General Description
Suspend mode. The standard A29L320A offers access times
of 70,80,90 and 120ns, allowing high-speed microprocessors
to operate without wait states. To eliminate bus contention
the device has separate chip enable ( CE ), write enable
The A29L320A is a 32Mbit, 3.3 volt-only Flash memory
organized as 2,097,152 words of 16 bits or 4,194,304 bytes
of 8 bits each. The 8 bits of data appear on I/O0 - I/O7; the 16
bits of data appear on I/O0~I/O15. The A29L320A is offered in
48-ball TFBGA and 48-Pin TSOP packages. This device is
designed to be programmed in-system with the standard
system 3.3 volt VCC supply. Additional 12.0 volt VPP is not
required for in-system write or erase operations. However,
the A29L320A can also be programmed in standard EPROM
programmers.
The A29L320A has the first toggle bit, I/O6, which indicates
whether an Embedded Program or Erase is in progress, or it
is in the Erase Suspend. Besides the I/O6 toggle bit, the
A29L320A has a second toggle bit, I/O2, to indicate whether
the addressed sector is being selected for erase. The
A29L320A also offers the ability to program in the Erase
(November, 2007, Version 1.1)
( WE ) and output enable ( OE ) controls.
The device requires only a single 3.3 volt power supply for
both read and write functions. Internally generated and
regulated voltages are provided for the program and erase
operations.
The A29L320A is entirely software command set compatible
with the JEDEC single-power-supply Flash standard.
Commands are written to the command register using
standard microprocessor write timings. Register contents
serve as input to an internal state-machine that controls the
erase and programming circuitry. Write cycles also internally
latch addresses and data needed for the programming and

contents of other sectors. The A29L320A is fully erased
when shipped from the factory.
The hardware sector protection feature disables operations
for both program and erase in any combination of the
sectors of memory. This can be achieved via programming
equipment.
The Erase Suspend/Erase Resume feature enables the user
to put erase on hold for any period of time to read data from,
or program data to, any other sector that is not selected for
erasure. True background erase can thus be achieved.
The hardware RESET pin terminates any operation in
progress and resets the internal state machine to reading
array data. The RESET pin may be tied to the system reset
circuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the device,
enabling the system microprocessor to read the boot-up
firmware from the Flash memory.
The device offers two power-saving features. When
addresses have been stable for a specified amount of time,
the device enters the automatic sleep mode. The system can
also place the device into the standby mode. Power
consumption is greatly reduced in both these modes.
erase operations. Reading data out of the device is similar to
reading from other Flash or EPROM devices.
Device programming occurs by writing the proper program
command sequence. This initiates the Embedded Program
algorithm - an internal algorithm that automatically times the
program pulse widths and verifies proper program margin.
Device erasure occurs by executing the proper erase
command sequence. This initiates the Embedded Erase
algorithm - an internal algorithm that automatically
preprograms the array (if it is not already programmed)
before executing the erase operation. During erase, the
device automatically times the erase pulse widths and
verifies proper erase margin. The Unlock Bypass mode
facilitates faster programming times by requiring only two
write cycles to program data instead of four.
The host system can detect whether a program or erase
operation is complete by observing the RY / BY pin, or by
reading the I/O7 ( Data Polling) and I/O6 (toggle) status bits.
After a program or erase cycle has been completed, the
device is ready to read array data or accept another
command.
The sector erase architecture allows memory sectors to be
erased and reprogrammed without affecting the data

