1.0 Introduction
This document contains the specifications for the 3 Volt Advanced+ Stacked Chip Scale Package
(Intel® Stacked-CSP) memory. These stacked memory solutions are offered in the following
combinations: 32-Mbit flash + 8-Mbit SRAM, 32-Mbit flash + 4-Mbit SRAM, 16-Mbit flash +
4-Mbit SRAM, or 16-Mbit flash memory + 2-Mbit SRAM.
1.1 Document Conventions
Throughout this document, the following conventions have been adopted.
Voltages: 2.7 V refers to the full voltage range, 2.7 V3.3V; 12 V refers to 11.4 V to 12.6 V
Main bloc k(s): 32-Kword block
Parameter block(s): 4-Kword block
1.2 Product Overview
The 3 Volt Advanced+ Stacked-CSP combines flash and SRAM into a single package.
The Intel Stacked-CSP memory provides secure low-voltage memory solutions for portable
application s. This memory family combines t wo memory technologi es , flash memo ry and SRAM,
in one package. The flash memory delivers enhanced security features, a block locking capability
that allows instant locking / unlo cking of any flas h block with zero-latency, and a 128-bit p rotection
register that enable unique device identification, to meet the needs of next generation portable
applications. Improved 12 V production programming can be used to improve factory throughput.
NOTE: 1. All words are 16 bits each.
The flash device is asymmetrically-blocked to enable system integration of code and data storage
in a single device. Each flash block can be erased independently of the others up to 100,00 0 times.
The flash has eight 8-KB parameter blocks located at either the top (denoted by -T suffix) or the
bottom (-B suffix) of the address map in order to accommodate different microprocessor protocols
for kernel code locat ion. The remaini ng flas h memory is group ed into 32-Kwo rd main bl ocks. An y
individual flash block can be locked or unlocked instantly to provide complete protection for code
or data (see Section 4.7, Flash Erase and Program Timings(1) on page 26 for details).
The flash contains both a Command User interface (CUI) and a Write State Machine (WSM). The
CUI serves as the interface between the microcontroller and the internal operation of the flash
memory. The internal WSM automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for

program and erase operations, including verification, thereby unburdening the microprocessor or
microcontroller. The flashs status register indicates the status of the WSM by signifying block
erase or word program completion and status.
Flash program and erase automation allows program and erase operations to be executed using an
industry-standard two-write command seque nce to the CUI . Program operations are perfor med in
word increments. Erase ope rations erase all locations within a b lock simultaneously. Both program
and erase operati ons can be sus pended by the system s oftware in or der to rea d from any o ther flash
block. In addition, data can be programmed to another flash block during an erase suspend.
3 Volt Advanced+ Stacked-C SP memories offer two low-power savings features: Automatic Power
Savings (APS) for flash mem ory and standby mod e for flas h and SRAM. The d evice automatically
enters APS mode following the completion of a read cycle from the flash memory. Standby mode
is initiated when th e system deselects the device by drivi ng F-CE# and S-CS1# or
S-CS2 inactive. Power savings features significantly reduce power consumption.
The flash memory can be reset by lowering F-RP# to GND. This provides CPU-memory reset
synchro nization and addition al protecti on against bus nois e that may occur during sy stem reset and
power-up/-down sequences.

DATA INPU TS/OUTPUTS : Inputs array dat a for SRAM write operations and on the second F-CE#
and F-WE# cycle during a flash Program command. Inputs commands to the flashs Command
User Interface when F-CE# and F-WE# are active. Data is internally latched. Outputs array,
configuration and status register data. The data balls float to tri-state when the chip is de-selected
or the outputs are disabled.
F-CE# INPUT FLASH CHIP ENABLE: Activates the flash internal control logic, input buffers, decoders and
sense amplifiers. F-CE# is active low . F-CE# high de-selects the flash memory device and reduces
power consumption to standby levels.
S-CS1# INPUT SRAM CHIP SELECT1: Activates the SRAM internal control logic, input buffers, decoders and
sense amplifiers. S-CS1# is active low. S-CS1# high de-selects the SRAM memory device and
reduces power consumption to standby levels.
S-CS2INPUT SRAM CHIP SELECT2: Activates the SRAM internal control logic, input buffers, decoders and
sense amplifiers. S-CS2 is active high. S-CS2 low de-selects the SRAM memory device and
reduces power consumption to standby levels.
F-OE# INPUT FLASH OUTPUT ENABLE: Enables flashs outputs through the data buffers during a read
operation. F-OE# is active low.
S-OE# INPUT SRAM OUTPUT ENABLE: Enables SRAMs outputs through the data buffers during a read
operation. S-OE# is active low.
F-WE# INPUT FLASH WRITE ENABLE: Controls writes to flashs command register and memory array. F-WE#
is active low. Addresses and data are latched on the rising edge of the second F-WE# pulse.
S-WE# INPUT SRAM WRITE ENABLE: Controls writes to the SRAM memory array. S-WE# is active low.
S-UB# INPUT SRAM UPPER BYTE ENABLE: Enables the upper bytes for SRAM (DQ8DQ15).
S-UB# is active low. S-UB# and S-LB# must be tied together to restrict x16 mode.
S-LB# INPUT SRAM LOWER BYTE ENABLE: Enables the lower bytes for SRAM (DQ0DQ7).
S-LB# is active low. S-UB# and S-LB# must be tied together to restrict x16 mode.
F-RP# INPUT
FLASH RESET/DEEP POWER-DOWN: Uses two voltage levels (VIL, VIH) to control reset/deep
power-down mode .
When F-RP# is at logic low, the device is in reset/deep power-down mode, which drives the
outputs to High-Z, resets the Write State Machine, and minimizes curr ent levels (ICCD).
When F-RP# is at logic high, the device is in stan dard operation. When F-RP# transitions from
logic-low to logic-high, the device resets all blocks to locked and defaults to the read array mode.
F-WP# INPUT
FLASH WRIT E PR OTECT: Controls the lock-down function of the flexible Locking feature.
When F-WP# is a logic low, the lock-down mechanism is enabled and blocks marked lock-
down cannot be unlocked through software.
When F-WP# is logic high, the lock-down mechanism is disabled and blocks previously
locked-down are now locked and can be unlocked and locked through software. After F-WP# goes
low, any blocks previously marked lock-down revert to that state.
See Section 6.0, Syst em Design Considerat ions on page 34 for details on block locking.

