GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Offered in 32Mx8bit , the K9F5608X0D is 256M bit with spare 8M bit capacity. The device is offered in 1.8V, 2.7V, 3.3V Vcc. Its
NAND cell provides the most cost-effective solutIon for the solid state mass storage market. A program operation can be performed
in typical 200s on a 528-byte page and an erase operation can be performed in typical 2ms on a 16K-byte block. Data in the page
can be read out at 50ns cycle time per byte. The I/O pins serve as the ports for address and data input/output as well as command
input. The on-chip write control automates all program and erase functions including pulse repetition, where required, and internal
verification and margining of data. Even the write-intensive systems can take advantage of the K9F5608X0Ds extended reliability of
100K program/erase cycles by providing ECC(Error Correcting Code) with real time mapping-out algorithm.
The K9F5608X0D is an optimum solution for large nonvolatile storage applications such as solid state file storage and other portable
applications requiring non-volatility.

PIN DESCRIPTION
Pin NAME
Pin Function
I/O0 ~ I/O7
DATA INPUTS/OUTPUTS
The I/O pins are used to input command, address and data, and to output data during read operations. The I/
O pins float to high-z when the chip is deselected or when the outputs are disabled.
CLE
ALE
CE
CHIP ENABLE
The CE input is the device selection control. When the device is in the Busy state, CE high is ignored, and
the device does not return to standby mode in program or erase operation. Regarding CE control during
read operation, refer to Page read section of Device operation.
RE
READ ENABLE
The RE input is the serial data-out control, and when active drives the data onto the I/O bus. Data is valid
tREA after the falling edge of RE which also increments the internal column address counter by one.
WE
WRITE ENABLE
The WE input controls writes to the I/O port. Commands, address and data are latched on the rising edge of
the WE pulse.
WP
WRITE PROTECT
The WP pin provides inadvertent write/erase protection during power tra nsitions. The internal high voltage
generator is reset when the WP pin is active low.
R/B
READY/BUSY OUTPUT
The R/B output indicates the status of the device operation. When low, it indicates that a program, erase or
random read operation is in process and returns to high state upon completion. It is an open drain output and
does not float to high-z condition when the chip is deselected or when outputs are disabled.

PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
The K9F5608X0D is a 264Mbit(276,824,064 bit) memory organized as 65,536 rows(pages) by 528 columns. Spare eight columns are
located from column address of 512~527. A 528-byte data register is connected to memory cell arrays accommodating data transfer
between the I/O buffers and memory during page read and page program operations.The memory array is made up of 16 cells that
are serially connected to form a NAND structure. Each of the 16 cells resides in a different page. A block consists of two NAND structured strings. A NAND structure consists of 16 cells. Total 135168 NAND cells reside in a block. The array organization is shown in
Figure 2-1. The program and read operations are executed on a page basis, while the erase operation is executed on a block basis.
The memory array consists of 2048 separately erasable 16K-Byte blocks. It indicates that the bit by bit erase operation is prohibited
on the K9F5608X0D.
The K9F5608X0D has addresses multiplexed into 8 I/Os. This scheme dramatically reduces pin counts while providing high performance and allows systems upgrades to future densities by maintaining consistency in system board design. Command, address and
data are all written through I/Os by bringing WE to low while CE is low. Data is latched on the rising edge of WE. Command Latch
Enable(CLE) and Address Latch Enable(ALE) are used to multiplex command and address respectively, via the I/O pins. Some commands require one bus cycle. For example, Reset command, Read command, Status Read command, etc require just one cycle bus.
Some other commands like Page Program and Copy-back Program and Block Erase, require two cycles: one cycle for setup and the
other cycle for execution. The 32M-byte physical space requires 24 addresses, thereby requiring three cycles for word-level addressing: column address, low row address and high row address, in that order. Page Read and Page Program need the same three
address cycles following the required command input. In Block Erase operation, however, only the two row address cycles are used.
Device operations are selected by writing specific commands into the command register. Table 1 defines the specific commands of
the K9F5608X0D.
The device includes one block sized OTP(One Time Programmable), which can be used to increase system security or to provide
identification capabilities. Detailed information can be obtained by contact with Samsung.

1. Minimum DC voltage is -0.6V on input/output pins. During transitions, this level may undershoot to -2.0V for periods <30ns.
Maximum DC voltage on input/output pins is VCC,+0.3V which, during transitions, may overshoot to VCC+2.0V for periods <20ns.
2. Permanent device damage may occur if ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS are exceeded. Functional operation should be restricted to the conditions
as detailed in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect reliability.

DEVICE OPERATION
PAGE READ
Upon initial device power up, the device defaults to Read1 mode. This operation is also initiated by writing 00h to the command register along with three address cycles. Once the command is latched, it does not need to be written for the following page read operation. Two types of operations are available : random read, serial page read.
The random read mode is enabled when the page address is changed. The 528 byte of data within the selected page are transferred
to the data registers in less than 15s(tR). The system controller can detect the completion of this data transfer(tR) by analyzing the
output of R/B pin. Once the data in a page is loaded into the registers, they may be read out in 50ns cycle time by sequentially pulsing
RE. High to low transitions of the RE clock output the data starting from the selected column address up to the last column address.
The way the Read1 and Read2 commands work is like a pointer set to either the main area or the spare area. Addresses A0~A3 set
the starting address of the spare area while addresses A4~A7 are ignored . The Read1 command is needed to move the pointer back
to the main area. Figures 8,9 show typical sequence and timings for each read operation.
Sequential Row Read is available only on K9F5608U0D_P,F or K9F5608B0D_P :
After the data of last column address is clocked out, the next page is automatically selected for sequential row read. Waiting 15s
again allows reading the selected page. The sequential row read operation is terminated by bringing CE high. Unless the operation
is aborted, the page address is automatically incremented for sequential row read as in Read1 operation and spare sixteen bytes of
each page may be sequentially read. The Sequential Read 1 and 2 operations are allowed only within a block and after the last page
of a block being readout, the sequential read operation must be terminated by bringing CE high. When the page address moves onto
the next block, read command and address must be given. Figures 8-1, 9-1 show typical sequence and timings for sequential row
read operation.