Characteristics" section contains timing specification tables
and timing diagrams for write operations.
Word/Byte Configuration
The BYTE pin determines whether the I/O pins I/O15-I/O0
operate in the byte or word configuration. If the BYTE pin is
set at logic ”1”, the device is in word configuration, I/O15-I/O0
are active and controlled by CE and OE .
Program and Erase Operation Status
During an erase or program operation, the system may
check the status of the operation by reading the status bits
on I/O7 - I/O0. Standard read cycle timings and ICC read
specifications apply. Refer to "Write Operation Status" for
more information, and to each AC Characteristics section for
timing diagrams.
If the BYTE pin is set at logic “0”, the device is in byte
configuration, and only I/O0-I/O7 are active and controlled by
CE and OE . I/O8-I/O14 are tri-stated, and I/O15 pin is used
as an input for the LSB(A-1) address function.
Standby Mode
Requirements for Reading Array Data
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.
To read array data from the outputs, the system must drive
the CE and OE pins to VIL. CE is the power control and
selects the device. OE is the output control and gates array
data to the output pins. WE should remain at VIH all the time
during read operation. The BYTE pin determines whether
the device outputs array data in words and bytes. The
internal state machine is set for reading array data upon
device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This ensures that
no spurious alteration of the memory content occurs during
the power transition. No command is necessary in this mode
to obtain array data. Standard microprocessor read cycles
that assert valid addresses on the device address inputs
produce valid data on the device data outputs. The device
remains enabled for read access until the command register
contents are altered.
See "Reading Array Data" for more information. Refer to the
AC Read Operations table for timing specifications and to the
Read Operations Timings diagram for the timing waveforms,
lCC1 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active
current specification for reading array data.
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the CE &
RESET pins are both held at VCC ± 0.3V. (Note that this is a
more restricted voltage range than VIH.) If CE and RESET
are held at VIH, but not within VCC ± 0.3V, the device will be
in the standby mode, but the standby current will be greater.
The device requires the standard access time (tCE) 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.
ICC3 and ICC4 in the DC Characteristics tables represent the
standby current specification.
Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device energy
consumption. The device automatically enables this mode
when addresses remain stable for tACC +30ns. 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. ICC4 in the
DC Characteristics table represents the automatic sleep
mode current specification.
Writing Commands/Command Sequences
To write a command or command sequence (which includes
programming data to the device and erasing sectors of
memory), the system must drive WE and CE to VIL, and
OE to VIH. For program operations, the BYTE pin
determines whether the device accepts program data in
bytes or words, Refer to “Word/Byte Configuration” for more
information. The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to
facilitate faster programming. Once the device enters the
Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required to
program a word or byte, instead of four. The “
Word / Byte Program Command Sequence” section has
details on programming data to the device using both
standard and Unlock Bypass command sequence. An erase
operation can erase one sector, multiple sectors, or the
entire device. The Sector Address Tables indicate the
address range that each sector occupies. A "sector address"
consists of the address inputs required to uniquely select a
sector. See the "Command Definitions" section for details on
erasing a sector or the entire chip, or suspending/resuming
the erase operation.
After the system writes the autoselect command sequence,
the device enters the autoselect mode. The system can then
read autoselect codes from the internal register (which is
separate from the memory array) on I/O7 - I/O0. Standard
read cycle timings apply in this mode. Refer to the
"Autoselect Mode" and "Autoselect Command Sequence"
sections for more information.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active
current specification for the write mode. The "AC
(November, 2007, Version 1.1)
Output Disable Mode
When the OE input is at VIH, output from the device is
disabled. The output pins are placed in the high impedance
state.
RESET : Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET pin provides a hardware method of resetting
the device to reading array data. When the system drives the
RESET pin low for at least a period of tRP, the device
immediately terminates any operation in progress, tristates
all data output pins, and ignores all read/write attempts 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.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET pulse.
When RESET is held at VSS ± 0.3V, the device draws
CMOS standby current (ICC4 ). If RESET is held at VIL but not
within VSS ± 0.3V, the standby current will be greater.

RY/ BY to determine whether the reset operation is
complete. If RESET is asserted when a program or erase
operation is not executing (RY/ BY pin is “1”), the reset
operation is completed within a time of tREADY (not during
Embedded Algorithms). The system can read data tRH after
the RESET pin return to VIH.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET
parameters and diagram.
The RESET pin may be tied to the system reset circuitry. A
system reset would thus also reset the Flash memory,
enabling the system to read the boot-up firmware from the
Flash memory.
If RESET is asserted during a program or erase operation,
the RY/ BY pin remains a “0” (busy) until the internal reset
operation is complete, which requires a time tREADY (during
Embedded Algorithms). The system can thus monitor

