LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

DESCRIPTION

The LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L flash memories with SmartVoltage technology are high-density, low-cost, nonvolatile, read/write storage solution for a wide range of applications. The LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L can operate at VCC = 2.7 V and VPP = 2.7 V. Their low voltage operation capability realizes longer battery life and suits for cellular phone application. Their boot, parameter and main-blocked architecture, flexible voltage and enhanced cycling capability provide for highly flexible component suitable for portable terminals and personal computers. Their enhanced suspend capabilities provide for an ideal solution for code + data storage applications. For secure code storage applications, such as networking, where code is either directly executed out of flash or downloaded to DRAM, the LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L offer two levels of protection : absolute protection with VPP at GND, selective hardware boot block locking. These alternatives give designers ultimate control of their code security needs.

BLOCK ORGANIZATION

This product features an asymmetrically-blocked architecture providing system memory integration. Each erase block can be erased independently of the others up to 100 000 times. For the address locations of the blocks, see the memory map in

Fig. 1.

Boot Blocks : The two boot blocks are intended to replace a dedicated boot PROM in a microprocessor or microcontroller-based system. The boot blocks of 4 k words (4 096 words) feature hardware controllable write-protection to protect the crucial microprocessor boot code from accidental modification. The protection of the boot blocks is controlled using a combination of the VPP, RP# and WP# pins.

Parameter Blocks : The boot block architecture includes parameter blocks to facilitate storage of frequently update small parameters that would normally require an EEPROM. By using software techniques, the byte-rewrite functionality of EEPROMs can be emulated. Each boot block component contains six parameter blocks of 4 k words (4 096 words) each. The parameter blocks are not write-protectable.

Main Blocks : The reminder is divided into main blocks for data or code storage. Each 8 M-bit device contains fifteen 32 k words (32 768 words) blocks.

1 INTRODUCTION

This datasheet contains LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L specifications. Section 1 provides a flash memory overview. Sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 describe the memory organization and functionality. Section 6 covers electrical specifications. LH28F800BG-L/ BGH-L flash memories documentation also includes ordering information which is referenced in Section 7.

1.1New Features

Key enhancements of LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L SmartVoltage flash memories are :

SmartVoltage Technology

Enhanced Suspend Capabilities

Boot Block Architecture

Note following important differences :

VPPLK has been lowered to 1.5 V to support 2.7 V, 3.3 V and 5 V block erase and word write operations. Designs that switch VPP off during read operations should make sure that the VPP voltage transitions to GND.

To take advantage of SmartVoltage technology, allow VPP connection to 2.7 V, 3.3 V or 5 V.

1.2Product Overview

The LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L are high-performance 8 M-bit SmartVoltage flash memories organized as 512 k-word of 16 bits. The 512 k-word of data is arranged in two 4 k-word boot blocks, six 4 k-word parameter blocks and fifteen 32 k-word main blocks which are individually erasable in-system. The memory map is shown in Fig. 1.

SmartVoltage technology provides a choice of VCC and VPP combinations, as shown in Table 1, to meet system performance and power expectations. 2.7 V VCC consumes approximately one-fifth the power of 5 V VCC and 3.3 V VCC consumes approximately one-fourth the power of 5 V VCC.

But, 5 V VCC provides the highest read performance. VPP at 2.7 V, 3.3 V and 5 V eliminates the need for a separate 12 V converter, while VPP = 12 V maximizes block erase and word write performance. In addition to flexible erase and program voltages, the dedicated VPP pin gives complete data protection when VPP VPPLK.

Internal VCC and VPP detection circuitry automatically configures the device for optimized read and write operations.

A Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the interface between the system processor and internal operation of the device. A valid command sequence written to the CUI initiates device automation. An internal Write State Machine (WSM) automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for block erase and word write operations.

A block erase operation erases one of the device’s 32 k-word blocks typically within 0.39 second (5 V VCC, 12 V VPP), 4 k-word blocks typically within 0.25 second (5 V VCC, 12 V VPP) independent of other blocks. Each block can be independently erased 100 000 times. Block erase suspend mode allows system software to suspend block erase to read data from, or write data to any other block.

Writing memory data is performed in word increments of the device’s 32 k-word blocks typically within 8.4 µs (5 V VCC, 12 V VPP), 4 k- word blocks typically within 17 µs (5 V VCC, 12 V VPP). Word write suspend mode enables the

- 5 -

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

system to read data from, or write to any other flash memory array location.

