GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The Am29LV320D is a 32 megabit, 3.0  
volt-only flash memory device, organized as  
2,097,152 words of 16 bits each or 4,194,304  
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 pro-  
grammed in-system with the standard 3.0 volt  
VCC supply, and can also be programmed in  
standard EPROM programmers.  
tomer code (programmed through AMD’s Ex-  
pressFlash service), or 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.  
The device offers complete compatibility with  
the JEDEC single-power-supply Flash com-  
mand set standard. Commands are written to  
the command register using standard micro-  
processor write timings. Reading data out of  
the device is similar to reading from other Flash  
or EPROM devices.  
The device is available with an access time of  
90 or 120 ns. The devices are offered in 48-pin  
TSOP and 48-ball FBGA packages. Standard  
control pins—chip enable (CE#), write enable  
(WE#), and output enable (OE#)—control nor-  
mal read and write operations, and avoid bus  
contention issues.  
The host system can detect whether a program  
or erase operation is complete by using the de-  
vice status bits: RY/BY# pin, DQ7 (Data# Poll-  
ing) and DQ6/DQ2 (toggle bits). After a  
program or erase cycle is completed, the device  
automatically returns to the read mode.  
The device requires only a single 3.0 volt  
power supply for both read and write func-  
tions. Internally generated and regulated volt-  
ages are provided for the program and erase  
operations.  
The sector erase architecture allows mem-  
ory sectors to be erased and reprogrammed  
without affecting the data contents of other  
sectors. The device is fully erased when  
shipped from the factory.  
Am29LV320D Features  
The SecSiTM Sector (Secured Silicon) is an  
extra sector capable of being permanently  
locked by AMD or customers. The SecSi Indi-  
cator Bit (DQ7) is permanently set to a 1 if the  
part is factory locked, and set to a 0 if cus-  
tomer lockable. This way, customer lockable  
parts can never be used to replace a factory  
locked part. Note that the Am29LV320D has  
a SecSi Sector size of 64 Kbytes. AMD de-  
vices designated as replacements or sub-  
stitutes, such as the Am29LV320M, have  
256 bytes. This should be considered dur-  
ing system design.  
Hardware data protection measures include  
a low VCC detector that automatically inhibits  
write operations during power transitions. The  
hardware sector protection feature disables  
both program and erase operations in any com-  
bination of the sectors of memory. This can be  
achieved in-system or via programming equip-  
ment.  
The device offers two power-saving features.  
When addresses are stable for a specified  
amount of time, the device enters the auto-  
matic sleep mode. The system can also place  
the device into the standby mode. Power con-  
sumption is greatly reduced in both modes.  
Factory locked parts provide several options.  
The SecSi Sector may store a secure, random  
16 byte ESN (Electronic Serial Number), cus-

DEVICE BUS OPERATIONS  
This section describes the requirements and  
use of the device bus operations, which are ini-  
tiated through the internal command register.  
The command register itself does not occupy  
any addressable memory location. The register  
is a latch used to store the commands, along  
with the address and data information needed  
to execute the command. The contents of the  
register serve as inputs to the internal state  
machine. 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 resulting output. The fol-  
lowing subsections describe each of these oper-  
ations in further detail.

Notes:  
1. Addresses are A20:A0 in word mode (BYTE# = VIH), A20:A-1 in byte mode (BYTE# = VIL).  
2. The sector protect and sector unprotect functions may also be implemented via programming equipment. See  
“Sector/Sector Block Protection and Unprotection” on page 17.  
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” on page 17. If WP#/ACC = VHH, all sectors are unprotected.

tri-stated, and the DQ15 pin is used as an input  
for the LSB (A-1) address function.  
Word/Byte Configuration  
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device  
data I/O pins operate in the byte or word con-  
figuration. If the BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘1,  
the device is in word configuration, DQ0–DQ15  
are active and controlled by CE# and OE#.  
Requirements for Reading Array Data  
To read array data from the outputs, the sys-  
tem must drive the CE# and OE# pins to VIL.  
CE# is the power control and selects the de-  
vice. OE# is the output control and gates array  
data to the output pins. WE# should remain at  
VIH. The BYTE# pin determines whether the de-  
vice 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

