Device Operations
This section describes the read, program, erase, simultaneous read/write operations, handshaking, and reset features of the Flash devices.
Operations are initiated by writing specific commands or a sequence with specific address and
data patterns into the command registers (see Tables 12.1 and 12.2). The command register
itself does not occupy any addressable memory location; rather, it is composed of latches that
store the commands, along with the address and data information needed to execute the
command. The contents of the register serve as input to the internal state machine and the
state machine outputs dictate the function of the device. Writing incorrect address and data
values or writing them in an improper sequence may place the device in an unknown state,
in which case the system must write the reset command to return the device to the reading
array data mode.
7.1 Device Operation Table
The device must be setup appropriately for each operation. Table 7.4 describes the required
state of each control pin for any particular operation.

7.2 Asynchronous Read
All memories require access time to output array data. In an asynchronous read operation,
data is read from one memory location at a time. Addresses are presented to the device in
random order, and the propagation delay through the device causes the data on its outputs
to arrive asynchronously with the address on its inputs.
The device defaults to reading array data asynchronously after device power-up or hardware
reset. To read data from the memory array, the system must first assert a valid address on
Amax–A0, while driving AVD# and CE# to VIL. WE# should remain at VIH. The rising edge of
AVD# latches the address and data will appear on DQ15–DQ0 after address access time
(tACC), which is equal to the delay from stable addresses to valid output data. The chip enable

P r e l i m i n a r y
access time (tCE) is the delay from the stable CE# to valid data at the outputs. The output
enable access time (tOE) is the delay from the falling edge of OE# to valid data at the output.
7.3 Synchronous (Burst) Read Mode &
Configuration Register
When a series of adjacent addresses needs to be read from the device (in order from lowest
to highest address), the synchronous (or burst read) mode can be used to significantly reduce
the overall time needed for the device to output array data. After an initial access time required for the data from the first address location, subsequent data is output synchronized to
a clock input provided by the system.
The device offers both continuous and linear methods of burst read operation, which are discussed in subsections 7.3.1 and 7.3.2, and 7.3.3.
Since the device defaults to asynchronous read mode after power-up or a hardware reset, the
configuration register must be set to enable the burst read mode. Other Configuration Register settings include the number of wait states to insert before the initial word (tIACC) of each
burst access, the burst mode in which to operate, and when RDY will indicate data is ready
to be read. Prior to entering the burst mode, the system should first determine the configuration register settings (and read the current register settings if desired via the Read
Configuration Register command sequence), and then write the configuration register command sequence. See Section 7.3.4, Configuration Register, and Table 12.1, Memory Array
Commands for further details.

The device outputs the initial word subject to the following operational conditions:
„ tIACC specification: the time from the rising edge of the first clock cycle after addresses
are latched to valid data on the device outputs.
„ configuration register setting CR13–CR11: the total number of clock cycles (wait states)
that occur before valid data appears on the device outputs. The effect is that tIACC is
lengthened.

S29WSxxxN_00_F0 October 29, 2004
P r e l i m i n a r y
The device outputs subsequent words tBACC after the active edge of each successive clock cycle, which also increments the internal address counter. The device outputs burst data at this
rate subject to the following operational conditions:
„ starting address: whether the address is divisible by four (where A[1:0] is 00). A divisible-by-four address incurs the least number of additional wait states that occur after the
initial word. The number of additional wait states required increases for burst operations
in which the starting address is one, two, or three locations above the divisible-by-four
address (i.e., where A[1:0] is 01, 10, or 11).
„ boundary crossing: a physical aspect of the device that exists every 128 words, starting
at address 00007Fh. Higher operational speeds require one additional wait state. Refer to
Tables 7.10–7.13 for details. Figure 11.20 shows the effects of boundary crossings at
higher frequencies.
„ clock frequency: the speed at which the device is expected to burst data. Higher speeds
require additional wait states after the initial word for proper operation. Tables 7.7–7.13
show the effects of frequency on burst operation.
In all cases, with or without latency, the RDY output indicates when the next data is available
to be read.
Table 7.5 shows the latency that occurs in the S29WS256N device when (x indicates the recommended number of wait states for various operating frequencies, as shown in Table 7.15,
configuration register bits CR13-CR11).
Tables 7.7–7.9 show the effects of various combinations of the starting address, operating
frequency, and wait state setting (configuration register bits CR13–CR11) for the S29WS128N
and S29WS064N devices. Tables 7.10–7.13 includes the wait state that occurs when crossing
the internal boundary.

7.3.1 Continuous Burst Read Mode
In the continuous burst read mode, the device outputs sequential burst data from the starting
address given and then wrap around to address 000000h when it reaches the highest addressable memory location. The burst read mode will continue until the system drives CE# high,
RESET# low, or AVD# low in conjunction with a new address.
If the address being read crosses a 128-word line boundary and the subsequent word line is
not programming or erasing, additional latency cycles are required as shown in Tables 7.10–
7.13.
If the address crosses a bank boundary while the subsequent bank is programming or erasing, the device will provide read status information and the clock will be ignored. Upon
completion of status read or program or erase operation, the host can restart a burst read
operation using a new address and AVD# pulse.

7.3.2
8-, 16-, 32-Word Linear Burst Read with Wrap Around
In a linear burst read operation, a fixed number of words (8, 16, or 32 words) are read from
consecutive addresses that are determined by the group within which the starting address
falls. The groups are sized according to the number of words read in a single burst sequence
for a given mode (see Table 7.14).
For example, if the starting address in the 8-word mode is 3Ch, the address range to be read
would be 38-3Fh, and the burst sequence would be 3C-3D-3E-3F-38-39-3A-3Bh. Thus, the
device outputs all words in that burst address group until all word are read, regardless of
where the starting address occurs in the address group, and then terminates the burst read.
In a similar fashion, the 16-word and 32-word Linear Wrap modes begin their burst sequence
on the starting address written to the device, then wrap back to the first address in the selected address group.
Note that in this mode the address pointer does not cross the boundary that occurs every 128
words; thus, no wait states are inserted (except during the initial access).
Table 7.14.

