GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29LV320MH/L is a 32 Mbit, 3.0 volt single
power supply flash memory device organized as
2,097,152 words or 4,194,304 bytes. The device has
an 8-bit/16-bit bus and can be p rogrammed either in
the host system or in standard EPROM programmers.
An access time of 90, 100, 110, or 120 ns is available.
Note that each access time has a specific operating
voltage range (VCC) and an I/O voltage range (VIO), as
specified in the Product Selector Guide and the Order-
ing Information sections. The device is offered in a
56-pin TSOP or 64-ball Fortified BGA package. Each
device has separate chip enable (C E#), write enable
(WE#) and output enable (OE#) controls.
Each device requires only a single 3.0 volt power
supply for both read and write functions. In addit i on to
a VCC input, a high-voltage accelerated program
(ACC) feature provides shor ter programming times
through increased c urrent on the WP#/ACC input. This
feature is intended to facilitate factory throughpu t dur-
ing system production, but may also be used in the
field if desired.
The device is entirely command set compatible with
the JEDEC single-power-supply Flash standard.
Com mands ar e wri tten to the device usin g standa rd
microprocessor write timing. Write cycles also inter-
nally latch addresses and data need ed for the pr o-
gr amming and er ase operations.
The sect or erase architecture allows memory sec-
tors to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting
the da ta co ntents of othe r se ctors. The device is fu lly
erased when shipped from the factory.
Device programming and erasure are initiated through
command sequences. Once a program or erase oper-
ation has begun, the host system n eed only poll the
DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (toggle) status bits or
monitor the Ready/Busy# (RY/BY#) output to deter-
mine wh ether the operation is compl ete. To facilitate
programming, an Un l o ck Bypas s mode reduc es com-
mand sequence overhead by requiring only two write
cycles to program data instead of four.
The VersatileI/O™ (VIO) control allows the host sys-
tem to set the voltage levels that the device generates
and tolerates on the CE# control input and DQ I/Os to
the same voltage level that is asser ted on the VIO pin.
Refer to the Ordering Inform ation section for valid VIO
options.
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 sectors of memor y.
This can be achieved in-system or via programming
equipment.
The Erase Suspend/Erase Resume feature allows
the host system to pause an eras e operation in a giv en
secto r to read or program any oth er sector and the n
complete the erase operation. The Program Sus-
pend/P rogram Resume f eature enables the host sys-
tem to pause a program operation in a given sector to
read any other sector a nd then complete the program
operation.
The hardware RE SET# pin term inates any operation
in progress and resets the device, after whic h it is then
ready for a new operation. T he RESET # pin may be
tied to the system res et circuitry. A system reset would
thus also reset the device, enabling the host system to
read boot-up firmware from the Flash memory device.
The device reduces power consumption in the
standby mode when it detects sp ecific voltage levels
on CE# and RESET#, or when addresses have been
stable for a specified period of time.
The Write Protect (WP#) feature protects the first or
last sector by assert ing a logic low on the WP#/ACC
pin. The protected sector will still be protected even
during accelerated programming.
The SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector provides a
128-word/256-byte area for code or data that can be
per mane ntly prote cted. On ce this s ector is protecte d,
no fur ther changes within the sector can occur.
AMD MirrorBit flash technology combines years of
Flash mem ory manufacturing experience to pro duce
the highest levels of quality, reliability and cost effec-
tiveness . The device electrically erases all bits within a
sector simultaneously via hot-hole ass i st ed erase . The
data is programmed using hot electron injection.

DEVICE BUS OPERATIONS
This section describes the requirements and use of
the device bus operations, which are i nitiated throug h
the internal comm and register. The command register
itself d oes not occ upy any addre ssable memor y loca-
tion. The register is a latch used to store the com-
mands, alo ng with the add ress and da ta info rmatio n
needed to exec ute the command. The con tents of the
regist er ser ve as inputs to the inter nal state machi ne.
The state machine outputs dictate the function of the
device. Table 1 lists the device bus operations, the in-
puts and control levels they require, and the resulting
output. The following subsections describe each of
these operations in further detail.

Word/Byte Configuration
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device da ta I/O
pins operate in the byte or word configurati on. If the
BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘1’, the dev ice is in word con-
figuration, DQ0–D Q15 are active and controlled by
CE# and OE#.
If the BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘0’, the device is in byte
configuration, and only data I/O pins DQ0–DQ7 are
active and controlled by CE# and OE#. The data I/O
pins DQ8–DQ14 are tri-stated, and the DQ15 pin is
used as an input for the LSB (A-1) address function.
VersatileIO (VIO) Control
The VersatileIO™ (VIO) control allows the host system
to set the voltage levels that the device generates and
tolerates on CE# and DQ I/Os to the same voltage
level that is assert ed on VIO. See “Order ing Inform a-
tion” on page 9 for V IO options on this device.