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 command is necessary  
in this mode to obtain array data. Standard mi-  
croprocessor read cycles that assert valid ad-  
dresses on the device address inputs produce  
valid data on the device data outputs. The de-  
vice remains enabled for read access until the  
command register contents are altered.  
This function is primarily intended to allow  
faster manufacturing throughput at the factory.  
If the system asserts VHH on this pin, the device  
automatically enters the aforementioned Un-  
lock Bypass mode, temporarily unprotects any  
protected sectors, and uses the higher voltage  
on the pin to reduce the time required for pro-  
gram operations. The system would use a  
two-cycle program command sequence as re-  
quired by the Unlock Bypass mode. Removing  
VHH from the WP#/ACC pin returns the device  
to normal operation. Note that the WP#/ACC  
pin must not be at VHH for operations other  
than accelerated programming, or device dam-  
age may result. In addition, the WP#/ACC pin  
must not be left floating or unconnected; incon-  
sistent behavior of the device may result.  
See “Requirements for Reading Array Data” on  
page 11 for more information. Refer to the AC  
Read-Only Operations table for timing specifi-  
cations and to Figure 14, on page 38 for the  
timing diagram. ICC1 in the DC Characteristics  
table represents the active current specification  
for reading array data.  
Autoselect Functions  
Writing Commands/Command Sequences  
If 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 sepa-  
rate from the memory array) on DQ7–DQ0.  
Standard read cycle timings apply in this mode.  
Refer to the “Autoselect Mode” on page 16 and  
“Autoselect Command Sequence” on page 25  
sections for more information.  
To write a command or command sequence  
(which includes programming data to the de-  
vice and erasing sectors of memory), the sys-  
tem must drive WE# and CE# to VIL, and OE#  
to VIH.  
For program operations, the BYTE# pin deter-  
mines whether the device accepts program  
data in bytes or words. Refer to “Word/Byte  
Configuration” on page 11 for more informa-  
tion.  
ICC6 and ICC7 in the DC Characteristics table  
represent the current specifications for  
read-while-program and read-while-erase, re-  
spectively.  
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode  
to facilitate faster programming. Once the de-  
vice enters the Unlock Bypass mode, only two  
write cycles are required to program a word or  
byte, instead of four. The “Word/Byte Configu-  
ration” on page 11 section contains details on  
programming data to the device using both  
standard and Unlock Bypass command se-  
quences.  
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, current consump-  
tion is greatly reduced, and the outputs are  
placed in the high impedance state, indepen-  
dent of the OE# input.  
An erase operation can erase one sector, multi-  
ple sectors, or the entire device. Table 2, on  
page 13 through Table 5, on page 16 indicate  
the address space that each sector occupies. A  
“sector address” is the address bits required to  
uniquely select a sector.  
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 re-  
stricted voltage range than VIH.) If CE# and RE-  
SET# are held at VIH, but not within VCC ± 0.3  
V, the device is in the standby mode, but the  
standby current is 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.  
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents  
the active current specification for the write  
mode. The “AC Characteristics” on page 38 sec-  
tion contains timing specification tables and  
timing diagrams for write operations.  
If the device is deselected during erasure or  
programming, the device draws active current  
until the operation is completed.  
Accelerated Program Operation  
The device offers accelerated program opera-  
tions through the ACC function. This is one of  
two functions provided by the WP#/ACC pin.  
ICC3 in the DC Characteristics table represents  
the standby current specification.  
12  
Am29LV320D  
November 15, 2004  
(ICC4). If RESET# is held at VIL but not within  
VSS±0.3 V, the standby current is greater.  
Automatic Sleep Mode  
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash de-  
vice energy consumption. The device automati-  
cally 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 address 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” on page 35 table  
represents the automatic sleep mode current  
specification.  
The RESET# pin may be tied to the system  
reset circuitry. A system reset would thus also  
reset the Flash memory, enabling the system to  
read the boot-up firmware from the Flash  
memory.  
If RESET# is asserted during a program or  
erase operation, the RY/BY# pin remains a “0”  
(busy) until the internal reset operation is com-  
plete, which requires a time of tREADY (during  
Embedded Algorithms). The system can thus  
monitor RY/BY# to determine whether the  
reset operation is complete. If RESET# is as-  
serted when a program or erase operation is  
not executing (RY/BY# pin is “1”), the reset op-  
eration is completed within a time of tREADY (not  
during Embedded Algorithms). 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 resetting the device to reading array data.  
When the RESET# pin is driven low for at least  
a period of tRP, the device immediately termi-  
nates any operation in progress, tristates all  
output pins, and ignores all read/write com-  
mands 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 se-  
quence, to ensure data integrity.  
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RE-  
SET# parameters and to Figure 15, on page 39  
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 RE-  
SET# pulse. When RESET# is held at VSS±0.3  
V, the device draws CMOS standby current

