GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The K8S5615E featuring single 1.8V power supply is a 256Mbit
Muxed Burst Multi Bank Flash Memory organized as 16Mx16.
The memory architecture of the device is designed to divide its
memory arrays into 519 blocks with independent hardware pro-
tection. This block architecture provides highly flexible erase
and program capability. The K8S5615E NOR Flash consists of
sixteen banks. This device is capable of reading data from one
bank while programming or erasing in the other bank.
Regarding read access time, the K8S5615E provides an 14.5ns
burst access time and an 88.5ns initial access time at 54MHz.
At 66MHz, the K8S5615E provides an 11ns burst access time
and 70ns initial access time. The device performs a program
operation in units of Single 16 bits (word) and an erase opera-
tion in units of a block. Single or multiple blocks can be erased.
The block erase operation is completed within typically 0.7 sec.
The device requires 15mA as program/erase current in the
extended temperature ranges.
The K8S5615E NOR Flash Memory is created by using Sam-
sung's advanced CMOS process technology. This device is
available in 44 ball FBGA package.
