HY29LV400
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HY29LV400 is a 4 Mbit, 3 volt-only, CMOS
Flash memory organized as 524,288 (512K) bytes
or 262,144 (256K) words that is available in 48-
pin TSOP and 48-ball FBGA packages. Word-
wide data (x16) appears on DQ[15:0] and byte-
wide (x8) data appears on DQ[7:0].
The HY29LV400 can be programmed and erased
in-system with a single 3 volt V
CC
supply. Inter-
nally generated and regulated voltages are pro-
vided for program and erase operations, so that
the device does not require a higher voltage V
PP
power supply to perform those functions. The de-
vice can also be programmed in standard EPROM
programmers. Access times as low as 70 ns over
the full operating voltage range of 2.7 - 3.6 volts
are offered for timing compatibility with the zero
wait state requirements of high speed micropro-
cessors. A 55 ns version operating from 3.0 to
3.6 volts is also available. To eliminate bus con-
tention, the HY29LV400 has separate chip enable
(CE#), write enable (WE#) and output enable
(OE#) controls.
The device is compatible with the JEDEC single-
power-supply Flash command set standard. Com-
mands are written to the command register using
standard microprocessor write timings. They are
then routed to an internal state-machine that con-
trols the erase and programming circuits. Device
programming is performed a byte/word at a time
by executing the four-cycle Program Command
write sequence. This initiates an internal algorithm
that automatically times the program pulse widths
and verifies proper cell margin. Faster program-
ming times can be achieved by placing the
HY29LV400 in the Unlock Bypass mode, which
requires only two write cycles to program data in-
stead of four.
The HY29LV400’s sector erase architecture allows
any number of array sectors to be erased and re-
programmed without affecting the data contents
of other sectors. Device erasure is initiated by
executing the Erase Command sequence. This
initiates an internal algorithm that automatically
preprograms the array (if it is not already pro-
grammed) before executing the erase operation.
As during programming cycles, the device auto-
matically times the erase pulse widths and veri-
fies proper cell margin. Hardware Sector Protec-
tion optionally disables both program and erase
operations in any combination of the sectors of
the memory array, while Temporary Sector Unpro-
tect allows in-system erasure and code changes
in previously protected sectors. Erase Suspend
enables the user to put erase on hold for any pe-
riod of time to read data from, or program data to,
any sector that is not selected for erasure. True
background erase can thus be achieved. The de-
vice is fully erased when shipped from the factory.
Addresses and data needed for the programming
and erase operations are internally latched during
write cycles, and the host system can detect
completion of a program or erase operation by
observing the RY/BY# pin, or by reading the DQ[7]
(Data# Polling) and DQ[6] (toggle) status bits.
Hardware data protection measures include a low
V
CC
detector that automatically inhibits write op-
erations during power transitions.
After a program or erase cycle has been com-
pleted, or after assertion of the RESET# pin (which
terminates any operation in progress), the device
is ready to read data or to accept another com-
mand. Reading data out of the device is similar to
reading from other Flash or EPROM devices.
Two power-saving features are embodied in the
HY29LV400. When addresses have been stable
for a specified amount of time, the device enters
the automatic sleep mode. The host can also place
the device into the standby mode. Power con-
sumption is greatly reduced in both these modes.

CONVENTIONS
Unless otherwise noted, a positive logic (active
High) convention is assumed throughout this docu-
ment, whereby the presence at a pin of a higher,
more positive voltage (V
IH
) causes assertion of the
signal. A ‘#’ symbol following the signal name, e.g.,
RESET#, indicates that the signal is asserted in
the Low state (V
IL
). See DC specifications for V
IH
and V
IL
values.
MEMORY ARRAY ORGANIZATION
The 4 Mbit Flash memory array is organized into
eleven blocks called
sectors
(S0, S1, . . . , S10).
A sector is the smallest unit that can be erased
and that can be protected to prevent accidental or
unauthorized erasure. See the ‘Bus Operations’
and ‘Command Definitions’ sections of this docu-
ment for additional information on these functions.
In the HY29LV400, four of the sectors, which com-
prise the
boot block,
vary in size from 8 to 32
BUS OPERATIONS
Device bus operations are initiated through the
internal command register, which consists of sets
of latches that store the commands, along with
the address and data information, if any, needed
to execute the specific command. The command
register itself does not occupy any addressable
memory location. The contents of the command
register serve as inputs to an internal state ma-
chine whose outputs control the operation of the
device. Table 3 lists the normal bus operations,
the inputs and control levels they require, and the
resulting outputs. Certain bus operations require
a high voltage on one or more device pins. Those
are described in Table 4.
Read Operation
Whenever a signal is separated into numbered
bits, e.g., DQ[7], DQ[6], ..., DQ[0], the family of
bits may also be shown collectively, e.g., as
DQ[7:0].
The designation 0xNNNN (N = 0, 1, 2, . . . , 9, A, .
. . , E, F) indicates a number expressed in hexadeci-
mal notation. The designation 0bXXXX indicates a
number expressed in binary notation (X = 0, 1).
Kbytes (4 to 16 Kwords), while the remaining
seven sectors are uniformly sized at 64 Kbytes
(32 Kwords). The boot block can be located at
the bottom of the address range (HY29LV400B)
or at the top of the address range (HY29LV400T).
Tables 1 and 2 define the sector addresses and
corresponding address ranges for the top and bot-
tom boot block versions of the HY29LV400.
ware reset to ensure that no spurious alteration of
the memory content occurs during the power tran-
sition. No command is necessary in this mode to
obtain array data, and the device remains enabled
for read accesses until the command register con-
tents are altered.
This device features an Erase Suspend mode.
While in this mode, the host may read the array
data from any sector of memory that is not marked
for erasure. If the host reads from an address
within an erase-suspended (or erasing) sector, or
while the device is performing a byte or word pro-
gram operation, the device outputs status data
instead of array data. After completing an Auto-
matic Program or Automatic Erase algorithm within
a sector, that sector automatically returns to the
read array data mode. After completing a program-
ming operation in the Erase Suspend mode, the
system may once again read array data with the
same exception noted above.
The host must issue a hardware reset or the soft-
ware reset command to return a sector to the read
array data mode if DQ[5] goes high during a pro-
gram or erase cycle, or to return the device to the
read array data mode while it is in the Electronic
ID mode.
Data is read from the HY29LV400 by using stan-
dard microprocessor read cycles while placing the
byte or word address on the device’s address in-
puts. The host system must drive the CE# and
OE# pins LOW and drive WE# high for a valid read
operation to take place. The BYTE# pin determines
whether the device outputs array data in words
(DQ[15:0]) or in bytes (DQ[7:0]).
The HY29LV400 is automatically set for reading
array data after device power-up and after a hard-
