SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M50FLW080 is a 8 Mbit (1M x8) non-volatile
memory that can be read, erased and reprogrammed. These operations can be performed using a single low voltage (3.0 to 3.6V) supply. For
fast programming and fast erasing on production
lines, an optional 12V power supply can be used
to reduce the erasing and programming time.
The memory is divided into 16 Uniform Blocks of
64 KBytes each, three of which are divided into 16
uniform sectors of 4 KBytes each (see APPENDIX
A. for details). All blocks and sectors can be
erased independently. So, it is possible to preserve valid data while old data is erased. Blocks
can be protected individually to prevent accidental
program or erase commands from modifying their
contents.
Program and erase commands are written to the
Command Interface of the memory. An on-chip
Program/Erase Controller simplifies the process of
programming or erasing the memory by taking
care of all of the special operations that are required to update the memory contents. The end of
a program or erase operation can be detected and
6/53
any error conditions identified. The command set
to control the memory is consistent with the JEDEC standards.
Two different bus interfaces are supported by the
memory:
■
The primary interface, the FWH/LPC
Interface, uses Intel’s proprietary Firmware
Hub (FWH) and Low Pin Count (LPC)
protocol. This has been designed to remove
the need for the ISA bus in current PC
Chipsets. The M50FLW080 acts as the PC
BIOS on the Low Pin Count bus for these PC
Chipsets.
■
The secondary interface, the Address/
Address Multiplexed (or A/A Mux) Interface, is
designed to be compatible with current Flash
Programmers, for production line
programming prior to fitting the device in a PC
Motherboard.
The memory is supplied with all the bits erased
(set to ’1’).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
There are two distinct bus interfaces available on
this device. The active interface is selected before
power-up, or during Reset, using the Interface
Configuration Pin, IC.
The signals for each interface are discussed in the
Firmware Hub/Low Pin Count (FWH/LPC) Signal
Descriptions section and the Address/Address
Multiplexed (A/A Mux) Signal Descriptions section, respectively, while the supply signals are discussed in the Supply Signal Descriptions section.
Firmware Hub/Low Pin Count (FWH/LPC)
Signal Descriptions
Please see Figure 2. and Table 1..
Input/Output Communications (FWH0/LAD0FWH3/LAD3). All Input and Output Communications with the memory take place on these pins.
Addresses and Data for Bus Read and Bus Write
operations are encoded on these pins.
Input
Communication
Frame
(FWH4/
LFRAME). The Input Communication Frame
(FWH4/LFRAME) signal indicates the start of a
bus operation. When Input Communication Frame
is Low, VIL, on the rising edge of the Clock, a new
bus operation is initiated. If Input Communication
Frame is Low, VIL, during a bus operation then the
operation is aborted. When Input Communication
Frame is High, VIH, the current bus operation is either proceeding or the bus is idle.
Identification Inputs (ID0-ID3). Up to 16 memories can be addressed on a bus, in the Firmware
Hub (FWH) mode. The Identification Inputs allow
each device to be given a unique 4-bit address. A
‘0’ is signified on a pin by driving it Low, VIL, or
leaving it floating (since there is an internal pulldown resistor, with a value of RIL). A ‘1’ is signified
on a pin by driving it High, VIH (and there will be a
leakage current of ILI2 through the pin).
By convention, the boot memory must have address ‘0000’, and all additional memories are given addresses, allocated sequentially, from ‘0001’.
In the Low Pin Count (LPC) mode, the identification Inputs (ID2-ID3) can address up to 4 memories on a bus. In the LPC mode, the ID0 and ID1
signals are Reserved for Future Use (RFU). The
value on address A20-A21 is compared to the
hardware strapping on the ID2-ID3 lines to select
the memory that is being addressed. For an address bit to be ‘1’, the corresponding ID pin can be
left floating or driven Low, VIL (again, with the internal pull-down resistor, with a value of RIL). For
an address bit to be ‘0’, the corresponding ID pin
must be driven High, VIH (and there will be a leakage current of ILI2 through the pin, as specified in
Table 24.). For details, see Table 5..
