3 Bus operations

Bus operations

There are five standard bus operations that control the device. These are Bus Read (Random

and Page modes), Bus Write, Output Disable, Standby and Automatic Standby.

Dual operations are possible in the M29DW128F, thanks to its multiple bank architecture. While

programming or erasing in one banks, read operations are possible in any of the other banks.

Write operations are only allowed in one bank at a time.

See Table 3 and Table 6, Bus Operations, for a summary. Typically glitches of less than 5ns on

Chip Enable, Write Enable, and Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect pins are ignored by the

memory and do not affect bus operations.

3.1

Bus Read

Bus Read operations read from the memory cells, or specific registers in the Command

Interface. To speed up the read operation the memory array can be read in Page mode where

data is internally read and stored in a page buffer. The Page has a size of 8 Words and is

addressed by the address inputs A0-A2.

A valid Bus Read operation involves setting the desired address on the Address Inputs,

applying a Low signal, VIL, to Chip Enable and Output Enable and keeping Write Enable High,

VIH. The Data Inputs/Outputs will output the value, see Figure 12: Random Read AC

Waveforms, Figure 13: Page Read AC Waveforms, and Table 26: Read AC Characteristics, for

details of when the output becomes valid.

3.2

Bus Write

Bus Write operations write to the Command Interface. A valid Bus Write operation begins by

setting the desired address on the Address Inputs. The Address Inputs are latched by the

Command Interface on the falling edge of Chip Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs last.

The Data Inputs/Outputs are latched by the Command Interface on the rising edge of Chip

Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs first. Output Enable must remain High, VIH, during

the whole Bus Write operation. See Figure 14 and Figure 15, Write AC Waveforms, and

Table 27 and Table 28, Write AC Characteristics, for details of the timing requirements.

3.3

Output Disable

The Data Inputs/Outputs are in the high impedance state when Output Enable is High, VIH.

3.4

Standby

When Chip Enable is High, VIH, the memory enters Standby mode and the Data Inputs/Outputs

pins are placed in the high-impedance state. To reduce the Supply Current to the Standby

Supply Current, ICC2, Chip Enable should be held within VCC ± 0.2V. For the Standby current

level see Table 25: DC Characteristics. During program or erase operations the memory will

continue to use the Program/Erase Supply Current, ICC3, for Program or Erase operations until

the operation completes.
