1. Initial issue  
Oct. 27th 2000 Advanced  
Information  
1. Renamed GND input (pin # 6) on behalf of SE (pin # 6)  
- The SE input controls the access of the spare area. When SE is high,  
the spare area is not accessible for reading or programming. SE is rec  
ommended to be coupled to GND or Vcc and should not be toggled  
during reading or programming.  
Dec. 5th 2000  
=> Connect this input pin to GND or set to static low state unless the  
sequential read mode excluding spare area is used.  
2. Updated operation for tRST timing  
- If reset command(FFh) is written at Ready state, the device goes into  
Busy for maximum 5us.

FLASH MEMORY  
64M x 8 Bit NAND Flash Memory  
FEATURES  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
Voltage Supply : 2.7V~3.6V  
The K9F1208U0M is a 64M(67,108,864)x8bit NAND Flash  
Memory with a spare 2,048K(2,097,152)x8bit. Its NAND cell  
provides the most cost-effective solution for the solid state  
mass storage market. A program operation can be performed in  
typical 200µs on the 528-byte page and an erase operation can  
be performed in typical 2ms on a 16K-byte block. Data in the  
page can be read out at 50ns cycle time per byte. The I/O pins  
serve as the ports for address and data input/output as well as  
command inputs. The on-chip write controller automates all pro-  
gram and erase functions including pulse repetition, where  
required, and internal verification and margining of data. Even  
the write-intensive systems can take advantage of the  
K9F1208U0M’s extended reliability of 100K program/erase  
cycles by providing ECC(Error Correcting Code) with real time  
mapping-out algorithm. The K9F1208U0M-YCB0,PCB0/  
YIB0,PIB0 is an optimum solution for large nonvolatile storage  
applications such as solid state file storage and other portable  
applications requiring non-volatility.

K9F1208U0M  
FLASH MEMORY  
Product Introduction  
The K9F1208U0M is a 528Mbit(553,648,218 bit) memory organized as 131,072 rows(pages) by 528 columns. Spare sixteen columns  
are located from column address of 512 to 527. A 528-byte data register is connected to memory cell arrays accommodating data  
transfer between the I/O buffers and memory during page read and page program operations. The memory array is made up of 16  
cells that are serially connected to form a NAND structure. Each of the 16 cells resides in a different page. A block consists of two  
NAND structured strings. A NAND structure consists of 16 cells. Total 135168 NAND cells reside in a block. The array organization is  
shown in Figure 2. The program and read operations are executed on a page basis, while the erase operation is executed on a block  
basis. The memory array consists of 4,096 separately erasable 16K-byte blocks. It indicates that the bit by bit erase operation is pro-  
hibited on the K9F1208U0M.  
The K9F1208U0M has addresses multiplexed into 8 I/O's. This scheme dramatically reduces pin counts and allows systems  
upgrades to future densities by maintaining consistency in system board design. Command, address and data are all written through  
I/O's by bringing WE to low while CE is low. Data is latched on the rising edge of WE. Command Latch Enable(CLE) and Address  
Latch Enable(ALE) are used to multiplex command and address respectively, via the I/O pins. The 64M byte physical space requires  
26 addresses, thereby requiring four cycles for byte-level addressing: column address, low row address and high row address, in that  
order. Page Read and Page Program need the same four address cycles following the required command input. In Block Erase oper-  
ation, however, only the three row address cycles are used. Device operations are selected by writing specific commands into the  
command register. Table 1 defines the specific commands of the K9F1208U0M.  
The device provides simultaneous program/erase capability up to four pages/blocks. By dividing the memory array into four 128Mbit  
separate planes, simultaneous multi-plane operation dramatically increases program/erase performance by 4X while still maintaining  
the conventional 512 byte structure.  
The extended pass/fail status for multi-plane program/erase allows system software to quickly identify the failing page/block out of  
selected multiple pages/blocks. Usage of multi-plane operations will be described further throughout this document.  
In addition to the enhanced architecture and interface, the device incorporates copy-back program feature from one page to another  
of the same plane without the need for transporting the data to and from the external buffer memory. Since the time-consuming burst-  
reading and data-input cycles are removed, system performance for solid-state disk application is significantly increased.

