The MX29L3211 includes 32 sectors of 64K words. MXIC's Flash memories offer the most cost-effective and reliable read/write non-volatile random access memory and fast page mode access. The MX29L3211 is packaged 44-pin SOP and 48-pin TSOP. It is designed to be reprogrammed and erased in-system or in-standard EPROM programmers. The standard MX29L3211 offers access times as fast as 100ns,allowing operation of high-speed microprocessors without wait. To eliminate bus contention, the MX29L3211 has separate chip enable CE, output enable (OE), and write enable (WE) controls. MXIC's Flash memories augment EPROM functionality with in-circuit electrical erasure and programming. The MX29L3211 uses a command register to manage this functionality. To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the MX29L3211 does not require high input voltages for programming. Three-volt-only commands determine the operation of the device. Reading data out of the device is similar to reading from an EPROM. MXIC Flash technology reliably stores memory contents even after 10,000 cycles. The MXIC's cell is designed to optimize the erase and programming mechanisms. In addition, the combination of advanced tunnel oxide processing and low internal electric fields for erase and programming operations produces reliable cycling. The MX29L3211 uses a 3.3V ± 10% VCC supply to perform the Auto Erase and Auto Program algorithms. The highest degree of latch-up protection is achieved with MXIC's proprietary non-epi process. Latch-up protection is proved for stresses up to 100 milliamps on address and data pin from -1V to VCC +1V.

The CIR serves as the interface between the microprocessor and the internal chip operation. The CIR can decipher Read Array, Read Silicon ID, Erase and Program command. In the event of a read command, the CIR simply points the read path at either the array or the silicon ID, depending on the specific read command given. For a program or erase cycle, the CIR informs the write state machine that a program or erase has been requested. During a program cycle, the write state machine will control the program sequences and the CIR will only respond to status reads. During a sector/ chip erase cycle, the CIR will respond to status reads and erase suspend. After the write state machine has completed its task, it will allow the CIR to respond to its full command set. The CIR stays at read status register mode until the microprocessor issues another valid command sequence. Device operations are selected by writing commands into the CIR.

This mode is intended for use by programming equipment for the purpose of automatically matching the device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algorithm. This mode is functional over the entire temperature range of the device. To activate this mode, the programming equipment must force VID (11.5V~12.5V) on address pin A9. Two identifier bytes may then be sequenced from the device outputs by toggling address A0 from VIL to VIH. All addresses are don't cares except A0 and A1. The manufacturer and device codes may also be read via the command register, for instances when the MX29L3211 is erased or programmed in a system without access to high voltage on the A9 pin. The command sequence is illustrated in Table 3. During the "Silicon ID Read" Mode, manufacturer's code (MXIC=C2H) can be read out by setting A0=VIL and device identifier (MX29L3211=F9H) can be read out by setting A0=VIH. To terminate the operation, it is necessary to write the read/reset command sequence into the CIR. Table 4.