For examp le, a VI/O of 1.65–3.6 vo lts allows for I/O at
the 1.8 or 3 volt levels, driving and receiving signals to
and from other 1.8 or 3 V devices on the same data
bus.
Requirements for Reading Array Data
To read array data from th e outputs, the system must
drive the CE# and OE# pins to VIL. CE# is the power
control and selects the device. OE# is the output con-
trol and gates array data to the output pins. WE#
should remain at VIH.
The internal state machine is set for reading array data
upon device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This
ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory
content occurs during the power transition. No com-
mand is necessary in this mode to obtain array data.
Standard microprocessor read cycles that asser t valid
addresses on the device address inputs produce valid
data on the device data outputs. The device remains
enabled for read access until the command register
contents are altered.
See Reading Array Data” for more information. Refer
to the A C Read-Only Operations table for timing speci-
fications and to Figure 13 f or the timing diag r am. Refer
to the DC Character istics table for the active current
specification on reading array data.
Page Mode Read
The device is capable of fast page mode read and is
compatible with the page mode Mask ROM read oper-
atio n. This mo de provide s faster r ead acc ess spee d
for random locations within a page. The page size of
the device is 4 words/8 bytes. The appropriate page is
selected by the higher address bits A(max)–A2. Ad-
dress bits A1–A0 in word mode (A1–A-1 in b yt e mode)
determine the specific word within a page. This is an
asynchr onous operation; the microprocessor supplies
the specific word location.
The random or initial page access is equal to tACC or
tCE and subsequent page read ac cesses (as long as
the locations specified by the microprocessor falls
within that page) is equivalent to tPACC. W hen CE# is
deasserted and reasserted for a subsequent access,
the access time is tACC or tCE. Fast page mode ac-
cesses are obtained by keeping the “read-page ad-
dresses ” constant a nd changing the “in tra-read page
addresses.
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.
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.
An erase oper at ion can er ase one se ctor, multiple s ec-
tors, or the entire device. Table 2 indicates the address
space that each sector occupies.
Refer to the DC Characteristics table for the active
current specification for the write mode. The AC Char-
acteristics se ction contai ns timing spec ificatio n tables
and timing diagrams for write operations.
Write Buffer
Write Buff er Programming all ows the system to write a
maximum of 16 words/32 bytes in one programming
operation. This results in faster effec tive programming
time than the standard programming algorithms. See
“Write Buffer” for more information.
Accelerated Program Operation
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the ACC function. This is one of two functions
provided by the WP#/ACC pin. This function is pr ima-
ri ly intend ed to allow faster manufactur ing thro ughp ut
at the factory.
If the system asser t s VHH on this pin, the dev ice auto-
matically enters the aforementioned Unlock Bypass
mode, temporar ily unprotects any protected sectors,
and uses the higher voltage on the pin to reduce the
time required for program operations. The system
would us e a two-cycle program comman d sequence
as required by the Unlock Bypass mode. Removing
VHH from the WP #/ACC pin retu rn s the device to no r-
mal operation.
Note that the WP#/A CC pin must not be
at V
HH
for operations other than accelerated program-
ming, or device damage may result. In addition, no ex -
ternal pullup is necessar y since the WP#/ACC pin has
internal pullup to V
CC.
A utoselect Functions
If the system writes the autoselect command se-
quence, the device enters th e autoselect mod e. 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 mo de. Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autose-
lect Comm and Sequence sections for more informa -
tion.
Standby Mode
When the system is no t reading or wr iting to the de-
vice, it can place the device in the stan dby mode. In
this mode, current consumption is greatly reduced,
12 Am29LV320MH/L February 12, 2004
PRELIMINARY
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 VIO ± 0.3 V.
(Note that this is a m ore restr icted voltage range than
VIH.) I f CE# and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within
VIO ± 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.
If the devic e is deselected during erasure or program-
ming, the device draws active current until the
operation is completed.
Refer to the DC Characteristics table for the standby
current specification.
Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sl eep mode minimiz es Flash device en-
ergy consumption. The device automatically enables
this mode whe n 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 change d. While in sleep mode, o utput
data is latched and always available to the system.
Refer to the DC Characteristics table for the automatic
sleep mode current specification.
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESE T# pin provides a hardware method of re-
setting the device to reading arr ay 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/w rite command s 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 a nother com mand se quence, to en-
sure data integrity.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET#
pulse. When RESET# is held at VSS±0.3 V, the device
dra ws CMOS stand b y cu rrent ( ICC4). If RE SET# is held
at VIL but not within VSS±0.3 V, the standby current will
be greater.
The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset cir-
cuitr y. A system re set would thus also r eset the Flash
memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up firm-
ware from the Flash memory.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET# pa-
rameters and to Figure 16 for the timing diagram.
Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at VIH, output fr om the de v ice is
disabled. The output pins are placed in the high
impedance state.

Autoselect Mode
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and de-
vice i dentification, a nd sector pr otection verificatio n,
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
algori thm. However, the autoselect codes can als o be
accessed in-system through the command register.
When using programming equipmen t, the autoselect
mode requires VID on address pin A9. Address pins
A6, A3, A2, A1 , and A0 must be as shown in Table 3.
In addition, when v erifying sector protection, the sector
address must appear on the appropriate highest order
address bits (see Table 2). Table 3 shows the remain-
ing address bits that are don’t care. When all neces-
sar y bits have been set as required, the programming
equipment m ay then read the corresp onding identifier
code on DQ7–DQ0.
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host
system can issue the autoselect command via the
command register, as show n in Tables 10 and 11. This
method does not require VID. Refer to the Autoselect
Command Sequence section for more information.