sector address must appear on the appropriate  
highest order address bits (see Table 2, on  
page 13 through Table 5, on page 16). Table 6,  
on page 16 shows the remaining address bits  
that are don’t care. When all necessary bits are  
set as required, the programming equipment  
may then read the corresponding identifier  
code on DQ7–DQ0.  
Autoselect Mode  
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer  
and device identification, and sector protection  
verification, through identifier codes output on  
DQ7–DQ0. This mode is primarily intended for  
programming equipment to automatically  
match a device to be programmed with its cor-  
responding 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 14, on page 29. This method does not re-  
quire VID. Refer to the “Autoselect Command  
Sequence” on page 25 section for more infor-  
mation.  
When using programming equipment, the au-  
toselect 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 Table 6, on page 16. In  
addition, when verifying sector protection, the

Sector Protection and unprotection requires VID  
on the RESET# pin only, and can be imple-  
mented either in-system or via programming  
equipment. Figure 2, on page 19 shows the al-  
gorithms and Figure 25, on page 47 shows the  
timing diagram. This method uses standard mi-  
croprocessor bus cycle timing. For sector un-  
protect, 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 sec-  
tors must be individually re-protected. To  
change data in protected sectors efficiently, the  
temporary sector unprotect function is avail-  
able. See Temporary Sector Unprotect” on  
page 18.  
The alternate method intended only for pro-  
gramming equipment, and requires VID on ad-  
dress pin A9 and OE#. This method is

compatible with programmer routines written  
for earlier 3.0 volt-only AMD flash devices. For  
detailed information, contact an AMD represen-  
tative.  
23, on page 46 shows the timing diagrams, for  
this feature.  
The device is shipped with all sectors unpro-  
tected. AMD offers the option of programming  
and protecting sectors at its factory prior to  
shipping the device through AMD’s Express-  
Flash™ Service. Contact an AMD representative  
for details.

Write Protect (WP#)  
RESET# = VIH  
The Write Protect function provides a hardware  
method of protecting certain boot sectors with-  
out using VID. This function is one of two pro-  
vided by the WP#/ACC pin.  
Temporary Sector  
Unprotect Completed  
(Note 2)  
If the system asserts VIL on the WP#/ACC pin,  
the device disables program and erase func-  
tions in the two “outermost” 8 Kbyte boot sec-  
tors independently of whether those sectors  
were protected or unprotected using the  
method described in “Sector/Sector Block Pro-  
tection and Unprotection” on page 17. The two  
outermost 8 Kbyte boot sectors are the two  
sectors containing the lowest addresses in a  
bottom-boot-configured device, or the two sec-  
tors containing the highest addresses in a  
top-boot-configured device.  
Notes:  
1. All protected sectors unprotected (If WP#/ACC =  
VIL, outermost boot sectors remain protected).  
2. All previously protected sectors are protected  
once again.  
Figure 1. Temporary Sector Unprotect  
Operation  
If the system asserts VIH on the WP#/ACC pin,  
the device reverts to whether the two outer-  
most 8K Byte boot sectors were last set to be  
protected or unprotected. That is, sector pro-  
tection or unprotection for these two sectors  
depends on whether they were last protected  
or unprotected using the method described in  
“Sector/Sector Block Protection and Unprotec-  
tion” on page 17.  
Note that the WP#/ACC pin must not be left  
floating or unconnected; inconsistent behavior  
of the device may result.  
Temporary Sector Unprotect  
This feature allows temporary unprotection of  
previously protected sectors to change data  
in-system. The Sector Unprotect mode is acti-  
vated by setting the RESET# pin to VID (11.5 V  
– 12.5 V). During this mode, formerly pro-  
tected sectors can be programmed or erased by  
selecting the sector addresses. Once VID is re-  
moved from the RESET# pin, all the previously  
protected sectors are protected again. Figure 1,  
on page 18 shows the algorithm, and Figure

