GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29PDL128G is a 128 Mbit, 3.0 volt-only Page Mode
and Simultaneous Read/Write Flash memory device organized as 8 Mwords or 4 M double words (One word is equal
to two bytes). The device is offered in an 80-ball Fortified
BGA package. The word-wide data (x16) appears on
DQ15-DQ0; the double word mode data (x32) appears on
DQ31-DQ0. This device can be programmed in-system or in
standard EPROM programmers. A 12.0 V V PP is not required for write or erase operations.
The device offers fast page access times of 25 and 30 ns,
with corresponding random access times of 70 and 80 ns,
respectively, allowing high speed microprocessors to operate without wait states. To eliminate bus contention the device has separate chip enable (CE#), write enable (WE#)
and output enable (OE#) controls.
Simultaneous Read/Write Operation with
Zero Latency
The Simultaneous Read/Write architecture provides simultaneous operation by dividing the memory space into 4
banks, which can be considered to be four separate memory
arrays as far as certain operations are concerned. The device can improve overall system performance by allowing a
host system to program or erase in one bank, then immediately and simultaneously read from another bank with zero
latency (with 2 simultaneous operations operating at any
one time). This releases the system from waiting for the
completion of a program or erase operation, greatly improving system performance.
The device can be organized in both top and bottom sector
configurations (see Table 1).

Page Mode Features
The device is AC timing, input/output, and package compatible with 8 Mbit x16 page mode mask ROM. The page size
is 8 words or 4 double words.
After initial page access is accomplished, the page mode operation provides fast read access speed of random locations
within that page.

Standard Flash Memory Features
The device requires a single 3.0 volt power supply (2.7 V
to 3.6 V) for both read and write functions. Internally generated and regulated voltages are provided for the program
and erase operations.
The device is entirely command set compatible with the
JEDEC 42.4 single-power-supply Flash standard. Commands are written to the command register using standard
microprocessor write timing. Register contents serve as inputs 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 erase
operations. Reading data out of the device is similar to reading from other Flash or EPROM devices.
Device programming occurs by executing the program command sequence. The Unlock Bypass mode facilitates faster
programming times by requiring only two write cycles to program data instead of four. Device erasure occurs by executing the erase command sequence.
The host system can detect whether a program or erase operation is complete by reading the DQ7 (Data# Polling) and
DQ6 (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 contents of other sectors. The device is fully erased when
shipped from the factory.
Hardware data protection measures include a low VCC detector that automatically inhibits write operations during
power transitions. The hardware sector protection feature
disables both program and erase operations in any combination of sectors of memory. This can be achieved in-system
or 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 sector that is not selected for
erasure. True background erase can thus be achieved. If a
read is needed from the SecSi Sector area (One Time Program area) after an erase suspend, then the user must use
the proper command sequence to enter and exit this region.
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.
AMD’s Flash technology combined years of Flash memory
manufacturing experience to produce the highest levels of
quality, reliability and cost effectiveness. The device electrically erases all bits within a sector simultaneously via
Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is programmed using
hot electron injection.

DEVICE BUS OPERATIONS
This section describes the requirements and use of
the device bus operations, which are initiated through
the internal command register. 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 contents of the
Table 1.
register serve as inputs to the internal state machine.
The state machine outputs dictate the function of the
device. Table 1 lists the device bus operations, the inputs and control levels they require, and the resulting
output. The following subsections describe each of
these operations in further detail.

Protection” section.
Word/Double Word Configuration
The WORD# pin controls whether the device data I/O
pins operate in the word or double word configuration.
If the WORD# pin is set at VIH, the device is in double
word configuration, DQ31–DQ0 are active and controlled by CE# and OE#.
If the WORD# pin is set at VIL, the device is in word
configuration, and only data I/O pins DQ15–DQ0 are
active and controlled by CE# and OE#. The data I/O
pins DQ30–DQ16 are tri-stated, and the DQ31 pin is
used as an input for the least significant address bit
(LSB) function, which is named A-1.
Requirements for Reading Array Data
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 V IH . The WORD# pin determines
whether the device outputs array data in words or double words.
10
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. Each bank remains
enabled for read access until the command register
contents are altered.
Refer to the AC Read-Only Operations table for timing
specifications and to Figure 11 for the timing diagram.
ICC1 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active current specification for reading array data.
Random Read (Non-Page Read)
Address access time (tACC) is equal to the delay from
stable addresses to valid output data. The chip enable
access time (t CE ) is the delay from the stable addresses and stable CE# to valid data at the output inputs. The output enable access time is the delay from
the falling edge of the OE# to valid data at the output

inputs (assuming the addresses have been stable for
at least tACC–tOE time).
Page Mode Read
The device is capable of fast page mode read and is
compatible with the page mode Mask ROM read operation. This mode provides faster read access speed
for random locations within a page. The page size of
the device is 8 words, or 4 double words, with the appropriate page being selected by the higher address
bits A21–A2 and the LSB bits A1–A0 (in the double
word mode) and A1 to A-1 (in the word mode) determining the specific word/double word within that page.
This is an asynchronous operation with the microprocessor supplying the specific word or double word location.
The random or initial page access is equal to tACC or
tCE and subsequent page read accesses (as long as
the locations specified by the microprocessor falls
within that page) is equivalent to tPACC. When CE# is
deasserted and reasserted for a subsequent access,
the access time is tACC or tCE. Here again, CE# selects
the device and OE# is the output control and should
be used to gate data to the output inputs if the device
is selected. Fast page mode accesses are obtained by
keeping A21–A2 constant and changing A1 to A0 to
select the specific double word, or changing A1 to A-1
to select the specific word, within that page.

Table 3.
The device is capable of reading data from one bank
of memory while a program or erase operation is in
progress in another bank of memory (simultaneous
operation), in addition to the conventional features
(read, program, erase-suspend read, and erase-suspend program). The bank selected can be selected by
bank addresses (A21–A19) with zero latency.
The simultaneous operation can execute multi-function mode in the same bank.

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 WORD# pin determines
whether the device accepts program data in double
words or words. Refer to “Word/Double Word Configuration” for more information.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facilitate faster programming. Once a bank enters the Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required
to program a double word or word, instead of four. The
“Double Word/Word Program Command Sequence”
section has details on programming data to the device
using both standard and Unlock Bypass command sequences.

Simultaneous Operation
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sectors, or the entire device. Table 5 indicates the address
space that each sector occupies. A “bank address” is
the address bits required to uniquely select a bank.
Similarly, a “sector address” refers to the address bits
required to uniquely select a sector. The “Command
Definitions” section has details on erasing a sector or
the entire chip, or suspending/resuming the erase operation.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active current specification for the write mode. The AC
Characteristics section contains timing specification
tables and timing diagrams for write operations.