protection, the sector address must appear on the
appropriate highest order address bits. Refer to the
corresponding Sector Address Tables. The Command
Definitions table shows the remaining address bits that are
don't care. When all necessary bits have been set as
required, the programming equipment may then read the
corresponding identifier code on I/O7 - I/O0.To access the
autoselect codes in-system, the host system can issue the
autoselect command via the command register, as shown in
the Command Definitions table. This method does not
require VID. See "Command Definitions" for details on using
the autoselect mode.
Autoselect Mode
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device
identification, and sector protection verification, through
identifier codes output on I/O7 - I/O0. This mode is primarily
intended for programming equipment to automatically match
a device to be programmed with its corresponding
programming algorithm. However, the autoselect codes can
also be accessed in-system through the command register.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect mode
requires VID (8.5V to 10.5V) on address pin A9. Address pins
A6, A1, and A0 must be as shown in Autoselect Codes (High
Voltage Method) table. In addition, when verifying sector

Sector Protection/Unprotection
Write Pulse "Glitch" Protection
The hardware sector protection feature disables both
program and erase operations in any sector. The hardware
sector unprotection feature re-enables both program and
erase operations in previously protected sectors.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or
unprotected. See “Autoselect Mode” for details.
Sector protection / unprotection can be implemented via two
methods. The primary method requires VID on the
RESET pin only, and can be implemented either in-system or
via programming equipment. Figure 2 shows the algorithm
and the Sector Protect / Unprotect Timing Diagram illustrates
the timing waveforms for this feature. This method uses
standard microprocessor bus cycle timing. For sector
unprotect, all unprotected sectors must first be protected
prior to the first sector unprotect write cycle. The alternate
method for protection and unprotection is by software sector
block protect/unprotect command. See Figure 2 for
Command Flow.
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or
unprotected. See "Autoselect Mode" for details.
Noise pulses of less than 5ns (typical) on OE , CE or WE
do not initiate a write cycle.
Logical Inhibit
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE =VIL,
CE = VIH or WE = VIH. To initiate a write cycle, CE and
WE must be a logical zero while OE is a logical one.
Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE = CE = 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
reading array data on the initial power-up.
Temporary Sector Unprotect
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previous
protected sectors to change data in-system. The Sector
Unprotect mode is activated by setting the RESET pin to VID.
During this mode, formerly protected sectors can be
programmed or erased by selecting the sector addresses.
Once VID is removed from the RESET pin, all the previously
protected sectors are protected again. Figure 1 shows the
algorithm, and the Temporary Sector Unprotect diagram
shows the timing waveforms, for this feature.
Hardware Data Protection
The requirement of command unlocking sequence for
programming or erasing provides data protection against
inadvertent writes (refer to the Command Definitions table).
In addition, the following hardware data protection measures
prevent accidental erasure or programming, which might
otherwise be caused by spurious system level signals during
VCC power-up transitions, or from system noise. The device
is powered up to read array data to avoid accidentally writing
data to the array.

ready to read array data. The system can read CFI
information at the addresses given in Table 5-8. In word
mode, the upper address bits (A7-MSB) must be all zeros.
To terminate reading CFI data, the system must write the
reset command.
The system can also write the CFI query command when the
device is in the autoselect mode. The device enters the CFI
query mode, and the system can read CFI data at the
addresses given in Table 5-8. The system must write the
reset command to return the device to the autoselect mode.
Common Flash Memory Interface (CFI)
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification outlines
device and host system software interrogation handshake,
which allows specific vendor-specified software algorithms to
be used for entire families of devices. Software support can
then be device-independent, JEDEC ID-independent, and
forward- and backward-compatible for the specified flash
device families. Flash vendors can standardize their existing
interface for long-term compatibility.
This device enters the CFI Query mode when the system
writes the CFI Query command, 98h, to address 55h in word
mode (or address AAh in byte mode), any time the device is