SecSiTM Sector (Secured Silicon) Flash  
Memory Region  
Customer code through the ExpressFlash  
service  
Both a random, secure ESN and customer  
The Secured Silicon Sector (SecSi Sector) fea-  
ture provides a Flash memory region that en-  
ables permanent part identification through an  
Electronic Serial Number (ESN). The SecSi Sec-  
tor uses a SecSi Sector Indicator Bit (DQ7) to  
indicate whether or not the SecSi 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 security of the  
ESN once the product is shipped to the field.  
Note that the Am29LV320D has a SecSi  
Sector size of 64 Kbytes. AMD devices des-  
ignated as replacements or substitutes,  
such as the Am29LV320M, have 256 bytes.  
This should be considered during system  
design.  
code through the ExpressFlash service.  
In devices that have an ESN, a Bottom Boot de-  
vice has the 16-byte (8-word) ESN in sector 0  
at addresses 00000h–0000Fh in byte mode (or  
00000h–00007h in word mode). In the Top  
Boot device the ESN is in sector 63 at ad-  
dresses 3F0000h–3F000Fh in byte mode (or  
1F8000h–1F8007h in word mode). Note that in  
upcoming top boot versions of this device, the  
ESN is located in sector 70 at addresses  
3FE000h–3FE00Fh in byte mode (or  
1FF000h–1FF007h in word mode).  
Customers may opt to have their code pro-  
grammed by AMD through the AMD Express-  
Flash service. AMD programs the customer’s  
code, with or without the random ESN. The de-  
vices 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.  
AMD offers the device with the SecSi Sector ei-  
ther factory locked or customer lockable. The  
factory-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 SecSi Sector unprotected, allowing  
customers to utilize the that sector in any man-  
ner they choose. The customer-lockable ver-  
sion has the SecSi Sector Indicator Bit  
permanently set to a “0.Thus, the SecSi Sec-  
tor Indicator Bit prevents customer-lockable  
devices from being used to replace devices that  
are factory locked.  
Customer Lockable: SecSi Sector NOT  
Programmed or Protected at the Factory  
The customer lockable version allows the SecSi  
Sector to be programmed once and then per-  
manently locked after it ships from AMD. Note  
that the Am29LV320D has a SecSi Sector  
size of 64 Kbytes. AMD devices designated  
as replacements or substitutes, such as  
the Am29LV320M, have 256 bytes. This  
should be considered during system de-  
sign. Additionally, note the change in the  
location of the ESN in upcoming top boot  
factory locked devices. Note that the accel-  
erated programming (ACC) and unlock bypass  
functions are not available when programming  
the SecSi Sector.  
The system accesses the SecSi Sector through  
a command sequence (see “Enter SecSiTM Sec-  
tor/Exit SecSi Sector Command Sequence” on  
page 26). After the system writes the Enter  
SecSi Sector command sequence, it may read  
the SecSi Sector by using the addresses nor-  
mally 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 sending commands to the  
boot sectors.  
The SecSi Sector area can be protected using  
the following procedures:  
Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Region  
command sequence, and then follow the  
in-system sector protect algorithm as shown  
in Figure 2, on page 19, except that RESET#  
may be at either VIH or VID. This allows  
in-system protection of the SecSi Sector  
without raising any device pin to a high volt-  
age. Note that this method is only applicable  
to the SecSi Sector.  
Factory Locked: SecSi Sector Programmed  
and Protected at the Factory  
In a factory locked device, the SecSi Sector is  
protected when the device is shipped from the  
factory. The SecSi Sector cannot be modified in  
any way. The device is available prepro-  
grammed with one of the following:  
To verify the protect/unprotect status of the  
SecSi Sector, follow the algorithm shown in  
Figure 3, on page 21.

Once the SecSi Sector is locked and verified,  
the system must write the Exit SecSi Sector  
Region command sequence to return to reading  
and writing the remainder of the array.  
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  
.
The SecSi Sector protection must be used with  
caution since, once protected, there is no pro-  
cedure available for unprotecting the SecSi  
Sector area and none of the bits in the SecSi  
Sector memory space can be modified in any  
way.  
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

Hardware Data Protection  
The command sequence requirement of unlock  
cycles for programming or erasing provides  
data protection against inadvertent writes (re-  
fer to Table 14, on page 29 for command defi-  
nitions). In addition, the following hardware  
data protection measures prevent accidental  
erasure or programming, which might other-  
wise be caused by spurious system level signals  
during VCC power-up and power-down transi-  
tions, or from system noise.  
The system can also write the CFI query com-  
mand when the device is in the autoselect  
mode. The device enters the CFI query mode,  
and the system can read CFI data at the ad-  
dresses given in Table 9, on page 22 through  
Table 12, on page 24. The system must write  
the reset command to return the device to the  
reading array data.  
Low VCC Write Inhibit  
When VCC is less than VLKO, the device does not  
accept any write cycles. This protects data dur-  
ing VCC power-up and power-down. The com-  
mand register and all internal program/erase  
circuits are disabled, and the device resets to  
the read mode. Subsequent writes are ignored