Accelerated Program Operation
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the ACC function. This function is primarily intended to allow faster manufacturing throughput at the
factory.
If the system asserts VHH on this pin, the device automatically enters the aforementioned Unlock Bypass
mode, temporarily unprotects any protected sectors,
and uses the higher voltage on the pin to reduce the
time required for program operations. The system
would use a two-cycle program command sequence
as required by the Unlock Bypass mode. Removing
VHH from the ACC pin returns the device to normal operation. Note that VHH must not be asserted on ACC
for operations other than accelerated programming, or
device damage may result.
Autoselect Functions
If 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 DQ15–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings apply in
this mode. Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autoselect Command Sequence sections for more information.
Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the device, it can place the device in the standby mode. In
this mode, current consumption is greatly reduced,
and the outputs are placed in the high impedance
state, independent of the OE# input.
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the
CE# and RESET# pins are both held at VCC ± 0.3 V.
(Note that this is a more restricted voltage range than
VIH.) If CE# and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within
VCC ± 0.3 V, the device will be in the standby mode,
but the standby current will be greater. The device requires standard access time (t CE ) for read access
when the device is in either of these standby modes,
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 in the DC Characteristics table represents the
CMOS standby current specification.
Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device energy consumption. The device automatically enables
12
this mode when addresses remain stable for tACC +
30 ns. The automatic sleep mode is independent of
the CE#, WE#, and OE# control signals. Standard address access timings provide new data when addresses are changed. While in sleep mode, output
data is latched and always available to the system.
Note that during automatic sleep mode, OE# must be
at VIH before the device reduces current to the stated
sleep mode specification. ICC5 in the DC Characteristics table represents the automatic sleep mode current
specification.
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data. When the RESET# pin is driven low for at least a period of tRP, the
device immediately terminates any operation in
progress, tristates all output pins, and ignores all
read/write commands for the duration of the RESET#
pulse. The device also resets the internal state machine to reading array data. The operation that was interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is
ready to accept another command sequence, to ensure data integrity.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET#
pulse. When RESET# is held at VSS±0.3 V, the device
draws CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is
held at VIL but not within VSS±0.3 V, the standby current will be greater.
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 of t READY (during Embedded Algorithms). The
system can thus monitor 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 returns to VIH.
Refer to the AC Characteristics tables for RESET# parameters and to Figure 13 for the timing diagram.
Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is
disabled. The output pins (except for RY/BY#) are
placed in the high impedance state.

Autoselect Mode
When using programming equipment, the autoselect
mode requires VID on address pin A9. Address pins
must be as shown in Table 7. In addition, when verifying sector protection, the sector address must appear
on the appropriate highest order address bits (see
Table 5). Table 7 shows the remaining address bits
that are don’t care. When all necessary bits have been
set as required, the programming equipment may then

To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host
system can issue the autoselect command via the
command register, as shown in Tables 14 and 16. This
method does not require VID. Refer to the Autoselect
Command Sequence section for more information.

read the corresponding identifier code on DQ7–DQ0.
However, the autoselect codes can also be accessed
in-system through the command register, for instances
when the device is erased or programmed in a system
without access to high voltage on the A9 pin. The
command sequence is illustrated in Tables 14 and 16.
Note that if a Bank Address (BA) on address bits A21,
A20, and A19 is asserted during the third write cycle of
the autoselect command, the host system can read
autoselect data that bank and then immediately read
array data from the other bank, without exiting the autoselect mode.
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device identification, and sector protection verification,
through identifier codes output on DQ7–DQ0. This
mode is primarily intended for programming equipment to automatically match a device to be programmed with its corresponding programm ing
algorithm. However, the autoselect codes can also be
accessed in-system through the command register.

SECTOR PROTECTION
The Am29PDL128G features several levels of sector
protection, which can disable both the program and
erase operations in certain sectors or sector groups:
Persistent Sector Protection
A command sector protection method that replaces
the old 12 V controlled protection method.
Password Sector Protection
A highly sophisticated protection method that requires
a password before changes to certain sectors or sector groups are permitted
WP# Hardware Protection
A write protect pin that can prevent program or erase
operations in sectors 0, 1, 268, and 269.
All parts default to operate in the Persistent Sector
Protection mode. The customer must then choose if
the Persistent or Password Protection method is most
desirable. There are two one-time programmable
non-volatile bits that define which sector protection
method will be used. If the customer decides to continue using the Persistent Sector Protection method,
they must set the Persistent Sector Protection
Mode Locking Bit. This will permanently set the part
to operate only using Persistent Sector Protection. If
July 29, 2002
the customer decides to use the password method,
they must set the Password Mode Locking Bit. This
will permanently set the part to operate only using
password sector protection.
It is important to remember that setting either the Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit or the
Password Mode Locking Bit permanently selects
the protection mode. It is not possible to switch between the two methods once a locking bit has been
set. It is important that one mode is explicitly selected when the device is first programmed, rather
than relying on the default mode alone. This is so
that it is not possible for a system program or virus to
later set the Password Mode Locking Bit, which would
cause an unexpected shift from the default Persistent
Sector Protection Mode into the Password Protection
Mode.
The WP# Hardware Protection feature is always available, independent of the software managed protection
method chosen.
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected.
AMD offers the option of programming and protecting
sectors at the factory prior to shipping the device
through AMD’s ExpressFlash™ Service. Contact an
AMD representative for details.
Am29PDL128G