SUPPLY
FLASH PROGRAM/ERASE POWER SUPPLY: [1.65 V3.3 V or 11.4 V12.6 V] Operates as an
input at logic levels to control complete flash protection. Supplies power for accelerated flash
program and erase operations in 12 V ± 5% range. This ball cannot be left floating.
Lower F-VPP VPPLK, to protect all contents against Program and Erase commands.
Set F-VPP =F-VCC for in-system read, program and erase operations. In this configuration,
F-VPP can drop as low as 1.65 V to allow for resistor or diode drop from the system supply. Note
that if F-VPP is driven by a logic signal, VIH = 1.65 V. That is, F-VPP must remain above 1.65 V to
perform in-system flash modifications.
Raise F-VPP to 12 V ± 5% for faster program and erase in a production environment. Applying
12 V ± 5% to F-VPP can only be done for a maximum of 1000 cycles on the main blocks and 2500
cycles on the parameter blocks. F-VPP may be connected to 12 V for a total of 80 hours maximum.
F-GND SUPPLY FLASH GROUND: For all internal circuitry. All ground inputs must be connected.
S-GND SUPPLY SRAM GROUND: For all internal circuitry. All ground inputs must be connected.

2.0 Principles of Operation
The flash memory utilizes a CUI and automated algorithms to simplify program and erase
operations. The WSM automates program and erase operations by handling data and address
latche s, WE#, and syste m status requests.
.
2.1 Bus Operation
All bus cycles to or from the Stacked-CSP conform to standard microcontroller bus cycles. Four
control signals dictate the data f low in an d o ut o f the flash com pon ent: F-CE#, F-OE# , F-WE# and
F-RP#. Four separate control signals handle the data flow in and out of the SRAM component:
S-CS1#, S-CS2, S-OE#, and S-WE#. S- UB# and S-LB# must be ti ed toget her to restrict x16
operation. These bus operations are summarized in Table 2 and Table 3.
2.1.1 Read
The flash memory has four read modes: read array, read identifier, read status and read query.
These flash memory read modes are not dependent on the F-VPP voltage. Upon initial device
power-up or after exit from reset, the flash device automatically defaults to read array mode. F-CE#
and F-OE# must be driven active to obtain data from the flash component.

6Preliminary
The SRAM has one read mode available. S-CS1#, S-CS2, and S-OE# must be driven active to
obtain data from the SRAM device. See Table 3, Recommended Memory System Operating
Mode Summary on page 6 for a summary of operations.
NOTES:
1. Signals S-UB# and S-LB# must be tied together.
2. Two devices may not drive the memory bus at the same time.
3. Allowable flash read modes include read array, read query, read configuration, and read status.
4. S RAM is enabled and/or disabled with the logical function: S-CS1# OR S-CS2
5. Outputs are dependent on a separate device controlling bus outputs.
6. Modes of the flash and SRAM can be interleaved so that while one is disabled, the other controls outputs.
7. T he SRA M may be placed into data retention mode by lowering the S-VCC to the VDR range, as specified.
Simultaneous operations can exist, as long as the operations are interleaved such that only one
device attempts to contr ol the bus outputs at a time.
2.1.2 Output Disable
With F-OE# and S-OE# inactive, the Stacked-CSP outputs signals are placed in a high-impedance
state.
2.1.3 Standby
With F-CE# and S-CS1# or S-CS2 inactive, the Stacked-CSP enters a standby mode, which
substantially reduces device power consumption. In standby, outputs are placed in a high-
impedance state independent of F-OE# and S-OE#. If the flash is deselected during a program or
erase operation, the flash continues to consume active power until the program or erase operation is
complete.

