SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M29 W010B is a 1 M bit (128Kb x8) n on-vola-
tile memory that can be read, erased and repro-
grammed. These operations can be performed
using a si ngl e low voltage (2.7 to 3.6V) supply. On
power-up the memory defaults to its Read mode
where it can be read in the same way as a ROM or
EPROM.

The memory is divided into blocks that can be
erased independently so it is possible t o preserv e
valid data while old dat a is erased. Each block can
be protected independently to prevent accidental
Program or Erase commands from modifying the
memory. P rogram and Eras e com m ands are wri t-
ten to the Com mand Interface of t he memory. An
on-chip Program/Erase Controller simplifies the
process of program ming or erasing t he memory by
taking care of al l of the speci al operations that are
required to update the mem ory con tents. The end
of a program or erase operation can be detected
and any error conditions identified. The c om m and
set required to control the memory is consistent
with JEDEC standards.
Chip Enabl e, Output Enable and Write Enable sig-
nals control the bus operation of the memory.
They allow simple connection to most micropro-
cessors, often without additional logic.
The memory i s offered in PLCC32 or T SOP32 (8 x
20mm) packages and i t is supplied with all the bits
erased (set to ’1’).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
See Figure 1, Logic Diag ram, and T able 1, Sign al
Names, for a brief overview of the signals connect-
ed to this device.
Address Inputs (A0-A16). The Address Inputs
select the cell s in the memory arra y to access dur-
ing Bus Read operations. During Bus Wri te opera-
tions they control the commands sent to the
Comman d Interface of the internal state machine.
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). The Data In-
puts/Outputs out put the data stored at the selected
address during a Bus Read operation. During Bus
Write operations they represent the commands
sent to the Command Interface of the int ernal state
machine.
Chip Enable (E). The Chip Enable, E, activates
the memory , allowing Bus Read and Bus Write op-
erations to be performed. When Chip Enable is
High, VIH, all other pins are ignored.
Output Enable (G). The Output Enable, G, con-
trols the Bus Read operation of the memory.
Write Enable (W). T he Write Enable, W, controls
the Bus Write operation of the memory’s Com-
ma nd Inte r fa ce .
VCC Supply Voltage. The VCC Supply Voltage
supplies the power for all operations (Read, Pro-
gram, Erase etc.).
The Command Interface is dis abled when the VCC
Supply Voltage is less than the Lockout Voltage,
VLKO. This prevent s Bus Write operations from ac-
cidentally damaging the data during power-up,
power-down and power surges. If the Program/
Erase Controller is programming or erasing during
this time then the operation aborts and the memo-
ry contents being altered will be invalid.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected between
the V CC Supply Voltage pin and the VSS Ground
pin to decoupl e the current surges from t he power
supply. The PCB track widths m ust be sufficient to
carry the currents required during program and
erase operat ions, ICC3.
VSS Ground. The V SS Ground is the r eference for
all voltage measureme nts.

BUS OPERATIONS
There are five s tandard bus operations t hat control
the device. These are Bus Read, Bus Wri te, Out-
put Disable, Standby and Automat ic Standby. See
Table 4, Bus Operations, for a summary. Typi cally
glitches of less than 5ns on Chip E nable o r Write
Enable are i gnored by t he mem ory and do not a f-
fect bus operations.
Bus Read. Bus Read operations read from the
memory cells, or specific registers in the Com-
mand Interface. A valid Bus Read operation in-
volves setting the desi red address on the Address
Inputs, appl ying a Low s ig nal, VIL, to Chip Enable
and Output Enable and keeping Write Enable
High, VIH. The Dat a I nputs/Ou tputs will output the
value, see Figure 8, Read Mode AC Waveforms,
and Table 11, Read AC Characteristics, for details
of when the output becomes valid.
Bus Write. Bus Write operations write to the
Command Interface. A valid Bus Write operation
begins by setting the desire d address on the Ad-
dress Inputs. The Address Inputs are latched by
the Command Interface on the falling edge of Chip
Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs last.
The Dat a Input s/Outpu ts a re latched by the Com-
mand Interface on the rising edge of Chip Enab le
or Write Enable, whichever occurs first. Output En-
able must remai n High, VIH, during the whole Bus
Write operation. See Figures 9 and 10, Write AC
Waveforms, and Tables 12 and 13, Write AC
Characteristics, for details of the timing require-
ments.
Outp ut Disable. The Data Inputs/Outputs are in
the high impeda nce state when Output Enable is
High, VIH.