P R E L I M I N A R Y
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or unprotected. See Autoselect Mode for details.
Persistent Sector Protection
The Persistent Sector Protection method replaces the
old 12 V controlled protection method while at the
same time enhancing flexibility by providing three different sector protection states:
■ Persistently Locked—A sector is protected and
cannot be changed.
■ Dynamically Locked—The sector is protected and
can be changed by a simple command
■ Unlocked—The sector is unprotected and can be
changed by a simple command
In order to achieve these states, three types of “bits”
are going to be used:
Persistent Protection Bit (PPB)
A single Persistent (non-volatile) Protection Bit is assigned to a maximum four sectors (see the sector address tables for specific sector protection groupings).
All 8 Kbyte boot-block sectors have individual sector
Persistent Protection Bits (PPBs) for greater flexibility.
Each PPB is individually modifiable through the PPB
Write Command.
Note: If a PPB requires erasure, all of the sector PPBs
must first be preprogrammed prior to PPB erasing. All
PPBs erase in parallel, unlike programming where individual PPBs are programmable. It is the responsibility of the user to perform the preprogramming
operation. Otherwise, an already erased sector PPBs
has the potential of being over-erased. There is no
h ar d w ar e m ec h an ism to pr e v en t s e c to r P P Bs
over-erasure.
Persistent Protection Bit Lock (PPB Lock)
A global volatile bit. When set to “1”, the PPBs cannot
be changed. When cleared (“0”), the PPBs are
changeable. There is only one PPB Lock bit per device. The PPB Lock is cleared after power-up or hardware reset. There is no command sequence to unlock
the PPB Lock.
Dynamic Protection Bit (DYB)
A volatile protection bit is assigned for each sector.
After power-up or hardware reset, the contents of all
DYBs is “0”. Each DYB is individually modifiable
through the DYB Write Command.
When the parts are first shipped, the PPBs are
cleared, the DYBs are cleared, and PPB Lock is defaulted to power up in the cleared state – meaning the
PPBs are changeable.
24
When the device is first powered on the DYBs power
up cleared (sectors not protected). The Protection
State for each sector is determined by the logical OR
of the PPB and the DYB related to that sector. For the
sectors that have the PPBs cleared, the DYBs control
whether or not the sector is protected or unprotected.
By issuing the DYB Write command sequences, the
DYBs will be set or cleared, thus placing each sector
in the protected or unprotected state. These are the
so-called Dynamic Locked or Unlocked states. They
are called dynamic states because it is very easy to
switch back and forth between the protected and unprotected conditions. This allows software to easily
protect sectors against inadvertent changes yet does
not prevent the easy removal of protection when
changes are needed. The DYBs maybe set or cleared
as often as needed.
The PPBs allow for a more static, and difficult to
change, level of protection. The PPBs retain their state
across power cycles because they are Non-Volatile.
Individual PPBs are set with a command but must all
be cleared as a group through a complex sequence of
program and erasing commands. The PPBs are also
limited to 100 erase cycles.
The PPB Lock bit adds an additional level of protection. Once all PPBs are programmed to the desired
settings, the PPB Lock may be set to “1”. Setting the
PPB Lock disables all program and erase commands
to the Non-Volatile PPBs. In effect, the PPB Lock Bit
locks the PPBs into their current state. The only way to
clear the PPB Lock is to go through a power cycle.
System boot code can determine if any changes to the
PPB are needed e.g. to allow new system code to be
downloaded. If no changes are needed then the boot
code can set the PPB Lock to disable any further
changes to the PBBs during system operation.
The WP# protects the top two and bottom two sectors
when at VIL. These sectors generally hold system boot
code. The WP# pin can prevent any changes to the
boot code that could override the choices made while
setting up sector protection during system initialization.
It is possible to have sectors that have been persistently locked, and sectors that are left in the dynamic
state. The sectors in the dynamic state are all unprotected. If there is a need to protect some of them, a
simple DYB Write command sequence is all that is
necessary. The DYB write command for the dynamic
sectors switch the DYBs to signify protected and unprotected, respectively. If there is a need to change
the status of the persistently locked sectors, a few
more steps are required. First, the PPB Lock bit must
be disabled by either putting the device through a
power-cycle, or hardware reset. The PPBs can then
be changed to reflect the desired settings. Setting the

locking bit. This guarantees that a hacker could not
place the device in password protection mode.
Note: to achieve the best protection, it’s recommended
to execute the PPB lock bit set command early in the
boot code, and protect the boot code by holding WP#
= VIL.

Table 9 contains all possible combinations of the DYBDYB, PPB, and PPB lock relating to the status of the
sector.
In summary, if the PPB is set, and the PPB lock is set,
the sector is protected and the protection can not be
removed until the next power cycle clears the PPB
lock. If the PPB is cleared, the sector can be dynamically locked or unlocked. The DYB then controls
whether or not the sector is protected or unprotected.
If the user attempts to program or erase a protected
sector, the device ignores the command and returns to
read mode. A program command to a protected sector
enables status polling for approximately 1 µs before
the device returns to read mode without having modified the contents of the protected sector. An erase
command to a protected sector enables status polling
for approximately 50 µs after which the device returns
to read mode without having erased the protected sector.
The programming of the DYB, PPB, and PPB lock for
a given sector can be verified by writing a
DYB/PPB/PPB lock verify command to the device.
Persistent Sector Protection Mode
Locking Bit
Like the password mode locking bit, a Persistent Sector Protection mode locking bit exists to guarantee that
the device remain in software sector protection. Once
set, the Persistent Sector Protection locking bit prevents programming of the password protection mode
July 29, 2002
The Password Sector Protection method is otherwise
identical to the Persistent Sector Protection method.
A 64-bit password is the only additional tool utilized in
this method.
The password is stored in the first eight bytes of the
SecSi Sector. Once the Password Mode Locking Bit is
set, the password is permanently set with no means to
read, program, or erase it. The password is used to
clear the PPB Lock bit. The Password Unlock command must be written to the flash, along with a password. The flash device internally compares the given
password with the pre-programmed password. If they
match, the PPB Lock bit is cleared, and the PPBs can
be altered. If they do not match, the flash device does
nothing. There is a built-in 2 µs delay for each “password check.” This delay is intended to thwart any efforts to run a program that tries all possible
combinations in order to crack the password.
Because the password occupies the first eight bytes of
the SecSi Sector, the password must be programmed
before either the password protection mode is selected or the SecSi Sector protection bit is programmed (to use both the SecSi Sector and Password
Protection at the same time). See Utilizing Password
and SecSi Sector Concurrently for more information.
Password and Password Mode Locking
Bit
In order to select the Password sector protection
scheme, the customer must first program the password. AMD recommends that the password be somehow correlated to the unique Electronic Serial Number
(ESN) of the particular flash device. Each ESN is different for every flash device; therefore each password
should be different for every flash device. While programming in the password region, the customer may
perform Password Verify operations.
Once the desired password is programmed in, the
customer must then set the Password Mode Locking
Bit. This operation achieves two objectives:
Am29PDL128G
25
P R E L I M I N A R Y
1. It permanently sets the device to operate using the
Password Protection Mode. It is not possible to reverse this function.
2. It also disables all further commands to the password region. All program, and read operations are
ignored.
Both of these objectives are important, and if not carefully considered, may lead to unrecoverable errors.
The user must be sure that the Password Protection
method is desired when setting the Password Mode
Locking Bit. More importantly, the user must be sure
that the password is correct when the Password Mode
Locking Bit is set. Due to the fact that read operations
are disabled, there is no means to verify what the
password is afterwards. If the password is lost after
setting the Password Mode Locking Bit, there will be
no way to clear the PPB Lock bit.
The Password Mode Locking Bit, once set, prevents
reading the 64-bit password on the DQ bus and further
password programming. The Password Mode Locking
Bit is not erasable. Once Password Mode Locking Bit
is programmed, the Persistent Sector Protection Locking Bit is disabled from programming, guaranteeing
that no changes to the protection scheme are allowed.
64-bit Password
The 64-bit Password is located in its own memory
space and is accessible through the use of the Password Program and Verify commands (see “Password
Verify Command”). The password function works in
conjunction with the Password Mode Locking Bit,
which when set, prevents the Password Verify command from reading the contents of the password on
the pins of the device.
If the system asserts VIH on the WP# pin, the device
reverts to whether sectors 0, 1, 268, and 269 were last
set to be protected or unprotected. That is, sector protection or unprotection for these sectors depends on
whether they were previously protected or unprotected
using High Voltage Sector Protection.
Persistent Protection Bit Lock
The Persistent Protection Bit (PPB) Lock is a volatile
bit that reflects the state of the Password Mode Locking Bit after power-up reset. If the Password Mode
Lock Bit is also set after a hardware reset (RESET#
asserted) or a power-up reset. The ONLY means for
clearing the PPB Lock Bit in Password Protection
Mode is to issue the Password Unlock command. Successful execution of the Password Unlock command
clears the PPB Lock Bit, allowing for sector PPBs
modifications. Asserting RESET#, taking the device
through a power-on reset, or issuing the PPB Lock Bit
Set command sets the PPB Lock Bit to a “1” when the
Password Mode Lock Bit is not set.
If the Password Mode Locking Bit is not set, including
Persistent Protection Mode, the PPB Lock Bit is
cleared after power-up or hardware reset. The PPB
Lock Bit is set by issuing the PPB Lock Bit Set command. Once set the only means for clearing the PPB
Lock Bit is by issuing a hardware or power-up reset.
The Password Unlock command is ignored in Persistent Protection Mode.
High Voltage Sector Protection
Write Protect (WP#)
The Write Protect feature provides a hardware method
of protecting sectors 0, 1, 268, and 269 without using
VID. This function is provided by the WP# pin and overrides the previously discussed Sector Protection/Unprotection method.
26
If the system asserts VIL on the WP# pin, the device
disables program and erase functions in sectors 0, 1,
268, and 269 independent of whether it was previously
protected or unprotected using High Voltage Sector
Protection.
Sector protection and unprotection may also be implemented using programming equipment. The procedure requires high voltage (VID) to be placed on the
RESET# pin. Refer to Figure 1 for details on this procedure. Note that for sector unprotect, all unprotected
sectors must first be protected prior to the first sector
write cycle.

