28F400BL-T/B, 28F004BL-T/B Intel’s 4-Mbit Low Power Flash Memory Family is an extension of the Boot Block Architecture which includes block-selective erasure, automated write and erase operations and standard microprocessor interface. The 4-Mbit Low Power Flash Memory Family enhances the Boot Block Architecture by adding more density and blocks, x8/x16 input/output control, very low power, very high speed, an industry standard ROM compatible pinout and surface mount packaging. The 4-Mbit low power flash family opens a new capability for 3V battery- operated portable systems and is an easy upgrade to Intel’s 2-Mbit Low Power Boot Block Flash Memory Family. The Intel 28F400BL-T/B are 16-bit wide low power flash memory offerings. These high density flash memories provide user selectable bus operation for either 8-bit or 16-bit applications. The 28F400BL-T and 28F400BL-B are 4,194,304-bit non-volatile memories organized as either 524,288 bytes or 262,144 words of information. They are offered in 44-Lead plastic SOP and 56-Lead TSOP packages. The x8/x16 pinout conforms to the industry standard ROM/EPROM pinout. The Intel 28F004BL-T/B are 8-bit wide low power flash memories with 4,194,304 bits organized as 524,288 bytes of information. They are offered in a 40-Lead TSOP package, which is ideal for space-constrained portable systems. These devices use an integrated Command User Interface (CUI) and Write State Machine (WSM) for simplified word/byte write and block erasure. The 28F400BL-T/28F004BL-T provide block locations compatible with Intel’s Low Voltage MCS-186 family, i386 TM, i486 TM microprocessors. The 28F400BL-B/28F004BL-B provide compatibility with Intel’s 80960KX and 80960SX families as well as other low voltage embedded microproces- sors. The boot block includes a data protection feature to protect the boot code in critical applications. With a maximum access time of 150 ns, these 4-Mbit low power flash devices are very high performance memories at 3.3V which interface to a wide range of low voltage microprocessors and microcontrollers. A deep power- down mode lowers the total V CC power consumption to 0.66 mW which is critical in handheld battery powered systems such as Handy Cellular Phones. For very high speed applications using a 5V supply, refer to the Intel 28F400BX-T/B, 28F004BX-T/B 4-Mbit Boot Block Flash Memory family datasheet. Manufactured on Intel’s 0.8 micron ETOX III process, the 4-Mbit flash memory family provides world class quality, reliability and cost-effectiveness at the 4 Mbit density level.

1.1 Designing for Upgrade to

Today’s high volume boot block products are up- gradeable to Intel’s SmartVoltage boot block prod- ucts that provide program and erase operation at 5V or 12V V PP and read operation at 3V or 5V V CC. Intel’s SmartVoltage boot block products provide the following enhancements to the boot block products described in this datasheet: 1. DU pin is replaced by WP Ý to provide a means to lock and unlock the boot block with logic signals. 2. 5V Program/Erase operation uses proven pro- gram and erase techniques with 5V g10% ap- plied to V PP. 3. Enhanced circuits optimize performance at 3.3V VCC. Refer to the 2, 4 or 8Mbit SmartVoltage Boot Block Flash Memory datasheets for complete specifica- tions. When you design with 12V V PP boot block products you should provide the capability in your board de- sign to upgrade to SmartVoltage products. Follow these guidelines to ensure compatibility: 1. Connect DU (WP Ý on SmartVoltage products) to a control signal or to V CC or GND. 2. If adding a switch on V PP for write protection, switch to GND for complete write protection. 3. Allow for connecting 5V to V PP and disconnect 12V from the V PP line, if desired.

