GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The Am29DL16xD family consists of 16 megabit, 3.0  
volt-only flash memory devices, organized as 1,048,576  
words of 16 bits each or 2,097,152 bytes of 8 bits each.  
Word mode data appears on DQ0–DQ15; byte mode  
data appears on DQ0–DQ7. The device is designed to  
be programmed in-system with the standard 3.0 volt  
VCC supply, and can also be programmed in standard  
EPROM programmers.  
both. Customer Lockable parts may utilize the SecSi  
Sector as bonus space, reading and writing like any  
other flash sector, or may permanently lock their own  
code there.  
DMS (Data Management Software) allows systems  
to easily take advantage of the advanced architecture  
of the simultaneous read/write product line by allowing  
removal of EEPROM devices. DMS will also allow the  
system software to be simplified, as it will perform all  
functions necessary to modify data in file structures,  
as opposed to single-byte modifications. To write or  
update a particular piece of data (a phone number or  
configuration data, for example), the user only needs  
to state which piece of data is to be updated, and  
where the updated data is located in the system. This  
is an advantage compared to systems where  
user-written software must keep track of the old data  
location, status, logical to physical translation of the  
data onto the Flash memory device (or memory de-  
vices), and more. Using DMS, user-written software  
does not need to interface with the Flash memory di-  
rectly. Instead, the user's software accesses the Flash  
memory by calling one of only six functions. AMD pro-  
vides this software to simplify system design and  
software integration efforts.  
The device is available with an access time of 70, 90,  
or 120 ns. The devices are offered in 48-pin TSOP,  
48-ball Fine-pitch BGA, 48-ball Very Thin Profile  
Fine-pitch BGA, and 64-ball Fortified BGA packages.  
Standard control pins—chip enable (CE#), write en-  
able (WE#), and output enable (OE#)—control normal  
read and write operations, and avoid bus contention  
issues.  
The device requires only a single 3.0 volt power sup-  
ply for both read and write functions. Internally  
generated and regulated voltages are provided for the  
program and erase operations.  
Simultaneous Read/Write Operations with  
Zero Latency  
The Simultaneous Read/Write architecture provides  
simultaneous operation by dividing the memory  
space into two banks. The device can improve overall  
system performance by allowing a host system to pro-  
gram or erase in one bank, then immediately and  
simultaneously read from the other bank, with zero la-  
tency. This releases the system from waiting for the  
completion of program or erase operations.  
The device offers complete compatibility with the  
JEDEC single-power-supply Flash command set  
standard. Commands are written to the command  
register using standard microprocessor write timings.  
Reading data out of the device is similar to reading  
from other Flash or EPROM devices.  
The host system can detect whether a program or  
erase operation is complete by using the device sta-  
tus bits: RY/BY# pin, DQ7 (Data# Polling) and  
DQ6/DQ2 (toggle bits). After a program or erase cycle  
has been completed, the device automatically returns  
to reading array data.  
The Am29DL16xD devices uses multiple bank archi-  
tectures to provide flexibility for different applications.  
Four devices are available with these bank sizes:  
Device  
DL161  
DL162  
DL163  
DL164  
Bank 1  
0.5 Mb  
2 Mb  
Bank 2  
15.5 Mb  
14 Mb  
12 Mb  
8 Mb  
The sector erase architecture allows memory sec-  
tors to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting  
the data contents of other sectors. The device is fully  
erased when shipped from the factory.  
4 Mb  
8 Mb  
Am29DL16xD Features  
Hardware data protection measures include a low  
VCC detector that automatically inhibits write opera-  
tions during power transitions. The hardware sector  
protection feature disables both program and erase  
operations in any combination of the sectors of mem-  
ory. This can be achieved in-system or via  
programming equipment.  
The SecSi(Secured Silicon) Sector is an extra sec-  
tor capable of being permanently locked by AMD or  
customers. The SecSi Sector Indicator Bit (DQ7) is  
permanently set to a 1 if the part is factory locked,  
and set to a 0 if customer lockable. This way, cus-  
tomer lockable parts can never be used to replace a  
factory locked part. Current version of device has 64  
Kbytes; future versions will have only 256 bytes.  
This should be considered during system design.  
The device offers two power-saving features. When  
addresses have been stable for a specified amount of  
time, the device enters the automatic sleep mode.  
The system can also place the device into the  
standby mode. Power consumption is greatly re-  
duced in both modes.  
Factory locked parts provide several options. The  
SecSi Sector may store a secure, random 16 byte  
ESN (Electronic Serial Number), customer code (pro-  
grammed through AMD’s ExpressFlash service), or

DEVICE BUS OPERATIONS  
This section describes the requirements and use of  
the device bus operations, which are initiated through  
the internal command register. The command register  
itself does not occupy any addressable memory loca-  
tion. The register is a latch used to store the  
commands, along with the address and data informa-  
tion needed to execute the command. The contents of  
the register serve as inputs to the internal state ma-  
chine. The state machine outputs dictate the function  
of the device. Table 1 lists the device bus operations,  
the inputs and control levels they require, and the re-  
sulting output. The following subsections describe  
each of these operations in further detail.