Temporary Sector Unprotect
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previously 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 2 shows the algorithm, and
Figure 23 shows the timing diagrams, for this feature.
The system accesses the SecSi Sector through a
command sequence (see Enter SecSi Sector/Exit
SecSi Sector Command Sequence). After the system
has written the Enter SecSi Sector command sequence, it may read the SecSi Sector by using the addresses normally occupied by the boot sectors. This
mode of operation continues until the system issues
the Exit SecSi Sector command sequence, or until
power is removed from the device. On power-up, or
following a hardware reset, the device reverts to sending commands to the normal address space.

Temporary Sector Unprotect Operation
SecSi™ (Secured Silicon) Sector
Flash Memory Region
The SecSi (Secured Silicon) Sector feature provides a
Flash memory region that enables permanent part
identification through an Electronic Serial Number
(ESN). The SecSi Sector is 128 words (64 double
words) in length, and uses a SecSi Sector Indicator Bit
(DQ7) to indicate whether or not the SecSi Sector is
locked when shipped from the factory. This bit is permanently set at the factory and cannot be changed,
which prevents cloning of a factory locked part. This
ensures the security of the ESN once the product is
shipped to the field.
28
AMD offers the device with the SecSi Sector either
fa ctor y loc k ed o r c us tom er l oc k able . Th e factory-locked version is always protected when shipped
from the factory, and has the SecSi Sector Indicator
Bit permanently set to a “1.” The customer-lockable
version is shipped with the SecSi Sector unprotected,
allowing customers to utilize the that sector in any
manner they choose. The customer-lockable version
has the SecSi Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a
“0.” Thus, the SecSi Sector Indicator Bit prevents customer-lockable devices from being used to replace devices that are factory locked.
In a factory locked device, the SecSi Sector is protected when the device is shipped from the factory.
The SecSi Sector cannot be modified in any way. The
device is preprogrammed with both a random number
and a secure ESN. The SecSi Sector is located at add r e s se s 0 0 0 0 0 0 h – 0 0 0 0 7 F h i n w o r d m o de ( o r
000000h–00003Fh in double word mode). The device
is available preprogrammed with one of the following:
■ A random, secure ESN only
■ Customer code through the ExpressFlash service
■ Both a random, secure ESN and customer code
through the ExpressFlash service.
Customers may opt to have their code programmed by
AMD through the AMD ExpressFlash service. AMD
programs the customer’s code, with or without the random ESN. The devices are then shipped from AMD’s
factory with the SecSi Sector permanently locked.
Contact an AMD representative for details on using
AMD’s ExpressFlash service.
Customer Lockable: SecSi Sector NOT
Programmed or Protected At the Factory
If the security feature is not required, the SecSi Sector
can be treated as an additional Flash memory space.
The SecSi Sector can be read any number of times,
but can be programmed and locked only once. Note
that the accelerated programming (ACC) and unlock
bypass functions are not available when programming
the SecSi Sector.
Am29PDL128G
July 29, 2002
P R E L I M I N A R Y
The SecSi Sector area can be protected using one of
the following procedures:
6. Exit the SecSi Sector by issuing the SecSi Sector
Exit or Reset command
■ Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector Region
command sequence, and then follow the in-system
sector protect algorithm as shown in Figure 1, except that RESET# may be at either VIH or VID. This
allows in-system protection of the SecSi Sector Region without raising any device pin to a high voltage.
Note that this method is only applicable to the SecSi
Sector.
Note: Step 4 may be performed prior to step 2.
■ Write the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector Secure
Region command sequence, and then use the alternate method of sector protection described in the
Sector Protection section.
Once the SecSi Sector is locked and verified, the system must write the Exit SecSi Sector Region command sequence to return to reading and writing the
remainder of the array.
The SecSi Sector lock must be used with caution
since, once locked, there is no procedure available for
unlocking the SecSi Sector area and none of the bits
in the SecSi Sector memory space can be modified in
any way.
SecSi Sector Protection Bit
The SecSi Sector Protection Bit prevents programming of the SecSi Sector memory area. Once set, the
SecSi Sector memory area contents are non-modifiable.
Utilizing Password and SecSi Sector Concurrently
The password must be stored in the first eight bytes of
the SecSi Sector. Once the device is permanently
locked into the Password Protection Mode, the erase,
program, and read operation no longer work on those
eight bytes of password in the SecSi Sector. Once the
SecSi Sector protection bit is programmed, no location
in the SecSi Sector may be programmed. To use both
Password Protection and the SecSi Sector concurrently, the user must always program the password
into the first eight bytes of the SecSi Sector before either the Password Protection Mode is selected or the
SecSi Sector protection bit is programmed.
Method 2
1. Enter the SecSi Sector by issuing the SecSi Sector
Entry command.
2. Program the entire SecSi Sector, including the first
eight bytes contain the 64-bit password.
3. Lock the password by issuing the Password Protection Mode Locking Bit Program command.
4. Lock the SecSi Sector by issuing the SecSi Sector
Protection Bit Program command.
5. Exit the SecSi Sector by issuing the SecSi Sector
Exit or Reset command
Note: Step 4 may be performed prior to step 3.
Hardware Data Protection
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles
for programming or erasing provides data protection
against inadvertent writes. 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 and power-down transitions, or from system
noise.
Low VCC Write Inhibit
When VCC is less than V LKO, the device does not accept any write cycles. This protects data during VCC
power-up and power-down. The command register
and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled,
and the device resets to the read mode. Subsequent
writes are ignored until VCC is greater than VLKO. The
system must provide the proper signals to the control
pins to prevent unintentional writes when V CC is
greater than VLKO.
Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE#
or WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
Logical Inhibit
1. Enter the SecSi Sector by issuing the SecSi Sector
Entry command.
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# =
VIL, CE# = VIH or WE# = V IH. To initiate a write cycle,
CE# and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a
logical one.
2. Program the 64-bit password by issuing the Password Program and Password Verify commands
Power-Up Write Inhibit
Method 1
3. Lock the password by issuing the Password Protection Mode Locking Bit Program command.
4. Program the SecSi Sector, excluding bytes 0–7.
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 the read mode on power-up.
5. Lock the SecSi Sector by issuing the SecSi Sector
Protection Bit Program command.