1.2 Main Features

The 28F400BL/28F004BL boot block flash memory family is a very high performance 4-Mbit (4,194,304 bit) memory family organized as either 256 KWords (262,144 words) of 16 bits each or 512 Kbytes (524,288 bytes) of 8 bits each. Seven Separately Erasable Blocks including a Hardware-Lockable boot block (16,384 Bytes), two parameter blocks (8,192 Bytes each) and four main blocks (1 block of 98,304 Bytes and 3 blocks of 131,072 Bytes) are included on the 4-Mbit family. An erase operation erases one of the main blocks in typically 3.4 seconds and the boot or parameter blocks in typically 2.0 seconds, independent of the remaining blocks. Each block can be independently erased and programmed 10,000 times. The Boot Block is located at either the top (-T) or the bottom (-B) of the address map in order to ac- commodate different microprocessor protocols for boot code location. The hardware Iockable boot block provides the most secure code storage. The boot block is intended to store the kernel code re- quired for booting-up a system. When the RP Ý pin is between 11.4V and 12.6V the boot block is unlocked and program and erase operations can be per- formed. When the RP Ý pin is at or below 4.1V the boot block is locked and program and erase opera- tions to the boot block are ignored. The 28F400BL products are available in the ROM/EPROM compatible pinout and housed in the 44-Lead PSOP (Plastic Small Outline) package and the 56-Lead TSOP (Thin Small Outline, 1.2mm thick) package as shown in Figures 3 and 4, The 28F004BL products are available in the 40-Lead TSOP (1.2mm thick) package as shown in Figure 5. The Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the interface between the microprocessor or microcon- troller and the internal operation of the 28F400BL and 28F004BL flash memory products. Program and Erase Automation allow program and erase operations to be executed using a two- write command sequence to the CUI. The internal Write State Machine (WSM) automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for program and erase operations, including verifications, there- by unburdening the microprocessor or microcontrol- ler. Writing of memory data is performed in word or byte increments for the 28F400BL family and in byte increments for the 28F004BL family typically within 11 ms.

28F400BL-T/B, 28F004BL-T/B The Status Register (SR) indicates the status of the WSM and whether the WSM successfully completed the desired program or erase operation. Maximum Access Time of 150 ns (t ACC) is achieved over the commercial temperature range (0 §Ct o a70§C), V CC supply voltage range (3.0V to 3.6V, 4.5V to 5.5V) and 50 pF output load. Ipp Program current is 40 mA for x16 operation and 30 mA for x8 operation. I PP Erase current is 30 mA maximum. V PP erase and programming voltage is 11.4V to 12.6V (V PP e 12V g5%) un- der all operating conditions. Typical I CC Active Current of 15 mA is achieved for the x16 products and the x8 products. The 4-Mbit flash family is also designed with an Au- tomatic Power Savings (APS) feature to minimize system battery current drain and allow for very low power designs. Once the device is accessed to read the array data, APS mode will immediately put the memory in static mode of operation where I CC active current is typically 0.8 mA until the next read is initia- ted. When the CE Ý and RPÝ pins are at V CC and the BYTEÝ pin (28F400BX-L-only) is at either V CC or GND the CMOS Standby mode is enabled where ICC is typically 45 mA. A Deep Power-Down Mode is enabled when the PWD pin is at ground minimizing power consumption and providing write protection during power-up con- ditions. I CC current during deep power-down mode is 0.20 mA typical. An initial maximum access time or Reset Time of 600 ns is required from RP Ý switching until outputs are valid. Equivalently, the device has a maximum wake-up time of 1 ms until writes to the Command User Interface are recog- nized. When RP Ý is at ground the WSM is reset, the Status Register is cleared and the entire device is protected from being written to. This feature pre- vents data corruption and protects the code stored in the device during system reset. The system Reset pin can be tied to RP Ý to reset the memory to nor- mal read mode upon activation of the Reset pin. When the CPU enters reset mode, it expects to read the contents of a memory location. Furthermore, with on-chip program/erase automation in the 4-Mbit family and the RP Ý functionality for data pro- tection, when the CPU is reset and even if a program or erase command is issued, the device will not rec- ognize any operation until RP Ý returns to its normal state. For the 2SF400BL, Byte-wide or Word-wide In- put/Output Control is possible by controlling the BYTEÝ pin. When the BYTE Ý pin is at a logic low the device is in the byte-wide mode (x8) and data is read and written through DQ [0:7]. During the byte- wide mode, DQ [8:14] are tri-stated and DQ15/A becomes the lowest order address pin. When the BYTE Ý pin is at a logic high the device is in the word-wide mode (x16) and data is read and written through DQ [0:15].

