General Description
The Am29SL400C is an 4Mbit, 1.8 V volt-only Flash memory
organized as 524,288 bytes or 262,144 words. The device is
offered in 48-pin TSOP and 48-ball FBGA packages. The
word-wide data (x16) appears on DQ15–DQ0; the byte-wide
(x8) data appears on DQ7–DQ0. This device is designed to
be programmed and erased in-system with a single 1.8 volt
VCC supply. No VPP is required for write or erase operations.
The device can also be programmed in standard EPROM
programmers.
The host system can detect whether a program or erase op-
eration is complete by observing the RY/BY# pin, or by read-
ing the DQ7 (Data# Polling) and DQ6 (toggle) status bits.
After a program or erase cycle has been completed, the de-
vice is ready to read array data or accept another command.
The sector erase architecture allows memory sectors to be
erased and reprogrammed without affecting the data con-
tents of other sectors. The device is fully erased when
shipped from the factory.
The standard device offers access times of 100, 110, 120,
and 150 ns, allowing high speed microprocessors to operate
without wait states. To eliminate bus contention the device
has separate chip enable (CE#), write enable (WE#) and
output enable (OE#) controls.
Hardware data protection measures include a low VCC de-
tector that automatically inhibits write operations during
power transitions. The hardware sector protection feature
disables both program and erase operations in any combina-
tion of the sectors of memory. This can be achieved in-sys-
tem or via programming equipment.
The device requires only a single 1.8 volt power supply for
both read and write functions. Internally generated and regu-
lated voltages are provided for the program and erase opera-
tions.
The Erase Suspend feature enables the user to put erase
on hold for any period of time to read data from, or program
data to, any sector that is not selected for erasure. True
background erase can thus be achieved.
The device is entirely command set compatible with the
JEDEC single-power-supply Flash standard. Commands
are written to the command register using standard micro-
processor write timings. Register contents serve as input to
an internal state-machine that controls the erase and pro-
gramming circuitry. Write cycles also internally latch ad-
dresses and data needed for the programming and erase
operations. Reading data out of the device is similar to read-
ing from other Flash or EPROM devices.
The hardware RESET# pin terminates any operation in
progress and resets the internal state machine to reading
array data. The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset
circuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the device,
enabling the system microprocessor to read the boot-up
firmware from the Flash memory.
The device offers two power-saving features. When ad-
dresses 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 con-
sumption is greatly reduced in both these modes.
Device programming occurs by executing the program com-
mand sequence. This initiates the Embedded Program al-
gorithm—an internal algorithm that automatically times the
program pulse widths and verifies proper cell margin. The
Unlock Bypass mode facilitates faster programming times
by requiring only two write cycles to program data instead of
four.
AMD’s Flash technology combines years of Flash memory
manufacturing experience to produce the highest levels of
quality, reliability and cost effectiveness. The device electri-
cally erases all bits within a sector simultaneously via
Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is programmed using
hot electron injection.
Device erasure occurs by executing the erase command se-
quence. This initiates the Embedded Erase algorithm—an
internal algorithm that automatically preprograms the array
(if it is not already programmed) before executing the erase
operation. During erase, the device automatically times the
erase pulse widths and verifies proper cell margin.

DEVICE BUS OPERATIONS
This section describes the requirements and use of the de-
vice bus operations, which are initiated through the internal
command register. The command register itself does not oc-
cupy any addressable memory location. The register is com-
posed of latches that store the commands, along with the
address and data information needed to execute the com-
mand. The contents of the register serve as inputs to the in-
ternal state machine. The state machine outputs dictate the
function of the device. Table 1 lists the device bus opera-
tions, the inputs and control levels they require, and the re-
sulting output. The following subsections describe each of
these operations in further detail.