off and outputs are placed in a high-impedance state.
After return from reset, a time tPHQV is required until outputs are valid, and a delay (tPHWL or
tPHEL) is required before a write sequence can be initiated. After this wake-up interval, normal
operation is restored. The device defaults to read array mode, the status register is set to 80h, and
the read configuration register defaults to asynchronous reads.
If RP# is taken low du ring a blo ck erase or p rogram operation , the operation will be abort ed and the
memory contents at the aborted location are no longer valid.
2.1.5 Write
Writes to flash take place when both F-CE# and F-WE# are low and F-OE# is high. Writes to
SRAM take place when both S-CS1# and S-WE# are low and S-OE# and S-SC2 are high.
Commands are written to the flash memorys Command User Interface (CUI) using standard
microprocessor write timings to control flash operations. The CUI does not occupy an addressable
memory location within the flash component. The address and data buses are latched on the rising
edge of the second F-WE# or F-CE# pulse, whichever occurs first. (See Figure 6 and Figure 7 for
read and write waveforms.)
3.0 Flash Memory Modes of Operation
The flash memory ha s fo ur read modes: read array, read configuration, read s tatus, and read query.
The write modes are program and erase. Three additional modes (erase suspend to program, erase
suspend to read and program suspend to read) are available only during suspended operations.
These modes are reached using the commands summarized in Table 5, Flash Memory Command
Definitions on page 11.
3.1 Read Array (FFh)
When F-RP # transitions from VIL (reset) to VIH, the device defaults to read array mode and will
respond to the read control in puts without any additional CUI commands.
In addition, the address of the desired location must be applied to the address balls. If the device is
not in read array mode, as would be the case after a program or erase operation, the Read Array
command (FFh) must be written to the CUI before array reads can take place.
3.2 Read Identifier (90h)
The read configuration mode outpu ts the manufacturer/device identifier. The device is switched to
this mode by writing the read configuration command (90h). Once in this mode, read cycles from
addresses shown in Table 4, Read Configuration Table on page 8 retrieve the specified
information. To return to read array mode, write the Read Array command (FFh ) .
28F1602C3, 28F1604C3, 28F3204C3, 28F3208C3
8Preliminary
The Read Configuration mode outputs three types of information: the manufacturer/device
identifier, the block locking status, and the protection register. The device is switched to this mode
by writing the Read Configuration command (90h). Once in this mode, read cycles from addresses
shown in Table 4 retrieve the specified information. To return to read array mode, write the Read
Array command (FFh).
NOTES:
1. See Section 3.7 for valid lock status outputs.
2. XX specifies the block address of lock configuration being read.
3. See Section 3.8 for protection register information.
Other locations within the configuration address space are reserved by Intel for future use.
3.3 Read Status Register (70h)
The status register indicates the status of device operations, and the success/failure of that
operation. The Read Status Register (70h) command causes subsequent reads to output data from
the status register until anothe r comm and is issued. To retur n to reading from the array, issue a
Read Array (FFh) command.
The status register bits are output on DQ 0DQ7. The up per by t e, DQ8DQ15, outpu ts 00h d ur in g a
Read Status Register command .
The contents of the status register are latched on the fallin g edge of F-OE# or F-C E #, whichever
occurs last. This prevents possible bus errors which might occur if status register contents change
while being read. F-CE# or F-OE# must be toggled with each subsequent status read, or the status
register will not indicate completion of a program or erase operation.
When the WSM is active, SR.7 will indicate the status of the WSM; the remaining bits in the status
register indicate whether the WSM was successful in performing the desired operation (see
Table 6, Flash Memory Status Regis t er Defin iti on on page 12).
3.3.1 Clear Status Register (50h)
The WSM sets statu s b its 1 through 7 to 1, and clears bits 2, 6 and 7 to 0, but cannot clear
status b its 1 or 3 thro ugh 5 to 0. Because bits 1, 3, 4 and 5 indicate various error conditions, these
bits can only be cleared through the use of the Clear Status Register (50h) command. By allowing
the system software to control the resetting of these bits, several operations may be performed
(such as cumulatively pro gramming several addresses or erasing multiple blocks in sequence)

before reading the status register to determine if an error occurred during that series. Clear the
status register before beginning ano ther command or sequence. Note that the Read Array command
must be issued before data can b e read fr om the mem ory array. Resetting the device also clears the
status register.
3.4 Read Query (98h)
The read query m ode outputs Common Flash Interface (CFI) data when the device is read. This can
be accessed by writing the Read Query Command (98h). The CFI data structure contains
information such as block size, density, command set and electrical specifications. Once in this
mode, read cycles from addresses shown in Appendix B retrieve the specified information. To
return to read array mode, write the Read Array command (FFh).
3.5 Word Program (40h/10h)
Programming is executed using a two-write sequence. The Program Setup command (40h) is
written to the CUI followed by a second write which specifies the address and data to be
programmed. The WSM will execute a sequence of internally timed events to program desired bits
of the addressed location, then verify the bits are sufficiently programmed. Programming the
memory results in specific bits within an address location being changed to a 0. If the user
attempts to program 1s, the memory cell contents do not change and no error occurs.
The status register indicates programming status: while the program sequence executes, status bit 7
is 0. The status register can be polled by toggling either F-CE# or F-OE#. While programming,
the only valid commands are Read Status Register, Program Suspend, and Program Resume.
When programming is complete, the program status bits should be checked. If the programming
operation was unsuccessful, bit SR.4 of the status register is set to indicate a program failure. If
SR.3 is set then F-VPP was not within acceptable limits, and the WSM did not execute the program
command. If SR.1 is set, a program operation was attempted on a locked block and the operation
was aborted.
The status register should be cleared before attempting the next operation. Any CUI instruction can
follow after programming is completed; however, to prevent inadvertent status register reads, be
sure to reset the CUI to read array mode.
3.5.1 Suspending and Resuming Program (B0h/D0h)
The Program Suspend command halts an in-progress progr am ope ratio n so tha t data ca n be read
from other locations of memory. Once the programming process starts, writing the Program
Suspend command to the CUI requests that the WSM suspend the program sequence (at
predetermined poin ts in t he program al gorit hm). The device cont inues t o outpu t stat us re gister data
after the Program Susp end command is written. Polling status register bits SR.7 and SR.2 will
determine when the program operation ha s b een s uspended (both will be set to 1). tWHRH1/
tEHRH1 specify the program suspend latency.
A Read Array command can be written to the CUI to read data from any block other than the
suspended block. The only other valid commands, while program is suspended, are Read Status
Register, Read Configuration, Read Query, and Program Resume. After the Program Resume
command is written to the flash memo r y, the WSM will continue with the programming process
and status register bits SR.2 and SR.7 will automatically be cleared. The device automatically

