GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29LV400B is a 4 Mbit, 3.0 volt-only Flash
memory organized as 524,288 bytes or 262,144
words. The device is offered in 48-ball FBGA, 44-pin
SO, and 48-pin TSOP 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 in-system using only a single 3.0 volt VCC
supply. No VPP is required for write or erase opera-
tions. The device can also be programmed in standard
EPROM programmers.
pre-programs 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.
The host system can detect whether a program or
erase operation is complete by observing the RY/BY#
pin, or by reading the DQ7 (Data# Polling) and DQ6
(toggle) status bits. After a program or erase cycle
has been completed, the device is ready to read array
data or accept another command.
This device is manufactured using AMD’s 0.32 µm pro-
cess technology, and offers all the features and bene-
fits of the Am29LV400, which was manufactured using
0.5 µm process technology. In addition, the
Am29LV400B features unlock bypass programming
and in-system sector protection/unprotection.
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.
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 program-
ming equipment.
The standard device offers access times of 55, 70, 90
and 120 ns, allowing high speed microprocessors to
operate without wait states. To eliminate bus conten-
tion the device has separate chip enable (CE#), write
enable (WE#) and output enable (OE#) controls.
The device requires only a single 3.0 volt power sup-
ply for both read and write functions. Internally gener-
ated and regulated voltages are provided for the
program and erase operations.
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 microprocessor write timings. Register con-
tents serve as input to an internal state-machine that
controls the erase and programming circuitry. Write
cycles also internally latch addresses and data
needed for the programming and erase operations.
Reading data out of the device is similar to reading
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 micropro-
cessor to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash
memory.
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 these modes.
Device programming occurs by executing the program
command sequence. This initiates the Embedded
Program algorithm—an internal algorithm that auto-
matically times the program pulse widths and verifies
proper cell margin. The Unlock Bypass mode facili-
tates 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 electrically erases all bits within a sector si-
multaneously via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is
programmed using hot electron injection.
Device erasure occurs by executing the erase com-
mand sequence. This initiates the Embedded Erase
algorithm—an internal algorithm that automatically

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 composed of latches that 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.

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.
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.
For program operations, the BYTE# pin determines
whether the device accepts program data in bytes or
words. Refer to “Word/Byte Configuration” for more in-
formation.
If the device is deselected during erasure or program-
ming, the device draws active current until the
operation is completed.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facili-
tate faster programming. Once the device enters the
Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are re-
quired to program a word or byte, instead of four. The
“Word/Byte Program Command Sequence” section
has details on programming data to the device using
both standard and Unlock Bypass command se-
quences.
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 + 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 ad-
dresses are changed. While in sleep mode, output
data is latched and always available to the system.
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sec-
tors, or the entire device. Tables 2 and 3 indicate the
address space that each sector occupies. A “sector
address” consists of the address bits required to
uniquely select a sector. The “Command Definitions”
section has details on erasing a sector or the entire
chip, or suspending/resuming the erase operation.
ICC4 in the DC Characteristics table represents the au-
tomatic sleep mode current specification.
After 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 informa-
tion.
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of re-
setting the device to reading array data. When the RE-
SET# 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 in-
terrupted should be reinitiated once the device is
ready to accept another command sequence, to en-
sure data integrity.
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.
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.
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 Op-
eration Status” for more information, and to “AC Char-
acteristics” for timing diagrams.
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-
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,

rithms). The system can read data tRH after the RE-
SET# pin returns to VIH.
Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is
disabled. The output pins are placed in the high im-
pedance state.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET# pa-
rameters and to Figure 14 for the timing diagram.

the sector address must appear on the appropriate
highest order address bits (see Tables 2 and 3). Table
4 shows the remaining address bits that are don’t
care. When all necessary bits have been set as re-
quired, the programming equipment may then read the
corresponding identifier code on DQ7–DQ0.
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 pro-
grammed with its corresponding programming
algorithm. 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 5. This method
does not require VID. See “Command Definitions” for
details on using the autoselect mode.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect
mode requires VID (11.5 V to 12.5 V) on address pin
A9. Address pins A6, A1, and A0 must be as shown in

Sector Protection/Unprotection
The hardware sector protection feature disables both
program and erase operations in any sector. The hard-
ware sector unprotection feature re-enables both pro-
gram and erase operations in previously protected
sectors. Sector protection/unprotection can be imple-
mented via two methods.
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.
The primary method requires VID on the RESET# pin
only, and can be implemented either in-system or via
programming equipment. Figure 1 shows the algo-
rithms and Figure 23 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.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is pro-
tected or unprotected. See “Autoselect Mode” for de-
tails.