figuration, 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.
See Reading Array Data‚ on page 15 for more information.
Refer to the AC Read Operations table for timing specifica-
tions and to Figure 14‚ on page 28 for the timing diagram.
ICC1 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active
current specification for reading array data.
Requirements for Reading Array Data
Writing Commands/Command Sequences
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 control 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.
To write a command or command sequence (which includes
programming data to the device and erasing sectors of
memory), the system must drive WE# and CE# to VIL, and
OE# to VIH.
For program operations, the BYTE# pin determines whether
the device accepts program data in bytes or words. Refer
to Word/Byte Configuration‚ on page 9 for more information.
The internal state machine is set for reading array data upon
device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This ensures

faster programming. Once the device enters the Unlock By-
pass mode, only two write cycles are required to program a
word or byte, instead of four. The Word/Byte Program Com-
mand Sequence‚ on page 15 has details on programming
data to the device using both standard and Unlock Bypass
command sequences.
ICC3 in DC Characteristics‚ on page 24 represents the
standby current specification.
Automatic Sleep Mode
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sectors, or
the entire device. Table 2 on page 11 and Table 3 on
page 11 indicate the address space that each sector occu-
pies. A sector address consists of the address bits required
to uniquely select a sector. Command Definitions‚ on
page 18 has details on erasing a sector or the entire chip, or
suspending/resuming the erase operation.
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device energy
consumption. The device automatically enables this mode
when addresses remain stable for tACC + 50 ns. The auto-
matic sleep mode is independent of the CE#, WE#, and OE#
control signals. Standard address access timings provide
new data when addresses are changed. While in sleep
mode, output data is latched and always available to the sys-
tem. ICC4 in the DC Characteristics table represents the au-
tomatic sleep mode current specification.
After the system writes the autoselect command sequence,
the device enters the autoselect mode. The system can then
read autoselect codes from the internal register (which is
separate from the memory array) on DQ7–DQ0. Standard
read cycle timings apply in this mode. Refer to Autoselect
Mode‚ on page 11 and Autoselect Command Sequence‚ on
page 15 for more information.
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting
the device to reading array data. When the RESET# pin is
driven low for at least a period of tRP, the device immedi-
ately terminates any operation in progress, tristates all out-
put pins, and ignores all read/write commands for the
duration of the RESET# pulse. The device also resets the in-
ternal state machine to reading array data. The operation
that was interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is
ready to accept another command sequence, to ensure data
integrity.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active
current specification for the write mode. The AC Character-
istics‚ on page 28 contains timing specification tables and
timing diagrams for write operations.
Program and Erase Operation Status
During an erase or program operation, the system may
check the status of the operation by reading the status bits
on DQ7–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings and ICC read
specifications apply. Refer to Write Operation Status‚ on
page 19 for more information, and to AC Characteristics‚ on
page 28 for timing diagrams.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET# pulse.
When RESET# is held at VSS 0.2 V, the device draws
CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is held at VIL but
not within VSS 0.2 V, the standby current is greater.
The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset circuitry. A
system reset would thus also reset the Flash memory, en-
abling the system to read the boot-up firmware from the
Flash memory.
Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the device, it
can place the device in the standby mode. In this mode, cur-
rent consumption is greatly reduced, and the outputs are
placed in the high impedance state, independent of the OE#
input.
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase operation,
the RY/BY# pin remains a 0 (busy) until the internal reset op-
eration is complete, which requires a time of tREADY (during
Embedded Algorithms). The system can thus monitor
RY/BY# to determine whether the reset operation is com-
plete. If RESET# is asserted when a program or erase oper-
ation is not executing (RY/BY# pin is 1), the reset operation
is completed within a time of tREADY (not during Embedded
Algorithms). The system can read data tRH after the RE-
SET# pin returns to VIH.
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the CE#
and RESET# pins are both held at VCC ± 0.2 V. (Note that
this is a more restricted voltage range than VIH.) If CE# and
RESET# are held at VIH, but not within VCC ± 0.2 V, the de-
vice will be in the standby mode, but the standby current will
be greater. The device requires standard access time (tCE
)
for read access when the device is in either of these standby
modes, before it is ready to read data.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET# parame-
ters and to Figure 15‚ on page 29 for the timing diagram.
The device also enters the standby mode when the RESET#
pin is driven low. Refer to the next section, RESET#: Hard-
ware Reset Pin.
Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is dis-
abled. The output pins are placed in the high impedance
state.

