1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The W29N01Gx (1G-bit) NAND Flash memory provides a storage solution for embedded systems with
limited space, pins and power. It is ideal for code shadowing to RAM, solid state applications and storing
media data such as, voice, video, text and photos. The device operates on a single 1.7V to 1.95V power
supply with active current consumption as lo w as 25mA and 10uA for CMOS standby current.
The memory array totals 138,412,032 bytes, and organized into 1,024 erasable blocks of 135,168 bytes.
Each block consists of 64 programmable pages of 2,112-bytes each. Each page consists of 2,048-bytes
for the main data storage area and 64-bytes for the spare data area (The spare area is typically used for
error managem ent functions).
The W29N01GX supports the standard NAND flash memory interface using the multiplexed 8-bit bus to
transfer data, addresses, and command instructions. The five control signals, CLE, ALE, #CE, #RE and
#WE handle the bus interface protocol. Also, the device has two other signal pins, the #WP (Write
Protect) and t he RY /#BY (Ready/ B usy ) for monitoring the device stat us.

#CE pin enables and disables device operation. When #CE is high the device is disabled and the I/O pins
are set to high impedance and enters into standby mode if not busy. When #CE is set low the device will
be enabled, power consumption will increase to active levels and the device is ready for Read and Write
operations.
4.2 Write Enable (#WE)
#WE pin enables the device to control write operations to input pins of the device. Such as, command
instructions, addresses and data that are latched on t he rising edge of #WE.
4.3 Read Enable (#RE)
#RE pin controls serial data output from the pre-loaded Data Register. Valid data is present on the I/O
bus after the tREA period from the falling edge of #RE. Column addresses are incremented for each #RE
pulse.
4.4 Address Latch Enable (ALE)
ALE pin controls address input to the address register of the device. When ALE is active high, addresses
are latched via t he I/O pins on the rising edge of #WE.
4.5 Command Latch Enable (CLE)
CLE pin controls command input to the command register of the device. When CLE is active high,
commands are lat ched into the comma nd register via I/O pins on the rising edge of #WE.
4.6 Write Protect (#WP)
#WP pin can be used to prevent the inadvertent program/erase to the device. When #WP pin is active
low, all program/erase operations are disabled.
4.7 Ready/Busy (RY/#BY)
RY/#BY pin indicates the device status. When RY/#BY output is low, it indicates that the device is
processing either a program, erase or read operations. When it returns to high, those operations have
completed. RY/#BY pin is an open drain.
4.8 Input and Output (I/Ox)
I/Ox bi-directional pins are used for the following; command, address and data operations.

9. DEVICE OPERATIONS
9.1 READ operation
9.1.1 P AG E READ (00h-30h)
When the device powers on, the defaul t is READ mode. This operation can also be entered by writing 00h
command to the command register, and then write four addre ss cycles, followed by writing 30h command.
After writing 30h command, the data is transferred from NAND array to Data Register during tR. Data
transfer progress can be done by monitoring the status of the RY/#BY signal output. RY/#BY signal will
be LOW during data transfer. Also, there is an alternate method by using the READ STATUS (70h)
command. If the READ STATUS command is issued during read operation, the Read (00h) command
must be re-issued to read out the data from Data Register. When the data transfer is complete, RY/#BY
signal goes HIGH, and the data can be read from Data Register by toggling #RE. Read is sequential from
initial column address to the end of the page. (See Figure 9-1)

16 Advance Info rmation Revision A
9.1.2 CACHE RE AD OPERATIONS
To obtain a higher degree of performance read operations, the device’s Cache and Data Register can be
used independent of each other. Data can be read out from the Cache Register, while array data is
transferred from the NAND Array to the Data Register.
The CACHE READ mode starts with issuing a PAGE READ command (00h-30h) to transfer a page of
data from NAND array to the Cache Register. RY/#BY signal will go LOW during data transfer indicating a
busy status. Copying the next page of data from the NAND array to the Data Register while making the
Cache Register page data available is done by issuing either a SEQUENTIAL CACHE READ (31h) or
RANDOM CACHE READ (00h-31h) command. The SEQUENTIAL CACHE READ mode will copy the
next page of data in sequence from the NAND array to the Data Register or use the RANDOM CACHE
READ mode (00h-31h) to copy a random page of data from NAND array to the Data Register. The
RY/#BY signal goes LOW for a period of tRCBSY during the page data transfer from NAND array to the
Data Register. When RY/#BY goes HIGH, this means that the Cache Register data is available and can
be read out of the Cache Register by toggling #RE, which starts at address column 0. If it is desired to
start at a different column address, a RANDOM DATA OUTPUT (05h-E0h) command can be used to
change the column address to read out the data.
At this point in the procedure when completing the read of the desired number of bytes, one of two things
can be chosen. Continue CACHE READ (31h or 00h-31h) operations or end the CACHE READ mode
with a LAST ADDRESS CACHE READ (3Fh) command.
To continue with the read operations, execute the CACHE READ (31h or 00h-31h) command. The
RY/#BY signal goes LOW for the period of tRCBSY whil e data is copied from Data Register to the Cache
Register and the next page of data starts being copied from the NAND array to the Data Register. When
RY/#BY signal goes HIGH signifying that the Cache Register data is available, at this time #RE can start
toggling to output the desired data starting at column 0 address or using the RANDOM DATA OUPUT
command for random column address acc ess.
To terminate the CACHE READ operations a LAST ADDRESS CACH E READ (3Fh) command is issued,
RY/#BY signal goes LOW and the Data Register contents is copied to the Cache Register. At the
completion of the Data Register to Cache Register transfer, RY/#BY goes HIGH indicating data is
available at the output of the Cache Register. At this point Data can be read by toggling #RE starting at
column address 0 or using the RANDOM DATA OUPUT command for random column address access.
The device NAND array is ready for next command set.