The boot block is located at either the top or the bottom of the address map in order to accommodate different micro-processor protect for boot code location. The hardware-lockable boot block provides complete code security for the kernel code required for system initialization. Locking and unlocking of the boot block is controlled by WP# and/or RP# (see Section 4.9 for details). Block erase or word write for boot block must not be carried out by WP# to low and RP# to VIH.

The status register indicates when the WSM’s block erase or word write operation is finished.

The RY/BY# output gives an additional indicator of WSM activity by providing both a hardware signal of status (versus software polling) and status masking (interrupt masking for background block erase, for example). Status polling using RY/BY# minimizes both CPU overhead and system power consumption. When low, RY/BY# indicates that the WSM is performing a block erase or word write. RY/BY#-high indicates that the WSM is ready for a new command, block erase is suspended (and word write is inactive), word write is suspended, or the device is in deep power-down mode.

The access time is 85 ns (tAVQV) at the VCC supply voltage range of 4.75 to 5.25 V over the temperature range, 0 to +70°C (LH28F800BG-L)/

–40 to +85°C (LH28F800BGH-L). At 4.5 to 5.5 V VCC, the access time is 90 ns or 120 ns. At lower VCC voltage, the access time is 100 ns or 130 ns (3.0 to 3.6 V) and 120 ns or 150 ns (2.7 to 3.6 V).

The Automatic Power Saving (APS) feature substantially reduces active current when the device is in static mode (addresses not switching). In APS mode, the typical ICCR current is 1 mA at 5 V VCC and 3 mA at 2.7 V and 3.3 V VCC.

When CE# and RP# pins are at VCC, the ICC CMOS standby mode is enabled. When the RP# pin is at GND, deep power-down mode is enabled which minimizes power consumption and provides write protection during reset. A reset time (tPHQV) is required from RP# switching high until outputs are valid. Likewise, the device has a wake time (tPHEL) from RP#-high until writes to the CUI are recognized. With RP# at GND, the WSM is reset and the status register is cleared.

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

2 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L SmartVoltage flash memories include an on-chip WSM to manage block erase and word write functions. It allows for : 100% TTL-level control inputs, fixed power supplies during block erasure and word write, and minimal processor overhead with RAM-like interface timings.

After initial device power-up or return from deep power-down mode (see Table 2 "Bus Operations"), the device defaults to read array mode. Manipulation of external memory control pins allow array read, standby and output disable operations.

Status register and identifier codes can be accessed through the CUI independent of the VPP voltage. High voltage on VPP enables successful block erasure and word writing. All functions associated with altering memory contents—block erase, word write, status and identifier codes—are accessed via the CUI and verified through the status register.

Commands are written using standard microprocessor write timings. The CUI contents serve as input to the WSM, which controls the block erase and word write. The internal algorithms are regulated by the WSM, including pulse repetition, internal verification and margining of data. Addresses and data are internally latched during write cycles. Writing the appropriate command outputs array data, accesses the identifier codes or outputs status register data.

Interface software that initiates and polls progress of block erase and word write can be stored in any block. This code is copied to and executed from system RAM during flash memory updates. After successful completion, reads are again possible via the Read Array command. Block erase suspend allows system software to suspend a block erase to read/write data from/to blocks other than that which is suspended. Word write suspend allows system

software to suspend a word write to read data from any other flash memory array location.

2.1Data Protection

Depending on the application, the system designer may choose to make the VPP power supply switchable (available only when memory block erases or word writes are required) or hardwired to VPPH1/2/3. The device accommodates either design practice and encourages optimization of the processor-memory interface.

When VPP VPPLK, memory contents cannot be altered. The CUI, with two-step block erase or word write command sequences, provides protection from unwanted operations even when high voltage is applied to VPP. All write functions are disabled when VCC is below the write lockout voltage VLKO or when RP# is at VIL. The device’s boot blocks locking capability for WP# provides additional protection from inadvertent code or data alteration by block erase and word write operations.

3 BUS OPERATION

The local CPU reads and writes flash memory insystem. All bus cycles to or from the flash memory conform to standard microprocessor bus cycles.

3.1Read

Information can be read from any block, identifier codes or status register independent of the VPP voltage. RP# can be at either VIH or VHH.