PAGE PROGRAM
The device is programmed basically on a page basis, but it does allow multiple partial page programing of a byte/word or consecutive
bytes/words up to 528, in a single page program cycle. The number of consecutive partial page programming operation within the
same page without an intervening erase operation should not exceed 2 for main array and 3 for spare array. The addressing may be
done in any random order in a block. A page program cycle consists of a serial data loading period in which up to 528 bytes of data
may be loaded into the page register, followed by a non-volatile programming period where the loaded data is programmed into the
appropriate cell. About the pointer operation, please refer to the attached technical notes.
The serial data loading period begins by inputting the Serial Data Input command(80h), followed by the three cycle address input and
then serial data loading. The words other than those to be programmed do not need to be loaded.The Page Program confirm command(10h) initiates the programming process. Writing 10h alone without previously entering the serial data will not initiate the programming process. The internal write controller automatically executes the algorithms and timings necessary for program and verify,
thereby freeing the system controller for other tasks. Once the program process starts, the Read Status Register command may be
entered, with RE and CE low, to read the status register. The system controller can detect the completion of a program cycle by monitoring the R/B output, or the Status bit(I/O 6) of the Status Register. Only the Read Status command and Reset command are valid
while programming is in progress. When the Page Program is complete, the Write Status Bit(I/O 0) may be checked(Figure 10). The
internal write verify detects only errors for "1"s that are not successfully programmed to "0"s. The command register remains in Read
Status command mode until another valid command is written to the command register.

COPY-BACK PROGRAM
The copy-back program is configured to quickly and efficiently rewrite data stored in one page within the array to another page within
the same array without utilizing an external memory. Since the time-consuming sequently-reading and its re-loading cycles are
removed, the system performance is improved. The benefit is especially obvious when a portion of a block is updated and the rest of
the block also need to be copied to the newly assigned free block. The operation for performing a copy-back is a sequential execution
of page-read without burst-reading cycle and copying-program with the address of destination page. A normal read operation with
"00h" command with the address of the source page moves the whole 528bytes data into the internal buffer. As soon as the Flash
returns to Ready state, copy-back programming command "8Ah" may be given with three address cycles of target page followed. The
data stored in the internal buffer is then programmed directly into the memory cells of the destination page. Once the Copy-Back Program is finished, any additional partial page programming into the copied pages is prohibited before erase. Since the memory array is
internally partitioned into two different planes, copy-back program is allowed only within the same memory plane. Thus, A14, the
plane address, of source and destination page address must be the same."When there is a program-failure at Copy-Back operation, error is reported by pass/fail status. But if the soure page has a bit error for charge loss, accumulated copy-back
operations could also accumulate bit errors. For this reason, two bit ECC is recommended for copy-back operation."

BLOCK ERASE
The Erase operation is done on a block basis. Block address loading is accomplished in two cycles initiated by an Erase Setup command(60h). Only address A14 to A24 is valid while A9 to A13 is ignored. The Erase Confirm command(D0h) following the block address
loading initiates the internal erasing process. This two-step sequence of setup followed by execution command ensures that memory
contents are not accidentally erased due to external noise conditions.
At the rising edge of WE after the erase confirm command input, the internal write controller handles erase and erase-verify. When the
erase operation is completed, the Write Status Bit(I/O 0) may be checked. Figure 12 details the sequence.

READ STATUS
The device contains a Status Register which may be read to find out whether program or erase operation is completed, and whether
the program or erase operation is completed successfully. After writing 70h command to the command register, a read cycle outputs
the content of the Status Register to the I/O pins on the falling edge of CE or RE, whichever occurs last. This two line control allows
the system to poll the progress of each device in multiple memory connections even when R/B pins are common-wired. RE or CE
does not need to be toggled for updated status. Refer to table 4 for specific Status Register definitions. The command register
remains in Status Read mode until further commands are issued to it. Therefore, if the status register is read during a random read
cycle, a read command(00h or 50h) should be given before sequential page read cycle.

READ ID
The device contains a product identification mode, initiated by writing 90h to the command register, followed by an address input of
00h. Two read cycles sequentially output the manufacture code(ECh), and the device code respectively. The command register
remains in Read ID mode until further commands are issued to it. Figure 13 shows the operation sequence.

RESET
The device offers a reset feature, executed by writing FFh to the command register. When the device is in Busy state during random
read, program or erase mode, the reset operation will abort these operations. The contents of memory cells being altered are no
longer valid, as the data will be partially programmed or erased. The command register is cleared to wait for the next command, and
the Status Register is cleared to value C0h when WP is high. Refer to table 5 for device status after reset operation. If the device is
already in reset state a new reset command will not be accepted by the command register. The R/B pin transitions to low for tRST
after the Reset command is written. Refer to Figure 14 below.

READY/BUSY
The device has a R/B output that provides a hardware method of indicating the completion of a page program, erase and random
read completion. The R/B pin is normally high but transitions to low after program or erase command is written to the command register or random read is started after address loading. It returns to high when the internal controller has finished the operation. The pin
is an open-drain driver thereby allowing two or more R/B outputs to be Or-tied. Because pull-up resistor value is related to tr(R/B)
and current drain during busy(ibusy) , an appropriate value can be obtained with the following reference chart(Fig 15). Its value can
be determined by the following guidance.