1.3 Applications

The 4-Mbit low power boot block flash memory fami- ly combines high density, very low power, high per- formance, cost-effective flash memories with block- ing and hardware protection capabilities. Its flexibility and versatility will reduce costs throughout the prod- uct life cycle. Flash memory is ideal for Just-In-Time production flow, reducing system inventory and costs, and eliminating component handling during the production phase. During the product life cycle, when code updates or feature enhancements be- come necessary, flash memory will reduce the up- date costs by allowing either a user-performed code change via floppy disk or a remote code change via a serial link. The 4-Mbit flash family provides full function, blocked flash memories suitable for a wide range of applications. These applications include Extended PC BIOS and ROM-able applications storage, Handy Digital Cellular Phone program and data storage and various other low power em- bedded applications where both program and data storage are required. Portable systems such as Notebook/Palmtop com- puters, are ideal applications for the 4-Mbit low pow- er flash products. Portable and handheld personal computer applications are becoming more complex with the addition of power management software to take advantage of the latest microprocessor tech- nology, the availability of ROM-based application software, pen tablet code for electronic hand writing, and diagnostic code. Figure 1 shows an example of a 28F400BL-T application. This increase in software sophistication augments the probability that a code update will be required after the Notebook is shipped. The 4-Mbit flash products provide an inexpensive update solution for the notebook and handheld personal computers while extending their product lifetime. Furthermore, the 4-Mbit flash products’ deep power-down mode provides added flexibility for these battery-operated portable designs which require operation at very low power levels.

Writing 90H to the CUI places the device into Intelligent Identifier read mode. A read of location 00000H out- puts the manufacturer’s identification code, 89H, and location 00001H outputs the device code; 78H for 28F004BL-T, 79H for 28F004BL-B.

4.4 Write Operations

Commands are written to the CUI using standard mi- croprocessor write timings. The CUI serves as the interface between the microprocessor and the inter- nal chip operation. The CUI can decipher Read Ar- ray, Read Intelligent Identifier, Read Status Register, Clear Status Register, Erase and Program com- mands. In the event of a read command, the CUI simply points the read path at either the array, the Intelligent Identifier, or the status register depending on the specific read command given. For a program or erase cycle, the CUI informs the write state ma- chine that a write or erase has been requested. Dur- ing a program cycle, the Write State Machine will control the program sequences and the CUI will only respond to status reads. During an erase cycle, the CUI will respond to status reads and erase suspend. After the Write State Machine has completed its task, it will allow the CUI to respond to its full com- mand set. The CUI will stay in the current command state until the microprocessor issues another com- mand. The CUI will successfully initiate an erase or write operation only when V PP is within its voltage range. Depending upon the application, the system design- er may choose to make the V PP power supply switchable, available only when memory updates are desired. The system designer can also choose to ‘‘hard-wire’’ V PP to 12V. The 4-Mbit flash memory family is designed to accommodate either design practice. It is recommended that RP Ý be tied to logi- cal Reset for data protection during unstable CPU reset function as described in the ‘‘Product Family Overview’’ section.

4.4.1 BOOT BLOCK WRITE OPERATIONS

In the case of Boot Block modifications (write and erase), RP Ý is set to V HH e 12V typically, in addi- tion to V PP at high voltage. However, if RP Ý is not at V HH when a program or erase operation of the boot block is attempted, the corresponding status register bit (Bit 4 for Program and Bit 5 for Erase, refer to Table 5 for Status Regis- ter Definitions) is set to indicate the failure to com- plete the operation.

4.4.2 COMMAND USER INTERFACE (CUI)

The Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the interface to the microprocessor. The CUI points the read/write path to the appropriate circuit block as described in the previous section. After the WSM has completed its task, it will set the WSM Status bit to a ‘‘1’’, which will also allow the CUI to respond to its full command set. Note that after the WSM has returned control to the CUI, the CUI will remain in its current state.

