| GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Am29LV017B is a 16 Mbit, 3.0 Volt-only Flash memory organized as 2,097,152 bytes. The device is offered in 48-ball FBGA and 40-pin TSOP packages. The byte-wide (x8) data appears on DQ7–DQ0. All read, program, and erase operations are accomplished using only a single power supply. The device can also be programmed in standard EPROM programmers. DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS ■ Single power supply operation — Full voltage range: 2.7 to 3.6 volt read and write operations for battery-powered applications — Regulated voltage range: 3.0 to 3.6 volt read and write operations and for compatibility with high performance 3.3 volt microprocessors ■ Manufactured on 0.35 µm process technology ■ High performance — Full voltage range: access times as fast as 90 ns — Regulated voltage range: access times as fast as 80 ns ■ Ultra low power consumption (typical values at 5 MHz) — 200 nA Automatic Sleep mode current — 200 nA standby mode current — 9 mA read current — 15 mA program/erase current ■ Flexible sector architecture — Thirty-two 64 Kbyte sectors — Supports full chip erase — Sector Protection features: A hardware method of locking a sector to prevent any program or erase operations within that sector Sectors can be locked in-system or via programming equipment Temporary Sector Unprotect feature allows code changes in previously locked sectors ■ Unlock Bypass Program Command — Reduces overall programming time when issuing multiple program command sequences ■ Embedded Algorithms — Embedded Erase algorithm automatically preprograms and erases the entire chip or any combination of designated sectors — Embedded Program algorithm automatically writes and verifies data at specified addresses ■ Mini-mum 1,000,000 write cycle guarantee per sector ■ Package option — 48-ball FBGA — 40-pin TSOP ■ CFI (Common Flash Interface) compliant — Provides device-specific information to the system, allowing host software to easily reconfigure for different Flash devices ■ Compatibility with JEDEC standards — Pinout and software compatible with single power supply Flash — Superior inadvertent write protection ■ Data# Polling and toggle bits — Provides a software method of detecting program or erase operation completion ■ Ready/Busy# pin (RY/BY#) — Provides a hardware method of detecting program or erase cycle completion ■ Erase Suspend/Erase Resume — Suspends an erase operation to read data from, or program data to, a sector that is not being erased, then resumes the erase operation ■ Hardware reset pin (RESET#) — Hardware method to reset the device to reading array data |
