General Description
The S29AL008D in Known Good Die (KGD) form is an 8 Mbit, 3.0 volt-only Flash
memory. Spansion defines KGD as standard product in die form, tested for func-
tionality and speed. Spansion KGD products have the same reliability and quality
as Spansion products in packaged form.
S29AL008D Features
The S29AL008D is an 8 Mbit, 3.0 volt-only Flash memory organized as 1,048,576
bytes or 524,288 words. The word-wide data (x16) appears on DQ15–DQ0; the
byte-wide (x8) data appears on DQ7–DQ0. To eliminate bus contention, the de-
vice has separate chip enable (CE#), write enable (WE#) and output enable
(OE#) controls.
The device requires only a
single 3.0 volt power supply
for both read and write
functions. Internally generated and regulated voltages are provided for the pro-
gram and erase operations. No V
PP
is required for program or erase operations.
The device can also be programmed in standard EPROM programmers.
The device is entirely command set compatible with the
JEDEC single-power-
supply Flash standard.
Commands are written to the command register using
standard microprocessor write timings. Register contents serve as input to an in-
ternal state-machine that controls the erase and programming circuitry. Write
cycles also internally latch addresses and data needed for the programming and
erase operations. Reading data out of the device is similar to reading from other
Flash or EPROM devices.
Device programming occurs by executing the program command sequence. This
initiates the
Embedded Program
algorithm—an internal algorithm that auto-
matically times the program pulse widths and verifies proper cell margin. The
Unlock Bypass
mode facilitates faster programming times by requiring only two
write cycles to program data instead of four.
Device erasure occurs by executing the erase command sequence. This initiates
the
Embedded Erase
algorithm—an internal algorithm that automatically pre-
programs the array (if it is not already programmed) before executing the erase
operation. During erase, the device automatically times the erase pulse widths
and verifies proper cell margin.
The host system can detect whether a program or erase operation is complete by
observing the RY/BY# pin, or by reading the DQ7 (Data# Polling) and DQ6 (tog-
gle)
status bits.
After a program or erase cycle is completed, the device is ready
to read array data or accept another command.
The
sector erase architecture
allows memory sectors to be erased and repro-
grammed without affecting the data contents of other sectors. The device is fully
erased when shipped from the factory.
Hardware data protection
measures include a low V
CC
detector that automat-
ically inhibits write operations during power transitions. The
hardware sector
protection
feature disables both program and erase operations in any combina-
tion of the sectors of memory. This can be achieved in-system or via
programming equipment.
The
Erase Suspend
feature enables the user to put erase on hold for any period
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
hardware RESET# pin
terminates any operation in progress and resets the
internal state machine to reading array data. The RESET# pin may be tied to the
system reset circuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the device, enabling
the system microprocessor to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.
The device offers two power-saving features. When addresses are stable for a
specified amount of time, the device enters the
automatic sleep mode.
The
system can also place the device into the
standby mode.
Power consumption is
greatly reduced in both these modes.
Spansion’s Flash technology combines years of Flash memory manufacturing ex-
perience to produce the highest levels of quality, reliability and cost
effectiveness. The device electrically erases all bits within a sector simulta-
neously via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is programmed using hot
electron injection.
