Benefits |
| 1.8 Volt-only for Read, Program and Erase |
Helps lower overall system cost and power consumption by eliminating 5.0 Volt and 3.0 Volt power supplies
|
| Extended Operating Range |
Facilitates battery selection by providing operation over an unregulated 1.7 - 1.9 Volt range. Meets commercial and industrial temperature range requirements |
| Read Mode Power Consumpiton as low as27mW (typical) Zero Power Operation consumes 0.2uA (typical) |
Extends system usage time between battery charges |
| Choice of Architectures |
Simplifies design by offering world-wide databus, and standard and Simultaneous Read/Write, Burst, or Page Mode operation |
| Initial Read Access Times as fast as 40ns (PDS) and asynchronous 90ns (BDS) |
Helps improve system performance |
| Minimum 1,000,000 Program/Erase Cycles 20 Year Data Retention at 125oC |
Reliable operation over time |
| Accelerated (factory) Programming Mode |
Can decrease programming time (by up to 50 percent) |
| SecSi™ (Secure Silicon) Sector Protection (PDS only) |
Provides system security by permanently locking (one time only) an ID number into a special sector (prevents product cloning) |
| Handshaking feature (BD643 only) |
Allows the host system to simply monitor RDY signal from the device to optimize read of theinitial word of burst data |