Command Definitions
Autoselect Command Sequence
Writing specific address and data commands or sequences
into the command register initiates device operations. The
Command Definitions table defines the valid register
command sequences. Writing incorrect address and data
values or writing them in the improper sequence resets the
device to reading array data.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE or CE ,
whichever happens later. All data is latched on the rising
edge of WE or CE , whichever happens first. Refer to the
appropriate timing diagrams in the "AC Characteristics"
section.
The autoselect command sequence allows the host system to
access the manufacturer and devices codes, and determine
whether or not a sector is protected. The Command
Definitions table shows the address and data requirements.
This method is an alternative to that shown in the Autoselect
Codes (High Voltage Method) table, which is intended for
PROM programmers and requires VID on address bit A9.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by writing two
unlock cycles, followed by the autoselect command. The
device then enters the autoselect mode, and the system may
read at any address any number of times, without initiating
another command sequence.
A read cycle at address XX00h retrieves the manufacturer
code and another read cycle at XX11h retrieves the
continuation code. A read cycle at address XX01h returns the
device code. A read cycle containing a sector address (SA)
and the address 02h in returns 01h if that sector is protected,
or 00h if it is unprotected. Refer to the Sector Address tables
for valid sector addresses.
The system must write the reset command to exit the
autoselect mode and return to reading array data.
Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data after
device power-up. No commands are required to retrieve
data. The device is also ready to read array data after
completing an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase
algorithm. After the device accepts an Erase Suspend
command, the device enters the Erase Suspend mode. The
system can read array data using the standard read timings,
except that if it reads at an address within erase-suspended
sectors, the device outputs status data. After completing a
programming operation in the Erase Suspend mode, the
system may once again read array data with the same
exception. See "Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands"
for more information on this mode.
The system must issue the reset command to re-enable the
device for reading array data if I/O5 goes high, or while in the
autoselect mode. See the "Reset Command" section, next.
See also "Requirements for Reading Array Data" in the
"Device Bus Operations" section for more information. The
Read Operations table provides the read parameters, and
Read Operation Timings diagram shows the timing diagram.
Word/Byte Program Command Sequence
The system may program the device by word or byte,
depending on the state of the BYTE pin. Programming is a
four-bus-cycle operation. The program command sequence is
initiated by writing two unlock write cycles, followed by the
program set-up command. The program address and data are
written next, which in turn initiate the Embedded Program
algorithm. The system is not required to provide further
controls or timings. The device automatically provides
internally generated program pulses and verify the
programmed cell margin. Table 9 shows the address and data
requirements for the byte program command sequence.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the
device then returns to reading array data and addresses are
longer latched. The system can determine the status of the
program operation by using I/O7, I/O6, or RY/ BY . See “White
Operation Status” for information on these status bits.
Any commands written to the device during the Embedded
Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a hardware reset
immediately terminates the programming operation. The Byte
Program command sequence should be reinitiated once the
device has reset to reading array data, to ensure data
integrity.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across sector
boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed from a “0” back to a
“1”. Attempting to do so may halt the operation and set I/O5 to
“1”, or cause the Data Polling algorithm to indicate the
operation was successful. However, a succeeding read will
show that the data is still “0”. Only erase operations can
convert a “0” to a “1”.
Reset Command
Writing the reset command to the device resets the device to
reading array data. Address bits are don't care for this
command. The reset command may be written between the
sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the device to reading array data.
Once erasure begins, however, the device ignores reset
commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence
cycles in a program command sequence before
programming begins. This resets the device to reading array
data (also applies to programming in Erase Suspend mode).
Once programming begins, however, the device ignores
reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence
cycles in an autoselect command sequence. Once in the
autoselect mode, the reset command must be written to
return to reading array data (also applies to autoselect during
Erase Suspend).
If I/O5 goes high during a program or erase operation, writing
the reset command returns the device to reading array data
(also applies during Erase Suspend).

