Intel StrataFlash™ Memory Flash  
Technology  
Capitalizing on two-bit-per-cell technology, Intel StrataFlash™ memory products provide 2X the bits in 1X the  
space. Offered in 64-Mbit (8-Mbyte) and 32-Mbit (4-Mbyte) densities, Intel StrataFlash memory devices are  
the first to bring reliable, two-bit-per-cell storage technology to the flash market.  
Intel StrataFlash memory benefits include: more density in less space, lowest cost-per-bit NOR devices,  
support for code and data storage, and easy migration to future devices.  
Using the same NOR-based ETOX™ technology as Intel’s one-bit-per-cell products, Intel StrataFlash  
memory devices take advantage of 400 million units of manufacturing experience since 1988. As a result,  
Intel StrataFlash components are ideal for code or data applications where high density and low cost are  
required. Examples include networking, telecommunications, audio recording, and digital imaging.  
By applying FlashFile™ memory family pinouts, Intel StrataFlash memory components allow easy design  
migrations from existing 28F016SA/SV, 28F032SA, and Word-Wide FlashFile memory devices (28F160S5  
and 28F320S5).  
Intel StrataFlash memory components deliver a new generation of forward-compatible software support. By  
using the Common Flash Interface (CFI) and the Scaleable Command Set (SCS), customers can take  
advantage of density upgrades and optimized write capabilities of future Intel StrataFlash memory devices.  
Manufactured on Intel’s 0.4 micron ETOX™ V process technology, Intel StrataFlash memory provides the  
highest levels of quality and reliability.

INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT  
Individual block locking uses a combination of bits,  
1.0 PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
block lock-bits and a master lock-bit, to lock and  
unlock blocks. Block lock-bits gate block erase  
and program operations while the master lock-bit  
gates block lock-bit modification. Three lock-bit  
configuration operations set and clear lock-bits  
(Set Block Lock-Bit, Set Master Lock-Bit, and  
Clear Block Lock-Bits commands).  
The Intel StrataFlash™ memory family contains  
high-density memories organized as 8 Mbytes or  
4 Mwords (64-Mbit) and 4 Mbytes or 2 Mwords  
(32-Mbit). These devices can be accessed as 8- or  
16-bit words. The 64-Mbit device is organized as  
sixty-four 128-Kbyte (131,072 bytes) erase blocks  
while the 32-Mbits device contains thirty-two 128-  
Kbyte erase blocks. Blocks are selectively and  
individually lockable and unlockable in-system.  
See the memory map in Figure 5.  
The status register indicates when the WSM’s  
block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration  
operation is finished.  
The STS (STATUS) 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  
indication using STS minimizes both CPU  
overhead and system power consumption. When  
configured in level mode (default mode), it acts as  
a RY/BY# pin. When low, STS indicates that the  
WSM is performing a block erase, program, or  
lock-bit configuration. STS-high indicates that the  
WSM is ready for a new command, block erase is  
suspended (and programming is inactive), or the  
device is in reset/power-down mode. Additionally,  
the configuration command allows the STS pin to  
be configured to pulse on completion of  
programming and/or block erases.  
A Common Flash Interface (CFI) permits software  
algorithms to be used for entire families of  
devices. This allows device-independent, JEDEC  
ID-independent, and forward- and backward-  
compatible software support for the specified flash  
device families. Flash vendors can standardize  
their existing interfaces for long-term compatibility.  
Scaleable Command Set (SCS) allows a single,  
simple software driver in all host systems to work  
with all SCS-compliant flash memory devices,  
independent of system-level packaging (e.g.,  
memory card, SIMM, or direct-to-board place-  
ment). Additionally, SCS provides the highest  
system/device data transfer rates and minimizes  
device and system-level implementation costs.  
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, program, and  
lock-bit configuration operations.  
Three CE pins are used to enable and disable the  
device. A unique CE logic design (see Table 2,  
Chip Enable Truth Table) reduces decoder logic  
typically required for multi-chip designs. External  
logic is not required when designing a single chip,  
a dual chip, or a 4-chip miniature card or SIMM  
module.  
The BYTE# pin allows either x8 or x16 read/writes  
to the device. BYTE# at logic low selects 8-bit  
mode; address A0 selects between the low byte  
and high byte. BYTE# at logic high enables 16-bit  
operation; address A1 becomes the lowest order  
address and address A0 is not used (don’t care). A  
device block diagram is shown in Figure 1.  
A block erase operation erases one of the device’s  
128-Kbyte blocks typically within one second—  
independent of other blocks. Each block can be  
independently erased 10,000 times. Block erase  
suspend mode allows system software to suspend  
block erase to read or program data from any  
other block.  
When the device is disabled (see Table 2, Chip  
Enable Truth Table) and the RP# pin is at VCC, the  
standby mode is enabled. When the RP# pin is at  
GND, a further power-down mode is enabled  
which minimizes power consumption and provides  
Each device incorporates  
a Write Buffer of  
32 bytes (16 words) to allow optimum  
programming performance. By using the Write  
Buffer, data is programmed in buffer increments.  
This feature can improve system program  
performance by up to 20 times over non Write  
Buffer writes.

