in order to read from or program to any block not being erased,and then resumed.
Block protection provides additional data security. Each block can be separately protected or unpro­tected against Program or Erase on programming equipment. All previously protected blocks can be temporarily unprotected in the application.
Organisation
The M29W800A is organised as 1M x8 or 512K x16 bits selectable by the BYTE signal. When BYTE is Low the Byte-wide x8 organisation is se­lected and the address lines are DQ15A–1 and A0-A18. The Data Input/Output signal DQ15A–1 acts as address line A–1 which selects the lower or upper Byte of the memory word for output on DQ0-DQ7, DQ8-DQ14remain at High impedance. When BYTE isHigh the memory uses the address inputs A0-A18 and the Data Input/Outputs DQ0­DQ15. Memorycontrol isprovided by ChipEnable E, Output Enable G and Write Enable W inputs.
A Reset/Block Temporary Unprotection RP tri-lev­el input provides a hardware reset when pulled Low, and when held High (at VID) temporarily un­protects blocks previously protected allowingthem to be programed and erased. Erase and Program operations are controlled by an internal Program/ Erase Controller (P/E.C.). Status Register data output onDQ7 providesa Data Polling signal, and DQ6 and DQ2 provide Toggle signals to indicate the state of the P/E.C operations. A Ready/Busy RB output indicates the completion of the internal algorithms.

Bus Operations
The following operations can be performed using the appropriate buscycles: Read (Array, Electron­ic Signature, Block Protection Status), Write com­mand, Output Disable, Stan-by, Reset, Block Protection, Unprotection,Protection Verify, Unpro­tection Verify and Block Temporary Unprotection. See Tables 5and 6.
Command Interface
Instructions, made up of commands written in cy­cles, can begiven to the Program/Erase Controller through a Command Interface (C.I.). For added data protection,program orerase execution starts after 4 or 6 cycles. The first, second, fourth and fifth cycles are used to input Coded cycles to the C.I. This Coded sequence is the same for all Pro­gram/Erase Controller instructions. The ’Com­mand’ itself and its confirmation,when applicable, are given on the third, fourth or sixth cycles. Any incorrect commandor anyimproper command se­quence will reset the device to Read Array mode.
Instructions
Seven instructions are defined to perform Read Array, Auto Select (to read the Electronic Signa­ture or Block Protection Status), Program, Block Erase, ChipErase, Erase Suspend and EraseRe­sume.
The internal P/E.C. automatically handles all tim­ing and verification of the Program and Erase op­erations. The Status Register Data Polling, Toggle, Error bits and the RB output may be read at any time, during programmingor erase, tomon­itor the progress of the operation.
Instructions are composed of up to six cycles. The first two cycles input a Coded sequence to the Command Interface which is common to all in­structions (see Table 9).
The third cycle inputs the instruction set-up com­mand. Subsequent cycles output the addressed data, Electronic Signatureor Block Protection Sta­tus for Read operations. Inorder to give additional data protection, the instructions for Program and Block or Chip Erase require further command in­puts. For a Program instruction, the fourth com­mand cycle inputs the address and data to be programmed. For an Erase instruction (Block or Chip), the fourth and fifth cycles input a further Coded sequence before the Erase confirm com­mand on the sixth cycle. Erasure of a memory block may be suspended, in order to read data from another block or to program data in another block, and then resumed. When power is first ap­plied or if VCCfalls below V
LKO
, the command in-
terface is reset to Read Array.

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
See Figure 1 and Table 1. Address Inputs (A0-A18). The address inputs
for thememory arrayarelatched duringa writeop­eration on the falling edge at Chip Enable E or Write Enable W. In Word-wide organisation the address lines are A0-A18, in Byte-wide organisa­tion DQ15A–1 acts as an additional LSB address line. WhenA9 is raised to VID, eithera Read Elec­tronic Signature Manufacturer or Device Code, Block Protection Status ora Write BlockProtection or BlockUnprotection isenableddepending on the combination oflevels on A0, A1,A6, A12andA15.
Data Input/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). These Inputs/ Outputs are used in theByte-wide and Word-wide organisations. Theinput isdata to beprogrammed in the memory array ora command tobe written to the C.I.Both are latched onthe rising edge ofChip Enable E or Write Enable W. The output is data from the Memory Array, the Electronic Signature Manufacturer or Device codes, the Block Protec­tion Status or the Status register Data Polling bit DQ7, the Toggle Bits DQ6 and DQ2, the Error bit DQ5 ortheErase Timer bitDQ3. Outputs arevalid when Chip Enable E andOutput Enable G are ac­tive. The output is high impedance when the chip is deselected or the outputs are disabled and when RP isat a Low level.
Data Input/Outputs (DQ8-DQ14 and DQ15A–
1). These Inputs/Outputs are additionally used in
the Word-wide organisation. When BYTE is High DQ8-DQ14 and DQ15A–1 act as the MSB of the Data Input or Output, functioning as described for DQ0-DQ7 above, and DQ8-DQ15 are ’don’t care’ for command inputs or status outputs. When BYTE is Low, DQ0-DQ14 are high impedance, DQ15A–1 is the Address A–1 input.