10 Preliminary
outputs status register data when read (see Appendix A, Program Suspend/Resume Flowcharts)
after the Program Resume command is written. F-VPP must remain at the same F-VPP level used
for program whil e i n program suspend mode. F-RP# must a lso remain at VIH.
3.6 Block Erase (20h)
To erase a block, write the Erase Set-up and Erase Confirm commands to the CUI, along with an
address identifying the block to be erased. This address is latched internally when the Erase
Confirm command is issued. Block erasure results in all bits within the block being set to 1. Only
one block can be erased at a time. The WSM will execute a sequence of internally timed events to
program all bits within the block to 0, erase all bits within the block to 1, then verify that all
bits within the block are sufficiently erased. While the erase executes, status bit 7 is a 0.
When the status register indicates that erasure is complete, check the erase status bit to verify that
the erase operation was successful. If the Erase operation was unsuccessful, SR.5 of the status
register will be set to a 1, indicating an erase failure. If F-VPP was not within acceptable limits
after the Erase Confirm command was issued, the WSM will not execute the erase sequence;
instead, SR.5 of the status register is set to indicate an erase error, and SR.3 is set to a 1 to
ide ntify that F- VPP supply voltage was not within acceptable limits.
After an erase operation, clear the status register (50h) before attempting the next operation. Any
CUI instruction can follow after erasure is completed; however, to prevent inadvertent status
register reads, it is advisable to place the flash in read array mode after the erase is complete.
3.6.1 Suspending and Resuming Erase (B0h/D0h)
Since an erase oper ation r equires on the or der of seconds to comp lete, an Eras e Sus pend comm and
is provided to allow erase-sequence interruption in order to read data from or program data to
another block in memory. Once the erase sequence is started, writing the Erase Suspend command
to the CUI suspends the erase sequence at a predetermined point in the erase algorithm. The status
register will indicate if/when the erase operation has been suspended. Erase suspend latency is
specified by tWHRH2/tEHRH2.
A Read Array/Program comm a nd can no w be written to the CUI to read/program data from/to
blocks other than that which is suspended. This nested Program command can subsequently be
suspended to read yet another location. The only valid commands while erase is suspended are
Read Status Register, Read Configuration, Read Query, Program Setup, Program Resume, Erase
Resume, Lock Block, Unlock Block and Lock-Down Block. During erase suspend mode, the chip
can be placed in a pseudo-standby mode by taking F-CE# to VIH. This reduces active current
consumption.
Erase Resume continu es the erase sequence wh en F-CE# = VIL. As with the end o f a standard erase
operation, the status register must be read and cleared before the next instruction is issued.

3.7 Instant, Individual Block Locking
The instant, individual block locking feature that allows any flash block to be locked or unlocked
with no latency, which enables instant code and data protection.
Thi s locking offe rs two l evels of prot ection. The fi rst level allows software-only control of block
locking (useful for data bl ocks th at chang e frequently), while the second level requires hardware
interaction before locking can be changed (useful for code blocks that change infrequently).
The following sections will discuss the operation of the locking system. The term state [XYZ]
will be used to specify locking states; e.g., state [001], where X = value of WP#, Y = bit DQ1 of
the Block Lock status register, and Z = bit DQ0 of the Block Lock status register. Table 8, Block
Locking State Transitions on page 15 defines all of these possible locking states.

