Description
Description
The M29W320E is a 32 Mbit (4Mb x8 or 2Mb x16) non-volatile memory that can be read,
erased and reprogrammed. These operations can be performed using a single low voltage
(2.7 to 3.6V) supply. On power-up the memory defaults to its Read mode.
The device features an asymmetrical block architecture. The M29W320E has an array of 8
parameter and 63 main blocks. M29W320ET locates the Parameter Blocks at the top of the
memory address space while the M29W320EB locates the Parameter Blocks starting from
the bottom.
M29W320E has an extra 32 Kword (x16 mode) or 64 Kbyte (x8 mode) block, the Extended
Block, that can be accessed using a dedicated command. The Extended Block can be
protected and so is useful for storing security information. However the protection is
irreversible, once protected the protection cannot be undone.
Each block can be erased independently so it is possible to preserve valid data while old
data is erased. The blocks can be protected to prevent accidental Program or Erase
commands from modifying the memory. Program and Erase commands are written to the
Command interface of the memory. An on-chip Program/Erase Controller simplifies the
process of programming or erasing the memory by taking care of all of the special
operations that are required to update the memory contents. The end of a program or erase
operation can be detected and any error conditions identified. The command set required to
control the memory is consistent with JEDEC standards.
Chip Enable, Output Enable and Write Enable signals control the bus operation of the
memory. They allow simple connection to most microprocessors, often without additional
logic.
The memory is offered in TSOP48 (12x20mm), and TFBGA48 (6x8mm, 0.8mm pitch)
packages. In order to meet environmental requirements, Numonyx offers the M29W320E in
ECOPACK® packages. ECOPACK packages are Lead-free. The category of second Level
Interconnect is marked on the package and on the inner box label, in compliance with
JEDEC Standard JESD97. The maximum ratings related to soldering conditions are also
marked on the inner box label.
The memory is supplied with all the bits erased (set to ’1’).

Signal descriptions
Signal descriptions
See Figure 1: Logic diagram, and Table 1: Signal names, for a brief overview of the signals
connected to this device.
2.1
Address Inputs (A0-A20)
The Address Inputs select the cells in the memory array to access during Bus Read
operations. During Bus Write operations they control the commands sent to the Command
interface of the Program/Erase Controller.
2.2
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7)
The Data I/O outputs the data stored at the selected address during a Bus Read operation.
During Bus Write operations they represent the commands sent to the Command interface
of the Program/Erase Controller.
2.3
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ8-DQ14)
The Data I/O outputs the data stored at the selected address during a Bus Read operation
when BYTE is High, VIH. When BYTE is Low, VIL, these pins are not used and are high
impedance. During Bus Write operations the Command Register does not use these bits.
When reading the Status register these bits should be ignored.
2.4
Data Input/Output or Address Input (DQ15A–1)
When BYTE is High, VIH, this pin behaves as a Data Input/Output pin (as DQ8-DQ14).
When BYTE is Low, VIL, this pin behaves as an address pin; DQ15A–1 Low will select the
LSB of the addressed word, DQ15A–1 High will select the MSB. Throughout the text
consider references to the Data Input/Output to include this pin when BYTE is High and
references to the Address Inputs to include this pin when BYTE is Low except when stated
explicitly otherwise.
2.5
Chip Enable (E)
The Chip Enable, E, activates the memory, allowing Bus Read and Bus Write operations to
be performed. When Chip Enable is High, VIH, all other pins are ignored.
2.6
Output Enable (G)
The Output Enable, G, controls the Bus Read operation of the memory.
13/63
Signal descriptions
2.7
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Write Enable (W)
The Write Enable, W, controls the Bus Write operation of the memory’s Command interface.
2.8
VPP/Write Protect (VPP/WP)
The VPP/Write Protect pin provides two functions. The VPP function allows the memory to
use an external high voltage power supply to reduce the time required for Program
operations. This is achieved by bypassing the unlock cycles and/or using the Double word or
Quadruple byte Program commands.
The Write Protect function provides a hardware method of protecting the two outermost boot
blocks. When VPP/Write Protect is Low, VIL, the memory protects the two outermost boot
blocks; Program and Erase operations in these blocks are ignored while VPP/Write Protect is
Low, even when RP is at VID.
