5V program/erase operation has been added.
If switching V
PP
for write protection, switch to
GND (not 5V) for complete write protection. To
take advantage of 5V write-capability, allow for
connecting 5V to V
PP
and disconnecting 12V
from V
PP
line.

PRODUCT FAMILY OVERVIEW
This datasheet contains the specifications for the
two branches of products in the SmartVoltage
4-Mbit boot block flash memory family: the -BE/CE
suffix products feature a low V
CC
operating range
of 2.7V–3.6V; the -BV/CV suffix products offer
3.0V–3.6V operation. Both BE/CE and BV/CV
products also operate at 5V for high-speed access
times. Throughout this datasheet, the 28F400
refers to all x8/x16 4-Mbit products, while
28F004B refers to all x8 4-Mbit boot block
products. Also, the term “2.7V” generally refers to
the full voltage range 2.7V–3.6V. Section 1
provides an overview of the flash memory family
including
applications,
pinouts
and
pin
descriptions. Sections 2 and 3 describe the
memory organization and operation for these
products. Finally, Sections 4 and 5 contain the
family’s operating specifications.
•
If you are using BX/BL 12V V
PP
boot block
products today, you should account for the
differences listed above and also allow for
connecting 5V to V
PP
and disconnecting 12V from
V
PP
line, if 5V writes are desired.
1.2
Main Features
1.1
New Features in the
SmartVoltage Products
The SmartVoltage boot block flash memory family
offers identical operation with the BX/BL 12V
program products, except for the differences listed
below. All other functions are equivalent to current
products, including signatures, write commands,
and pinouts.
•
WP# pin has replaced a DU (Don’t Use) pin.
Connect the WP# pin to control signal or to
V
CC
or GND (in this case, a logic-level signal
can be placed on DU pin). See Tables 2 and
9 to see how the WP# pin works.
Intel’s SmartVoltage technology is the most
flexible voltage solution in the flash industry,
providing two discrete voltage supply pins: V
CC
for
read operation, and V
PP
for program and erase
operation. Discrete supply pins allow system
designers to use the optimal voltage levels for
their design. The 28F400BV/CV, 28F004BV,
28F400CE and 28F004BE provide program/erase
capability at 5V or 12V. The 28F400BV/CV and
28F004BV allow reads with V
CC
at 3.3
±
0.3V or
5V, while the 28F400CE and 28F004BE allow
reads with V
CC
at 2.7V–3.6V or 5V. Since many
designs read from the flash memory a large
percentage of the time, read operation using the
2.7V or 3.3V ranges can provide great power
savings. If read performance is an issue, however,
5V V
CC
provides faster read access times.