8-, 16-, 32-Word Linear Burst without Wrap Around
If wrap around is not enabled for linear burst read operations, the 8-word, 16-word, or 32word burst will execute up to the maximum memory address of the selected number of words.
The burst will stop after 8, 16, or 32 addresses and will not wrap around to the first address
of the selected group.
For example, if the starting address in the 8- word mode is 3Ch, the address range to be read
would be 39-40h, and the burst sequence would be 3C-3D-3E-3F-40-41-42-43h if wrap
around is not enabled. The next address to be read will require a new address and AVD#
pulse. Note that in this burst read mode, the address pointer may cross the boundary that
occurs every 128 words.
7.3.4 Configuration Register
The configuration register sets various operational features, most of which are associated
with burst mode. Upon power-up or hardware reset, the device defaults to the asynchronous
read mode, and the configuration register settings are in their default state. The host system
should determine the proper settings for the entire configuration register, and then execute
the Set Configuration Register command sequence, before attempting burst operations. The
configuration register is not reset after deasserting CE#. The Configuration Register can also
be read using a command sequence (see Table 12.1). The following list describes the register
settings.

the configuration register, a software reset command is required to set the device into the
correct state.
7.4 Autoselect
The Autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device identification, and sector protection
verification, through identifier codes output from the internal register (separate from the
memory array) on DQ15-DQ0. This mode is primarily intended for programming equipment
to automatically match a device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algorithm. The Autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system. When verifying sector
protection, the sector address must appear on the appropriate highest order address bits (see
Tables 7.17 to 7.16). The remaining address bits are don't care. When all necessary bits have
been set as required, the programming equipment may then read the corresponding identifier
code on DQ15-DQ0. The Autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system through the command register. Note that if a Bank Address (BA) on the four uppermost address bits is
asserted during the third write cycle of the Autoselect command, the host system can read
Autoselect data from that bank and then immediately read array data from the other bank,
without exiting the Autoselect mode.

7.5 Program/Erase Operations
These devices are capable of several modes of programming and or erase operations which
are described in details during the following sections. However, prior to any programming and
or erase operation, devices must be setup appropriately as outlined in Table 6.4.
During a synchronous write operation, to write a command or command sequence (which includes programming data to the device and erasing sectors of memory), the system must
drive AVD# and CE# to VIL, and OE# to VIH when providing an address to the device, and
drive WE# and CE# to VIL, and OE# to VIH when writing commands or data.
During an asynchronous write operation, the system must drive CE# and WE# to VIL and OE#
to VIH when providing an address, command, and data. Addresses are latched on the last falling edge of WE# or CE#, while data is latched on the 1st rising edge of WE# or CE#.
Note the following:
„ When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the device then returns to the read
mode.
„ The system can determine the status of the program operation by using DQ7 or DQ6.
Refer to the Write Operation Status section for information on these status bits.
„ A “0” cannot be programmed back to a “1.” Attempting to do so will cause the device to
set DQ5 = 1 (halting any further operation and requiring a reset command). A succeeding
read will show that the data is still “0.”
„ Only erase operations can convert a “0” to a “1.”
„ Any commands written to the device during the Embedded Program Algorithm are ignored except the Program Suspend command.
„ SecSi Sector, Autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a program operation is
in progress.
„ A hardware reset immediately terminates the program operation and the program command sequence should be reinitiated once the device has returned to the read mode, to
ensure data integrity.
„ Programming is allowed in any sequence and across sector boundaries for single word
programming operation.
„ Programming to the same word address multiple times without intervening erases is limited. For such application requirements, please contact your local Spansion representative.
7.5.1. Single Word Programming
Single word programming mode is the simplest method of programming. In this mode, four
Flash command write cycles are used to program an individual Flash address. The data for
this programming operation could be 8-, 16- or 32-bits wide. While this method is supported
by all Spansion devices, in general it is not recommended for devices that support Write
Buffer Programming. See Table 12.1 for the required bus cycles and Figure 7.19 for the
flowchart.
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 program operation by using DQ7 or DQ6. Refer to the Write Operation Status section for
information on these status bits.
„ During programming, any command (except the Suspend Program command) is ignored.
„ The SecSi Sector, Autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a program operation is in progress.

7.5.2 Write Buffer Programming
Write Buffer Programming allows the system to write a maximum of 32 words in one programming operation. This results in a faster effective word programming time than the
standard “word” programming algorithms. The Write Buffer Programming command sequence is initiated 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 programming will occur. At this point, the system writes the number of “word locations minus 1” that
will be loaded into the page buffer at the Sector Address in which programming will occur.
This tells the device how many write buffer addresses will be loaded with data and therefore
when to expect the “Program Buffer to Flash” confirm command. The number of locations to
program cannot exceed the size of the write buffer or the operation will abort. (Number
loaded = the number of locations to program minus 1. For example, if the system will program 6 address locations, then 05h should be written to the device.)
The system then writes the starting address/data combination. This starting address is the
first address/data pair to be programmed, and selects the “write-buffer-page” address. All
subsequent address/data pairs must fall within the elected-write-buffer-page.
The “write-buffer-page” is selected by using the addresses AMAX - A5.
The “write-buffer-page” addresses must be the same for all address/data pairs loaded into
the write buffer. (This means Write Buffer Programming cannot be performed across multiple
“write-buffer-pages.” This also means that Write Buffer Programming cannot be performed
across multiple sectors. If the system attempts to load programming data outside of the selected “write-buffer-page”, the operation will ABORT.)
After writing the Starting Address/Data pair, the system then writes the remaining address/
data pairs into the write buffer.
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. Also, the last data loaded at a location before the “Program Buffer to Flash” confirm command will be programmed into the
30
S29WSxxxN_00_F0 October 29, 2004
P r e l i m i n a r y
device. It is the software's responsibility to comprehend ramifications of loading a write-buffer
location more than once. The counter decrements for each data load operation, NOT for each
unique write-buffer-address location. Once the specified number of write buffer locations
have been loaded, the system must then write the “Program Buffer to Flash” command at the
Sector Address. Any other address/data write combinations will abort the Write Buffer Programming operation. The device will then “go busy.” The Data Bar polling techniques should
be used while monitoring the last address location loaded into the write buffer. This eliminates
the need to store an address in memory because the system can load the last address location, issue the program confirm command at the last loaded address location, and then data
bar poll at that same address. DQ7, DQ6, DQ5, DQ2, and DQ1 should be monitored to determine the device status during Write Buffer Programming.
The write-buffer “embedded” programming operation can be suspended using the standard
suspend/resume commands. Upon successful completion of the Write Buffer Programming
operation, the device will return to READ mode.
The Write Buffer Programming Sequence is ABORTED under any of the following conditions:
„ 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-BufferLoad command.
„ Write an Address/Data pair to a different write-buffer-page than the one selected by the
“Starting Address” during the “write buffer data loading” stage of the operation.
„ Write data other than the “Confirm Command” after the specified number of “data load”
cycles.
The ABORT condition is indicated by DQ1 = 1, DQ7 = DATA# (for the “last address location
loaded”), DQ6 = TOGGLE, DQ5 = 0. This indicates that the Write Buffer Programming Operation was ABORTED. A “Write-to-Buffer-Abort reset” command sequence is required when
using the write buffer Programming features in Unlock Bypass mode. Note that the SecSITM
sector, autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a program operation is in progress.
Write buffer programming is allowed in any sequence of memory (or address) locations.
These flash devices are capable of handling multiple write buffer programming operations on
the same write buffer address range without intervening erases. However, programming the
same word address multiple times without intervening erases requires a modified programming method. Please contact your local SpansionTM representative for details.
Use of the write buffer is strongly recommended for programming when multiple words are
to be programmed. Write buffer programming is approximately eight times faster than programming one word at a time.

