PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SST36VF1601 is 1M x16 CMOS Concurrent Read/
Write Flash Memory manufactured with SST’s proprietary,
high performance CMOS SuperFlash technology. The
split-gate cell design and thick oxide tunneling injector
attain better reliability and manufacturability compared with
alternate approaches.The SST36VF1601 writes (Program
or Erase) with a 2.7-3.6V power supply. The
SST36VF1601 device conforms to JEDEC standard
pinouts for x16 memories.
Featuring high performance Word-Program, the
SST36VF1601 device provides a typical Word-Program
time of 14 µsec. The devices use Toggle Bit or Data# Poll-
ing to detect the completion of the Program or Erase opera-
tion. To protect against inadvertent write, the
SST36VF1601 device has on-chip hardware and Software
Data Protection schemes. Designed, manufactured, and
tested for a wide spectrum of applications, the
SST36VF1601 device is offered with a guaranteed endur-
ance of 10,000 cycles. Data retention is rated at greater
than 100 years.
The SST36VF1601 is suited for applications that require
convenient and economical updating of program, configu-
ration, or data memory. For all system applications, the
SST36VF1601 significantly improves performance and reli-
ability, while lowering power consumption. The
SST36VF1601 inherently uses less energy during Erase
and Program than alternative flash technologies. The total
energy consumed is a function of the applied voltage, cur-
rent, and time of application. Since for any given voltage
range, the SuperFlash technology uses less current to pro-
gram and has a shorter erase time, the total energy con-
sumed during any Erase or Program operation is less than
alternative flash technologies. The SST36VF1601 also
improves flexibility while lowering the cost for program,
data, and configuration storage applications.
