Memory Array
To provide optimal flexibility, the memory array of the Atmel
®
AT45DB161D is divided into three levels of
granularity comprising of sectors, blocks, and pages. The “Memory Architecture Diagram” illustrates the
breakdown of each level and details the number of pages per sector and block. All program operations to the Atmel
DataFlash
®
occur on a page by page basis. The erase operations can be performed at the chip, sector, block or
page level.