7.5.3 Sector Erase
The sector erase function erases one or more sectors in the memory array. (See Table 12.1,
Memory Array Commands; and Figure 7.24, Sector Erase Operation.) The device does not
require the system to preprogram 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 required to provide any controls or timings during these operations.
After the command sequence is written, a sector erase time-out of no less than tSEA 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

P r e l i m i n a r y
sectors may be from one sector to all sectors. The time between these additional cycles must
be less than tSEA. Any sector erase address and command following the exceeded time-out
(tSEA) may or may not be accepted. Any command other than Sector Erase or Erase Suspend
during the time-out period resets that bank to the read mode. The system can monitor DQ3
to determine if the sector erase timer has timed out (See the “DQ3: Sector Erase Timer” section.) The time-out begins from the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command
sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the bank returns to reading array data and
addresses are no longer latched. Note that while the Embedded Erase operation is in
progress, the system can read data from the non-erasing banks. The system can determine
the status of the erase operation by reading DQ7 or DQ6/DQ2 in the erasing bank. Refer to
“Write Operation Status” for information on these status bits.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, 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 that bank has returned to reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
Figure 7.24 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to the “Erase/Program Operations” section for parameters and timing diagrams.

7.5.4 Chip Erase Command Sequence
Chip erase is a six-bus cycle operation as indicated by Table 12.1. These commands invoke
the Embedded Erase algorithm, which does not require the system to preprogram prior to
erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm automatically preprograms and verifies the entire
memory for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. The system is not required to
provide any controls or timings during these operations. The “Command Definition” section
in the appendix shows the address and data requirements for the chip erase command
sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, that bank returns to the read mode and
addresses are no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the erase operation
by using DQ7 or DQ6/DQ2. Refer to “Write Operation Status” for information on these status
bits.
Any commands written during the chip erase operation are ignored. However, note that a
hardware reset immediately terminates the erase operation. If that occurs, the chip erase
command sequence should be reinitiated once that bank has returned to reading array data,
to ensure data integrity.

7.5.5 Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands
The Erase Suspend command allows the system to interrupt a sector erase operation and
then read data from, or program data to, any sector not selected for erasure. The bank address is required when writing this command. This command is valid only during the sector
erase operation, including the minimum tSEA time-out period during the sector erase command sequence. The Erase Suspend command is ignored if written during the chip erase
operation.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during the sector erase operation, the device
requires a maximum of tESL (erase suspend latency) to suspend the erase operation. How-
October 29, 2004 S29WSxxxN_00_F0
37
P r e l i m i n a r y
ever, when the Erase Suspend command is written during the sector erase time-out, the
device immediately terminates the time-out period and suspends the erase operation.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the bank enters the erase-suspend-read
mode. The system can read data from or program data to any sector not selected for erasure.
(The device “erase suspends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Reading at any address within
erase-suspended 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 Table 7.35 for information on these status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete, the bank returns to the erase-suspend-read mode. The system can determine the status of the program operation using the
DQ7 or DQ6 status bits, just as in the standard program operation.
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also issue the Autoselect command sequence. Refer to the “Write Buffer Programming Operation” section and the “Autoselect
Command Sequence” section for details.
To resume the sector erase operation, the system must write the Erase Resume command.
The bank address of the erase-suspended bank is required when writing this command. Further writes of the Resume command are ignored. Another Erase Suspend command can be
written after the chip has resumed erasing.

7.5.6 Program Suspend/Program Resume Commands
The Program Suspend command allows the system to interrupt an embedded programming
operation or a “Write to Buffer” programming operation so that data can read from any nonsuspended sector. When the Program Suspend command is written during a programming
process, the device halts the programming operation within tPSL (program suspend latency)
38
S29WSxxxN_00_F0 October 29, 2004
P r e l i m i n a r y
and updates the status bits. Addresses are “don't-cares” when writing the Program Suspend
command.
After the programming operation has been suspended, the system can read array data from
any non-suspended sector. The Program Suspend command may also be issued during a programming operation while an erase is suspended. In this case, data may be read from any
addresses not in Erase Suspend or Program Suspend. If a read is needed from the SecSi Sector 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 Program
Suspend mode. The device allows reading Autoselect codes in the suspended sectors, since
the codes are not stored in the memory array. When the device exits the Autoselect mode,
the device reverts to 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 reverts to programming. The system can determine the status of the program operation using the DQ7 or DQ6 status bits, just
as in the standard program operation. See “Write Operation Status” for more information.
The system must write the Program Resume command (address bits are “don't care”) to exit
the Program Suspend mode and continue the programming operation. Further writes of the
Program Resume command are ignored. Another Program Suspend command can be written
after the device has resumed programming.

7.5.7 Accelerated Program/Chip Erase
Accelerated single word programming, write buffer programming, sector erase, and chip
erase operations are enabled through the ACC function. This method is faster than the standard chip program and erase command sequences.
October 29, 2004 S29WSxxxN_00_F0
39
P r e l i m i n a r y
The accelerated chip program and erase functions must not be used more than 10
times per sector. In addition, accelerated chip program and erase should be performed at
room temperature (25°C ±10°C).
If the system asserts VHH on this input, the device automatically enters the aforementioned
Unlock Bypass mode and uses the higher voltage on the input to reduce the time required for
program and erase operations. The system can then use the Write Buffer Load command sequence provided by the Unlock Bypass mode. Note that if a “Write-to-Buffer-Abort Reset” is
required while in Unlock Bypass mode, the full 3-cycle RESET command sequence must be
used to reset the device. Removing VHH from the ACC input, upon completion of the embedded program or erase operation, returns the device to normal operation.
„ Sectors must be unlocked prior to raising ACC to VHH.
„ The ACC pin must not be at VHH for operations other than accelerated programming and
accelerated chip erase, or device damage may result.
„ The ACC pin must not be left floating or unconnected; inconsistent behavior of the device
may result.
„ tACC locks all sector if set to VIL; tACC should be set to VIH for all other conditions.
7.5.8 Unlock Bypass
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facilitate faster word programming. Once the
device enters the Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required to program data,
instead of the normal four cycles.
This mode dispenses with the initial two unlock cycles required in the standard program command sequence, resulting in faster total programming time. The “Command Definition
Summary” section shows the requirements for the unlock bypass command sequences.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Read, Unlock Bypass Program and Unlock Bypass
Reset commands are valid. To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system must issue the twocycle unlock bypass reset command sequence. The first cycle must contain the bank address
and the data 90h. The second cycle need only contain the data 00h. The bank then returns
to the read mode.
Software Functions and Sample Code
The following are C source code examples of using the unlock bypass entry, program, and exit
functions. Refer to the Spansion Low Level Driver User’s Guide (available soon on
www.amd.com and www.fujitsu.com) for general information on Spansion Flash memory
software development guidelines.