The first task is to write the appropriate read mode command (Read Array, Read Identifier Codes or Read Status Register) to the CUI. Upon initial device power-up or after exit from deep powerdown mode, the device automatically resets to read array mode. Five control pins dictate the data flow in and out of the component : CE#, OE#, WE#, RP# and WP#. CE# and OE# must be driven active to obtain data at the outputs. CE# is the

- 8 -

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

device selection control, and when active enables the selected memory device. OE# is the data output (DQ0-DQ15) control and when active drives the selected memory data onto the I/O bus. WE# must be at VIH and RP# must be at VIH or VHH. Fig. 11 illustrates read cycle.

3.2Output Disable

With OE# at a logic-high level (VIH), the device outputs are disabled. Output pins (DQ0-DQ15) are placed in a high-impedance state.

3.3Standby

CE# at a logic-high level (VIH) places the device in standby mode which substantially reduces device power consumption. DQ0-DQ15 outputs are placed in a high-impedance state independent of OE#. If deselected during block erase or word write, the device continues functioning, and consuming active power until the operation completes.

3.4Deep Power-Down

RP# at VIL initiates the deep power-down mode.

In read modes, RP#-low deselects the memory, places output drivers in a high-impedance state and turns off all internal circuits. RP# must be held low for a minimum of 100 ns. Time tPHQV is required after return from power-down until initial memory access outputs are valid. After this wake-up interval, normal operation is restored. The CUI is reset to read array mode and status register is set to 80H.

During block erase or word write modes, RP#-low will abort the operation. RY/BY# remains low until the reset operation is complete. Memory contents being altered are no longer valid; the data may be partially erased or written. Time tPHWL is required after RP# goes to logic-high (VIH) before another command can be written.

As with any automated device, it is important to

assert RP# during system reset. When the system comes out of reset, it expects to read from the flash memory. Automated flash memories provide status information when accessed during block erase or word write modes. If a CPU reset occurs with no flash memory reset, proper CPU initialization may not occur because the flash memory may be providing status information instead of array data. SHARP’s flash memories allow proper CPU initialization following a system reset through the use of the RP# input. In this application, RP# is controlled by the same RESET# signal that resets the system CPU.

3.5Read Identifier Codes Operation

The read identifier codes operation outputs the manufacture code and device code (see Fig. 2). Using the manufacture and device codes, the system CPU can automatically match the device with its proper algorithms.

3.6Write

Writing commands to the CUI enable reading of device data and identifier codes. They also control inspection and clearing of the status register. When

VCC = VCC1/2/3/4 and VPP = VPPH1/2/3, the CUI

additionally controls block erasure and word write.

The Block Erase command requires appropriate command data and an address within the block to be erased. The Word Write command requires the command and address of the location to be written.

- 9 -

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

The CUI does not occupy an addressable memory location. It is written when WE# and CE# are active. The address and data needed to execute a command are latched on the rising edge of WE# or CE# (whichever goes high first). Standard microprocessor write timings are used. Fig. 12 and Fig. 13 illustrate WE# and CE# controlled write operations.

4 COMMAND DEFINITIONS

When the VPP voltage VPPLK, read operations from the status register, identifier codes, or blocks are enabled. Placing VPPH1/2/3 on VPP enables successful block erase and word write operations.

Device operations are selected by writing specific commands into the CUI. Table 3 defines these commands.

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

4.1Read Array Command

Upon initial device power-up and after exit from deep power-down mode, the device defaults to read array mode. This operation is also initiated by writing the Read Array command. The device remains enabled for reads until another command is written. Once the internal WSM has started a block erase or word write, the device will not recognize the Read Array command until the WSM completes its operation unless the WSM is suspended via an Erase Suspend or Word Write Suspend command. The Read Array command functions independently of the VPP voltage and RP# can be VIH or VHH.

4.2Read Identifier Codes Command

The identifier code operation is initiated by writing the Read Identifier Codes command. Following the command write, read cycles from addresses shown in Fig. 2 retrieve the manufacture and device codes (see Table 4 for identifier code values). To terminate the operation, write another valid command. Like the Read Array command, the Read Identifier Codes command functions independently of the VPP voltage and RP# can be VIH or VHH. Following the Read Identifier Codes command, the following information can be read :

4.3Read Status Register Command

The status register may be read to determine when a block erase or word write is complete and whether the operation completed successfully. It may be read at any time by writing the Read Status Register command. After writing this command, all subsequent read operations output data from the status register until another valid command is written. The status register contents are latched on

the falling edge of OE# or CE#, whichever occurs. OE# or CE# must toggle to VIH before further reads to update the status register latch. The Read Status Register command functions independently of the VPP voltage. RP# can be VIH or VHH.