recognized. With RP# at GND, the WSM is reset  
and the status register is cleared.  
available in 56-lead SSOP (Shrink Small Outline  
Package) and µBGA* package (micro Ball Grid  
Array). The 32-Mbit is available in 56-lead TSOP  
(Thin Small Outline Package), 56-lead SSOP, and  
56-bump µBGA packages. Figures 2, 3, and 4

Type  
A0  
INPUT BYTE-SELECT ADDRESS: Selects between high and low byte when the device  
is in x8 mode. This address is latched during a x8 program cycle. Not used in  
x16 mode (i.e., the A0 input buffer is turned off when BYTE# is high).  
A1–A22  
INPUT ADDRESS INPUTS: Inputs for addresses during read and program operations.  
Addresses are internally latched during a program cycle.  
32-Mbit: A0–A21  
64-Mbit: A0–A22  
DQ0–DQ7  
INPUT/ LOW-BYTE DATA BUS: Inputs data during buffer writes and programming, and  
OUTPUT inputs commands during Command User Interface (CUI) writes. Outputs array,  
query, identifier, or status data in the appropriate read mode. Floated when the  
chip is de-selected or the outputs are disabled. Outputs DQ6–DQ0 are also  
floated when the Write State Machine (WSM) is busy. Check SR.7 (Status  
Register bit 7) to determine WSM status.  
DQ8–DQ15  
INPUT/ HIGH-BYTE DATA BUS: Inputs data during x16 buffer writes and programming  
OUTPUT operations. Outputs array, query, or identifier data in the appropriate read mode;  
not used for Status Register reads. Floated when the chip is de-selected, the  
outputs are disabled, or the WSM is busy.  
CE0,  
CE1,  
CE2  
INPUT CHIP ENABLES: Activates the device’s control logic, input buffers, decoders,  
and sense amplifiers. When the device is de-selected (see Table 2, Chip Enable  
Truth Table), power reduces to standby levels.  
All timing specifications are the same for these three signals. Device selection  
occurs with the first edge of CE0, CE1, or CE2 that enables the device. Device  
deselection occurs with the first edge of CE0, CE1, or CE2 that disables the  
device (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table).  
RP#  
INPUT RESET/ POWER-DOWN: Resets internal automation and puts the device in  
power-down mode. RP#-high enables normal operation. Exit from reset sets the  
device to read array mode. When driven low, RP# inhibits write operations which  
provides data protection during power transitions.  
RP# at VHH enables master lock-bit setting and block lock-bits configuration  
when the master lock-bit is set. RP# = VHH overrides block lock-bits thereby  
enabling block erase and programming operations to locked memory blocks. Do  
not permanently connect RP# to VHH  
.
OE#  
WE#  
INPUT OUTPUT ENABLE: Activates the device’s outputs through the data buffers  
during a read cycle. OE# is active low.  
INPUT WRITE ENABLE: Controls writes to the Command User Interface, the Write  
Buffer, and array blocks. WE# is active low. Addresses and data are latched on  
the rising edge of the WE# pulse.  
STS  
OPEN  
STATUS: Indicates the status of the internal state machine. When configured in  
DRAIN level mode (default mode), it acts as a RY/BY# pin. When configured in one of  
OUTPUT its pulse modes, it can pulse to indicate program and/or erase completion. For  
alternate configurations of the STATUS pin, see the Configurations command.  
Tie STS to VCCQ with a pull-up resistor.

