GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29F040 is a 4 Mbit, 5.0 Volt-only Flash memory
organized as 512 Kbytes of 8 bits each. The Am29F040
is offered in a 32-pin package. This device is designed
to be programmed in-system with the standard system
5.0 V V CC supply. A 12.0 V V PP is not required for
write or erase operations. The device can also be
reprogrammed in standard EPROM programmers.
The standard Am29F040 offers access times between
55 ns and 150 ns, allowing operation of high-speed
microprocessors without wait states. To eliminate bus
contention the device has separate chip enable (CE),
write enable (WE) and output enable (OE) controls.
The Am29F040 is entirely 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
which controls the erase and programming circuitry.
Write cycles also internally latch addresses and data
needed for the programming and erase operations.
Reading data out of the device is similar to reading
from 12.0 Volt Flash or EPROM devices.
The Am29F040 is programmed by executing the program command sequence. This will invoke the Embedded Program Algorithm which is an internal algorithm
that automatically times the program pulse widths and
verifies proper cell margin. Typically, each sector can
be programmed and verified in less than one second.
Erase is accomplished by executing the erase command sequence. This will invoke the Embedded Erase
Algorithm which is 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 cell margin.
Publication# 17113 Rev: E Amendment/0
Issue Date: November 1996
Any individual sector is typically erased and verified in
1.0 seconds (if already completely preprogrammed).
This device also features a sector erase architecture.
The sector mode allows for 64K byte blocks of memory
to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting
other blocks. The Am29F040 is erased when shipped
from the factory.
Flexible Sector-Erase Architecture
■ Eight 64 Kbyte sectors
■ Individual-sector, multiple-sector, or bulk-erase
capability
■ Individual or multiple-sector protection is user
definable
The device features single 5.0 V power supply operation for both read and write functions. Internally generated and regulated voltages are provided for the
program and erase operations. A low VCC detector
automatically inhibits write operations on the loss of
power. The end of program or erase is detected by Data
Polling of DQ7 or by the Toggle Bit feature on DQ6.
Once the end of a program or erase cycle has been
completed, the device internally resets to the read
mode.
AMD’s Flash technology combines years of EPROM
and E2PROM experience to produce the highest levels
of quality, reliability and cost effectiveness. The
Am29F040 memory electrically erases the entire chip
or all bits within a sector simultaneously via FowlerNordheim tunneling. The bytes are programmed one
byte at a time using the EPROM programming
mechanism of hot electron injection.

Notes:
1. Manufacturer and device codes may also be accessed via a command register write sequence. Refer to Tables 2 and 4.
2. Refer to Table 3 for valid PD (Program Data) during a write operation.
3. Refer to the section on Sector Protection.
4. WE can be VIL if OE is VIL, OE at VIH initiates the write operations.
Read Mode
Output Disable
The Am29F040 has two control functions which must
be satisfied in order to obtain data at the outputs. CE is
the power control and should be used for device selection. OE is the output control and should be used to
gate data to the output pins if a device is selected.
With the OE input at a logic high level (VIH), output from
the device is disabled. This will cause the output pins to
be in a high impedance state.
Address access time (tACC) is equal to the delay from
stable addresses to valid output data. The chip enable
access time (tCE) is the delay from stable addresses and
stable CE to valid data at the output pins. The output enable access time is the delay from the falling edge of OE
to valid data at the output pins (assuming the addresses
have been stable for at least tACC–tOE time).
Standby Mode
The Am29F040 has two standby modes, a CMOS
standby mode (CE input held at VCC ± 0.5 V), when the
current consumed is less than 5 µA; and a TTL standby
mode (CE is held at VIH) when the current required is
reduced to approximately 1 mA. In the standby mode
the outputs are in a high impedance state, independent
of the OE input.
If the device is deselected during erasure or programming, the device will draw active current until the
operation is completed.
Autoselect
The autoselect mode allows the reading out of a binary
code from the device and will identify its manufacturer
and type. This mode is intended for use by programming
equipment for the purpose of automatically matching the
device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algorithm. This mode is functional over the
entire temperature range of the device.
To activate this mode, the programming equipment
must force VID (11.5 V to 12.5 V) on address pin A9.
Two identifier bytes may then be sequenced from the
device outputs by toggling address A0 from VIL to VIH.
All addresses are don’t cares except A0, A1, and A6.