28F400BL-T/B, 28F004BL-T/B Program Setup (40H or 10H) This command simply sets the CUI into a state such that the next write will load the address and data registers. Either 40H or 10H can be used for Pro- gram Setup. Both commands are included to ac- commodate efforts to achieve an industry standard command code set. Program The second write after the program setup command, will latch addresses and data. Also, the CUI initiates the WSM to begin execution of the program algo- rithm. While the WSM finishes the algorithm, the de- vice will output Status Register contents. Note that the WSM cannot be suspended during program- ming. Erase Setup (20H) Prepares the CUI for the Erase Confirm command. No other action is taken. If the next command is not an Erase Confirm command then the CUI will set both the Program Status and Erase Status bits of the Status Register to a ‘‘1’’, place the device into the Read Status Register state, and wait for another command. Erase Confirm (D0H) If the previous command was an Erase Setup com- mand, then the CUI will enable the WSM to erase, at the same time closing the address and data latches, and respond only to the Read Status Register and Erase Suspend commands. While the WSM is exe- cuting, the device will output Status Register data when OE Ý is toggled low. Status Register data can only be updated by toggling either OE Ý or CE Ý low. Erase Suspend (B0H) This command only has meaning while the WSM is executing an Erase operation, and therefore will only be responded to during an erase operation. After this command has been executed, the CUI will initi- ate the WSM to suspend Erase operations, and then return to responding to only Read Status Register or to the Erase Resume commands. Once the WSM has reached the Suspend state, it will set an output into the CUI which allows the CUI to respond to the Read Array, Read Status Register, and Erase Re- sume commands. In this mode, the CUI will not re- spond to any other commands. The WSM will also set the WSM Status bit to a ‘‘1’’. The WSM will con- tinue to run, idling in the SUSPEND state, regardless of the state of alI input control pins, with the exclu- sion of RP Ý.R P Ý low will immediately shut down the WSM and the remainder of the chip. Erase Resume (D0H) This command will cause the CUI to clear the Sus- pend state and set the WSM Status bit to a ‘‘0’’, but only if an Erase Suspend command was previously issued. Erase Resume will not have any effect in all other conditions.

4.4.3 STATUS REGISTER

The 4 Mbit flash family contains a status register which may be read to determine when a program or erase operation is complete, and whether that oper- ation completed successfully. The status register may be read at any time by writing the Read Status command to the CUI. After writing this command, all subsequent Read operations output data from the status register until another command is written to the CUI. A Read Array command must be written to the CUl to return to the Read Array mode. The status register bits are output on DQ [0:7] whether the device is in the byte-wide (x8) or word- wide (x16) mode for the 28F400BL. In the word-wide mode the upper byte, DQ [8:15] is set to 00H during a Read Status command. In the byte-wide mode, DO[8:14] is tri-stated and DQ 15/Ab1 retains the low order address function. It should be noted that the contents of the status register are latched on the falling edge of OE Ý or CEÝ whichever occurs last in the read cycle. This prevents possible bus errors which might occur if the contents of the status register change while reading the status register. CE Ý or OE Ý must be toggled with each subsequent status read, or the completion of a program or erase operation will not be evident. The Status Register is the interface between the mi- croprocessor and the Write State Machine (WSM). When the WSM is active, this register will indicate the status of the WSM, and will also hold the bits indicating whether or not the WSM was successful in performing the desired operation. The WSM sets status bits ‘‘Three’’ through ‘‘Seven’’ and clears bits ‘‘Six’’ and ‘‘Seven’’, but cannot clear status bits ‘‘Three’’ through ‘‘Five’’. These bits can only be cleared by the controlling CPU through the use of the Clear Status Register command.

4.4.4 PROGRAM MODE

  1. program the desired bits of the addressed memo-
  2. verify that the desired bits are sufficiently pro-

within a byte or word being changed to a ‘‘0’’.