9.1.2.1. SEQUENTIAL CACHE READ (31h)
The SEQUENTIAL CACHE READ (31h) copies the next page of data in sequence within block to the
Data Register while the previous page of data in the Cache Register is available for output. This is done
by issuing the command (31h), RY/#BY signal goes LOW and the STATUS REGISTER bits 6 and 5 =
“00” for the period of tRCBSY. When RY/#BY signal goes HIGH and STATUS REG ISTER bits 6 and 5 =
“10”, data at the Cache Register is available. The data can be read out from the Cache Register by
toggling #RE, starting address i s column 0 or by using the RANDOM DATA OUPUT command for random
column ad dress access.

9.1.2.2. RANDOM CACHE READ (00h-31h)
The RANDOM CACHE RE AD (00h-31h) will copy a particular page from NAND array to the Data Register
while the previous page of data is available at the Cache Register output. Perform this function by first
issuing the 00h command to the Command Register, then writing the four address cycles for the desired
page of data to the Address Register. Then write the 31h command to the Command Register. Note; the
column address bits are ignored.
After the RANDOM CACHE READ command is issued, RY/#BY signal goes LOW and STATUS
REGISTER bits 6 and 5 equal “00” for the period of tRCBSY. When RY/#BY signal goes HIGH and
STATUS REGISTER bits 6 and 5 equal “10”, the page data in the Cache Register is available. The data
can read out from the Cache Register by toggling #RE, the starting column address will be 0 or use the
RANDOM DATA OUTPUT (05h-E0h) command change the column address to start reading out the data.

9.1.2.3. LAST ADDRESS CACHE READ (3Fh)
The LAST ADDRESS CACHE READ (3Fh) copies a page of data from the Data Register to the Cache
Register without starting the another cache read. After writing the 3Fh command, RY/#BY signal goes
LOW and STATUS REGISTER bits 6 and 5 equals “00” for the period of tRCBSY. When RY/#BY signal
goes HIGH and STATUS REGISTER bits 6 and 5 equals “11”, the Cache R egister data is available, and
the device NAND array is in ready state. The data can read out from the Cache R egister by toggling #RE,
starting at address column 0 or RANDOM DATA OUTPUT (05h-E0h) command to change the column
address to read out t he data.

9.1.3 RANDOM DATA OUTPUT (05h-E0h)
The RANDOM DATA OUTPUT allows the selection of random column addresses to read out data from a
single or multiple of addresses. The use of the RANDOM DATA OUTPUT command is available after the
PAGE READ (00h-30h) sequence by writing the 05h command following by the 2 cycle column address
and then the E0h command. Toggling #RE will output data sequentially. The RANDOM DATA OUTPUT
command can be issued multiple times, but limited to the current loaded page.

9.1.4 READ ID (90 h )
READ ID command is comprised of two modes determined by the input address, device (00h) or ONFI
(20h) identification information. To enter the READ ID mode, write 90h to the Command Register followed
by a 00h address cycle, then toggle #RE for 5 single byte cycles, the W29N01Gx pre-programmed code
includes the Manufacturer ID, Device ID, and Product-Specific Information (see Table 9.1). If the READ
ID command is followed by 20h address, the output code includes 4 single byte cycles of ONFI identifying
information (see Table 9.2). The device remains in the READ ID mode until the next valid command is
issued.

9.1.7 READ UNIQUE ID (EDh)
The W29N01GX NAND Flash device has a method to uniquely identify eac h NAND Flash device by using
the READ UNIQUE ID command. The format of the ID is limitless, but the ID for every NAND Flash
device manufact ured, will be guarant eed to be unique.
Numerous NAND controllers typically use proprietary error correction code (ECC) schemes. In these
cases Winbond cannot protect unique ID data with factory programmed ECC. However, to ensure data
reliability, Winbond will program the NAND Flash devices with 16 bytes of unique ID code, starting at byte
0 on the page, immediately followed by 16 bytes of the complement of that unique ID. The combination of
these two actions is then repeated 16 times. This means the final copy of the unique ID will resides at
location byte 511. At this point an XOR or exclusive operation can be performed on the first copy of the
unique ID and its complement. If the unique ID is good, the results should yield all the bits as 1s. In the
event that any of the bits are 0 after the XOR operation, the procedure can be repeated on a subsequent
copy of the unique I D data.

9.2 PROGRAM operation
9.2.1 PAGE PROGRAM (80h-10h)
The W29N01Gx Page Program command will program pages sequentially within a block, from the lower
order page address to higher order page address. Programming pages out of sequence is prohibited. The
W29N01GX supports partial-page programming operations up to 4 times before an erase is required if
partitioning a page. Note; programming a single bit more than once without first erasing it is not
supported.
9.2.2 SERIAL DAT A INPUT (80h)
Page Program operation starts with the execution of the Serial Data Input command (80h) to the
Command Register, following next by inputting four address cycles and then the data is loaded. Serial
data is loaded to Cache Register with each #WE cycle. The Program command (10h) is written to the
Command Register after the serial data input is finished. At this time the internal write state controller
automatically executes the algorithms for program and verifies operations. Once the programming starts,
determining the completion of the program process can be done by monitoring the RY/#BY output or the
Status Register Bit 6, which will follow the RY/#BY s ignal. RY/#BY will stay LOW during the internal array
programming operation during the period of (tPROG). During page program operation, only two
commands are available, READ STATUS (70h) and RESET (FFh). When the device status goes to the
ready state, Status Register Bit 0 (I/O0) indicates wh ether the program operation passed (Bit0=0) or failed
(Bit0=1), (see Figure 9-10). The Command R egister remains in read stat us mode until the next command
is issued.