The manufacturer and device codes may also be read
via the command register, for instances when the
Am29F040 is erased or programmed in a system without access to high voltage on the A9 pin. The command
sequence is illustrated in Table 4 (refer to Autoselect
Command section).
Byte 0 (A0 = VIL) represents the manufacturer’s code
(AMD = 01H) and byte 1 (A0 = VIH) the device identifier
code (Am29F040 = A4H). All identifiers for manufacturer and device exhibit odd parity with the MSB (DQ7)
defined as the parity bit. See Table 2.

Write
Device erasure and programming are accomplished
via the command register. The contents of the register
serve as inputs to the internal state machine. The state
machine outputs dictate the function of the device.
The command register itself does not occupy any
addressable memory location. The register is a latch
used to store the commands, along with the address
and data information needed to execute the command.
The command register is written by bringing WE to VIL,
while CE is at VIL and OE is at VIH. Addresses are
latched on the falling edge of WE or CE, whichever
happens later; while data is latched on the rising edge
of WE or CE, whichever happens first. Standard
microprocessor write timings are used.
Refer to AC Write Characteristics and the Erase/
Programming Waveforms for specific timing parameters.
8
The Am29F040 features hardware sector protection.
This feature will disable both program and erase
operations in any number of sectors (0 through 8). The
sector protect feature is enabled using programming
equipment at the user’s site. The device is shipped with
all sectors unprotected. Alternatively, AMD may program and protect sectors in the factory prior to shipping
the device (AMD’s ExpressFlash™ Service).
It is also possible to determine if a sector is protected
in the system by writing an Autoselect command.
Performing a read operation at the address location
XX02H, where the higher order addresses (A16,
A17, and A18) are used to select the desired sector.
The device produces a logical “1” at DQ0 for a protected sector and a logical “0” for an unprotected
sector. See Table 2 for Autoselect codes.
Sector Unprotect
The Am29F040 also features a sector unprotect mode
so that a protected sector may be unprotected to
incorporate any changes in the code. The sector unprotect is enabled using programming equipment at the
user’s site.
Command Definitions
Device operations are selected by writing specific address and data sequences into the command register.
Writing incorrect address and data values or writing
them in the improper sequence will reset the device to
read mode. Table 4 defines the valid register command
sequences. Note that the Erase Suspend (B0) and
Erase Resume (30) commands are valid only while the
Sector Erase operation is in progress. Either of the two
reset commands will reset the device (when applicable).

Notes:
1. Address bits A15, A16, A17, and A18 = X = Don’t Care for all address commands except for Program Address (PA), Sector
Address (SA), Read Address (RA), and autoselect sector protect verify.
2. Bus operations are defined in Table 1.
3. RA = Address of the memory location to be read.
PA = Address of the memory location to be programmed. Addresses are latched on the falling edge of the WE pulse.
SA = Address of the sector to be erased. The combination of A18, A17, A16 will uniquely select any sector (see Table 3).
4. RD = Data read from location RA during read operation.
PD = Data to be programmed at location PA. Data is latched on the rising edge of WE.
5. Read from non-erasing sectors is allowed in the Erase Suspend mode.
Read/Reset Command
The read or reset operation is initiated by writing the
read/reset command sequence into the command register. Microprocessor read cycles retrieve array data
from the memory. The device remains enabled for
reads until the command register contents are altered.
The device will automatically power-up in the read/
reset state. In this case, a command sequence is not
required to read data. Standard microprocessor read
cycles will retrieve array data. This default value ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory content
occurs during the power transition. Refer to the AC
Read Characteristics and Waveforms for the specific
timing parameters.
Autoselect Command
Flash memories are intended for use in applications
where the local CPU alters memory contents. As such,
manufacture and device codes must be accessible
while the device resides in the target system. PROM
programmers typically access the signature codes by
raising A9 to a high voltage. However, multiplexing high
voltage onto the address lines is not generally desired
system design practice.
The device contains a command autoselect operation
to supplement traditional PROM programming methodology. The operation is initiated by writing the autoselect command sequence into the command register.
Following the command write, a read cycle from address XX00H retrieves the manufacture code of 01H. A
read cycle from address XX01H returns the device
code A4H (see Table 2). All manufacturer and device
codes will exhibit odd parity with the MSB (DQ7)
defined as the parity bit.
Scanning the sector addresses (A16, A17, A18) while
(A6, A1, A0) = (0, 1, 0) will produce a logical “1” at
device output DQ0 for a protected sector.