Notes:  
1. Addresses are A19:A0 in word mode (BYTE# = VIH), A19:A-1 in byte mode (BYTE# = VIL).  
2. The sector protect and sector unprotect functions may also be implemented via programming equipment. See the “Sector/Sector  
Block Protection and Unprotection” section.  
3. If WP#/ACC = VIL, the two outermost boot sectors remain protected. If WP#/ACC = VIH, the two outermost boot sector  
protection depends on whether they were last protected or unprotected using the method described in “Sector/Sector Block  
Protection and Unprotection”. If WP#/ACC = VHH, all sectors will be unprotected.  
Word/Byte Configuration  
Requirements for Reading Array Data  
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device data I/O  
pins operate in the byte or word configuration. If the  
BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘1’, the device is in word con-  
figuration, DQ0–DQ15 are active and controlled by  
CE# and OE#.  
To read array data from the outputs, the system must  
drive the CE# and OE# pins to VIL. CE# is the power  
control and selects the device. OE# is the output con-  
trol and gates array data to the output pins. WE#  
should remain at VIH. The BYTE# pin determines  
whether the device outputs array data in words or  
bytes.  
If the BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘0’, the device is in byte  
configuration, and only data I/O pins DQ0–DQ7 are  
active and controlled by CE# and OE#. The data I/O  
pins DQ8–DQ14 are tri-stated, and the DQ15 pin is  
used as an input for the LSB (A-1) address function.  
The internal state machine is set for reading array data  
upon device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This  
ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory  
content occurs during the power transition. No com-  
mand is necessary in this mode to obtain array data.  
Standard microprocessor read cycles that assert valid  
12  
Am29DL16xD  
May 26, 2004  
addresses on the device address inputs produce valid  
data on the device data outputs. Each bank remains  
enabled for read access until the command register  
contents are altered.  
VHH from the WP#/ACC pin returns the device to nor-  
mal operation. Note that the WP#/ACC pin must not be  
at VHH for operations other than accelerated program-  
ming, or device damage may result. In addition, the  
WP#/ACC pin must not be left floating or unconnected;  
inconsistent behavior of the device may result.  
See “Requirements for Reading Array Data” for more  
information. Refer to the AC Read-Only Operations  
table for timing specifications and to Figure 13 for the  
timing diagram. ICC1 in the DC Characteristics table  
represents the active current specification for reading  
array data.  
Autoselect Functions  
If the system writes the autoselect command se-  
quence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The  
system can then read autoselect codes from the inter-  
nal register (which is separate from the memory array)  
on DQ7–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings apply in  
this mode. Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autose-  
lect Command Sequence sections for more  
information.  
Writing Commands/Command Sequences  
To write a command or command sequence (which in-  
cludes programming data to the device and erasing  
sectors of memory), the system must drive WE# and  
CE# to VIL, and OE# to VIH.  
Simultaneous Read/Write Operations with  
Zero Latency  
For program operations, the BYTE# pin determines  
whether the device accepts program data in bytes or  
words. Refer to “Word/Byte Configuration” for more  
information.  
This device is capable of reading data from one bank  
of memory while programming or erasing in the other  
bank of memory. An erase operation may also be sus-  
pended to read from or program to another location  
within the same bank (except the sector being  
erased). Figure 20 shows how read and write cycles  
may be initiated for simultaneous operation with zero  
latency. ICC6 and ICC7 in the DC Characteristics table  
represent the current specifications for read-while-pro-  
gram and read-while-erase, respectively.  
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facili-  
tate faster programming. Once a bank enters the  
Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are re-  
quired to program a word or byte, instead of four. The  
“Word/Byte Configuration” section has details on pro-  
gramming data to the device using both standard and  
Unlock Bypass command sequences.  
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sec-  
tors, or the entire device. Tables 3–6 indicate the  
address space that each sector occupies. The device  
address space is divided into two banks: Bank 1 con-  
tains the boot/parameter sectors, and Bank 2 contains  
the larger, code sectors of uniform size. A “bank ad-  
dress” is the address bits required to uniquely select a  
bank. Similarly, a sector address” is the address bits  
required to uniquely select a sector.  
Standby Mode  
When the system is not reading or writing to the de-  
vice, it can place the device in the standby mode. In  
this mode, current consumption is greatly reduced,  
and the outputs are placed in the high impedance  
state, independent of the OE# input.  
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the  
CE# and RESET# pins are both held at VCC 0.3 V.  
(Note that this is a more restricted voltage range than  
VIH.) If CE# and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within  
VCC 0.3 V, the device will be in the standby mode,  
but the standby current will be greater. The device re-  
quires standard access time (tCE) for read access  
when the device is in either of these standby modes,  
before it is ready to read data.  
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the ac-  
tive current specification for the write mode. The AC  
Characteristics section contains timing specification  
tables and timing diagrams for write operations.  
Accelerated Program Operation  
The device offers accelerated program operations  
through the ACC function. This is one of two functions  
provided by the WP#/ACC pin. This function is prima-  
rily intended to allow faster manufacturing throughput  
at the factory.  
If the device is deselected during erasure or program-  
ming, the device draws active current until the  
operation is completed.  
If the system asserts VHH on this pin, the device auto-  
matically enters the aforementioned Unlock Bypass  
mode, temporarily unprotects any protected sectors,  
and uses the higher voltage on the pin to reduce the  
time required for program operations. The system  
would use a two-cycle program command sequence  
as required by the Unlock Bypass mode. Removing  
ICC3 in the DC Characteristics table represents the  
standby current specification.  
Automatic Sleep Mode  
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device en-  
ergy consumption. The device automatically enables  
this mode when addresses remain stable for tACC  
+