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
interfaces 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 ready to read array data. The
system can read CFI information at the addresses
given in Tables 10–13. To terminate reading CFI data,
Table 10.
the system must write the reset command. The CFI
Query mode is not accessible when the device is executing an Embedded Program or embedded Erase algorithm.
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 Tables 10–13. The
system must write the reset command to return the device to reading array data.

COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific address and data commands or sequences into the command register initiates device operations. Tables 14–17 define 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 AC Characteristics section for timing
diagrams.
Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to
retrieve data. Each bank is ready to read array data
after completing an Embedded Program or Embedded
Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,
the corresponding bank enters the eras e-sus pend-read mode, after which the system can read
data from any non-erase-suspended sector within the
same bank. The system can read array data using the
standard read timing, 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 the Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands section for more information.
The system must issue the reset command to return a
bank to the read (or erase-suspend-read) mode if DQ5
goes high during an active program or erase operation, or if the bank is in the autoselect mode. See the
next section, Reset Command, for more information.
which the system was writing to the read mode. If the
program command sequence is written to a bank that
is in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset
co m m an d re tur n s th at b a nk t o t he e ra se- suspend-read 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 the read mode. If a bank
entered the autoselect mode while in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset command returns that
bank to the erase-suspend-read mode.
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command returns the banks to the
read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if that bank
was in Erase Suspend).
Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host
system to access the manufacturer and device codes,
and determine whether or not a sector is protected.
The autoselect command sequence may be written to
an address within a bank that is either in the read or
erase-suspend-read mode. The autoselect command
may not be written while the device is actively programming or erasing in the other bank.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by first
writing two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third
write cycle that contains the bank address and the autoselect command. The bank then enters the autoselect mode. The system may read any number of
autoselect codes without reinitiating the command sequence.
Reset Command
Tables 14 and 16 show the address and data requirements. To determine sector protection information, the
system must write to the appropriate bank address
(BA) and sector address (SA). Table 5 shows the address range and bank number associated with each
sector.
Writing the reset command resets the banks to the
read or erase-suspend-read mode. Address bits are
don’t cares for this command.
The system must write the reset command to return to
the read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if the
bank was previously in Erase Suspend).
See also Requirements for Reading Array Data in the
Device Bus Operations section for more information.
The Read-Only Operations table provides the read parameters, and Figure 11 shows the timing diagram.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the bank to which the system was writing to the read mode. 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 bank to

Enter SecSi Sector/Exit SecSi Sector
Command Sequence
The SecSi Sector region provides a secured data area
containing a random, eight word/four double word
electronic serial number (ESN). The system can access the SecSi Sector region by issuing the three-cycle Enter SecSi Sector command sequence. The
device continues to access the SecSi Sector region

operation. The SecSi Sector is not accessible when
the device is executing an Embedded Program or embedded Erase algorithm. Tables 15 and 17 show the
address and data requirements for both command sequences. See also “SecSi™ (Secured Silicon) Sector
Flash Memory Region” for further information.
Double Word/Word Program Command
Sequence
The system may program the device by double word
or word, depending on the state of the WORD# 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 verifies the
programmed cell margin. Tables 14 and 16 show the
address and data requirements for the program command sequence.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete,
that bank then returns to the read mode and addresses are no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the program operation by using
DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#. Refer to the Write Operation
Status section 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 program
operation. The program command sequence should
be reinitiated once that bank has returned to the read
mode, to ensure data integrity.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across
sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed
from “0” back to a “1.” Attempting to do so may
cause that bank to set DQ5 = 1, or cause the DQ7 and
DQ6 status bits to indicate the operation was successful. However, a succeeding read will show that the
July 29, 2002
data is still “0.” Only erase operations can convert a
“0” to a “1.”
Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program data to a bank 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. That bank
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. Tables 14 and 16 show the requirements
for the command sequence.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock Bypass Program and Unlock Bypass Reset commands
are valid. To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system
must issue the two-cycle unlock bypass reset command sequence. The first cycle must contain the bank
address and the data 90h. The second cycle need
only contain the data 00h. The bank then returns to
the read mode.
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the ACC pin. When the system asserts VHH on
the ACC pin, the device automatically enters the Unlock Bypass mode. The system may then write the
two-cycle Unlock Bypass program command sequence. The device uses the higher voltage on the
ACC pin to accelerate the operation. Note that the
ACC pin must not be at VHH any operation other than
accelerated programming, or device damage may result. In addition, the ACC pin must not be left floating
or unconnected; inconsistent behavior of the device
may result.
Figure 3 illustrates the algorithm for the program operation. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations
table in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 16 for timing diagrams.