Sector Protection/Unprotection
The hardware sector protection feature disables both pro-
gram and erase operations in any sector. The hardware sec-
tor unprotection feature re-enables both program and erase
operations in previously protected sectors. Sector protec-
tion/unprotection can be implemented via two methods.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or
unprotected. See Autoselect Mode‚ on page 11 for details.
Temporary Sector Unprotect
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previously pro-
tected sectors to change data in-system. The Sector Unpro-
tect mode is activated by setting the RESET# pin to VID.
During this mode, formerly protected sectors can be pro-
grammed 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 3‚ on page 16
shows the algorithm, and Figure 22 shows the timing dia-
grams, for this feature.
Sector protection/unprotection requires VID on the RESET#
pin only, and can be implemented either in-system or via
programming equipment. Figure 2‚ on page 14 shows the al-
gorithms and Figure 24‚ on page 37 shows the timing dia-
gram. This method uses standard microprocessor bus cycle
timing. For sector unprotect, all unprotected sectors must
first be protected prior to the first sector unprotect write cy-
cle.

programming or erasing provides data protection against in-
advertent writes (refer to Table 5 on page 18 for command

COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific address and data commands or sequences
into the command register initiates device operations.
Table 5 on page 18 defines the valid register command se-
quences. Writing incorrect address and data values or
writing them in the improper sequence resets the device to
reading array data.
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation, writ-
ing the reset command returns the device to reading array
data (also applies during Erase Suspend).
Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host system
to access the manufacturer and devices codes, and deter-
mine whether or not a sector is protected. Table 5 on
page 18 shows the address and data requirements. This
method is an alternative to that shown in Table 4 on page 12,
which is intended for PROM programmers and requires VID
on address bit A9.
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
appropriate timing diagrams in the AC Characteristics sec-
tion.
Reading Array Data
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by writing two
unlock cycles, followed by the autoselect command. The de-
vice then enters the autoselect mode, and the system may
read at any address any number of times, without initiating
another command sequence. A read cycle at address
XX00h retrieves the manufacturer code. A read cycle at ad-
dress 01h in word mode (or 02h in byte mode) returns the
device code. A read cycle containing a sector address (SA)
and the address 02h in word mode (or 04h in byte mode) re-
turns 01h if that sector is protected, or 00h if it is unpro-
tected. Refer to Table 2 on page 11 and Table 3 on page 11
for valid sector addresses.
The device is automatically set to reading array data after
device power-up. No commands are required to retrieve
data. The device is also ready to read array data after com-
pleting an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase algo-
rithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command, the
device enters the Erase Suspend mode. The system can
read array data using the standard read timings, except that
if it reads at an address within erase-suspended sectors, the
device outputs status data. After completing a programming
operation in the Erase Suspend mode, the system may once
again read array data with the same exception. See “Erase
Suspend/Erase Resume Commands” for more information
on this mode.
The system must write the reset command to exit the au-
toselect mode and return to reading array data.
Word/Byte Program Command Sequence
The system must issue the reset command to re-enable the
device for reading array data if DQ5 goes high, or while in
the autoselect mode. See the Reset Command‚ on page 15
section, next.
The system may program the device by word or byte, de-
pending on the state of the BYTE# pin. Programming is a
four-bus-cycle operation. The program command sequence
is initiated by writing two unlock write cycles, followed by the
program set-up command. The program address and data
are written next, which in turn initiate the Embedded Pro-
gram algorithm. The system is not required to provide further
controls or timings. The device automatically generates the
program pulses and verifies the programmed cell margin.
Table 5 on page 18 shows the address and data require-
ments for the byte program command sequence.
See also Requirements for Reading Array Data‚ on page 9
for more information. The Read Operations table provides
the read parameters, and Figure 14‚ on page 28 shows the
timing diagram.
Reset Command
Writing the reset command to the device resets the device to
reading array data. Address bits are don’t care for this com-
mand.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the de-
vice then returns to reading array data and addresses are no
longer latched. The system can determine the status of the
program operation by using DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#. See
Write Operation Status‚ on page 19 for information on these
status bits.
The reset command may be written between the sequence
cycles in an erase command sequence before erasing be-
gins. This resets the device to reading array data. Once era-
sure begins, however, the device ignores reset commands
until the operation is complete.
Any commands written to the device during the Embedded
Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a hardware reset
immediately terminates the programming operation. The
Byte Program command sequence should be reinitiated
once the device has reset to reading array data, to ensure
data integrity.
The reset command may be written between the sequence
cycles in a program command sequence before program-
ming begins. This resets the device to reading array data
(also applies to programming in Erase Suspend mode).
Once programming begins, however, the device ignores
reset commands until the operation is complete.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across sector
boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed from a 0 back
to a 1. Attempting to do so may halt the operation and set
DQ5 to 1, or cause the Data# Polling algorithm to indicate
the operation was successful. However, a succeeding read
will show that the data is still 0. Only erase operations can
convert a 0 to a 1.
The reset command may be written between the sequence
cycles in an autoselect command sequence. Once in the au-
toselect mode, the reset command must be written to return
to reading array data (also applies to autoselect during
Erase Suspend).

Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
Chip Erase Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program
bytes or words to the device 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 se-
quence 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 pro-
gram address and data. Additional data is programmed in
the same manner. This mode dispenses with the initial two
unlock cycles required in the standard program command
sequence, resulting in faster total programming time. Table 5
on page 18 shows the requirements for the command se-
quence.
Chip erase is a six bus cycle operation. The chip erase com-
mand sequence is initiated by writing two unlock cycles, fol-
lowed 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 algorithm automatically preprograms
and verifies the entire memory for an all zero data pattern
prior to electrical erase. The system is not required to pro-
vide any controls or timings during these operations. Table 5
on page 18 shows the address and data requirements for
the chip erase command sequence.
Any commands written to the chip during the Embedded
Erase algorithm are ignored. Note that a hardware reset
during the chip erase operation immediately terminates the
operation. The Chip Erase command sequence should be
reinitiated once the device has returned to reading array
data, to ensure data integrity The system can determine the
status of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or
RY/BY#. See Write Operation Status‚ on page 19 for infor-
mation on these status bits. When the Embedded Erase al-
gorithm is complete, the device returns to reading array data
and addresses are no longer latched.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock Bypass
Program and Unlock Bypass Reset commands are valid. To
exit the unlock bypass mode, the system must issue the
two-cycle unlock bypass reset command sequence. The first
cycle must contain the data 90h; the second cycle the data
00h. Addresses are don’t cares. The device then returns to
reading array data.
Figure 3‚ on page 16 illustrates the algorithm for the program
operation. See Erase/Program Operations‚ on page 30 for
parameters, and Figure 17‚ on page 31 for timing diagrams.
Figure 4‚ on page 17 illustrates the algorithm for the erase
operation. See Erase/Program Operations‚ on page 30 for
parameters, and to Figure 18 for timing diagrams.
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 additional unlock write
cycles are then followed by the address of the sector to be
erased, and the sector erase command. Table 5 on page 18
shows the address and data requirements for the sector
erase command sequence.

Command Sequence
The device does not require the system to preprogram the
memory prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm au-

quired to provide any controls or timings during these opera-
tions.

After the command sequence is written, a sector erase
time-out of 50 µs begins. During the time-out period, addi-
tional sector addresses and sector erase commands may be
written. Loading the sector erase buffer may be done in any
sequence, and the number of sectors may be from one sec-
tor to all sectors. The time between these additional cycles
must be less than 50 µs, otherwise the last address and
command might not be accepted, and erasure may begin. It
is recommended that processor interrupts be disabled dur-
ing this time to ensure all commands are accepted. The in-
terrupts can be re-enabled after the last Sector Erase
command is written. If the time between additional sector
erase commands can be assumed to be less than 50 µs, the
system need not monitor DQ3. Any command other than
Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the time-out pe-
riod resets the device to reading array data. The system
must rewrite the command sequence and any additional
sector addresses and commands.

After an erase-suspended program operation is complete,
the system can once again read array data within non-sus-

Status‚ on page 19 for more information.

Timer” section.) The time-out begins from the rising edge of
the final WE# pulse in the command sequence.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the Erase
Suspend command is valid. All other commands are ig-
nored. Note that a hardware reset during the sector erase
operation immediately terminates the operation. The Sector
Erase command sequence should be reinitiated once the
device has returned to reading array data, to ensure data in-
tegrity.
The system may also write the autoselect command se-
quence when the device is in the Erase Suspend mode. The
device allows reading autoselect codes even at addresses
within erasing sectors, since the codes are not stored in the
memory array. When the device exits the autoselect mode,
the device reverts to the Erase Suspend mode, and is ready
for another valid operation. See Autoselect Command Se-
quence‚ on page 15 for more information.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the de-
vice 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#. (Re-
fer to Write Operation Status‚ on page 19 for information on
these status bits.)
The system must write the Erase Resume command (ad-
dress bits are “don’t care”) to exit the erase suspend mode
and continue the sector erase operation. Further writes of
the Resume command are ignored. Another Erase Suspend
command can be written after the device has resumed eras-
ing.
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation.
Refer to the Erase/Program Operations‚ on page 30 for pa-
rameters, and to Figure 18‚ on page 32 for timing diagrams.
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands
The Erase Suspend command allows the system to interrupt
a sector erase operation and then read data from, or pro-
gram data to, any sector not selected for erasure. This com-
mand 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 ig-
nored if written during the chip erase operation or Embedded
Program algorithm. Writing the Erase Suspend command
during the Sector Erase time-out immediately terminates the

