SUPPLEMENT Am29DL800B Data Sheet Supplement for PROM Programmer Manufacturers This supplement is for use with the Am29DL800B data sheet, document number 21519. This document describes the sector protection and sector unprotection functions intended for programming equipment. The Am29DL800B device also offers in-system sector protection and unprotection. Refer to the data sheet for more information. Sector Protection The Am29DL800B 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 VID 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 V IL 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), V IL 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 VIH. Scanning the sector addresses on A18–A12 while (A6, A1, A0) = (VIH, VIH, VIL) 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 = VIL are reserved for Autoselect manufacturer and device codes. Note that the temporary sector unprotect procedure can be found in the Am29DL800B data sheet.