7.5.9 Write Operation Status
The device provides several bits to determine the status of a program or erase operation. The
following subsections describe the function of DQ1, DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, and DQ7.
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 bank is in
Erase Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command sequence. Note that the Data# Polling is valid only for the last word being programmed
in the write-buffer-page during Write Buffer Programming. Reading Data# Polling status on
any word other than the last word to be programmed in the write-buffer-page will return false
status information.
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 Suspend. When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the device outputs the datum
programmed to DQ7. The system must provide the program address to read valid status information on DQ7. If a program address falls within a protected sector, Data# polling on DQ7
is active for approximately tPSP, then that bank returns to the read mode.
During the Embedded Erase Algorithm, Data# polling produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, or if the bank enters the Erase Suspend mode, Data#
Polling produces a “1” on DQ7. The system must provide an address within any of the sectors
selected for erasure to read valid status information on DQ7.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors selected for erasing are protected,
Data# Polling on DQ7 is active for approximately tASP, then the bank returns to the read
mode. If not all selected sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the selected sectors that are protected. However, if the system
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 DQ6-DQ0 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
October 29, 2004 S29WSxxxN_00_F0
41
P r e l i m i n a r y
system samples the DQ7 output, it may read the status or valid data. Even if the device has
completed the program or erase operation and DQ7 has valid data, the data outputs on DQ6DQ0 may be still invalid. Valid data on DQ7-D00 will appear on successive read cycles.
See the following for more information: Table 7.35, Write Operation Status, shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7. Figure 7.33, Write Operation Status Flowchart, shows the

Write Operation Status Flowchart
43
P r e l i m i n a r y
DQ6: Toggle Bit I . Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Embedded Program or Erase
algorithm is in progress or complete, or whether the device has entered the Erase Suspend
mode. Toggle Bit I may be read at any address in the same bank, 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 operation, successive read cycles to any address cause DQ6 to toggle. When the operation is complete, DQ6 stops toggling.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors selected for erasing are protected,
DQ6 toggles for approximately tASP [all sectors protected toggle time], then returns to reading array data. If not all selected sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm erases
the unprotected sectors, and ignores the selected sectors that are 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 actively erasing (that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm 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 erasing or erase-suspended. Alternatively, the system can use DQ7 (see the subsection on DQ7:
Data# Polling).
If a program address falls within a protected sector, DQ6 toggles for approximately tPAP after
the program 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 Program Algorithm is complete.
See the following for additional information: Figure 7.33, Write Operation Status Flowchart;
Figure 11.17, Toggle Bit Timings (During Embedded Algorithm), and Tables 7.34 and 7.35.
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 requires either OE# or CE# to be de-asserted and reasserted to show the
change in state.
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 sector is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit II is valid after the rising edge of the final
WE# pulse in the command sequence. DQ2 toggles when the system reads at addresses
within those sectors that have been selected for erasure. But DQ2 cannot distinguish whether
the sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended. DQ6, by comparison, indicates whether
the device is actively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but cannot distinguish which sectors are
selected for erasure. Thus, both status bits are required for sector and mode information.
Refer to Table 7.34 to compare outputs for DQ2 and DQ6. See the following for additional information: Figure 7.33, the “DQ6: Toggle Bit I” section, and Figures 11.16–11.19.

Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2. Whenever the system initially begins reading toggle bit sta-
tus, it must read DQ7–DQ0 at least twice in a row to determine whether a toggle bit is
toggling. Typically, the system would note and store the value of the toggle bit after the first
read. After the second read, the system would compare the new value of the toggle bit with
the first. If the toggle bit is not toggling, the device has completed the program or erases
operation. The system can read array data on DQ7–DQ0 on the following read cycle. 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 determine again whether the toggle bit is toggling, since the toggle
bit may have stopped toggling just as DQ5 went high. If the toggle bit is no longer toggling,
the device has successfully completed the program or erases operation. If it is still toggling,
the device did not complete 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
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 paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to perform other
system tasks. In this case, the system must start at the beginning of the algorithm when it
returns to determine the status of the operation. Refer to Figure 7.33 for more details.
DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits. DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has ex-
ceeded 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 system 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 has been exceeded, DQ5
produces a “1.”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 a bank was previously in the
erase-suspend-program mode).
DQ3: Sector Erase Timeout State Indicator. 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 after each additional sector erase
command. When the time-out period is complete, DQ3 switches from a “0” to a “1.” If the
time between additional sector erase commands from the system can be assumed to be less
than tSEA, the system need not monitor DQ3. See Sector Erase Command Sequence for more
details.

P r e l i m i n a r y
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 has accepted the command sequence,
and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is “1,” the Embedded Erase algorithm has begun; all further commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is
“0,” the device will accept additional sector erase commands. To ensure the command has
been accepted, the system software should check the status of DQ3 prior to and following
each sub-sequent sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the last
command might not have been accepted. Table 7.35 shows 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 Buffer Abort
Reset command sequence to return the device to reading array data. See Write Buffer Programming Operation for more details.

7.6 Simultaneous Read/Write
The simultaneous read/write feature allows the host system to read data from one bank of
memory while programming or erasing another bank of memory. An erase operation may also
be suspended to read from or program another location within the same bank (except the
sector being erased). Figure 11.23, Back-to-Back Read/Write Cycle Timings, shows how read
and write cycles may be initiated for simultaneous operation with zero latency. Refer to the
DC Characteristics (CMOS Compatible) table for read-while-program and read-while-erase
current specification.
7.7 Writing Commands/Command Sequences
When the device is configured for Asynchronous read, only Asynchronous write operations are
allowed, and CLK is ignored. When in the Synchronous read mode configuration, the device
is able to perform both Asynchronous and Synchronous write operations. CLK and AVD# induced address latches are supported in the Synchronous programming mode. During a
synchronous write operation, to write a command or command sequence (which includes programming data to the device and erasing sectors of memory), the system must drive AVD#
and CE# to VIL, and OE# to VIH when providing an address to the device, and drive WE# and
CE# to VIL, and OE# to VIH when writing commands or data. During an asynchronous write
operation, the system must drive CE# and WE# to VIL and OE# to VIH when providing an
address, command, and data. Addresses are latched on the last falling edge of WE# or CE#,
while data is latched on the 1st rising edge of WE# or CE#. An erase operation can erase one
sector, multiple sectors, or the entire device. Tables 6.1–6.3 indicate the address space that
each sector occupies. The device address space is divided into sixteen banks: Banks 1
through 14 contain only 64 Kword sectors, while Banks 0 and 15 contain both 16 Kword boot
sectors in addition to 64 Kword sectors. A “bank address” is the set of address bits required
to uniquely select a bank. Similarly, a “sector address” is the address bits required to uniquely
select a sector. ICC2 in “DC Characteristics” represents the active current specification for the
write mode. “AC Characteristics-Synchronous” and “AC Characteristics-Asynchronous” contain timing specification tables and timing diagrams for write operations.
7.8 Handshaking
The handshaking feature allows the host system to detect when data is ready to be read by
simply monitoring the RDY (Ready) pin, which is a dedicated output and controlled by CE#.
When the device is configured to operate in synchronous mode, and OE# is low (active), the
initial word of burst data becomes available after either the falling or rising edge of the RDY
pin (depending on the setting for bit 10 in the Configuration Register). It is recommended
that the host system set CR13–CR11 in the Configuration Register to the appropriate number
of wait states to ensure optimal burst mode operation (see Table 7.15, Configuration
Register).
Bit 8 in the Configuration Register allows the host to specify whether RDY is active at the same
time that data is ready, or one cycle before data is ready.