Am29DL16xD  
13  
30 ns. The automatic sleep mode is independent of  
the CE#, WE#, and OE# control signals. Standard ad-  
dress access timings provide new data when  
addresses are changed. While in sleep mode, output  
data is latched and always available to the system.  
ICC4 in the DC Characteristics table represents the  
automatic sleep mode current specification.  
The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset cir-  
cuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the Flash  
memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up firm-  
ware from the Flash memory.  
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase op-  
eration, the RY/BY# pin remains a “0” (busy) until the  
internal reset operation is complete, which requires a  
time of tREADY (during Embedded Algorithms). The sys-  
tem can thus monitor RY/BY# to determine whether  
the reset operation is complete. If RESET# is asserted  
when a program or erase operation is not executing  
(RY/BY# pin is “1”), the reset operation is completed  
within a time of tREADY (not during Embedded Algo-  
rithms). The system can read data tRH after the  
RESET# pin returns to VIH.  
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin  
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of re-  
setting the device to reading array data. When the  
RESET# pin is driven low for at least a period of tRP,  
the device immediately terminates any operation in  
progress, tristates all output pins, and ignores all  
read/write commands for the duration of the RESET#  
pulse. The device also resets the internal state ma-  
chine to reading array data. The operation that was  
interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is  
ready to accept another command sequence, to en-  
sure data integrity.  
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET# pa-  
rameters and to Figure 14 for the timing diagram.  
Output Disable Mode  
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is  
disabled. The output pins are placed in the high  
impedance state.  
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET#  
pulse. When RESET# is held at VSS 0.3 V, the device  
draws CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is held  
at VIL but not within VSS 0.3 V, the standby current will  
be greater.

the sector address must appear on the appropriate

shows the remaining address bits that are don’t care.

Autoselect Mode  
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and de-  
vice identification, and sector protection verification,  
through identifier codes output on DQ7–DQ0. This  
mode is primarily intended for programming equip-  
ment to automatically match a device to be  
programmed with its corresponding programming al-  
gorithm. However, the autoselect codes can also be  
accessed in-system through the command register.  
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host  
system can issue the autoselect command via the  
command register, as shown in Table 14. This method  
does not require VID. Refer to the Autoselect Com-  
mand Sequence section for more information.  
When using programming equipment, the autoselect  
mode requires VID (8.5 V to 12.5 V) on address pin A9.  
Address pins A6, A1, and A0 must be as shown in

The hardware sector protection feature disables both  
program and erase operations in any sector. The hard-  
ware sector unprotection feature re-enables both  
program and erase operations in previously protected  
sectors. Sector protection and unprotection can be im-  
plemented via two methods.  
The primary method requires VID on the RESET# pin  
only, and can be implemented either in-system or via  
programming equipment. Figure 2 shows the algo-  
rithms and Figure 25 shows the timing diagram. This  
method uses standard microprocessor bus cycle tim-  
ing. For sector unprotect, all unprotected sectors must  
first be protected prior to the first sector unprotect  
write cycle.  
The sector unprotect algorithm unprotects all sectors  
in parallel. All previously protected sectors must be in-  
dividually re-protected. To change data in protected  
sectors efficiently, the temporary sector unprotect  
function is available. See “Temporary Sector/Sector  
Block Unprotect”.  
The alternate method intended only for programming  
equipment requires VID on address pin A9 and OE#.  
This method is compatible with programmer routines  
written for earlier 3.0 volt-only AMD flash devices.  
Publication number 22243 contains further details;  
contact an AMD representative to request a copy.  
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected.  
AMD offers the option of programming and protecting  
sectors at its factory prior to shipping the device

through AMD’s ExpressFlash™ Service. Contact an  
AMD representative for details.  
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previ-  
ously protected sectors to change data in-system. The  
Sector Unprotect mode is activated by setting the RE-  
SET# pin to VID (8.5 V – 12.5 V). During this mode,  
formerly protected sectors can be programmed or  
erased by selecting the sector addresses. Once VID is  
removed from the RESET# pin, all the previously pro-  
tected sectors are protected again. Figure 1 shows the  
algorithm, and Figure 24 shows the timing diagrams,  
for this feature.  
It is possible to determine whether a sector is pro-  
tected or unprotected. See the Autoselect Mode  
section for details.  
Write Protect (WP#)  
The Write Protect function provides a hardware  
method of protecting certain boot sectors without  
using VID. This function is one of two provided by the  
WP#/ACC pin.  
If the system asserts VIL on the WP#/ACC pin, the de-  
vice disables program and erase functions in the two  
“outermost” 8 Kbyte boot sectors independently of  
whether those sectors were protected or unprotected  
using the method described in “Sector/Sector Block  
Protection and Unprotection”. The two outermost 8  
Kbyte boot sectors are the two sectors containing the  
lowest addresses in a bottom-boot-configured device,  
or the two sectors containing the highest addresses in  
a top-boot-configured device.

If the system asserts VIH on the WP#/ACC pin, the de-  
vice reverts to whether the two outermost 8 Kbyte boot  
sectors were last set to be protected or unprotected.  
That is, sector protection or unprotection for these two  
sectors depends on whether they were last protected  
or unprotected using the method described in “Sec-  
tor/Sector Block Protection and Unprotection”.