Program Operation
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. Tables 14 and
16 show the address and data requirements for the
chip erase command sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete,
that bank returns to the read mode and addresses are
no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6, DQ2,
or RY/BY#. Refer to the Write Operation Status section for information on these status bits.
36
After the command sequence is written, a sector erase
time-out of 80 µs occurs. During the time-out period,
additional sector addresses and sector erase commands may be written. Loading the sector erase buffer
may be done in any sequence, and the number of sectors may be from one sector to all sectors. The time
between these additional cycles must be less than 80
µs, otherwise erasure may begin. Any sector erase
address and command following the exceeded
time-out may or may not be accepted. 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. Any command other than
S e ct o r E ra se o r E ra s e S u s p en d d u r i n g th e
time-out period resets that bank to the read mode.
The system must rewrite the command sequence and
any additional addresses and commands.
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sector erase timer has timed out (See the section on DQ3:
Sector Erase Timer.). The time-out begins from the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command
sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the
bank returns to reading array data and addresses are
no longer latched. Note that while the Embedded
Erase operation is in progress, the system can read
data from the non-erasing bank. The system can determine the status of the erase operation by reading
Am29PDL128G
July 29, 2002
P R E L I M I N A R Y
DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY# in the erasing bank.
Refer to the Write Operation Status section for information on these status bits.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the
Erase Suspend command is valid. All other commands are ignored. However, note that a hardware
reset immediately terminates the erase operation. If
that occurs, the sector erase command sequence
should be reinitiated once that bank has returned to
reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
Figure 4 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to the Erase and Program Operations tables in the AC Characteristics section for parameters,
and Figure 18 section for timing diagrams.
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
Commands
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also
issue the autoselect command sequence. 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.
Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autoselect Command Sequence sections for details.
To resume the sector erase operation, the system
must write the Erase Resume command (address bits
are don’t care). The bank address of the erase-suspended bank is required when writing this command.
Further writes of the Resume command are ignored.
Another Erase Suspend command can be written after
the chip has resumed erasing.
The Erase Suspend command, B0h, allows the system to interrupt a sector erase operation and then read
data from, or program data to, any sector not selected
for erasure. The bank address is required when writing
this command. This command is valid only during the
sector erase operation, including the 80 µs 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.

Data Poll to Erasing
Bank from System
When the Erase Suspend command is written during
the sector erase operation, the device requires a maximum of 20 µs 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. Addresses are “don’t-cares” when
writing the Erase suspend command.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the
bank enters the erase-suspend-read mode. The system can read data from or program data to any sector
not selected for erasure. (The device “erase suspends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Reading at
any address within erase-suspended sectors produces status information on DQ7–DQ0. The system
can use DQ7, or DQ6 and DQ2 together, to determine
if a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended.
Refer to the Write Operation Status section for information on these status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete, the bank returns to the erase-suspend-read
mode. The system can determine the status of the
program operation using the DQ7 or DQ6 status bits,
just as in the standard Double Word/Word Program
operation. Refer to the Write Operation Status section

Password Program Command
The Password Program Command permits programming the password that is used as part of the hardware protection scheme. The actual password is
64-bits long. Depending upon the state of the WORD#
pin, multiple Password Program Commands are required. For a x16 bit data bus, 4 Password Program
commands are required to program the password. For
Am29PDL128G
37
P R E L I M I N A R Y
a x32 bit data bus, 2 Password Program commands
are required. The user must enter the unlock cycle,
password program command (38h) and the program
address/data for each portion of the password when
programming. There is no special addressing order required for programming the password. Also, when the
password is undergoing programming, Simultaneous
Operation is disabled. Read operations to any memory
location will return the programming status. Once prog ra m m in g is co m pl et e, t he use r m ust issu e a
Read/Reset command to return the device to normal
operation. Once the Password is written and verified,
the Password Mode Locking Bit must be set in order to
prevent verification. The Password Program Command is only capable of programming “0”s. Programming a “1” after a cell is programmed as a “0” results in
a time-out by the Embedded Program Algorithm™
with the cell remaining as a “0”. The password is all F’s
when shipped from the factory. All 64-bit password
combinations are valid as a password.
Password Programming is permitted if the SecSi sector is enabled.
Password Verify Command
The Password Verify Command is used to verify the
Password. The Password is verifiable only when the
Password Mode Locking Bit is not programmed. If the
Password Mode Locking Bit is programmed and the
user attempts to verify the Password, the device will
always drive all F’s onto the DQ data bus.
The Password Verify command is permitted if the
SecSi sector is enabled. Also, the device will not operate in Simultaneous Operation when the Password
Verify command is executed. Only the password is returned regardless of the bank address. The lower two
address bits (A0:A-1) are valid during the Password
Verify. Writing the Read/Reset command returns the
device back to normal operation.
Password Protection Mode Locking Bit
Program Command
The Password Protection Mode Locking Bit Program
Command programs the Password Protection Mode
Locking Bit, which prevents further verifies or updates
to the Password. Once programmed, the Password
Protection Mode Locking Bit cannot be erased! If the
Password Protection Mode Locking Bit is verified as
program without margin, the Password Protection
Mode Locking Bit Program command can be executed
to improve the program margin. Once the Password
Protection Mode Locking Bit is programmed, the Persistent Sector Protection Locking Bit program circuitry
is disabled, thereby forcing the device to remain in the
Password Protection mode. Exiting the Mode Locking
Bit Program command is accomplished by writing the
Read/Reset command.
38
The Password Protection Mode Locking Bit Program
command is permitted if the SecSi sector is enabled.
Persistent Sector Protection Mode
Locking Bit Program Command
The Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit
Program Command programs the Persistent Sector
Protection Mode Locking Bit, which prevents the Password Mode Locking Bit from ever being programmed.
If the Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit is
verified as programmed without margin, the Persistent
Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit Program Command should be reissued to improve program margin.
By disabling the program circuitry of the Password
Mode Locking Bit, the device is forced to remain in the
Persistent Sector Protection mode of operation, once
this bit is set. Exiting the Persistent Protection Mode
Locking Bit Program command is accomplished by
writing the Read/Reset command.
The Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit
Program command is permitted if the SecSi sector is
enabled.
SecSi Sector Protection Bit Program
Command
The SecSi Sector Protection Bit Program Command
programs the SecSi Sector Protection Bit, which prevents the SecSi sector memory from being cleared. If
the SecSi Sector Protection Bit is verified as programmed without margin, the SecSi Sector Protection

program margin. Exiting the VCC-level SecSi Sector
Protection Bit Program Command is accomplished by
writing the Read/Reset command.
The SecSi Sector Protection Bit Program command is
permitted if the SecSi sector is enabled.
PPB Lock Bit Set Command
The PPB Lock Bit Set command is used to set the
PPB Lock bit if it is cleared either at reset or if the
Password Unlock command was successfully executed. There is no PPB Lock Bit Clear command.
Once the PPB Lock Bit is set, it cannot be cleared unless the device is taken through a power-on clear or
the Password Unlock command is executed. Upon
setting the PPB Lock Bit, the PPBs are latched into the
DYBs. If the Password Mode Locking Bit is set, the
PPB Lock Bit status is reflected as set, even after a
power-on reset cycle. In the Persistent Sector Protection mode, exiting the PPB Lock Bit Set command is
accomplished by writing the Read/Reset command.
The PPB Lock Bit Set command is permitted if the
SecSi sector is enabled.

