The documentation of the Intel 28F016XD flash
memory device includes this datasheet, a detailed
user’s manual, and a number of application notes
and design tools, all of which are referenced in
Appendix B.
The datasheet is intended to give an overview of
the chip feature-set and of the operating AC/DC
specifications.
The 16-Mbit Flash Product Family
User’s Manual
provides complete descriptions of
the user modes, system interface examples and
detailed descriptions of all principles of operation.
It also contains the full list of software algorithm
flowcharts, and a brief section on compatibility
with the Intel 28F008SA.
Significant 28F016XD feature revisions occurred
between datasheet revisions 290533-001 and
290533-002. These revisions center around
removal of the following features:
All page buffer operations (read, write,
programming, Upload Device Information)
Command queuing
Software Sleep and Abort
Erase all Unlocked Blocks
Device Configuration command
In addition, a significant 28F016XD change
occurred between datasheet revisions 290532-002
and 290532-003. This change centers around the
addition of a 3/5# pin to the device’s pinout
configuration. Figure 2 shows the 3/5# pin
assignment for the TSOP Type 1 package.
Intel recommends that all customers obtain the
latest revisions of 28F016XD documentation.

The implementation of a new architecture, with
many enhanced features, will improve the device
operating characteristics and result in greater
product reliability and ease-of-use as compared to
other flash memories. Significant features of the
28F016XD include:
No-Glue Interface to Memory Controllers

The 28F016XD's multiplexed address bus with
RAS# and CAS# inputs allows for a “No Glue”
interface to many existing in-system memory
controllers. As such, 28F016XD-based SIMMs

Software Locking of Memory Blocks is an added
feature of the 28F016XD as compared to the
28F008SA. The 28F016XD provides selectable
block locking to protect code or data such as
direct-executable operating systems or application
code. Each block has an associated nonvolatile
lock-bit which determines the lock status of the