SecSi(Secured Silicon) Sector Flash  
Memory Region  
The SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector feature provides a  
Flash memory region that enables permanent part  
identification through an Electronic Serial Number  
(ESN). The SecSi Sector uses an Indicator Bit (DQ7)  
to indicate whether or not the sector is locked when  
shipped from the factory. This bit is permanently set at  
the factory and cannot be changed, which prevents  
cloning of a factory locked part. This ensures the secu-  
rity of the ESN once the product is shipped to the field.  
Current version of device has 64 Kbytes; future  
versions will have only 256 bytes. This should be  
considered during system design.  
Customers may opt to have their code programmed by  
AMD through the AMD ExpressFlash service. AMD  
programs the customer’s code, with or without the ran-  
dom ESN. The devices are then shipped from AMD’s  
factory with the SecSi Sector permanently locked.  
Contact an AMD representative for details on using  
AMD’s ExpressFlash service.  
Customer Lockable: SecSi Sector NOT  
Programmed or Protected At the Factory  
If the security feature is not required, the SecSi Sector  
can be treated as an additional Flash memory space,  
expanding the size of the available Flash array. Current  
version of device has 64 Kbytes; future versions  
will have only 256 bytes. This should be consid-  
ered during system design. The SecSi Sector can be  
read, programmed, and erased as often as required.  
(Note that in upcoming versions of this device, the  
SecSi Sector erase function will not be available.) Note  
that the accelerated programming (ACC) and unlock  
bypass functions are not available when programming  
the SecSi Sector.  
AMD offers the device with the SecSi Sector either  
factory locked or customer lockable. The fac-  
tory-locked version is always protected when shipped  
from the factory, and has the SecSi Sector Indicator  
Bit permanently set to a “1.The customer-lockable  
version is shipped with the unprotected, allowing cus-  
tomers to utilize the that sector in any manner they  
choose. The customer-lockable version has the SecSi  
Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a “0.Thus, the  
SecSi Sector Indicator Bit prevents customer-lockable  
devices from being used to replace devices that are  
factory locked.  
The SecSi Sector area can be protected using one of the  
following procedures:  
The system accesses the SecSi Sector through a  
command sequence (see “Enter SecSi Sector/Exit  
SecSi Sector Command Sequence”). After the system  
has written the Enter SecSi Sector command se-  
quence, it may read the SecSi Sector by using the  
addresses normally occupied by the boot sectors. This  
mode of operation continues until the system issues  
the Exit SecSi Sector command sequence, or until  
power is removed from the device. On power-up, or  
following a hardware reset, the device reverts to send-  
ing commands to the boot sectors.  
Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector Region  
command sequence, and then follow the in-system  
sector protect algorithm as shown in Figure 2, ex-  
cept that RESET# may be at either VIH or VID. This  
allows in-system protection of the without raising  
any device pin to a high voltage. Note that this  
method is only applicable to the SecSi Sector.  
Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector Region  
command sequence, and then use the alternate  
method of sector protection described in the “Sec-  
tor/Sector Block Protection and Unprotection”.  
Factory Locked: SecSi Sector Programmed and  
Protected At the Factory  
Once the SecSi Sector is locked and verified, the sys-  
tem must write the Exit SecSi Sector Region  
command sequence to return to reading and writing  
the remainder of the array.  
In a factory locked device, the SecSi Sector is pro-  
tected when the device is shipped from the factory.  
The SecSi Sector cannot be modified in any way. The  
device is available preprogrammed with one of the  
following:  
The SecSi Sector protection must be used with cau-  
tion since, once protected, there is no procedure  
available for unprotecting the SecSi Sector area and  
none of the bits in the SecSi Sector memory space  
can be modified in any way.

Both a random, secure ESN and customer code  
Hardware Data Protection  
through the ExpressFlash service.  
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles  
for programming or erasing provides data protection  
against inadvertent writes (refer to Table 14 for com-  
mand definitions). In addition, the following hardware  
data protection measures prevent accidental erasure  
or programming, which might otherwise be caused by  
In devices that have an ESN, a Bottom Boot device will  
have the 16-byte ESN in the lowest addressable mem-  
ory area at addresses 00000h–00007h in word mode  
(or 000000h–00000Fh in byte mode). In the Top Boot  
device the starting address of the ESN will be at the

spurious system level signals during VCC power-up  
and power-down transitions, or from system noise.  
COMMON FLASH MEMORY INTERFACE  
(CFI)  
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification out-  
lines device and host system software interrogation  
handshake, which allows specific vendor-specified  
software algorithms to be used for entire families of  
devices. Software support can then be device-inde-  
pendent, JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and  
backward-compatible for the specified flash device  
families. Flash vendors can standardize their existing  
interfaces for long-term compatibility.  
Low VCC Write Inhibit  
When VCC is less than VLKO, the device does not ac-  
cept any write cycles. This protects data during VCC  
power-up and power-down. The command register  
and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled,  
and the device resets to reading array data. Subse-  
quent writes are ignored until VCC is greater than VLKO  
The system must provide the proper signals to the  
control pins to prevent unintentional writes when VCC  
.
is greater than VLKO  
.
This device enters the CFI Query mode when the sys-  
tem writes the CFI Query command, 98h, to address  
55h in word mode (or address AAh in byte mode), any  
time the device is ready to read array data. The sys-  
tem can read CFI information at the addresses given  
in Tables 10–13. To terminate reading CFI data, the  
system must write the reset command.  
Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection  
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE#  
or WE# do not initiate a write cycle.  
Logical Inhibit  
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# =  
VIL, CE# = VIH or WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle,  
CE# and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a  
logical one.  
The system can also write the CFI query command  
when the device is in the autoselect mode. The device  
enters the CFI query mode, and the system can read  
CFI data at the addresses given in Tables 10–13. The  
system must write the reset command to return the  
device to the autoselect mode.  
Power-Up Write Inhibit  
If WE# = CE# = VIL and OE# = VIH during power up,  
the device does not accept commands on the rising  
edge of WE#. The internal state machine is automati-  
cally reset to reading array data on power-up.

