PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 are CMOS Multi-Purpose
Flash (MPF) manufactured with SST’s proprietary, high
performance CMOS SuperFlash technology. The split-gate
cell design and thick oxide tunneling injector attain better
reliability and manufacturability compared with alternate
approaches. The SST39SF010A/020A/040 devices write
(Program or Erase) with a 4.5-5.5V power supply. The
SST39SF010A/020A/040 devices conform to JEDEC stan-
dard pinouts for x8 memories.
Featuring high performance Byte-Program, the
SST39SF010A/020A/040 devices provide a maximum
Byte-Program time of 20 µsec. These devices use Toggle
Bit or Data# Polling to indicate the completion of Program
operation. To protect against inadvertent write, they have
on-chip hardware and Software Data Protection schemes.
Designed, manufactured, and tested for a wide spectrum of
applications, these devices are offered with a guaranteed
typical endurance of 100,000 cycles. Data retention is rated
at greater than 100 years.
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 devices are suited for appli-
cations that require convenient and economical updating of
program, configuration, or data memory. For all system
applications, they significantly improve performance and
reliability, while lowering power consumption. They inher-
ently use less energy during erase and program than alter-
native flash technologies. The total energy consumed is a
function of the applied voltage, current, and time of applica-
tion. Since for any given voltage range, the SuperFlash
technology uses less current to program and has a shorter
erase time, the total energy consumed during any Erase or
Program operation is less than alternative flash technolo-
gies. These devices also improve flexibility while lowering
the cost for program, data, and configuration storage appli-
cations.
The SuperFlash technology provides fixed Erase and Pro-
gram times, independent of the number of Erase/Program
cycles that have occurred. Therefore the system software
or hardware does not have to be modified or de-rated as is
necessary with alternative flash technologies, whose Erase
and Program times increase with accumulated Erase/Pro-
gram cycles.
To meet high density, surface mount requirements, the
SST39SF010A/020A/040 are offered in 32-lead PLCC and
32-lead TSOP packages. A 600 mil, 32-pin PDIP is also
available. See Figures 2, 3, and 4 for pin assignments.

Device Operation
Commands are used to initiate the memory operation func-
tions of the device. Commands are written to the device
using standard microprocessor write sequences. A com-
mand is written by asserting WE# low while keeping CE#
low. The address bus is latched on the falling edge of WE#
or CE#, whichever occurs last. The data bus is latched on
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever occurs first.
Read
The Read operation of the SST39SF010A/020A/040 is
controlled by CE# and OE#, both have to be low for the
system to obtain data from the outputs. CE# is used for
device selection. When CE# is high, the chip is dese-
lected and only standby power is consumed. OE# is the
output control and is used to gate data from the output
pins. The data bus is in high impedance state when
either CE# or OE# is high. Refer to the Read cycle timing
diagram (Figure 5) for further details.
Byte-Program Operation
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 are programmed on a byte-
by-byte basis. Before programming, the sector where the
byte exists must be fully erased. The Program operation is
accomplished in three steps. The first step is the three-byte
load sequence for Software Data Protection. The second
step is to load byte address and byte data. During the Byte-
Program operation, the addresses are latched on the falling
edge of either CE# or WE#, whichever occurs last. The
data is latched on the rising edge of either CE# or WE#,
whichever occurs first. The third step is the internal Pro-
gram operation which is initiated after the rising edge of the
fourth WE# or CE#, whichever occurs first. The Program
operation, once initiated, will be completed, within 20 µs.
See Figures 6 and 7 for WE# and CE# controlled Program
operation timing diagrams and Figure 16 for flowcharts.
During the Program operation, the only valid reads are
Data# Polling and Toggle Bit. During the internal Program
operation, the host is free to perform additional tasks. Any
commands written during the internal Program operation
will be ignored.
Sector-Erase Operation
The Sector-Erase operation allows the system to erase the
device on a sector-by-sector basis. The sector architecture
is based on uniform sector size of 4 KByte. The Sector-
Erase operation is initiated by executing a six-byte com-
mand load sequence for Software Data Protection with
Sector-Erase command (30H) and sector address (SA) in
the last bus cycle. The sector address is latched on the fall-
ing edge of the sixth WE# pulse, while the command (30H)
is latched on the rising edge of the sixth WE# pulse. The
internal Erase operation begins after the sixth WE# pulse.
The End-of-Erase can be determined using either Data#
Polling or Toggle Bit methods. See Figure 10 for timing
waveforms. Any commands written during the Sector-
Erase operation will be ignored.
Chip-Erase Operation
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 provide Chip-Erase opera-
tion, which allows the user to erase the entire memory
array to the “1s” state. This is useful when the entire device
must be quickly erased.
