MEMORY ORGANIZATION

The SST25VF080B SuperFlash memory array is orga-

nized in uniform 4-Kbyte erasable sectors with

32 Kbyte overlay blocks and 64 Kbyte overlay erasable

blocks.

DEVICE OPERATION

The SST25VF080B is accessed through the SPI

(Serial Peripheral Interface) bus compatible protocol.

The SPI bus consist of four control lines; Chip Enable

(CE#) is used to select the device, and data is

accessed through the Serial Data Input (SI), Serial

Data Output (SO), and Serial Clock (SCK).

The SST25VF080B supports both Mode 0 (0,0) and

Mode 3 (1,1) of SPI bus operations. The difference

between the two modes, as shown in Figure 4-1, is the

state of the SCK signal when the bus master is in

Stand-by mode and no data is being transferred. The

SCK signal is low for Mode 0 and SCK signal is high for

Mode 3. For both modes, the Serial Data In (SI) is sam-

pled at the rising edge of the SCK clock signal and the

Serial Data Output (SO) is driven after the falling edge

of the SCK clock signal.

Hold Operation

The HOLD# pin is used to pause a serial sequence

underway with the SPI flash memory without resetting

the clocking sequence. To activate the HOLD# mode,

CE# must be in active-low state. The HOLD# mode

begins when the SCK active-low state coincides with

the falling edge of the HOLD# signal. The HOLD mode

ends when the HOLD# signal’s rising edge coincides

with the SCK active-low state.

If the falling edge of the HOLD# signal does not coin-

cide with the SCK active-low state, then the device

enters Hold mode when the SCK next reaches the

active-low state. Similarly, if the rising edge of the

HOLD# signal does not coincide with the SCK

active-low state, then the device exits in Hold mode

when the SCK next reaches the active-low state. See

Figure 4-2 for Hold Condition waveform.

Once the device enters Hold mode, SO will be in

high-impedance state while SI and SCK can be VIL or

VIH.

If CE# is driven active high during a Hold condition, it

resets the internal logic of the device. As long as

HOLD# signal is low, the memory remains in the Hold

condition. To resume communication with the device,

HOLD# must be driven active high, and CE# must be

driven active-low. See Figure 7-3 for Hold timing.
