PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The GLS36VF1601G and GLS36VF1602G are 1M x16 or
2M x8 CMOS Concurrent Read/Write Flash Memory manufactured with high performance SuperFlash memory technology. The split-gate cell design and thick oxide tunneling
injector attain better reliability and manufacturability compared with alternate approaches. The devices write (Program or Erase) with a 2.7-3.6V power supply and conform
to JEDEC standard pinouts for x8/x16 memories.
Featuring high performance Program, the GLS36VF160xG
provide a typical Program time of 7 µsec and use Toggle
Bit, Data# Polling, or RY/BY# to detect the completion of
the Program or Erase operation. To protect against inadvertent write, the devices have on-chip hardware and Soft-

ware Data Protection schemes. Designed, manufactured,
and tested for a wide spectrum of applications, these
devices are offered with a guaranteed endurance of 10,000
cycles. Data retention is rated at greater than 100 years.
These devices are suited for applications that require convenient and economical updating of program, configuration, or data memory. For all system applications, the
GLS36VF160xG significantly improve performance and
reliability, while lowering power consumption. These
devices inherently use less energy during Erase and Program than alternative flash technologies, because the total
energy consumed is a function of the applied voltage, current, and time of application. For any given voltage range,

the SuperFlash technology uses less current to program
and has a shorter erase time; therefore, the total energy
consumed during any Erase or Program operation is less
than alternative flash technologies.
TABLE 1: Concurrent Read/Write State
SuperFlash technology provides fixed Erase and Program
times, independent of the number of Erase/Program
cycles that have occurred. Therefore the system software
or hardware does not have to be modified or de-rated as is
necessary with alternative flash technologies, whose
Erase and Program times increase with accumulated
Erase/Program cycles.
Bank 2
Read
No Operation
Write
Note: For the purposes of this table, write means to perform Blockor Sector-Erase or Program operations as applicable to the
appropriate bank.
The Read operation of the GLS36VF160xG is controlled
by CE# and OE#, both of which have to be low for the
system to obtain data from the outputs. CE# is used for
device selection. When CE# is high, the chip is deselected
and only standby power is consumed. OE# is the output
control and is used to gate data from the output pins. The
data bus is in a high impedance state when either CE# or
OE# is high. Refer to Figure 9, the Read cycle timing diagram, for further details.
To meet high-density, surface-mount requirements, the
GLS36VF1601G and GLS36VF1602G devices are offered
in 48-ball TFBGA, 48-lead TSOP, and 56-ball LFBGA
packages. See Figures 6, 7, and 8 for pin assignments.
Device Operation
Program Operation
Memory operation functions are initiated using standard
microprocessor write sequences. A command is written by
asserting WE# low while keeping CE# low. The address
bus is latched on the falling edge of WE# or CE#, whichever occurs last. The data bus is latched on the rising edge
of WE# or CE#, whichever occurs first.
These devices are programmed on a word-by-word or
byte-by-byte basis depending on the state of the BYTE#
pin. Before programming, ensure that the sector which is
being programmed is fully erased.
The Program operation is accomplished in three steps:
1. Initiate Software Data Protection using the threebyte load sequence.
Auto Low Power Mode
These devices also have the Auto Lower Power mode
which puts them in a near-standby mode within 500 ns
after data has been accessed with a valid Read operation.
This reduces the typical IDD active Read current to 4 µA.
While CE# is low, the devices exit Auto Low Power mode
with any address transition or control signal transition used
to initiate another Read cycle, with no access time penalty.
2. Load address and data.
During the Program operation, the addresses are
latched on the falling edge of either CE# or WE#,
whichever occurs last. The data is latched on the
rising edge of either CE# or WE#, whichever
occurs first.
3. Initiate the internal Program operation after the rising edge of the fourth WE# or CE#, whichever
occurs first. The Program operation, once initiated, will be completed typically within 7 µs.
Concurrent Read/Write Operation
The dual bank architecture of these devices allows the
Concurrent Read/Write operation whereby the user can
read from one bank while programming or erasing in the
other bank. For example, reading system code in one bank
while updating data in the other bank. See Table 1 below
for more information.
See Figures 10 and 11 for WE# and CE# controlled Program operation timing diagrams and Figure 25 for flowcharts. During the Program operation, the only valid reads
are Data# Polling and Toggle Bit. During the internal Program operation, the host is free to perform additional tasks.
Any commands issued during an internal Program operation are ignored.

