The AT45DB321C is an SPI compatible, serial-interface Flash memory ideally suited for a wide variety of digital voice-, image-, program code- and datastorage applications. The AT45DB321C supports a 4-wire serial interface known as RapidS for applications requiring very high speed operations.Its 34,603,008 bits of memory are organized as 8192 pages of 528 bytes each. In
addition to the 33-megabit main memory, the AT45DB321C also contains two SRAM
buffers of 528 bytes each.The buffers allow the receiving of data while a page in the main page Memory is being reprogrammed, as well as writing a continuous data stream. EEPROM emulation (bit or byte alterability) is easily handled with a self-contained three step read-modify-write
operation. Unlike conventional Flash memories that are accessed randomly with multiple
address lines and a parallel interface, the DataFlash uses a RapidS serial interface to sequentially access its data. The simple sequential access dramatically reduces active pin count, facilitates hardware layout, increases system reliability, minimizes switching noise, and reduces package size. The device is optimized for use in many commercial and industrial applications where high-density, low-pin count, lowvoltage and low-power are essential. The device operates at clock frequencies up to 40 MHz with a typical active read current consumption of 10 mA.
To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the AT45DB321C does not require high input
voltages for programming. The device operates from a single power supply, 2.7V to 3.6V, for
both the program and read operations. The AT45DB321C is enabled through the chip select pin
(CS) and accessed via a three-wire interface consisting of the Serial Input (SI), Serial Output
(SO), and the Serial Clock (SCK).
All programming and erase cycles are self-timed.