Chip Erase Command Sequence
Chip erase is a six-bus-cycle operation. The chip erase
command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock cycles,
followed by a set-up command. Two additional unlock write
cycles are then followed by the chip erase command, which
in turn invokes the Embedded Erase algorithm. The device
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
Definitions table shows the address and data requirements
for the chip erase command sequence.
Any commands written to the chip during the Embedded
Erase algorithm are ignored. The system can determine the
status of the erase operation by using I/O7, I/O6, or I/O2. See
"Write Operation Status" for information on these status bits.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the device
returns to reading array data and addresses are no longer
latched.
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. See

Sector Erase Command Sequence
Sector erase is a six-bus-cycle operation. The sector erase
command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock cycles,
followed by a set-up command. Two additional unlock write
cycles are then followed by the address of the sector to be
erased, and the sector erase command. The Command
Definitions table shows the address and data requirements
for the sector erase command sequence.
The device does not require the system to preprogram the
memory prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm
automatically programs and verifies the sector 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 timeout of 50μs begins. 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 sectors may be from one sector
to all sectors. The time between these additional cycles must
be less than 50μs, otherwise the last address and command
might not be accepted, and erasure may begin. It is
recommended that processor interrupts be disabled during
this time to ensure all commands are accepted. The
interrupts can be re-enabled after the last Sector Erase
command is written. If the time between additional sector
erase commands can be assumed to be less than 50μs, the
system need not monitor I/O3. Any command other than
Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the time-out period
resets the device to reading array data. The system must
rewrite the command sequence and any additional sector
addresses and commands.
Note : See the appropriate Command Definitions table for
program command sequence.
Figure 3. Program Operation
Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program
bytes or words to the device faster than using the standard
program command sequence. The unlock bypass command
sequence is initiated by first writing two unlock cycles. This is
followed by a third write cycle containing the unlock bypass
command, 20h. The device then enters the unlock bypass
mode. A two-cycle unlock bypass program command
sequence is all that is required to program in this mode. The
first cycle in this sequence contains the unlock bypass
program command, A0h; the second cycle contains the
program address and data. Additional data is programmed in
the same manner. This mode dispenses with the initial two
unlock cycles required in the standard program command
sequence, resulting in faster total programming time. Table 9
shows the requirements for the command sequence.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock Bypass
Program and Unlock Bypass Reset commands are valid. To

The system can monitor I/O3 to determine if the sector erase
timer has timed out. (See the " I/O3: Sector Erase Timer"
section.) The time-out begins from the rising edge of the final
WE pulse in the command sequence.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the Erase
Suspend command is valid. All other commands are ignored.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the device
returns to reading array data and addresses are no longer
latched. The system can determine the status of the erase
operation by using I/O7, I/O6, or I/O2. Refer to "Write
Operation Status" for information on these status bits.
4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to
the Erase/Program Operations tables in the "AC
Characteristics" section for parameters, and to the Sector
Erase Operations Timing diagram for timing waveforms.
The system must write the Erase Resume command
(address bits are "don't care") to exit the erase suspend
mode and continue the sector erase operation. Further writes
of the Resume command are ignored. Another Erase
Suspend command can be written after the device has
resumed erasing.

Command
Sequence
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. This
command is valid only during the sector erase operation,
including the 50μs time-out period during the sector erase
command sequence. The Erase Suspend command is
ignored if written during the chip erase operation or
Embedded Program algorithm. Writing the Erase Suspend
command during the Sector Erase time-out immediately
terminates the time-out period and suspends the erase
operation. Addresses are "don't cares" when writing the
Erase Suspend command.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during a
sector erase operation, the device requires a maximum of
20μs to suspend the erase operation. However, 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 system
can read array data from or program data to any sector not
selected for erasure. (The device "erase suspends" all
sectors selected for erasure.) Normal read and write timings
and command definitions apply. Reading at any address
within erase-suspended sectors produces status data on I/O7
- I/O0. The system can use I/O7, or I/O6 and I/O2 together, to
determine if a sector is actively erasing or is erasesuspended. See "Write Operation Status" for information on
these status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete,
the system can once again read array data within nonsuspended sectors. The system can determine the status of
the program operation using the I/O7 or I/O6 status bits, just
as in the standard program operation. See "Write Operation
Status" for more information.
The system may also write the autoselect command
sequence when the device is in the Erase Suspend mode.
The device allows reading autoselect codes even at
addresses within erasing sectors, since the codes are not
stored in the memory array. When the device exits the
autoselect mode, the device reverts to the Erase Suspend
mode, and is ready for another valid operation. See
"Autoselect Command Sequence" for more information.