GLS36VF1601G / GLS36VF1602G
Data Sheet
Sector-Erase/Block-Erase Operation
Erase-Suspend/Erase-Resume Operations
The Sector- or Block- Erase operation allows the system to
erase the device on a sector-by-sector (or block-by-block)
basis. The GLS36VF160xG offer both Sector-Erase and
Block-Erase operations.
The Erase-Suspend operation temporarily suspends a
Sector- or Block-Erase operation thus allowing data to be
read or programmed into any sector or block that is not
engaged in an Erase operation. The operation is executed
by issuing a one-byte command sequence with Erase-Suspend command (B0H). The device automatically enters
read mode no more than 10 µs after the Erase-Suspend
command had been issued. (TES maximum latency equals
10 µs.) Valid data can be read from any sector or block that
is not suspended from an Erase operation. Reading at
address location within erase-suspended sectors/blocks
will output DQ2 toggling and DQ6 at ‘1’. While in EraseSuspend mode, a Program operation is allowed except for
the sector or block selected for Erase-Suspend.
The sector architecture is based on a uniform sector size of
2 KWord. The Sector-Erase operation is initiated by executing a six-byte command sequence with a Sector-Erase
command (50H) and sector address (SA) in the last bus
cycle.
The Block-Erase mode is based on a uniform block size of
32 KWord. Block-Erase is initiated by executing a six-byte
command sequence with Block-Erase command (30H) and
block address (BA) in the last bus cycle. The sector or block
address is latched on the falling edge of the sixth WE#
pulse, while the command (50H or 30H) is latched on the
rising edge of the sixth WE# pulse. The internal Erase operation begins after the sixth WE# pulse.
To resume a suspended Sector-Erase or Block-Erase
operation, the system must issue an Erase-Resume command. The operation is executed by issuing a one-byte
command sequence with Erase Resume command (30H)
at any address in the one-byte sequence.
Any commands issued during the Sector- or Block-Erase
operation are ignored except Erase-Suspend and EraseResume. See Figures 15 and 16 for timing waveforms.
Write Operation Status Detection
To optimize the system Write cycle time, the
GLS36VF160xG provide two software means to detect the
completion of a Write (Program or Erase) cycle The software detection includes two status bits: Data# Polling
(DQ7) and Toggle Bit (DQ6). The End-of-Write detection
mode is enabled after the rising edge of WE#, which initiates the internal Program or Erase operation.
Chip-Erase Operation
The GLS36VF1601G and GLS36VF1602G provide a
Chip-Erase operation, which erases the entire memory
array to the ‘1’ state. This operation is useful when the
entire device must be quickly erased.
The Chip-Erase operation is initiated by executing a sixbyte command sequence with Chip-Erase command
(10H) at address 555H in the last byte sequence. The
Erase operation begins with the rising edge of the sixth
WE# or CE#, whichever occurs first. During the Erase
operation, the only valid Read is Toggle Bit or Data# Polling. Any commands issued during the Chip-Erase operation are ignored. See Table 6 for the command sequence,
Figure 14 for timing diagram, and Figure 29 for the flowchart. When WP# is low, any attempt to Chip-Erase will be
ignored.
©2010 Greenliant Systems, Ltd.
The actual completion of the nonvolatile write is asynchronous with the system. Therefore, Data# Polling or
Toggle Bit maybe be read concurrent with the completion
of the write cycle. If this occurs, the system may possibly
get an incorrect result from the status detection process.
For example, valid data may appear to conflict with either
DQ7 or DQ6. To prevent false results, upon detection of
failures, the software routine should loop to read the
accessed location an additional two times. If both reads
are valid, then the device has completed the Write cycle,
otherwise the failure is valid.

