SUPPLEMENT
Am29BL802C
Data Sheet Supplement for PROM Programmer Manufacturers
This supplement is for use with the Am29BL802C data
sheet, publication number 22371. This document
describes the sector protection and sector unprotection
functions intended for programming equipment. The
Am29BL802C device also offers in-system sector protection and unprotection. Refer to the data sheet for
more information.
Sector Protection
The Am29BL802C features hardware sector protection.
This feature will disable both program and erase operations in any number of available sectors. The sector
protect feature is enabled using programming equipment at the user’s site. Devices are shipped with all
sectors unprotected. Alternatively, AMD may program
and protect sectors in the factory prior to shipping the
device (AMD’s ExpressFlash™ Service).
To activate the sector protect mode, apply VCC = 3.3 V ±
10%; the programming equipment must then force V ID
on address pin A9 and control pin OE#, (VID = 12 V ±
0.5 V), VIL on CE#, A6, and A0, VIH on A1 and RESET#.
The sector addresses on A18–A12 should be set to the
sector to be protected. Programming of the protection
circuitry begins on the falling edge of the WE# pulse and
is terminated with the rising edge of the same. Sector
addresses must be held constant during the WE# pulse.
Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 for sector protection algorithm and waveforms. Remove VID prior to removing
VCC.
To verify programming of the protection circuitry, the
programming equipment must force VID on address pin
A9 with CE# and OE# at VIL and WE# at VIH. Scanning
the sector addresses on A18–A12 while (A6, A1, A0) =
(VIL, VIH, VIL) will produce 01h at device outputs (DQ0–
DQ7) for a protected sector. In this mode, the lower
order addresses, except for A0, A1, and A6 are don’t
care. Address locations with A1 = VIL are reserved for
Autoselect manufacturer and device codes.
Sector Unprotection
Sectors previously protected may subsequently be
unprotected to accommodate code changes, using the
Sector Unprotect Mode. Prior to initiating a code change
in any previously protected sector all sectors must be
placed into the Sector Protect Mode using the Sector
Protection Algorithm.
To activate sector unprotection, apply V CC = 3.3 V ±
10%; the programming equipment must then force VID
on address pin A9 and control pin OE# (VID = 12 V ± 0.5
V), VIL on CE# and A0, VIH on RESET#, A1, and A6.
The sector addresses on A18–A12 should be set to the
sector to be unprotected. The unprotection mechanism
begins on the falling edge of the WE# pulse and is terminated with the rising edge of the same. Refer to
Figure 3 and Figure 4 for sector unprotection algorithm
and waveforms. Remove VID prior to removing VCC.
Verification of sector unprotection is similar to that for
sector protection. The programming equipment must
force VID on address pin A9 with CE# and OE# at VIL
and WE# at V IH. Scanning the sector addresses on
A18–A12 while (A6, A1, A0) = (V IH , V IH , V IL ) will
produce 00h at device outputs (DQ0–DQ7) for an
unprotected sector. In this mode, the lower order
addresses, except for A0, A1, and A6, are don’t care.
Address locations with A1 = V IL are reserved for
Autoselect manufacturer and device codes.
Note that the temporary sector unprotect procedure can
be found in the Am29BL802C data sheet.