9.2.3 RANDOM DATA INPUT (85h)
After the Page Program (80h) execution of the initial data has been loaded into the Cache Register, if the
need for additional writing of data is required, using the RANDOM DATA INPUT (85h) command can
perform this function to a new column address prior to the Program (10h) command. The RANDOM Data
INPUT command can be issued multiple times in the same page (See Figure 9-11).
Figure 9-11 Random Data Input
9.2.4 CACHE PROGRAM (80h-15h)
CACHE PROGEAM (80h) command is started by writing the command to the Command Register. The
next writes should be four c ycles of address, and then either writing a full or partial page of input data into
the Cache Register. Issuing the CACHE PROGRAM (15h) command to the Command Register, starting
transferring data from the Cache Register to the Data Register on the rising edge of #WE and RY/#BY will
go LOW. Programming to the array starts after the data has been copied into the Data Register and
RY/#BY returns to HIGH.
When RY/#BY returns to HIGH, the next input data can be written to the Cache Register by issuing
another CACHE PROGRAM command series. The time RY/#BY goes LOW, is typical controlled by the
actual programming time. The time for the first programming pass equals the time it tak es to tr ansfer the
data from the Cache Register to the Data R egister. On the second and subsequent programming passes,
data transfer from the Cache Register to the Data Register is held until Data Register content is
programming into the NAND array.
The CACHE PROGRAM command can cross block address boundaries. RANDOM DATA INPUT (85h)
commands are permitted with CACHE PROGRAM operations. Status Register’s Cache RY/#BY Bit 6

9.3 COPY BACK operation
Copy Back operations require two command sets. Issue a READ for COPY BACK (00h-35h) command
first, then the PROGRAM for COPY BACK (85h-10h) command.
9.3.1 READ for C O PY BACK (00h-35h)
The READ for COPY BACK command is used together with the PROGRAM for COPY BACK (85h-10h)
command. To start execution, READ for COPY BACK (00h) command is written to the Command
Register, followed by the four cycles of the source page address. To start the transfer of the selected
page data from the memory array to the Cache Register, write the 35h command to the Command
Register.
After execution of the READ for COPY BACK command sequence and RY/#BY returns to HIGH mar king
the completion of the operation, the transferred data from the source page into the Cache Register may
be read out by toggling #RE. Data is output sequentially from the column address that was originally
specified with the READ for COPY BACK command. RANDOM DATA OUTPUT (05h-E0h) commands
can be issued multiple times without any limitation after READ for COPY BACK command has been
executed (see Figures 9-14 and 9-15).
At this point the device is in ready state t o acc ept the PROGRAM for COPY BACK command.
9.3.2 PROGRAM for COPY BACK (85h-10h)
After the READ for COPY BACK command operation has been completed and RY/#BY goes HIGH, the
PROGRAM for COPY BACK command can be written to the Command Register. The co mmand results in
the transfer of data from the Cache Register to the Data Register, then internal operations start
programming of the new destination page. The sequence would be, write 85h to the Command Register,
followed by the four cycle destination page address to the NAND array. Next write the 10h command to
the Command Register; this will signal the internal controller to automatically start to program the data to
new destination page. During this programming time, RY/#BY will go LOW. The READ STATUS
command can be used instead of the RY/#BY signal to determine when the program is complete. When
Status Register Bit 6 (I/O6) equals to “1”, Status Register Bit 0 (I/O0) will indicate if the operation was
successful or not.
The RANDOM DATA INPUT (85h) command can be used during the PROGRAM for COPY BACK
command for modifying the original data. Once the data is copied into the Cache Register using the
READ for COPY BACK (00h-35h) command, follow by writing the RANDOM DATA INPUT (85h)
command, along with the address of the data to be changed. The data to be changed is placed on the
external data pins. This operation copies the data into the Cache Register. Once the 10h command is
written to the Command Register, the original data and the modified data are transferred to the Data
Register, and programming of the new page commences. The RANDOM DATA INPUT command can be
issued numerous times without limitation, as necessary before starting the programming sequence with
10h command.
Since COPY BACK operations do not use external memory and the data of source page might include a
bit errors, a competent ECC scheme should be developed to check the data before programming data to
a new destination page.

9.4 BLOCK ERASE operation
9.4.1 BLOCK ERASE (60h-D0h)
Erase operations happen at the architectural block unit. This W29N01GX has 1024 erase blocks. Each
block is organized into 64 pages (2112 bytes/page,1056words/page), 132K bytes (128K + 4K
bytes)/block,66Kwords(64K+2K words)/block The BLOCK ERASE command operates on a block by
block basis.
Erase Setup command (60h) is written to the Command Register. Next, the two cycle block address is
written to the device. The page address bits are loaded during address block address cycle, but are
ignored. The Erase Confirm command (D0h) is written to the Command Register at the rising edge of
#WE, RY/#BY goes LOW and the internal controller automatically handles the block erase sequence of
operation. RY/#BY goes LOW during Block Erase internal operations f or a period of tBERS,
The READ STATUS (70h) command can be used for confirm block erase status. When Status Register
Bit6 (I/O6) becomes to “1”, block erase operation is finished. Status Register Bit0 (I/O0) will indicate a
pass/fail condi tion (see Figure 9-16).

9.5 RESET operation
9.5.1 RESET (FFh)
READ, PROGRAM, and ERASE commands can be aborted by the RESET (FFh) command during the
time the W29N01GX is in the busy state. The Reset operation puts the device into a known status. The
data that is processed in either the programming or erasing operations are no longer valid. This means
the data can be partially programmed or erased and therefore data is invalid. The Command Register is
cleared and is ready to accept next command. The Data Register and Cache Register contents are
marked invalid.
The Status Register indicates a value of E0h when #WP is HIGH; otherwise a value of 60h when #WP is
LOW. After RESET command is wr itte n to the command register, RY/#BY goes LOW for a period of tRST
(see Figure 9-17).

9.6 FEATURE OPERATION
The GET FEATUR ES (EEh) and SET FEATURES (EFh) commands are used to change the NAND Flash
device behavior from the default power on settings. These commands use a one-byte feature address to
determine which feature is to be read or modified. A range of 0 to 255 defines all features; each is
described in the features table (see Table 9.4 thru 9.7). The GET FEATURES (EEh) command reads 4-
Byte parameter in the features table (See GET FEATURES function). The SET FEATURES (EFh)
command place s the 4-Byte parameter in the features t abl e (See SET FEATURES function).
When a feature set is volatile, meaning it remains active by default until the device is powered of f. The set
feature remains t he set even if a RES ET (FFh) command is issued.