Temporary Sector Unprotect
Hardware Data Protection
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. During this mode, formerly protected
sectors can be programmed or erased by selecting the
sector addresses. Once VID is removed from the RE-
SET# pin, all the previously protected sectors are
protected again. Figure 2 shows the algorithm, and
Figure 22 shows the timing diagrams, for this feature.
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles
for programming or erasing provides data protection
against inadvertent writes (refer to Table 5 for com-
mand definitions). In addition, the following hardware
data protection measures prevent accidental erasure
or programming, which might otherwise be caused by
spurious system level signals during VCC power-up
and power-down transitions, or from system noise.
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. Subsequent writes are ignored
until VCC is greater than VLKO. The system must pro-
vide the proper signals to the control pins to prevent

CE# and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a

COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific address and data commands or se-
quences into the command register initiates device op-
erations. Table 5 defines the valid register command
sequences. Writing incorrect address and data val-
ues or writing them in the improper sequence may
place the device in an unknown state. A reset com-
mand is then required to return the device to reading
array data.
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 (also
applies to autoselect during Erase Suspend).
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command returns the device to read-
ing array data (also applies during Erase Suspend).
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” section.
Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host
system to access the manufacturer and devices
codes, and determine whether or not a sector is pro-
tected. Table 5 shows the address and data require-
ments. This method is an alternative to that shown in
Table 4, which is intended for PROM programmers
and requires VID on address bit A9.
Reading Array Data
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 completing an Embedded Program or Em-
bedded Erase algorithm.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by writ-
ing two unlock cycles, followed by the autoselect com-
mand. The device then enters the autoselect mode,
and the system may read at any address any number
of times, without initiating another command se-
quence. A read cycle at address XX00h retrieves the
manufacturer code. A read cycle at address XX01h 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) returns 01h if that sector is protected, or 00h if
it is unprotected. Refer to Tables 2 and 3 for valid sec-
tor addresses.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,
the device enters the Erase Suspend mode. The sys-
tem can read array data using the standard read tim-
ings, 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 infor-
mation on this mode.
The system must issue the reset command to re-en-
able the device for reading array data if DQ5 goes
high, or while in the autoselect mode. See the “Reset
Command” section, next.
The system must write the reset command to exit the
autoselect mode and return to reading array data.
See also “Requirements for Reading Array Data” in
the “Device Bus Operations” section for more informa-
tion. The Read Operations table provides the read pa-
rameters, and Figure 13 shows the timing diagram.
Word/Byte 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 com-
mand 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 Program algorithm. The
system is not required to provide further controls or
timings. The device automatically generates the pro-
gram pulses and verifies the programmed cell margin.
Table 5 shows the address and data requirements for
the byte program command sequence.
Reset Command
Writing the reset command to the device resets the
device to reading array data. Address bits are don’t
care for this command.
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the device to reading array
data. Once erasure begins, however, the device ig-
nores reset commands until the operation is complete.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete,
the device then returns to reading array data and ad-
dresses are no longer latched. The system can deter-
mine the status of the program operation by using
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in a program command sequence be-
fore programming begins. This resets the device to
reading array data (also applies to programming in
Erase Suspend mode). Once programming begins,

DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#. See “Write Operation Status”
for information on these status bits.
Any commands written to the device during the Em-
bedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a
hardware reset immediately terminates the program-
ming operation. The Byte Program command se-
quence should be reinitiated once the device has reset
to reading array data, to ensure data integrity.

Command Sequence
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”.

Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to pro-
gram 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 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 5 shows the require-
ments for the command sequence.

Note: See Table 5 for program command sequence.
Figure 3. Program Operation
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 first cycle must contain the pro-
gram address and the data 90h. The second cycle
need only contain the data 00h. The device then re-
turns to reading array data.
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 5 shows
the address and data requirements for the chip erase
command sequence.
Figure 3 illustrates the algorithm for the program oper-
ation. See the Erase/Program Operations table in “AC
Characteristics” for parameters, and to Figure 17 for
timing diagrams.
Any commands written to the chip during the Embed-
ded Erase algorithm are ignored. Note that a hard-
ware reset during the chip erase operation
immediately terminates the operation. The Chip Erase
command sequence should be reinitiated once the de-

Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the
Erase Suspend command is valid. All other com-
mands are ignored. Note that a hardware reset dur-
ing the sector erase operation immediately terminates
the operation. The Sector Erase command sequence

reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
integrity.
The system can determine the status of the erase op-
eration by using DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY#. See
“Write Operation Status” for information on these sta-
tus bits. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is com-
plete, the device returns to reading array data and
addresses are no longer latched.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the
device 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 “Write Operation Status” for
information on these status bits.)
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-
tion. See the Erase/Program Operations tables in “AC
Characteristics” for parameters, and to Figure 18 for
timing diagrams.
Sector Erase Command Sequence
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-
tion. Refer to the Erase/Program Operations tables in
the “AC Characteristics” section for parameters, and to
Figure 18 for timing diagrams.
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 write cycles are then followed by the
address of the sector to be erased, and the sector
erase command. Table 5 shows the address and data
requirements for the sector erase command se-
quence.
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
Commands
The Erase Suspend command allows the system to in-
terrupt a sector erase operation and then read data
from, or program data to, any sector not selected for
erasure. 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 during
the chip erase operation or Embedded Program algo-
rithm. Writing the Erase Suspend command during the
Sector Erase time-out immediately terminates the
time-out period and suspends the erase operation. Ad-
dresses are “don’t-cares” when writing the Erase Sus-
pend command.
The device does not require the system to preprogram
the memory prior to erase. The Embedded Erase al-
gorithm automatically programs and verifies the sector
for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase.
The system is not required to provide any controls or
timings during these operations.
After the command sequence is written, a sector erase
time-out of 50 µs begins. During the time-out period,
additional sector addresses and sector erase com-
mands may be written. Loading the sector erase buffer
may be done in any sequence, and the number of sec-
tors may be from one sector 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 recom-
mended 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. If the time between addi-
tional 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 period resets the de-
vice to reading array data. The system must rewrite
the command sequence and any additional sector ad-
dresses and commands.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during a
sector erase operation, the device requires a maxi-
mum of 20 μs to suspend the erase operation. How-
ever, when the Erase Suspend command is written
during the sector erase time-out, the device immedi-
ately terminates the time-out period 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 sec-
tors produces status data on DQ7–DQ0. The system
can use DQ7, or DQ6 and DQ2 together, to determine
if a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended.
See “Write Operation Status” for information on these
status bits.
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sec-
tor erase timer has timed out. (See the “DQ3: Sector
Erase Timer” section.) The time-out begins from the
rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command se-
quence.
After an erase-suspended program operation is com-
plete, the system can once again read array data
within non-suspended sectors. The system can deter-
mine the status of the program operation using the

gram operation. See “Write Operation Status” for more
information.

The system may also write the autoselect command
sequence 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 Sequence”

WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The device provides several bits to determine the sta-
tus of a write operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, DQ7,
and RY/BY#. Table 6 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.
Table 6 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7.
Figure 5 shows the Data# Polling algorithm.
START
DQ7: Data# Polling
Read DQ7–DQ0
Addr = VA
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host sys-
tem whether an Embedded Algorithm is in progress or
completed, 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 se-
quence.
Yes
DQ7 = Data?
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 pro-
gramming 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
Read DQ7–DQ0
Addr = VA
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling
produces 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 out-
put 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 “complement,”
or “0.” The system must provide an address within any
of the sectors selected for erasure to read valid status
information on DQ7.
Yes
DQ7 = Data?
No
PASS
FAIL
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
device 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.
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.
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = “1” because
DQ7 may change simultaneously with DQ5.
When the system detects DQ7 has changed from the
complement to true data, it can read valid data at
DQ7–DQ0 on the following read cycles. This is be-
cause DQ7 may change asynchronously with
DQ0–DQ6 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted low.
Figure 19, Data# Polling Timings (During Embedded
Algorithms), in the “AC Characteristics” section illus-
trates this.

DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program
RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Pro-
gram algorithm is complete.
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin that
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

ure 6 shows the toggle bit algorithm. Figure 20 in the
“AC Characteristics” section shows the toggle bit tim-
ing diagrams. Figure 21 shows the differences be-
tween DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the
subsection on DQ2: Toggle Bit II.
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 ready to read array data (includ-
ing during the Erase Suspend mode), or is in the
standby mode.
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.
Table 6 shows the outputs for RY/BY#. Figures 14, 17
and 18 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 era-
sure. (The system may use either OE# or CE# to con-
trol 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 6 to compare outputs
for DQ2 and DQ6.
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.
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.
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 20 shows the toggle bit timing diagram. Figure
21 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in
graphical form.
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 pro-
tected.
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 6 for the following discussion. When-
ever the system initially begins reading toggle bit sta-
tus, 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.
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# Poll-
ing).
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
If a program address falls within a protected sector,
DQ6 toggles for approximately 2 µs after the program
command sequence is written, then returns to reading
array data.

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-
cles, determining the status as described in the previ-
ous 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 returns to de-
termine the status of the operation (top of Figure 6).

DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has
exceeded 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.
No
Toggle Bit

Yes
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 produces a “1.”
No
DQ5 = 1?
Yes
Under both these conditions, the system must issue
the reset command to return the device to reading
array data.

DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the
system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not an
erase operation has begun. (The sector erase timer
does not apply to the chip erase command.) If addi-
tional sectors are selected for erasure, the entire
time-out also applies after each additional sector
erase command. When the time-out is complete, DQ3
switches from “0” to “1.” If the time between additional
sector erase commands from the system can be as-
sumed to be less than 50 µs, the system need not
monitor DQ3. See also the “Sector Erase Command
Sequence” section.

Notes:
1. Read toggle bit twice to determine whether or not it is

After the sector erase command sequence is written,
the system should read the status on DQ7 (Data# Poll-
ing) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit I) to ensure the device has ac-
cepted the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If
DQ3 is “1”, the internally controlled erase cycle has
begun; all further commands (other than Erase Sus-
pend) are ignored until the erase operation is com-
plete. If DQ3 is “0”, the device will accept additional
sector erase commands. To ensure the command 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

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 (3.0 V for regulated speed options), 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
for further information on command definitions.
6. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 1,000,000 cycles.
