GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MX29L1611G is a 16-mega bit Flash memory
organized as either 1M wordx16 or 2M bytex8. The
MX29L1611Gincludes32sectorsof64KB(65,536Bytes
or32,768words). MXIC'sFlashmemoriesofferthemost
cost-effectiveandreliableread/writenon-volatilerandom
access memory. The MX29L1611G is packaged in 42
pin PDIP.
MX29L1611G does require high input voltages for
programming. Commandsrequire11V input to determine
the operation of the device. Reading data out of the
device is similar to reading from an EPROM.
MXICFlashtechnologyreliablystoresmemorycontents
even after 100 cycles. The MXIC's cell is designed to
optimize the erase and programming mechanisms. In
addition, the combination of advanced tunnel oxide
processing and low internal electric fields for erase and
programmingoperationsproducesreliablecycling. The
MX29L1611G uses a 11V Vpp supply to perform the
Auto Erase and Auto Program algorithms.
The standard MX29L1611G offers access times as fast
as 100ns,allowing operation of high-speed
microprocessorswithoutwait. Toeliminatebuscontention,
the MX29L1611G has separate chip enable CE and,
outputenable(OE).
MXIC's Flash memories augment EPROM functionality
with electrical erasure and programming. The
MX29L1611G uses a command register to manage this
functionality.
The highest degree of latch-up protection is achieved
with MXIC's proprietary non-epi process. Latch-up
protection is proved for stresses up to 100 milliamps on
address and data pin from -1V to VCC +1V.