9.7 ONE TIME PROGRAMMABLE (OTP) area
The device has One-Time Programmable (OTP) memory area comprised of ten pages (2112 bytes/page).
This entire range of pages is functionally guaranteed. Only the OTP commands can access the OTP
area. When the device ships from Winbond, the OTP area is in an erase state (all bits equal “1”). In the
OTP area, programming or partial-page programming is done only by programming “0” bits. The OTP
area cannot be erased, therefore prot ecting the area only prevent furt her programming.
OTP area programming and protection have two separate commands. The OTP DATA PROGRAM (A0h-
10h) comman d is used to program an OTP page. Programming an entire page as one operation or up to
four partial-page programming sequences is available. Programming other OTP pages can be done in the
same way. The OTP DATA PROTECT (A5h-10h) command will permanently protected the OTP area
from further programming operations. The OTP DATA READ command (AFh-30h) can read the OTP area
with or without protection set. Note; there is no erase comm and for OTP area.
9.7.1 OTP DATA PROG RAM (A0h-10h)
Programming the OTP area can be done using the OTP DATA PROGRAM (A0h-10h) command. An
entire page can be programmed at once or up to four partial page programming sequences per page.
This command enables programming into the offset of an OTP page by using the two bytes of Column
Address [11:0]. If OTP area is protected by OTP DATA PROT ECT command, the programming the OTP
area will not be executed, and RY/#BY goes LOW for a period of tOBSY.
To use this command sequence, the A0h command is written to Command Register. Then issue the four
address cycles that are column address of first two cycles and range page address[0B:02] of the two
remaining cycles. Then write 1 to 2112 bytes of data, followed by program confirmation command (10h) is
written to Command Register. At this point the internal controller automatically executes the algorithms for
program and verify. The RY/#BY will go LOW during the program execution for the period of (tPROG).
Program verifi cat i on only detects 1s that are not successfully programmed to 0s.
If OTP area is not protected, RANDOM DATA INPUT commands can be used during OTP program
operations.
READ STATUS (70h) command is valid during the OTP program operation. For this operation, Status
Register Bit5 and Bit6 (I/O5 and I/O6, respectively) will follow same state as RY/#BY. If the OTP area is
protected, Status Register Bit7 (I/O7) will equal “0”; otherwise it is a “1”. After the device is in the ready
state, Status Register Bit0 (I/O0) indicates whether the operation passed or failed.

9.7.2 OTP DATA PROT ECT (A5h-10h)
To protect the data in OTP area used the OTP DATA PROTECT (A5h-10h) command. After the OTP
area is protected, the OTP area cannot be unprotected and no additional data can be programmed to the
OTP area.
To use this command, A5h is written to the Command Register. Then issues the four address cycles with
the following address code: 00h-00h-01h-00h. Finalized by writing the protect confirmation command
(10h) to the Command Register. The RY/#BY signal will go LOW during this protection process, a period
similar with page program time (tPROG).
READ STATUS (70h) command is valid during the OTP protect operation. For this operation, Status
Register Bit5 and Bit6 (I/O5 and I/O6, respectively) will indicate same state as the RY/#BY. After the
device go to the ready state, Status Register Bit0 (I/O0) indicates whet her the operation p assed or failed.

9.7.3 OTP DATA READ (AFh-30h)
This command c an read the data from OTP pages. The read capability from OTP area is available with or
without OTP area protection.
To use this command seq uence, AFh command is written to Command Register. Then issue four address
cycles comprised of the column address (first two cycles) and the range page address [0B:02] for the
remaining two cycles. Once the address is written, perform the read confirmation command (30h) to the
Command Register. The RY/#BY signal will go LOW while the OTP data is transferred fr om OTP area to
Data Register during the period of (tR). The RANDOM DATA OUTPUT command can use during OTP
data read operations. Read timing of OTP data read is the same a s the typical PAGE READ timing.
READ STATUS and RESET command are valid during OTP data read operation. For this operation,
Status Register Bit5 and Bit6 (I/O5 and I/O6, respectively) indicate the same as the RY/#BY signal.
Additional OTP pages can be read by re peating OTP DATA READ command.
If OTP DATA READ command is followed by CACHE READ operation, the RESET command has to be
executed prior to issuing the CACHE READ commands. RESET time can be up to 5µs.

10.3 Device power-up timing
The device is designed to avoid unexpected program/erase operations during power transitions. When
the device is powered on, the system has to wait until the ready state. #WP is recommended to VIL for
preventing unexpected Program and Erase operations during power-transition until Vcc is stable. The
RY/#BY will become valid after 50µs from the Vcc ramp start, and at least 10µs after Vcc reaches
minimum Vcc level. The first command has to be a RESET command after the device is powered on.
Before issuing RESET command, the system has to wait until the RY/#BY goes HIGH, or wait at least
100µs after Vcc reaches minimum Vcc. After issuing the RESET command, the busy time is 1ms
maximum. RY/#BY polling or READ STATUS command can monitor the reset busy period. After
completing this procedure, the device is ini tialized and ready for the operation (See Figure 10-1).

12. INVALID BLO CK MANAGEMENT
12.1 Invalid blocks
The W29N01GX may have initial invalid blocks when it ships from factory. Also, additional invalid blocks
may develop during the use of the device. Nvb represents the minimum number of valid blocks in the total
number of available blocks (See Table 12.1). An invalid block is defined as blocks that contain one or
more bad bits. Bl o ck 0 , block address 00h is gu aranteed to be a valid block at the time of shipment.
Parameter Symbol Min Max Unit
Valid block numbe r Nvb 1004 1024 blocks
Table 12.1 Valid B l ock Number
12.2 Initial invalid blocks
Initial invalid blocks are defined as blocks that contain one or mo re invalid bits when shipped from factory.
Although the device contains initial invalid blocks, a valid block of the device is of the same quality and
reliability as all valid blocks in the device with reference to AC and DC specifications. The W29N01GX
has internal circuits to isolate each block from other blocks and therefore, the invalid blocks will not affect
the performance of t he entire device.
Before the device is shipped from the factory, it will be erased and invalid blocks are marked. All initial
invalid blocks are marked with non-FFh at the first byte of spare area on the 1st or 2nd page. The initial
invalid block information cannot be recovered if inadvertently erased. Therefore, software should be
created to initially check for invalid blocks by reading the marked locations before perf orming any program
or erase operation, and create a table of initial invalid blocks as following f l ow chart