COMMAND DEFINITIONS  
Writing specific address and data commands or  
sequences into the command register initiates  
device operations. Table 14, on page 29 defines  
the valid register command sequences. Note  
that writing incorrect address and data values  
or writing them in the improper sequence may  
place the device in an unknown state. A reset  
command is required to return the device to  
normal operation.  
quence before programming begins. This resets  
the device to which the system was writing to  
the read mode. If the program command se-  
quence is written to a sector that is in the Erase  
Suspend mode, writing the reset command re-  
turns the device to the erase-suspend-read  
mode. Once programming begins, however, the  
device ignores reset commands until the opera-  
tion is complete.  
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 Char-  
acteristics section for timing diagrams.  
The reset command may be written between  
the sequence cycles in an autoselect command  
sequence. Once in the autoselect mode, the  
reset command must be written to return to  
the read mode. If the device entered the au-  
toselect mode while in the Erase Suspend  
mode, writing the reset command returns the  
device to the erase-suspend-read mode.  
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 ready to  
read array data after completing an Embedded  
Program or Embedded Erase algorithm.  
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase op-  
eration, writing the reset command returns the  
device to the read mode (or erase-sus-  
pend-read mode if the device was in Erase Sus-  
pend).  
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend  
command, the device enters the erase-sus-  
pend-read mode, after which the system can  
read data from any non-erase-suspended sec-  
tor. After completing a programming operation  
in the Erase Suspend mode, the system may  
once again read array data with the same ex-  
ception. See “Erase Suspend/Erase Resume  
Commands” on page 28 for more information.  
Autoselect Command Sequence  
The autoselect command sequence allows the  
host system to read several identifier codes at  
specific addresses:  
Table 13. Autoselect Codes  
Identifier Code  
Manufacturer ID  
Address  
00h  
The system must issue the reset command to  
return the device to the read (or erase-sus-  
pend-read) mode if DQ5 goes high during an  
active program or erase operation, or if the de-  
vice is in the autoselect mode. See the next  
section, “Reset Command, for more informa-  
tion.

Table 14, on page 29 shows the address and  
data requirements. This method is an alterna-  
tive to that shown in Table 6, on page 16,  
which is intended for PROM programmers and  
requires VID on address pin A9. The autoselect  
command sequence may be written to an ad-  
dress within sector that is either in the read or  
erase-suspend-read mode. The autoselect  
command may not be written while the device  
is actively programming or erasing.  
See also “Requirements for Reading Array  
Data” on page 11 for more information. The  
Read-Only Operations table provides the read  
parameters, and Figure 14, on page 38 shows  
the timing diagram.  
Reset Command  
Writing the reset command resets the device to  
the read or erase-suspend-read mode. Address  
bits are don’t cares for this command.  
The autoselect command sequence is initiated  
by first writing two unlock cycles. This is fol-  
lowed by a third write cycle that contains the  
autoselect command. The device then enters  
the autoselect mode. The system may read at  
any address any number of times without initi-  
ating another autoselect command sequence.  
The reset command may be written between  
the sequence cycles in an erase command se-  
quence before erasing begins. This resets the  
device to which the system was writing to the  
read mode. Once erasure begins, however, the  
device ignores reset commands until the opera-  
tion is complete.  
The system must write the reset command to  
return to the read mode (or erase-sus-  
pend-read mode if the device was previously in  
Erase Suspend).  
The reset command may be written between  
the sequence cycles in a program command se-