COMMAND DEFINITIONS  
Writing specific address and data commands or se-  
quences into the command register initiates device  
operations. Table 14 defines the valid register com-  
mand sequences. Writing incorrect address and  
data values or writing them in the improper se-  
quence may place the device in an unknown state. A  
reset command is then required to return the device to  
reading array data.  
the program command sequence is written to a bank  
that is in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset  
command returns that bank to the erase-sus-  
pend-read mode. Once programming begins, however,  
the device ignores reset commands until the operation  
is complete.  
The reset command may be written between the se-  
quence cycles in an autoselect command sequence.  
Once in the autoselect mode, the reset command  
must be written to return to reading array data. If a  
bank entered the autoselect mode while in the Erase  
Suspend mode, writing the reset command returns  
that bank to the erase-suspend-read mode.  
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE#  
or CE#, whichever happens later. All data is latched on  
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever happens  
first. Refer to the AC Characteristics section for timing  
diagrams.  
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,  
writing the reset command returns the banks to read-  
ing array data (or erase-suspend-read mode if that  
bank was in Erase Suspend).  
Reading Array Data  
The device is automatically set to reading array data  
after device power-up. No commands are required to  
retrieve data. Each bank is ready to read array data  
after completing an Embedded Program or Embedded  
Erase algorithm.  
Autoselect Command Sequence  
The autoselect command sequence allows the host  
system to access the manufacturer and device codes,  
and determine whether or not a sector is protected.  
Table 14 shows the address and data requirements.  
This method is an alternative to that shown in Table 7,  
which is intended for PROM programmers and re-  
quires VID on address pin A9. The autoselect  
command sequence may be written to an address  
within a bank that is either in the read or  
erase-suspend-read mode. The autoselect command  
may not be written while the device is actively pro-  
gramming or erasing in the other bank.  
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,  
the corresponding bank enters the erase-sus-  
pend-read mode, after which the system can read  
data from any non-erase-suspended sector within the  
same bank. After completing a programming operation  
in the Erase Suspend mode, the system may once  
again read array data with the same exception. See  
the Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands sec-  
tion for more information.  
The system must issue the reset command to return a  
bank to the read (or erase-suspend-read) mode if DQ5  
goes high during an active program or erase opera-  
tion, or if the bank is in the autoselect mode. See the  
next section, Reset Command, for more information.  
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by first  
writing two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third  
write cycle that contains the bank address and the au-  
toselect command. The bank then enters the  
autoselect mode. The system may read at any ad-  
dress within the same bank any number of times  
without initiating another autoselect command  
sequence:  
See also Requirements for Reading Array Data in the  
Device Bus Operations section for more information.  
The Read-Only Operations table provides the read pa-  
rameters, and Figure 13 shows the timing diagram.  
Reset Command  
Writing the reset command resets the banks to the  
read or erase-suspend-read mode. Address bits are  
don’t cares for this command.  
A read cycle at address (BA)XX00h (where BA is  
the bank address) returns the manufacturer code.  
A read cycle at address (BA)XX01h in word mode  
(or (BA)XX02h in byte mode) returns the device  
code.  
The reset command may be written between the se-  
quence cycles in an erase command sequence before  
erasing begins. This resets the bank to which the sys-  
tem was writing to reading array data. Once erasure  
begins, however, the device ignores reset commands  
until the operation is complete.  
A read cycle to an address containing a sector ad-  
dress (SA) within the same bank, and the address  
02h on A7–A0 in word mode (or the address 04h on  
A6–A-1 in byte mode) returns 01h if the sector is  
protected, or 00h if it is unprotected. (Refer to Ta-  
bles 3–6 for valid sector addresses).  
The reset command may be written between the  
sequence cycles in a program command sequence  
before programming begins. This resets the bank to  
which the system was writing to reading array data. If  
The system must write the reset command to return to  
reading array data (or erase-suspend-read mode if the  
bank was previously in Erase Suspend).