Write Operation Status
Several bits, I/O2, I/O3, I/O5, I/O6, I/O7, RY/ BY are provided in
the A29L320A to determine the status of a write operation.
Table 10 and the following subsections describe the
functions of these status bits. I/O7, I/O6 and RY/ BY each
offer a method for determining whether a program or erase
operation is complete or in progress. These three bits are
discussed first.
START
Read I/O7-I/O0
Address = VA
I/O7: Data Polling
The Data Polling bit, I/O7, indicates to the host system
whether an Embedded Algorithm is in progress or completed,
or whether the device is in Erase Suspend. Data Polling is
Yes
I/O7 = Data ?
valid after the rising edge of the final WE pulse in the
program or erase command sequence.
During the Embedded Program algorithm, the device outputs
on I/O7 the complement of the datum programmed to I/O7.
This I/O7 status also applies to programming during Erase
Suspend. When the Embedded Program algorithm is
complete, the device outputs the datum programmed to I/O7.
The system must provide the program address to read valid
status information on I/O7. If a program address falls within a
protected sector, Data Polling on I/O7 is active for
approximately 2μs, then the device returns to reading array
data.
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data Polling
produces a "0" on I/O7. When the Embedded Erase algorithm
is complete, or if the device enters the Erase Suspend mode,
Data Polling produces a "1" on I/O7.This is analogous to the
complement/true datum output described for the Embedded
Program algorithm: the erase function changes all the bits in
a sector to "1"; prior to this, the device outputs the
"complement," or "0." The system must provide an address
within any of the sectors selected for erasure to read valid
status information on I/O7.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors
selected for erasing are protected, Data Polling on I/O7 is
active for approximately 100μs, then the device 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.
When the system detects I/O7 has changed from the
complement to true data, it can read valid data at I/O7 - I/O0
on the following read cycles. This is because I/O7 may
change asynchronously with I/O0 - I/O6 while Output Enable
( OE ) is asserted low. The Data Polling Timings (During
Embedded Algorithms) figure in the "AC Characteristics"
section illustrates this. Table 10 shows the outputs for Data

Note :
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector
erase operation, a valid address is an address within any
sector selected for erasure. During chip erase, a valid
address is any non-protected sector address.
2. I/O7 should be rechecked even if I/O5 = "1" because
I/O7 may change simultaneously with I/O5.