FLASH MEMORY  
Memory Map  
The device is arranged in four 128Mbit memory planes. Each plane contains 1,024 blocks and 528 byte page registers. This allows it  
to perform simultaneous page program and block erase by selecting one page or block from each plane. The block address map is  
configured so that multi-plane program/erase operations can be executed for every four sequential blocks.

Pin Description  
Command Latch Enable(CLE)  
The CLE input controls the path activation for commands sent to the command register. When active high, commands are latched into  
the command register through the I/O ports on the rising edge of the WE signal.  
Address Latch Enable(ALE)  
The ALE input controls the activating path for address to the internal address registers. Addresses are latched on the rising edge of  
WE with ALE high.  
Chip Enable(CE)  
The CE input is the device selection control. When the device is in the Busy state, CE high is ignored, and the device does not return  
to standby mode in program or erase operation. Regarding CE control during read operation, refer to ’Page read’ section of Device  
operation .  
Write Enable(WE)  
The WE input controls writes to the I/O port. Commands, address and data are latched on the rising edge of the WE pulse.  
The WE must be held high when outputs are activated.  
Read Enable(RE)  
The RE input is the serial data-out control, and when active drives the data onto the I/O bus. Data is valid tREA after the falling edge of  
RE which also increments the internal column address counter by one.  
I/O Port : I/O 0 ~ I/O 7  
The I/O pins are used to input command, address and data, and to output data during read operations. The I/O pins float to high-z  
when the chip is deselected or when the outputs are disabled.  
Write Protect(WP)  
The WP pin provides inadvertent write/erase protection during power transitions. The internal high voltage generator is reset when the  
WP pin is active low.  
Ready/Busy(R/B)  
The R/B output indicates the status of the device operation. When low, it indicates that a program, erase or random read operation is  
in process and returns to high state upon completion. It is an open drain output and does not float to high-z condition when the chip is  
deselected or when outputs are disabled.

NAND Flash Technical Notes  
Initial Invalid Block(s)  
Initial invalid blocks are defined as blocks that contain one or more initial invalid bits whose reliability is not guaranteed by Samsung.  
The information regarding the initial invalid block(s) is so called as the initial invalid block information. Devices with initial invalid  
block(s) have the same quality level or as devices with all valid blocks and have the same AC and DC characteristics. An initial  
invalid block(s) does not affect the performance of valid block(s) because it is isolated from the bit line and the common source line by  
a select transistor. The system design must be able to mask out the initial invalid block(s) via address mapping. The 1st block, which  
is placed on 00h block address, is guaranteed to be a valid block, does not require Error Correction up to 1K Program/ Erase cycles.  
Identifying Initial Invalid Block(s)  
All device locations are erased(FFh) except locations where the initial invalid block(s) information is written prior to shipping. The  
initial invalid block(s) status is defined by the 6th byte in the spare area. Samsung makes sure that either the 1st or 2nd page of every  
initial invalid block has non-FFh data at the column address of 517. Since the initial invalid block information is also erasable in most  
cases, it is impossible to recover the information once it has been erased. Therefore, the system must be able to recognize the initial  
invalid block(s) based on the initial invalid block information and create the initial invalid block table via the following suggested flow  
chart(Figure 4). Any intentional erasure of the initial invalid block information is prohibited.  
Start  
Set Block Address = 0  
Increment Block Address

NAND Flash Technical Notes (Continued)  
Error in write or read operation  
Within its life time, additional invalid blocks may develop with NAND Flash memory. Refer to the qualification report for the actual  
data.The following possible failure modes should be considered to implement a highly reliable system. In the case of status read fail-  
ure after erase or program, block replacement should be done. Because program status fail during a page program does not affect  
the data of the other pages in the same block, block replacement can be executed with a page-sized buffer by finding an erased  
empty block and reprogramming the current target data and copying the rest of the replaced block. In case of Read, ECC must be  
employed. To improve the efficiency of memory space, it is recommended that the read or verification failure due to single bit error be  
reclaimed by ECC without any block replacement. The said additional block failure rate does not include those reclaimed blocks.

