About this manual

The Am29LV800B is an 8‑Megabit CMOS flash memory that operates from a single 3.0 V supply. It supports a full voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V and a regulated range of 3.0 V to 3.6 V, with access times as fast as 70 ns (regulated) or 80 ns (full range). The device is offered in 48‑ball FBGA, 48‑pin TSOP, and 44‑pin SO packages and provides low power consumption, including 7 mA read current and 15 mA program/erase current.

Key features include flexible sector architecture (16 KB, 8 KB, 32 KB, and 64 KB sectors), hardware and software sector protection, unlock‑bypass programming for faster writes, and automatic sleep and standby modes. The datasheet also details bus operation timing, pin functions, and ordering information such as temperature ranges and package options.

Frequently asked questions

How many write cycles are guaranteed for each sector?

Each sector is guaranteed to endure at least 1,000,000 write cycles.

What package types are available for this flash memory?

The Am29LV800B is offered in 48‑ball FBGA, 48‑pin TSOP, and 44‑pin SO packages.

How is sector protection implemented?

Sector protection is a hardware method that locks a sector to prevent program or erase operations; it can be applied in‑system or via programming equipment.
