Functional Overview
This section provides an overview of the K3/K18 device features and architecture.
The K3/K18 device product line adds a high performance burst-mode interface and other
additional features to the Intel StrataFlash
the K3/K18 utilizes reliable and proven two-bit-per-cell technology to deliver 2x the memory in 1x
the space, offering high density flash at low cost. This is the third generation of Intel's multi-level
cell (MLC) technology, manufactured on 0.18 µm lithography, making it the most widely used and
proven MLC product family on the market.
K3/K18 is a 3-volt device (core), but it is available with 3-volt (K3) or 1.8-volt (K18) I/O voltages.
These devices are ideal for mainstream applications requiring large storage space for both code and
data storage. Advanced system designs will benefit from the high performance page and burst
modes for direct execution from the flash memory. Available in densities from 64 Mb to 256 Mbit
(32 Mbyte), the K3/K18 device is the highest density NOR-based flash component available today,
just as it was when Intel introduced the original device in 1997.
High Performance Page/Burst Modes
NOR-based flash is generally preferred over other architectures for its reliability and fast read
speeds. Fast reads allow the application to execute code directly out of flash, rather than
downloading to RAM for execution, saving the costs of redundant system memory and board
space. The K3/K18 device sets the standard for fast read speeds by adding burst mode and utilizing
an 8 word page mode. Burst mode increases throughput up to 76MB/s, effectively five times faster
than asynchronous reads on standard flash memory, and supports performance up to 66 Mhz with
zero wait states. Both page and burst modes also provide a high performance glueless interface to
the Intel
microprocessors.
Single Chip Solution
In addition to code execution, many applications also have data storage needs. K3/K18 memory
provides a single-chip solution for combined code execution and data storage. A single-chip
solution is easy to implement by utilizing a unique hardware and software combination: the K3/
K18 device and Intel