DQ6 status bits to indicate the operation was success-  
ful. However, a succeeding read will show that the  
data is still “0.Only erase operations can convert a “0”  
to a “1.”  
Enter SecSiSector/Exit SecSi Sector  
Command Sequence  
The system can access the SecSi Sector region by is-  
suing the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector command  
sequence. The device continues to access the SecSi  
Sector region until the system issues the four-cycle  
Exit SecSi Sector command sequence. The Exit SecSi  
Sector command sequence returns the device to nor-  
mal operation. Table 14 shows the address and data  
requirements for both command sequences. See also  
“SecSi Sector Flash Memory Region” for further infor-  
mation. Note that a hardware reset (RESET#=VIL) will  
reset the device to reading array data.  
Unlock Bypass Command Sequence  
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to pro-  
gram bytes or words to a bank faster than using the  
standard program command sequence. The unlock  
bypass command sequence is initiated by first writing  
two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third write  
cycle containing the unlock bypass command, 20h.  
The device then enters the unlock bypass mode. A  
two-cycle unlock bypass program command sequence  
is all that is required to program in this mode. The first  
cycle in this sequence contains the unlock bypass pro-  
gram command, A0h; the second cycle contains the  
program address and data. Additional data is pro-  
grammed in the same manner. This mode dispenses  
with the initial two unlock cycles required in the stan-  
dard program command sequence, resulting in faster  
total programming time. Table 14 shows the require-  
ments for the command sequence.  
Byte/Word Program Command Sequence  
The system may program the device by word or byte,  
depending on the state of the BYTE# pin. Program-  
ming is a four-bus-cycle operation. The program  
command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock  
write cycles, followed by the program set-up com-  
mand. The program address and data are written next,  
which in turn initiate the Embedded Program algo-  
rithm. The system is not required to provide further  
controls or timings. The device automatically provides  
internally generated program pulses and verifies the  
programmed cell margin. Table 14 shows the address  
and data requirements for the byte program command  
sequence.  
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock By-  
pass Program and Unlock Bypass Reset commands  
are valid. To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system  
must issue the two-cycle unlock bypass reset com-  
mand sequence. The device then returns to reading  
array data.  
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete,  
that bank then returns to reading array data and ad-  
dresses are no longer latched. The system can  
determine the status of the program operation by  
using DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#. Refer to the Write Oper-  
ation Status section for information on these status  
bits.  
The device offers accelerated program operations  
through the WP#/ACC pin. When the system asserts  
VHH on the WP#/ACC pin, the device automatically en-  
ters the Unlock Bypass mode. The system may then  
write the two-cycle Unlock Bypass program command  
sequence. The device uses the higher voltage on the  
WP#/ACC pin to accelerate the operation. Note that  
the WP#/ACC pin must not be at VHH any operation  
other than accelerated programming, or device dam-  
age may result. In addition, the WP#/ACC pin must not  
be left floating or unconnected; inconsistent behavior  
of the device may result.  
Any commands written to the device during the Em-  
bedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a  
hardware reset immediately terminates the program  
operation. The program command sequence should  
be reinitiated once that bank has returned to reading  
array data, to ensure data integrity.  
Figure 3 illustrates the algorithm for the program oper-  
ation. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations  
table in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,  
and Figure 17 for timing diagrams.  
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across  
sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed  
from “0” back to a “1.Attempting to do so may  
cause that bank to set DQ5 = 1, or cause the DQ7 and

occurs, the chip erase command sequence should be

Write Program  
Command Sequence  
Sector Erase Command Sequence  
Sector erase is a six bus cycle operation. The sector  
erase command sequence is initiated by writing two  
unlock cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two ad-  
ditional unlock cycles are written, and are then  
followed by the address of the sector to be erased, and  
the sector erase command. Table 14 shows the ad-  
dress and data requirements for the sector erase  
command sequence.

The device does not require the system to preprogram

After the command sequence is written, a sector erase  
time-out of 50 µs occurs. During the time-out period,  
additional sector addresses and sector erase com-  
mands within the bank may be written. Loading the  
sector erase buffer may be done in any sequence, and  
the number of sectors may be from one sector to all  
sectors. The time between these additional cycles  
must be less than 50 µs, otherwise erasure may begin.  
Any sector erase address and command following the  
exceeded time-out may or may not be accepted. It is  
recommended that processor interrupts be disabled  
during this time to ensure all commands are accepted.  
The interrupts can be re-enabled after the last Sector  
Erase command is written. Any command other than  
Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the  
time-out period resets that bank to reading array  
data. The system must rewrite the command se-  
quence and any additional addresses and commands.  
Programming  
Completed  
Note: See Table 14 for program command sequence.  
Figure 3. Program Operation  
Chip Erase Command Sequence  
Chip erase is a six bus cycle operation. The chip erase  
command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock  
cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two additional  
unlock write cycles are then followed by the chip erase  
command, which in turn invokes the Embedded Erase  
algorithm. The device does not require the system to  
preprogram prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algo-  
rithm automatically preprograms and verifies the entire  
memory for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical  
erase. The system is not required to provide any con-  
trols or timings during these operations. Table 14  
shows the address and data requirements for the chip  
erase command sequence.  
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sec-  
tor erase timer has timed out (See the section on DQ3:  
Sector Erase Timer.). The time-out begins from the ris-  
ing edge of the final WE# pulse in the command  
sequence.  
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete,  
that bank returns to reading array data and addresses  
are no longer latched. The system can determine the  
status of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6,  
DQ2, or RY/BY#. Refer to the Write Operation Status  
section for information on these status bits.  
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the  
bank returns to reading array data and addresses are  
no longer latched. Note that while the Embedded  
Erase operation is in progress, the system can read  
data from the non-erasing bank. The system can de-  
termine the status of the erase operation by reading  
DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY# in the erasing bank. Refer  
Any commands written during the chip erase operation  
are ignored. However, note that a hardware reset im-