FLASH MEMORY  
Pointer Operation of K9F1208U0M  
Samsung NAND Flash has three address pointer commands as a substitute for the two most significant column addresses. ’00h’  
command sets the pointer to ’A’ area(0~255byte), ’01h’ command sets the pointer to ’B’ area(256~511byte), and ’50h’ command sets  
the pointer to ’C’ area(512~527byte). With these commands, the starting column address can be set to any of a whole  
page(0~527byte). ’00h’ or ’50h’ is sustained until another address pointer command is inputted. ’01h’ command, however, is effective  
only for one operation. After any operation of Read, Program, Erase, Reset, Power_Up is executed once with ’01h’ command, the  
address pointer returns to ’A’ area by itself. To program data starting from ’A’ or ’C’ area, ’00h’ or ’50h’ command must be inputted  
before ’80h’ command is written. A complete read operation prior to ’80h’ command is not necessary. To program data starting from  
’B’ area, ’01h’ command must be inputted right before ’80h’ command is written.

System Interface Using CE don’t-care.  
For an easier system interface, CE may be inactive during the data-loading or sequential data-reading as shown below. The internal  
528byte page registers are utilized as separate buffers for this operation and the system design gets more flexible. In addition, for  
voice or audio applications which use slow cycle time on the order of u-seconds, de-activating CE during the data-loading and read-  
ing would provide significant savings in power consumption.

Device Operation  
PAGE READ  
Upon initial device power up, the device defaults to Read1 mode. This operation is also initiated by writing 00h to the command regis-  
ter along with four address cycles. Once the command is latched, it does not need to be written for the following page read operation.  
Three types of operations are available : random read, serial page read and sequential row read.  
The random read mode is enabled when the page address is changed. The 528 bytes of data within the selected page are transferred  
to the data registers in less than 12µs(tR). The system controller can detect the completion of this data transfer(tR) by analyzing the  
output of R/B pin. Once the data in a page is loaded into the registers, they may be read out in 50ns cycle time by sequentially pulsing  
RE. High to low transitions of the RE clock output the data stating from the selected column address up to the last column address.  
After the data of last column address is clocked out, the next page is automatically selected for sequential row read.  
Waiting 12µs again allows reading the selected page. The sequential row read operation is terminated by bringing CE high. The way  
the Read1 and Read2 commands work is like a pointer set to either the main area or the spare area. The spare area of bytes 512 to  
527 may be selectively accessed by writing the Read2 command. Addresses A0 to A3 set the starting address of the spare area while  
addresses A4 to A7 are ignored. Unless the operation is aborted, the page address is automatically incremented for sequential row  
read as in Read1 operation and spare sixteen bytes of each page may be sequentially read. The Read1 command(00h/01h) is  
needed to move the pointer back to the main area. Figures 8 to 11 show typical sequence and timings for each read operation.

PAGE PROGRAM  
The device is programmed basically on a page basis, but it does allow multiple partial page programing of a byte or consecutive bytes  
up to 528, in a single page program cycle. The number of consecutive partial page programming operation within the same page with-  
out an intervening erase operation must not exceed 1 for main array and 2 for spare array. The addressing may be done in any ran-  
dom order in a block. A page program cycle consists of a serial data loading period in which up to 528 bytes of data may be loaded  
into the page register, followed by a non-volatile programming period where the loaded data is programmed into the appropriate cell.  
Serial data loading can be started from 2nd half array by moving pointer. About the pointer operation, please refer to the attached  
technical notes.  
The serial data loading period begins by inputting the Serial Data Input command(80h), followed by the four cycle address input and  
then serial data loading. The bytes other than those to be programmed do not need to be loaded.The Page Program confirm com-  
mand(10h) initiates the programming process. Writing 10h alone without previously entering the serial data will not initiate the pro-  
gramming process. The internal write state control automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for program and  
verify, thereby freeing the system controller for other tasks. Once the program process starts, the Read Status Register command  
may be entered, with RE and CE low, to read the status register. The system controller can detect the completion of a program cycle  
by monitoring the R/B output, or the Status bit(I/O 6) of the Status Register. Only the Read Status command and Reset command are  
valid while programming is in progress. When the Page Program is complete, the Write Status Bit(I/O 0) may be checked(Figure 12).  
The internal write verify detects only errors for "1"s that are not successfully programmed to "0"s. The command register remains in  
Read Status command mode until another valid command is written to the command register.