All blocks are locked when powered-up, and can be un lo cked or locked with the Unlock and Lock
commands.
The Lock-Down command locks a block and prevents it from being unlocked when WP# = 0.
When WP# = 1, Lock-Down is overridden and commands can unlock/lock locked-down
blocks.
When WP# returns to 0, locked-down b locks return to Lock -Down.
Lock-Down is cleared only when the device is reset or powered-down.
The locking status of each bloc k can set to Locked, Unlocked, and Lock-Down, each of which will
be described in the following sections. A comprehensive state table for the locking functions is
shown in Table 8 on page 15, and a flowchart for lock ing oper atio ns is shown in Figure 19 on
page 44.
3.7.2 Locked State
The default status of all blocks upon power-up or reset is locked (states [001] or [101]). Locked
blocks are fully protected from alteration. Any program or erase operations attempted on a locked
block will return an error on bit SR.1 of the status register. The status of a locked block can be
changed to Unlocked or Lock-Down using the appropriate software commands. Unlocked blocks
can be locked issuing the Lock comm and sequence, 60h followed b y 01h.
3.7.3 Unlocked State
Unlocked blocks (states [000], [100], [110]) can be programmed or erased. All unlocked blocks
return to the Locked state when the device is reset or powered down. The status of an unlocked
block can be changed to Locked or Locked-Down using the appropriate software commands. A
Locked block can be unlocked by writing the Unlock command sequence, 60h followed by D0h.
3.7.4 Lock-Down State
Blocks that are Locked-Down (state [011]) are protected from program and erase operations (just
like Locked blocks), bu t their protection status cannot be changed using software comm ands alone.
A Locked or Unlock ed block can be L ocked-do wn by writing the Lock -Down comman d sequence,
60h followed by 2Fh. Locked-Down blocks revert to the Locked state when the device is reset or
powered down.
The Lock-Down function is dependent on the WP# input ball. When WP# = 0, bl ocks in Lock-
Down [011] are pro t ected from prog ram, er ase, and lock s tatu s changes . When WP# = 1, the Lock-
Down function is disabled ([111]) and locked-down blocks can be individually unlocked by
software command to the [110] state, where they can be erased and pr ogrammed . These blocks can
then be re-locked [111] and unlocked [110] as desired while WP# remains high. When WP# goes
low, blocks that were previously locked-down return to the Lock-Down state [011] regardless of
any changes made while WP# was high. Device reset or power-down resets all blocks, including
those in Lock-Down, to Locked state.
3.7.5 Reading a Blocks Lock Status
The lock status of every block can be read in the configuration read mode of the device. To enter
this mode, write 90h to the device. Subsequent reads at Block Address + 00002 will output the lock
status of that block. The lock status is represented by the least significant outputs, DQ0 and DQ1.
DQ0 indicates the Block Lock/Unlock status and is set by the Lock command and cleared by the
28F1602C3, 28F1604C3, 28F3204C3, 28F3208C3
14 Preliminary
Unlock command. It is also automatically set when entering Lock-Down. DQ1 indicates Lock-
Down status and is set by the Lock-Down command. It cannot be cleared by software, only by
device reset or power-down.
3.7.6 Locking Operation during Erase Suspend
Changes to block lock status can be performed during an erase suspend by using the standard
locking command s equen ces to u nlock, lock , o r lo ck-d own a block. This is us eful in the case when
another block needs to be updated while an erase operation is in progress.
To change block locking during an erase operation, first write the erase suspend command (B0h),
then check the status register until it indicates th at the erase operation has been suspended. Next
write the desired lock command sequence to a block and the lock status will be changed. After
completing any desired lock, read, or program operations, resume the erase operation with the
Erase Resume command (D0h).
If a block is locked or locked-down during a suspended erase of the same block, the locking status
bits will be changed immediately , b ut when the erase is resumed, the erase operation will complete.
Locking operations cannot be performed during a program suspend.
3.7.7 Status Register Error Checking
Using nested locking or program command sequences during erase suspend can introduce
ambiguity into status register results.
Since locking changes are performed using a two cycle command sequence, e.g., 60h followed by
01h to lock a block, following the Configuration Setup command (60h) with an invalid command
will produce a lock command error (SR.4 and SR.5 will be set to 1) in the status register. If a lock
command error occurs during an erase suspend, SR.4 and SR.5 will be set to 1, and will remain at 1
after the erase is resumed. When erase is complete, any possible error during the erase cannot be
detected via the status register because of the previous locking command error.
A similar situation happens if an error occurs during a program operation error nested within an
erase suspend.

NOTES:
1. “–” indicates no change in the current state.
2. In this table, the notation [XYZ] denotes the locking st ate of a block, where X = WP#, Y = DQ1, and Z = DQ0.
The current locking state of a block is defined by the state of WP# and the two bits of the block lock status
(DQ0, DQ 1). DQ0 indicates if a block is locked (1) or unlocked (0). DQ1 indicates if a block has been locked-
down (1) or not (0).
3. At power-up or device reset, all blocks default to Locked state [001] (if WP# = 0). holding WP# = 0 is the
recommended default.
4. T he Erase/Program Allowed? column shows whether erase and program operations are enabled (Yes ) or
disabled (No) in that blocks current locking state.
5. T he Lock Command Input Result [Next State] column shows the result of writing the three locking
commands (Lock, Unlock, Lock-Down) in the current locking state. For example, Goes To [001] would mean
that writing the command to a block in the current locking state would change it to [001].
6. The 128-bits of the protection register are divided into two 64-bit segment s. One of the segments is
programmed at the Intel factory with a unique 64-bit number, which is unchangeable. The other segment is
left blank for customer designs to program as desired. Once the customer segment is programmed, it can be
locked to prevent reprogramming.
3.8 128-Bit Prote ction Register
The 3 Volt Advanced+ Stacked-CSP architecture includes a 128-bit protection register than can be
used to increase the security of a system design. For example, the number contained in the
protection register can be used to mate the flash component with other system components such
as the CPU or ASIC, preventin g device substitution.
3.8.1 Read ing the Protection Register
The protection register is read in the configuration read mode. The device is switched to this mode
by writing the Read Con figur ation co mmand (90 h). Once in this mo de, r ead cycles fro m ad dres ses
shown in Appendix E retrieve the specified information . To return to read array mode, write the
Read Array command (FFh).
3.8.2 Programming the Protection Register (C0h)
The protection register bits are programmed using the two-cycle Protection Program command.
The 64-bit number is programmed 16 bits at a time for word-wide parts. First write the Protection
Program Setup command, C0h. The next write to the device will latch in address and data and
program the specified location. The allowable addresses are shown in Appendix E. See Figure 20,
Protection Register Programming Flowchart on page 45.