10/53
General Purpose Inputs (GPI0-GPI4). The
General Purpose Inputs can be used as digital inputs for the CPU to read, with their contents being
available in the General Purpose Inputs Register.
The pins must have stable data throughout the entire cycle that reads the General Purpose Input
Register. These pins should be driven Low, VIL, or
High, VIH, and must not be left floating.
Interface Configuration (IC). The Interface Configuration input selects whether the FWH/LPC interface or the Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A
Mux) Interface is used. The state of the Interface
Configuration, IC, should not be changed during
operation of the memory device, except for selecting the desired interface in the period before power-up or during a Reset.
To select the FWH/LPC Interface, the Interface
Configuration pin should be left to float or driven
Low, VIL. To select the Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) Interface, the pin should be driven High, VIH. An internal pull-down resistor is
included with a value of RIL; there will be a leakage
current of ILI2 through each pin when pulled to VIH.
Interface Reset (RP). The Interface Reset (RP)
input is used to reset the device. When Interface
Reset (RP) is driven Low, VIL, the memory is in
Reset mode (the outputs go to high impedance,
and the current consumption is minimized). When
RP is driven High, VIH, the device is in normal operation. After exiting Reset mode, the memory enters Read mode.
CPU Reset (INIT). The CPU Reset, INIT, signal
is used to Reset the device when the CPU is reset.
It behaves identically to Interface Reset, RP, and
the internal Reset line is the logical OR (electrical
AND) of RP and INIT.
Clock (CLK). The Clock, CLK, input is used to
clock the signals in and out of the Input/Output
Communication Pins, FWH0/LAD0-FWH3/LAD3.
The Clock conforms to the PCI specification.
Top Block Lock (TBL). The Top Block Lock input is used to prevent the Top Block (Block 15)
from being changed. When Top Block Lock, TBL,
is driven Low, VIL, program and erase operations
in the Top Block have no effect, regardless of the
state of the Lock Register. When Top Block Lock,
TBL, is driven High, VIH, the protection of the Block
is determined by the Lock Registers. The state of
Top Block Lock, TBL, does not affect the protection of the Main Blocks (Blocks 0 to 14). For details, see APPENDIX A..
Top Block Lock, TBL, must be set prior to a program or erase operation being initiated, and must
not be changed until the operation has completed,
otherwise unpredictable results may occur. Similarly, unpredictable behavior is possible if WP is
M50FLW080A, M50FLW080B
changed during Program or Erase Suspend, and
care should be taken to avoid this.
Write Protect (WP). The Write Protect input is
used to prevent the Main Blocks (Blocks 0 to 14)
from being changed. When Write Protect, WP, is
driven Low, VIL, Program and Erase operations in
the Main Blocks have no effect, regardless of the
state of the Lock Register. When Write Protect,
WP, is driven High, VIH, the protection of the Block
or Sector is determined by the Lock Registers. The
state of Write Protect, WP, does not affect the protection of the Top Block (Block 15). For details,
see APPENDIX A..
Write Protect, WP, must be set prior to a Program
or Erase operation is initiated, and must not be
changed until the operation has completed otherwise unpredictable results may occur. Similarly,
unpredictable behavior is possible if WP is
changed during Program or Erase Suspend, and
care should be taken to avoid this.
Reserved for Future Use (RFU). Reserved for
Future Use (RFU). These pins do not presently
have assigned functions. They must be left disconnected, except for ID0 and ID1 (when in LPC
mode) which can be left connected. The electrical
characteristics for these signals are as described
in the “Identification Inputs (ID0-ID3).” section.
Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux)
Signal Descriptions
Please see Figure 3. and Table 2..