Sector Group Protection and
Unprotection
The hardware sector group protection feature disables
both program and erase operations in any sector
group. In this device, a sector group consists of four
adjacent sectors that are protected or unprotected at
the same time (see Table 4). The hardware sector
group unp rotection feature re-en ables both program
and erase operations in previously protected sector
groups. Sector group pro tection/unprotection can b e
implemented via two methods.
Sector protection/unprotection requires VID on the RE-
SET# pin only, and can be implemented either in-sys-
tem or via programming equipment. Figure 2 shows
the algorithms and F igure 24 shows the timing dia-
gram. This method uses standard microprocessor bus
cycle timing. For sector group unprotect, all unpro-
tected sector groups must first be protected prior to
the first sector g r oup unprotect write cycle.
The device is shipped with all sector groups unpro-
tected. AMD offers the option of prog r amming and pro-
tecting sector g roups at its factory prior to shipping the
device through AMD’s ExpressFlash™ Service. Con-
tact an AMD representative for details.
It is poss ible to deter mine whether a sector group is
protected or unprotected. See the Autoselect Mode
section for details.

Write Protect (WP#)
The Write Protect function provides a hardware
method of protecting the first or last sector without
using VID. Write Protect is one of two functions pro-
vided by the WP#/ACC input.
If th e system assert s V IL on the WP#/ACC pin, the de-
vice disables program and erase functions in the first
or last sector independently of whether those sectors
were protecte d or unprotected using the method de-
scribed in “Sector Group Pr otectio n and Unprote ction”.
Note that if W P#/ACC is at VIL w hen the device is in
the stan dby mode, the m aximum in put load curren t is
increased. See the table in “DC Characteristics”.
If the system a sserts VIH on the WP#/ACC pin, the de-
vice rever ts to whether the first or last sector was pre-
viously set to be protected or unprotected using the
method described in “Sector Group P rotection and
Unprotection”.
Note: No external pullup is necessar y
since the WP#/ACC pin has internal pullup to V
CC
.
Temporary Sector Group Unprotect
(Note: In this device, a sector group consists of four adjacent
sectors that are protected or unprotected at the same time
(see Table 4).
This feature allows temporary unprotection of prev i-
ously protected sector groups to change data in-sys-
tem. The Sector Group Unprotect mode is activated by
setting the RESET# pin to VID. During this mode, for-
mer ly protected sector groups can be pro grammed o r
erased by selecting the sector group addresses. Once
VID is remov ed from the RESET# pin, all the prev iously
protected sec tor groups are protected again. Figu re 1
shows the al gor ithm, and Fi gure 2 3 shows the tim ing

SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector Flash
Memory Region
The SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector fe ature provides a
Flash memory region that enables permanent part
identification through an Electronic Serial Number
(ESN). The SecSi Sector is 256 bytes in length, an d
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 f actory locke d part. This ensures the secu-
rity of the ES N once the produc t is s hipped to the field.
AMD offers the device with the SecSi Sector either
custo mer lockable (standar d shipping optio n) or fac-
tory locked (contact an AMD sales representative for
ordering information). The customer-lockable version
is shipped with the SecSi Sector unprotected, allowing
customers to program the sector after receiving the
device. The customer-lockable version also has the
SecSi Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a “0.
The factory-lo cked versio n is always protected whe n
shipped from the factory, and has the SecSi (Secured
Silicon) Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a “1.
Thus, the SecSi Sector Indicator Bit prevents cus-
tomer-lockabl e devices from being used to replace de-
vices that are factory locked.
Note that the ACC
functi on and un lock bypass m odes are not ava ilable
when the SecSi Sector is enabled.
The SecSi sec tor address space in this device is allo-
cated as follows:
The system accesses the SecSi Sector through a
command sequence (see “Enter SecSi Sector/Exit
SecSi Sector Command Sequence”). After th e sys tem
has written the Enter SecSi Sector command se-
quence, it may read the SecSi Sector by using the ad-
dresse s nor mally oc cupied by the firs t sector (SA0 ).
This mode of operation continues until the system is-
sues the Exit SecSi S ector command sequence, or
until power is rem oved from the device. On power-up,
or following a hardware reset, the device rever ts to
sending commands to sector SA0.
Customer Lockable: SecSi Sector NOT
Programmed or Protected At the Factory
Unless otherwise specified, the device is s hipped such
that the customer may program and protect the
256-byte SecSi sector.
The system may program the SecSi Sector using the
write-buffer, accelerated and/or unlock bypass meth-
ods, in addition to the standard programming com-
mand sequence. See Command Definitions.
Progr amming and pr otectin g th e SecSi Se ctor m ust be
used with caution since, once protected, there is no
proced ure available for unprotecting the SecSi Sector
area and none of the bits in the SecSi Sector memory
space can be modified in any way.
The Sec Si Sector area can be pro tected using one of
the following procedures:
Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector Region
command sequence, and then follow the in-system
sector protect algorithm as shown in Figure 2, ex-
cept that
RESET# may be at either V
IH
or V
ID
. This
allows in-system protection of the SecSi Sector
without raising any device pin to a high voltage.
Note that thi s method is only applicable t o the SecSi
Sector.
To verify the protect/unprotect status of the SecSi
Sector, follow the algorithm shown in Figure 3.
Once th e SecSi Sector is programmed, locked and
verified, the system must write the Exit SecSi Sector
Region command sequence to return to reading and
writing within the remainder of the array.
Factory Locked: SecSi Sector Programmed and
Protected At the Factory
In devices with an ESN, the SecSi Sector is protected
when the de vice is shipped from the factory. The S ecSi
Sector canno t be m odified in any way. An ES N Factory
Locked device has an 16-byte random ESN at ad-
dresses 000000h–000007h. Please contact your local
AMD sales represe ntative for details on ordering ESN
Factory Locked devices.
Customers may opt to have their code programmed b y
AMD through the AMD ExpressFlash service (Express
Flash Fac tor y Locked). Th e devices are the n ship ped
from AMD’s fact ory with the SecSi Sector permanently
locked. Contact an AMD representative for details on
using AMD’s ExpressFlash service.