Enter SecSiTM Sector/Exit SecSi Sector  
Command Sequence  
tempting to do so may cause the device to set  
DQ5 = 1, or cause the DQ7 and DQ6 status bits  
to indicate the operation was successful. How-  
ever, a succeeding read shows that the data is  
still “0.Only erase operations can convert a  
“0” to a “1.”  
The SecSi Sector region provides a secured  
data area containing a random, sixteen-byte  
electronic serial number (ESN). The system can  
access the SecSi Sector region by issuing the  
three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector command se-  
quence. The device continues to access the  
SecSi Sector region until the system issues the  
four-cycle Exit SecSi Sector command se-  
quence. The Exit SecSi Sector command se-  
quence returns the device to normal operation.  
Table 14, on page 29 shows the address and  
data requirements for both command se-  
quences. Note that the ACC function and unlock  
bypass modes are not available when the de-  
vice enters the SecSi Sector. See also “SecSiTM  
Sector (Secured Silicon) Flash Memory Region”  
on page 20 for further information.  
Unlock Bypass Command Sequence  
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to  
program bytes or words to the device faster  
than using the standard program command se-  
quence. 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-cy-  
cle unlock bypass program command sequence  
is all that is required to program in this mode.  
The first cycle in this sequence contains the un-  
lock bypass program command, A0h; the sec-  
ond cycle contains the program address and  
data. Additional data is programmed 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, on  
page 29 shows the requirements for the com-  
mand sequence.  
Byte/Word Program Command Sequence  
The system may program the device by word or  
byte, depending 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 ad-  
dress and data are written next, which in turn  
initiate the Embedded Program algorithm. The  
system is not required to provide further con-  
trols or timings. The device automatically pro-  
vides internally generated program pulses and  
verifies the programmed cell margin. Table 14,  
on page 29 shows the address and data re-  
quirements for the byte program command se-  
quence. Note that the autoselect, SecSi Sector,  
and CFI modes are unavailable while a pro-  
gramming operation is in progress.  
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Un-  
lock Bypass Program and Unlock Bypass Reset  
commands are valid. To exit the unlock bypass  
mode, the system must issue the two-cycle un-  
lock bypass reset command sequence. The first  
cycle must contain the data 90h. The second  
cycle need only contain the data 00h. The de-  
vice then re turns to the read mode.  
The device offers accelerated program opera-  
tions through the WP#/ACC pin. When the sys-  
tem asserts VHH on the WP#/ACC pin, the  
device automatically enters the Unlock Bypass  
mode. The system may then write the two-cy-  
cle Unlock Bypass program command se-  
quence. 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 program-  
ming, or device damage may result. In addi-  
tion, the WP#/ACC pin must not be left floating  
or unconnected; inconsistent behavior of the  
device may result.  
When the Embedded Program algorithm is  
complete, the device then returns to the read  
mode and addresses are no longer latched. The  
system can determine the status of the pro-  
gram operation by using DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#.  
Refer to “Write Operation Status” on page 30  
for information on these status bits.  
Any commands written to the device during the  
Embedded Program Algorithm are ignored.  
Note that a hardware reset immediately ter-  
minates the program operation. The program  
command sequence should be reinitiated once  
the device returns to the read mode, to ensure  
data integrity.  
Figure 4, on page 27 illustrates the algorithm  
for the program operation. Refer to the table  
“Erase and Program Operations” on page 41 for  
parameters, and Figure 18, on page 42 for tim-  
ing diagrams.  
Programming is allowed in any sequence and  
across sector boundaries. A bit cannot be  
programmed from “0” back to a “1.” At-

writing two unlock cycles, followed by a set-up  
command. Two additional unlock cycles are  
written, and are then followed by the address  
of the sector to be erased, and the sector erase  
command. Table 14, on page 29 shows the ad-  
dress and data requirements for the sector  
erase command sequence. Note that the au-  
toselect, SecSi Sector, and CFI modes are un-  
available while an erase operation is in  
progress.  
Programming  
Completed  
Note: See Table 14, on page 29 for program  
command sequence.  
Figure 4. Program Operation  
The device does not require the system to pre-  
program prior to erase. The Embedded Erase  
algorithm automatically programs and verifies  
the entire memory for an all zero data pattern  
prior to electrical erase. The system is not re-  
quired to provide any controls or timings during  
these operations.  
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 com-  
mand. Two additional unlock write cycles are  
then followed by the chip erase command,  
which in turn invokes the Embedded Erase al-  
gorithm. The device does not require the sys-  
tem to preprogram prior to erase. The  
Embedded Erase algorithm automatically pre-  
programs 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, on page 29 shows the address and  
data requirements for the chip erase command  
sequence. Note that the autoselect, SecSi Sec-  
tor, and CFI modes are unavailable while an  
erase operation is in progress.  
After the command sequence is written, a sec-  
tor erase time-out of 50 µs occurs. During the  
time-out period, additional 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 sector to all sectors. The time be-  
tween these additional cycles must be less than  
50 µs, otherwise the last address and com-  
mand may not be accepted, and erasure may  
begin. It is recommended that processor inter-  
rupts be disabled during this time to ensure all  
commands are accepted. The interrupts can be  
re-enabled after the last Sector Erase com-  
mand is written. Any command other than  
Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the

