About this manual

The M50FW080 is an 8 Mbit (1 M × 8) non‑volatile flash memory that can be read, erased and re‑programmed using a single low voltage (3.0 to 3.6 V) supply. An optional 12 V supply can be applied for fast programming and fast erasing in production lines.

Two bus interfaces are supported: the primary Firmware Hub (FWH) interface, which uses Intel’s proprietary protocol and replaces the ISA bus in PC chipsets, and a secondary Address/Address‑Multiplexed (A/A Mux) interface compatible with standard flash programmers.

Frequently asked questions

What supply voltage range is required for normal operation?

The M50FW080 operates from a single low voltage of 3.0 V to 3.6 V.

Is there an optional voltage for faster programming?

Yes, a 12 V optional supply (Vpp) can be used to reduce programming and erasing times.

How fast can a typical program operation be?

Typical programming time is about 10 µs.