BLOCK ERASE  
The Erase operation is done on a block(16K Byte) basis. Block address loading is accomplished in three cycles initiated by an Erase  
Setup command(60h). Only address A14 to A25 is valid while A9 to A13 is ignored. The Erase Confirm command(D0h) following the  
block address loading initiates the internal erasing process. This two-step sequence of setup followed by execution command  
ensures that memory contents are not accidentally erased due to external noise conditions.  
At the rising edge of WE after the erase confirm command input, the internal write controller handles erase and erase-verify. When  
the erase operation is completed, the Write Status Bit(I/O 0) may be checked. Figure 13 details the sequence.

Multi-Plane Page Program  
Multi-Plane Page Program is an extension of Page Program, which is executed for a single plane with 528 byte page registers. Since  
the device is equipped with four memory planes, activating the four sets of 528 byte page registers enables a simultaneous program-  
ming of four pages. Partial activation of four planes is also permitted.  
After writing the first set of data up to 528 byte into the selected page register, Dummy Page Program command (11h) instead of  
actual Page Program (10h) is inputted to finish data-loading of the current plane and move to the next plane. Since no programming  
process is involved, R/B remains in Busy state for a short period of time(tDBSY). Read Status command (standard 70h or alternate  
71h) may be issued to find out when the device returns to Ready state by polling the Ready/Busy status bit(I/O 6). Then the next set  
of data for one of the other planes is inputted with the same command and address sequences. After inputting data for the last plane,  
actual True Page Program (10h) instead of dummy Page Program command (11h) must be followed to start the programming pro-  
cess. The operation of R/B and Read Status is the same as that of Page Program. Since maximum four pages are programmed simul-  
taneously, pass/fail status is available for each page when the program operation completes. The extended status bits (I/O1 through I/  
O 4) are checked by inputting the Read Multi-Plane Status Register. Status bit of I/O 0 is set to "1" when any of the pages fails. Multi-  
Plane page Program with "01h" pointer is not supported, thus prohibited.

Restriction in addressing with Multi Plane Page Program  
While any block in each plane may be addressable for Multi-Plane Page Program, the five least significant addresses(A9-A13) for  
the selected pages at one operation must be the same. Figure 15 shows an example where 2nd page of each addressed block is  
selected for four planes. However, any arbitrary sequence is allowed in addressing multiple planes as shown in Figure16.

Multi-Plane Block Erase  
Basic concept of Multi-Plane Block Erase operation is identical to that of Multi-Plane Page Program. Up to four blocks, one from each  
plane can be simultaneously erased. Standard Block Erase command sequences (Block Erase Setup command followed by three  
address cycles) may be repeated up to four times for erasing up to four blocks. Only one block should be selected from each plane.  
The Erase Confirm command initiates the actual erasing process. The completion is detected by analyzing R/B pin or Ready/Busy  
status (I/O 6). Upon the erase completion, pass/fail status of each block is examined by reading extended pass/fail status(I/O 1  
through I/O 4).

FLASH MEMORY  
Copy-Back Program  
The copy-back program is configured to quickly and efficiently rewrite data stored in one page within the plane to another page within  
the same plane without utilizing an external memory. Since the time-consuming sequently-reading and its re-loading cycles are  
removed, the system performance is improved. The benefit is especially obvious when a portion of a block is updated and the rest of  
the block also need to be copied to the newly assigned free block. The operation for performing a copy-back program is a sequential  
execution of page-read without burst-reading cycle and copying-program with the address of destination page. A normal read opera-  
tion with "00h" command and the address of the source page moves the whole 528byte data into the internal page registers. As soon  
as the device returns to Ready state, Page-Copy Data-input command (8Ah) with the address cycles of destination page followed  
may be written. The Program Confirm command (10h) is required to actually begin the programming operation. Copy-Back Program  
operation is allowed only within the same memory plane. Once the Copy-Back Program is finished, any additional partial page pro-  
gramming into the copied pages is prohibited before erase. A14 and A15 must be the same between source and target page.  
Figure19 shows the command sequence for single plane operation. "When there is a program-failure at Copy-Back operation,  
error is reported by pass/fail status. But if the soure page has a bit error for charge loss, accumulated copy-back operations  
could also accumulate bit errors. For this reason, two bit ECC is recommended for copy-back operation."

