• 150ns Maximum Access Time
PCMCIA/JEIDA 68-pin standard
• x8/ x16 Data Interface
• type I Form Factor
Automated write and erase operations
• 64Kbyte memory sectors for faster automated
erase speed

bytes; 16µs per byte typical
100,000 Erase/Program Cycles
The WEDC FLC series is based on AMD Am29F040
Flash memories; the FLC04 is a direct equivalent of
AMD’s AmC0XXCFLKA, however it offers wider range of
intermediate memory capacities.
Note:
Standard options include attribute memory. Cards without attribute memory are
available. Cards are also available with or without a hardware write protect switch.
ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW
FLC Series Cards are based on the Am29F040 (4Mb)
components which work with single 5V applications.
Manufacture/Device code is 01h/A4h.
FLC series is designed to support from 2 to 20 components,
providing densities ranging from 1MB to 10MB in 1MB
increments. In support of the PC Card 95 standard for
word wide access devices are paired. Write, read and
erase operations can be performed as either a word or
byte wide operation . By multiplexing A0, CE1# and CE2#,
8-bit hosts can access all data on data lines DQ0 - DQ7.
The FLC series cards conform to the PC Card Standard
(PCMCIA) and JEIDA, providing electrical and physical
compatibility. The PC Card form factor offers an industry
standard pinout and mechanical outline, allowing density
upgrades without system design changes.
WEDC’s standard cards are shipped with WEDC’s Logo.
Cards are also available with blank housings (no Logo).
The blank housings are available in both a recessed
(for label) and flat housing. Please contact WEDC
sales representative for further information on Custom
artwork.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
WEDC’s FLC Series Flash memory cards offer medium/
high density linear Flash solid state storage solutions for
code and data storage, high performance disk emulation
and execute in place (XIP) applications in mobile PC and
dedicated (embedded) equipment.
FLC series cards conform to PCMCIA international
standard.
The card’s control logic provides the system interface
and controls the internal Flash memories. Card can be
read/written in byte-wide or word-wide mode which allows
for flexible integration into various systems. Combined
with file management software, such as Flash Translation
Layer (FTL), FLC Flash cards provide removable high-
performance disk emulation.
The FLC series cards contain separate 2kB EEPROM
memory for Card Information Structure (CIS) which can be
used for easy identification of card characteristics.

3. For the 3MB card the memory will wrap at the 4MB boundary, for 5MB, 6MB, and &
7MB cards the memory will wrap at the 8MB boundary, for 9MB and 10MB cards the

CARD SIGNAL DESCRIPTION
ADDRESS INPUTS:
A0 through A25 enable direct addressing of up to 64MB of memory on the card. Signal A0 is not used
in word access mode. The memory will wrap at the card density boundary (see PINOUT, note 3). The system should not try
to access memory beyond the card density. A25 is the most significant bit. A24 – A25 are not connected.
DQ0 - DQ15 INPUT/OUTPUT
DATA INPUT/OUTPUT:
DQ0 THROUGH DQ15 constitute the bi-directional databus. DQ0 – DQ7 constitute the lower
(even) byte and DQ8 – DQ15 the upper (odd) byte. DQ15 is the MSB.
CE1#, CE2#
INPUT
CARD ENABLE 1 AND 2:
CE1# enables even byte accesses, CE2# enables odd byte accesses. Multiplexing A0, CE1#
and CE2# allows 8-bit hosts to access all data on DQ0 - DQ7.

WRITE ENABLE:

READY/BUSY OUTPUT:
Indicates status of internally timed erase or program algorithms. This signal is not connected.
CARD DETECT 1 and 2:
Provide card insertion detection. These signals are internally connected to ground on the card.
The host shall monitor these signals to detect card insertion (pulled-up on host side).
WRITE PROTECT:
Write protect reflects the status of the Write Protect switch on the memory card. WP set to high = write
protected, providing internal hardware write lockout to the Flash array.
If card does not include optional write protect switch, this signal will be pulled low internally indicating write protect = “off”.
PROGRAM/ERASE POWER SUPPLY:
Provides programming voltages 12.0V for lower byte (D0 – D7) memory
components. This signal is not connected.
PROGRAM/ERASE POWER SUPPLY:
Provides programming voltages 12.0V for upper byte (D8 – D15) memory
components. This signal is not connected.
CARD POWER SUPPLY:
(5.0V).

ATTRIBUTE MEMORY SELECT:

WAIT:
This signal is pulled high internally for compatibility. No wait states are generated.
BATTERY VOLTAGE DETECT:
These signals are pulled high to maintain SRAM card compatibility.