Standby. When Chip Enable is High, VIH, the
memory enters Standby mode and the Data In-
puts/Outputs pins are placed in the high-imped-
ance state. To reduce the Supply Current to the
Standby Supply Current, ICC2, Chip Enable should
be held within VCC ± 0.2V. For t he Standby current
level see Table 10, DC Characteristics.
During program or erase operations the memory
will continue to use the Program/Erase Supply
Current, ICC3, for Program or Erase operations un-
til the operation com pletes .
Automatic Standby. If CMOS levels (VCC ± 0.2V)
are used to drive the bus and the bus is inact ive for
150ns or more the memory enters Automatic
Standby where the internal Supply Current is re-
duced to the Standby Supply Current, ICC2. The
Data Inputs/Outputs will still output data if a Bus
Read operation is in progress.
Special Bus Operations
Additional bus operations can be performed to
read the Electronic Signature and also to apply
and remove Block Protection. These bus opera-
tions are intended for use by programming equip-
ment and are not usually used in applications.
They require VID to be applied to some pins.
Electronic Sign atur e. The memory has two
codes, the manufacturer code and the device
code, that can be read to identify the memory.
These co des can be read by applying the s ignals
listed in Table 4, Bus Operat i ons.
Block Protection and Blocks Unprotection. Each
block can be separately protected against acci-
dental Program or Erase. Protected blocks can be
unprotected to allow data to be changed. Block
Protection and Blocks Unprotection operations
must only be performed on programming equip-
ment. For further information refer to Application
Note AN1122, Applying P rotection and Unp rotec-
tion to M29 Series Flash.

COMMAND INTERFACE
All Bus Write operations t o the memory are in ter-
preted by the Command Interface. Commands
consist of one or more sequential Bus Write oper-
ations. Failure to observe a val id sequence of Bus
Write operations will result in the memory return-
ing to Read mode. The long command sequences
are imposed to maximize data security.
The command s are summ arized in Table 5, Com-
mands. Refer to Table 5 in conjunction with the
text descriptions below.
Read/Reset Comm and. The Read/Reset com-
mand returns the memory to its Read mode where
it behaves like a ROM or EPROM. It also resets
the errors in the Status Register. Either one or
three Bus Write operations can be used to issue
the Read/ Reset command.
If the Read/Reset command is issued during a
Block Erase operation or following a Programm ing
or Erase error then the memory will take upto 10µs
to abort. During the abort period no valid data can
be read from the memory. Issuing a Read/Reset
command during a Block Erase operation will
leave invalid data in the memory.
Auto Select Command. The Auto Select com-
mand i s us ed to read the Man ufacturer Code, the
Device Code and the Block Protection Status.
Three consecutive Bus Write operations are re-
quired to issue the Auto Select command. Once
the Auto Select command is issued the memory
remains in Auto Select mode until another com-
mand is issued.
From the Auto Select mode the Manufacturer
Code can be read using a Bus Read operation
with A 0 = VIL and A1 = VIL. The other address bits
may be set to e ither VIL or VIH. The Ma nufa cturer
Code for STMicroelectronics is 20h.
The Device Code can b e read using a Bus Read
operation with A0 = VIH and A1 = VIL. The other
address bits may be set to either V IL or VIH. The
Device Code for the M29W010B is 23h.
The B lock P rot ection S t atus of e ac h bl ock can be
read using a Bus Read operation with A0 = VIL,
A1 = VIH, and A14-A16 specifying the add ress of
the block. The other address bits may be set to ei-
ther VIL or VIH. If the addressed block is pr otected
then 01h is output on the Data I nputs/Outputs, oth-
erwise 00h is output.
Progra m Command . The Program command
can be used to program a value to one address in
the memory array at a time. The command re-
quires four Bus Write operations, the final write op-
eration latches the address and data in the internal
state machine and starts the Program/Erase Con-
troller.
If the address falls in a protected block then the
Program command is ignored, the data remains
unchanged. The Status Register is nev er read and
no error condition is given.
During the program operation the memory will ig-
nore all co mmands. I t is not possible t o issue any
command to abort or pause the operation. Typical
program times are given in Table 6. Bus Read op-
erations during the program operation will output
the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs.
See the section on the Status Register for more
details.
After the program operation has completed the
memory will return to the Read mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Regis-
ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
set the error condition and return to Read mode.
Note that t he Program command cannot change a
bit set at ’0’ back to ’1’. One of the Erase Com-
mands must be used to set all the bits in a block or
in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.
Unlock Bypass Comma nd. The Unlock Bypass
command is used in conjunction with the Unlock
Bypass Program c ommand to program the memo-
ry. When the access time to the device is long (as
with some EPROM programmers) considerable
time saving can be made by using these com-
mands. Three Bus Write operations are required
to issue the Unlock Bypass comm and.