62 Advance Info rmation Revision A
12.3 Error in operation
Additional invalid blocks may develop in the device during its life cycle. Following the procedures herein is
required to guarantee reliable data in the device.
After each program and erase operation, check the status read to determine if the operation failed. In
case of failure, a block replacement should be done with a bad-block management algorithm. The system
has to use a minimum 1-bit ECC per 528 bytes of data to ensure data recovery.
Operation Detection and recommended procedure
Erase Status read after erase Block Replacement
Program Stat us read after program Block Replacement
Read Verify ECC ECC correction
Table 12.2 Bloc k failure
Figure 12-2 Bad block Replacement
Note:
1. An error happens in the nth page of block A during pro gr am or eras e oper ati on.
2. Copy the data in block A to the same location of block B which is valid block.
3. Copy the nth page data of block A in the buffer memory to the nth page of block B
4. Creating or updating bad block table for preventing further program or erase to block A
12.4 Addressing in program operation
The pages within the block have to be programmed sequentially from the lower order page address to the
higher order page address within the block . The lower order page is defined as the start page to program,
does not need to be page 0 in the block. Random page programming is prohibited.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
W949D6KB / W949D2KB is a high-speed Low Power double data rate synchronous dynamic
random access memory (LPDDR SDRAM), An access to the LPDDR SDRAM is burst oriented.
Consecu tiv e memor y locati on i n one pag e ca n be acc essed at a bur st l ength o f 2, 4, 8 and 16 when
a bank and row is selected by an ACTIVE command. Column addresses are automatically
generated by the LPDDR SDRAM internal counter in burst operation. Random column read is also
possible by prov idi ng i ts address at eac h cl ock cycle. Th e mul ti ple bank nature enables i nt er l eaving
among internal banks to hide the pre-cha rging t im e . By setting programmable Mode Registers, the
system can change burst length, latency cycle, interleave or sequential burst to maximize its
performance. The device supports special low power functions such as Partial Array Self Refresh
(PASR) and Automatic Temperature Compensated Self Refresh (ATCSR).

6. FUNCTION DES CRIPTION
6.1 Initialization
LPDDR SDRAM must be powered up and initialized in a predefined manner. Operations procedures other than those
specified may result in undefined operation. If there is any interruption to the device power, the initialization routine
should be followed. The steps to be followed for device initialization are listed below.
The Mode Regis ter and Extended Mode Regis ter do not have d efault values. If the y are not pr ogramm ed during the
initialization sequence, it may lead to unspecified operation. The clock stop feature is not available until the device has
been properly initialized from Step 1 through 11.
Step 1: Provide power, the device core power (VDD) and the device I/O power (VDDQ) must be brought up
sim ultaneous l y to pr e vent device latc h-up. Alt ho ugh no t r equir ed, it is rec om mended that V DD an d V D DQ
are from the same power source. Also Assert and hold Clock Enable (CKE) to a LVCMOS logic high level
Step 2: Once the sy stem has established consistent device power and CKE is driven high, it is safe to apply stable
clock.
Step 3: T here must be at leas t 200μs of valid c l ocks before an y command ma y be given t o the D RA M. Dur i n g this
time NOP or DESELECT commands must be issued on the command bus.
Step 4: Issue a PRECHARGE ALL command.
Step 5: Provide NOPs or DESELECT commands for at least tRP time.
Step 6: Is sue a n AUTO REFRESH comm and followed by NO Ps or DE SELECT comm and for at least tR FC time.
Issue the second AUTO REFRESH command followed by NOPs or DESELECT command for at least
tRFC tim e. Note as part of the initializat ion sequence t here m ust be two Auto Ref resh comm ands iss ued.
The typical flow is to issue them at Step 6, but they may also be issued between steps 10 and 11.
Step 7: Using the MRS command, program the base mode register. Set the desired operation modes.
Step 8: Provide NOPs or DESELECT commands for at least tMRD time.
Step 9: Using the MRS command, program the extended mode register for the desired operating modes. Note the
order of the base and extended mode register programmed is not important.
Step 10: Provide NOP or DESELECT commands for at least tMRD time.
Step 11: The DRAM has been properly initialized and is ready for any valid command.

6.2 Mode Register Set Operation
The Mode Register is used to define the specific mode of operation of the LPDDR SDRAM. This def inition includes
the definition of a burst length, a burst type, a CAS latency as shown in the following figure.
The Mode Register is programmed via the MODE REGISTER SET command (with BA0=0 and BA1=0) and will retain
the stored information until it is reprogrammed, the device goes into Deep Power Down mode, or the device loses
power.
Mode Register bits A0-A2 specify the burst length, A3 the type of burst (sequential or interleave), A4-A6 the CAS
latency. A logic 0 should be programmed to all the undefined addresses bits to ensure future compatibility.
The Mode Register must be loaded when all banks are idle and no bursts are in progress, and the controller must wait
the specified time tMRD before initiating any subsequent operation. Violating either of these requirements will result in
unspecified operation.
Reserved states should not be used, as unknown operation or incompatibility with future versions may result.

6.3.1 Burst Length
Read and write accesses to the LPDDR SDRAM are burst oriented, with the burst length and burst type being
programmable.
The burst length determines the maximum number of column locations that can be accessed for a given READ or
WRITE command. Burst lengths of 2, 4, or 8 locations are available for both the sequential and the interleaved burst
types.
When a READ or WRITE comm and is issued, a block of colum ns equal to the burst length is effectively selected. All
accesses for that burst take place within the block, meaning that the burst will wrap within the block if a boundary is
reached.
The block is uniquely selected by A1An when the burst length is set to two, by A2An when the burst length is set to 4,
by A3An when the burst length is set to 8 (where An is the most significant column address bit for a given
configuration). The remaining (least significant) address bit(s) is (are) used to select the starting location within the
block. The programmed burst length applies to both read and write bursts.