Hardware Data Protection
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles
for programming or erasing provide s data protectio n
against inadver tent writes (refer to Tables 10 and 11
for command definitions). In addition, th e following
hardware data protection measures pre vent 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 V CC Write Inhibit
When VCC is les s than VLKO, the device does not ac-
cept any write cycles. This protects data dur ing VCC
power-up and power-down. The command register
and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled,
and the device resets to the read mode. Subsequent
writes are ignored until VCC is greater than VLKO. The
system must provide the proper signals to the control
pins to prevent unintentional writes when VCC is
greater than VLKO.
Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE#
or WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
Logical In hibit
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# =
VIL, CE# = VIH or WE # = VIH. To initiate a write cycle,
CE# and WE # must be a logical zero while OE# is a
logical one.
Po wer-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# = VIL and OE# = VIH duri ng power up,
the device does not accept commands on the rising
edge of WE #. The inter nal state mac hine is automati-
cally reset to the read mode on power-up.
COMMON FLASH MEMORY INTERFACE (CFI)
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification out-
lines device and host system software interrogation
handshake, which allows specific vendor-specified
software algorithms to be used for entire families of
devices. Software support can then be device-inde-
pendent, JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and
backward-compatible for the specified flash device
families. Flash vendors can standardize their existing
interfaces for long-term compatibility.
This device enters the CFI Query mode when the sys-
tem writes the CFI Query command, 98h, to address
55h, any time the device is ready to read array data.
The system can read CFI inf ormation at the addresses
given in Tables 69. To ter minate reading CFI data,
the system must write the reset command.
The system can als o write the CFI quer y command
when the device is in the autoselect mode. The device
enters the CFI quer y mode, and the system can read
CFI data at the addresses given in Tables 69. The
system must write the reset command to return the
device to reading array data.

which the system can read data from any
non-erase-suspended sector. After completing a pro-
gramming operation in the Erase Suspend mode, the
system may once again read array data with the same
exception. See the Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
Commands section for more information.
The system
must
issue the reset command to retur n
the de vice to the read (or eras e-suspend-read) mode if
DQ5 goes high dur ing an active program or erase op-
eration, or if the device is in the autoselect mode. See
the next section, Reset Command, for more infor ma-
tion.
See also Requirements for R eading Array Data in the
Device Bus Operations section for more information.
The Read-Only Oper ation s table provides the read pa-
rameters, and Figure 13 shows the timing diagram.
Reset Command
Writing the reset command resets the device to the
read o r erase-sus pend-read mode. Addres s bits are
don’t cares for this command.
The rese t command may be written b etween the se-
quence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the device to the read
mode. Once e rasure begin s, however, th e dev ice ig-
nores reset commands until the operation is complete .
The reset command may be written between the
sequence cycles in a program command sequence
before programming begins. This resets the device to
the read mode. If the p rogram comm and seque nce is
written while the device is in the Eras e Su spend mode ,
writing the reset command retur ns the device to the
erase-suspend-read mode. Once programming be-
gins, however, the device ignores reset commands
until the operation is complete.
The rese t command may be written b etween the se-
quence 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 de-
vice ente red the autoselec t mode whil e in the Erase
Suspend mode, writing the reset command returns the
device to the erase-suspend-read mode.
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command retur ns the device to the
read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if the device
was in Erase Suspend).
Note tha t if DQ 1 goes high dur ing a W rite Buffer Pro-
gramming operation, the system must write the
Write-to-Buffer-Abort Reset comm and sequence to
reset the device for the next operation.
Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host
system to read several identifier codes at specific ad-
dresses:
Note: The device ID i s read o ver three cy cles. SA = Sector
Address
Tables 10 and 11 show the address requirements and
codes. This method is an alternative to that shown in
Table 3, which is intended for PROM programmers
and requires VID on address pin A9. The autoselect
command sequence may be written to an a ddress that
is either in the read or erase-suspend-read mode. The
autoselect com mand may not be written while the de-
vice is activ ely prog ramming or erasing.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by first
writing two unlock cycles. This is followed 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
initiating another autos elect command sequence:
The system must write the reset command to return to
the read mode (or erase-su spend-read mode if the de-
vice was previously in Erase Suspend).
Enter SecSi Sector/Exit SecSi Sector
Command Sequence
The SecSi Sector region provides a secured data area
containing an 8-word/16-byte r andom Electronic Serial
Number (ESN). The system can access the SecSi
Sector region by issuing the three-cycle Enter SecSi
Sector command sequence. The device continues to
access the SecSi Sector region until the system is-
sues the four-cycle Exit SecSi Sector command se-
quence. The Exit SecSi Sector command sequence
retur ns the device to nor mal operation. Tables 10 and
11 show the address and data requirements for both
command sequences. See also “SecS i (Secur ed Sili-
con) Sector Flash Memory Region” for furt her in fo rma -
tion.
Note that the ACC function and unlock bypass
modes are not available when the SecSi Sector is en-
abled.