GLS36VF1601G / GLS36VF1602G
Data Sheet
Ready/Busy# (RY/BY#)
Toggle Bits (DQ6 and DQ2)
The GLS36VF160xG include a Ready/Busy# (RY/BY#)
output signal. RY/BY# is an open drain output pin that indicates whether an Erase or Program operation is in progress. Since RY/BY# is an open drain output, it allows
several devices to be tied in parallel to VDD via an external
pull-up resistor. After the rising edge of the final WE# pulse
in the command sequence, the RY/BY# status is valid.
During the internal Program or Erase operation, any consecutive attempts to read DQ6 will produce alternating ‘1’s
and ‘0’s, i.e., toggling between ‘1’ and ‘0’. When the internal
Program or Erase operation is completed, the DQ6 bit will
stop toggling, and the device is then ready for the next
operation. For Sector-, Block-, or Chip-Erase, the toggle bit
(DQ6) is valid after the rising edge of sixth WE# (or CE#)
pulse. DQ6 will be set to ‘1’ if a Read operation is attempted
on an Erase-Suspended Sector or Block. If Program operation is initiated in a sector/block not selected in Erase-Suspend mode, DQ6 will toggle.
When RY/BY# is actively pulled low, it indicates that an
Erase or Program operation is in progress. When RY/BY#
is high (Ready), the devices may be read or left in standby
mode.
An additional Toggle Bit is available on DQ2, which can be
used in conjunction with DQ6 to check whether a particular
sector or block is being actively erased or erase-suspended. Table 2 shows detailed bit status information. The
Toggle Bit (DQ2) is valid after the rising edge of the last
WE# (or CE#) pulse of Write operation. See Figure 13 for
Toggle Bit timing diagram and Figure 26 for a flowchart.
Byte/Word (BYTE#)
The device includes a BYTE# pin to control whether the
device data I/O pins operate x8 or x16. If the BYTE# pin is
at logic “1” (VIH) the device is in x16 data configuration: all
data I/0 pins DQ0-DQ15 are active and controlled by CE#
and OE#.
If the BYTE# pin is at logic ‘0’, the device is in x8 data configuration -- only data I/O pins DQ0-DQ7 are active and controlled by CE# and OE#. The remaining data pins DQ8DQ14 are at Hi-Z, while pin DQ15 is used as the address
input A-1 for the Least Significant Bit of the address bus.
TABLE 2: Write Operation Status

Data# Polling (DQ7)

Mode
When the GLS36VF160xG are in an internal Program
operation, any attempt to read DQ7 will produce the complement of true data. Once the Program operation is completed, DQ7 will produce valid data.
During internal Erase operation, any attempt to read DQ7
will produce a ‘0’. Once the internal Erase operation is completed, DQ7 will produce a ‘1’. The Data# Polling is valid
after the rising edge of fourth WE# (or CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector-, Block-, or Chip-Erase, the
Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of sixth WE# (or
CE#) pulse. See Figure 12 for Data# Polling (DQ7) timing
diagram and Figure 26 for a flowchart.