Multi-Plane Copy-Back Program  
Multi-Plane Copy-Back Program is an extension of one page Copy-Back Program into four plane operation. Since the device is  
equipped with four memory planes, activating the four sets of 528 byte page registers enables a simultaneous Multi-Plane Copy-Back  
programming of four pages. Partial activation of four planes is also permitted.  
First, normal read operation with the "00h"command and address of the source page moves the whole 528 byte data into internal  
page buffers. Any further read operation for transferring the addressed pages to the corresponding page register must be executed  
with "03h" command instead of "00h" command. Any plane may be selected without regard to "00h" or "03h". Up to four planes may  
be addressed. Data moved into the internal page registers are loaded into the destination plane addresses. After the input of com-  
mand sequences for reading the source pages, the same procedure as Multi-Plane Page programming except for a replacement  
address command with "8Ah" is executed. Since no programming process is involved during data loading at the destination plane  
address , R/B remains in Busy state for a short period of time(tDBSY). Read Status command (standard 70h or alternate 71h) may be  
issued to find out when the device returns to Ready state by polling the Ready/Busy status bit(I/O 6). After inputting data for the last  
plane, actual True Page Program (10h) instead of dummy Page Program command (11h) must be followed to start the programming  
process. The operation of R/B and Read Status is the same as that of Page Program. Since maximum four pages are programmed  
simultaneously, pass/fail status is available for each page when the program operation completes. No pointer operation is supported  
with Multi-Plane Copy-Back Program. Once the Multi-Plane Copy-Back Program is finished, any additional partial page pro-  
gramming into the copied pages is prohibited before erase once the Multi-Plane Copy-Back Program is finished.

READ STATUS  
The device contains a Status Register which may be read to find out whether program or erase operation is completed, and whether  
the program or erase operation is completed successfully. After writing 70h command to the command register, a read cycle outputs  
the content of the Status Register to the I/O pins on the falling edge of CE or RE, whichever occurs last. This two line control allows  
the system to poll the progress of each device in multiple memory connections even when R/B pins are common-wired. RE or CE  
does not need to be toggled for updated status. Refer to table 2 for specific Status Register definitions. The command register  
remains in Status Read mode until further commands are issued to it. Therefore, if the status register is read during a random read  
cycle, a read command(00h or 50h) should be given before sequential page read cycle.  
For Read Status of Multi Plane Program/Erase, the Read Multi-Plane Status command(71h) should be used to find out whether multi-  
plane program or erase operation is completed, and whether the program or erase operation is completed successfully. The pass/fail  
status data must be checked only in the Ready condition after the completion of Multi-Plane program or erase operation.

Read ID  
The device contains a product identification mode, initiated by writing 90h to the command register, followed by an address input of  
00h. Four read cycles sequentially output the manufacture code(ECh), and the device code (76h), Reserved(A5h), Multi plane opera-  
tion code(C0h) respectively. A5h must be don’t-cared. C0h means that device supports Multi Plane operation. The command register  
remains in Read ID mode until further commands are issued to it. Figure 22 shows the operation sequence.

RESET  
The device offers a reset feature, executed by writing FFh to the command register. When the device is in Busy state during random  
read, program or erase mode, the reset operation will abort these operations. The contents of memory cells being altered are no  
longer valid, as the data will be partially programmed or erased. The command register is cleared to wait for the next command, and  
the Status Register is cleared to value C0h when WP is high. Refer to table 4 for device status after reset operation. If the device is  
already in reset state a new reset command will not be accepted by the command register. The R/B pin transitions to low for tRST  
after the Reset command is written. Refer to Figure 23 below.

READY/BUSY  
The device has a R/B output that provides a hardware method of indicating the completion of a page program, erase and random  
read completion. The R/B pin is normally high but transitions to low after program or erase command is written to the command regis-  
ter or random read is started after address loading. It returns to high when the internal controller has finished the operation. The pin is  
an open-drain driver thereby allowing two or more R/B outputs to be Or-tied. Because pull-up resistor value is related to tr(R/B) and  
current drain during busy(ibusy) , an appropriate value can be obtained with the following reference chart(Fig 24). Its value can be

The device is designed to offer protection from any involuntary program/erase during power-transitions. An internal voltage detector  
disables all functions whenever Vcc is below about 2V. WP pin provides hardware protection and is recommended to be kept at VIL  
during power-up and power-down. A recovery time of minimum 10µs is required before internal circuit gets ready for any command  
sequences as shown in Figure 25. The two step command sequence for program/erase provides additional software protection.
