Q4 2002 - Slide 1

• Ideal for Data Storage Applications

– Digital voice storage

– Digital image storage

– Text/data storage

• Ideal for Code Storage Applications

– Many applications execute code out of RAM instead of Flash

– Program Code is stored in DataFlash and shadowed into RAM

– One DataFlash can store both code and data!

• The #1 Serial Interface Flash Family Since 1997!

DataFlash® Is...• Low Pin Count, Feature Rich Sequential Access Flash

• Incorporates Features Not Found in Other Flash

– Unique software and hardware features

– Features designed to provide optimum flexibility

Q4 2002 - Slide 6

• Traditional Flash, NAND and other serial flash are Not Ideal for Data Storage

– Large blocks (4K to 128K bytes) must be erased at a time

– Makes data manipulation difficult

– External RAM must be used to manipulate small amounts of data

• DataFlash Incorporates On-Chip SRAM

– Allows true EEPROM emulation

– A single byte can be modified without the use of any external RAM

– All data manipulation operations are totally self-contained

BETTER THAN OTHER FLASH

The DataFlash ExtraThe DataFlash Extra• Every DataFlash Comes With Extra Memory

– DataFlash has more memory than “equivalent” density Flash products» Every DataFlash page includes extra bytes for code or data storage

• Save money! – Integrate the EE2 function and Code size over runs can still fit in the

original target density!

Q4 2002 - Slide 17

• 4K byte Erase Block Size of NAND Flash Makes Message Management Difficult

– If 4K bytes are erased, MESSAGE 1 and part of MESSAGE 2 will be erased

» MESSAGE 2 must first be moved to a blank portion of memory before MESSAGE 1 can be erased

» Once MESSAGE 1 is erased, MESSAGE 2 must be moved again back to upper portion of memory

» Reduces endurance of device by increasing number of write operations

– If sector boundaries are followed, then portions of memory will not be used

» Reduces recording time

• DataFlash Pages Eliminate the Difficulties

– Pages store less than 1 second of voice

– No unnecessary sector move operations

– Less overhead for sector management

– Maximizes recording time
