Dual operations and multiple bank architecture
The multiple bank architecture of the M29DW128G gives greater flexibility for software
developers to split the code and data spaces within the memory array. The dual operations
feature simplifies the software management of the device by allowing code to be executed
from one bank while another bank is being programmed or erased.
The dual operations feature means that while programming or erasing in one bank, read
operations are possible in another bank with zero latency.
Only one bank at a time is allowed to be in program or erase mode. However, certain
commands can cross bank boundaries, which means that during an operation only the
banks that are not concerned with the cross bank operation are available for dual
operations. For example, if a Block Erase command is issued to erase blocks in both bank A
and bank B, then only banks C or D are available for read operations while the erase is
being executed.
If a read operation is required in a bank, which is programming or erasing, the program or
erase operation can be suspended.
Also if the suspended operation was erase then a program command can be issued to
another block, so the device can have one block in erase suspend mode, one programming
and other banks in read mode.
By using a combination of these features, read operations are possible at any moment.