RY/ BY : Read/ Busy
I/O2: Toggle Bit II
The RY/ BY is a dedicated, open-drain output pin that
indicates whether an Embedded algorithm is in progress or
complete. The RY/ BY status is valid after the rising edge of
the final WE pulse in the command sequence. Since RY/ BY
is an open-drain output, several RY/ BY pins can be tied
together in parallel with a pull-up resistor to VCC.
If the output is low (Busy), the device is actively erasing or
programming. (This includes programming in the Erase
Suspend mode.) If the output is high (Ready), the device is
ready to read array data (including during the Erase Suspend
mode), or is in the standby mode.
Table 10 shows the outputs for RY/ BY . Refer to “ RESET
Timings”, “Timing Waveforms for Program Operation” and
“Timing Waveforms for Chip/Sector Erase Operation” for
more information.
I/O6: Toggle Bit I
Toggle Bit I on I/O6 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, 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 I/O6 to toggle.
(The system may use either OE or CE to control the read
cycles.) When the operation is complete, I/O6 stops toggling.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors
selected for erasing are protected, I/O6 toggles for
approximately 100μs, 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 I/O6 and I/O2 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), I/O6 toggles. When the device
enters the Erase Suspend mode, I/O6 stops toggling.
However, the system must also use I/O2 to determine which
sectors are erasing or erase-suspended. Alternatively, the
system can use I/O7 (see the subsection on " I/O7 : Data
Polling").
If a program address falls within a protected sector, I/O6
toggles for approximately 2μs after the program command
sequence is written, then returns to reading array data.
I/O6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program mode,
and stops toggling once the Embedded Program algorithm is
complete.
The Write Operation Status table shows the outputs for
Toggle Bit I on I/O6. Refer to Figure 6 for the toggle bit
algorithm, and to the Toggle Bit Timings figure in the "AC
Characteristics" section for the timing diagram. The I/O2 vs.
I/O6 figure shows the differences between I/O2 and I/O6 in
graphical form. See also the subsection on " I/O2: Toggle Bit
II".
(November, 2007, Version 1.1)
26
The "Toggle Bit II" on I/O2, when used with I/O6, 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.
I/O2 toggles when the system reads at addresses within those
sectors that have been selected for erasure. (The system may
use either OE or CE to control the read cycles.) But I/O2
cannot distinguish whether the sector is actively erasing or is
erase-suspended. I/O6, 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 10 to compare outputs for I/O2 and I/O6.
Figure 6 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart form, and
the section " I/O2: Toggle Bit II" explains the algorithm. See
also the " I/O6: Toggle Bit I" subsection. Refer to the Toggle
Bit Timings figure for the toggle bit timing diagram. The I/O2
vs. I/O6 figure shows the differences between I/O2 and I/O6 in
graphical form.
Reading Toggle Bits I/O6, I/O2
Refer to Figure 6 for the following discussion. Whenever the
system initially begins reading toggle bit status, it must read
I/O7 - I/O0 at least twice in a row to determine whether a
toggle bit is toggling. Typically, a 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 erase operation. The system can
read array data on I/O7 - I/O0 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 I/O5 is high (see the section
on I/O5). 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 I/O5 went high. If the toggle bit
is no longer toggling, the device has successfully completed
the program or erase 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 I/O5 has not gone high. The
system may continue to monitor the toggle bit and I/O5
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 (top of Figure
6).
I/O5: Exceeded Timing Limits
I/O5 indicates whether the program or erase time has
exceeded a specified internal pulse count limit. Under these
conditions I/O5 produces a "1." This is a failure condition that
indicates the program or erase cycle was not successfully
completed.
AMIC Technology, Corp.
A29L320A Series
The I/O5 failure condition may appear if the system tries to
program a "1 "to a location that is 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 operation has exceeded the timing limits, I/O5
produces a "1."
Under both these conditions, the system must issue the reset
command to return the device to reading array data.
START
Read I/O7-I/O0
I/O3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the system
may read I/O3 to determine whether or not an erase
operation 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 is
complete, I/O3 switches from "0" to "1." The system may
ignore I/O3 if the system can guarantee that the time
between additional sector erase commands will always be
less than 50μs. See also the "Sector Erase Command
Sequence" section.
After the sector erase command sequence is written, the
system should read the status on I/O7 ( Data Polling) or I/O6
(Toggle Bit 1) to ensure the device has accepted the
command sequence, and then read I/O3. If I/O3 is "1", the
internally controlled erase cycle has begun; all further
commands (other than Erase Suspend) are ignored until the
erase operation is complete. If I/O3 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 I/O3 prior to and following each
subsequent sector erase command. If I/O3 is high on the
second status check, the last command might not have been
accepted. Table 10 shows the outputs for I/O3.

Excludes 00h programming prior to erasure
Excludes system-level overhead (Note 4)
Notes:
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 3.0V VCC, 100,000 cycles. Additionally,
programming typically assumes checkerboard pattern..
2. The typical chip programming time is considerably less than the maximum chip programming time listed, since most bytes
program faster than the maximum byte program time listed. If the maximum byte program time given is exceeded, only then
does the device set I/O5 = 1. See the section on I/O5 for further information.
3. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00h before erasure.
4. System-level overhead is the time required to execute the four-bus-cycle command sequence for programming. See Table 9
for further information on command definitions.
5. The device has a guaranteed minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 100,000 cycles.
