Distinctive Characteristics
Architectural Advantages
128 Mbit Page Mode devices
— Page size of 8 words: Fast page read access from
random locations within the page
Single power supply operation
— Full Voltage range: 2.7 to 3.6 volt read, erase, and
program operations for battery-powered applications
Dual Chip Enable inputs (only in PL129J)
— Two CE# inputs control selection of each half of the
memory space
Simultaneous Read/Write Operation
— Data can be continuously read from one bank while
executing erase/program functions in another bank
— Zero latency switching from write to read operations
FlexBank Architecture
— 4 separate banks, with up to two simultaneous
operations per device
— CE#1 controlled banks:
Bank 1A:
- 16Mbit (4Kw x 8 and 32Kw x 31)
Bank 1B:

program operations in other sectors of same bank
Unlock Bypass Program command
— Reduces overall programming time when issuing
multiple program command sequences
Hardware Features
Ready/Busy# pin (RY/BY#)
— Provides a hardware method of detecting program or
erase cycle completion
Hardware reset pin (RESET#)
— Hardware method to reset the device to reading
array data
WP#/ ACC (Write Protect/Acceleration) input
— At V
IL
, hardware level protection for the first and
last two 4K word sectors.
— At V
IH
, allows removal of sector protection
— At V
HH