16 Preliminary
Any attempt to address Protection Program commands outside the defined protection register
address space will result in a status register error (program error bit SR.4 will be set to 1).
Attempting to progra m or to a previous ly locked protection register segment will result in a statu s
register error (program error bit SR .4 and lock error bit SR.1 will be set to 1).
3.8.3 Locking the Protection Register
The user -progr ammable s egment of t he protect ion regi ster is l ockable by prog ramming Bi t 1 of th e
PR-LOCK location to 0. Bit 0 of this location is programmed to 0 at the Intel factory to protect the
unique device number . This bit is set using the Protection Program command to program FFFDh to
the PR-LOCK location. After thes e bits have been progr ammed, no further changes can be made to
the values stored in th e protect ion r egis ter. A Protection Program command to locked word s will
result in a status register error (program error bit SR.4 and Lock Error bit SR.1 will be set to 1).
The protection register lockout state is not reversible.

3.9 Additional Flash Features
Intel 3 Volt Advanced+ Stacked-CSP products provide in-system programming and erase in the
1.65 V3.3 V range. For fast production programming, it also includes a low-cost, backward-
compatible 12 V programming feature.
3.9.1 Improved 12 Volt Production Programming
When F-VPP is between 1.65 V and 3.3 V, all program and erase current is drawn through the
F-VCC signal. Note that if F-VPP is driven by a log i c sig nal, VIH min = 1.6 5 V. T hat i s , F-VPP must
remain above 1. 65 V to perform in -system f lash modificati ons. When F-V PP is connected to a 12 V
power supply, the device draws program and erase current directly from the F-VPP signal. This
eliminates the need for an external switching transistor to control the voltage F-VPP. Figure 12,
Example Power Supply Configurations on page 35 shows examples of how the flash power
su pplies can be configured for various usage models.

Preliminary 17
The 12 V F-VPP mode enhances programming performance during the short period of time
typically fo und in manufactur ing processes ; however , it is not intended for ext ended use. 12 V may
be applied to F-VPP during program and erase operations for a maximum of 1000 cycles on the
main blocks and 2500 cycles on the parameter blocks. F-VPP may be connected to 12 V for a total
of 80 hours maximum. Stressing the device beyond these limits may cause permanent damage.
3.9.2 F-VPP VPPLK for Complete Protection
In addition to the flexible block locking, the F-VPP programming voltage can be held low for
absolute hardware write protect ion of all blocks in the flash device. When F-VPP is below VPPLK,
any program or er ase operation will res ult in a error , promp ting the corresponding s tatus register bit
(SR.3) to be set.

4.10 SRAM AC CharacteristicsWrite Op erations(1 , 2)
NOTES:
1. See Figure 10, “AC Waveform: SRAM Write Operations” on page 32 .
2. A write occurs during the overlap (tWP) of low S-CS1# and low S-WE#. A write begins when S-CS1# goes low
and S-WE# goes low with asserting S-UB# or S-LB# for single byte operation or simultaneously asserting
S-UB# and S-LB# for double byte operation. A write ends at the earliest transition when S-CS1# goes high
and S-WE# goes high. The tWP is measured from the beginning of write to the end of write.
3. tAS is measured from the address valid to the beginning of write.
4. tWP is measured from S-CS1# going low to end of write.
5. tWR is measured from the end of write to the address change. tWR applied in case a write ends as S-CS1# or
S-WE# going high.

5.0 Migration Guide Information
Typically, it is important to discuss footprint migration compati bility between a new product and
existing products. In this specific case, the S tacked CSP allows the system designer to remove two
separate memory footprints for individual flash and SRAM and replace them with a single
footprint, thus resulting in an overall reduction in board space required. This implies that a new
pri nted circuit board would b e used to take a dvantage of t his feature.
Since the flash in Stacked-CSP shares the same features as the Advanced+ Boot Block Features,
conversions from the Advanced Boot Bl ock are described in AP-658 D esign ing for Upgrade t o the
Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory, order number 292216.
Please contact your local Intel representation for detailed information about specific Flash +
SRAM system migrations.