program operation using the DQ7 or DQ6 status bits,  
just as in the standard Byte Program operation.  
Refer to the Write Operation Status section for more  
information.  
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the  
Erase Suspend command is valid. All other com-  
mands are ignored. However, note that a hardware  
reset immediately terminates the erase operation. If  
that occurs, the sector erase command sequence  
should be reinitiated once that bank has returned to  
reading array data, to ensure data integrity.  
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also  
issue the autoselect command sequence. Refer to the  
Autoselect Mode and Autoselect Command Sequence  
sections for details.  
To resume the sector erase operation, the system  
must write the Erase Resume command. The bank  
address of the erase-suspended bank is required  
when writing this command. Further writes of the Re-  
sume command are ignored. Another Erase Suspend  
command can be written after the chip has resumed  
erasing.  
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-  
tion. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations  
tables in the AC Characteristics section for parame-  
ters, and Figure 19 section for timing diagrams.  
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume  
Commands  
The Erase Suspend command, B0h, allows the sys-  
tem to interrupt a sector erase operation and then read  
data from, or program data to, any sector not selected  
for erasure. The bank address is required when writing  
this command. This command is valid only during the  
sector erase operation, including the 50 µs time-out  
period during the sector erase command sequence.  
The Erase Suspend command is ignored if written dur-  
ing the chip erase operation or Embedded Program  
algorithm.  
START  
Write Erase  
Command Sequence  
(Notes 1, 2)  
When the Erase Suspend command is written during  
the sector erase operation, the device requires a max-  
imum of 20 µs to suspend the erase operation.  
However, when the Erase Suspend command is writ-  
ten during the sector erase time-out, the device  
immediately terminates the time-out period and sus-  
pends the erase operation.

WRITE OPERATION STATUS  
The device provides several bits to determine the sta-  
tus of a program or erase operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5,  
DQ6, and DQ7. Table 15 and the following subsec-  
tions describe the function of these bits. DQ7 and DQ6  
each offer a method for determining whether a pro-  
gram or erase operation is complete or in progress.  
The device also provides a hardware-based output  
signal, RY/BY#, to determine whether an Embedded  
Program or Erase operation is in progress or has been  
completed.  
pleted the program or erase operation and DQ7 has  
valid data, the data outputs on DQ0–DQ6 may be still  
invalid. Valid data on DQ0–DQ7 will appear on suc-  
cessive read cycles.  
Table 15 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7.  
Figure 5 shows the Data# Polling algorithm. Figure 21  
in the AC Characteristics section shows the Data#  
Polling timing diagram.  
DQ7: Data# Polling  
START  
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host sys-  
tem whether an Embedded Program or Erase  
algorithm is in progress or completed, or whether a  
bank is in Erase Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after  
the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command  
sequence.  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
Addr = VA  
During the Embedded Program algorithm, the device  
outputs on DQ7 the complement of the datum pro-  
grammed to DQ7. This DQ7 status also applies to  
programming during Erase Suspend. When the Em-  
bedded Program algorithm is complete, the device  
outputs the datum programmed to DQ7. The system  
must provide the program address to read valid status  
information on DQ7. If a program address falls within a  
protected sector, Data# Polling on DQ7 is active for  
approximately 1 µs, then that bank returns to reading  
array data.  
Yes  
DQ7 = Data?  
No  
No  
DQ5 = 1?  
Yes  
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling  
produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase  
algorithm is complete, or if the bank enters the Erase  
Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a “1” on DQ7.  
The system must provide an address within any of the  
sectors selected for erasure to read valid status infor-  
mation on DQ7.  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
Addr = VA  
Yes  
DQ7 = Data?  
After an erase command sequence is written, if all  
sectors selected for erasing are protected, Data# Poll-  
ing on DQ7 is active for approximately 100 µs, then the  
bank returns to reading array data. If not all selected  
sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm  
erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the se-  
lected sectors that are protected. However, if the  
system reads DQ7 at an address within a protected  
sector, the status may not be valid.  
No  
PASS  
FAIL  
Notes:  
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector  
erase operation, a valid address is any sector address  
within the sector being erased. During chip erase, a  
valid address is any non-protected sector address.  
Just prior to the completion of an Embedded Program  
or Erase operation, DQ7 may change asynchronously  
with DQ0–DQ6 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted  
low. That is, the device may change from providing  
status information to valid data on DQ7. Depending on  
when the system samples the DQ7 output, it may read  
the status or valid data. Even if the device has com-  
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = “1” because  
DQ7 may change simultaneously with DQ5.

DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program  
mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Pro-  
gram algorithm is complete.  
RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#  
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin  
which indicates whether an Embedded Algorithm is in  
progress or complete. The RY/BY# status is valid after  
the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command  
sequence. Since RY/BY# is an open-drain output, sev-  
eral RY/BY# pins can be tied together in parallel with a  
Table 15 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on DQ6.

timing diagrams. Figure 23 shows the differences be-  
tween DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the

pull-up resistor to VCC  
.
If the output is low (Busy), the device is actively eras-  
ing or programming. (This includes programming in  
the Erase Suspend mode.) If the output is high  
(Ready), the device is reading array data, the standby  
mode, or one of the banks is in the erase-sus-  
pend-read mode.  
START  
Table 15 shows the outputs for RY/BY#.  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
DQ6: Toggle Bit I  
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Embedded  
Program or Erase algorithm is in progress or com-  
plete, or whether the device has entered the Erase  
Suspend mode. Toggle Bit I may be read at any ad-  
dress, and is valid after the rising edge of the final  
WE# pulse in the command sequence (prior to the  
program or erase operation), and during the sector  
erase time-out.  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
No  
Toggle Bit  
= Toggle?  
During an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm op-  
eration, successive read cycles to any address cause  
DQ6 to toggle. The system may use either OE# or  
CE# to control the read cycles. When the operation is  
complete, DQ6 stops toggling.  
Yes  
No  
DQ5 = 1?  
Yes  
After an erase command sequence is written, if all  
sectors selected for erasing are protected, DQ6 tog-  
gles for approximately 100 µs, then returns to reading  
array data. If not all selected sectors are protected, the  
Embedded Erase algorithm erases the unprotected  
sectors, and ignores the selected sectors that are  
protected.  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
Twice  
The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to deter-  
mine whether a sector is actively erasing or is  
erase-suspended. When the device is actively erasing  
(that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm is in progress),  
DQ6 toggles. When the device enters the Erase Sus-  
pend mode, DQ6 stops toggling. However, the system  
must also use DQ2 to determine which sectors are  
erasing or erase-suspended. Alternatively, the system  
can use DQ7 (see the subsection on DQ7: Data#  
Polling).

