Product details
Overview
NAND128W3A0AN6F from STMicroelectronics is a 128 Mbit (16 MB) x8 NAND Flash memory with 1.8V supply, 528-byte page size (512 data + 16 spare), 16 KB block size (16 K + 512 spare), and TSOP48 package. It supports automatic Page 0 read at power-up for boot code loading and features hardware write protection via WP pin. Used in embedded storage modules requiring reliable, low-voltage non-volatile memory.
For engineers reviewing the NAND128W3A0AN6F datasheet, NAND128W3A0AN6F pinout, NAND128W3A0AN6F application, or NAND128W3A0AN6F equivalent, key selection criteria include 1.8V operation, TSOP48 footprint compatibility, Page 0 auto-read boot capability, and support for Copy Back programming to manage bad blocks without host buffering.
Technical Context
This device implements a standard NAND interface with multiplexed I/O[7:0] for address/data/command transfer, using AL, CL, WE, RE, CE, and RB signals to control internal state machines. Its architecture includes a 128 Mbit array organized as 1,024 blocks × 64 pages × 528 bytes per page.
The on-chip P/E/R controller handles page program (200 µs typ), block erase (2 ms typ), and status register polling (SR0 = error flag, SR6 = P/E/R busy, SR7 = write-protect lock). Ready/Busy (RB) is open-drain, enabling wired-OR connection across multiple devices for system-level operation coordination.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 128 Mbit (16 MB) total capacity, sufficient for firmware storage in resource-constrained embedded systems |
| Interface Bus Width | x8 parallel interface with multiplexed I/O[7:0], reducing pin count while maintaining compatibility across density variants |
| Supply Voltage | 1.8V nominal (1.7–1.95V range), enabling direct integration with low-power microcontrollers and SoCs |
| Page Size | 528 bytes (512 data + 16 spare), supporting ECC metadata storage and wear-leveling metadata per page |
| Block Size | 16,384 bytes (16 KB + 512 spare), defining minimum erasable unit and aligning with typical filesystem block sizes |
| Page Program Time | 200 µs typical, enabling high-throughput firmware updates without excessive host wait states |
| Block Erase Time | 2 ms typical, allowing rapid reconfiguration of storage space during garbage collection or field upgrades |
| Data Retention | 10 years at 25°C, ensuring long-term reliability in industrial and automotive applications without refresh |
Pinout & Package
Package: TSOP48 (12 × 20 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), JEDEC-standard thin small-outline package suitable for automated SMT assembly and board-level stacking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| I/O[7:0] | Multiplexed Data/Address/Command bus | Shared lines reduce footprint; requires AL/CL strobes to latch address/command before data transfer |
| CE# | Chip Enable (active-low) | Enables device; "Don't Care" option allows simplified microcontroller interface without external logic |
| RE# | Read Enable (active-low) | Controls output drivers during read cycles; timing critical for sequential access (50 ns min) |
| WE# | Write Enable (active-low) | Strobes command/address/data into internal registers; governs setup/hold for reliable programming |
| AL | Address Latch Enable | Latches column/row address bits during command sequence; separates address phase from data phase |
| CL | Command Latch Enable | Latches command byte (e.g., 0x00 for read, 0x80 for program); initiates internal state machine transitions |
| WP# | Write Protect (active-low) | Hardware lock preventing accidental program/erase; active during power transitions for robustness |
| RB# | Ready/Busy (open-drain) | Signals internal P/E/R activity; shared pull-up enables multi-device status monitoring with single MCU input |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Page 0 Read at Power-Up | Enables boot-from-NAND without external ROM or bootloader initialization overhead |
| Copy Back Program Mode | Allows page-to-page data relocation within flash without host RAM buffering, accelerating bad-block remapping |

FAQ
Does NAND128W3A0AN6F support x16 bus width?
No. NAND128W3A0AN6F is an x8 device with 8-bit I/O bus (I/O[7:0]). The part number suffix "W3A" indicates 1.8V operation and x8 configuration. x16 variants in this family use different suffixes (e.g., "W3B") and have distinct pinouts and timing - mixing them risks interface failure.
What is the purpose of the "Don't Care" CE option?
The Chip Enable "Don't Care" option allows CE# to remain inactive (high) during command execution phases, eliminating the need for precise CE timing control. This simplifies interface design with microcontrollers lacking dedicated NAND timing logic, enabling glueless connection in cost-sensitive applications.
How does the Copy Back Program Mode improve system reliability?
Copy Back Program allows data from a failing or worn page to be relocated to a healthy page within the same device without transferring data through the host processor. This reduces host RAM usage, shortens remapping time, and minimizes exposure to data corruption during bad-block recovery - critical for real-time embedded systems.
Is automatic Page 0 read compatible with all bootloaders?
Yes - automatic Page 0 read delivers the first 528 bytes (including 16-byte spare area) directly onto I/O[7:0] after power-up, independent of bootloader implementation. However, the bootloader must be designed to interpret the initial data stream correctly and handle ECC correction if spare-area metadata is used for error detection.