DYB Write Command
PPB Program Command
The DYB Write command is used to set or clear a DYB
for a given sector. The high order address bits
(A21–A11) are issued at the same time as the code
01h or 00h on DQ7-DQ0. All other DQ data bus pins
are ignored during the data write cycle. The DYBs are
modifiable at any time, regardless of the state of the
PPB or PPB Lock Bit. The DYBs are cleared at
power-up or hardware reset.Exiting the DYB Write
command is accomplished by writing the Read/Reset
command.
The PPB Program command is used to program, or
set, a given PPB. Each PPB is individually programmed (but is bulk erased with the other PPBs).
The specific sector address (A21–A11) are written at
the same time as the program command 60h with A6
= 0. If the PPB Lock Bit is set and the corresponding
PPB is set for the sector, the PPB Program command
will not execute and the command will time-out without
programming the PPB.
The DYB Write command is permitted if the SecSi
sector is enabled.
Password Unlock Command
The Password Unlock command is used to clear the
PPB Lock Bit so that the PPBs can be unlocked for
modification, thereby allowing the PPBs to become accessible for modification. The exact password must be
entered in order for the unlocking function to occur.
This command cannot be issued any faster than 2 µs
at a time to prevent a hacker from running through the
all 64-bit combinations in an attempt to correctly match
a password. If the command is issued before the 2 µs
execution window for each portion of the unlock, the
command will be ignored.
The Password Unlock function is accomplished by
writing Password Unlock command and data to the
device to perform the clearing of the PPB Lock Bit.
The password is 64 bits long, so the user must write
the Password Unlock command 2 times for a x32 bit
data bus and 4 times for a x16 data bus.
Once the Password Unlock command is entered, the
RY/BY# pin goes LOW indicating that the device is
busy. Approximately 2 µs is required for each portion
of the unlock. Once the first portion of the password
unlock completes (RY/BY# is not driven and DQ6
does not toggle when read), the Password Unlock
command is issued again, only this time with the next
part of the password. If WORD# = 1, the second Password Unlock command is the final command before
the PPB Lock Bit is cleared (assuming a valid password). If WORD# = 0, this is the fourth Password Unlock command. In x16 mode, four Password Unlock
commands are required to successfully clear the PPB
Lock Bit. As with the first Password Unlock command,
the RY/BY# signal goes LOW and reading the device
results in the DQ6 pin toggling on successive read operations until complete. It is the responsibility of the
microprocessor to keep track of the number of Password Unlock commands (2 for x32 bus and 4 for x16
bus), the order, and when to read the PPB Lock bit to
confirm successful password unlock
The Password Unlock command is permitted if the
SecSi sector is enabled.

After programming a PPB, two additional cycles are
needed to determine whether the PPB has been programmed with margin. If the PPB has been programmed without margin, the program command
should be reissued to improve the program margin.
The PPB Program command is permitted if the SecSi
sector is enabled. The PPB Program command does
not follow the Embedded Program algorithm.
All PPB Erase Command
The All PPB Erase command is used to erase all
PPBs in bulk. There is no means for individually erasing a specific PPB. Unlike the PPB program, no specific sector address is required. However, when the
PPB erase command is written (60h) and A6 = 1, all
Sector PPBs are erased in parallel. If the PPB Lock Bit
is set the ALL PPB Erase command will not execute
and the command will time-out without erasing the
PPBs. After erasing the PPBs, two additional cycles
are needed to determine whether the PPB has been
erased with margin. If the PPBs has been erased without margin, the erase command should be reissued to
improve the program margin.
It is the responsibility of the user to preprogram all
PPBs prior to issuing the All PPB Erase command. If
the user attempts to erase a cleared PPB, over-erasure may occur making it difficult to program the PPB
at a later time. Also note that the total number of PPB
program/erase cycles is limited to 100 cycles. Cycling
the PPBs beyond 100 cycles is not guaranteed.
The All PPB Erase command is permitted if the SecSi
sector is enabled.
DYB Write Command
The DYB Write command is used for setting the DYB,
which is a volatile bit that is cleared at hardware reset.
There is one DYB per sector. If the PPB is set, the
sector is protected regardless of the value of the DYB.
If the PPB is cleared, setting the DYB to a 1 protects
the sector from programs or erases. Since this is a volatile bit, removing power or resetting the device will
clear the DYBs. The bank address is latched when the
command is written.

P R E L I M I N A R Y
The DYB Write command is permitted if the SecSi
sector is enabled.
Sector Protection Status Command
PPB Lock Bit Set Command
The programming of either the PPB or DYB for a given
sector or sector group can be verified by writing a Sector Protection Status command to the device.
The PPB Lock Bit set command is used for setting the
PPB lock bit. During Password Protection mode, only
the Password Unlock command can reset the PPB
Lock Bit to 0. Otherwise, a power-up or hardware reset
resets the PPB Lock Bit to 0.
Note that there is no single command to independently
verify the programming of a DYB or PPB for a given
sector group.
PPB Lock Bit Status Command
The programming of the PPB Lock Bit can be verified
by writing a PPB Lock Bit status verify command to the
device.

WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The device provides several bits to determine the status of
a program or erase operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, and
DQ7. Table 18 and the following subsections describe the
function of these bits. DQ7 and DQ6 each offer a method
for determining whether a program or erase operation is
complete or in progress. The device also provides a hardware-based output signal, RY/BY#, to determine whether
an Embedded Program or Erase operation is in progress or
has been completed.

Table 18 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7.
Figure 5 shows the Data# Polling algorithm. Figure 20
in the AC Characteristics section shows the Data#
Polling timing diagram.
DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system
whether an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm is in
progress or completed, or whether a bank is in Erase Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final
WE# pulse in the command sequence.

complete, the device outputs the datum programmed to
DQ7. The system must provide the program address to
read valid status information on DQ7. If a program address
falls within a protected sector, Data# Polling on DQ7 is active for approximately 1 µs, then that bank returns to the
read mode.
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling
produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase
algorithm is complete, or if the bank enters the Erase
Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a “1” on DQ7.
The system must provide an address within any of the
sectors selected for erasure to read valid status information on DQ7.