When VPP/Write Protect is High, VIH, the memory reverts to the previous protection status
of the two outermost boot blocks. Program and Erase operations can now modify the data
in these blocks unless the blocks are protected using Block Protection.
When VPP/Write Protect is raised to VPP the memory automatically enters the Unlock
Bypass mode. When VPP/Write Protect returns to VIH or VIL normal operation resumes.
During Unlock Bypass Program operations the memory draws IPP from the pin to supply the
programming circuits. See the description of the Unlock Bypass command in the Command
interface section. The transitions from VIH to VPP and from VPP to VIH must be slower than
tVHVPP, see Figure 16
Never raise VPP/Write Protect to VPP from any mode except Read mode, otherwise the
memory may be left in an indeterminate state.
The VPP/Write Protect pin must not be left floating or unconnected or the device may
become unreliable. A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected between the VPP/Write Protect
pin and the VSS Ground pin to decouple the current surges from the power supply. The PCB
track widths must be sufficient to carry the currents required during Unlock Bypass Program,
IPP.
2.9
Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect (RP)
The Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect pin can be used to apply a Hardware Reset to the
memory or to temporarily unprotect all Blocks that have been protected.
Note that if VPP/WP is at VIL, then the two outermost boot blocks will remain protected even
if RP is at VID.
A Hardware Reset is achieved by holding Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect Low, VIL, for at
least tPLPX. After Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect goes High, VIH, the memory will be
ready for Bus Read and Bus Write operations after tPHEL or tRHEL, whichever occurs last.
See the Ready/Busy Output section, Table 16 and Figure 15: Reset/Block Temporary
Unprotect ac waveforms, for more details.
Holding RP at VID will temporarily unprotect the protected Blocks in the memory. Program
and Erase operations on all blocks will be possible. The transition from VIH to VID must be
slower than tPHPHH.
14/63
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
2.10
Signal descriptions
Ready/Busy Output (RB)
The Ready/Busy pin is an open-drain output that can be used to identify when the device is
performing a Program or Erase operation. During Program or Erase operations Ready/Busy
is Low, VOL. Ready/Busy is high-impedance during Read mode, Auto Select mode and
Erase Suspend mode.
After a Hardware Reset, Bus Read and Bus Write operations cannot begin until Ready/Busy
becomes high-impedance. See Table 16 and Figure 15: Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect
ac waveforms.
The use of an open-drain output allows the Ready/Busy pins from several memories to be
connected to a single pull-up resistor. A Low will then indicate that one, or more, of the
memories is busy.
2.11
Byte/word Organization Select (BYTE)
The byte/word Organization Select pin is used to switch between the x8 and x16 Bus modes
of the memory. When byte/word Organization Select is Low, VIL, the memory is in x8 mode,
when it is High, VIH, the memory is in x16 mode.
2.12
VCC Supply voltage
VCC provides the power supply for all operations (Read, Program and Erase).
The Command interface is disabled when the VCC Supply voltage is less than the Lockout
voltage, VLKO. This prevents Bus Write operations from accidentally damaging the data
during power up, power down and power surges. If the Program/Erase Controller is
programming or erasing during this time then the operation aborts and the memory contents
being altered will be invalid.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected between the VCC Supply voltage pin and the VSS
Ground pin to decouple the current surges from the power supply. The PCB track widths
must be sufficient to carry the currents required during Program and Erase operations, ICC3.
2.13
VSS Ground
VSS is the reference for all voltage measurements. The device features two VSS pins which
must be both connected to the system ground.
15/63
Bus operations
3
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Bus operations
There are five standard bus operations that control the device. These are Bus Read, Bus
Write, Output Disable, Standby and Automatic Standby.
See Table 2 and Table 3, Bus operations, for a summary. Typically glitches of less than 5ns
on Chip Enable or Write Enable are ignored by the memory and do not affect bus
operations.
3.1
Bus Read
Bus Read operations read from the memory cells, or specific registers in the Command
interface. A valid Bus Read operation involves setting the desired address on the Address
Inputs, applying a Low signal, VIL, to Chip Enable and Output Enable and keeping Write
Enable High, VIH. The Data Inputs/Outputs will output the value, see Figure 10: Read mode
ac waveforms, and Table 12: Read ac characteristics, for details of when the output
becomes valid.
