6 / 38 page  A25L40P Series PRELIMINARY (May, 2007, Version 0.4) 5 AMIC Technology Corp. OPERATING FEATURES Page Programming To program one data byte, two instructions are required: Write Enable (WREN), which is one byte, and a Page Program (PP) sequence, which consists of four bytes plus data. This is followed by the internal Program cycle (of duration tPP). To spread this overhead, the Page Program (PP) instruction allows up to 256 bytes to be programmed at a time (changing bits from 1 to 0), provided that they lie in consecutive addresses on the same page of memory. Sector Erase and Bulk Erase The Page Program (PP) instruction allows bits to be reset from 1 to 0. Before this can be applied, the bytes of memory need to have been erased to all 1s (FFh). This can be achieved, a sector at a time, using the Sector Erase (SE) instruction, or throughout the entire memory, using the Bulk Erase (BE) instruction. This starts an internal Erase cycle (of duration tSE or tBE). The Erase instruction must be preceded by a Write Enable (WREN) instruction. Polling During a Write, Program or Erase Cycle A further improvement in the time to Write Status Register (WRSR), Program (PP) or Erase (SE or BE) can be achieved by not waiting for the worst case delay (tW, tPP, tSE, or tBE). The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is provided in the Status Register so that the application program can monitor its value, polling it to establish when the previous Write cycle, Program cycle or Erase cycle is complete. Active Power, Stand-by Power and Deep Power-Down Modes When Chip Select ( S ) is Low, the device is enabled, and in the Active Power mode. When Chip Select ( S ) is High, the device is disabled, but could remain in the Active Power mode until all internal cycles have completed (Program, Erase, Write Status Register). The device then goes in to the Stand-by Power mode. The device consumption drops to ICC1. The Deep Power-down mode is entered when the specific instruction (the Enter Deep Power-down Mode (DP) instruction) is executed. The device consumption drops further to ICC2. The device remains in this mode until another specific instruction (the Release from Deep Power-down Mode and Read Electronic Signature (RES) instruction) is executed. All other instructions are ignored while the device is in the Deep Power-down mode. This can be used as an extra software protection mechanism, when the device is not in active use, to protect the device from inadvertent Write, Program or Erase instructions. Status Register The Status Register contains a number of status and control bits that can be read or set (as appropriate) by specific instructions. WIP bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates whether the memory is busy with a Write Status Register, Program or Erase cycle. WEL bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch, BP2, BP1, and BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to be software protected against Program and Erase instructions. SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit is operated in conjunction with the Write Protect ( W ) signal. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit and Write Protect ( W ) signal allow the device to be put in the Hardware Protected mode. In this mode, the non-volatile bits of the Status Register (SRWD, BP2, BP1, BP0) become read-only bits. Protection Modes The environments where non-volatile memory devices are used can be very noisy. No SPI device can operate correctly in the presence of excessive noise. To help combat this, the A25L40P boasts the following data protection mechanisms: Power-On Reset and an internal timer (tPUW) can provide protection against inadvertant changes while the power supply is outside the operating specification. Program, Erase and Write Status Register instructions are checked that they consist of a number of clock pulses that is a multiple of eight, before they are accepted for execution. All instructions that modify data must be preceded by a Write Enable (WREN) instruction to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. This bit is returned to its reset state by the following events: - Power-up - Write Disable (WRDI) instruction completion - Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction completion - Page Program (PP) instruction completion - Sector Erase (SE) instruction completion - Bulk Erase (BE) instruction completion The Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits allow part of the memory to be configured as read-only. This is the Software Protected Mode (SPM). The Write Protect ( W ) signal allows the Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits and Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit to be protected. This is the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM). In addition to the low power consumption feature, the Deep Power-down mode offers extra software protection from inadvertant Write, Program and Erase instructions, as all instructions are ignored except one particular instruction (the Release from Deep Power-down instruction). |