input to the WSM, which controls the block erase,

practice and encourages optimization of the  
processor-memory interface.  
When VPEN VPENLK, memory contents cannot be  
altered. The CUI’s two-step block erase, byte/word  
program, and lock-bit configuration command  
sequences provide protection from unwanted  
operations even when VPENH is applied to VPEN. All  
program functions are disabled when VCC is below  
the write lockout voltage VLKO or when RP# is VIL.  
The device’s block locking capability provides  
additional protection from inadvertent code or data  
alteration by gating erase and program operations.  
Interface software that initiates and polls progress  
of block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration  
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 or  
program data from/to any other block.

power consumption. DQ0–DQ15 outputs are placed  
in a high-impedance state independent of OE#. If  
deselected during block erase, program, or lock-bit  
configuration, the WSM continues functioning, and  
consuming active power until the operation  
completes.  
3.4  
Reset/Power-Down  
RP# at VIL initiates the reset/power-down mode.  
In read modes, RP#-low deselects the memory,  
places output drivers in a high-impedance state,  
and turns off numerous internal circuits. RP# must  
be held low for a minimum of tPLPH. Time tPHQV is  
required after return from reset mode 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.  
NOTE:

Memory Design Guide for typical CE configurations.

During block erase, program, or lock-bit  
configuration modes, RP#-low will abort the  
operation. In default mode, STS transitions low and  
remains low for a maximum time of tPLPH + tPHRH  
until the reset operation is complete. Memory  
contents being altered are no longer valid; the data  
may be partially corrupted after a program or

.
Upon initial device power-up or after exit from  
reset/power-down mode, the device automatically  
resets to read array mode. Otherwise, write the  
appropriate read mode command (Read Array,  
Read Query, Read Identifier Codes, or Read Status  
Register) to the CUI. Six control pins dictate the  
data flow in and out of the component: CE0, CE1,  
CE2, OE#, WE#, and RP#. The device must be  
enabled (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table),  
and OE# must be driven active to obtain data at the  
outputs. CE0, CE1, and CE2 are the device  
selection controls and, when enabled (see Table 2,  
Chip Enable Truth Table), select the memory  
device. OE# is the data output (DQ0–DQ15) control  
and, when active, drives the selected memory data  
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,  
program, or lock-bit configuration modes. If a CPU  
reset occurs with no flash memory reset, proper  
initialization may not occur because the flash  
memory may be providing status information  
instead of array data. Intel’s flash memories allow  
proper 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.

4.2.1 QUERY STRUCTURE OUTPUT  
4.1  
Read Array Command  
The Query “database,” described later, allows  
system software to gain critical information for  
controlling the flash component. This section  
describes the device’s CFI-compliant interface that  
allows the host system to access Query data.  
Upon initial device power-up and after exit from  
reset/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, program, or lock-bit configuration, the  
device will not recognize the Read Array command  
until the WSM completes its operation unless the  
WSM is suspended via an Erase Suspend  
command. The Read Array command functions  
independently of the VPEN voltage and RP# can be  
Query data are always presented on the lowest-  
order data outputs DQ0–DQ7 only. The Query table  
device starting address is a 10h word address.  
The first two bytes of the Query structure, “Q” and  
”R” in ASCII, appear on the low byte at word  
addresses 10h and 11h. This CFI-compliant device  
outputs 00H data on upper bytes. Thus, the device  
outputs ASCII “Q” in the low byte DQ0–DQ7 and  
V
IH or VHH  
.
00h in the high byte DQ8–DQ15  
.
4.2  
Read Query Mode Command  
Since the device is x8/x16 capable, the x8 data is  
still presented in word-relative (16-bit) addresses.  
However, the “fill data” (00h) is not the same as  
driven by the upper bytes in the x16 mode. As in  
x16 mode, the byte address (A0 or A1 depending on  
pinout) is ignored for Query output so that the “odd  
byte address” (A0 or A1 high) repeats the “even byte  
address” data (A0 or A1 low). Therefore, in x8 mode  
using byte addressing, the device will output the  
sequence “Q,” “Q,” “R,” “R,” “Y,” “Y,” and so on,  
beginning at byte-relative address 20h (which is  
equivalent to word offset 10h in x16 mode).  
This section defines the data structure or  
“database” returned by the SCS (Scaleable  
Command Set) Query command. System software  
should parse this structure to gain critical  
information to enable programming, block erases,  
and otherwise control the flash component. The  
SCS Query is part of an overall specification for  
multiple command set and control interface  
descriptions called Common Flash Interface, or  
CFI. The Query can only be accessed when the  
WSM is off or the device is suspended.  
In Query addresses where two or more bytes of  
information are located, the least significant data  
byte is presented on the lower address, and the  
most significant data byte is presented on the  
higher address.

INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT  
4.4  
Read Status Register  
Command  
4.6  
Block 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 an block erase confirm.  
This command sequence requires an appropriate  
address within the block to be erased (erase  
changes all block data to FFH). 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 Figure 9). The CPU can detect  
block erase completion by analyzing the output of  
the STS pin or status register bit SR.7. Toggle OE#,  
CE0, CE1, or CE2 to update the status register.  
The status register may be read to determine when  
a block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration 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  
the first edge of CE0, CE1, or CE2 that enables the  
device (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table). OE#  
must toggle to VIH or the device must be disabled  
(see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table) before  
further reads to update the status register latch.  
The Read Status Register command functions  
independently of the VPEN voltage. RP# can be VIH  
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.  
The CUI remains in read status register mode until  
a new command is issued.  
or VHH  
.
During a program, block erase, set lock-bit, or clear  
lock-bit command sequence, only SR.7 is valid until  
the Write State Machine completes or suspends the  
operation. Device I/O pins DQ0–DQ6 and DQ8–  
DQ15 are placed in a high-impedance state. When  
the operation completes or suspends (check Status  
Register bit 7), all contents of the Status Register  
are valid when read.  
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 is valid and VPEN = VPENH. If block erase is  
attempted while VPEN VPENLK, SR.3 and SR.5 will  
be set to “1.” Successful block erase requires that  
the corresponding block lock-bit be cleared or, if  
set, that RP# = VHH. If block erase is attempted  
when the corresponding block lock-bit is set and  
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.  
4.5  
Clear Status Register  
Command  
Status register bits SR.5, SR.4, SR.3, and 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 16).  
By allowing system software to reset these bits,  
several operations (such as cumulatively erasing or  
locking multiple blocks or writing several bytes in  
sequence) may be performed. The status register  
may be polled to determine if an error occurred  
during the sequence.  
4.7  
Block Erase Suspend  
Command  
The Block Erase Suspend command allows  
block-erase interruption to read or program 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 bit SR.7  
then SR.6 can determine when the block erase  
operation has been suspended (both will be set to  
“1”). In default mode, STS will also transition to  
To clear the status register, the Clear Status  
Register command (50H) is written. It functions  
independently of the applied VPEN voltage. RP# can  
be VIH or VHH. The Clear Status Register Command  
is only valid when the WSM is off or the device is  
suspended.

