SHARP’s LH28F160S3T-L10A Flash memory with Smart 3 technology is a high-density, low-cost, nonvolatile,
read/write storage solution for a wide range of applications. Its symmetrically-blocked architecture, flexible voltage
and extended cycling provide for highly flexible component suitable for resident flash arrays, SIMMs and memory
cards. Its enhanced suspend capabilities provide for an ideal solution for code + data storage applications. For
secure code storage applications, such as networking, where code is either directly executed out of flash or
downloaded to DRAM, the LH28F160S3T-L10A offers three levels of protection: absolute protection with V
PP
at
GND, selective hardware block locking, or flexible software block locking. These alternatives give designers
ultimate control of their code security needs.
The LH28F160S3T-L10A is conformed to the flash Scalable Command Set (SCS) and the Common Flash Interface
(CFI) specification which enable universal and upgradable interface, enable the highest system/device data transfer
rates and minimize device and system-level implementation costs.
The LH28F160S3T-L10A is manufactured on SHARP’s 0.35µm ETOX
TM
* V process technology. It come in
industry-standard package: the 56-Lead TSOP ideal for board constrained applications.

This

LH28F160S3T-L10A
specifications. Section 1 provides a flash memory
overview. Sections 2, 3, 4, and 5 describe the
memory organization and functionality. Section 6
covers electrical specifications.
write suspend mode enables the system to read data
or execute code from any other flash memory array
location.
Individual block locking uses a combination of bits
and WP#, Thirty-two block lock-bits, to lock and
unlock blocks. Block lock-bits gate block erase, full
chip erase and (multi) word/byte write operations.
Block lock-bit configuration operations (Set Block
Lock-Bit and Clear Block Lock-Bits commands) set
and cleared block lock-bits.
The status register indicates when the WSM’s block
erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write or block
lock-bit configuration operation is finished.
The STS output gives an additional indicator of WSM
activity by providing both a hardware signal of status
(versus software polling) and status masking
(interrupt masking for background block erase, for
example). Status polling using STS minimizes both
CPU overhead and system power consumption. STS
pin can be configured to different states using the
Configuration command. The STS pin defaults to
RY/BY# operation. When low, STS indicates that the
WSM is performing a block erase, full chip erase,
(multi) word/byte write or block lock-bit configuration.
STS-High Z indicates that the WSM is ready for a
new command, block erase is suspended and (multi)
word/byte write are inactive, (multi) word/byte write
are suspended, or the device is in deep power-down
mode. The other 3 alternate configurations are all
pulse mode for use as a system interrupt.
The access time is 100ns (t
AVQV
) over the
commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) and
V
CC
supply voltage range of 3.0V-3.6V. At lower V
CC
voltage, the access time is 120ns (2.7V-3.6V).
The Automatic Power Savings (APS) feature
substantially reduces active current when the device
is in static mode (addresses not switching). In APS
mode, the typical I
CCR
current is 3 mA at 3.3V V
CC
.
When either CE
0
# or CE
1
#, and RP# pins are at V
CC
,
the I
CC
CMOS standby mode is enabled. When the
RP# pin is at GND, deep power-down mode is
enabled which minimizes power consumption and
provides write protection during reset. A reset time
(t
PHQV
) is required from RP# switching high until
outputs are valid. Likewise, the device has a wake
time (t
PHEL
) from RP#-high until writes to the CUI are
recognized. With RP# at GND, the WSM is reset and
the status register is cleared.
The device is available in 56-Lead TSOP (Thin Small
Outline Package, 1.2 mm thick). Pinout is shown in
Figure 2.
1.1 Product Overview
The LH28F160S3T-L10A is a high-performance 16M-
bit Smart 3 Flash memory organized as
2MBx8/1MBx16. The 2MB of data is arranged in
thirty-two 64K-byte blocks which are individually
erasable, lockable, and unlockable in-system. The
memory map is shown in Figure 3.
Smart 3 technology provides a choice of V
CC
and
V
PP
combinations, as shown in Table 1, to meet
system performance and power expectations. 2.7V
V
CC
consumes approximately one-fifth the power of
5V V
CC
. V
PP
at 2.7V, 3.3V and 5V eliminates the
need for a separate 12V converter, while V
PP
=5V
maximizes erase and write performance. In addition
to flexible erase and program voltages, the dedicated
V
PP
pin gives complete data protection when
V
PP
≤V

detection Circuitry
automatically configures the device for optimized
read and write operations.
A Command User Interface (CUI) serves as the
interface between the system processor and internal
operation of the device. A valid command sequence
written to the CUI initiates device automation. An
internal Write State Machine (WSM) automatically
executes the algorithms and timings necessary for
block erase, full chip erase, (multi) word/byte write
and block lock-bit configuration operations.
A block erase operation erases one of the device’s
64K-byte blocks typically within 0.41s (3.3V V
CC
, 5V
V
PP
) independent of other blocks. Each block can be
independently erased 100,000 times (3.2 million
block erases per device). Block erase suspend mode
allows system software to suspend block erase to
read or write data from any other block.
A word/byte write is performed in byte increments
typically within 12.95µs (3.3V V
CC
, 5V V
PP
). A multi
word/byte write has high speed write performance of
2.7µs/byte (3.3V V

, 5V V

). (Multi) Word/byte
