AT45DB321-CC ATMEL [ATMEL Corporation], AT45DB321-CC Datasheet - Page 2

• Manufacturer Part Number: AT45DB321-CC
• Description: 32-Megabit 2.7-volt Only Serial DataFlash
• Manufacturer: ATMEL [ATMEL Corporation]

ries that are accessed randomly with multiple address lines
and a parallel interface, the DataFlash uses a serial inter-
face to sequentially access its data. The simple serial inter-
face 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. Typical applications for the DataFlash are digital
voice storage, image storage, and data storage. The
device operates at clock frequencies up to 13 MHz with a
typical active read current consumption of 4 mA.
Block Diagram
Memory Array
To provide optimal flexibility, the memory array of the
AT45DB321 is divided into three levels of granularity com-
prising of sectors, blocks, and pages. The Memory Archi-
tecture Diagram illustrates the breakdown of each level and

I/O INTERFACE
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the
AT45DB321 does not require high input voltages for pro-
gramming. The device operates from a single power sup-
p ly , 2. 7V to 3. 6V , f o r b o th t he pr o g r am an d r e a d
operations. The AT45DB321 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.
details the number of pages per sector and block. All pro-
gram operations to the DataFlash occur on a page by page
basis; however, the optional erase operations can be per-
formed at the block or page level.
