GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Pm25LV512/010 are 512 Kbit/1 Mbits 3.0 Volt-only serial Flash memories. These devices are designed to use
a single low voltage, range from 2.7 Volt to 3.6 Volt, power supply to perform read, erase and program operations.
The devices can be programmed in standard EPROM programmers as well.
The device is optimized for use in many commercial applications where low-power and low-voltage operation are
essential. The Pm25LV512/010 is enabled through the Chip Enable pin (CE#) and accessed via a 3-wire interface
consisting of Serial Data Input (Sl), Serial Data Output (SO), and Serial Clock (SCK). All write cycles are com-
pletely self-timed.
Block Write protection for top 1/4, top 1/2 or the entire memory array (1M) or entire memory array (512K) is enabled
by programming the status register. Separate write enable and write disable instructions are provided for additional
data protection. Hardware data protection is provided via the WP pin to protect against inadvertent write attempts
to the status register. The HOLD pin may be used to suspend any serial communication without resetting the serial
sequence.
The Pm25LV512/010 are manufactured on PMC’s advanced nonvolatile CMOS technology, P-FLASH™. The de-
vices are offered in 8-pin JEDEC SOIC and 8-contact WSON packages with operation frequency up to 25 MHz.

Pm25LV512/010
SERIAL INTERFACE DESCRIPTION
Pm25LV512/010 can be driven by a microcontroller on the SPI bus as shown in Figure 1. The serial communication
term definitions are in the following section.
MASTER:
The device that generates the serial clock.
SLAVE:
Because the Serial Clock pin (SCK) is always an input, the Pm25LV512/010 always operates as a slave.
TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER:
The Pm25LV512/010 has separate pins designated for data transmission (SO) and
reception (Sl).
MSB:
The Most Significant Bit (MSB) is the first bit transmitted and received.
SERIAL OP-CODE:
After the device is selected with CE# going low, the first byte will be received. This byte
contains the op-code that defines the operations to be performed.
INVALID OP-CODE:
If an invalid op-code is received, no data will be shifted into the Pm25LV512/010, and the serial
output pin (SO) will remain in a high impedance state until the falling edge of CE# is detected again. This will
reinitialize the serial communication.
