Comments
1
START
1110
IN
FWH4 must be active (low) for the part to respond.
Only the last start field (before FWH4 transitioning
high) should be recognized. The START field contents
indicate a FWH memory read cycle.
2
IDSEL
0000 to 1111
IN
Indicates which SST49LF00xA device should
respond. If the IDSEL (ID select) field matches the
value ID[3:0], then that particular device will respond
to the whole bus cycle.
3-9
IMADDR
YYYY
IN
These seven clock cycles make up the 28-bit memory
address. YYYY is one nibble of the entire address.
Addresses are transferred most-significant nibble first.
10
IMSIZE
0000 (1 byte)
IN
This size field indicates how many bytes will be
transferred during multi-byte operations. The FWH
only supports single-byte writes. IMSIZE=0000b
11
DATA
YYYY
IN
This field is the least-significant nibble of the data byte.
This data is either the data to be programmed into the
flash memory or any valid flash command.
12
DATA
YYYY
IN
This field is the most-significant nibble of the data byte.
13
TAR0
1111
IN then Float
In this clock cycle, the master (Intel ICH) has driven the
then float bus to all ‘1’s and then floats the bus prior to
the next clock cycle. This is the first part of the bus
“turnaround cycle.”
14
TAR1
1111 (float)
Float then OUT
The SST49LF00xA takes control of the bus during this
cycle. During the next clock cycle it will be driving the
“sync” data.
15
RSYNC
0000
OUT
The SST49LF00xA outputs the values 0000, indicat-
ing that it has received data or a flash command.
16
TAR0
1111
OUT then Float
In this clock cycle, the SST49LF00xA has driven the
bus to all then float ‘1’s and then floats the bus prior to
the next clock cycle. This is the first part of the bus
“turnaround cycle.”
17
TAR1
1111 (float)
Float then IN
The master (Intel ICH) resumes control of the bus during
this cycle.