ADVANCE INFORMATION  
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT  
E
VOH. Specification tWHRH defines the block erase  
suspend latency.  
Internally, this device programs many flash cells in  
parallel. Because of this parallel programming,  
maximum programming performance and lower  
power are obtained by aligning the start address at  
the beginning of  
(i.e., A4–A0 of the start address = 0).  
At this point, a Read Array command can be written  
to read data from blocks other than that which is  
suspended. A program command sequence can  
also be issued during erase suspend to program  
data in other blocks. During a program operation  
with block erase suspended, status register bit  
SR.7 will return to “0” and the STS output (in default  
a
write buffer boundary  
After the final buffer data is given, a Write Confirm  
command is issued. This initiates the WSM (Write  
State Machine) to begin copying the buffer data to  
the flash array. If a command other than Write  
Confirm is written to the device, an “Invalid  
Command/Sequence” error will be generated and  
Status Register bits SR.5 and SR.4 will be set to a  
“1.” For additional buffer writes, issue another Write  
to Buffer setup command and check XSR.7.  
mode) will transition to VOL  
.
The only other valid commands while block erase is  
suspended are Read Query, Read Status Register,  
Clear Status Register, Configure, and Block Erase  
Resume. After a Block Erase Resume command is  
written to the flash memory, the WSM will continue  
the block erase process. Status register bits SR.6  
and SR.7 will automatically clear and STS (in  
default mode) will return to VOL. After the Erase  
Resume command is written, the device  
automatically outputs status register data when  
read (see Figure 10). VPEN must remain at VPENH  
(the same VPEN level used for block erase) while  
block erase is suspended. RP# must also remain at  
VIH or VHH (the same RP# level used for block  
erase). Block erase cannot resume until program  
operations initiated during block erase suspend  
have completed.  
If an error occurs while writing, the device will stop  
writing, and Status Register bit SR.4 will be set to a  
“1” to indicate a program failure. The internal WSM  
verify only detects errors for “1”s that do not  
successfully program to “0”s. If a program error is  
detected, the status register should be cleared. Any  
time SR.4 and/or SR.5 is set (e.g., a media failure  
occurs during a program or an erase), the device  
will not accept any more Write to Buffer commands.  
Additionally, if the user attempts to program past an  
erase block boundary with  
a Write to Buffer  
command, the device will abort the Write to Buffer  
operation. This will generate an "Invalid Command/  
Sequence" error and Status Register bits SR.5 and  
SR.4 will be set to a “1.”  
4.8  
Write to Buffer Command  
Reliable buffered writes can only occur when  
To program the flash device, a Write to Buffer  
command sequence is initiated. A variable number  
of bytes, up to the buffer size, can be loaded into  
the buffer and written to the flash device. First, the  
Write to Buffer setup command is issued along with  
the Block Address (see Figure 7, Write to Buffer  
Flowchart). At this point, the eXtended Status  
Register (XSR, see Table 17) information is loaded  
and XSR.7 reverts to "buffer available" status. If  
XSR.7 = 0, the write buffer is not available. To retry,  
continue monitoring XSR.7 by issuing the Write to  
Buffer setup command with the Block Address until  
XSR.7 = 1. When XSR.7 transitions to a “1,” the  
buffer is ready for loading.  
V
PEN = VPENH. If a buffered write is attempted while  
VPEN VPENLK, Status Register bits SR.4 and SR.3  
will be set to “1.” Buffered write attempts with  
invalid VCC and VPEN voltages produce spurious  
results and should not be attempted. Finally,  
successful programming requires that the  
corresponding Block Lock-Bit be reset or, if set, that  
RP# = VHH. If a buffered write is attempted when  
the corresponding Block Lock-Bit is set and RP# =  
VIH, SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1.” Buffered write  
operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce spurious  
results and should not be attempted.  
Now a word/byte count is given to the part with the  
Block Address. On the next write, a device start  
address is given along with the write buffer data.  
Subsequent writes provide additional device  
addresses and data, depending on the count. All  
subsequent addresses must lie within the start  
address plus the count.  
4.9  
Byte/Word Program Commands  
Byte/Word program is executed by a two-cycle  
command sequence. Byte/Word program 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  
28

