This document contains information on a product under development at Advanced Micro Devices. The product is an 8 Megabit (1 M x 8-Bit) CMOS 3.0 Volt-only Boot Sector Flash Memory, which features single power supply operation, advanced process technology, high performance, ultra low power consumption, and flexible sector architecture.
The AMD Am29LV008B is an 8 Megabit (1 M x 8-Bit) CMOS Flash Memory designed for battery-powered applications requiring a single power supply operation between 2.7 to 3.6 volts, or regulated operations at 3.0 to 3.6 volts. Manufactured on a 0.35 um process technology, the device offers high performance with access times as fast as 80 ns in full voltage range and 70 ns in regulated voltage range.
Key features include flexible sector architecture supporting various erase sizes, hardware and software sector protection mechanisms, and embedded algorithms for automatic preprogramming and erasing. The device includes power-saving modes such as Automatic Sleep and Standby, along with a Ready/Busy# pin to detect operation completion.
