SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M29F016B is a 16 Mbit (2Mb x8) non-volatile
memory that can be read, erased and reprogrammed. These operations can be performedusing a single 5V supply. On power-up the memory
defaults 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 possible to preserve
valid data while old data is erased. Blocks can be
protected in groups to prevent accidental Program
or Erase commands from modifying the memory.
Program and Erase commands are written to the
Command Interface of the memory. An on-chip
(1)
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 eraseoperation can be detected and
any error conditions identified. The command set
required to control the memory is consistent with
JEDEC standards.
Chip Enable, Output Enableand Write Enable signals control the bus operation of the memory.
They allow simple connection to most microprocessors, often without additional logic.
The memory is offered in a TSOP40 (10 x 20mm)
and SO44 packages and it is supplied with all the
bits erased (set to ’1’).
See Figure 1, Logic Diagram, and Table 1, Signal
Names, for abrief overview of the signals connected to this device.
Address Inputs (A0-A20). The Address Inputs
select the cells in the memory array to access during Bus Read operations. During Bus Write operations they control the commands sent to the
Command Interface of the internal state machine.
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). The Data Inputs/Outputs output thedatastoredattheselected
address during a Bus Read operation. During Bus
Write operations they represent the commands
sentto theCommandInterfaceoftheinternalstate
machine.
Chip Enable (E). The Chip Enable, E, activates
the memory, allowing Bus Read and Bus Writeoperations to be performed. When Chip Enable is
High, VIH, all other pins are ignored.
Output Enable (G). The Output Enable, G, controls the Bus Read operation of the memory.
Write Enable (W). The Write Enable, W,controls
the Bus Write operation of the memory’s Command Interface.
Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect(RP). The Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect pin can be usedto
apply a Hardware Reset to the memory or to temporarily unprotect all blocks that have been protected.
A Hardware Reset is achieved by holding Reset/
Block Temporary Unprotect Low, VIL, for at least
t
. After Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect
PLPX
goes High, VIH, the memory will be ready for Bus
Read and Bus Write operations after t
t
, whicheveroccurs last. See the Ready/Busy

PHEL
or
Output section, Table 14 and Figure 11, Reset/
Temporary Unprotect AC Characteristics for more
details.
Holding RP at VIDwill temporarily unprotect the
protected blocks in the memory. Program and
Erase operations on all blocks will be possible.
The transition from VIHtoVIDmustbe slower than

Ready/Busy Output (RB). The Ready/Busy pin
is an open-drain output that canbeusedto identify
when the memory array can be read. Ready/Busy
is high-impedance during Read mode, Auto Select
mode and Erase Suspend mode.

M29F016B
After a Hardware Reset, Bus Read and Bus Write
operations cannot begin until Ready/Busy becomes high-impedance. See Table 14 and Figure
11, Reset/Temporary Unprotect AC Characteristics.
During Program or Erase operations Ready/Busy
is Low, VOL. Ready/Busy will remain Low during
Read/Reset commands or Hardware Resets until
the memory is ready to enter Read mode.
The use of an open-drain output allows theReady/
Busy pinsfrom several memories to be connected
to asinglepull-up resistor. A Low will then indicate
that one, or more, of the memories is busy.
VCCSupply Voltage. The VCCSupply Voltage
supplies the power for all operations (Read, Program, Erase etc.).
The CommandInterface is disabled when the V
CC
Supply Voltage is less than the Lockout Voltage,
V
. This prevents Bus Write operations from ac-
LKO
cidentally damaging the data during power up,
power down and power surges. If the Program/
Erase Controller is programming or erasingduring
this time then the operation aborts and the memory contents being altered will be invalid.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected between
the VCCSupply Voltage pin and the VSSGround
pin to decouple the current surges from the power
supply. The PCB track widths must be sufficient to
carry the currents required during program and
erase operations, I

VSSGround. TheVSSGroundisthereference for
all voltage measurements.
BUS OPERATIONS
There are five standard bus operations that control
the device. These are Bus Read, Bus Write, Output Disable,Standby and Automatic Standby. See
Table 4, Bus Operations,for a summary. Typically
glitches of less than 5ns on Chip Enable or Write
Enable are ignored by the memory and do not affect busoperations.
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 addresson the Address
Inputs, applying a Low signal, VIL, to Chip Enable
and Output Enable and keeping Write Enable
High, VIH. The Data Inputs/Outputs will output the
value, see Figure 8, Read Mode AC Waveforms,
and Table 11, 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 desired address on the 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 are latched by the Command Interface on the rising edge of Chip Enable
or WriteEnable,whichever occursfirst.OutputEnable must remain High, VIH, during the whole Bus
Write operation. See Figures 9 and 10, Write AC
Waveforms, and Tables 12 and 13, Write AC
Characteristics, for details of the timing requirements.
Output Disable. The Data Inputs/Outputs are in
the high impedance state when Output Enable is
High, VIH.
Standby. When Chip Enable is High, VIH, the
Data Inputs/Outputs pins are placed in the highimpedance state and the Supply Current is reduced to the Standby level.
When Chip Enable is at VIHthe Supply Current is
reduced to the TTLStandby Supply Current, I
CC2
To further reduce the Supply Current to the CMOS
Standby Supply Current, I
, Chip Enableshould
CC3
be held within VCC± 0.2V. For Standby current
levels see Table 10, DC Characteristics.
During program or erase operations the memory
will continue to use the Program/Erase Supply
Current, I
, forProgramorEraseoperations un-

til the operation completes.