and commands.  
pended sectors produces status information 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. Refer to  
the “Write Operation Status” on page 30 sec-  
tion for information on these status bits.  
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if  
the sector erase timer timed out (See the sec-  
tion “DQ3: Sector Erase Timer” on page 32.).  
The time-out begins from the rising edge of the  
final WE# pulse in the command sequence.  
After an erase-suspended program operation is  
complete, the device returns to the erase-sus-  
pend-read mode. The system can determine  
the status of the program operation using the  
DQ7 or DQ6 status bits, just as in the standard  
Byte Program operation. Refer to “Write Opera-  
tion Status” on page 30 for more information.  
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is com-  
plete, the device returns to reading array data  
and addresses are no longer latched. The sys-  
tem can determine the status of the erase op-  
eration by reading DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY#  
in the erasing sector. Refer to “Write Operation  
Status” on page 30 for information on these  
status bits.  
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system  
can also issue the autoselect command se-  
quence. Refer to “Autoselect Mode” on page 16  
and “Autoselect Command Sequence” on  
page 25 for details.  
Once the sector erase operation begins, only  
the Erase Suspend command is valid. All other  
commands 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  
the device returns to reading array data, to en-  
sure data integrity.  
To resume the sector erase operation, the sys-  
tem must write the Erase Resume command.  
Further writes of the Resume command are ig-  
nored. Another Erase Suspend command can  
be written after the chip resumes erasing.  
Figure 5, on page 28 illustrates the algorithm  
for the erase operation. Refer to table “Erase  
and Program Operations” on page 41 for pa-  
rameters, and Figure 19, on page 43 for timing  
diagrams.

Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands  
The Erase Suspend command, B0h, allows the  
system to interrupt a sector erase operation  
and then read data from, or program data to,  
any sector not selected for erasure. This com-  
mand is valid only during the sector erase oper-  
ation, including the 50 µs time-out period  
during the sector erase command sequence.

WRITE OPERATION STATUS  
The device provides several bits to determine  
the status of a program or erase operation:  
DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, and DQ7. Table 15, on  
page 33 and the following subsections 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 hard-  
ware-based output signal, RY/BY#, to deter-  
mine whether an Embedded Program or Erase  
operation is in progress or is completed.  
when the system samples the DQ7 output, it  
may read the status or valid data. Even if the  
device completes the program or erase opera-  
tion and DQ7 contains valid data, the data out-  
puts on DQ0–DQ6 may be still invalid. Valid  
data on DQ0–DQ7 appears on successive read  
cycles.  
Table 15, on page 33 shows the outputs for  
Data# Polling on DQ7. Figure 6, on page 30  
shows the Data# Polling algorithm. Figure 20,  
on page 44 in the AC Characteristics section  
shows the Data# Polling timing diagram.  
DQ7: Data# Polling  
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the  
host system whether an Embedded Program or  
Erase algorithm is in progress or completed, or  
whether a device is in Erase Suspend. Data#  
Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final  
WE# pulse in the command sequence.  
START  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
Addr = VA  
During the Embedded Program algorithm, the  
device outputs on DQ7 the complement of the  
datum programmed to DQ7. This DQ7 status  
also applies to programming during Erase Sus-  
pend. When the Embedded Program algorithm  
is complete, the device outputs the datum pro-  
grammed to DQ7. The system must provide the  
program address to read valid status informa-  
tion 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 the read mode.  
Yes  
DQ7 = Data?  
No  
No  
DQ5 = 1?  
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data#  
Polling produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Em-  
bedded Erase algorithm is complete, or if the  
device enters the Erase Suspend mode, Data#  
Polling produces a “1” on DQ7. The system  
must provide an address within any of the sec-  
tors selected for erasure to read valid status in-  
formation on DQ7.  
Yes  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
Addr = VA  
Yes  
DQ7 = Data?  
After an erase command sequence is written, if  
all sectors selected for erasing are protected,  
Data# Polling on DQ7 is active for approxi-  
mately 100 µs, then the device returns to the  
read mode. If not all selected sectors are pro-  
tected, 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 de-  
vice may change from providing status infor-  
mation to valid data on DQ7. Depending on  
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = “1”  
because DQ7 may change simultaneously with  
DQ5.

DQ6 also toggles during the erase-sus-  
pend-program mode, and stops toggling once  
the Embedded Program algorithm is complete.  
RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#  
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output  
pin which indicates whether an Embedded Al-  
gorithm 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.  
Table 15, on page 33 shows the outputs for  
Toggle Bit I on DQ6. Figure 7, on page 31  
shows the toggle bit algorithm. Figure 21, on  
page 45 in the “AC Characteristics” section  
shows the toggle bit timing diagrams. Figure  
22, on page 45 shows the differences between  
DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the  
subsection on DQ2: Toggle Bit II.  
If the output is low (Busy), the device is ac-  
tively erasing or programming. (This includes  
programming in the Erase Suspend mode.) If  
the output is high (Ready), the device is in the  
read mode, the standby mode, or in the  
erase-suspend-read mode. Table 15, on  
page 33 shows the outputs for RY/BY#.  
START  
DQ6: Toggle Bit I  
Read DQ7–DQ0  
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Em-  
bedded Program or Erase algorithm is in  
progress or complete, or whether the device  
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 sector erase  
time-out.  
Read DQ7–DQ0

Toggle Bit

During an Embedded Program or Erase algo-

address cause DQ6 to toggle. The system may  
use either OE# or CE# to control the read cy-  
cles. When the operation is complete, DQ6  
stops toggling.  
Yes  
No  
DQ5 = 1?