Microprocessor read cycles retrieve array data from the memory. The device remains enabled for reads until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command sequence. The device will automatically power-up in the read/reset state. In this case, a command sequence is not required for "read operation". Standard microprocessor read cycles will retrieve array data. This default value ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory content occurs during the power transition. Refer to the AC Read Characteristics and Waveforms for the specific timing parameters. The MX29L3211 is accessed like an EPROM. When CE and OE are low and WE is high the data stored at the memory location determined by the address pins is asserted on the outputs. The outputs are put in the high impedance state whenever CE or OE is high. This dual line control gives designers flexibility in preventing bus contention. Note that the read/reset command is not valid when program or erase is in progress. After three-cycle command sequence is given, a byte(word) load is performed by applying a low pulse on the WE or CE input with CE or WE low (respectively) and OE high. The address is latched on the falling edge of CE or WE, whichever occurs last. The data is latched by the first rising edge of CE or WE. Maximum of 128 words of data may be loaded into each page by the same procedure as outlined in the page program section below. BYTE-WIDE LOAD/WORD-WIDE LOAD BYTE(word) loads are used to enter the 128 words(256 bytes) of a page to be programmed or the software codes for data protection. A byte(word load) is performed by applying a low pulse on the WE or CE input with CE or WE low (respectively) and OE high. The address is latched on the falling edge of CE or WE, whichever occurs last. The data is latched by the first rising edge of CE or WE. Either word-wide load or byte-wide load is determined(BYTE = VIL or VIH is latched) on the falling edge of the WE (or CE) during the 3rd command write cycle. PROGRAM Any page to be programmed should have the page in the erased state first, i.e. performing sector erase is suggested before page programming can be performed. The device is programmed on a page basis. If a byte(word) of data within a page is to be changed, data for the entire page can be loaded into the device. Any byte(word) that is not loaded during the programming of its page will be still in the erased state (i.e. FFH). Once the bytes of a page are loaded into the device, they are simultaneously programmed during the internal programming period. After the first data byte (word) has been loaded into the device, successive byte(word) are entered in the same manner. Each new byte(word) to be programmed must have its high to low transition on WE (or CE) within 30us of the low to high transition of WE (or CE) of the preceding byte(word). A7 to A20 specify the page address, i.e., the device is page-aligned on 128 word(256 byte)boundary. The page address must be valid during each high to low transition of WE or CE. A1 to A6 specify the byte address within the page, A0 to PAGE READ The MX29L3211 offers "fast page mode read" function. The users can take the access time advantage if keeping CE, OE at low and the same page address (A3~A20 unchanged). Please refer to Figure 5-2 for detailed timing waveform. The system performance could be enhanced by initiating 1 normal read and 7 fast page reads(for word mode A0~A2) or 15 fast page reads(for byte mode altering A-1~A2). PAGE PROGRAM To initiate Page Program mode, a three-cycle command sequence is required. There are two "unlock" write cycles. These are followed by writing the page program command-A0H. Any attempt to write to the device without the three-cycle command sequence will not start the internal Write State Machine(WSM), no data will be written to the device. P/N:PM0641 REV. 0.3, NOV. 06, 2001 9 MX29L3211 A6 specify the word address withih the page. The byte (word) may be loaded in any order; sequential loading is not required. If a high to low transition of CE or WE is not detected whithin 100us of the last low to high transition, the load period will end and the internal programming period will start. The Auto page program terminates when status on Q7 is '1' at which time the device stays at read status register mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command sequence.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 1,7,8) SECTOR ERASE Sector erase is a six-bus cycle operation. There are two "unlock" write cycles. These are followed by writing the set-up command-80H. Two more "unlock" write cycles are then followed by the sector erase command-30H. The sector address is latched on the falling edge of WE, while the command (data) is latched on the rising edge of WE. Sector erase does not require the user to program the device prior to erase. The system is not required to provide any controls or timings during these operations. The automatic sector erase begins on the rising edge of the last WE pulse in the command sequence and terminates when the status on Q7 is "1" at which time the device stays at read status register mode. The device remains enabled for read status register mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command sequence.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 3,4,7,9) CHIP ERASE Chip erase is a six-bus cycle operation. There are two "unlock" write cycles. These are followed by writing the "set-up" command-80H. Two more "unlock" write cycles are then followed by the chip erase command-10H. Chip erase does not require the user to program the device prior to erase. The automatic erase begins on the rising edge of the last WE pulse in the command sequence and terminates when the status on Q7 is "1" at which time the device stays at read status register mode. The device remains enabled for read status register mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command sequence.(Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 2,7,9) ERASE SUSPEND This command only has meaning while the the WSM is executing SECTOR or CHIP erase operation, and therefore will only be responded to during SECTOR or CHIP erase operation. After this command has been executed, the CIR will initiate the WSM to suspend erase operations, and then return to Read Status Register mode. The WSM will set the Q6 bit to a "1". Once the WSM has reached the Suspend state,the WSM will set the Q7 bit to a "1", At this time, WSM allows the CIR to respond to the Read Array, Read Status Register, Abort and Erase Resume commands only. In this mode, the CIR will not resopnd to any other comands. The WSM will continue to run, idling in the SUSPEND state, regardless of the state of all input control pins. Table 5.

Erase Resume will not have any effect in all other conditions. P/N:PM0641 REV. 0.3, NOV. 06, 2001 10 MX29L3211 READ STATUS REGISTER The MXIC's 32 Mbit flash family contains a status register which may be read to determine when a program or erase operation is complete, and whether that operation completed successfully. The status register may be read at any time by writing the Read Status command to the CIR. After writing this command, all subsequent read operations output data from the status register until another valid command sequence is written to the CIR. A Read Array command must be written to the CIR to return to the Read Array mode. The status register bits are output on Q3 - Q7(table 6) whether the device is in the byte-wide (x8) or word-wide (x16) mode for the MX29L3211. In the word-wide mode the upper byte, Q(8:15) is set to 00H during a Read Status command. In the byte-wide mode, Q(8:14) are tri-stated and Q15/A-1 retains the low order address function. Q0-Q1 is set to 0H in either x8 or x16 mode. It should be noted that the contents of the status register are latched on the falling edge of OE or CE 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 or OE 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 microprocessor 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 four through seven and clears bits six and seven, but cannot clear status bits four and five. If Erase fail or Program fail status bit is detected, the Status Register is not cleared until the Clear Status Register command is written. The MX29L3211 automatically outputs Status Register data when read after Chip Erase, Sector Erase, Page Program or Read Status Command write cycle. The default state of the Status Register after powerup and return from deep power-down mode is (Q7, Q6, Q5, Q4) = 1000B. Q3 = 0 or 1 depends on sector-protect status, can not be changed by Clear Status Register Command or Write State Machine. CLEAR STATUS REGISTER The Erase fail status bit (Q5) and Program fail status bit (Q4) are set by the write state machine, and can only be reset by the system software. These bits can indicate various failure conditions(see Table 6). By allowing the system software to control the resetting of these bits, several operations may be performed (such as cumulatively programming several pages or erasing multiple blocks in squence). The status register may then be read to determine if an error occurred during that programming or erasure series. This adds flexibility to the way the device may be programmed or erased. Additionally, once the program(erase) fail bit happens, the program (erase) operation can not be performed further. The program(erase) fail bit must be reset by system software before further page program or sector (chip) erase are attempted. To clear the status register, the Clear Status Register command is written to the CIR. Then, any other command may be issued to the CIR. Note again that before a read cycle can be initiated, a Read command must be written to the CIR to specify whether the read data is to come from the Array, Status Register or Silicon ID.