3.2
Bus Write
Bus Write operations write to the Command interface. A valid Bus Write operation begins by
setting the desired address on the Address Inputs. The Address Inputs are latched by the
Command interface on the falling edge of Chip Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs
last. The Data Inputs/Outputs are latched by the Command interface on the rising edge of
Chip Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs first. Output Enable must remain High, VIH,
during the whole Bus Write operation. See Figure 11 and Figure 12, Write ac waveforms,
and Table 13 and Table 14, Write ac characteristics, for details of the timing requirements.
3.3
Output Disable
The Data Inputs/Outputs are in the high impedance state when Output Enable is High, VIH.
3.4
Standby
When Chip Enable is High, VIH, the memory enters Standby mode and the Data
Inputs/Outputs pins are placed in the high-impedance state. To reduce the Supply current to
the Standby Supply current, ICC2, Chip Enable should be held within VCC ± 0.2V. For the
Standby current level see Table 11: DC characteristics.
During program or erase operations the memory will continue to use the Program/Erase
Supply current, ICC3, for Program or Erase operations until the operation completes.
16/63
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
3.5
Bus operations
Automatic Standby
If CMOS levels (VCC ± 0.2V) are used to drive the bus and the bus is inactive for 300ns or
more the memory enters Automatic Standby where the internal Supply current is reduced to
the Standby Supply current, ICC2. The Data Inputs/Outputs will still output data if a Bus
Read operation is in progress.
3.6
Special bus operations
Additional bus operations can be performed to read the Electronic signature and also to
apply and remove Block Protection. These bus operations are intended for use by
programming equipment and are not usually used in applications. They require VID to be
applied to some pins.
3.6.1
Electronic signature
The memory has two codes, the manufacturer code and the device code, that can be read
to identify the memory. These codes can be read by applying the signals listed in Table 2
and Table 3, Bus operations.
3.6.2
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect
Groups of blocks can be protected against accidental Program or Erase. The Protection
groups are shown in Appendix A: Block Addresses, Table 20 and Table 21, Block
Addresses. The whole chip can be unprotected to allow the data inside the blocks to be
changed.
The VPP/Write Protect pin can be used to protect the two outermost boot blocks. When
VPP/Write Protect is at VIL the two outermost boot blocks are protected and remain
protected regardless of the Block Protection Status or the Reset/Block Temporary
Unprotect pin status.
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect operations are described in Appendix D: Block Protection.

Command interface

M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Command interface
All Bus Write operations to the memory are interpreted by the Command interface.
Commands consist of one or more sequential Bus Write operations. Failure to observe a
valid sequence of Bus Write operations will result in the memory returning to Read mode.
The long command sequences are imposed to maximize data security.
The address used for the commands changes depending on whether the memory is in 16bit or 8-bit mode. See either Table 4, or Table 5, depending on the configuration that is being
used, for a summary of the commands.
4.1
Read/Reset command
The Read/Reset command returns the memory to its Read mode. It also resets the errors in
the Status register. Either one or three Bus Write operations can be used to issue the
Read/Reset command.
The Read/Reset command can be issued, between Bus Write cycles before the start of a
program or erase operation, to return the device to read mode. If the Read/Reset command
is issued during the time-out of a Block erase operation then the memory will take up to
10µs to abort. During the abort period no valid data can be read from the memory. The
Read/Reset command will not abort an Erase operation when issued while in Erase
Suspend.
4.2
Auto Select command
The Auto Select command is used to read the Manufacturer code, the Device code, the
Block Protection Status and the Extended memory Block Verify code. Three consecutive
Bus Write operations are required to issue the Auto Select command. The memory remains
in Auto Select mode until a Read/Reset or CFI Query command is issued.
In Auto Select mode the Manufacturer code can be read using a Bus Read operation with
A0 = VIL and A1 = VIL. The other address bits may be set to either VIL or VIH.
The Device code can be read using a Bus Read operation with A0 = VIH and A1 = VIL. The
other address bits may be set to either VIL or VIH.