The Chip-Erase operation is initiated by executing a six-
byte Software Data Protection command sequence with
Chip-Erase command (10H) with address 5555H in the last
byte sequence. The internal Erase operation begins with
the rising edge of the sixth WE# or CE#, whichever occurs
first. During the internal Erase operation, the only valid read
is Toggle Bit or Data# Polling. See Table 4 for the command
sequence, Figure 11 for timing diagram, and Figure 19 for
the flowchart. Any commands written during the Chip-
Erase operation will be ignored.
Write Operation Status Detection
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 provide two software means
to detect the completion of a Write (Program or Erase)
cycle, in order to optimize the system Write cycle time. The
software detection includes two status bits: Data# Polling
(DQ7) and Toggle Bit (DQ6). The End-of-Write detection
mode is enabled after the rising edge of WE# which ini-
tiates the internal Program or Erase operation.
The actual completion of the nonvolatile write is asynchro-
nous with the system; therefore, either a Data# Polling or
Toggle Bit read may be simultaneous with the completion
of the Write cycle. If this occurs, the system may possibly
get an erroneous result, i.e., valid data may appear to con-
flict with either DQ7 or DQ6. In order to prevent spurious
rejection, if an erroneous result occurs, the software routine
should include a loop to read the accessed location an
additional two (2) times. If both reads are valid, then the
device has completed the Write cycle, otherwise the rejec-
tion is valid.

Data# Polling (DQ7)
When the SST39SF010A/020A/040 are in the internal Pro-
gram operation, any attempt to read DQ7 will produce the
complement of the true data. Once the Program operation
is completed, DQ7 will produce true data. Note that even
though DQ7 may have valid data immediately following the
completion of an internal Write operation, the remaining
data outputs may still be invalid: valid data on the entire
data bus will appear in subsequent successive Read
cycles after an interval of 1 µs. During internal Erase opera-
tion, any attempt to read DQ7 will produce a ‘0’. Once the
internal Erase operation is completed, DQ7 will produce a
‘1’. The Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of fourth
WE# (or CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector- or
Chip-Erase, the Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge
of sixth WE# (or CE#) pulse. See Figure 8 for Data# Polling
timing diagram and Figure 17 for a flowchart.
Toggle Bit (DQ6)
During the internal Program or Erase operation, any con-
secutive attempts to read DQ6 will produce alternating 0s
and 1s, i.e., toggling between 0 and 1. When the internal
Program or Erase operation is completed, the toggling will
stop. The device is then ready for the next operation. The
Toggle Bit is valid after the rising edge of fourth WE# (or
CE#) pulse for Program operation. For Sector- or Chip-
Erase, the Toggle Bit is valid after the rising edge of sixth
WE# (or CE#) pulse. See Figure 9 for Toggle Bit timing dia-
gram and Figure 17 for a flowchart.
Data Protection
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 provide both hardware and
software features to protect nonvolatile data from inadvert-
ent writes.
Hardware Data Protection
Noise/Glitch Protection: A WE# or CE# pulse of less than 5
ns will not initiate a Write cycle.
VDD Power Up/Down Detection: The Write operation is
inhibited when VDD is less than 2.5V.
Write Inhibit Mode: Forcing OE# low, CE# high, or WE#
high will inhibit the Write operation. This prevents inadvert-
ent writes during power-up or power-down.
Software Data Protection (SDP)
The SST39SF010A/020A/040 provide the JEDEC
approved Software Data Protection scheme for all data
alteration operations, i.e., Program and Erase. Any Pro-
gram operation requires the inclusion of a series of three-
byte sequence. The three-byte load sequence is used to
initiate the Program operation, providing optimal protection
from inadvertent Write operations, e.g., during the system
power-up or power-down. Any Erase operation requires the
inclusion of six-byte load sequence. The SST39SF010A/
020A/040 devices are shipped with the Software Data Pro-
tection permanently enabled. See Table 4 for the specific
software command codes. During SDP command
sequence, invalid commands will abort the device to read
mode, within TRC.
Product Identification
The Product Identification mode identifies the device as the
SST39SF040, SST39SF010A, or SST39SF020A and
manufacturer as SST. This mode may be accessed by soft-
ware operations. Users may wish to use the software Prod-
uct Identification operation to identify the part (i.e., using the
device ID) when using multiple manufacturers in the same
socket. For details, Table 4 for software operation, Figure
12 for the software ID entry and read timing diagram and
Figure 18 for the ID entry command sequence flowchart.
Product Identification Mode Exit/Reset
In order to return to the standard Read mode, the Software
Product Identification mode must be exited. Exit is accom-
plished by issuing the Exit ID command sequence, which
returns the device to the Read operation. Please note that
the software reset command is ignored during an internal
Program or Erase operation. See Table 4 for software com-
mand codes, Figure 13 for timing waveform and Figure 18
for a flowchart.