P r e l i m i n a r y
7.9 Hardware Reset
The RESET# input provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data.
When RESET# is driven low for at least a period of tRP, the device immediately terminates any
operation in progress, tristates all outputs, resets the configuration register, and ignores all
read/write commands for the duration of the RESET# pulse. The device also resets the internal state machine to reading array data.
To ensure data integrity the operation that was interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is ready to accept another command sequence.
When RESET# is held at VSS, the device draws CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is
held at VIL, but not at VSS, the standby current will be greater.
RESET# may be tied to the system reset circuitry which enables the system to read the bootup firmware from the Flash memory upon a system reset.
See Figures 11.5 and 11.12 for timing diagrams.
7.10 Software Reset
Software reset is part of the command set (see Table 12.1) that also returns the device to
array read mode and must be used for the following conditions:
1.
to exit Autoselect mode
2.
when DQ5 goes high during write status operation that indicates program or erase cycle
was not successfully completed
3.
exit sector lock/unlock operation.
4.
to return to erase-suspend-read mode if the device was previously in Erase Suspend
mode.
5.
after any aborted operations

The following are additional points to consider when using the reset command:
„ This command resets the banks to the read and address bits are ignored.
„ Reset commands are ignored once erasure has begun until the operation is complete.
„ Once programming begins, the device ignores reset commands until the operation is
complete
„ The reset command may be written between the cycles in a program command sequence
before programming begins (prior to the third cycle). This resets the bank to which the
system was writing to the read mode.

„ If the program command sequence is written to a bank that is in the Erase Suspend
mode, writing the reset command returns that bank to the erase-suspend-read mode.
„ The reset command may be also written during an Autoselect command sequence.
„ If a bank has entered the Autoselect mode while in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the
reset command returns that bank to the erase-suspend-read mode.
„ If DQ1 goes high during a Write Buffer Programming operation, the system must write
the "Write to Buffer Abort Reset" command sequence to RESET the device to reading
array data. The standard RESET command will not work during this condition.
„ To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system must issue a two-cycle unlock bypass reset
command sequence [see command table for details].

8.1 Lock Register
As shipped from the factory, all devices default to the persistent mode when power is applied,
and all sectors are unprotected, unless otherwise chosen through the DYB ordering option
(see Ordering Information). The device programmer or host system must then choose which
sector protection method to use. Programming (setting to “0”) any one of the following two
one-time programmable, non-volatile bits locks the part permanently in that mode:

For programming lock register bits refer to Table 12.2.
Notes
1. If the password mode is chosen, the password must be programmed before setting the corresponding lock register bit.
2. After the Lock Register Bits Command Set Entry command sequence is written, reads and
writes for Bank 0 are disabled, while reads from other banks are allowed until exiting this
mode.
3. If both lock bits are selected to be programmed (to zeros) at the same time, the operation
will abort.
4. Once the Password Mode Lock Bit is programmed, the Persistent Mode Lock Bit is permanently
disabled, and no changes to the protection scheme are allowed. Similarly, if the Persistent
Mode Lock Bit is programmed, the Password Mode is permanently disabled.
After selecting a sector protection method, each sector can operate in any of the following
three states:
1.
Constantly locked. The selected sectors are protected and can not be reprogrammed
unless PPB lock bit is cleared via a password, hardware reset, or power cycle.
2.
Dynamically locked. The selected sectors are protected and can be altered via software
commands.
3. Unlocked. The sectors are unprotected and can be erased and/or programmed.
These states are controlled by the bit types described in Sections 8.2–8.6.
8.2 Persistent Protection Bits
The Persistent Protection Bits are unique and nonvolatile for each sector and have the same
endurances as the Flash memory. Preprogramming and verification prior to erasure are handled by the device, and therefore do not require system monitoring.
Notes
1.
Each PPB is individually programmed and all are erased in parallel.
2.
Entry command disables reads and writes for the bank selected.
3.
Reads within that bank will return the PPB status for that sector.
4.
Reads from other banks are allowed while writes are not allowed.
October 29, 2004 S29WSxxxN_00_F0
51
P r e l i m i n a r y
5.
All Reads must be performed using the Asynchronous mode.
6.
The specific sector address (A23-A14 WS256N, A22-A14 WS128N, A21-A14 WS064N)
are written at the same time as the program command.
7.
If the PPB Lock Bit is set, the PPB Program or erase command will not execute and will
time-out without programming or erasing the PPB.
8.
There are no means for individually erasing a specific PPB and no specific sector address
is required for this operation.
9.
Exit command must be issued after the execution which resets the device to read mode
and re-enables reads and writes for Bank 0
10. The programming state of the PPB for a given sector can be verified by writing a PPB
Status Read Command to the device as described by the flow chart below.
8.3 Dynamic Protection Bits
Dynamic Protection Bits are volatile and unique for each sector and can be individually modified. DYBs only control the protection scheme for unprotected sectors that have their PPBs
cleared (erased to “1”). By issuing the DYB Set or Clear command sequences, the DYBs will
be set (programmed to “0”) or cleared (erased to “1”), thus placing each sector in the protected or unprotected state respectively. This feature allows software to easily protect sectors
against inadvertent changes yet does not prevent the easy removal of protection when
changes are needed.
Notes
1.
The DYBs can be set (programmed to “0”) or cleared (erased to “1”) as often as needed.
When the parts are first shipped, the PPBs are cleared (erased to “1”) and upon power up or
reset, the DYBs can be set or cleared depending upon the ordering option chosen.
2.
If the option to clear the DYBs after power up is chosen, (erased to “1”), then the sectors
may be modified depending upon the PPB state of that sector (see Table 8.2).
3.
The sectors would be in the protected state If the option to set the DYBs after power up
is chosen (programmed to “0”).
4.
It is possible to have sectors that are persistently locked with sectors that are left in the
dynamic state.
5.
The DYB Set or Clear commands for the dynamic sectors signify protected or unprotectedstate of the sectors respectively. However, if there is a need to change the status
of the persistently locked sectors, a few more steps are required. First, the PPB Lock Bit
must be cleared by either putting the device through a power-cycle, or hardware reset.
The PPBs can then be changed to reflect the desired settings. Setting the PPB Lock Bit
once again will lock the PPBs, and the device operates normally again.
6.
To achieve the best protection, it is recommended to execute the PPB Lock Bit Set command early in the boot code and protect the boot code by holding WP# = VIL. Note that
the PPB and DYB bits have the same function when ACC = VHH as they do when ACC
=VIH.
8.4 Persistent Protection Bit Lock Bit
The Persistent Protection Bit Lock Bit is a global volatile bit for all sectors. When set (programmed to “0”), this bit locks all PPB and when cleared (programmed to “1”), unlocks each
sector. There is only one PPB Lock Bit per device.
Notes
52
1.
No software command sequence unlocks this bit unless the device is in the password
protection mode; only a hardware reset or a power-up clears this bit.
2.
The PPB Lock Bit must be set (programmed to “0”) only after all PPBs are configured to
the desired settings.
S29WSxxxN_00_F0 October 29, 2004
P r e l i m i n a r y
8.5 Password Protection Method
The Password Protection Method allows an even higher level of security than the Persistent
Sector Protection Mode by requiring a 64 bit password for unlocking the device PPB Lock Bit.
In addition to this password requirement, after power up and reset, the PPB Lock Bit is set
“0” to maintain the password mode of operation. Successful execution of the Password Unlock
command by entering the entire password clears the PPB Lock Bit, allowing for sector PPBs
modifications.
Notes
1.
There is no special addressing order required for programming the password. Once the
Password is written and verified, the Password Mode Locking Bit must be set in order to
prevent access.
2.
The Password Program Command is only capable of programming “0”s. Programming a
“1” after a cell is programmed as a “0” results in a time-out with the cell as a “0”.
3.
The password is all “1”s when shipped from the factory.
4.
All 64-bit password combinations are valid as a password.
5.
There is no means to verify what the password is after it is set.
6.
The Password Mode Lock Bit, once set, prevents reading the 64-bit password on the
data bus and further password programming.
7.
The Password Mode Lock Bit is not erasable.
8.
The lower two address bits (A1–A0) are valid during the Password Read, Password Program, and Password Unlock.
9.
The exact password must be entered in order for the unlocking function to occur.
10. The Password Unlock command cannot be issued any faster than 1 µs at a time to prevent a hacker from running through all the 64-bit combinations in an attempt to
correctly match a password.
11. Approximately 1 µs is required for unlocking the device after the valid 64-bit password
is given to the device.
12. Password verification is only allowed during the password programming operation.
13. All further commands to the password region are disabled and all operations are
ignored.
14. If the password is lost after setting the Password Mode Lock Bit, there is no way to clear
the PPB Lock Bit.
15. Entry command sequence must be issued prior to any of any operation and it disables
reads and writes for Bank 0. Reads and writes for other banks excluding Bank 0 are
allowed.
16. If the user attempts to program or erase a protected sector, the device ignores the command and returns to read mode.
17. A program or erase command to a protected sector enables status polling and returns
to read mode without having modified the contents of the protected sector.
18. The programming of the DYB, PPB, and PPB Lock for a given sector can be verified by
writing individual status read commands DYB Status, PPB Status, and PPB Lock Status
to the device.

