The AT49BV163D(T) is a 2.7-volt 16-megabit Flash memory organized as 1,048,576 words of 16 bits each or 2,097,152 bytes of 8 bits each. The x16 data appears on I/O0 - I/O15; the x8 data appears on I/O0 - I/O7. The memory is divided into 39 sectors for erase operations. The device is offered in a 48-lead TSOP and a 48-ball CBGA package. The device has CE and OE c ontrol signals to avoid any bus contention. This device can be read or reprogrammed using a single power supply, making it ideally suited for in-system programming. The device powers on in the read mode. Command sequences are used to place the device in other operation modes such as program and erase. The device has the capability to protect the data in any sector (see "Sector Lockdown" on page 5). To increase the flexibility of the device, it contains an Erase Suspend and Program Suspend feature. This feature will put the erase or program on hold for any amount of time and let the user read data from or program data to any of the remaining sectors within the memory. The end of a program or an erase cycle is detected by the READY/BUSY pin, Data Polling or by the toggle bit. A six-byte command (Enter Single Pulse Program Mode) sequence to remove the requirement of entering the three-byte program sequence is offered to further improve programming time. After entering the six-byte code, only single pulses on the write control lines are required for writing into the device. This mode (Single Pulse Byte/Word Program) is exited by powering down the device, or by pulsing the RESET pin low for a minimum of 500 ns and then bringing it back to VCC. Erase,