28F400BL-T/B, 28F004BL-T/B Similar to erasure, the status register indicates whether programming is complete. While the pro- gram sequence is executing, bit 7 of the status regis- ter is a ‘‘0’’. The status register can be polled by toggling either CE Ý or OE Ý to determine when the program sequence is complete. Only the Read Status Register command is valid while program- ming is active. When programming is complete, the status bits, which indicate whether the program operation was successful, should be checked. If the programming operation was unsuccessful, Bit 4 of the status regis- ter is set to a ‘‘1’’ to indicate a Program Failure. If Bit 3 is set then V PP was not within acceptable limits, and the WSM will not execute the programming se- quence. The status register should be cleared before at- tempting the next operation. Any CUI instruction can follow after programming is completed; however, it must be recognized that reads from the memory, status register, or Intelligent Identifier cannot be ac- complished until the CUI is given the appropriate command. A Read Array command must first be giv- en before memory contents can be read. Figure 12 shows a system software flowchart for de- vice byte programming operation. Figure 13 shows a similar flowchart for device word programming oper- ation (28F400BL-only).

4.4.5 ERASE MODE

Erasure of a single block is initiated by writing the Erase Setup and Erase Confirm commands to the CUI, along with the addresses, A [12:17] for the 28F400BL or A [12:18] for the 28F004BL, identifying the block to be erased. These addresses are latched internally when the Erase Confirm command is is- sued. Block erasure results in all bits within the block being set to ‘‘1’’. The WSM will execute a sequence of internally timed events to: 1. program all bits within the block 2. verify that all bits within the block are sufficiently programmed 3. erase all bits within the block and 4. verify that all bits within the block are sufficiently erased While the erase sequence is executing, Bit 7 of the status register is a ‘‘0’’. When the status register indicates that erasure is complete, the status bits, which indicate whether the erase operation was successful, should be checked. If the erasure operation was unsuccessful, Bit 5 of the status register is set to a ‘‘1’’ to indicate an Erase Failure. If V PP was not within acceptable limits after the Erase Confirm command is issued, the WSM will not execute an erase sequence; instead, Bit 5 of the status register is set to a ‘‘1’’ to indicate an Erase Failure, and Bit 3 is set to a ‘‘1’’ to identify that V PP supply voltage was not within acceptable limits. The status register should be cleared before at- tempting the next operation. Any CUI instruction can follow after erasure is completed; however, it must be recognized that reads from the memory array, status register, or Intelligent Identifier can not be ac- complished until the CUI is given the appropriate command. A Read Array command must first be giv- en before memory contents can be read. Figure 13 shows a system software flowchart for Block Erase operation.

4.4.5.1 Suspending and Resuming Erase

Since an erase operation typically requires 2 sec- onds to 5 seconds to complete, an Erase Suspend command is provided. This allows erase-sequence interruption in order to read data from another block of the memory. Once the erase sequence is started, writing the Erase Suspend command to the CUI re- quests that the Write State Machine (WSM) pause the erase sequence at a predetermined point in the erase algorithm. The status register must be read to determine when the erase operation has been sus- pended. At this point, a Read Array command can be written to the CUI in order to read data from blocks other than that which is being suspended. The only other valid command at this time is the Erase Resume command or Read Status Register operation. Figure 14 shows a system software flowchart detail- ing the operation. During Erase Suspend mode, the chip can go into a pseudo-standby mode by taking CE Ý to V IH and the active current is now a maximum of 6 mA. If the chip is enabled while in this mode by taking CE Ý to V IL, the Erase Resume command can be issued to re- sume the erase operation.

28F400BL-T/B, 28F004BL-T/B Upon completion of reads from any block other than the block being erased, the Erase Resume com- mand must be issued. When the Erase Resume command is given, the WSM will continue with the erase sequence and complete erasing the block. As with the end of erase, the status register must be read, cleared, and the next instruction issued in or- der to continue.

4.4.6 EXTENDED CYCLING

Intel has designed extended cycling capability into its ETOX III flash memory technology. The 4-Mbit low voltage flash memory family is designed for 10,000 program/erase cycles on each of the seven blocks. The combination of low electric fields, clean oxide processing and minimized oxide area per memory cell subjected to the tunneling electric field, results in very high cycling capability.

