Product details
Overview
PSD853F2-90MI from STMicroelectronics is a Flash in-system programmable (ISP) peripheral IC for 8-bit microcontrollers, integrating dual-bank Flash (1.5 Mbit primary + 256 Kbit secondary), 256 Kbit SRAM, 27 reconfigurable I/O ports, and a hybrid PLD (3000-gate CPLD + user-defined DPLD). It supports concurrent read/erase/write operations and is used in legacy industrial control systems requiring field-upgradable firmware and flexible address decoding.
For engineers reviewing the PSD853F2-90MI datasheet, PSD853F2-90MI pinout, PSD853F2-90MI application, or PSD853F2-90MI equivalent, key selection criteria include ISP JTAG support, dual-bank Flash concurrency, page register–enabled 256× address expansion, and PLD-based chip select decoding for 8-bit MCUs like 80C51XA and 68HC11.
Technical Context
This device functions as a memory and logic co-processor adjacent to an 8-bit MCU bus, providing nonvolatile storage, volatile RAM, and configurable logic in a single PQFP52 package. Its architecture separates primary and secondary Flash banks to enable background erase while executing code from the other bank.
The integrated PLD includes both CPLD (16 OMCs, 24 IMCs) and DPLD blocks for custom chip-select generation and glue logic replacement. The page register extends the MCU's 16-bit address space to 24 bits, enabling access to up to 16 MB of combined memory space without external latches.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Primary Flash | 1.5 Mbit (8 × 32K x8 uniform sectors); enables firmware partitioning and A/B update schemes. |
| Secondary Flash | 256 Kbit (4 × 64K x8 uniform sectors); dedicated for configuration data or boot loader storage. |
| SRAM | 256 Kbit (32K x8); provides fast, battery-backed or volatile working memory for MCU data buffers. |
| PLD Capacity | 3000 equivalent gates; implements combinational and registered logic for address decoding and I/O control. |
| Max Clock Speed | 90 MHz system timing (90 ns access time); supports high-speed 8-bit bus interfaces including 80C51XA and 68HC11. |
| I/O Ports | 27 reconfigurable pins; 16 support open-drain mode for wired-OR bus signaling or level translation. |
| JTAG Interface | Fully compliant IEEE 1149.1 port; enables in-system programming, boundary scan, and debug access without MCU involvement. |
Pinout & Package
PQFP52 (Plastic Quad Flat Package, 52-pin, 10 × 10 mm, 0.65 mm pitch), ECOPACK® RoHS-compliant package with exposed thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A15 | Address Inputs | 16-bit multiplexed or non-multiplexed address bus interface; supports both 80C51XA and 68HC11 addressing modes. |
| D0–D7 | Data Bus | 8-bit bidirectional data path; compatible with standard 8-bit MCU data buses and supports byte-enable control. |
| RD, WR, CS | Control Signals | Standard read/write/chip-select inputs; mapped to MCU control lines for seamless integration without glue logic. |
| TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO | JTAG Port | IEEE 1149.1 serial test interface; enables full-chip ISP, flash programming, and boundary-scan diagnostics. |
| RESET | Reset Input | Active-low synchronous reset signal; initializes Flash, SRAM, PLD registers, and internal state machines. |
| VCC, VSS | Power Supply | 5 V ±10% supply and ground; supports industrial temperature range operation (–40°C to +85°C). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-bank Flash concurrency | Enables real-time firmware updates: read active code from Bank A while erasing/writing Bank B-no system halt required. |
| Page register (256-page expansion) | Extends 16-bit MCU address space to 24 bits (64 KB → 16 MB), eliminating need for external address latches or banking logic. |
| Configurable PLD logic | Replaces discrete decoders, latches, and glue logic; DPLD handles chip-select decoding, CPLD implements custom I/O control or state machines. |
| Open-drain I/O capability | 16 pins support open-drain mode for shared bus arbitration, interrupt line wiring, or level-shifting in mixed-voltage systems. |
| Programmable power management | Automatic Power-down (APD) unit reduces standby current to <100 µA; configurable via PMMR registers for low-power embedded operation. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controller | Legacy Medical Instrument |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Field-deployed programmable logic controller with firmware update capability and hardware-configurable I/O mapping. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Memory and logic co-processor managing Flash-based program storage, SRAM data buffering, and dynamic chip-select generation for modular I/O expansion. Use Value: Concurrent Flash bank operation allows zero-downtime firmware upgrades; PLD eliminates external decoder ICs, reducing BOM count and board area. |
Use Scenario: Electromechanical diagnostic equipment using 80C51XA MCU with strict EMI and reliability requirements. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile peripheral providing secure boot code storage, runtime parameter retention, and noise-immune address decoding via CPLD. Use Value: JTAG ISP enables post-manufacturing calibration data programming; open-drain I/O supports isolated interrupt signaling in safety-critical subsystems. |
| Automotive Body Control Module | Point-of-Sale Terminal |
Use Scenario: In-vehicle body electronics module requiring EEPROM-like field reprogramming and robust power management. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Flash/SRAM/PLD system-on-package interfacing with 68HC11 MCU; handles wake-up logic, sensor data logging, and CAN interface glue logic. Use Value: APD power-down mode cuts quiescent current below 100 µA during sleep cycles; sector protection prevents accidental overwrites of critical calibration data. |
Use Scenario: Embedded payment terminal with legacy 8-bit architecture needing secure firmware updates and peripheral expansion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Memory expansion and logic interface between 80C251 MCU and display, keypad, and smart-card reader peripherals.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash+PLD+SRAM peripheral applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PSD854F2-90MI | 2 Mbit primary Flash (vs. 1.5 Mbit), same SRAM/PLD specs; identical pinout and timing. | Supports larger firmware images; requires no PCB change but increases cost and programming time. | Select when firmware size exceeds 1.5 Mbit and backward compatibility with PSD853F2 layout is required. |
| PSD833F2-90MI | 1 Mbit primary Flash, no secondary Flash; otherwise identical architecture and pinout. | Lacks secondary Flash for boot loader isolation; suitable only for simpler, single-image applications. | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where concurrent update capability and dual-bank security are not required. |
Compared with PSD854F2-90MI, the PSD853F2-90MI trades 512 Kbit Flash capacity for lower cost and faster programming cycles; versus PSD833F2-90MI, it adds 500 Kbit primary Flash and full secondary Flash functionality-enabling secure A/B firmware deployment in safety-critical systems.

FAQ
Is PSD853F2-90MI still in production?
No-PSD853F2-90MI is marked as Obsolete by STMicroelectronics per Doc ID 7833 Rev 7. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains verified legacy stock with full traceability, extended warranty, and engineering support for ongoing production and repair programs.
What development tools support JTAG programming of PSD853F2-90MI?
ST's FlashLINK cable and PSDSoft development software (v3.5 or earlier) are fully compatible. The JTAG interface complies with IEEE 1149.1, so third-party boundary-scan tools with configurable instruction sets can also perform ISP if configured for PSD-specific IDCODE (0x2080103F) and command sequences.
Can the PLD logic be reconfigured independently of Flash contents?
Yes-the CPLD and DPLD blocks are programmed separately from Flash memory using distinct JTAG instructions. PLD configuration persists through Flash erase cycles and can be updated in-system without affecting stored firmware or SRAM data.
Does PSD853F2-90MI support 3.3 V operation?
No-it is a 5 V-only device (VCC = 4.5–5.5 V), specified in Table 40 of the datasheet. It lacks 3 V logic-level compatibility; interfacing with 3.3 V MCUs requires level-shifting on all bus signals, including JTAG lines.