Once the Unlock Bypass command has been is-
sued the memory will only accept the Unlock By-
pass Program command and the Unlock Bypass
Reset command. The memory can be read as if in
Read mode.
Unlock Bypass Prog ram Comm an d. The Un-
lock Bypass Program command can be used to
program one address in memory at a time. The
command requires two Bus Write operations, the
final write operation latches the address and data
in the internal state machine and starts the Pro-
gram/Erase Controller.
The Program operation using the Unlock Bypass
Program c ommand behaves identically to the Pro-
gram operation using the Program command. A
protected block cannot be program m ed; the oper-
ation cannot be aborted and the Status Register is
read. Errors must be reset using the Read/Reset
command, w hich l eaves the d evice in Unlo ck By-
pass Mode. See the Program command for details
on the behavior.
Unlock Bypass Reset Comman d. The Unlock
Bypass Re set comm and can be used to return to
Read/Reset mode from Unlock Bypass Mode.
Two Bus Write operations are requir ed to issue the
Unlo ck Bypa ss Reset command.
M29W010B
6/19
Chip Erase Command. The Chip Erase com-
mand can be used to erase the entire chip. Six Bus
Write operations are required to issue the Chip
Erase Command and start the Program/Erase
Controller.
If any blocks are protected then these are ignored
and all the other blocks are erased. If all of the
blocks a re p rote cted the Chip Era se o perat i on ap-
pears to start but will terminate within about 100µs,
leaving the data unchange d. No error co ndition is
given when protected blocks are ignored.
During the erase operation the memory wi l l ignore
all commands. It is not possible to issue any com-
mand to abort the operation. Typical chip erase
times are given in Table 6. All Bus Read opera-
tions during the Chip Erase operation will output
the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs.
See the section on the Status Register for more
details.
After the Chip Erase operation has com pleted the
memory will return to the Read Mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Regis-
ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
set the error condition and return to Read Mode.
The Chip Erase Command sets all of the bits in un-
protected blocks of the memory to ’ 1’. All previous
data is lost.

Block Erase Command. The Block Erase com-
mand can be used to erase a list of one or more
blocks. Six Bus Write operations are required to
select the first block in the list. Each additional
block in the list can be selected by repeating the
sixth Bus Wr ite operation using the address of the
additional block. The Bl ock Erase operation st arts
the Program/Erase Controller about 50µs after the
last Bus Write operation. Once the Program/Erase
Controller starts it is not possible to select any
more blocks. Each additional block must therefore
be selected within 50µs of the last block. The 50µs
timer r estarts when an additional block is select ed.
The Status Register can be read after the sixth
Bus Write operation. See the Status Register for
details on how to identify if the Program/Erase
Controller has start ed the Block Erase operation.
If any selected blocks are protect ed then t hese are
ignored and all the other selected blocks are
erased. If all of the selected blocks are protected
the Block Erase operation appears to start but will
terminate within about 100µs, l eaving the data un-
changed. No error condition is given when protect-
ed blocks are ignored.
During the Blo ck Erase ope ra tion the me mory will
ignore all commands except the Erase Suspend
and Read/Reset commands. Typical block erase
times are given in Table 6. All Bus Read opera-
tions du ring the Blo ck E rase operation will ou tput
the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs.
See the section on the Status Register for more
details.
After the Block Erase operation has completed the
memory will return to the Read Mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Regis-
ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
set the error condition and return to Read mode.
The Block Erase Command sets all of the bits in
the unprotected selec ted bl ocks to ’1’ . All previous
data in the selected blocks is lost.
Erase Suspend Comm and. The Erase Suspend
Comman d m ay be used to temporari ly suspend a
Block Erase operation and return the memory to
Read mode. The command requires one Bus
Write operation.
The Prog ram/Eras e Controlle r will sus pend within
15µs of the Erase Suspend Command being is-
sued. Once the Program/Erase Controller has
stopped the memory will be set t o Read mode and
the Erase will be suspended. If the Erase Sus pend
command is issued during the period when the
memory is waiting for an additional block (before
the Program/Erase Controller starts) then the
Erase is susp ended i mmedi ately and wi ll start im-
mediately when the Erase Resume Command is
issued. It will not be possible to select any further
blocks fo r er asur e aft er the Erase Resume.
During Erase Suspend it is possible to Read and
Program cells in blocks that are not being erased;
both Read and Program operations behave as
normal on these blocks. Reading from blocks that
are being eras ed will output the Status Register. I t
is also possible to ent er t he Aut o Select mode: the
memory will behave as in the Auto Select mode on
all blocks until a Read/Reset command returns the
memory to Erase Suspen d mode.