gram com mand se quence, re spectively.
Note th at the
SecSi Sector, autoselect, and CFI functions are un-
available when a program operat ion is in progress.
When the E mbedd ed Program a lgor ithm is comple te,
the device then returns to the read mode and ad-
dresses are no longer latched. The system can deter-
mine the status of the program operation by using
DQ7 or DQ6. Refer to the Write Operation Status sec-
tion for information on these status bits.
Any commands written to the device during the Em-
bedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note tha t a
hardware res et immediately term inates the program
operation. The program command sequence should
be reinitiated once the dev ice has returned to the read
mode, to ensure data int egrity.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across
sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed
from “0” back to a “1.Attempting to do so may
cause the device to set DQ5 = 1, or cause the DQ7
and DQ6 status bits to indic ate the operation was suc-
cessful. Howe ver , a succeeding read will show that the
data is still “0.” Only erase operatio ns can con vert a “0”
to a “1.
Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to pro-
gram words to the device faster than using the stan-
dard progr am command sequence . Th e unloc k bypass
command sequenc e is initiated by first writing two un-
lock cycles. This is followed by a third write cycle con-
taining the unlock bypass command, 20h. The device
then enters the unlock bypass mode. A two-cycle un-
lock bypass program command sequence is all that is
required to program in this mode. The first cycle in this
sequence c ontains the unlock bypass program com-
mand, A0h; the second 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 standard program
comm and sequence, resu lting in faster total program-
ming time. Tables 10 and 11 show the r equirements
for the command sequence.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock By-
pass Program a nd Unlock Bypass Reset c ommands
are valid. To ex it the unlock bypass mode, the system
must issue the two-cycle unlock bypass reset com-
mand sequence. The first cycle must contain the data
90h. The second cycle must contain the data 00h. The
device then returns to the read mode.
Write Buffer Programming
Write Buff er Programming all ows the system write to a
maximum of 16 words/32 bytes in one programming
operation. This results in faster effec tive programming
time than the standard programming algor ithms. The
Write Buffer Programming command sequence is initi-
ated by first writing two unlock cycles. This is followed
by a third write cycle containing the Write Buffer Load
command written at the Sector Address in which pro-
gramming will occur. The fourth cycle writes the sector
address and the number of word locations, minus one,
to be programmed. For example , if the system will pro-
gram 6 uni que addre ss lo cations, then 05 h shoul d be
written to the device. This tells the device how many
write buffer addresses will be loaded with data and
therefore when to expect the Pro gram Buffe r to Flash
command. The number of locations to program cannot
exceed the size of the write buffer or the operation will
abort.
The fifth cycle writes the first address location and
data to be programmed. The write-buffer-page is se-
lected by address bits AMAX–A4. All subsequent ad-
dress/data pairs must fall within the
selected-write-buffer-page. The system then writes the
remaining address/data pairs into the write buffer.
Write buffer locations may be loaded in any order.
The wr ite-buffer -page address must b e the same for
all address/data pairs loaded into the write buffer.
(This means Write Buffer Programming cannot be per-
formed across multiple write-buffer pages. This also
mean s that W rite Buffer Programming cannot be per-
form ed across multiple sectors. If the system attempts
to load programming data outside of the selected
write-buffer page, the operation will abort.
Note that if a Write Buffer address location is loaded
multiple times, the address/data pair counter will be
decremented for every data load operation. The host
system must therefore account for loading a
write-buffer location more than once. The counter dec-
rements for each data load operation, not for each
unique write-buffer-address location. Note also that if
an address location is loaded more than onc e into the
buffer, the final data loaded for that address will be
programmed.
Once the specified number of write buffer locations
have been loaded, the system m ust then write t he Pro-
gram Buffer to Flash comman d at the sector addr ess.
Any other address and data combination aborts the
Write Buff er Progr amming ope rat ion. The device then
begins programming. Data polling should be used
while monito ring the last a ddress location loaded into
the write buffer. DQ7, DQ6, DQ5, and DQ1 should be
monitored to determine the device status during Write
Buffer Programming.

