S29PL064J70BFW070

Memory IC Overview

The Infineon S29PL064J70BFW070 is a 64-Mbit (4M x 16-bit) parallel NOR flash memory device from the PL-J series. It features simultaneous read/write architecture with zero latency, allowing independent program/erase operations in one bank while reading from another. The device supports page mode access and operates on a single 3.0 V supply (2.7 V to 3.6 V). Key specifications include a maximum access time of 70 ns and a page access time of 20 ns. It utilizes an enhanced VersatileIO (VIO) interface and includes hardware data protection features.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Simultaneous Read/Write capability enables zero-latency switching between program/erase operations in one bank and read operations in another.
• FlexBank Architecture divides memory into four separate banks for independent operation.
• Enhanced VersatileIO (VIO) allows I/O voltage levels to be determined by the VIO pin, supporting 3.0 V logic.
• Hardware sector protection and persistent sector protection prevent unauthorized program or erase operations.

Memory IC Applications

• Code storage in industrial embedded systems
• Data storage in automotive electronic control units
• Firmware storage in wireless communication devices

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current valid combinations list, as availability may vary. Confirm that the package type and temperature range match the system requirements. Check for any discontinuation notices or lifecycle status updates directly from Infineon before finalizing procurement plans.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when simultaneous read/write performance is required for high-throughput applications. Ensure the system design accommodates the 48-ball FBGA package dimensions. Verify that the host controller supports the JEDEC 42.4 command set and CFI interface for proper initialization and configuration.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the S29PL-J family of 3.0 V Page Mode and Simultaneous Read/Write Flash memories. It is manufactured using 110-nm process technology and offers backward compatibility with older Am29F and Am29LV families. The device is designed for applications requiring reliable non-volatile storage with fast random access capabilities.

Memory IC FAQ

What is the organization of the FlexBank architecture?

The memory space is divided into four banks (A, B, C, D), allowing up to two simultaneous operations per device. Bank A and D contain smaller sectors, while Banks B and C contain larger sectors.

How does the Enhanced VersatileIO (VIO) feature work?

The output voltage generated and input voltages tolerated on all control inputs and I/Os are determined by the voltage on the VIO pin, providing flexibility in interfacing with different logic levels.