The Block Protection Status of each block can be read using a Bus Read operation with A0
= VIL, A1 = VIH and A12-A20 specifying the block address. The other address bits may be
set to either VIL or VIH. If the addressed block is protected then 01h is output on Data
Inputs/Outputs DQ0-DQ7, otherwise 00h is output.
20/63
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
4.3
Command interface
Read CFI Query command
The Read CFI Query Command is used to read data from the Common Flash Interface
(CFI) memory Area. This command is valid when the device is in the Read Array mode, or
when the device is in Auto Select mode.
One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the Read CFI Query Command. Once the
command is issued subsequent Bus Read operations read from the Common Flash
Interface memory Area.
The Read/Reset command must be issued to return the device to the previous mode (the
Read Array mode or Auto Select mode). A second Read/Reset command would be needed
if the device is to be put in the Read Array mode from Auto Select mode.
See Appendix B: Common Flash Interface (CFI), Table 22, Table 23, Table 24, Table 25,
Table 26 and Table 27 for details on the information contained in the Common Flash
Interface (CFI) memory area.
4.4
Program command
The Program command can be used to program a value to one address in the memory array
at a time. The command requires four Bus Write operations, the final write operation latches
the address and data, and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
If the address falls in a protected block then the Program command is ignored, the data
remains unchanged. The Status register is never read and no error condition is given.
During the program operation the memory will ignore all commands. It is not possible to
issue any command to abort or pause the operation. After programming has started, Bus
Read operations output the Status register content. See Section 5: Status register for more
details. Typical program times are given in Table 6
After the program operation has completed the memory will return to the Read mode, unless
an error has occurred. When an error occurs Bus Read operations will continue to output
the Status register. A Read/Reset command must be issued to reset the error condition and
return to Read mode.
Note that the Program command cannot change a bit set at ’0’ back to ’1’. One of the Erase
Commands must be used to set all the bits in a block or in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.
21/63
Command interface
4.5
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Fast Program commands
There are two Fast Program commands available to improve the programming throughput,
by writing several adjacent words or bytes in parallel. The Quadruple byte Program
command is available for x8 operations, while the Double word Program command is
available for x16 operations.
Fast Program commands should not be attempted when VPP/WP is not at VPP. Care must
be taken because applying a 12V VPP voltage to the VPP/WP pin will temporarily unprotect
any protected block.
After programming has started, Bus Read operations output the Status register content.
After the program operation has completed the memory will return to the Read mode, unless
an error has occurred. When an error occurs Bus Read operations will continue to output
the Status register. A Read/Reset command must be issued to reset the error condition and
return to Read mode.
Note that the Fast Program commands cannot change a bit set at ’0’ back to ’1’. One of the
Erase Commands must be used to set all the bits in a block or in the whole memory from ’0’
to ’1’.
Typical Program times are given in Table 6: Program, Erase times and Program, Erase
Endurance cycles
4.5.1
Quadruple byte Program command
The Quadruple byte Program command is used to write a page of four adjacent bytes in
parallel. The four bytes must differ only for addresses A0, DQ15A-1. Five bus write cycles
are necessary to issue the Quadruple byte Program command.
4.5.2
1.
The first bus cycle sets up the Quadruple byte Program command.
2.
The second bus cycle latches the Address and the Data of the first byte to be written.
3.
The third bus cycle latches the Address and the Data of the second byte to be written.
4.
The fourth bus cycle latches the Address and the Data of the third byte to be written.
5.
The fifth bus cycle latches the Address and the Data of the fourth byte to be written and
starts the Program/Erase Controller.
Double word Program command
The Double word Program command is used to write a page of two adjacent words in
parallel. The two words must differ only for the address A0.
Three bus write cycles are necessary to issue the Double word Program command.
22/63
1.
The first bus cycle sets up the Double word Program command.
2.
The second bus cycle latches the Address and the Data of the first word to be written.
3.
The third bus cycle latches the Address and the Data of the second word to be written
and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
4.6
Command interface
Unlock Bypass command
The Unlock Bypass command is used in conjunction with the Unlock Bypass Program
command to program the memory faster than with the standard program commands. When
the cycle time to the device is long, considerable time saving can be made by using these
commands. Three Bus Write operations are required to issue the Unlock Bypass command.