To terminate the operation, it is necessary to write the
read/reset command sequence into the register.
Byte Programming
The device is programmed on a byte-by-byte basis.
Programming is a four bus cycle operation. There are
two “unlock” write cycles. These are followed by the
program setup command and data write cycles. Addresses are latched on the falling edge of CE or WE,
whichever happens later and the data is latched on the
rising edge of CE or WE, whichever happens first. The
Am29F040
9
rising edge of CE or WE (whichever happens first)
begins programming. Upon executing the Embedded
Program Algorithm command sequence the system is
not required to provide further controls or timings. The
device will automatically provide adequate internally
generated program pulses and verify the programmed
cell margin.
The automatic programming operation is completed
when the data on DQ7 is equivalent to data written to
this bit (see Write Operation Status section) at which
time the device returns to the read mode and addresses are no longer latched. Therefore, the device
requires that a valid address to the device be supplied
by the system at this particular instance of time. Hence,
Data Polling must be performed at the memory location
which is being programmed.
Any commands written to the chip during this period
will be ignored.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across
sector boundaries. Beware that a data “0” cannot be
programmed back to a “1”. Attempting to do so may
cause the device to exceed programming time limits
(DQ5 = 1) or result in an apparent success, according
to the data polling algorithm, but a read from reset/read
mode will show that the data is still “0”. Only erase
operations can convert “0”s to “1”s.
Figure 1 illustrates the Embedded Programming Algorithm
using typical command strings and bus operations.
Chip Erase
Chip erase is a six bus cycle operation. There are two
“unlock” write cycles. These are followed by writing the
“setup” command. Two more “unlock” write cycles are
then followed by the chip erase command.
Chip erase does not require the user to program the
device prior to erase. Upon executing the Embedded
Erase Algorithm command sequence the device automatically will program and verify the entire memory for
an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. The
chip erase is performed sequentially one sector at a
time. The system is not required to provide any controls
or timings during these operations.
The automatic erase begins on the rising edge of the
last WE pulse in the command sequence and terminates when the data on DQ7 is “1” (see Write Operation
Status section) at which time the device returns to read
the mode.
Figure 2 illustrates the Embedded Erase Algorithm
using typical command strings and bus operations.
Sector Erase
Sector erase is a six bus cycle operation. There are two
“unlock” write cycles. These are followed by writing the
“setup” command. Two more “unlock” write cycles are
then followed by the sector erase command. The sector
address (any address location within the desired sector)
is latched on the falling edge of WE, while the command
(data) is latched on the rising edge of WE. A time-out
of 80 µs from the rising edge of the last sector erase
command will initiate the sector erase command(s).
Multiple sectors may be erased concurrently by writing
the six bus cycle operations as described above. This
sequence is followed with writes of the Sector Erase
command to addresses in other sectors desired to be
concurrently erased. The time between writes must be
less than 80 µs, otherwise that command will not be accepted. It is recommended that processor interrupts be
disabled during this time to guarantee this condition.
The interrupts can be re-enabled after the last Sector
Erase command is written. A time-out of 80 µs from the
rising edge of the last WE will initiate the execution of
the Sector Erase command(s). If another falling edge of
the WE occurs within the 80 µs time-out window the
timer is reset. (Monitor DQ3 to determine if the sector
erase window is still open, see section DQ3, Sector
Erase Timer.) Any command other than Sector Erase
or Erase Suspend during this period resets the device
to read mode, ignoring the previous command string. In
that case, restart the erase on those sectors and allow
them to complete. (Refer to the Write Operation Status
section for Sector Erase Timer operation.) Loading the
sector erase buffer may be done in any sequence and
with any number of sectors (1 to 8).
Sector erase does not require the user to program the
device prior to erase. The device automatically
programs all memory locations in the sector(s) to be
erased prior to electrical erase. When erasing a sector
or sectors the remaining unselected sectors are not
affected. The system is not required to provide any
controls or timings during these operations.
The automatic sector erase begins after the 80 µs time
out from the rising edge of the WE pulse for the last
sector erase command pulse and terminates when the
data on DQ7 is “1" (see Write Operation Status section)
at which time the device returns to read mode. During
the execution of the Sector Erase command, only the
Erase Suspend and Erase Resume commands are
allowed. All other commands will be ignored. Data polling must be performed at an address within any of the
sectors being erased.
Figure 2 illustrates the Embedded Erase Algorithm
using typical command strings and bus operations.