When the Erase Suspend command is written during a sec-
tor erase operation, the device requires a maximum of 20 µs
to suspend the erase operation. However, when the Erase
Suspend command is written during the sector erase
time-out, the device immediately terminates the time-out pe-
riod and suspends the erase operation.

After the erase operation has been suspended, the system
can read array data from or program data to any sector not
selected for erasure. (The device erase suspends all sectors
selected for erasure.) Normal read and write timings and
command definitions apply. Reading at any address within
erase-suspended sectors produces status data on
DQ7–DQ0. The system can use DQ7, or DQ6 and DQ2 to-
gether, to determine if a sector is actively erasing or is
erase-suspended. See Write Operation Status‚ on page 19
for information on these status bits.

WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The device provides several bits to determine the status of a
write operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, DQ7, and RY/BY#.
Table 6 on page 22 and the following subsections describe
the functions of these bits. DQ7, RY/BY#, and DQ6 each
offer a method for determining whether a program or erase
operation is complete or in progress. These three bits are
discussed first.
START
Read DQ7–DQ0
Addr = VA
DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system
whether an Embedded Algorithm is in progress or com-
pleted, or whether the device is in Erase Suspend. Data#
Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in
the program or erase command sequence.
Yes
DQ7 = Data?
During the Embedded Program algorithm, the device out-
puts on DQ7 the complement of the datum programmed to
DQ7. This DQ7 status also applies to programming during
Erase Suspend. When the Embedded 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 the device returns to reading array
data.
No
No
DQ5 = 1?
Yes
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling pro-
duces a 0 on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is
complete, or if the device enters the Erase Suspend mode,
Data# Polling produces a 1 on DQ7. This is analogous to the
complement/true datum output described for the Embedded
Program algorithm: the erase function changes all the bits in
a sector to 1; prior to this, the device outputs the comple-
ment, or 0. 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?
No
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors
selected for erasing are protected, Data# Polling on DQ7 is
active for approximately 100 µs, then the device returns to
reading array data. If not all selected sectors are protected,
the Embedded Erase algorithm erases the unprotected sec-
tors, and ignores the selected sectors that are protected.
PASS
FAIL
Notes:
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector erase
operation, a valid address is an address within any sector
selected for erasure. During chip erase, a valid address is any
non-protected sector address.
When the system detects DQ7 has changed from the com-
plement to true data, it can read valid data at DQ7–DQ0 on
the following read cycles. This is because DQ7 may change
asynchronously with DQ0–DQ6 while Output Enable (OE#)
is asserted low. Figure 19‚ on page 33 Data# Polling Timings
(During Embedded Algorithms), illustrates this.
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = 1 because DQ7 may
change simultaneously with DQ5.
Figure 5. Data# Polling Algorithm
Table 6 on page 22 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on
DQ7. Figure 5 shows the Data# Polling algorithm.
RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin that indi-
cates 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, several RY/BY# pins can be
tied together in parallel with a pull-up resistor to VCC
.