Address Inputs (A0-A10). The Address Inputs
are used to set the Row Address bits (A0-A10) and
the Column Address bits (A11-A19). They are
latched during any bus operation by the Row/Column Address Select input, RC.
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). The Data Inputs/Outputs hold the data that is to be written to
or read from the memory. They output the data
stored at the selected address during a Bus Read
operation. During Bus Write operations they carry
the commands that are sent to the Command Interface of the internal state machine. The Data Inputs/Outputs, DQ0-DQ7, are latched during a Bus
Write operation.
Output Enable (G). The Output Enable signal, G,
controls the output buffers during a Bus Read operation.
Write Enable (W). The Write Enable signal, W,
controls the Bus Write operation of the Command
Interface.
Row/Column Address Select (RC). The Row/
Column Address Select input selects whether the
Address Inputs are to be latched into the Row Address bits (A0-A10) or the Column Address bits
(A11-A19). The Row Address bits are latched on
the falling edge of RC whereas the Column Address bits are latched on its rising edge.
Supply Signal Descriptions
The Supply Signals are the same for both interfaces.
VCC Supply Voltage. The VCC Supply Voltage
supplies the power for all operations (read, program, erase, etc.).
The Command Interface is disabled when the VCC
Supply Voltage is less than the Lockout Voltage,
VLKO. This is to prevent Bus Write operations from
accidentally damaging the data during power up,
power down and power surges. If the Program/
Erase Controller is programming or erasing during
this time, the operation aborts, and the memory
contents that were being altered will be invalid. After VCC becomes valid, the Command Interface is
reset to Read mode.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected between
the VCC Supply Voltage pins and the VSS Ground
pin to decouple the current surges from the power
supply. Both VCC Supply Voltage pins must be
connected to the power supply. The PCB track
widths must be sufficient to carry the currents required during program and erase operations.
VPP Optional Supply Voltage. The VPP Optional
Supply Voltage pin is used to select the Fast Program (see the Quadruple Byte Program command
description in A/A Mux interface and the Double/
Quadruple Byte Program command description in
FWH mode) and Fast Erase options of the memory.
When VPP = VCC, program and erase operations
take place as normal. When VPP = VPPH, Fast Program and Erase operations are used. Any other
voltage input to VPP will result in undefined behavior, and should not be used.
VPP should not be set to VPPH for more than
80 hours during the life of the memory.
VSS Ground. VSS is the reference for all the voltage measurements.

BUS OPERATIONS
The two interfaces, A/A Mux and FWH/LPC, support similar operations, but with different bus signals and timings. The Firmware Hub/Low Pin
Count (FWH/LPC) Interface offers full functionality, while the Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A
Mux) Interface is orientated for erase and program
operations.
See the sections below, The Firmware Hub/Low
Pin Count (FWH/LPC) Bus Operations and Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) Bus Operations, for details of the bus operations on each
interface.
Firmware Hub/Low Pin Count (FWH/LPC) Bus
Operations
The M50FLW080 automatically identifies the type
of FWH/LPC protocol from the first received nibble
(START nibble) and decodes the data that it receives afterwards, according to the chosen FWH
or LPC mode. The Firmware Hub/Low Pin Count
(FWH/LPC) Interface consists of four data signals
(FWH0/LAD0-FWH3/LAD3), one control line
(FWH4/LFRAME) and a clock (CLK).
Protection against accidental or malicious data
corruption is achieved using two additional signals
(TBL and WP). And two reset signals (RP and
INIT) are available to put the memory into a known
state.
The data, control and clock signals are designed
to be compatible with PCI electrical specifications.
The interface operates with clock speeds of up to
33MHz.
The following operations can be performed using
the appropriate bus cycles: Bus Read, Bus Write,
Standby, Reset and Block Protection.
