Description

The FM 21LD16 is a 128Kx16 nonvolatile memory that reads and writes like a standard SRAM. A ferroelectric random access memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile, which means that da ta is retained after power is removed. It provides data retention for over 10 years while eliminating the reliability concerns, functional disadvantages, and system design complexities of battery -backed SRAM (BBSRAM). Fast write timing and high write endurance make the F-RAM superior to other types of memory. In-system operation of the FM21LD16 is very similar to other RAM devices and can be used as a drop -in replacement for standard SRAM. Read and write cycles may be triggered by /CE or simply by changing the address. The F-RAM memory is nonvolatile due to its unique ferroelectric memory process. These features make the FM 21LD16 ideal for nonvolatile memory applications requiring frequent or rapid writes in the form of an SRAM. The FM21LD16 includes a l ow voltage monitor that blocks access to the memory array when V DD drops below VDD min. The memory is protected against an inadvertent access and data corruption under this condition. The device also features software - controlled write protection. The memo ry array is divided into 8 uniform blocks, each of which can be individually write protected. The device is available in a 48-ball FBGA package. Device specifications are guaranteed over industrial temperature range –40°C to +85°C.

Rev. 3.0 Oct. 2012 Page 4 of 15 Overview The FM 21LD16 is a wordwide F-RAM memory logically organized as 131,072 x 16 and accessed using an industry standard parallel interface. All data written to the part is immediately nonvolatile with no delay. The device offers pag e mode operation which provides higher speed access to addresses within a page (row). An access to a different page requires that either /CE transitions low or the upper address A(16:2) changes. Memory Operation Users access 131,072 memory locations, each with 16 data bits through a parallel interface. The F-RAM array is organized as 8 blocks each having 4096 rows. Each row has 4 column locations, which allows fast access in page mode operation. Once an initial address has been latched by the falling edge o f /CE, subsequent column locations may be accessed without the need to toggle /CE. When /CE is deasserted high, a precharge operation begins. Writes occur immediately at the end of the access with no delay. The /WE pin must be toggled for each write operation. The write data is stored in the nonvolatile memory array immediately, which is a feature unique to F-RAM called NoDelayTM writes. Read Operation A read operation begins on the falling edge of /CE. The falling edge of /CE causes the address to be latched and starts a memory read cycle if /WE is high. Data becomes available on the bus after the access time has been satisfied. Once the address has been latched and the access completed, a new access to a random location (different row) may begin while /CE is still low. The minimum cycle time for random addresses is t RC. Note that unlike SRAMs, the FM21LD16’s /CE-initiated access time is faster than the address cycle time. The FM 21LD16 will drive the data bus when /OE and at least one of the byte enabl es (/UB, /LB) is asserted low. The upper data byte is driven when /UB is low, and the lower data byte is driven when /LB is low. If /OE is asserted after the memory access time has been satisfied, the data bus will be driven with valid data. If /OE is asse rted prior to completion of the memory access, the data bus will not be driven until valid data is available. This feature minimizes supply current in the system by eliminating transients caused by invalid data being driven onto the bus. When /OE is deasse rted high, the data bus will remain in a high-Z state. Write Operation Writes occur in the FM 21LD16 in the same time interval as reads. The FM 21LD16 supports both /CE- and /WE -controlled write cycles. In both cases, the address A(16:2) is latched on the falling edge of /CE. In a /CE -controlled write, the /WE signal is asserted prior to beginning the memory cycle. That is, /WE is low when /CE falls. In this case, the device begins the memory cycle as a write. The FM 21LD16 will not drive the data bus regar dless of the state of /OE as long as /WE is low. Input data must be valid when /CE is deasserted high. In a /WE -controlled write, the memory cycle begins on the falling edge of /CE. The /WE signal falls some time later. Therefore, the memory cycle begins as a read. The data bus will be driven if /OE is low, however it will hi-Z once /WE is asserted low. The /CE - and /WE -controlled write timing cases are shown in the Electrical Specifications section. Write access to the array begins on the falling edge o f /WE after the memory cycle is initiated. The write access terminates on the rising edge of /WE or /CE, whichever comes first. A valid write operation requires the user to meet the access time specification prior to deasserting /WE or /CE. Data setup time indicates the interval during which data cannot change prior to the end of the write access ( rising edge of /WE or /CE). Unlike other truly nonvolatile memory technologies, there is no write delay with F-RAM. Since the read and write access times of the underlying memory are the same, the user experiences no delay through the bus. The entire memory operation occurs in a single bus cycle. Data polling, a technique used with EEPROMs to determine if a write is complete, is unnecessary. Page Mode Operation The F-RAM array is organized as 8 blocks each having 4096 rows. Each row has 4 column address locations. Address inputs A(1:0) define the column address to be accessed. An access can start on any column address, and other column locations may be accessed without the need to toggle the /CE pin. For fast access reads, once the first data byte is driven onto the bus, the column address inputs A(1:0) may be changed to a new value. A new data byte is then driven to the DQ pins no later than t AAP, which is less than half the initial read access time. For fast access writes, the first write pulse defines the first write access. While /CE is low, a subsequent write pulse

