Distinctive Characteristics
Architectural Advantages
◾ Single power supply operation
— 3 volt read, erase, and program operations
◾ Manufactured on 200 nm MirrorBit process
technology
◾ Secured Silicon Sector region
— 128-word/256-byte sector for permanent, secure
identification through an 8-word/16-byte random
Electronic Serial Number, accessible through a
command sequence
— May be programmed and locked at the factory or by
the customer
◾ Flexible sector architecture
— 64Mb (uniform sector models): 128 32 Kword (64 KB)
sectors or 128 32 Kword sectors
— 64Mb (boot sector models): 127 32 Kword (64 KB)
sectors + 8 4Kword (8KB) boot sectors
◾ Compatibility with JEDEC standards
— Provides pinout and software compatibility for single
power supply flash, and superior inadvertent write
protection
◾ 100,000 erase cycles typical per sector
◾ 20-year data retention typical
Performance Characteristics
◾ High performance
— 100 ns access time
— 4-word/8-byte page read buffer
— 25 ns page read times
— 16-word/32-byte write buffer, which reduces overall
programming time for multiple-word updates
◾ Low power consumption (typical values at 3.0
V, 5 MHz)
— 18 mA typical active read current
— 50 mA typical erase/program current
— 1 µA typical standby mode current