Notes:
1. For a burst length of two , A1-An selects the two data element block; A0 selects the first access within the block.
2. For a burst length of four, A2-An selects the four data ele ment blo ck; A0-A1 selects the first access within t he blo ck.
3. For a burst length of eight, A3-An selects the eight data element block; A0-A2 selects the first access within the blo c k.
4. For the optional burst length of sixteen, A4-An selects the sixteen data element block; A0-A3 selects the first access within the
block.
5. Whenever a boundary of th e block is reached within a given sequence, the following access wraps within the block.
When a READ or WRITE command is issued, a block of columns equal to the burst length is effectively selected. All accesses for
that burst take place wi thin the block, meaning that the burst will wrap within the block if a boundary is reached.
The block is uniquely selected by A1-An when the burst length is set to two, by A2-An when the burst length is set to 4, by A3-An
when the burst length is set to 8 and A4-An when the burst length is s et to 16(where An is the m ost s i gnificant column address
bit for a given configuration). The remaining (least significant) address bit(s) is (are) used to select the starting location within the
block. The programmed burst length applies to both read and write bursts.
6.3.3 Burst Ty pe
Accesses within a given burst may be programmed to be either sequential or interleaved; this is referred to as the
burst t ype and is selected via bit A3. T he ordering of accesses within a burst is determ ined by the burst length, the
burst ty pe and the starting column address, as shown in the previous table.
6.3.4 Read Latency
The READ la tenc y is the dela y between the reg istration of a READ comm and and the avail ability of the f irst piece of
output data. The latency should be set to 2 or 3 clocks.
If a READ command is registered at a clock edge n and the latency is 3 clocks, the first data element will be valid at n +
2 tCK + t AC . If a R E AD comm and is reg is ter e d a t a c loc k edge n a nd the l atency is 2 cloc ks, the firs t d ata element will
be valid at n + tCK + tAC.
6.4 Extended Mode Register Description
The Extended Mode Register controls functions beyond those controlled by the Mode Register; these additional
functions include output drive strength selection and Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR). PASR is effective in Self
Refresh mode only.
The Extended Mode Register is programmed via the MODE REGISTER SET command (with BA1=1 and BA0=0) and
will retain th e stor ed inf ormation unt il it is repr ogram med, the device is p ut in Dee p Pow er Down m ode, or th e devic e
loses power.
The Extended Mode Register must be loaded when all banks are idle and no bursts are in progress, and the controller
must wait the s pecified tim e tMRD before initi ating any subseq uent operation. V iolating either of these requir ements
will result in unspecified operation.
Address bits A0-A2 specify PASR, A5-A7 the Driver Strength. A logic 0 should be programmed to all the undefined
addresses bits to ensure future compatibility.
Reserved states should not be used, as unknown operation or incompatibility with future versions may result.

6.5 Status Register Read
Status Register Read (SRR) is an optional feature in JEDEC, and it is implemented in this device. With SRR, a method
is defined to read registers from the device. The encoding for an SRR command is the same as a MRS with
BA[1:0]=”01”. The address pins (A[n:0]) encode which register is to be read. Currently only one register is defined at
A[n:0]=0. The sequence to perform an SRR command is as follows:

Notes:
1.The table applies when both CKEn-1 and CKEn are HIGH, and after tXSR or tXP has been met if the previous state was Self
Refresh or Power Down.
2.DESELECT and NOP are functionally interchangeable.
3.All states and sequences not shown are illegal or reserved.
4.Current State Definitions:
Idle: The bank has been precharged, and tRP has been met.
Row A ctive: A row in the ban k has been act ivated , and tR CD has been met. N o data burs ts/acces ses and no r egister acce sses are
in progress.
Read: A READ burst has been initiated, with Auto Precharge disabled, and has not yet terminated or been terminated.
Write: A Write burst has been initiated, with Auto Precharge disabled, and has not yet terminated or been terminated.
5.Read with AP enabled and W rite with AP enabled: The read with Auto Precharge enabled or Write with Auto Precharge enabled
states can be broken into two parts: the access period and the precharge period. For Read with AP, the precharge period is
defined as if the same burst was executed with Auto Precharge disabled and then followed with the earliest possible
PRECHARGE command that still accesses all the data in the burs t. For W rite with Auto precharge, the precharge period begins
when tWR ends, with tWR measured as if Auto Precharge was disabled. The access period starts with registration of the
command and ends where the precharge period (or tRP) begins . During the precharge period, of the Read with Auto Precharge
enabled or Write with Auto Precharge enabled states, ACTIVE, PRECHARGE, READ, and W RITE commands to the other bank
may be appli ed; dur ing the a ccess per iod, on ly AC TIV E and PREC HARG E commands to the oth er ban ks may be a ppl ied. In either
case, all other related limitations apply (e.g. contention between READ data and WRITE data must be avoided).
6.AUTO REFRESH, SELF REFRESH, and MODE REGISTER SET commands may only be issued when all bank are idle.
7.A BURST TERMINATE command cannot be issued to another bank; it applies to the bank represented by the current state only.
8.READs or WRITEs listed in the Command column include READs and WRITEs with Auto Precharge enabled and READs and
WRITEs with Auto Precharge disabled.
9.Requires appropriate DM masking.
10.A WRITE command may be applied after the completion of data output, otherwise a BURST TERMINATE command must be
issued to end the READ prior to asserting a WRITE comm and.
7. OPERATION
7.1. Deselect
The DESELECT function (
CS
= high) prevents new commands from being executed by the LPDDR SDRAM. The
LPDDR SDRAM is effectively deselected. O pera tio ns already in progress are not affected.
7.2. No Operation
The NO OPERATION (NOP) command is used to perform a NOP to a LPDDR SDRAM that is selected (
CS
=Low).
This prevents unwanted commands from being registered during idle or wait states. Operations already in progress are
not affected.

7.5.10 Read to Pre-charge
A Read burst may be followed by or truncated with a PRECHARGE command to the same bank (provided Auto
Pre-charge was not activated). The PRECHARGE command should be issued X cycles after the READ command,
where X equal the number of desired data-out element pairs. This is shown in following figure. Following the
PRECHARGE command, a subsequent command to the same bank cannot be issued until tRP is met. Note that part of
the row pre-charge time is hidden during the access of the last data-out elements.
In the case of a Read being executed to completion, a PRECHARGE command issued at the optimum time (as
described above) provides the same operation that would result from Read burst with Auto Pre-charge enabled. The
disadvantage of the PR ECHARGE command is that it requires that the comm and and address buses be available at
the appropriate time to issue the command. The advantage of the PRECHARGE command is that it can be used to
truncate burs ts .