Chip Enable (E). The Chip Enable input acti­vates the memory control logic, input buffers, de­coders andsense amplifiers.E Highdeselects the memory and reduces the power consumption to the stan-by level. E can also be used to control writing to the command register and to the memo­ry array, while W remains at a low level. The Chip Enable must be forcedto VIDduring the Block Un­protection operation.
Output Enable (G). The Output Enable gates the outputs through the data buffersduring a read op­eration. When G is High the outputs are High im­pedance. G must be forced to VIDlevel during Block Protection and Unprotection operations.
Write Enable (W). This input controls writing to the Command Register and Address and Data latches.
Byte/WordOrganizationSelect (BYTE). The BYTE input selects the output configuration for the de­vice: Byte-wide (x8) mode or Word-wide (x16) mode. When BYTE is Low, the Byte-wide mode is selected andthe data is read and programmed on DQ0-DQ7. In this mode, DQ8-DQ14 are at high impedance and DQ15A–1 is the LSB address. When BYTE is High, the Word-wide mode is se­lected and the data is read and programmed on DQ0-DQ15.
Ready/Busy Output (RB). Ready/Busy is an open-drain output and gives the internal state of the P/E.C. of thedevice. When RB is Low, the de­vice is Busy with a Program or Erase operation and it will not accept any additional program or erase instructions except the Erase Suspend in­struction. WhenRB is High,the deviceis ready for any Read, Program or Erase operation. The RB will also be Highwhen the memory is put in Erase Suspend or Stan-by modes.
Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect Input (RP).
The RP Input provides hardware reset and pro­tected block(s) temporary unprotection functions. Reset of the memory is achieved by pulling RP to VILfor at least t
PLPX
. When the reset pulse is giv­en, if the memory is in Read or Stan-by modes, it will be available for new operations in t
PHEL
after the rising edge of RP. If the memory is in Erase, Erase Suspend or Program modes the reset will take t
PLYH
during which the RB signal will be held at VIL. Theend of thememory reset will be indicat­ed by the rising edge of RB. A hardware reset dur­ing an Erase or Program operation will corrupt the data being programmed or the sector(s) being erased. See Tables 15, 16, and Figure 11.
Temporary block unprotection is made by holding RP at VID. In this condition previously protected blocks can be programmed or erased. The transi­tion of RP from VIHto VIDmust slower than t
PH-
PHH
. See Tables 17, 18, and Figure 11. When RP is returned from VIDto VIHall blocks temporarily unprotected will be again protected.

DEVICE OPERATIONS
See Tables 5, 6 and 7. Read. Read operations are used to output the
contents of the Memory Array, the Electronic Sig­nature, theStatus Register or the BlockProtection Status. Both Chip Enable E and Output Enable G must below in ordertoread theoutput of the mem­ory. A new operation is initiated either on the fol­lowing edge of Chip Enable E or on any address transition with E at VIL.
Write. Write operations are used to give Instruc­tion Commands to the memory or to latch input data to be programmed. A write operation is initi­ated whenChip Enable E isLow and Write Enable W is Low with Output Enable G High. Addresses are latchedon the falling edgeof W orEwhichever occurs last. Commands and Input Data are latched onthe rising edgeof Wor Ewhicheveroc­curs first.
Output Disable. The data outputs are high im­pedance when the Output Enable G is High with Write Enable W High.
Stan-by. The memory is in stan-by when Chip Enable E isHigh and the P/E.C. is idle. The power consumption is reduced to the stan-by level and the outputs are high impedance, independent of the Output Enable G or Write Enable Winputs.
Automatic Stan-by. After 150ns of bus inactivity (no addresstransition, CE=VIL) andwhen CMOS levels aredriving theaddresses, the chip automat­ically enters a pseudo-stan-by mode where con­sumption is reduced to the CMOS stan-by value, while outputs stilldrive the bus (if G = VIL).
Electronic Signature. Two codes identifying the manufacturer andthe devicecan beread from the memory. The manufacturer’s code for STMicro­electronics is 20h, the device code is D7h for the M29W800AT (Top Boot) and 5Bh for the M29W800AB (Bottom Boot). These codes allow programming equipment or applications to auto­matically match their interface to the characteris­tics ofthe M29W800A. TheElectronic Signature is output by a Read operation when the voltage ap­plied to A9 is at VIDandaddress inputs A1 isLow. The manufacturer code is output when the Ad­dress input A0 is Low and the device code when this input is High. Other Address inputs are ig­nored. The codes are output on DQ0-DQ7.
The Electronic Signature canalso be read, without raising A9 to VID, by giving the memory the In­struction AS. If the Byte-wide configuration is se­lected the codes are output on DQ0-DQ7 with DQ8-DQ14 at High impedance; if the Word-wide configuration is selected the codes are output on DQ0-DQ7 withDQ8-DQ15 at 00h.