P/N:PM0641 REV. 0.3, NOV. 06, 2001 12 MX29L3211 SECTOR PROTECTION The MX29L3211 features sector protection. This feature will disable both program and erase operations in either the top or the bottom sector (0 or 31). The sector protection feature is enabled using system software by the user(Refer to table 3). The device is shipped with both sectors unprotected. Alternatively, MXIC may protect sectors in the factory prior to shipping the device. To activate this mode, a six-bus cycle operation is required. There are two 'unlock' write cycles. These are followed by writing the 'set-up' command. Two more 'unlock' write cycles are then followed by the Lock Sector command - 20H. Sector address is latched on the falling edge of CE or WE of the sixth cycle of the command sequence. The automatic Lock operation begins on the rising edge of the last WE pulse in the command sequence and terminates when the Status on Q7 is '1' at which time the device stays at the read status register mode. The device remains enabled for read status register mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command sequence (Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 10,12 ). SECTOR UNPROTECT It is also possible to unprotect the sector , same as the first five write command cycles in activating sector protection mode followed by the Unprotect Sector command -40H, the automatic Unprotect operation begins on the rising edge of the last WE pulse in the command sequence and terminates when the Status on Q7 is '1' at which time the device stays at the read status register mode. (Refer to table 3,6 and Figure 11,12) The device remains enabled for read status register mode until the CIR contents are altered by a valid command sequence. ABORT MODE To activate Abort mode, a three-bus cycle operation is required. The E0H command (Refer to table 3) only stops Page program or Sector /Chip erase operation currently in progress and puts the device in Abort mode. So the program or erase operation will not be completed. Since the data in some page/sectors is no longer valid due to an incomplete program or erase operation, the program fail (Q4) or erase fail (Q5)bit will be set. A read array command MUST be written to bring the device out of the abort state without incurring any wake up latency. Note that once device is brought out, Clear status register mode is required before a program or erase operation can be executed. VERIFY SECTOR PROTECT To verify the Protect status of the Top and the Bottom sector, operation is initiated by writing Silicon ID read command into the command register. Following the command write, a read cycle from address XXX0H retrieves the Manufacturer code of C2H. A read cycle from XXX1H returns the Device code F9H. A read cycle from appropriate address returns information as to which sectors are protected. To terminate the operation, it is necessary to write the read/reset command sequence into the CIR. (Refer to table 3,4 and Figure 12) A few retries are required if Protect status can not be verified successfully after each operation. DATA PROTECTION The MX29L3211 is designed to offer protection against accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious system level signals that may exist during power transitions. During power up the device automatically resets the internal state machine in the Read Array mode. Also, with its control register architecture, alteration of the memory contents only occurs after successful completion of specific multi-bus cycle command sequences. The device also incorporates several features to prevent inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC power-up and power-down transitions or system noise. P/N:PM0641 REV. 0.3, NOV. 06, 2001 13 MX29L3211 LOW VCC WRITE INHIBIT To avoid initiation of a write cycle during VCC power-up and power-down, a write cycle is locked out for VCC less than VLKO(typically 1.8V). If VCC < VLKO, the command register is disabled and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled. Under this condition the device will reset to the read mode. Subsequent writes will be ignored until the VCC level is greater than VLKO. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the control pins are logically correct to prevent unintentional write when VCC is above VLKO. WRITE PULSE "GLITCH" PROTECTION Noise pulses of less than 10ns (typical) on CE or WE will not initiate a write cycle. LOGICAL INHIBIT Writing is inhibited by holding any one of OE = VIL,CE = VIH or WE = VIH. To initiate a write cycle CE and WE must be a logical zero while OE is a logical one.
