S29GLxxxM Product Overview

S29GL256M, S29GL128M, S29GL064M, S29GL032M

256 Megabit, 128 Megabit, 64 Megabit, and 32Megabit, 3.0 Volt-only Page Mode Flash Memory featuring 0.23 um MirrorBit process technology

General Description
The S29GL256/128/064/032M family of devices are 3.0 V single power Flash memory manufactured using 0.23 um MirrorBit technology. The S29GL256M is a 256 Mbit, organized as 16,777,216 words or 33,554,432 bytes. The S29GL128M is a 128 Mbit, organized as 8,388,608 words or 16,777,216 bytes. The S29GL064M is a 64 Mbit, organized as 4,194,304 words or 8,388,608 bytes. The S29GL032M is a 32 Mbit, organized as 2,097,152 words or 4,194,304 bytes. De-pending on the model number, the devices have an 8-bit wide data bus only, 16- bit wide data bus only, or a 16-bit wide data bus that can also function as an 8- bit wide data bus by using the BYTE# input. The devices can be programmed ei-ther in the host system or in standard EPROM programmers.

Software Features
  • Program Suspend & Resume: read other sectors before programming operation is completed
  • Erase Suspend & Resume: read/program other sectors before an erase operation is completed
  • Data# polling & toggle bits provide status
  • CFI (Common Flash Interface) compliant: allows host system to identify and accommodate multiple flash devices
Return to Top


Hardware Features
  • Sector Group Protection: hardware-level method of preventing write operations within a sector group
  • Temporary Sector Unprotect: VID-level m ethod of charging code in locked sectors
  • WP#/ACC input accelerates programming time (when high voltage is applied) for greater throughput during system production. Protects first or last sector regardless of sector protection settings
  • Hardware reset input (RESET#) resets device
  • Ready/Busy# output (RY/BY#) detects program or erase cycle completion