Table 8.2 contains all possible combinations of the DYB, PPB, and PPB Lock Bit relating to the
status of the sector. In summary, if the PPB Lock Bit is locked (set to “0”), no changes to the
PPBs are allowed. The PPB Lock Bit can only be unlocked (reset to “1”) through a hardware
reset or power cycle. See also Figure 8.1 for an overview of the Advanced Sector Protection
feature.
8.7 Hardware Data Protection Methods
The device offers two main types of data protection at the sector level via hardware control:
„ When WP# is at VIL, the four outermost sectors are locked (device specific).
„ When ACC is at VIL, all sectors are locked.
There are additional methods by which intended or accidental erasure of any sectors can be
prevented via hardware means. The following subsections describes these methods:
8.7.1. WP# Method
The Write Protect feature provides a hardware method of protecting the four outermost sectors. This function is provided by the WP# pin and overrides the previously discussed Sector
Protection/Unprotection method.
If the system asserts VIL on the WP# pin, the device disables program and erase functions in
the “outermost” boot sectors. The outermost boot sectors are the sectors containing both the
lower and upper set of sectors in a dual-boot-configured device.
If the system asserts VIH on the WP# pin, the device reverts to whether the boot sectors were
last set to be protected or unprotected. That is, sector protection or unprotection for these
sectors depends on whether they were last protected or unprotected.
Note that the WP# pin must not be left floating or unconnected as inconsistent behavior of
the device may result.
The WP# pin must be held stable during a command sequence execution
8.7.2 ACC Method
This method is similar to above, except it protects all sectors. Once ACC input is set to VIL,
all program and erase functions are disabled and hence all sectors are protected.
October 29, 2004 S29WSxxxN_00_F0
55
P r e l i m i n a r y
8.7.3 Low VCC Write Inhibit
When VCC is less than VLKO, the device does not accept any write cycles. This protects data
during VCC power-up and power-down.
The command register and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled, and the device
resets to reading array data. Subsequent writes are ignored until VCC is greater than VLKO.
The system must provide the proper signals to the control inputs to prevent unintentional
writes when VCC is greater than VLKO.
8.7.4 Write Pulse “Glitch Protection”
Noise pulses of less than 3 ns (typical) on OE#, CE# or WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
8.7.5 Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# = RESET# = VIL and OE# = VIH during power up, the device does not accept
commands on the rising edge of WE#. The internal state machine is automatically reset to
the read mode on power-up.

Power Conservation Modes
9.1 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 consumption is greatly reduced, 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# inputs are both held at VCC ± 0.2 V. The device
requires standard access time (tCE) for read access, before it is ready to read data. If the device is deselected during erasure or programming, the device draws active current until the
operation is completed. I CC3 in “DC Characteristics” represents the standby current
specification
9.2 Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device energy consumption while in asynchronous
mode. the device automatically enables this mode when addresses remain stable for tACC +
20 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. While in synchronous
mode, the automatic sleep mode is disabled. Note that a new burst operation is required to
provide new data. ICC6 in “DC Characteristics” represents the automatic sleep mode current
specification.
9.3 Hardware RESET# Input Operation
The RESET# input provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data.
When RESET# is driven low for at least a period of tRP, the device immediately terminates any
operation in progress, tristates all outputs, resets the configuration register, and ignores all
read/write commands for the duration of the RESET# pulse. The device also resets the internal state machine to reading array data. The operation that was interrupted should be
reinitiated once the device is ready to accept another command sequence to ensure data
integrity.
When RESET# is held at VSS ± 0.2 V, the device draws CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is held at VIL but not within VSS ± 0.2 V, the standby current will be greater.
RESET# may be tied to the system reset circuitry and thus, a system reset would also reset
the Flash memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.
9.4 Output Disable (OE#)
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is disabled. The outputs are placed in
the high impedance state.