7.6.3 Write Burst (min. and max. tDQSS)
During Write bursts, the first valid data-in element will be registered on the first rising edge of DQS following the WRITE
comm and, and the subseq uent data elem ents will be registered on s uccessive e dges of DQS. T he Low stat e of DQS
between the WRITE command and the first rising edge is called the write preamble, and the Low state on DQS
following the last data-in element is called the write post-amble.
The time between the WRITE command and the first corresponding rising edge of DQS (tDQSS) is specified with a
relatively wide range - from 75% to 125% of a clock cycle. Following figure shows the two extremes of tDQSS for a burst
of 4, upon completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQs will remain high-Z and any

7.7 Precharge
The PRECH ARG E com m and is used to deact ivate th e open r ow in a part icular b ank or the ope n row in all b ank s. The
bank(s) will be available for a subsequent row access a specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is issued.
Input A10 determines whether one or all banks are to be precharged. In case where only one bank is to be precharged,
inputs BA0, BA1 select the bank. Otherwise BA0, BA1 are treated as “Don’t Care”.
Once a ba nk has been pr e c harged, it is in the id le sta t e and m us t be ac tivate d pr i or to a n y RE AD or WRITE c ommand
being issued. A PRECHARGE command will be treated as a NOP if there is no open row in that bank, or if the
previously open row is already in the process of precharging.

7.8 Auto Precharge
Auto Precharge is a feature which performs the same individual bank precharge function as described above, but
without requiring an explicit com mand. This is accomplis hed by usi ng A10 (A10 = High), to enable Aut o Prec harge in
conjunct ion wit h a spec if ic R EAD or WRITE command. A precharg e of the bank / row that is ad dres s ed with t he RE AD
or WRITE command is automatically performed upon completion of the read or write burst. Auto Precharge is non
persistent in that it is either enabled or disabled for each individual READ or WRITE command.
Auto Prechar ge ensures that a prechar ge is init iated at the ear liest vali d stage wit hin a burst. T he user m ust not issue
another command to the same bank until the precharing time (tRP) is completed. This is determined as if an explicit
PRECHARGE command was issued at the earliest possible time, as described for each burst type in the Operation
section of this specification.
7.9 Refresh Requirements
LPDDR SDR AM devices require a r efresh of all ro ws in any rolling 64m s interval. Eac h refresh is generat ed in one of
two ways: by an explicit AUTO REFRESH command, or by an internally timed event in SELF REFRESH mode. Dividing
the number of device rows into the rolling 64ms interval defines the average refresh interval (tREFI), which is a guideline
to controllers for distributed refresh timing.
7.10 Auto R efresh
AUTO R EFRESH c omm and is used during norm al op eration of the LPDDR SDR AM. This comm and is non pers istent,
so it must be issued each time a refresh is required.
The ref r es h addres s ing is g ener at ed b y the i ntern al r efresh cont ro ller. The LPDD R SDRAM req uires AUTO REFRESH
commands at an average periodic interval of tREFI.

7.11 Self Referesh
The SELF REFRESH command can be used to retain data in the LPDDR SDRAM, even if the rest of the system is
powered down. When in the Self Refresh mode, the LPDDR SDRAM retains data without external clocking. The
LPDDR SDRAM device has a built-in timer to accommodate Self Refresh operation. The SELF REFRESH command is
initiated like an AUTO REFRESH command except CKE is LOW. Input signals except CKE are “Don’t Care” during Self
Refresh. The user may halt the external clock one clock after the SELF REFRESH command is registered.
Once the command is registered, CKE must be held low to keep the device in Self Refresh mode. The clock is internally
disabled during Self Ref resh oper ation t o save p ower. The m inimum tim e that the device m ust r emain in Self Ref resh
mode is tRFC.
The proc edure f or exiting Self Ref resh requir es a se quenc e of c omm ands. Firs t, the clock m ust be s table pri or to CKE
going bac k High. Once Self Refres h Exit is re gis tere d, a de lay of at least tXS must be satis f ied bef ore a va lid com mand
can be issued to the device to allow for completion of any internal refresh in progress.
The use of Self Refresh mode introduces the possibility that an internally timed refresh event can be missed when CKE
is raised for exit from Self Refresh mode. Upon exit from Self Refresh an extra AUTO REFRESH command is
recommended.
In the Self Refresh mode, Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR) function is described in the Extended Mode Register
section.

7.12 Power Down
Power-d own is enter ed when CKE is regis tered Lo w (no ac cess es can be in prog ress ). If power -down occurs when all
banks are idle, this m ode is referr ed to as precharg e power -down; if power-dow n occurs when there is a row ac tive in
any bank, this mode is referred to as active power-down.
Entering power-down deactivates the input and output buffers, excluding CK,
CK
and CKE. In power-down mode,
CKE Low must be maintained, and all other input signals are “Don’t Care”. The minimum power-down duration is
specified by tCKE. However, power-down duration is limited by the refresh requirements of the device.
The power-down state is synchronously exited when CKE is registered High (along with a NOP or DESELECT
command). A valid command may be applied tXP after exit from power-down.
For Clock Stop during Power-Down mode, please refer to the Clock Stop subsection in this specification.

7.13 Deep Power Down
The Deep Power-Down (DPD) mode enables very low standby currents. All internal voltage generators inside the
LPDDR SDRAM are stopped and all memory data is lost in this mode. All the information in the Mode Register and the
Extended Mode Register is lost.
Deep Power-Down is entered using the BURST TERMINATE command except that CKE is registered Low. All banks
must be in id le state wit h no acti vit y on th e data bus p rior to ent ering t he DPD mode. While in th is state , CK E m ust be
held in a constant Low state.
To exit the D PD mode, CKE is taken high after the c l o ck is s table and NOP c om mands must be m aintai ned f or at least
200μs. After 200μs a com plete re-initialization is required following steps 4 through 11 as defined for the initialization
sequence.