then takes over, controlling the program and  
program verify algorithms internally. After the  
program sequence is written, the device  
automatically outputs status register data when  
read (see Figure 8). The CPU can detect the  
completion of the program event by analyzing the  
STS pin or status register bit SR.7.  
An invalid configuration code will result in both  
status register bits SR.4 and SR.5 being set to “1.”  
When configured in one of the pulse modes, the  
STS pin pulses low with a typical pulse width of  
250 ns.  
4.11 Set Block and Master Lock-Bit  
Commands  
When program is complete, status register bit SR.4  
should be checked. If a program error is detected,  
the status register should be cleared. The internal  
WSM verify only detects errors for “1”s that do not  
successfully program to “0”s. The CUI remains in  
read status register mode until it receives another  
command.  
A flexible block locking and unlocking scheme is  
enabled via a combination of block lock-bits and a  
master lock-bit. The block lock-bits gate program  
and erase operations while the master lock-bit  
gates block-lock bit modification. With the master  
lock-bit not set, individual block lock-bits can be set  
using the Set Block Lock-Bit command. The Set  
Master Lock-Bit command, in conjunction with  
RP# = VHH, sets the master lock-bit. After the  
master lock-bit is set, subsequent setting of block  
lock-bits requires both the Set Block Lock-Bit  
command and VHH on the RP# pin. These  
commands are invalid while the WSM is running or  
Reliable byte/word programs can only occur when  
VCC and VPEN are valid. If a byte/word program is  
attempted while VPEN VPENLK, status register bits  
SR.4 and SR.3 will be set to “1.” Successful  
byte/word programs require that the corresponding  
block lock-bit be cleared or, if set, that RP# = VHH  
.
If a byte/word program is attempted when the  
corresponding block lock-bit is set and RP# = VIH,  
SR.1 and SR.4 will be set to “1.” Byte/Word  
program operations with VIH < RP# < VHH produce  
spurious results and should not be attempted.  
the device is suspended. See Table 14 for  
summary of hardware and software write protection  
options.  
a
Set block lock-bit and master lock-bit commands  
are executed by a two-cycle sequence. The set  
block or master lock-bit setup along with  
appropriate block or device address is written  
followed by either the set block lock-bit confirm (and  
an address within the block to be locked) or the set  
master lock-bit confirm (and any device address).  
The WSM then controls the set lock-bit algorithm.  
After the sequence is written, the device  
automatically outputs status register data when  
read (see Figure 11). The CPU can detect the  
completion of the set lock-bit event by analyzing the  
STS pin output or status register bit SR.7.  
4.10 Configuration Command  
The Status (STS) pin can be configured to different  
states using the Configuration command. Once the  
STS pin has been configured, it remains in that  
configuration until another configuration command  
is issued or RP# is asserted low. Initially, the STS  
pin defaults to RY/BY# operation where RY/BY#  
low indicates that the state machine is busy.  
RY/BY# high indicates that the state machine is  
ready for a new operation or suspended. Table 15  
displays the possible STS configurations.  
When the set lock-bit operation is complete, status  
register bit SR.4 should be checked. If an error is  
detected, the status register should be cleared. The  
CUI will remain in read status register mode until a  
new command is issued.  
To reconfigure the Status (STS) pin to other modes,  
the Configuration command is given followed by the  
desired configuration code. The three alternate  
configurations are all pulse mode for use as a  
system interrupt as described below. For these  
configurations, bit  
interrupt pulse, and bit  
0
controls Erase Complete  
controls Program  
This two-step sequence of set-up followed by  
execution ensures that lock-bits are not accidentally  
set. An invalid Set Block or Master Lock-Bit  
command will result in status register bits SR.4 and  
SR.5 being set to “1.” Also, reliable operations  
occur only when VCC and VPEN are valid. With VPEN  
VPENLK, lock-bit contents are protected against  
alteration.  
1
Complete interrupt pulse. Supplying the 00h  
configuration code with the Configuration command  
resets the STS pin to the default RY/BY# level  
mode. The possible configurations and their usage  
are described in Table 15. The Configuration  
command may only be given when the device is not  
busy or suspended. Check SR.7 for device status.

5.0 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS 5.3 Power Supply Decoupling  
5.1 Three-Line Output Control  
E
Flash memory power switching characteristics  
require careful device decoupling. System  
designers are interested in three supply current  
issues; standby current levels, active current levels  
and transient peaks produced by falling and rising  
edges of CE0, CE1, CE2, and OE#. Transient  
current magnitudes depend on the device outputs’  
capacitive and inductive loading. Two-line control  
and proper decoupling capacitor selection will  
suppress transient voltage peaks. Since Intel  
StrataFlash memory devices draw their power from  
three VCC pins (these devices do not include a VPP  
pin), it is recommended that systems without  
separate power and ground planes attach a 0.1 µF  
ceramic capacitor between each of the device’s  
three VCC pins (this includes VCCQ) and ground.  
These high-frequency, low-inductance capacitors  
should be placed as close as possible to package  
leads on each StrataFlash device. Each device  
should have a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor connected  
between its VCC and GND. These high-frequency,  
low inductance capacitors should be placed as  
close as possible to package leads. Additionally, for  
every eight devices, a 4.7 µF electrolytic capacitor  
should be placed between VCC and GND at the  
array’s power supply connection. The bulk capacitor  
will overcome voltage slumps caused by PC board  
trace inductance.  
The device will often be used in large memory  
arrays. Intel provides five control inputs (CE0, CE1,  
CE2, OE#, and RP#) to accommodate multiple  
memory connections. This control provides for:  
a. Lowest possible memory power dissipation.  
b. Complete assurance that data bus  
contention will not occur.  
To use these control inputs efficiently, an address  
decoder should enable the device (see Table 2,  
Chip Enable Truth Table) while OE# should be  
connected to all memory devices and the system’s  
READ# control line. This assures that only selected  
memory devices have active outputs while de-  
selected memory devices are in standby mode.  
RP# should be connected to the system  
POWERGOOD signal to prevent unintended writes  
during system power transitions. POWERGOOD  
should also toggle during system reset.