The wr ite-buffer programming o peration can be sus -
pended using the standard program suspend/resume
commands. Upon successful completion of the Write
Buffer Programming operation, the device is ready to
execute the next command.
The Write Buffer Programming Sequence can be
aborted in the f ollowing ways:
Load a value that is greater than the page buffer
size during the Number of Locations to Program
step.
Write to an address in a sector different than the
one specified during the Write-Buffer-Load com-
mand.
Write an Address/Data pair to a different
write-buffer-page than the one selected by the
Starting Address during the write buffer data load-
ing stage of the operation.
Write data other than the Confirm Command after
the specified number of data load cycles.
The ab ort condition is indicated by DQ1 = 1, DQ7 =
DATA# (for the la st addres s location l oaded), DQ 6 =
toggle, and DQ5=0. A Write-to-Buffer-Abor t Reset
command sequen ce must be written to reset the de-
vice for the next operation. Note that the full 3-cycle
Write-to-Buffer-Abort Reset command sequence is re-
quired when using Wr ite-Buffer-Programming features
in Unlock Bypass mode.
Accelerated Program
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the WP#/ACC pin. When the system asser ts
VHH on the WP#/ACC pin, the device automatic ally en-
ters the Unlock Bypass mode. The system may then
write the two-cycle Unlock Bypass program command
sequence. The device uses the higher voltage on the
WP#/ACC p in to acce lerate the operati on.
Note th at
the
WP#/
ACC pin must not be at V
HH
for operations
other than accelerated programming, or dev ice dam-
age may result. In addition, no external pullup is nec-
essary since the WP#/ACC pin has internal pullup to

Figure 5. Program Operation
Program Suspend/Program Resume
Command Sequence
The Program Suspend command allow s the system to
interrupt a programming operation or a Write to Buffer
programming operation so that data can be read from
any non-suspended sector. When the Program Sus-
pend command is written during a programm ing pro-
cess, the device halts the program operation within 15
µs (maximum) 5µs typical and updates the status bits.
Addresses are not requir ed when writing the Pro gram
Suspend command.
After the programming operation has been sus-
pended, the system can read array data from any
non- suspend ed sec tor. T he Program Susp end com-
mand may also be issued during a programming oper-
ation while an erase is suspended. In this case, data
may be read from any addresses not in Erase Sus-
pend or Program Suspend. If a read is needed from
the SecSi Sector are a (One-time Program area), then
user must use the proper command sequences to
enter and exit this region.
The system may also write the autoselect command
sequence when the device is in the Program Suspend
mode. The system can read as many autos elect codes
as required. When the device exits the autoselect
mode, the device reverts to the Program Suspend
mode, and is ready for another valid operation. See
Autoselect Command Sequence for more information.
After the Program Resume command is written, the
device rever ts to programming. The system can deter-
mine the status of the pro gram operation using the
DQ7 or DQ6 status bits, just as in the standard pro-
gram operat ion. See Wr ite Operation Status for mo re
information.
The system must write the Program Resume com-
mand (address bits are don’t care) to exit the Program
Suspend mod e and continue the programming opera-
tion. Fu rt her wr ites of the Res ume comm and are ig-
nored. Another Program Suspend command can be
written after the device has resume programming.

Chip Erase Command Sequence
Chip erase is a si x b us cy cle oper ation. The chip er ase
command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock
cycles, fo llowed by a set-up command. Two additional
unlock write cycles ar e then followed by the chip erase
command, which in turn invokes the Embedded Erase
algorithm. The device does
not
require the system to
preprogr am prior to eras e. The Embedded Erase algo-
rithm automatically preprogr ams a nd v erifies the entire
memory for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical
erase. The system is not requ ired to provide any con-
trols or timings during these operations. Tables 10 and
11 show the address and data requirements for the
chip erase com mand sequence.
Note that the SecSi
Sector, autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable
when a erase operation is in prog ress.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the
device retu rns to the read mode and addresses are no
longer latched. The system can determine the status
of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6, or DQ2.
Refer to the Write Operation Status s ec t i on fo r in fo r-
mation on these status bits.
Any commands written during the chip er as e oper ation
are ignored. However, note that a hardware reset im-
mediately terminates the erase operation. If that oc-
curs, the chip erase command sequence should be
reinitiated once the device has re turned to reading
array data, to ensure data integrity.
Figure 7 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-
tion. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations ta-
bles in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 19 section for timing diagr ams.
Sector Erase Command Sequence
Sector erase is a six bus cycle operation. The sector
erase command sequence is initiated by writing two
unlock cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two ad-
ditional unlock cycles are written, and are then fol-
lowed by the address of the sector to be erased, and
the sector eras e command. Tab les 10 and 11 show the
address and data requirements for the sector erase
command sequence.
Note that the SecSi Sector, au-
toselect, an d CFI functions are unavailable when a
erase operation is in progress.
The device does
not
require the system to preprogram
prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm auto-
matically programs and verifi es the entire m emor y for
an all zero data patter n prior to electr ical erase. The
system is not required to provide any controls or tim-
ings during these operations.
After the command sequence is written, a sector er ase
time-out of 50 µs occurs. During the time-out period,
additio nal sector addre sses and secto r erase com -
mands may be written. Loading t he sector erase buffer
ma y be done in any sequence , and the number of sec-
tors may be from one sector to all sectors. The time
between these addition al cycles must be les s than 50
µs, ot herwise er asure may begin. Any sect or eras e ad-
dress and command following the exceeded time-out
may or may not be accepted. It is recommended that
processor interrupts be disab led during this ti me to en-
sure all comm ands are accepted. The interrupts can
be re-enabled after the last Sector Erase command is
written. Any command other than Sector Erase or
Erase Suspend during the time-out p eriod resets
the device to the read mode. The system must re-
write the command sequence and any additional ad-
dresses and commands.
The sy stem can mon itor DQ3 to deter mine if the s ec-