D A T A S H E E T
If the output is low (Busy), the device is actively erasing or
DQ2: Toggle Bit II
programming. (This includes programming in the Erase Sus-
pend mode.) If the output is high (Ready), the device is
ready to read array data (including during the Erase Sus-
pend mode), or is in the standby mode.
The “Toggle Bit II” on DQ2, when used with DQ6, indicates
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 ris-
ing edge of the final WE# pulse in the command sequence.
The device toggles DQ2 with each OE# or CE# read cycle.
Table 6 on page 22 shows the outputs for RY/BY#.
Figure 14‚ on page 28, Figure 17‚ on page 31, and
Figure 18‚ on page 32 shows RY/BY# for reset, program,
and erase operations, respectively.
DQ2 toggles when the system reads at addresses within
those sectors that have been selected for erasure. But DQ2
cannot distinguish whether the sector is actively erasing or is
erase-suspended. DQ6, by comparison, indicates whether
the device is actively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but
cannot distinguish which sectors are selected for erasure.
Thus, both status bits are required for sector and mode infor-
mation. Refer to Table 6 on page 22 to compare outputs for
DQ2 and DQ6.
DQ6: Toggle Bit I
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Embedded Pro-
gram or Erase algorithm is in progress or complete, or
whether the device has entered the Erase Suspend mode.
Toggle Bit I may be read at any address, 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 sec-
tor erase time-out.
Figure 6‚ on page 21 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flow-
chart form, and the section DQ2: Toggle Bit II‚ on page 20
explains the algorithm. See also the DQ6: Toggle Bit I sub-
section. Figure 20‚ on page 33 shows the toggle bit timing di-
agram. Figure 21‚ on page 34 shows the differences
between DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form.
During an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm operation,
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 tog-
gling.
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors
selected for erasing are protected, DQ6 toggles for approxi-
mately 100 µs, then returns to reading array data. If not all
selected sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algo-
rithm erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the se-
lected sectors that are protected.
Refer to Figure 6‚ on page 21 for the following discussion.
Whenever the system initially begins reading toggle bit sta-
tus, it must read DQ7–DQ0 at least twice in a row to deter-
mine whether a toggle bit is toggling. Typically, the system
would note and store the value of the toggle 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 op-
eration. The system can read array data on DQ7–DQ0 on
the following read cycle.
The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to determine
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 de-
vice enters the Erase Suspend 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‚ on page 19).
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system deter-
mines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the system also
should note whether the value of DQ5 is high (see the sec-
tion on DQ5). If it is, the system should then determine again
whether the toggle bit is toggling, 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.
If a program address falls within a protected sector, DQ6 tog-
gles for approximately 1 µs after the program command se-
quence is written, then returns to reading array data.
DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program mode,
and stops toggling once the Embedded Program algorithm is
complete.
Table 6 on page 22 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on
DQ6. Figure 6‚ on page 21 shows the toggle bit algorithm.
Figure 20‚ on page 33 shows the toggle bit timing diagrams.
Figure 21 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in
graphical form. See also the subsection on DQ2: Toggle Bit
II‚ on page 20.
The remaining scenario is that the system initially deter-
mines 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 cycles, determining the status
as described in the previous paragraph. Alternatively, it may
choose to perform other system tasks. In this case, the sys-
tem must start at the beginning of the algorithm when it re-
turns to determine the status of the operation (top of
Figure 6‚ on page 21).

DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
START
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has ex-
ceeded a specified internal pulse count limit. Under these
conditions DQ5 produces a 1. This is a failure condition that
indicates the program or erase cycle was not successfully
completed.
Read DQ7–DQ0
The DQ5 failure condition may appear if the system tries to
program a 1 to a location that is previously programmed 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 operation has exceeded the timing limits, DQ5 pro-
duces a 1.
(Note 1)
Read DQ7–DQ0
Under both these conditions, the system must issue the
reset command to return the device to reading array data.
No
Toggle Bit
= Toggle?
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
Yes
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the system
may read DQ3 to determine whether or not an erase opera-
tion 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 addi-
tional sector erase command. When the time-out is com-
plete, DQ3 switches from 0 to 1. If the time between
additional sector erase commands from the system can be
assumed to be less than 50 µs, the system need not monitor
DQ3. See also Sector Erase Command Sequence‚ on
page 16.
No
DQ5 = 1?
Yes
(Notes
1, 2)
Read DQ7–DQ0
Twice
After the sector erase command sequence is written, the
system should read the status on DQ7 (Data# Polling) or
DQ6 (Toggle Bit I) to ensure the device has accepted the
command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is 1, the in-
ternally controlled erase cycle has begun; all further com-
mands (other than Erase Suspend) are ignored until the
erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is 1, the device will ac-
cept additional sector erase commands. To ensure the com-
mand has been accepted, the system software should check
the status of DQ3 prior to and following each subsequent
sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on the second status
check, the last command might not have been accepted.
Table 6 on page 22 shows the outputs for DQ3.

Notes:
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 2.0 V V , 1,000,000 cycles. Additionally, programming typicals assume
CC
checkerboard pattern.
2. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 1.8 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 5 on page 18
for further information on command definitions.
6. The device has a minimum guaranteed erase and program cycle endurance of 1,000,000 cycles.
