■ Flash memory
– Compatible with either the LPC interface or the FWH interface (Intel Spec rev1.1) used in PC BIOS applications
– 5-signal communication interface supporting Read and Write operations
– 5 additional general-purpose inputs for platform design flexibility
– Synchronized with 33 MHz PCI clock
■ 16 blocks of 64 Kbytes
– 13 blocks of 64 Kbytes each
– 3 blocks, subdivided into 16 uniform
sectors of 4 Kbytes each Two blocks at the top and one at the bottom (M50FLW080A)
One block at the top and two at the bottom (M50FLW080B)