7.14 Clock Stop
Stopping a clock during idle periods is an effective method of reducing power consumption.
The LPDDR SDRAM supports clock stop under the following conditions:
the last command (ACTIVE, READ, WRITE, PRECHARGE, AUTO REFRESH or MODE REGISTER SET) has
executed to completion, including any data-out during read bursts; the number of clock pulses per access
command depends on the device’s AC timing parameters and the clock frequency;
the related timing conditions (tRCD, tWR, tRP, tRFC, tMRD) has been met;
CKE is held High
W hen all conditions ha ve b een met, th e d evic e is e ith e r in “ id le s ta te” or “ro w act ive s tate” and cl oc k stop m ode m a y
be entered with CK held Low and
CK
held High.
Clock stop mode is exited by restarting the clock. At least one NOP command has to be issued before the next
access command may be applied. Additional clock pulses might be required depending on the system
characteristics.
The following Figure shows clock stop mode entry and exit.
Initially the device is in clock stop mode
The clock is restarted with the rising edge of T0 and a NOP on the command inputs
With T1 a valid access command is latched; this command is followed by NOP commands in order to allow for
clock stop as soon as this access command is completed
Tn is the last clock pulse required by the access command latched with T1
The clock can be stopped after Tn

Notes:
1.All voltages referenced to VSS.
2.All parameters assume proper device initialization.
3.Tests for AC timing may be conducted at nominal supply voltage levels, but the related specifications and device
operation are guaranteed for the full voltage and temperature range specified.
4.The cir cuit shown bel ow represents th e timing refer ence load us ed in defining the relevant tim ing param eters of the
part. It is not intended to be e ither a pr ecise repr esen tation of the t ypical s ystem env ironment n or a d epiction of the
actual load presented by a production tester. System designers will use IBIS or other simulation tools to correlate the
timing reference load to system environment. Manufacturers will correlate to their production test conditions
(generally a coaxial tr a ns mission line terminated at t he t ester e lect ron ic s) . For the half s trength driver with a n ominal
10pF load parameters tAC and tQH are expected to be in the same range. However, these parameters are not
subject to production test but are estimated by design / characterization. Use of IBIS or other simulation tools for
system design validation is suggested.
5.The CK/
CK
input reference voltage level (for timing referenced to CK/
CK
) is the point at which CK and
CK
cross;
the input reference voltage level for signals other than CK/
CK
is VDDQ/2.
6.The timing refer ence vol t age le vel is VDDQ /2 .
7.AC and DC input and output voltage levels are defined in the section for Electrical Characteristics and AC/DC
operating conditions.
8.A CK/
CK
differential slew rate of 2.0 V/ns is assumed for all parameters.
9.
CAS
latency definition: with CL = 3 the first data element is valid at (2 * tCK + tAC) after the clock at which the READ
command was registered ; with CL = 2 the first data element is valid at (tCK + tAC) after the clock at which the READ
command was registered
10.Min (tCL, tCH) refers to the smaller of the actual clock low time and the actual clock high time as provided to the
device (i.e. this value can be greater than the minimum specification limits of tCL and tCH)
11.tQH = tH P - tQHS, wher e tH P = minimum half c lock period f or any given cycle and is def ine d by clock high or clock
low (tCL, tCH). tQHS accounts for 1) the pulse duration distortion of on-chip clock circuits; and 2) the worst case
push-out of DQS on one transition followed by the worst case pull-in of DQ on the next transition, both of which are,
separately, due to data pin skew and output pattern effects, and p-channel to n-channel variation of the output
drivers.
12.The only time that the clock frequency is allowed to change is during clock stop, power-down or self-refresh modes.
13.The tra nsition time f or DQ, DM and DQ S inputs is m easured between VIL(DC) to VIH(AC) for rising input signals,
and VIH(DC) to VIL(AC) for falling input signals.
14.DQS, DM and DQ input slew rate is specified to prevent double clocking of data and preserve setup and hold times.
Signal transitions through the DC region must be monotonic.
15.Input slew rate 1.0 V/ns.
16.Input slew rate ≥ 0.5 V/ns and < 1.0 V/ns.
17.These parameters guarantee device timing but they are not necessarily tested on each device.
18.The transition time for address and command inputs is measured between VIH and VIL.
19.tHZ an d tLZ trans it ions occur in the sam e ac ces s ti me windows as va li d data t r ansiti ons . T hes e param ete r s are n ot
referred to a specific voltage level, but specify when the device is no longer driving (HZ), or begins driving (LZ).

20.tDQSQ consists of data pin skew and output pattern effects, and p-channel to n-channel variation of the output
drivers for any given cycle.
21.The specific requirement is that DQS be valid (HIGH, LOW, or some point on a valid transition) on or before the
corres pondi ng C K e dg e. A va lid tr ans itio n is d ef ined a s monotonic and meeting the inpu t s le w r ate s p ecif ic ations of
the device. When no writes were previously in progress on the bus, DQS will be transitioning from Hi-Z to logic
LOW. If a previous write was in progress, DQS could be HIGH, LOW, or transitioning from HIGH to LOW at this
time, depending on tDQSS.
22.The maximum limit for this parameter is not a device limit. The device operates with a greater value for this
parameter, but system performance (bus turnaround) will degrade accordingly.
23.A low level on DQS may be maintained during High-Z states (DQS drivers disabled) by adding a weak pull-down
element in the sy stem. It is recommended to turn off the weak pull-down element during read and write bursts (DQS
drivers enabled).
24.At least one clock cycle is required during tWR time when in auto precharge mode.
25.tDAL = (tWR/tCK) + (tRP/tCK): for each of the terms, if not already an integer, round to the next higher integer.
26.There must be at least two clock pulses during the tXSR period.
27.There must be at least one clock pulse during the tXP period.
28.tREFI values are dependent on densi t y and bus wi dth.
29.A maximum of 8 Refresh commands can be posted to any given LPDDR, meaning that the maximum absolute
interval between any Refresh command and the next Refresh command is 8*tREFI.