Am29F040
Erase Suspend
The Erase Suspend command allows the user to interrupt a Sector Erase operation and then perform data
reads from a sector not being erased. This command is
applicable ONLY during the Sector Erase operation
which includes the time-out period for sector erase. The
Erase Suspend command will be ignored if written during the Chip Erase operation or Embedded Program Algorithm. Writing the Erase Suspend command during
the Sector Erase time-out results in immediate termination of the time-out period and suspension of the erase
operation.
Any other command written during the Erase Suspend mode will be ignored except the Erase Resume
command. Writing the Erase Resume command
resumes the erase operation. The addresses are
“don’t-cares” when writing the Erase Suspend or
Erase Resume command.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during
the Sector Erase operation, the device will take a maximum of 15 µs to suspend the erase operation. When
the device has entered the erase-suspended mode,
DQ7 bit will be at logic “1”, and DQ6 will stop toggling.
The user must use the address of the erasing sector for
reading DQ6 and DQ7 to determine if the erase operation has been suspended. Further writes of the Erase
Suspend command are ignored.
When the erase operation has been suspended, the
device defaults to the erase-suspend-read mode.
Reading data in this mode is the same as reading from
the standard read mode except that the data must be
read from sectors that have not been erase-suspended.
To resume the operation of Sector Erase, the Resume
command (30H) should be written. Any further writes of
the Resume command at this point will be ignored. Another Erase Suspend command can be written after the
chip has resumed erasing.

DQ7
Data Polling
The Am29F040 device features Data Polling as a
method to indicate to the host that the Embedded
Algorithms are in progress or completed. During the
Embedded Program Algorithm an attempt to read the
device produces the compliment of the data last written
to DQ7. Upon completion of the Embedded Program
Algorithm, reading the device produces the true data
last written to DQ7. During the Embedded Erase Algorithm, reading the device produces a “0” at the DQ7
output. Upon completion of the Embedded Erase Algorithm, reading the device produces a “1” at the DQ7
output. The flowchart for Data Polling (DQ7) is shown
in Figure 3.
For chip erase, the Data Polling is valid after the rising
edge of the sixth WE pulse in the six write pulse sequence. For sector erase, the Data Polling is valid after
the last rising edge of the sector erase WE pulse. Data
Polling must be performed at sector address within any
of the sectors being erased and not a protected sector.
Otherwise, the status may not be valid. Once the Embedded Algorithm operation is close to being completed, the Am29F040 data pins (DQ7) may change
asynchronously while the output enable (OE) is asserted low. This means that the device is driving status
information on DQ7 at one instant of time and then that
byte’s valid data at the next instant of time. Depending
on when the system samples the DQ7 output, it may
read the status or valid data. Even if the device has
completed the Embedded Algorithm operation and
DQ7 has a valid data, the data outputs on DQ0–DQ6
may be still invalid. The valid data on DQ0–DQ7 will be
read on the successive read attempts.
The Data Polling feature is active during the Embedded
Programming Algorithm, Embedded Erase Algorithm,
Erase Suspend, or sector erase time-out (see Table 5).
Am29F040
11
See Figure 12 for the Data Polling timing specifications
and diagrams.
DQ6
Toggle Bit
The Am29F040 also features the “Toggle Bit” as a
method to indicate to the host system that the Embedded Algorithms are in progress or completed.
During an Embedded Program or Erase Algorithm
cycle, successive attempts to read (OE toggling) data
from the device will result in DQ6 toggling between
one and zero. Once the Embedded Program or Erase
Algorithm cycle is completed, DQ6 will stop toggling
and valid data will be read on the next successive
attempts. During programming, the Toggle Bit is valid
after the rising edge of the fourth WE pulse in the four
write pulse sequence. For chip erase, the Toggle Bit
is valid after the rising edge of the sixth WE pulse in
the six write pulse sequence. For Sector erase, the
Toggle Bit is valid after the last rising edge of the
sector erase WE pulse. The Toggle Bit is active during
the sector time out.
In programming, if the sector being written to is protected, the toggle bit will toggle for about 2 µs and then
stop toggling without the data having changed. In
erase, the device will erase all the selected sectors except for the ones that are protected. If all selected sectors are protected, the chip will toggle the toggle bit for
about 100 µs and then drop back into read mode, having changed none of the data.
Either CE or OE toggling will cause the DQ6 to toggle.
