GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29DL322D/323D/324D family consists of
32 megabit, 3.0 volt-only flash memory devices, orga-
nized as 2,097,152 words of 16 bits each or 4,194,304
bytes of 8 bits each. Word mode data appears on
DQ0–DQ15; byte mode data appears on DQ0–DQ7.
The device is designed to be programmed in-system
with the standard 3.0 volt V
CC
supply, and can also be
programmed in standard EPROM programmers.
The devices are available with an access time of 70,
90 or 120 ns. The devices are offered in 48-pin TSOP
and 63-ball FBGA packages. Standard control
pins—chip enable (CE#), write enable (WE#), and out-
put enable (OE#)—control normal read and write op-
erations, and avoid bus contention issues.
The devices requires only a
single 3.0 volt power
supply
for both read and write functions. Internally
generated and regulated voltages are provided for the
program and erase operations.
other flash sector, or may permanently lock their own
code there.
DMS (Data Management Software)
allows systems
to easily take advantage of the advanced architecture
of the simultaneous read/write product line by allowing
removal of EEPROM devices. DMS will also allow the
system software to be simplified, as it will perform all
functions necessary to modify data in file structures,
as opposed to single-byte modifications. To write or
update a particular piece of data (a phone number or
configuration data, for example), the user only needs
to state which piece of data is to be updated, and
where the updated data is located in the system. This
i s a n a d va n t a g e c o m p a r e d t o s y s te m s w h e r e
user-written software must keep track of the old data
location, status, logical to physical translation of the
data onto the Flash memory device (or memory de-
vices), and more. Using DMS, user-written software
does not need to interface with the Flash memory di-
rectly. Instead, the user's software accesses the Flash
memory by calling one of only six functions. AMD pro-
vides this software to simplify system design and soft-
ware integration efforts.
The device offers complete compatibility with the
JEDEC single-power-supply Flash command set
standard.
Commands are written to the command
register using standard microprocessor write timings.
Reading data out of the device is similar to reading
from other Flash or EPROM devices.
The host system can detect whether a program or
erase operation is complete by using the device
sta-
tus bits:
RY/BY# pin, DQ7 (Data# Polling) and
DQ6/DQ2 (toggle bits). After a program or erase cycle
has been completed, the device automatically returns
to the read mode.
The
sector erase architecture
allows memory sec-
tors to be erased and reprogrammed 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 automatically inhibits write opera-
tions during power transitions. The
hardware sector
protection
feature disables both program and erase
operations in any combination of the sectors of mem-
ory. This can be achieved in-system or via program-
ming equipment.
The device offers two power-saving features. When
addresses have been 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 re-
duced in both modes.
Simultaneous Read/Write Operations with
Zero Latency
The Simultaneous Read/Write architecture provides
simultaneous operation
by dividing the memory
space into two banks. The device can improve overall
system performance by allowing a host system to pro-
gram or erase in one bank, then immediately and si-
multaneously read from the other bank, with zero
latency. This releases the system from waiting for the
completion of program or erase operations.
The Am29DL32xD device family uses multiple bank
architectures to provide flexibility for different applica-
tions. Two devices are available with the following
bank sizes:

Am29DL322D/323D/324D Features
The
SecSi™ (Secured Silicon) Sector
is an extra 64 Kbit
sector capable of being permanently locked by AMD
or customers. The
SecSi Indicator Bit
(DQ7) is per-
manently set to a 1 if the part is
factory locked,
and
set to a 0 if
customer lockable.
This way, customer
lockable parts can never be used to replace a factory
locked part.
Factory locked parts provide several options. The
SecSi Sector may store a secure, random 16 byte
ESN (Electronic Serial Number), customer code (pro-
grammed through AMD’s ExpressFlash service), or
both. Customer Lockable parts may utilize the SecSi
Sector as bonus space, reading and writing like any
