• Manufacturer Part Number: m28f010
• Description: 1024k 128k X 8 Cmos Flash Memory
• Manufacturer: Intel Corporation

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Flash-memory augments EPROM functionality with
in-circuit electrical erasure and reprogramming The
M28F010 introduces a command register to manage
this new functionality The command register allows
for 100% TTL-level control inputs fixed power sup-
plies during erasure and programming and maxi-
mum EPROM compatibility
In the absence of high voltage on the V
M28F010 is a read-only memory Manipulation of the
external memory-control pins yields the standard
EPROM read standby output disable and intelli-
gent Identifier operations
The same EPROM read standby and output disable
operations are available when high voltage is ap-
plied to the V
enables erasure and programming of the device All
functions associated with altering memory con-
tents intelligent Identifier erase erase verify pro-
gram and program verify are accessed via the
command register

Commands are written to the register using standard
microprocessor write timings
serve as input to an internal state-machine which
controls the erase and programming circuitry Write
cycles also internally latch addresses and data
needed for programming or erase operations With

put data for erase and program verification
The command register is only alterable when V
at high voltage Depending upon the application the
system designer may choose to make the V
er supply switchable available only when memory
updates are desired When high voltage is removed
the contents of the register default to the read com-
mand making the M28F010 a read-only memory
Memory contents cannot be altered