After an erase command sequence is written, if  
all sectors selected for erasing are protected,  
DQ6 toggles for approximately 100 µs, then re-  
turns to reading array data. If not all selected  
sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase al-  
gorithm erases the unprotected sectors, and ig-  
nores the selected sectors that are protected.

The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to  
determine whether a sector is actively erasing  
or is erase-suspended. When the device is ac-  
tively erasing (that is, the Embedded Erase al-  
gorithm is in progress), DQ6 toggles. When the  
device enters the Erase Suspend mode, DQ6  
stops toggling. However, the system must also  
use DQ2 to determine which sectors are eras-  
ing or erase-suspended. Alternatively, the sys-  
tem can use DQ7 (see the subsection on “DQ7:

Note: The system should recheck the toggle bit  
even if DQ5 = “1” because the toggle bit may stop

on DQ6 and DQ2 for more information.  
If a program address falls within a protected  
sector, DQ6 toggles for approximately 1 µs  
after the program command sequence is writ-  
ten, then returns to reading array data.

write the reset command to return to reading  
array data.  
DQ2: Toggle Bit II  
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 sec-  
tor is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit II is valid  
after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in  
the command sequence.  
The remaining scenario is that the system ini-  
tially determines 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 para-  
graph. 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 determine the status of the  
operation (top of Figure 7, on page 31).  
DQ2 toggles when the system reads at ad-  
dresses within those sectors that were selected  
for erasure. (The system may use either OE#  
or CE# to control the read cycles.) But DQ2  
cannot distinguish whether the sector is ac-  
tively erasing or is erase-suspended. DQ6, by  
comparison, indicates whether the device is ac-  
tively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but can-  
not distinguish which sectors are selected for  
erasure. Thus, both status bits are required for  
sector and mode information. Refer to Table 15,  
on page 33 to compare outputs for DQ2 and  
DQ6.  
DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits  
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase  
time 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 sys-  
tem tries to program a “1” to a location that  
was 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 timing limit is ex-  
ceeded, DQ5 produces a “1.”  
Figure 7, on page 31 shows the toggle bit algo-  
rithm in flowchart form, and the section “DQ2:  
Toggle Bit II” on page 32 explains the algo-  
rithm. See also the DQ6: Toggle Bit I subsec-  
tion. Figure 21, on page 45 shows the toggle bit  
timing diagram. Figure 22, on page 45 shows  
the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in  
graphical form.  
Under both these conditions, the system must  
write the reset command to return to the read  
mode (or to the erase-suspend-read mode if  
the device was previously in the erase-sus-  
pend-program mode).  
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2  
Refer to Figure 7, on page 31 for the following  
discussion. Whenever the system initially be-  
gins 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  
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 completed the pro-  
gram or erase operation. The system can read  
array data on DQ7–DQ0 on the following read  
cycle.  
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer  
After writing a sector erase command se-  
quence, the system may read DQ3 to deter-  
mine whether or not erasure started. (The  
sector erase timer does not apply to the chip  
erase command.) If additional sectors are se-  
lected for erasure, the entire time-out also ap-  
plies after each additional sector erase  
command. When the time-out period is com-  
plete, DQ3 switches from a “0” to a “1.If the  
time between additional sector erase com-  
mands from the system can be assumed to be  
less than 50 µs, the system need not monitor  
DQ3. See also the Sector Erase Command Se-  
quence section.  
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the  
system determines that the toggle bit is still  
toggling, the system also should note whether  
the value of DQ5 is high (see the section on  
DQ5). If it is, the system should then deter-  
mine 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 successfully com-  
pleted the program or erase operation. If it is  
still toggling, the device did not completed the  
operation successfully, and the system must  
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 accepted the command sequence, and  
then read DQ3. If DQ3 is “1,the Embedded  
Erase algorithm started; all further commands  
(except Erase Suspend) are ignored until the  
erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,the

device accepts additional sector erase com-  
mands. To ensure the command is 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.

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, on page 29 for further information on command definitions.  
6. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 1,000,000 cycles.