After an erase command sequence is written, if all
sectors selected for erasing are protected, Data# Polling on DQ7 is active for approximately 100 µs, then
the bank returns to the read mode. If not all selected
sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm
erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the selected sectors that are protected. However, if the system reads DQ7 at an address within a protected
sector, the status may not be valid.
When the system detects DQ7 has changed from the
complement to true data, it can read valid data at
DQ31–DQ0 (or DQ15–DQ0 for word mode) on the following read cycles. Just prior to the completion of an
Embedded Program or Erase operation, DQ7 may
change asynchronously with DQ31–DQ16
(DQ15–DQ0 for word mode) while Output Enable
(OE#) is asserted low. That is, the device may change
from providing status information to valid data on DQ7.
Depending on when the system samples the DQ7 output, it may read the status or valid data. Even if the de-

Notes:
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector
erase operation, a valid address is any sector address
within the sector being erased. During chip erase, a
valid address is any non-protected sector address.
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = “1” because
DQ7 may change simultaneously with DQ5.

RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin
which 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 in the read mode, the standby
mode, or one of the banks is in the erase-suspend-read mode.
DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program
mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Program algorithm is complete.
Table 18 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on DQ6.
Figure 6 shows the toggle bit algorithm. Figure 21 in
the “AC Characteristics” section shows the toggle bit
timing diagrams. Figure 22 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the

DQ6: Toggle Bit I
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Embedded
Program or Erase algorithm is in progress or complete, or whether the device has entered the Erase
Suspend mode. Toggle Bit I may be read at any address, and is valid after the rising edge of the final
WE# pulse in the command sequence (prior to the
program or erase operation), and during the sector
erase time-out.
During an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm operation, successive read cycles to any address cause
DQ6 to toggle. The system may use either OE# or
CE# to control the read cycles. When the operation is
complete, DQ6 stops toggling.

After an erase command sequence is written, if all

The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to determine whether a sector is actively erasing or is
erase-suspended. When the device is actively erasing
(that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm is in progress),
DQ6 toggles. When the device enters the Erase Suspend mode, DQ6 stops toggling. However, the system
must also use DQ2 to determine which sectors are
erasing or erase-suspended. Alternatively, the system
can use DQ7 (see the subsection on DQ7: Data# Polling).
If a program address falls within a protected sector,
DQ6 toggles for approximately 1 µs after the program

DQ2: Toggle Bit II
The “Toggle Bit II” on DQ2, when used with DQ6, indicates whether a particular sector is actively erasing
(that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm is in progress),
or whether that sector is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit
II is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in
the command sequence.
DQ2 toggles when the system reads at addresses
within those sectors that have been selected for erasure. (The system may use either OE# or CE# to control the read cycles.) But DQ2 cannot distinguish
whether the sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended. DQ6, by comparison, indicates whether the
device is actively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but
cannot distinguish which sectors are selected for erasure. Thus, both status bits are required for sector and
mode information. Refer to Table 18 to compare outputs for DQ2 and DQ6.
Figure 6 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart
form, and the section “DQ2: Toggle Bit II” explains the
algorithm. See also the DQ6: Toggle Bit I subsection.
Figure 21 shows the toggle bit timing diagram. Figure
22 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in
graphical form.
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 6 for the following discussion. Whenever the system initially begins reading toggle bit status, it must read DQ31–DQ0 (or DQ15–DQ0 for word
mode) at least twice in a row to determine whether a
toggle bit is toggling. Typically, the system would note
and store the value of the toggle bit after the first read.
After the second read, the system would compare the
new value of the toggle bit with the first. If the toggle
bit is not toggling, the device has completed the program or erase operation. The system can read array
data on DQ31–DQ0 (or DQ15–DQ0 for word mode)
on the following read cycle.
not gone high. The system may continue to monitor
the toggle bit and DQ5 through successive read cycles, determining the status as described in the previous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to perform
other system tasks. In this case, the system must start
at the beginning of the algorithm when it returns to determine the status of the operation (top of Figure 6).
DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has
exceeded a specified internal pulse count limit. Under these
conditions DQ5 produces a “1,” indicating that the program
or erase cycle was not successfully completed.
The device may output a “1” on DQ5 if the system tries
to program a “1” to a location that was previously programmed to “0.” Only an erase operation can
change a “0” back to a “1.” Under this condition, the
device halts the operation, and when the timing limit
has been exceeded, DQ5 produces a “1.”
Under both these conditions, the system must write
the reset command to return to the read mode (or to
the erase-suspend-read mode if a bank was previously in the erase-suspend-program mode).
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the
system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not
erasure has begun. (The sector erase timer does not
apply to the chip erase command.) If additional
sectors are selected for erasure, the entire time-out
also applies after each additional sector erase command. When the time-out period is complete, DQ3
switches from a “0” to a “1.” If the time between additional sector erase commands from the system can be
assumed to be less than 50 µs, the system need not
monitor DQ3. See also the Sector Erase Command
Sequence section.
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system
determines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the system also should note whether the value of DQ5 is high
(see the section on DQ5). If it is, the system should
then determine again whether the toggle bit is toggling, since the toggle bit may have stopped toggling
just as DQ5 went high. If the toggle bit is no longer
toggling, the device has successfully completed the
program or erase operation. If it is still toggling, the device did not completed the operation successfully, and
the system must write the reset command to return to
reading array data.
After the sector erase command is written, the system
should read the status of DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6
(Toggle Bit I) to ensure that the device has accepted
the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is
“1,” the Embedded Erase algorithm has begun; all further commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored
until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,” the
device will accept additional sector erase commands.
To ensure the command has been accepted, the system software should check the status of DQ3 prior to
and following each subsequent sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the
last command might not have been accepted.
The remaining scenario is that the system initially determines that the toggle bit is toggling and DQ5 has
Table 18 shows the status of DQ3 relative to the other
status bits.

Notes:
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 3.0 V VCC, 1,000,000 cycles. Additionally,
programming typicals assume checkerboard pattern.
2. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 2.7 V, 1,000,000 cycles.
3. The typical chip programming time is considerably less than the maximum chip programming time listed, since most bytes
program faster than the maximum program times listed.
4. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00h before erasure.
5. System-level overhead is the time required to execute the two- or four-bus-cycle sequence for the program command. See Tables
14–17 for further information on command definitions.
6. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 1,000,000 cycles.