Once the Unlock Bypass command has been issued the memory enters Unlock Bypass
mode. The Unlock Bypass Program command can then be issued to program addresses or
the Unlock Bypass Reset command can be issued to return to Read mode. In Unlock
Bypass mode the memory can be read as if in Read mode.
When VPP is applied to the VPP/Write Protect pin the memory automatically enters the
Unlock Bypass mode and the Unlock Bypass Program command can be issued
immediately. Care must be taken because applying a 12V VPP voltage to the VPP/WP pin
will temporarily unprotect any protected block.
4.7
Unlock Bypass Program command
The Unlock Bypass Program command can be used to program one address in the memory
array at a time. The command requires two Bus Write operations, the final write operation
latches the address and data, and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
The Program operation using the Unlock Bypass Program command behaves identically to
the Program operation using the Program command. The operation cannot be aborted, a
Bus Read operation outputs the Status register. See the Program command for details on
the behavior.
4.8
Unlock Bypass Reset command
The Unlock Bypass Reset command can be used to return to Read/Reset mode from
Unlock Bypass mode. Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the Unlock Bypass
Reset command. Read/Reset command does not exit from Unlock Bypass mode.
4.9
Chip Erase command
The Chip Erase command can be used to erase the entire chip. Six Bus Write operations
are required to issue the Chip Erase Command and start the Program/Erase Controller.
If any blocks are protected then these are ignored and all the other blocks are erased. If all
of the blocks are protected the Chip Erase operation appears to start but will terminate
within about 100µs, leaving the data unchanged. No error condition is given when protected
blocks are ignored.
During the erase operation the memory will ignore all commands, including the Erase
Suspend command. It is not possible to issue any command to abort the operation. Typical
chip erase times are given in Table 6. All Bus Read operations during the Chip Erase
operation will output the Status register on the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the section on the
Status register for more details.
After the Chip Erase operation has completed the memory will return to the Read mode,
unless an error has occurred. When an error occurs the memory will continue to output the
23/63
Command interface
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Status register. A Read/Reset command must be issued to reset the error condition and
return to Read mode.
The Chip Erase Command sets all of the bits in unprotected blocks of the memory to ’1’. All
previous data is lost.
4.10
Block Erase command
The Block Erase command can be used to erase a list of one or more blocks. It sets all of
the bits in the unprotected selected blocks to ’1’. All previous data in the selected blocks is
lost.
Six Bus Write operations are required to select the first block in the list. Each additional
block in the list can be selected by repeating the sixth Bus Write operation using the address
of the additional block. The Block Erase operation starts the Program/Erase Controller after
a time-out period of 50µs after the last Bus Write operation. Once the Program/Erase
Controller starts it is not possible to select any more blocks. Each additional block must
therefore be selected within 50µs of the last block. The 50µs timer restarts when an
additional block is selected. After the sixth Bus Write operation a Bus Read operation will
output the Status register. See the Status register section for details on how to identify if the
Program/Erase Controller has started the Block Erase operation.
If any selected blocks are protected then these are ignored and all the other selected blocks
are erased. If all of the selected blocks are protected the Block Erase operation appears to
start but will terminate within about 100µs, leaving the data unchanged. No error condition is
given when protected blocks are ignored.
During the Block Erase operation the memory will ignore all commands except the Erase
Suspend command and the Read/Reset command which is only accepted during the 50µs
time-out period. Typical block erase times are given in Table 6.
After the Erase operation has started all Bus Read operations will output the Status register
on the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the section on the Status register for more details.
After the Block Erase operation has completed the memory will return to the Read mode,
unless an error has occurred. When an error occurs Bus Read operations will continue to
output the Status register. A Read/Reset command must be issued to reset the error
condition and return to Read mode.
4.11
Erase Suspend command
The Erase Suspend Command may be used to temporarily suspend a Block Erase
operation and return the memory to Read mode. The command requires one Bus Write
operation.