10 SecSiTM (Secured Silicon) Sector Flash Memory Region
The SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector provides an extra Flash memory region that enables permanent part identification through an Electronic Serial Number (ESN). The SecSi Sector is
256 words in length that consists of 128 words for factory data and 128 words for customersecured areas. All SecSi reads outside of the 256-word address range will return invalid data.
The Factory Indicator Bit, DQ7, (at Autoselect address 03h) is used to indicate whether or not
the Factory SecSi Sector is locked when shipped from the factory. The Customer Indicator Bit
(DQ6) is used to indicate whether or not the Customer SecSi Sector is locked when shipped
from the factory.
Please note the following general conditions:
„ While SecSi Sector access is enabled, simultaneous operations are allowed except for
Bank 0.
„ On power-up, or following a hardware reset, the device reverts to sending commands to
the normal address space.
„ Reads can be performed in the Asynchronous or Synchronous mode.
„ Burst mode reads within SecSi Sector will wrap from address FFh back to address 00h.
„ Reads outside of sector 0 will return memory array data.
„ Continuous burst read past the maximum address is undefined.
„ Sector 0 is remapped from memory array to SecSi Sector array.
„ Once the SecSi Sector Entry Command is issued, the SecSi Sector Exit command must
be issued to exit SecSi Sector Mode.
„ The SecSi Sector is not accessible when the device is executing an Embedded Program
or Embedded Erase algorithm.

10.1 Factory SecSiTM Sector
The Factory SecSi Sector is always protected when shipped from the factory and has the Factory Indicator Bit (DQ7) permanently set to a “1”. This prevents cloning of a factory locked
part and ensures the security of the ESN and customer code once the product is shipped to
the field.
These devices are available pre programmed with one of the following:
„ A random, 8 Word secure ESN only within the Factory SecSi Sector
„ Customer code within the Customer SecSi Sector through the SpansionTM programming
service.
„ Both a random, secure ESN and customer code through the Spansion programming service.
Customers may opt to have their code programmed through the Spansion programming services. Spansion programs the customer's code, with or without the random ESN. The devices
are then shipped from the Spansion factory with the Factory SecSi Sector and Customer SecSi
Sector permanently locked. Contact your local representative for details on using Spansion
programming services.

10.2 Customer SecSiTM Sector
The Customer SecSi Sector is typically shipped unprotected (DQ6 set to “0”), allowing customers to utilize that sector in any manner they choose. If the security feature is not required,
the Customer SecSi Sector can be treated as an additional Flash memory space.
Please note the following:
„ Once the Customer SecSi Sector area is protected, the Customer Indicator Bit will be permanently set to “1.”
„ The Customer SecSi Sector can be read any number of times, but can be programmed
and locked only once. The Customer SecSi Sector lock must be used with caution as once
locked, there is no procedure available for unlocking the Customer SecSi Sector area and
none of the bits in the Customer SecSi Sector memory space can be modified in any way.
„ The accelerated programming (ACC) and unlock bypass functions are not available when
programming the Customer SecSi Sector, but reading in Banks 1 through 15 is available.
„ Once the Customer SecSi Sector is locked and verified, the system must write the Exit
SecSi Sector Region command sequence which return the device to the memory array at
sector 0.
10.3 SecSiTM Sector Entry and SecSi Sector Exit
Command Sequences
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
issues the four-cycle Exit SecSi Sector command sequence.
See Command Definition Table [SecSiTM Sector Command Table, Appendix
Table 12.1 for address and data requirements for both command sequences.
The SecSi Sector Entry Command allows the following commands to be executed
„ Read customer and factory SecSi areas
„ Program the customer SecSi Sector
After the system has written the Enter SecSi Sector command sequence, it may read the
SecSi Sector by using the addresses normally occupied by sector SA0 within the memory array. This mode of operation continues until the system issues the Exit SecSi Sector command
sequence, or until power is removed from the device.
Software Functions and Sample Code
The following are C functions and source code examples of using the SecSi Sector Entry, Program, and exit commands. Refer to the Spansion Low Level Driver User’s Guide (available
soon on www.amd.com and www.fujitsu.com) for general information on Spansion Flash
memory software development guidelines.

Asynchronous read mode allows Asynchronous program operation only. Synchronous read mode allows both Asynchronous and
Synchronous program operation.
In asynchronous program operation timing, addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE#. In synchronous program operation timing,
addresses are latched on the rising edge of CLK.
See the “Erase and Programming Performance” section for more information.
Does not include the preprogramming time.

Notes:
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 1.8 V VCC, 10,000
cycles; checkerboard data pattern.
2. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 1.70 V, 100,000 cycles.
3. Typical chip programming time is considerably less than the maximum chip programming
time listed, and is based on single word programming.
4. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all words 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 the Appendix for further information on command
definitions.
6. Contact the local sales office for minimum cycling endurance values in specific applications
and operating conditions.
7. Refer to Application Note “Erase Suspend/Resume Timing” for more details.
8. Word programming specification is based upon a single word programming operation not
utilizing the write buffer.

Notes:
1. See Table 6.4 for description of bus operations.
2. All values are in hexadecimal.
3. Shaded cells indicate read cycles.
4. Address and data bits not specified in table, legend, or notes are
don’t cares (each hex digit implies 4 bits of data).
5. Writing incorrect address and data values or writing them in the
improper sequence may place the device in an unknown state.
The system must write the reset command to return the device
to reading array data.
6. No unlock or command cycles required when bank is reading
array data.
7. Reset command is required to return to reading array data (or to
the erase-suspend-read mode if previously in Erase Suspend)
when a bank is in the autoselect mode, or if DQ5 goes high
(while the bank is providing status information) or performing
sector lock/unlock.
8. The system must provide the bank address. See Autoselect
section for more information.
9. Data in cycle 5 is 2230 (WS256N), 2232 (WS064N), or 2231
(WS128N).

SA = Sector Address. WS256N = A23–A14; WS128N = A22–A14;
WS064N = A21–A14.
BA = Bank Address. WS256N = A23–A20; WS128N = A22–A20;
WS064N = A21–A18.
CR = Configuration Register data bits D15–D0.
WBL = Write Buffer Location. Address must be within the same write
buffer page as PA.
WC = Word Count. Number of write buffer locations to load minus 1.
11. Total number of cycles in the command sequence is determined
by the number of words written to the write buffer. The number
of cycles in the command sequence is 37 for full page
programming (32 words). Less than 32 word programming is not
recommended.
12. Command sequence resets device for next command after writeto-buffer operation.
13. System may read and program in non-erasing sectors, or enter
the autoselect mode, when in the Erase Suspend mode. The
Erase Suspend command is valid only during a sector erase
operation, and requires the bank address.
14. Erase Resume command is valid only during the Erase Suspend
mode, and requires the bank address.
15. Command is valid when device is ready to read array data or
when device is in autoselect mode. Address will equal 55h on all
future devices, but 555h for WS256N/128N/064N.
16. Requires Entry command sequence prior to execution. Unlock
Bypass Reset command is required to return to reading array
data.
17. Requires Entry command sequence prior to execution. SecSi
Sector Exit Reset command is required to exit this mode; device
may otherwise be placed in an unknown state.
18. Requires reset command to configure the Configuration Register.