Note: The system should recheck the toggle bit even if DQ5

more information.  
If a program address falls within a protected sector,  
DQ6 toggles for approximately 1 µs after the program  
command sequence is written, then returns to reading  
array data.

cles, determining the status as described in the  
previous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to  
perform other system tasks. In this case, the system  
must start at the beginning of the algorithm when it re-  
turns to determine the status of the operation (top of  
Figure 6).  
DQ2: Toggle Bit II  
The “Toggle Bit II” on DQ2, when used with DQ6, indi-  
cates whether a particular sector is actively erasing  
(that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm is in progress),  
or whether that sector is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit  
II is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in  
the command sequence.  
DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits  
DQ2 toggles when the system reads at addresses  
within those sectors that have been selected for era-  
sure. (The system may use either OE# or CE# to  
control the read cycles.) But DQ2 cannot distinguish  
whether the sector is actively erasing or is erase-sus-  
pended. DQ6, by comparison, indicates whether the  
device is actively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but  
cannot distinguish which sectors are selected for era-  
sure. Thus, both status bits are required for sector and  
mode information. Refer to Table 15 to compare out-  
puts for DQ2 and DQ6.  
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time  
has exceeded a specified internal pulse count limit.  
Under these conditions DQ5 produces a “1,indicating  
that the program or erase cycle was not successfully  
completed.  
The device may output a “1” on DQ5 if the system tries  
to program a “1” to a location that was previously pro-  
grammed to “0.Only an erase operation can  
change a “0” back to a “1.Under this condition, the  
device halts the operation, and when the timing limit  
has been exceeded, DQ5 produces a “1.”  
Figure 6 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart  
form, and the section “DQ2: Toggle Bit II” explains the  
algorithm. See also the DQ6: Toggle Bit I subsection.  
Figure 22 shows the toggle bit timing diagram. Figure  
23 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in  
graphical form.  
Under both these conditions, the system must write  
the reset command to return to reading array data (or  
to the erase-suspend-read mode if a bank was previ-  
ously in the erase-suspend-program mode).  
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer  
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2  
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the  
system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not  
erasure has begun. (The sector erase timer does not  
apply to the chip erase command.) If additional  
sectors are selected for erasure, the entire time-out  
also applies after each additional sector erase com-  
mand. When the time-out period is complete, DQ3  
switches from a “0” to a “1.If the time between addi-  
tional sector erase commands from the system can be  
assumed to be less than 50 µs, the system need not  
monitor DQ3. See also the Sector Erase Command  
Sequence section.  
Refer to Figure 6 for the following discussion. When-  
ever the system initially begins reading toggle bit  
status, it must read DQ7–DQ0 at least twice in a row  
to determine whether a toggle bit is toggling. Typically,  
the system would note and store the value of the tog-  
gle bit after the first read. After the second read, the  
system would compare the new value of the toggle bit  
with the first. If the toggle bit is not toggling, the device  
has completed the program or erase operation. The  
system can read array data on DQ7–DQ0 on the fol-  
lowing read cycle.  
After the sector erase command is written, the system  
should read the status of DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6  
(Toggle Bit I) to ensure that the device has accepted  
the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is  
“1,the Embedded Erase algorithm has begun; all fur-  
ther commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored  
until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,the  
device will accept additional sector erase commands.  
To ensure the command has been accepted, the sys-  
tem software should check the status of DQ3 prior to  
and following each subsequent sector erase com-  
mand. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the  
last command might not have been accepted.  
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system  
determines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the sys-  
tem also should note whether the value of DQ5 is high  
(see the section on DQ5). If it is, the system should  
then determine again whether the toggle bit is tog-  
gling, since the toggle bit may have stopped toggling  
just as DQ5 went high. If the toggle bit is no longer  
toggling, the device has successfully completed the  
program or erase operation. If it is still toggling, the de-  
vice did not completed the operation successfully, and  
the system must write the reset command to return to  
reading array data.  
The remaining scenario is that the system initially de-  
termines that the toggle bit is toggling and DQ5 has  
not gone high. The system may continue to monitor  
the toggle bit and DQ5 through successive read cy-  
Table 15 shows the status of DQ3 relative to the other  
status bits.

Notes:  
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 3.0 V VCC, 1,000,000 cycles. Additionally,  
programming typicals assume checkerboard pattern.  
2. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 2.7 V, 1,000,000 cycles.  
3. The typical chip programming time is considerably less than the maximum chip programming time listed, since most bytes  
program faster than the maximum program times listed.  
4. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00h before erasure.  
5. System-level overhead is the time required to execute the two- or four-bus-cycle sequence for the program command. See Table  
14 for further information on command definitions.  
6. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 1,000,000 cycles.
