Description
The AT45DB081B is a 2.5-volt or 2.7-volt only, serial interface Flash memory ideally
suited for a wide variety of digital voice-, image-, program code- and data-storage
applications. Its 8,650,752 bits of memory are organized as 4096 pages of 264 bytes
each. In addition to the main memory, the AT45DB081B also contains two SRAM
data buffers of 264 bytes each. The buffers allow receiving of data while a page in the
main memory is being reprogrammed, as well as writing a continuous data stream.

AT45DB081B
2225F–DFLSH–5/03
EEPROM emulation (bit or byte alterability) is easily handled with a self-contained three
step Read-Modify-Write operation. Unlike conventional Flash memories that are
accessed randomly with multiple address lines and a parallel interface, the DataFlash
uses a SPI serial interface to sequentially access its data. DataFlash supports SPI mode
0 and mode 3. The simple serial interface facilitates hardware layout, increases system
reliability, minimizes switching noise, and reduces package size and active pin count.
The device is optimized for use in many commercial and industrial applications where
high density, low pin count, low voltage, and low power are essential. The device oper-
ates at clock frequencies up to 20 MHz with a typical active read current consumption of
4 mA.
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the AT45DB081B does not require
high input voltages for programming. The device operates from a single power supply,
2.5V to 3.6V or 2.7V to 3.6V, for both the program and read operations. The
AT45DB081B is enabled through the chip select pin (CS
) and accessed via a three-wire
interface consisting of the Serial Input (SI), Serial Output (SO), and the Serial Clock
(SCK).
All programming cycles are self-timed, and no separate erase cycle is required before
programming.
When the device is shipped from Atmel, the most significant page of the memory array
may not be erased. In other words, the contents of the last page may not be filled with
FFH.
Block Diagram
Memory Array
To provide optimal flexibility, the memory array of the AT45DB081B is divided into three
levels of granularity comprising of sectors, blocks, and pages. The Memory Architecture
Diagram illustrates the breakdown of each level and details the number of pages per
sector and block. All program operations to the DataFlash occur on a page-by-page
basis; however, the optional erase operations can be performed at the block or page
level.

Memory Architecture Diagram
Device Operation
The device operation is controlled by instructions from the host processor. The list of
instructions and their associated opcodes are contained in Tables 1 through 4. A valid
instruction starts with the falling edge of CS
followed by the appropriate 8-bit opcode
and the desired buffer or main memory address location. While the CS
pin is low, tog-
gling the SCK pin controls the loading of the opcode and the desired buffer or main
memory address location through the SI (serial input) pin. All instructions, addresses
and data are transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.
Buffer addressing is referenced in the datasheet using the terminology BFA8 - BFA0 to
denote the nine address bits required to designate a byte address within a buffer. Main
memory addressing is referenced using the terminology PA11 - PA0 and BA8 - BA0
where PA11 - PA0 denotes the 12 address bits required to designate a page address
and BA8 - BA0 denotes the nine address bits required to designate a byte address
within the page.
Read Commands By specifying the appropriate opcode, data can be read from the main memory or from
either one of the two data buffers. The DataFlash supports two categories of read
modes in relation to the SCK signal. The differences between the modes are in respect
to the inactive state of the SCK signal as well as which clock cycle data will begin to be
output. The two categories, which are comprised of four modes total, are defined as
Inactive Clock Polarity Low or Inactive Clock Polarity High and SPI Mode 0 or SPI
Mode 3. A separate opcode (refer to Table 1 on page 10 for a complete list) is used to
select which category will be used for reading. Please refer to the “Detailed Bit-level
Read Timing” diagrams in this datasheet for details on the clock cycle sequences for
each mode.
CONTINUOUS ARRAY READ: By supplying an initial starting address for the main
memory array, the Continuous Array Read command can be utilized to sequentially
read a continuous stream of data from the device by simply providing a clock signal; no
additional addressing information or control signals need to be provided. The DataFlash
incorporates an internal address counter that will automatically increment on every clock