Bus Read. Bus Read operations are used to read
from the memory cells, specific registers in the
Command Interface or Firmware Hub/Low Pin
Count Registers. A valid Bus Read operation
starts on the rising edge of the Clock signal when
the Input Communication Frame, FWH4/
LFRAME, is Low, VIL, and the correct Start cycle
is present on FWH0/LAD0-FWH3/LAD3. On sub-
12/53
sequent clock cycles the Host will send to the
memory:
■
ID Select, Address and other control bits on
FWH0-FWH3 in FWH mode.
■
Type+Dir Address and other control bits on
LAD0-LAD3 in LPC mode.
The device responds by outputting Sync data until
the wait states have elapsed, followed by Data0Data3 and Data4-Data7.
See Table 6. and Table 8., and Figure 7. and Figure 9., for a description of the Field definitions for
each clock cycle of the transfer. See Table 26.,
and Figure 15., for details on the timings of the signals.
Bus Write. Bus Write operations are used to write
to the Command Interface or Firmware Hub/Low
Pin Count Registers. A valid Bus Write operation
starts on the rising edge of the Clock signal when
Input Communication Frame, FWH4/LFRAME, is
Low, VIL, and the correct Start cycle is present on
FWH0/LAD0-FWH3/LAD3. On subsequent Clock
cycles the Host will send to the memory:
■
ID Select, Address, other control bits, Data0Data3 and Data4-Data7 on FWH0-FWH3 in
FWH mode.
■
Cycle Type + Dir, Address, other control bits,
Data0-Data3 and Data4-Data7 on LAD0LAD3.
The device responds by outputting Sync data until
the wait states have elapsed.
See Table 7. and Table 9., and Figure 8. and Figure 10., for a description of the Field definitions for
each clock cycle of the transfer. See Table 26.,
and Figure 15., for details on the timings of the signals.
Bus Abort. The Bus Abort operation can be used
to abort the current bus operation immediately. A
Bus Abort occurs when FWH4/LFRAME is driven
Low, VIL, during the bus operation. The device
puts the Input/Output Communication pins,
FWH0/LAD0-FWH3/LAD3, to high impedance.
M50FLW080A, M50FLW080B
Note that, during a Bus Write operation, the Command Interface starts executing the command as
soon as the data is fully received. A Bus Abort during the final TAR cycles is not guaranteed to abort
the command. The bus, however, will be released
immediately.
Standby. When FWH4/LFRAME is High, VIH, the
device is put into Standby mode, where FWH0/
LAD0-FWH3/LAD3 are put into a high-impedance
state and the Supply Current is reduced to the
Standby level, ICC1.
Reset. During the Reset mode, all internal circuits
are switched off, the device is deselected, and the
outputs are put to high-impedance. The device is
in the Reset mode when Interface Reset, RP, or
CPU Reset, INIT, is driven Low, VIL. RP or INIT
must be held Low, VIL, for tPLPH. The memory reverts to the Read mode upon return from the Reset mode, and the Lock Registers return to their
default states regardless of their states before Reset. If RP or INIT goes Low, VIL, during a Program
or Erase operation, the operation is aborted and
the affected memory cells no longer contain valid
data. The device can take up to tPLRH to abort a
Program or Erase operation.
Block Protection. Block Protection can be
forced using the signals Top Block Lock, TBL, and
Write Protect, WP, regardless of the state of the
Lock Registers.
Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) Bus
Operations
The Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) Interface has a more traditional-style interface. The signals consist of a multiplexed address signals (A0A10), data signals, (DQ0-DQ7) and three control
signals (RC, G, W). An additional signal, RP, can
be used to reset the memory.
The Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) Interface is included for use by Flash Programming
equipment for faster factory programming. Only a
subset of the features available to the Firmware
Hub (FWH)/Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface are
available; these include all the Commands but exclude the Security features and other registers.
The following operations can be performed using
the appropriate bus cycles: Bus Read, Bus Write,
Output Disable and Reset.
When the Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux)
Interface is selected, all the blocks are unprotected. It is not possible to protect any blocks through
this interface.