The Program/Erase Controller will suspend within the Erase Suspend Latency time of the
Erase Suspend Command being issued. Once the Program/Erase Controller has stopped
the memory will be set to Read mode and the Erase will be suspended. If the Erase
Suspend command is issued during the period when the memory is waiting for an additional
block (before the Program/Erase Controller starts) then the Erase is suspended immediately
and will start immediately when the Erase Resume Command is issued. It is not possible to
select any further blocks to erase after the Erase Resume.
24/63
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Command interface
During Erase Suspend it is possible to Read and Program cells in blocks that are not being
erased; both Read and Program operations behave as normal on these blocks. If any
attempt is made to program in a protected block or in the suspended block then the Program
command is ignored and the data remains unchanged. The Status register is not read and
no error condition is given. Reading from blocks that are being erased will output the Status
register.
It is also possible to issue the Auto Select, Read CFI Query and Unlock Bypass commands
during an Erase Suspend. The Read/Reset command must be issued to return the device to
Read Array mode before the Resume command will be accepted.
During Erase Suspend a Bus Read operation to the Extended Block will output the
Extended Block data.
4.12
Erase Resume command
The Erase Resume command must be used to restart the Program/Erase Controller after an
Erase Suspend. The device must be in Read Array mode before the Resume command will
be accepted. An erase can be suspended and resumed more than once.
4.13
Enter Extended Block command
The M29W320E has an extra 64Kbyte block (Extended Block) that can only be accessed
using the Enter Extended Block command. Three Bus write cycles are required to issue the
Extended Block command. Once the command has been issued the device enters
Extended Block mode where all Bus Read or Program operations to the Boot Block
addresses access the Extended Block. The Extended Block (with the same address as the
boot block) cannot be erased, and can be treated as one-time programmable (OTP)
memory. In Extended Block mode the Boot Blocks are not accessible.
To exit from the Extended Block mode the Exit Extended Block command must be issued.
The Extended Block can be protected, however once protected the protection cannot be
undone.
4.14
Exit Extended Block command
The Exit Extended Block command is used to exit from the Extended Block mode and return
the device to Read mode. Four Bus Write operations are required to issue the command.
4.15
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect commands
Groups of blocks can be protected against accidental Program or Erase. The Protection
groups are shown in Appendix A: Block Addresses, Table 20 and Table 21, Block
Addresses. The whole chip can be unprotected to allow the data inside the blocks to be
changed.
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect operations are described in Appendix D: Block Protection.

Status register
Status register
The M29W320E has one Status register. It provides information on the current or previous
Program or Erase operations. The various bits convey information and errors on the
operation. Bus Read operations from any address, always read the Status register during
Program and Erase operations. It is also read during Erase Suspend when an address
within a block being erased is accessed.
The bits in the Status register are summarized in Table 7: Status register bits.
5.1
Data Polling bit (DQ7)
The Data Polling bit can be used to identify whether the Program/Erase Controller has
successfully completed its operation or if it has responded to an Erase Suspend. The Data
Polling bit is output on DQ7 when the Status register is read.
During Program operations the Data Polling bit outputs the complement of the bit being
programmed to DQ7. After successful completion of the Program operation the memory
returns to Read mode and Bus Read operations from the address just programmed output
DQ7, not its complement.
During Erase operations the Data Polling bit outputs ’0’, the complement of the erased state
of DQ7. After successful completion of the Erase operation the memory returns to Read
mode.
In Erase Suspend mode the Data Polling bit will output a ’1’ during a Bus Read operation
within a block being erased. The Data Polling bit will change from a ’0’ to a ’1’ when the
Program/Erase Controller has suspended the Erase operation.
Figure 6: Data Polling flowchart, gives an example of how to use the Data Polling bit. A Valid
Address is the address being programmed or an address within the block being erased.
5.2
Toggle bit (DQ6)
The Toggle bit can be used to identify whether the Program/Erase Controller has
successfully completed its operation or if it has responded to an Erase Suspend. The Toggle
bit is output on DQ6 when the Status register is read.
During Program and Erase operations the Toggle bit changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc., with
successive Bus Read operations at any address. After successful completion of the
operation the memory returns to Read mode.
During Erase Suspend mode the Toggle bit will output when addressing a cell within a block
being erased. The Toggle bit will stop toggling when the Program/Erase Controller has
suspended the Erase operation.