6.0 Sys tem Design Considera tions
This section contains information that would have been contained in a product design guide in
earlier generations. In an effort to simplify the amount of documentation, relevant system design
considerations have been combined in to this document.
6.1 Background
The Intel Advanced+ Boot Block Stacked chip scale package combines the features of the
Advanced+ Boot Block flash memory architecture with a low-power SRAM to achieve an overall
reduction in system board space. This enables applications to integrate security with simple
software and hardware configurations, while also combining the system SRAM and flash into one
common footp rint. This section di scusses how to tak e full advantage of the 3 Volt Advanced+ Boot
Block Stacked Chip Scale Package.
6.1.1 Flash + SRAM Footprint Integration
The Stacked Chip Scale Package memory solution can be used to replace a subset of the memory
subsystem within a design. Where a previous design may have used two separate footprints for
SRAM and Flash, you can now replace with the industry-standard I-ballout of the Stacked CSP
device. This allows for an overall reduction in board space, which allows the design to integrate
both the flash and the SRAM into one component.
6.1.2 Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory Features
Advanced+ Boot Block adds the following new features to Intel Advanced Boot Block
architecture:
Instant, individual block locking provides software/hardware controlled, independent locking/
unlocking of any block with zero latency to protect code and data.
A 128-bit Protection Register enables system security implementations.
Improved 12 V production programming simplifies the system configuration required to
implement 12 V fast programming.
Common Flash Interface ( CFI) provides c omponent infor mation on the chip to allow s oftware-
independent device upgr ades.
For more information on specific advantages of the Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory, please
see AP-658 Designing with the Advanced+ Boot Block Flash Memory Architecture.
6.2 Flash Control Considerations
The flash device is protected against accidental block erasure or programming during power
transitions. Power supply sequencing is not requir ed, s ince the device is indifferent as to which
power supply, F-VPP or F-VCC, powers-up first. Example flash power supply configurations are
shown in Figu re 12, Example Power Supply Configurations on pa ge 35.

Preliminary 35
6.2.1 F-R P# Connected to System Reset
The use of F-RP # durin g sys tem reset is import ant with aut omated pr ogr am/erase devi ces sin ce the
system expects to read from the flash memory when it comes out of reset. If a CPU reset occurs
without a flash memory reset, proper CPU initialization will not occur because the flash memory
may be providing status information instead of array data. Intel recommends connecting F-RP# to
the system CPU RESET# signal to allow prope r CPU/f lash initialization following system reset.
System designers must guard against spurious writes when F-VCC voltages are above VLKO. Since
both F-WE# and F-CE# must be low fo r a command write, driving either sign al to VIH will inhibit
writes to the device. The CUI architecture provides additional protection since alteration of
memory contents can only occur after successful completion of the two-step command sequences.
The device is also disabled until F-R P# is brou ght to VIH, regardless of the state of its control
inputs.
By holding the device in reset (F-RP# connected to system PowerGood) during power-up/down,
invalid bus conditions during power-up can be masked, providing yet another level of memory
protection.
6.2.2 F-VCC, F-VPP and F-RP# Transition
The CUI latches commands as issued by system software and is not altered by F-VPP or F-CE#
transitions or WSM actio ns. Its default state upon power-up, after exit from reset mode or after
F-VCC transitions above VLKO (Lockout voltage), is read array mode.
After any program or block erase operation is complete (even after F-VPP transitions down to
VPPLK), the CUI must be reset to read array mode via the Read Array command if access to the
flash memory array is desired.
NOTE: 1. A resistor can be used if the F-VCC supply can sink adequate current based on resistor value.

6.3 Noise Reductio n
Stacked- CSP memorys power switching character istics require careful dev ice decoupling. System
designers should consider three supply current issues for both the flash and SRAM:
1. Standby current levels (ICCS)
2. Read current levels (ICCR)
3. Transient peaks produced by falling and rising edges of F-CE#, S-CS1#, and S-CS2.
T ransient curr ent magnitudes de pend on the device outputs capacitive and inductive loading. Two-
line control and proper decoupling capacitor selection will suppress these transient voltage peaks.
Each device should have a capacitors between individual power (F-VCC, F-VCCQ, F-VPP, S-
VCC)and ground (GND) signals. Hig h-frequency, inherently low-inductance capacito rs sh ould be
placed as close as possible to the package leads.
Noise issues within a system can cause devices to operate erratically if it is not adequately filtered.
In order to avoid any noise interaction issues within a system, it is recommended that the design
contain the appropriate number of decoupling capacitors in the system. Noise issues can also be
reduced if leads to the device are kept very short, in order to reduce inductance.
Decoupling capacitors between VCC and VSS reduce voltage spikes by supplying the extra current
needed during switching. Placing these capacitors as close to the device as possible reduces line
inductance. The capacitor s should be low inductance capacitor s; surface mount capacitors typ ically
exhibit lower inductance.
It is highly recommended that systems use a 0.1 µf capacitor for each of the D9, D10, A10 and E4
grid ballout locations (see Figure 1, 68-Ball Stacked Chip Scale Package on page 2 for ballout).
These capacitors are necessary to avoid undesired conditions created by excess noise. Smaller
capacitors can be used to decouple higher frequencies.