. 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 Protection. These bus operations are intended for use by programming equipment and are not usually used in applications.
They require VIDto be applied to some pins.
Electronic Signature. Thememoryhastwo
codes, the manufacturer code and the device
code, that can be read to identify the memory.
These codes can be read by applying the signals
listed in Table 4, Bus Operations.
Block Protection and Blocks Unprotec tion. Blocks
can beprotectedin groups against accidental Program or Erase. See Table 3, Block Addresses, for
details ofwhich blocks must be protected together
as a group. Protected blocks can be unprotected
to allow data to be changed.
There are two methods available for protecting
and unprotecting the blocks, one for use on programming equipment and the other for in-system
use. For further information refer to Application
Note AN1122, Applying Protection and Unprotection to M29 Series Flash.
COMMAND INTERFACE
All Bus Write operations to the memory are interpreted by the Command Interface. Commands
consist of one or more sequential Bus Write operations. Failureto observe a valid sequence of Bus
Write operations will result in the memory returning to Read mode. The longcommand sequences
are imposed to maximize data security.
The commands are summarized in Table 5, Commands. Refer to Table 5 in conjunction with the
text descriptions below.
Read/Reset Command. The Read/Reset command returnsthememory 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.
If the Read/Reset command is issued during a
Block Eraseoperationor following a Programming
or Eraseerrorthenthe memory will take upto 10µs
to abort. During the abort period no valid data can
be read from the memory. Issuing a Read/Reset
command during a Block Erase operation will
leave invalid data in the memory.
Auto Select Command. The Auto Select command is used to read the Manufacturer Code, the
Device Code and the Block Protection Status.
Three consecutive Bus Write operations are required to issue the Auto Select command. Once
the Auto Select command is issued the memory
remains in Auto Select mode until another command is issued.
From the Auto Select mode the Manufacturer
Code can be read using a Bus Read operation
with A0 = VILandA1 = VIL. The other address bits
may be set to either VILor VIH. The Manufacturer
Code for STMicroelectronics is 20h.
The Device Code can be read using a Bus Read
operation with A0 = VIHand A1 = VIL. The other
address bits may be set to either VILor VIH. The
Device Code for the M29F016B is ADh.
The Block Protection Status of each block can be
read using a Bus Read operation with A0 = VIL,
A1 = VIH, and A16-A20 specifying the address of
the block. The other address bits may be set to either VILor VIH. If the addressed block is protected
then 01his outputon the Data Inputs/Outputs, otherwise 00h is output.
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 fourBus Write operations,the final write operation latches theaddress and data in the internal
state machine and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
If the address falls in a protected 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 operation the memory will ignore all commands. It is not possible to issue any
command to abort or pause theoperation. Typical
program times are given in Table 6. BusRead operations during the program operation will output
the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs.
See the section on the Status Register for more
details.
After the program operation has completed the
memory will return to the Read mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Register. A Read/Reset command must beissued to reset the error condition and return to Read mode.
Note that the Program command cannotchange a
bit set at ’0’ back to ’1. One of the Erase Commands must be used to set all the bits in ablock or
in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.

Unlock Bypass Command. The Unlock Bypass
command is used in conjunction with the Unlock
Bypass Programcommandtoprogram the memory. When the access time to the device is long (as
with some EPROM programmers) considerable
time saving can be made by using these commands. Three Bus Write operations are required
to issue the Unlock Bypass command.
Once the Unlock Bypass command has been issued the memory will only accept the Unlock Bypass Program command and the Unlock Bypass
Reset command. The memory can be readas if in
Read mode.
Unlock Bypass Program Command. The Unlock
Bypass Program command can be used to program one address in memory at a time. The command requires two Bus Write operations, the final
write operation latches the address and datainthe
internal state machine and starts the Program/
Erase Controller.
The Program operation using the Unlock Bypass
Program command behaves identically to the Program operation using the Program command. A
protected block cannot be programmed; the operation cannot be abortedand theStatusRegister is
read. Errors must be reset using the Read/Reset
command, which leaves the device in Unlock Bypass Mode. See theProgram command for details
on the behavior.
Unlock Bypass Reset Command. TheUnlock
Bypass Reset command can be used to return to
Read/Reset mode from Unlock Bypass Mode.