Figure 7: Toggle flowchart, gives an example of how to use the Data Toggle bit. Figure 13
and Figure 14 describe Toggle bit timing waveform.
29/63
Status register
5.3
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Error bit (DQ5)
The Error bit can be used to identify errors detected by the Program/Erase Controller. The
Error bit is set to ’1’ when a Program, Block Erase or Chip Erase operation fails to write the
correct data to the memory. If the Error bit is set a Read/Reset command must be issued
before other commands are issued. The Error bit is output on DQ5 when the Status register
is read.
Note that the Program command cannot change a bit set to ’0’ back to ’1’ and attempting to
do so will set DQ5 to ‘1’. A Bus Read operation to that address will show the bit is still ‘0’.
One of the Erase commands must be used to set all the bits in a block or in the whole
memory from ’0’ to ’1’.
5.4
Erase Timer bit (DQ3)
The Erase Timer bit can be used to identify the start of Program/Erase Controller operation
during a Block Erase command. Once the Program/Erase Controller starts erasing the
Erase Timer bit is set to ’1’. Before the Program/Erase Controller starts the Erase Timer bit
is set to ’0’ and additional blocks to be erased may be written to the Command interface.
The Erase Timer bit is output on DQ3 when the Status register is read.
5.5
Alternative Toggle bit (DQ2)
The alternative Toggle bit can be used to monitor the Program/Erase controller during Erase
operations. The alternative Toggle bit is output on DQ2 when the Status register is read.
During Chip Erase and Block Erase operations the Toggle bit changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’,
etc., with successive Bus Read operations from addresses within the blocks being erased. A
protected block is treated the same as a block not being erased. Once the operation
completes the memory returns to Read mode.
During Erase Suspend the alternative Toggle bit changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc. with
successive Bus Read operations from addresses within the blocks being erased. Bus Read
operations to addresses within blocks not being erased will output the memory cell data as if
in Read mode.
After an Erase operation that causes the Error bit to be set the alternative Toggle bit can be
used to identify which block or blocks have caused the error. The alternative Toggle bit
changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc. with successive Bus Read Operations from addresses
within blocks that have not erased correctly. The alternative Toggle bit does not change if the
addressed block has erased correctly.

M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Common Flash Interface (CFI)
The Common Flash Interface is a JEDEC approved, standardized data structure that can be read from
the Flash memory device. It allows a system software to query the device to determine various electrical
and timing parameters, density information and functions supported by the memory. The system can
interface easily with the device, enabling the software to upgrade itself when necessary. When the CFI
Query Command is issued the device enters CFI Query mode and the data structure is read from the
memory. Table 22, Table 23, Table 24, Table 25, Table 26 and Table 27 show the addresses used to
retrieve the data.
The CFI data structure also contains a security area where a 64 bit unique security number is written
(see Table 27: Security code area). This area can be accessed only in Read mode by the final user. It is
impossible to change the security number after it has been written by Numonyx.

Extended memory Block
Appendix C
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Extended memory Block
The M29W320E has an extra block, the Extended Block, that can be accessed using a
dedicated command.
This Extended Block is 32 Kwords in x16 mode and 64 Kbytes in x8 mode. It is used as a
security block (to provide a permanent security identification number) or to store additional
information.
The Extended Block is either Factory Locked or Customer Lockable, its status is indicated
by bit DQ7. This bit is permanently set to either ‘1’ or ‘0’ at the factory and cannot be
changed. When set to ‘1’, it indicates that the device is factory locked and the Extended
Block is protected. When set to ‘0’, it indicates that the device is customer lockable and the
Extended Block is unprotected. Bit DQ7 being permanently locked to either ‘1’ or ‘0’ is
another security feature which ensures that a customer lockable device cannot be used
instead of a factory locked one.
Bit DQ7 is the most significant bit in the Extended Block Verify code and a specific
procedure must be followed to read it. See “Extended memory Block Verify code” in Table 2
and Section Table 3. on page 19, Table 2: Bus operations, BYTE = VIL and Table 3: Bus
operations, BYTE = VIH, respectively, for details of how to read bit DQ7.