See Figure 13 for the Toggle Bit timing specifications
and diagrams.
DQ5
Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ5 will indicate if the program or erase time has exceeded the specified limits (internal pulse count).
Under these conditions DQ5 will produce a “1”. This is
a failure condition which indicates that the program or
erase cycle was not successfully completed. Data Polling is the only operating function of the device under
this condition. The CE circuit will partially power down
the device under these conditions (to approximately
2 mA). The OE and WE pins will control the output
disable functions as described in Table 1.
If this failure condition occurs during sector erase operation, it specifies that a particular sector is bad and it
may not be reused, however, other sectors are still
functional and may be used for the program or erase
operation. The device must be reset to use other sectors. Write the Reset command sequence to the device,
and then execute program or erase command sequence. This allows the system to continue to use the
other active sectors in the device.
12
If this failure condition occurs during the chip erase operation, it specifies that the entire chip is bad or combination of sectors are bad.
If this failure condition occurs during the byte programming operation, it specifies that the entire sector containing that byte is bad and this sector may not be
reused, (other sectors are still functional and can be
reused).
The DQ5 failure condition may also appear if a user
tries to program a “1” to a location previously programmed to “0”. In this case the device locks out and
never completes the Embedded Algorithm operation.
Hence, the system never reads a valid data on DQ7 bit
and DQ6 never stops toggling. Once the device has exceeded timing limits, the DQ5 bit will indicate a “1”.
Please note that this is not a device failure condition
since the device was incorrectly used.
DQ3
Sector Erase Timer
After the completion of the initial sector erase command sequence the sector erase time-out will begin.
DQ3 will remain low until the time-out is complete. Data
Polling and Toggle Bit are valid after the initial sector
erase command sequence.
If Data Polling or the Toggle Bit indicates the device has
been written with a valid erase command, DQ3 may be
used to determine if the sector erase timer window is
still open. If DQ3 is high (“1”) the internally controlled
erase cycle has begun; attempts to write subsequent
commands to the device will be ignored until the erase
operation is completed as indicated by Data Polling or
Toggle Bit. If DQ3 is low (“0”), the device will accept additional sector erase commands. To insure the command has been accepted, the system software should
check the status of DQ3 prior to and following each
subsequent sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on
the second status check, the command may not have
been accepted.
Refer to Table 5, Write Operation Status.
Data Protection
The Am29F040 is designed to offer protection
against accidental erasure or programming caused
by spurious system level signals that may exist during power transitions. During power up the device
automatically resets the internal state machine in the
Read mode. Also, with its control register architecture, alteration of the memory contents only occurs
after successful completion of specific multi-bus
cycle command sequences.
The device also incorporates several features to
prevent inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC
power-up and power-down transitions or system noise.
Am29F040
Low VCC Write Inhibit
Logical Inhibit
To avoid initiation of a write cycle during VCC power-up
and power-down, the Am29F040 locks out write cycles
for VCC < VLKO (see DC Characteristics section for
voltages). When VCC < VLKO, the command register is
disabled, all internal program/erase circuits are
disabled, and the device resets to the read mode. The
Am29F040 ignores all writes until VCC > VLKO. The user
must ensure that the control pins are in the correct logic
state when VCC > VLKO to prevent unintentional writes.
Writing is 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.
Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Sector Protect
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE, CE or
WE will not initiate a write cycle.
Sectors of the Am29F040 may be hardware protected
using programming equipment at the users factory. The
protection circuitry will disable both program and erase
functions for the protected sector(s). Requests to program or erase a protected sector will be ignored by the
device.
Power-Up Write Inhibit
Power-up of the device with WE = CE = V IL and
OE = VIH will not accept commands on the rising edge
of WE. The internal state machine is automatically
reset to the read mode on power-up.

Comments
Notes:
1. 25°C, 5 V VCC, 100,000 cycles.
2. Under worst case condition of 90°C, 4.5 V VCC, 100,000 cycles.
3. System-level overhead is defined as the time required to execute the four bus cycle command necessary to program each
byte. In the preprogramming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00H before erasure.
4. The Embedded Algorithms allow for 1.8 ms byte program time. DQ5 = “1" only after a byte takes the theoretical maximum time
to program. A minimal number of bytes may require significantly more programming pulses than the typical byte. The majority
of the bytes will program within one or two pulses (7 to 14 µs). This is demonstrated by the Typical and Maximum Programming
Times listed above.
