DATA SHEET
Am29BL802C
8 Megabit (512 K x 16-Bit)
CMOS 3.0 Volt-only Burst Mode Flash Memory
DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS
■ 32 words sequential with wrap around (linear
■ Embedded Algorithms
32), bottom boot
— Embedded Erase algorithm automatically
preprograms and erases the entire chip or any
combination of designated sectors
■ One 8 Kword, two 4 Kword, one 48 Kword, three
64 Kword, and two 128 Kword sectors
— Embedded Program algorithm automatically
writes and verifies data at specified addresses
■ Single power supply operation
— Regulated voltage range: 3.0 to 3.6 volt read and
write operations and for compatibility with high
performance 3.3 volt microprocessors
■ Minimum 100,000 erase cycle guarantee
per sector
■ 20-year data retention
■ Read access times
■ Compatibility with JEDEC standards
Burst access times as fast as 17 ns at industrial
temperature range (18 ns at extended
temperature range)
— Pinout and software compatible with single-
power supply Flash
— Superior inadvertent write protection
Initial/random access times as fast as 65 ns
■ Alterable burst length via BAA# pin
■ Power dissipation (typical)
— Backward-compatible with AMD Am29LV and
Am29F flash memories: powers up in
asynchronous mode for system boot, but can
immediately be placed into burst mode
— Burst Mode Read: 15 mA @ 25 MHz,
20 mA @ 33 MHz, 25 mA @ 40 MHz
■ Data# Polling and toggle bits
— Program/Erase: 20 mA
— Provides a software method of detecting
program or erase operation completion
— Standby mode, CMOS: 3 µA
■ 5 V-tolerant data, address, and control signals
■ Sector Protection
■ Ready/Busy# pin (RY/BY#)
— Provides a hardware method of detecting
program or erase cycle completion
— Implemented using in-system or via
programming equipment
■ Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
— Temporary Sector Unprotect feature allows code
changes in previously locked sectors
— Suspends an erase operation to read data from,
or program data to, a sector that is not being
erased, then resumes the erase operation
■ Unlock Bypass Program Command
— Reduces overall programming time when
issuing multiple program command sequences
■ Hardware reset pin (RESET#)
— Hardware method to reset the device for reading
array data
■ Package Option
— 56-pin SSOP