4.5.4 RESET/DEEP POWER-DOWN

The 4-Mbit flash family supports a typical I CC of 0.2 mA in deep power-down mode. One of the target markets for these devices is in portable equipment where the power consumption of the machine is of prime importance. The 4-Mbit flash family has a RP Ý pin which places the device in the deep power- down mode. When RP Ý is at a logic-low (GND g0.2V), all circuits are turned off and the device typ- ically draws 0.2 mAo fV CC current. During read modes, the RP Ý pin going low dese- lects the memory and places the output drivers in a high impedance state. Recovery from the deep pow- er-down state, requires a maximum of 600 ns to ac- cess valid data (t PHQV). During erase or program modes, RP Ý low will abort either erase or program operation. The contents of the memory are no longer valid as the data has been corrupted by the RP Ý function. As in the read mode above, all internal circuitry is turned off to achieve the 0.2 mA current level. RP Ý transitions to V IL or turning power off to the device will clear the status register. This use of RP Ý during system reset is important with automated write/erase devices. When the sys- tem comes out of reset it expects to read from the flash memory. Automated flash memories provide status information when accessed during write/ erase modes. If a CPU reset occurs with no flash memory reset, proper CPU initialization would not occur because the flash memory would be providing the status information instead of array data. Intel’s Flash Memories allow proper CPU initialization fol- lowing a system reset through the use of the RP Ý input. In this application RP Ý is controlled by the same RESET Ý signal that resets the system CPU.

4.6 Power-up Operation

The 4-Mbit flash memory family is designed to offer protection against accidental block erasure or pro- gramming during power transitions. Upon power-up the 4-Mbit flash memory family is indifferent as to which power supply, V PP or V CC, powers-up first. Power supply sequencing is not required. The 4-Mbit flash memory family ensures the CUI is reset to the read mode on power-up. In addition, on power-up the user must either drop CEÝ low or present a new address to ensure valid data at the outputs. A system designer must guard against spurious writes for V CC voltages above V LKO when V PP is active. Since both WE Ý and CE Ý must be low for a command write, driving either signal to V IH will inhibit writes to the device. The CUl architecture provides an added level of protection since alteration of mem- ory contents can only occur after successful com- pletion of the two-step command sequences. Finally the device is disabled until RP Ý is brought to V IH, regardless of the state of its control inputs. This fea- ture provides yet another level of memory protec- tion.

4.7 Power Supply Decoupling

Flash memory’s power switching characteristics re- quire careful device decoupling methods. System designers are interested in 3 supply current issues: # Standby current levels (I CCS) # Active current levels (I CCR) # Transient peaks produced by falling and rising edges of CE Transient current magnitudes depend on the device outputs’ capacitive and inductive loading. Two-line control and proper decoupling capacitor selection will suppress these transient voltage peaks. Each flash device should have a 0.1 mF ceramic capacitor connected between each V CC and GND, and be- tween its V PP and GND. These high frequency, low- inherent inductance capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the package leads. 4.7.1 V PP TRACE ON PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS Writing to flash memories while they reside in the target system, requires special consideration of the V PP power supply trace by the printed circuit board designer. The V PP pin supplies the flash memory cell’s current for programming and erasing. One should use similar trace widths and layout consider- ations given to the V CC power supply trace. Ade- quate V PP supply traces and decoupling will de- crease spikes and overshoots.

4.7.2 V CC,V PP AND RP Ý TRANSITIONS

The CUI latches commands as issued by system software and is not altered by V PP or CE Ý tran- sitions or WSM actions. Its state upon power-up, af- ter exit from deep power-down mode or after V CC transitions below V LKO (Lockout voltage), is Read Array mode. After any word/byte write or block erase operation is complete and even after V PP transitions down to VPPL, the CUI must be reset to Read Array mode via the Read Array command when accesses to the flash memory are desired.

Chip-Enable Controlled Writes: Write operations are driven by the valid combination of CE Ý and WE Ý in systems where CEÝ defines the write pulse-width (within a longer WE Ý timing waveform), all set-up, hold and inactive WE Ý times should be measured relative to the CE Ý waveform. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Refer to AC Characteristics for WE Ý-Controlled Write operations. 9. Read timing characteristics during write and erase operations are the same as during read-only operations. Refer to AC Characteristics during Read Mode.
