GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29LV081 is an 8 Mbit, 3.0 volt-only Flash memory organized as 1,048,576 bytes. The device is offered in a 40-pin TSOP package. The byte-wide (x8) data appears on DQ7–DQ0. This device requires only a single, 3.0 volt VCC supply to perform read, program, and erase operations. A standard EPROM programmer can also be used to program and erase the device.
   
DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS
■ Optimized architecture for Miniature Card and
    mass storage applications
■ Single power supply operation
    — Full voltage range: 2.7 to 3.6 volt read and write
        operations for battery-powered applications
    — Regulated voltage range: 3.0 to 3.6 volt read and
        write operations and for compatibility with high
        performance 3.3 volt microprocessors
■ High performance
    — Full voltage range: access times as fast as 100 ns
    — Regulated voltage range: access times as fast
        as 90 ns
■ Ultra low power consumption (typical values at 5 MHz)
    — 200 nA Automatic Sleep mode current
    — 200 nA standby mode current
    — 10 mA read current
    — 20 mA program/erase current
■ Flexible sector architecture
    — Sixteen 64 Kbyte sectors
    — Supports full chip erase
    — Sector Protection features:
        A hardware method of locking a sector (using
        programming equipment) to prevent any
        program or erase operations within that sector
        Temporary Sector Unprotect feature allows code
        changes in previously locked sectors
■ Embedded Algorithms
    — Embedded Erase algorithm automatically
        preprograms and erases the entire chip or any
        combination of designated sectors
    — Embedded Program algorithm automatically
        writes and verifies data at specified addresses
■ Typical 1,000,000 write cycles per sector
    (100,000 cycles minimum guaranteed)
■ Package option
    — 40-pin TSOP
■ Compatibility with JEDEC standards
    — Pinout and software compatible with singlepower supply Flash
    — Superior inadvertent write protection
■ Data# Polling and toggle bits
    — Provides a software method of detecting
        program or erase operation completion
■ Ready/Busy# pin (RY/BY#)
    — Provides a hardware method of detecting
        program or erase cycle completion
■ Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
    — Suspends an erase operation to read data from,
        or program data to, a sector that is not being
        erased, then resumes the erase operation
■ Hardware reset pin (RESET#)
    — Hardware method to reset the device to reading
        array data
