4 / 30 page 28F010 APPLICATIONS The 28F010 flash memory provides nonvolatility along with the capability to perform over 100000 electrical chip-erasurereprogram cycles These fea- tures make the 28F010 an innovative alternative to disk EEPROM and battery-backed static RAM Where periodic updates of code and data-tables are required the 28F010’s reprogrammability and non- volatility make it the obvious and ideal replacement for EPROM Primary applications and operating systems stored in flash eliminate the slow disk-to-DRAM download process This results in dramatic enhancement of performance and substantial reduction of power consumption a consideration particularly impor- tant in portable equipment Flash memory increases flexibility with electrical chip erasure and in-system update capability of operating systems and applica- tion code With updatable code system manufactur- ers can easily accommodate last-minute changes as revisions are made In diskless workstations and terminals network traf- fic reduces to a minimum and systems are instant- on Reliability exceeds that of electromechanical media Often in these environments power interrup- tions force extended re-boot periods for all net- worked terminals This mishap is no longer an issue if boot code operating systems communication pro- tocols and primary applications are flash-resident in each terminal For embedded systems that rely on dynamic RAM disk for main system memory or nonvolatile backup storage the 28F010 flash memory offers a solid state alternative in a minimal form factor The 28F010 provides higher performance lower power consumption instant-on capability and allows an ‘‘execute in place’’ memory hierarchy for code and data table reading Additionally the flash memory is more rugged and reliable in harsh environments where extreme temperatures and shock can cause disk-based systems to fail The need for code updates pervades all phases of a system’s life from prototyping to system manufac- ture to after-sale service The electrical chip-erasure and reprogramming ability of the 28F010 allows in- circuit alterability this eliminates unnecessary han- dling and less-reliable socketed connections while adding greater test manufacture and update flexi- bility Material and labor costs associated with code changes increases at higher levels of system inte- gration the most costly being code updates after sale Code ‘‘bugs’’ or the desire to augment system functionality prompt after-sale code updates Field revisions to EPROM-based code requires the re- moval of EPROM components or entire boards With the 28F010 code updates are implemented locally via an edge-connector or remotely over a commun- cation link For systems currently using a high-density static RAMbattery configuration for data accumulation flash memory’s inherent nonvolatility eliminates the need for battery backup The concern for battery failure no longer exists an important consideration for portable equipment and medical instruments both requiring continuous performance In addition flash memory offers a considerable cost advantage over static RAM Flash memory’s electrical chip erasure byte pro- grammability and complete nonvolatility fit well with data accumulation and recording needs Electrical chip-erasure gives the designer a ‘‘blank slate’’ in which to log or record data Data can be periodically off-loaded for analysis and the flash memory erased producing a new ‘‘blank slate’’ A high degree of on-chip feature integration simpli- fies memory-to-processor interfacing Figure 4 de- picts two 28F010s tied to the 80C186 system bus The 28F010’s architecture minimizes interface cir- cuitry needed for complete in-circuit updates of memory contents The outstanding feature of the TSOP (Thin Small Outline Package) is the 12 mm thickness With stan- dard and reverse pin configurations TSOP reduces the number of board layers and overall volume nec- essary to layout multiple 28F010s TSOP is particu- larly suited for portable equipment and applications requiring large amounts of flash memory Figure 3 illustrates the TSOP Serpentine layout With cost-effective in-system reprogramming ex- tended cycling capability and true nonvolatility the 28F010 offers advantages to the alternatives EPROMs EEPROMs battery backed static RAM or disk EPROM-compatible read specifications straight-forward interfacing and in-circuit alterability offers designers unlimited flexibility to meet the high standards of today’s designs 4 |