GLS36VF1601G / GLS36VF1602G
Data Sheet
Data Protection
These devices are shipped with the Software Data Protection permanently enabled. See Table 6 for the specific software command codes.
The GLS36VF160xG provide both hardware and software
features to protect nonvolatile data from inadvertent writes.
All Program operations require the inclusion of the threebyte sequence. The three-byte load sequence is used to
initiate the Program operation, providing optimal protection
from inadvertent Write operations. SDP for Erase operations is similar to Program, but a six-byte load sequence is
required for Erase operations.
Hardware Data Protection
Noise/Glitch Protection: A WE# or CE# pulse of less than 5
ns will not initiate a Write cycle.
VDD Power Up/Down Detection: The Write operation is
inhibited when VDD is less than 1.5V.
Write Inhibit Mode: Forcing OE# low, CE# high, or WE#
high will inhibit the Write operation. This prevents inadvertent writes during power-up or power-down.
During SDP command sequence, invalid commands will
abort the device to read mode within TRC. The contents of
DQ15-DQ8 can be VIL or VIH, but no other value, during any
SDP command sequence.
Hardware Block Protection
Common Flash Memory Interface (CFI)
The GLS36VF1601G and GLS36VF1602G provide hardware block protection which protects the outermost 8
KWord in the smaller bank. The block is protected when
WP# is held low. See Figures 2, 3, 4, and 5 for Block-Protection location.
These devices contain Common Flash Memory Interface
(CFI) information that describes the characteristics of the
device. In order to enter the CFI Query mode, the system
must write a three-byte sequence, using the CFI Query
command, to address BKx555H in the last byte sequence.
The system can also use the one-byte sequence with
address BKx55H and Data Bus 98H to enter this mode.
See Figure 18 for CFI Entry and Read timing diagram.
Once the device enters the CFI Query mode, the system
can read CFI data at the addresses given in Tables 7
through 9.
Block protection is disabled by driving WP# high. This
allows data to be erased or programmed into the protected
sectors. WP# must be held high prior to issuing the Write
command and remain stable until after the entire Write
operation has completed. If WP# is left floating, it is internally held high via a pull-up resistor, and the Boot Block is
unprotected, enabling Program and Erase operations on
that block.
The system must write the CFI Exit command to return to
Read mode from the CFI Query mode.
Hardware Reset (RST#)
Security ID
The RST# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the
devices to read array data. When the RST# pin is held low
for at least TRP, any in-progress operation will terminate
and return to Read mode (see). When no internal Program/
Erase operation is in progress, a minimum period of TRHR
is required after RST# is driven high before a valid Read
can take place. See Figures 22 and 21 for more information.
The GLS36VF160xG offer a 136-word Security ID space.
The Secure ID space is divided into two segments — one
128-bit, factory-programmed, segment and one 256-Byte,
user programmed segment. The first segment is programmed and locked at Greenliant and contains a 128 bit
Unique ID which uniquely identifies the device. The user
segment is left un-programmed for the customer to program
as desired.
The interrupted Erase or Program operation must be re-initiated after the device resumes normal operation mode to
ensure data integrity.
The user segment of the Security ID can be programmed
using the Security ID Program command. End-of-Write status is checked by reading the toggle bits. Data# Polling is
not used for Security ID End-of-Write detection.
Software Data Protection (SDP)
The GLS36VF160xG devices implement the JEDEC
approved Software Data Protection (SDP) scheme for all
data alteration operations, such as Program and Erase.
©2010 Greenliant Systems, Ltd.
Once the programming is complete, lock the Sec ID by
issuing the User Sec ID Program Lock-Out command.
Locking the Sec ID disables any corruption of this space.
Note that regardless of whether or not the Sec ID is locked,
the Sec ID segments can not be erased.

The Secure ID space can be queried by executing a threebyte command sequence with Query Sec ID command
(88H) at address 555H in the last byte sequence. See Figure 20 for timing diagram. To exit this mode, the Exit Sec ID
command should be executed. Refer to Table 6 for more
details.

operation, Figure 17 for the Software ID Entry and Read
timing diagram, and Figure 27 for the Software ID Entry
command sequence flowchart.
Product Identification Mode Exit/CFI Mode Exit
In order to return to the standard Read mode, the Software
Product Identification mode must be exited. The exit is
accomplished by issuing the Software ID Exit command
sequence, which returns the device to the Read mode.
This command may also be used to reset the device to the
Read mode after any inadvertent transient condition that
causes the device to behave abnormally. Please note that
the Software ID Exit/CFI Exit command is ignored during an
internal Program or Erase operation. See Table 6 for the
software command code, Figure 19 for timing waveform
and Figure 28 for a flowchart.
The addresses A19 and A18 indicate a bank address.
When the addressed bank is switched to Product Identification mode, it is possible to read another address from the
same bank without issuing a new Software ID Entry command.

Address Inputs
Functions
To provide memory addresses. During Sector-Erase and Hardware Sector Protection,
A19-A11 address lines will select the sector. During Block-Erase A19-A15 address
lines will select the block.
DQ14-DQ0 Data Input/Output
To output data during Read cycles and receive input data during Write cycles
Data is internally latched during a Write cycle. The outputs are in tri-state when
OE# or CE# is high.
DQ15/A-1
DQ15 is used as data I/O pin when in x16 mode (BYTE# = “1”)
A-1 is used as the LSB address pin when in x8 mode (BYTE# = “0”)