Block Protection. Each block can be separately protected against Program or Erase on program­ming equipment. Block protection provides addi­tional data security, as it disables all program or erase operations. This mode is activated when both A9 and G are raised to VIDand anaddress in the block is applied on A12-A18. Block protection is initiated on theedge ofW fallingto VIL. Then af­ter a delay of 100µs, the edge of W rising to V
IH
ends the protection operations. Block protection verify is achieved by bringing G, E, A0 and A6 to VILand A1 to VIH, while W is at VIHand A9 at VID. Under these conditions, reading the data output will yield 01h if the block defined by the inputs on A12-A18 is protected. Any attempt to program or erase a protected block will be ignored by the de­vice.
Block Temporary Unprotection. Any previously protected block can be temporarily unprotected in order to change stored data. The temporary un­protection mode isactivatedby bringing RP toVID. During the temporary unprotection mode the pre­viously protected blocks are unprotected. A block can beselected and data can bemodified by exe­cuting the Erase or Program instruction with the RP signal held at VID. When RP is returned toVIH, all the previously protected blocks are again pro­tected.
Block Unprotection. All protected blocks can be unprotected on programming equipment to allow updating of bit contents. All blocks must first be protected before theunprotection operation. Block unprotection is activated when A9,G and E are at VIDand A12, A15 at VIH. Unprotection is initiated by the edge of W falling to VIL. After a delay of 10ms, the unprotection operation will end. Unpro­tection verify is achieved by bringing G and E to VILwhileA0 is at VIL, A6and A1are at VIHandA9 remains at VID. In these conditions, reading the output data willyield 00hif the block definedbythe inputs A12-A18 has been successfully unprotect­ed. Each block must be separately verified by giv­ing its address in order to ensure that it has been unprotected.

Commands are made of address and data sequences. The in­structions requirefrom 1 to6 cycles,thefirst or first three ofwhich are always write operations used to initiate the instruction. They are followed by either further writecycles to confirm the firstcommand or execute thecommand immediately. Commandse­quencing must be followed exactly. Any invalid combination of commands will reset the device to Read Array. The increased number of cycles has been chosentoassuremaximum datasecurity. In­structions are initialised by twoinitialCodedcycles which unlock the Command Interface. In addition, for Erase,instructionconfirmation is again preced­ed by the two Coded cycles.
Status Register Bits
P/E.C. statusis indicated during executionby Data Polling on DQ7, detection of Toggle on DQ6 and DQ2, or Error on DQ5 and Erase Timer DQ3 bits. Any read attempt during Program or Erase com­mand execution will automatically output these five Status Registerbits. The P/E.C. automatically sets bits DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6 and DQ7. Other bits (DQ0, DQ1 and DQ4) are reserved for future use and should be masked. See Tables10 and11.
Data Polling Bit (DQ7). When Programming op­erations are in progress, this bit outputs the com­plement of the bit being programmed on DQ7. During Erase operation, it outputsa ’0’. After com­pletion ofthe operation, DQ7 will outputthebit last programmed or a ’1’ after erasing. Data Polling is valid and only effective during P/E.C. operation, that is after the fourth W pulse for programming or after the sixth W pulse for erase. It must be per­formed at the address beingprogrammed or at an address within the block being erased. If all the blocks selectedfor erasureare protected, DQ7 will be set to ’0’for about 100µs, and then return to the previous addressed memory data value. See Fig­ure 13for the Data Polling flowchartand Figure 12 for the Data Polling waveforms. DQ7 will also flag the Erase Suspend mode by switching from ’0’ to ’1’ at the start of the Erase Suspend. In order to
monitor DQ7 in the Erase Suspend mode an ad­dress within a block being erased must be provid­ed. For a Read Operation in Erase Suspend mode, DQ7 will output ’1’ if the read is attempted on a block being erased and thedata value onoth­er blocks. DuringProgramoperation in EraseSus­pend Mode, DQ7 will have the same behavior as in the normal program execution outside of the suspend mode.
Toggle Bit (DQ6). When Programming or Eras­ing operations are in progress, successive at­tempts to read DQ6 will output complementary data. DQ6 will togglefollowing toggling ofeither G, or E when G is low. The operation is completed when two successive reads yield the same output data. The next read will output the bit last pro­grammed ora ’1’ after erasing. The toggle bitDQ6 is valid only during P/E.C. operations, that is after the fourth W pulse for programming or after the sixth W pulse for Erase. If the blocks selected for erasure are protected, DQ6 will toggle for about 100µs and then return back to Read. DQ6 will be set to ’1’ if a Read operation is attempted on an Erase Suspend block. When erase is suspended DQ6 will toggle during programming operations in a block differentto the blockin Erase Suspend. Ei­ther E or G toggling will cause DQ6 to toggle. See Figure 14 for Toggle Bit flowchart and Figure 15 for Toggle Bit waveforms.