NOTES:
1. Substrate connections refer to ballout locations shown in Figure 1, 68-Ball Stacked Chip Scale Package on
page 2.
2. 0.1µf capacitors should be used with D9, D10, A10and E4.
3. S ome SRA M devices do not have a S-VSSQ; in this case, this pad is a S-VSS.
4. S ome SRA M devices do not have a S-VSSQ; in this case, this pad is a VCC.
6.4 Simul taneous Operation
The term simultaneous operation in used to describe the ability to read or write to the SRAM while
also pr ogrammi ng or erasing flash . I n addit ion, F- CE# , S-CS1# and S- CS2 should not be enable d at
the same time. (See Table 2, 3 Volt Advanced+ Stacked-CSP Ball Descriptions on page 3 for a
summary of reco mmended operating modes.) Simult aneous oper ation of the can be su mmarized by
the following:
SRAM read/write are during a Flash Program or Erase Operation are allowed.
Simultaneous Bus Operations between the Flash and SRAM are not allowed (because of bus
contention).

6.4.1 SRAM Operation during Flash Busy
This functionality prov ides the ability to use both the flash and the SRAM at the same time
within a system, similar to the operation of two devices with separate footprints. This operation can
be achieved by following the appro priate timing constraints within a syst em.
6.4.2 Simultaneous Bus Operations
Operations that requ ire both the SRAM and Flash to be in active mode ar e disallowe d. An example
of these cases would include simultaneous reads on both the flash and SRAM, which would result
in contention for the data bus. Finally, a read of one device while attempting to write to the other
(similar to the conditions of direct memory access (DMA) operation) are also not within the
recommended operating conditions. Basically, only one memory can drive the outputs out the
device at one given point in time.
6.5 Printed Circuit Board Notes
The Intel Stacked CSP will save significant space on your PCB by combining two chips into one
BGA style package. Intel Stacked CSP has a 0.8 mm pitch that can be routed on your Printed
Circuit Board with conventional design rules. T race widths of 0.127 mm (0.005 inches) are typical.
Unused balls in the center of the package are not populated to further increase the routing options.
Standard surface mount process and equipment can be used for the Intel Stacked CSP.
NOTE: Top View
6.6 System Design Notes Summary
The Advanced+ Boot Block Stacked CSP allows higher levels of memory component integration.
Different power supply configurations can be used within the system to achieve different
objectives. At least three differ ent 0.1 µf capacitors shou ld be used to decouple the devices within a
system. SRAM reads or writes during a flash program or erase are supported operations. Standard
printed circuit board technology can be used.

Appendix B CFI Query Structure
This appendix defines the data structure or database returned by the Common Flash Interface
(CFI) Query command. System software should parse this structure to gain critical information
such as block size, density, x8/x16, and electrical specifications. Once this information has been
obtained, the software will know which command sets to use to enable flash writes, block erases,
and otherwise control the flash component. The Query is part of an overall specification for
multiple command set and control interface descriptions called Common Flash Interface, or CFI.
B.1 Quer y Structure Output
The Query database allows system software to gain information for controlling the flash
component. This section describ es the devices CFI-compliant interface that allows the host system
to access Query data.
Query data are always presented on the lowest-order data outputs (DQ0-7) only. The numerical
offset value is the address relative to the maximum bus width supported by the device. On this
family of devices, the Query table device starting add ress is a 10h, which is a word address for x16
devices.
For a word-wide (x16) device, the first two bytes of the Query structure, Q and R in ASCII,
appear on the low byte at word add resses 10h and 1 1h. This CFI-compli ant device output s 00h data
on upper bytes. Thus, the device outputs ASCII Q in the low byte (DQ0-7) and 00h in the high
byte (DQ8-15).
At Query addresses containing two or more bytes of information, the least significant data byte is
presented at the lower address, and the most significant data byte is presented at the higher address .
In all of the following tables, addresses and data are represented in hexadecimal notation , so the
h suffix has been dropped. In addition, since the upper byte of word-wide devices is always
00h, the leading 00 has been dropped from the table notation and only the lower byte value is
shown. Any x16 device outputs can be assumed to have 00h on the upper byte in this mode.

B.2 Query Structure Overview
The Query command causes the flash component to display the Common Flash Interface (CFI)
Query structure or database. The structure sub-sections and address locations are summarized
below.
NOTES:
1. Ref er to the Query Structure Output section and offset 28h for the detailed definition of offset address as a
function of device bus width and mode.
2. B A = The beginning location of a Block Address (e.g., 08000h is the beginning location of block 1 when the
block size is 32 Kword).
3. Offset 15 defines P which points to the Primary Intel-specific Extended Query Table.

B.3 Block Lock Status Register
The Block St atus Register indicates whether an eras e operation completed successf ully or wheth er
a given block is locked or can be accessed for flash program/erase operations.
Block Erase S tatus (BSR.1) allows system software to determine the success o f the last block eras e
operation. BSR.1 can be used just after power-up to verify that the VCC supply was not
accidentally removed during an erase operation. This bit is only reset by issuing another erase
operation to the block. The Block Status Register is accessed from word address 02h within each
block.
NOTE: 1. BA = The beginning location of a Block Address (i.e., 008000h is the beginning location of block 1 in
word mode.)
B.4 CFI Query Identification String
The Identification String provides verification that the component supports the Common Flash
Interface specification. It also indicates the specification version and supported vendor-specified
command set(s).
