ABSTRACT:
An integrated memory device is proposed. The memory device includes a flash memory having an address parallelism and a data parallelism; the flash memory is partitioned into a plurality of blocks each one including a plurality of sectors, which can be erased individually. A Low Pin Count communication interface is used to receive a command from an external bus, which has a transfer parallelism lower than the address parallelism and the data parallelism; the command includes a selection field for selecting each sector of one or more blocks individually. A control unit then executes an operation corresponding to the command in respect of each selected sector.