When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the
device returns to reading array data and addresses
are no longer latched. The system can deter mine the
status of the erase operation by reading DQ7, DQ6, or
DQ2 in the erasing sector. Refer to the W rite Opera-
tion Status section for information on these status bits .
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the
Erase Suspend command is valid. All other com-
mands are ignored. However, note that a hardware
reset immediately ter minates the erase op eration. If
that occurs, the sector erase command sequence
should be reinitiated once the dev ice has returned to
reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
Figure 7 illustrates the algorithm for the erase opera-
tion. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations ta-
bles in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 19 section for timing diagrams.
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
Commands
The Erase Suspend command, B0h, allows the sys-
tem to interrupt a sector erase oper ation and then read
data from, or program data to, any sector not selected
f or erasure . This command is valid only during the sec-
tor erase operation, includi ng the 50 µs time -out pe-
riod dur ing the sector erase command sequence. The
Erase Suspend command is ignored if written during
the chip erase operation or Embedded Program
algorithm.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during
the sector erase ope ration, the device requires a typ i-
cal of 5 µs (maximum of 20 µs) to suspend the erase
operation. However, when the Erase Suspend com-
mand is written during the sector erase time-out, the
device immediately terminates the time-out period and
suspends the erase oper ation.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the
device enters the erase-suspend-read mode. The sys-
tem can read data from or program data to any sector
not selected for erasure. (The device “erase sus-
pends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Reading at
any address within erase-suspended sectors pro-
duces status information on DQ7–DQ0. The system
can use DQ7, or DQ6 and DQ2 together, to determ ine
if a sector i s actively erasing or is eras e-suspended.
Refer to th e Write Operation Status section for infor-
mation on these status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is com-
plete, the device returns to the erase-suspend-read
mode. The system can deter mine the status of the
program operation using the DQ7 or DQ6 status bits,
just as in the standard word program operation.
Refer t o the Write Operation Status section for more
information.
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also
issue the autoselect command sequence. Refer to the
Autoselect Mode and Autoselect Command Sequence
sections for details.
To resume the sector erase operation, the system
must write the Erase Resume command. Further
writes of the Resume command are ignored. Another
Erase Suspend command can be written after the chip
has resumed erasing.
Note: During an erase operation, this flash device per-
forms multiple inter nal operations w hich are invisible
to the syst em. When an eras e oper ation is susp ended,
any of the inter nal op erations that were n ot fully com-
pleted must be restarted. As such, if this flash device
is continually issued suspend/resume commands in
rapid succession, erase progress will be impeded as a
function of the number of suspends. The result will be
a longer cumulative erase time than without suspends.
Note that the additional suspends do not affect device
reliability or future performance. In most systems rapid
erase/suspend activity occurs only briefly. In such
cases, erase performance will not be significantly im-
pacted.

WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The de vice pro vides se ver al bits to det ermine the status of a
program o r erase operati on : DQ 2, D Q 3 , D Q5, D Q6, and
DQ7. Table 12 and the following subsect i ons de scribe the
function of these bits. DQ7 and DQ6 each off er a method f or
determining whether a progr am or erase operation is com-
plete or in progress. The device al s o provides a ha r d-
ware-based output signal, RY/BY#, to determine
whether an Em bedded Program or Erase operation is
in progress or has been completed.
DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system
whe t he r an Embe dd ed Pr ogram o r Erase algo rithm i s i n
progress or com pleted , or whe ther the device is in Erase
Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the
final WE# pulse in the c ommand sequence .
During the Embedded Program algorithm, th e device out-
puts on DQ7 the compleme nt of the datum pro g r ammed 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 s ystem must provide the program address to
read v alid stat us inf ormation on DQ7. If a prog ram addres s
falls within a protected sector, Data# Polling on DQ7 is ac-
tive for approximately 1 µs, then the device returns to the
read mode .
Dur ing th e Embe dded Eras e alg orithm , Data# Po lling
produc es a “0” on DQ 7. When the Embed ded Erase
algorithm is complete, or if the de vice enters the Erase
Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a “1” on DQ7.
The system must provide an address within any of the
secto rs select ed for erasur e to read valid s tatus infor-
mation on DQ7.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all
sectors selected for erasing are protected, Data# Poll-
ing on DQ7 is active f or appro ximately 100 µs, then the
device returns to the read mode. If not all selected
sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm
erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the se-
lected se ctors tha t are protec ted. However, if the sys-
tem reads DQ7 at an address within a protected
sector, the status may not be valid.
Just prior to the completion of an Embedded Program
or Erase operation, DQ7 may change asynchronously
with DQ0–DQ6 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted
low. That is, the device may change from providing
status information to valid data on DQ7. Depending on
when the system samples the DQ7 out put, it may read
the status or valid data. Even if the device has c om-
pleted the program or erase ope ration and DQ7 h as
valid data, the data outputs on DQ0– DQ6 may be still
invalid. Valid data on DQ0–DQ7 will appear on suc-
cessiv e read cycles.

RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin
which indicates whether an Em bedded Algorith m 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
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 in the read mode, the standby
mode, or in the erase-suspend -read mode. Table 12
sho ws the outputs for RY/BY#.
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, succe ssive read cycles to any address caus e
DQ6 to toggle. The system may use either OE# or
CE# to control the read c ycles. When the operation is
complete, DQ6 stops toggling.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors
selected for eras ing ar e pr ot ect ed, DQ 6 tog gle s 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 sector s, and ignores the se-
lected sec tors tha t are protec ted.
The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to determine
whether a sector is actively er asing or is erase-suspended.
When the device is activ ely eras ing (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. Alterna-
tively, the system can use DQ7 (see the subsection on
DQ7: Data# Polling ).
If a program address falls with in a protected sect or,
DQ6 toggle s for approximately 1 µs after the p rogram
command sequence is written, then returns to reading
array data.
DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program
mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Pro-
gram algorithm is complete.
Table 12 shows the outputs for Tog gle Bit I on DQ6 .
Figure 9 shows the toggle bit algorithm. Figure 21 in
the “AC Characteristics” section shows the toggle bit
timing diagrams. Figure 22 shows the differences be-
tween DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the
subsection on DQ2: Toggle Bit II.

Figure 9. Toggle Bit Algorithm
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 Er ase algo rithm is in progr ess),
or whether that s ector is erase-sus pended. Toggle Bit
II is valid afte r the risi ng edge of the final WE# pu lse in
the command sequence.
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
whet her the sector i s actively erasing or is erase-sus -
pended. D Q6, by comparis on, indicates whe ther the
device is actively erasing, or is in E rase Suspend, but
canno t distin guish whic h sectors are sel ected for era-
sure. Thus, both status bits are required for sector and
mode information. Refer to Table 12 to compare out-
puts for DQ2 and DQ6.
Figure 9 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart
form , and the section “DQ2: Toggle Bit II” explains the
algorithm. See also the RY/BY#: Ready/Busy# sub-
section. Figure 21 sho ws t he togg le bit timing diag r am.
Figure 22 shows the differences between DQ2 and
DQ6 in graphical form.
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 9 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 an d store the value of the tog-
gle bit after the first read. After the second re ad, 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.
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system
deter mines that the toggle bi t is still tog gling, the sys-
tem also should note whether the v alue of DQ5 is high
(see the section on DQ5). If it is, the system should
then de termine again whether the toggle bit is tog-
gling, since the toggle bit may have stopped toggling
just as DQ5 went high. If the toggle bit is no longer
toggling, the device has successfully completed the
program or erase oper ation . If it is still toggling, the de-
vice did not completed the operation successfully, and
the system must write the reset command to return to
reading array data.
The remaining scenario is that the system initially de-
termines that the toggle bit is toggling and DQ5 has
not gone high. The system may continue to monitor
the toggle bit and DQ5 through successive read cy-
cles, deter mining the status as describ ed in the previ-
ous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to perfor m

other system tasks. In this case, the system m ust start
at the beginning of the algorithm when it returns to de-
termine the status of the operation (top of Figure 9).
DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ5 indicates whether the program, erase, or
write-to-buffer time has exceeded a specified internal
pulse coun t limit . Under these condi tions DQ5 produces a
“1,” indicating that the program or erase cycle was not suc-
cessfully completed.
The de vice may output a “1” on DQ5 if the system tries
to program a “1” to a location that wa s previously pro-
grammed to “0.Only an erase operation can
change a “0” back to a “1. Under this condition, the
device halts the operation, and w hen the timing lim it
has been exceeded, DQ5 produces a “1.
In all these cases, the system must write the reset
command to return the device to the reading the array
(or to erase-suspend-read if the device was previously
in the erase-suspend-prog ram mode).
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the
system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not
erasure has begun. (The sector erase timer does not
apply to the chip erase command.) If additional
sectors are selected for erasure, the entire time-out
also applies af ter each a dditional sector eras e com-
mand. When the time-out period is complete, DQ3
switches from a “0” to a “1.” If the time between addi-
tional sector er ase commands from the system can be
assumed to be less than 50 µs, the system need not
monitor DQ3. See also the Sector Erase Command
Sequence section.
After the sector erase command is written, the system
should read the status of DQ7 (D ata# Polling) or DQ 6
(Toggle Bit I) to ensure that the device has accepted
the command sequence , and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is
“1,” the Embedded Erase algorithm has begun; all fur-
ther commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored
until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,” the
device will accept a dditional secto r erase co mmands.
To ensure the command has been accepted, the sys-
tem software should check the status of DQ3 prior to
and following each subsequent sector erase com-
mand. If D Q3 is high on the seco nd status c heck, the
last command might not have been accepted.
Table 12 show s the status of DQ3 relative to the other
status bits.
DQ1: Write-to-Buffer Abort
DQ1 indicates whether a Write-to-Buffer operation
was aborted. Under these conditions DQ1 produces a
“1”. The system must issue the
Write-to-Buff er-Abort-Reset command sequence to re-
turn the device to reading array data. See Write Buffer
Table 12. W rite Operation Status
Notes:
1. DQ5 switches to ‘1’ when an Embedded Program, Embedded Erase, or Write-to-Buffer operation has exceeded the
maximum timing limits. Refer to the section on DQ5 for more information.
2. DQ7 and DQ2 require a v ali d address when r eading s tatus information. Refer to the appropriate subse ction f o r further details.
3. The Data# P oll ing a lgorithm shoul d be use d to moni tor the l ast l oaded write-buffer addr ess loc ation.