12.1 Common Flash Memory Interface
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification outlines device and host system software interrogation handshake, which allows specific vendor-specified soft-ware algorithms to be
used for entire families of devices. Software support can then be device-independent, JEDEC
ID-independent, and forward- and back-ward-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 system writes the CFI Query command, 98h,
to address (BA)555h any time the device is ready to read array data. The system can read
CFI information at the addresses given in Tables 12.3–12.6) within that bank. All reads outside of the CFI address range, within the bank, will return non-valid data. Reads from other
banks are allowed, writes are not. To terminate reading CFI data, the system must write the
reset command.
The following is a C source code example of using the CFI Entry and Exit functions. Refer to
t he S pans io n Lo w Lev el Driver U s er ’s Gu ide ( avail able on www.am d.c o m a nd
www.fujitsu.com) for general information on Spansion Flash memory software development
guidelines.
/* Example: CFI Entry command */
*( (UINT16 *)bank_addr + 0x555 ) = 0x0098;
/* write CFI entry command
*/
/* Example: CFI Exit command */
*( (UINT16 *)bank_addr + 0x000 ) = 0x00F0;
/* write cfi exit command
*/
For further information, please refer to the CFI Specification (see JEDEC publications JEP137A and JESD68.01and CFI Publication 100). Please contact your sales office for copies of these

13 Commonly Used Terms
Term
Definition
ACC
ACCelerate. A special purpose input signal which allows for faster programming or
erase operation when raised to a specified voltage above VCC. In some devices ACC
may protect all sectors when at a low voltage.
Amax
Most significant bit of the address input [A23 for 256Mbit, A22 for128Mbit, A21 for
64Mbit]
Amin
Least significant bit of the address input signals (A0 for all devices in this document).
Asynchronous
Operation where signal relationships are based only on propagation delays and are
unrelated to synchronous control (clock) signal.
Autoselect
Read mode for obtaining manufacturer and device information as well as sector
protection status.
Bank
Section of the memory array consisting of multiple consecutive sectors. A read
operation in one bank, can be independent of a program or erase operation in a
different bank for devices that offer simultaneous read and write feature.
Boot sector
Smaller size sectors located at the top and or bottom of Flash device address space.
The smaller sector size allows for finer granularity control of erase and protection for
code or parameters used to initiate system operation after power-on or reset.
Boundary
Location at the beginning or end of series of memory locations.
Burst Read
See synchronous read.
Byte
8 bits
CFI
Common Flash Interface. A Flash memory industry standard specification [JEDEC 137A and JESD68.01] designed to allow a system to interrogate the Flash to determine its
size, type and other performance parameters.
Clear
Zero (Logic Low Level)
Configuration Register
Special purpose register which must be programmed to enable synchronous read
mode
Continuous Read
Synchronous method of burst read whereby the device will read continuously until it is
stopped by the host, or it has reached the highest address of the memory array, after
which the read address wraps around to the lowest memory array address
Erase
Returns bits of a Flash memory array to their default state of a logical One (High Level).
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
Halts an erase operation to allow reading or programming in any sector that is not
selected for erasure
BGA
Ball Grid Array package. Spansion LLC offers two variations: Fortified Ball Grid Array
and Fine-pitch Ball Grid Array. See the specific package drawing or connection diagram
for further details.
Linear Read
Synchronous (burst) read operation in which 8, 16, or 32 words of sequential data with
or without wraparound before requiring a new initial address.
MCP
Multi-Chip Package. A method of combining integrated circuits in a single package by
“stacking” multiple die of the same or different devices.
Memory Array
The programmable area of the product available for data storage.
MirrorBit™ Technology
Spansion™ trademarked technology for storing multiple bits of data in the same
transistor.

P r e l i m i n a r y
Term
Definition
Page
Group of words that may be accessed more rapidly as a group than if the words were
accessed individually.
Page Read
Asynchronous read operation of several words in which the first word of the group
takes a longer initial access time and subsequent words in the group take less “page”
access time to be read. Different words in the group are accessed by changing only the
least significant address lines.
Password Protection
Sector protection method which uses a programmable password, in addition to the
Persistent Protection method, for protection of sectors in the Flash memory device.
Persistent Protection
Sector protection method that uses commands and only the standard core voltage
supply to control protection of sectors in the Flash memory device. This method
replaces a prior technique of requiring a 12V supply to control the protection method.
Program
Stores data into a Flash memory by selectively clearing bits of the memory array in
order to leave a data pattern of “ones” and “zeros”.
Program Suspend/Program
Resume
Halts a programming operation to read data from any location that is not selected for
programming or erase.
Read
Host bus cycle that causes the Flash to output data onto the data bus.
Registers
Dynamic storage bits for holding device control information or tracking the status of
an operation.
SecSi™
Secured Silicon. An area consisting of 256 bytes in which any word may be
programmed once, and the entire area may be protected once from any future
programming. Information in this area may be programmed at the factory or by the
user. Once programmed and protected there is no way to change the secured
information. This area is often used to store a software readable identification such as
a serial number.
Sector Protection
Use of one or more control bits per sector to indicate whether each sector may be
programmed or erased. If the Protection bit for a sector is set the embedded
algorithms for program or erase will ignore program or erase commands related to that
sector.
Sector
An Area of the memory array in which all bits must be erased together by an erase
operation.
Simultaneous Operation
Mode of operation in which a host system may issue a program or erase command to
one bank, that embedded algorithm operation may then proceed while the host
immediately follows the embedded algorithm command with reading from another
bank. Reading may continue concurrently in any bank other than the one executing
the embedded algorithm operation.
Synchronous Operation
Operation that progresses only when a timing signal, known as a clock, transitions
between logic levels (that is, at a clock edge).
VersatileIO™ (VIO)
Separate power supply or voltage reference signal that allows the host system to set
the voltage levels that the device generates at its data outputs and the voltages
tolerated at its data inputs.
Unlock Bypass
Mode that facilitates faster program times by reducing the number of command bus
cycles required to issue a write operation command. In this mode the initial two
“Unlock” write cycles, of the usual 4 cycle Program command, are not required –
reducing all Program commands to two bus cycles while in this mode.
Word
Two contiguous bytes (16 bits) located at an even byte boundary. A double word is two
contiguous words located on a two word boundary. A quad word is four contiguous
words located on a four word boundary.

P r e l i m i n a r y
Term
Definition
Wraparound
Special burst read mode where the read address “wraps” or returns back to the lowest
address boundary in the selected range of words, after reading the last Byte or Word
in the range, e.g. for a 4 word range of 0 to 3, a read beginning at word 2 would read
words in the sequence 2, 3, 0, 1.
Write
Interchangeable term for a program/erase operation where the content of a register
and or memory location is being altered. The term write is often associated with
“writing command cycles” to enter or exit a particular mode of operation.
Write Buffer
Multi-word area in which multiple words may be programmed as a single operation. A
Write Buffer may be 16 to 32 words long and is located on a 16 or 32 word boundary
respectively.
Write Buffer Programming
Method of writing multiple words, up to the maximum size of the Write Buffer, in one
operation. Using Write Buffer Programming will result in ≥ 8 times faster programming
time than by using single word at a time programming commands.
Write Operation Status
Allows the host system to determine the status of a program or erase operation by
reading several special purpose register bits.