The Extended Block can only be accessed when the device is in Extended Block mode. For
details of how the Extended Block mode is entered and exited, refer to Section 4.13: Enter
Extended Block command and Section 4.14: Exit Extended Block command, and to Table 4
and Table 5, Table 4: Commands, 16-bit mode, BYTE = VIH and Table 5: Commands, 8-bit
mode, BYTE = VIL, respectively.
9.1
Factory Locked Extended Block
In devices where the Extended Block is factory locked, the Security Identification Number is
written to the Extended Block address space (see Table 28: Extended Block Address and
data) in the factory. The DQ7 bit is set to ‘1’ and the Extended Block cannot be unprotected.
9.2
Customer Lockable Extended Block
A device where the Extended Block is customer lockable is delivered with the DQ7 bit set to
‘0’ and the Extended Block unprotected. It is up to the customer to program and protect the
Extended Block but care must be taken because the protection of the Extended Block is not
reversible.
There are two ways of protecting the Extended Block:
54/63
●
Issue the Enter Extended Block command to place the device in Extended Block mode,
then use the In-system technique with RP either at VIH or at VID (refer to Appendix D:
Block Protection, Section D.2: In-system technique and to the corresponding
flowcharts, Figure 21 and Figure 22, for a detailed explanation of the technique).
●
Issue the Enter Extended Block command to place the device in Extended Block mode,
then use the Programmer technique (refer to Appendix D: Block Protection,
Section D.1: Programmer technique and to the corresponding flowcharts, Figure 19
and Figure 20, for a detailed explanation of the technique).
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Extended memory Block
Once the Extended Block is programmed and protected, the Exit Extended Block command must be
issued to exit the Extended Block mode and return the device to Read mode.

Block Protection
Appendix D
M29W320ET, M29W320EB
Block Protection
Block protection can be used to prevent any operation from modifying the data stored in the
memory. The blocks are protected in groups, refer to Appendix A: Block Addresses,
Table 20 and Table 21. for details of the Protection groups. Once protected, Program and
Erase operations within the protected group fail to change the data.
There are three techniques that can be used to control Block Protection, these are the
Programmer technique, the In-system technique and Temporary Unprotection. Temporary
Unprotection is controlled by the Reset/Block Temporary Unprotection pin, RP; this is
described in the Signal Descriptions section.
D.1
Programmer technique
The Programmer technique uses high (VID) voltage levels on some of the bus pins. These
cannot be achieved using a standard microprocessor bus, therefore the technique is
recommended only for use in programming equipment.
To protect a group of blocks follow the flowchart in Figure 19, Programmer Equipment Block
Protect flowchart. To unprotect the whole chip it is necessary to protect all of the groups first,
then all groups can be unprotected at the same time. To unprotect the chip follow Figure 20:
Programmer Equipment Chip Unprotect flowchart. Table 29: Programmer technique Bus
operations, BYTE = VIH or VIL, gives a summary of each operation.
The timing on these flowcharts is critical. Care should be taken to ensure that, where a
pause is specified, it is followed as closely as possible. Do not abort the procedure before
reaching the end. Chip Unprotect can take several seconds and a user message should be
provided to show that the operation is progressing.
D.2
In-system technique
The In-system technique requires a high voltage level on the Reset/Blocks Temporary
Unprotect pin, RP(1). This can be achieved without violating the maximum ratings of the
components on the microprocessor bus, therefore this technique is suitable for use after the
memory has been fitted to the system.
To protect a group of blocks follow the flowchart in Figure 21: In-system Equipment Group
Protect flowchart. To unprotect the whole chip it is necessary to protect all of the groups first,
then all the groups can be unprotected at the same time. To unprotect the chip follow
Figure 22: In-system Equipment Chip Unprotect flowchart.
The timing on these flowcharts is critical. Care should be taken to ensure that, where a
pause is specified, it is followed as closely as possible. Do not allow the microprocessor to
service interrupts that will upset the timing and do not abort the procedure before reaching
the end. Chip Unprotect can take several seconds and a user message should be provided
to show that the operation is progressing.
Note:
56/63
RP can be either at VIH or at VID when using the In-system technique to protect the
Extended Block.