4.4Clear Status Register Command

Status register bits SR.5, SR.4, SR.3 or SR.1 are set to "1"s by the WSM and can only be reset by the Clear Status Register command. These bits indicate various failure conditions (see Table 6). By allowing system software to reset these bits, several operations (such as cumulatively erasing multiple blocks or writing several words in sequence) may be performed. The status register may be polled to determine if an error occurred during the sequence.

To clear the status register, the Clear Status Register command (50H) is written. It functions independently of the applied VPP voltage. RP# can be VIH or VHH. This command is not functional during block erase or word write suspend modes.

4.5Block Erase Command

Erase is executed one block at a time and initiated by a two-cycle command. A block erase setup is first written, followed by a block erase confirm. This command sequence requires appropriate sequencing and an address within the block to be erased (erase changes all block data to FFFFH). Block preconditioning, erase, and verify are handled internally by the WSM (invisible to the system). After the two-cycle block erase sequence is written, the device automatically outputs status register data when read (see Fig. 3). The CPU can detect block erase completion by analyzing the output data of the RY/BY# pin or status register bit SR.7.

When the block erase is complete, status register bit SR.5 should be checked. If a block erase error is detected, the status register should be cleared before system software attempts corrective actions.

- 12 -

LH28F800BG-L/BGH-L (FOR TSOP, CSP)

The CUI remains in read status register mode until a new command is issued.

This two-step command sequence of set-up followed by execution ensures that block contents are not accidentally erased. An invalid Block Erase command sequence will result in both status register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to "1". Also, reliable block erasure can only occur when VCC = VCC1/2/3/4 and VPP = VPPH1/2/3. In the absence of this high voltage, block contents are protected against erasure. If block erase is attempted while VPP VPPLK, SR.3 and SR.5 will be set to "1". Successful block erase for boot blocks requires that the corresponding if set, that WP# = VIH or RP# = VHH. If block erase is attempted to boot block when the corresponding WP# = VIL or RP# = VIH, SR.1 and SR.5 will be set to "1". Block erase operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious results and should not be attempted.

4.6Word Write Command

Word write is executed by a two-cycle command sequence. Word write setup (standard 40H or alternate 10H) is written, followed by a second write that specifies the address and data (latched on the rising edge of WE#). The WSM then takes over, controlling the word write and write verify algorithms internally. After the word write sequence is written, the device automatically outputs status register data when read (see Fig. 4). The CPU can detect the completion of the word write event by analyzing the RY/BY# pin or status register bit SR.7.

When word write is complete, status register bit SR.4 should be checked. If word write error is detected, the status register should be cleared. The internal WSM verify only detects errors for "1"s that do not successfully write to "0"s. The CUI remains in read status register mode until it receives another command.

Reliable word writes can only occur when VCC = VCC1/2/3/4 and VPP = VPPH1/2/3. In the absence of this high voltage, memory contents are protected against word writes. If word write is attempted while VPP VPPLK, status register bits SR.3 and SR.4 will be set to "1". Successful word write for boot blocks requires that the corresponding if set, that WP# = VIH or RP# = VHH. If word write is attempted to boot block when the corresponding WP# = VIL or RP# = VIH, SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to "1". Word write operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious results and should not be attempted.

4.7Block Erase Suspend Command

The Block Erase Suspend command allows block erase interruption to read or word write data in another block of memory. Once the block erase process starts, writing the Block Erase Suspend command requests that the WSM suspend the block erase sequence at a predetermined point in the algorithm. The device outputs status register data when read after the Block Erase Suspend command is written. Polling status register bits SR.7 and SR.6 can determine when the block erase operation has been suspended (both will be set to "1"). RY/BY# will also transition to VOH. Specification tWHRH2 defines the block erase suspend latency.

At this point, a Read Array command can be written to read data from blocks other than that which is suspended. A Word Write command sequence can also be issued during erase suspend to program data in other blocks. Using the Word Write Suspend command (see Section 4.8), a word write operation can also be suspended. During a word write operation with block erase suspended, status register bit SR.7 will return to "0" and the RY/BY# output will transition to VOL. However, SR.6 will remain "1" to indicate block erase suspend status.