Erase Resum e Command. The Erase Resume
command must be used to restart the Program/
Erase Controller from Erase Suspend. An erase
can be suspended and resum ed more than onc e.

STATUS REGISTER
Bus Read operations from any address always
read the Status Register during Program and
Erase operations. It is also r ead during Erase Sus-
pend when an address within a block being erased
is acce ssed .
The bits in the Status Register are s um marized in
Table 7, Status Register Bits.
Data Polling Bit (DQ7). The Data Polling Bit can
be used to identify whether the Program/Erase
Controller has successfully completed its opera-
tion or if it has responded to an Erase Suspend.
The Data Polling Bit is output on DQ7 when the
Status Register is read.
During Program operations the Data Polling Bit
outputs the complement of the bit being pro-
grammed to DQ7. After successful completion of
the Program operation the memory returns to
Read mode and Bus Read operations from t he ad-
dress just programmed output DQ7, not its com-
plement.
During Erase ope rations the Data Polling Bit out-
puts ’0’, the complement of the erased state of
DQ7. Aft er suc cessful completion of the Erase op-
eration the memory returns to Read Mod e.
In Erase Suspend mode the Data Polling Bit will
output a ’1’ during a Bus Read operation within a
block being erased. The Data Polling Bit will
change f rom a ’0’ to a 1’ when the Program/ Erase
Controller has suspe nded the Erase operation.
Figure 4, Data Polling Flowchart, gives an exam-
ple of how to use the Data Polling Bit. A V alid Ad-
dress is the address being programmed or an
address within the block being erased.
Toggle Bit (DQ6). The Togg le Bit can be used to
identify whether the Program/Er as e Controller has
successfully completed its operation or if it has re-
sponded to an Erase Suspend. The Toggle Bit is
output on DQ6 when the Status Register is read.
During Program and Erase operations the Toggle
Bit changes f rom ’0 ’ to ’ 1’ to ’ 0’, et c., with succes-
sive Bus Read operations at any address. After
successful completion of the operation t he memo-
ry returns to Read mode.
During Erase Suspend mode the Toggle Bit will
output when addressing a cell wi thin a bl ock being
erased. The Toggle Bit will stop t oggling when the
Program/Erase Controller has suspended the
Erase operation.
Figure 5 , Data Toggle Flowchart, g ives an exam-
ple of how to use the Data Toggle Bit.
Error Bit (DQ5). The Error Bit can be used to
identify errors detected by the Program/Erase
Controller. The Error Bit is set to ’1’ when a Pro-
gram, Block Erase or Chip Erase operation fails to
write the correct data to the memory. If the Error
Bit is set a Rea d/Re se t comm and must be issued
before other command s are issued. The Error bit
is output on DQ5 when the Status Register is read.
Note that t he Program command cannot change a
bit set at ’0’ back to ’1’ and attempting to do so may
or may not set DQ5 at ’1’. In both cases, a s ucces-
sive Bus Read operation will show the bit is st ill ’0’.
One of the Erase comm ands must be used to set
all the bits in a block or in the whole me mory from
’0’ to ’1’.

M29W010B
Erase Timer Bit (DQ3). The Erase Timer Bit can
be used to identify the start of Program/Erase
Controller operation during a Block Erase com-
mand. Once the Program/Erase Controller starts
erasing the Erase Ti mer Bit is set to ’1’ . Before the
Program/Erase Controller starts the Erase Timer
Bit is set to ’0’ and additional block s to be eras ed
may be written to the Command Interface. The
Erase Timer Bit is output on DQ3 when the Status
Register is read.
Alternative Toggle Bit (DQ2). The Alternative
Toggle Bit can be used to monitor the Program/
Erase controller during Erase operations. The Al-
ternative Toggle Bit is output on DQ2 when the
Status Register is read.
During Chip Erase and Block Erase operations the
Toggle Bit changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc., with
successive Bus Re ad operations from addresses
withi n the blocks being erased. Once the operati on
completes the memory returns to Read mode.
During Erase Suspend the Alternative Toggle Bit
changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc. with successive
Bus Read operations from addresses within the
blocks being erased. Bus Read operations to ad-
dresses within blocks not being erased will output
the memory cell data as if in Read mode.
After an Erase operation that caus es t he Error Bit
to be set the Alternative Toggle Bit can be used to
identify which block or bloc ks have caused the er-
ror. The Alternative Toggle Bit changes from ’0’ to
’1’ to ’0’, etc. with successive Bus Read Opera-
tions from addresses within blocks that have not
erased correctly. The Alternative Toggle Bit does
not change if the addressed block has erased cor-
rectly.