STS and Block Erase, Program,  
and Lock-Bit Configuration  
Polling  
5.4  
V
, V  
, RP# Transitions  
STS is an open drain output that should be  
connected to VCCQ by a pull-up resistor to provide a  
hardware method of detecting block erase,  
program, and lock-bit configuration completion. In  
default mode, it transitions low after block erase,  
program, or lock-bit configuration commands and  
returns to High Z when the WSM has finished  
executing the internal algorithm. For alternate  
configurations of the STS pin, see the Configuration  
command.  
CC PEN  
Block erase, program, and lock-bit configuration are  
not guaranteed if VPEN or VCC falls outside of the  
specified operating ranges, or RP# VIH or VHH. If  
RP# transitions to VIL during block erase, program,  
or lock-bit configuration, STS (in default mode) will  
remain low for a maximum time of tPLPH + tPHRH  
until the reset operation is complete. Then, the  
operation will abort and the device will enter  
reset/power-down mode. The aborted operation  
may leave data partially corrupted after  
programming, or partially altered after an erase or  
lock-bit configuration. Therefore, block erase and  
lock-bit configuration commands must be repeated  
after normal operation is restored. Device power-off  
or RP# = VIL clears the status register.  
STS can be connected to an interrupt input of the  
system CPU or controller. It is active at all times.  
STS, in default mode, is also High Z when the  
device is in block erase suspend (with programming  
inactive) or in reset/power-down mode.

ADVANCE INFORMATION  
E
INTEL StrataFlash™ MEMORY TECHNOLOGY, 32 AND 64 MBIT  
The CUI latches commands issued by system  
software and is not altered by VPEN, CE0, CE1, or  
CE2 transitions, or WSM actions. Its state is read  
array mode upon power-up, after exit from  
reset/power-down mode, or after VCC transitions  
below VLKO. VCC must be kept at or above VPEN  
during VCC transitions.  
A system designer must guard against spurious  
writes for VCC voltages above VLKO when VPEN is  
active. Since WE# must be low and the device  
enabled (see Table 2, Chip Enable Truth Table) for  
a command write, driving WE# to VIH or disabling  
the device will inhibit writes. The CUI’s two-step  
command sequence architecture provides added  
protection against data alteration.  
After block erase, program, or lock-bit configuration,  
even after VPEN transitions down to VPENLK, the CUI  
must be placed in read array mode via the Read  
Array command if subsequent access to the  
memory array is desired. VPEN must be kept at or  
below VCC during VPEN transitions.  
Keeping VPEN below VPENLK prevents inadvertent  
data alteration. In-system block lock and unlock  
capability protects the device against inadvertent  
programming. The device is disabled while RP# =  
V
IL regardless of its control inputs.  
5.5  
Power-Up/Down Protection  
5.6  
Power Dissipation  
The device is designed to offer protection against  
accidental block erasure, programming, or lock-bit  
configuration during power transitions. Internal  
circuitry resets the CUI to read array mode at  
power-up.  
When designing portable systems, designers must  
consider battery power consumption not only during  
device operation, but also for data retention during  
system idle time. Flash memory’s nonvolatility  
increases usable battery life because data is  
retained when system power is removed.

WE# pulse width requirement decreases to tWP - 10 ns.  
9. Write pulse width high (tWPH) is defined from CEX or WE# going high (whichever goes high first) to CEX or WE# going low