Rev. 3.0 Oct. 2012 Page 5 of 15 along with a new column address provides a page mode write access. Precharge Operation The p recharge operation is an internal condition in which the state of the memory is being prepared for a new access. Precharge is user -initiated by driving the /CE signal high. It must remain high for at least the minimum precharge time tPC. Precharge is als o activated by changing the upper addess A(16:2). The current row is first closed prior to accessing the new row. The device automatically detects an upper order address change which starts a precharge operation, the new address is latched, and the new r ead data is valid within the t AA address access time. Refer to the Read Cycle Timing 1 diagram on page 10. Likewise a similar sequence occurs for write cycles. Refer to the Write Cycle Timing 3 diagram on page 12. The rate at which random addresses can be issued is t RC and t WC, respectively. Software Write Protection The 128Kx16 address space is divided into 8 sectors (blocks) of 16Kx16 each. Each sector can be individually software write-protected and the settings are nonvolatile. A unique address and com mand sequence invokes the write protection mode. To modify write protection, the system host must issue six read c ommands, three write commands, and a final read command . The specific sequence of read addresses must be provided in order to access to the write protect mode. Following the read address sequence, the host must write a data byte that specifies the desired protection state of each sector. For confirmation, the system must then write the complement of the protection byte immediately following the protection byte. Any error that occurs including read addresses in the wrong order, issuing a seventh read address, or failing to complement the protection value will leave the write protection unchanged. The write protect state machine monitors all addresses, taking no action until this particular read/write sequence occurs. During the address sequence, each read will occur as a valid operation and data from the corresponding addresses will be driven onto the data bus. Any address that occurs out of se quence will cause the software protection state machine to start over. After the address sequence is completed, the next operation must be a write cycle. The data byte contains the write -protect settings. This value will not be written to the memory array , so the address is a don’t -care. Rather it will be held pending the next cycle, which must be a write of the data complement to the protection settings. If the complement is correct, the write protect settings will be adjusted. If not, the process is abor ted and the address sequence starts over. The data value written after the correct six addresses will not be entered into memory. The protection data byte consists of 8 -bits, each associated with the write protect state of a sector. The data byte must be driven to the lower 8 -bits of the data bus, DQ(7:0). Setting a bit to 1 write protects the corresponding sector; a 0 enables writes for that sector. The following table shows the write -protect sectors with the corresponding bit that controls the write-protect setting. Write Protect Sectors – 16K x16 blocks Sector 7 1FFFFh – 1C000h Sector 6 1BFFFh – 18000h Sector 5 17FFFh – 14000h Sector 4 13FFFh – 10000h Sector 3 0FFFFh – 0C000h Sector 2 0BFFFh – 08000h Sector 1 07FFFh – 04000h Sector 0 03FFFh – 00000h The write-protect read address sequence follows: 1. 12555h * 2. 1DAAAh 3. 01333h 4. 0ECCCh 5. 000FFh 6. 1FF00h 7. 1DAAAh 8. 0ECCCh 9. 0FF00h 10. 00000h * If /CE is low enteri ng the sequence, then an address of 00000h must precede 12555h. The address sequence provides a very secure way o f modifying the protection. The write -protect sequence has a 1 in 3 x 10 32 chance of randomly accessing exactly the 1 st six addresses . The odds are further reduced by requiring three more write cycles, one that requires an exact inversion of the data byte . A flow chart of the entire write protect operati on is shown in Figure 2 . The write-protect settings are non volatile. The factory default: all blocks are unprotected.