Bus Read. Bus Read operations are used to read
the contents of the Memory Array, the Electronic
Signature or the Status Register. A valid Bus Read
operation begins by latching the Row Address and
Column Address signals into the memory using
the Address Inputs, A0-A10, and the Row/Column
Address Select RC. Write Enable (W) and Interface Reset (RP) must be High, VIH, and Output
Enable, G, Low, VIL. The Data Inputs/Outputs will
output the value, according to the timing constraints specified in Figure 17., and Table 28..
Bus Write. Bus Write operations are used to write
to the Command Interface. A valid Bus Write operation begins by latching the Row Address and Column Address signals into the memory using the
Address Inputs, A0-A10, and the Row/Column Address Select RC. The data should be set up on the
Data Inputs/Outputs; Output Enable, G, and Interface Reset, RP, must be High, VIH; and Write Enable, W, must be Low, VIL. The Data Inputs/
Outputs are latched on the rising edge of Write Enable, W. See Figure 18., and Table 29., for details
of the timing requirements.
Output Disable. The data outputs are high-impedance when the Output Enable, G, is at VIH.
Reset. During the Reset mode, all internal circuits
are switched off, the device is deselected, and the
outputs are put at high-impedance. The device is
in the Reset mode when RP is Low, VIL. RP must
be held Low, VIL for tPLPH. If RP goes Low, VIL,
during a Program or Erase operation, the operation is aborted, and the affected memory cells no
longer contain valid data. The memory can take up
to tPLRH to abort a Program or Erase operation.

COMMAND INTERFACE
All Bus Write operations to the device are interpreted by the Command Interface. Commands
consist of one or more sequential Bus Write operations. An internal Program/Erase Controller handles all timings, and verifies the correct execution
of the Program and Erase commands. The Program/Erase Controller provides a Status Register
whose output may be read at any time to monitor
the progress or the result of the operation.
The Command Interface reverts to the Read mode
when power is first applied, or when exiting from
Reset. Command sequences must be followed exactly. Any invalid combination of commands will be
ignored. See Table 11. for the available Command
Codes.

Read Memory Array
The following commands are the basic commands
used to read from, write to, and configure the device. The following text descriptions should be
read in conjunction with Table 13..
Read Memory Array Command. The
Read
Memory Array command returns the device to its
Read mode, where it behaves like a ROM or
EPROM. One Bus Write cycle is required to issue
the Read Memory Array command and return the
device to Read mode. Once the command is issued, the device remains in Read mode until another command is issued. From Read mode, Bus
Read operations access the memory array.
If the Program/Erase Controller is executing a Program or Erase operation, the device will not accept
18/53
any Read Memory Array commands until the operation has completed.
For a multibyte read, in the FWH mode, the address, that was transmitted with the command, will
be automatically aligned, according to the MSIZE
granularity. For example, if MSIZE=7, regardless
of any values that are provided for A6-A0, the first
output will be from the location for which A6-A0 are
all ‘0’s.
Read Status Register Command. The
Read
Status Register command is used to read the Status Register. One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the Read Status Register command. Once the
command is issued, subsequent Bus Read operations read the Status Register until another command is issued. See the section on the Status
Register for details on the definitions of the Status
Register bits.
Read Electronic Signature Command. The
Read Electronic Signature command is used to
read the Manufacturer Code and the Device Code.
One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the Read
Electronic Signature command. Once the command is issued, the Manufacturer Code and Device Code can be read using conventional Bus
Read operations, and the addresses shown in Table 12..
Table 12. Electronic Signature Codes

M50FLW080A
M50FLW080B
Address1
Data
...00000h
20h
...00001h
80h
81h
Note: 1. A22 should be ‘1’, and the ID lines and upper address bits
should be set according to the rules illustrated in Table 5.,
Table 6. and Table 8..
The device remains in this mode until another
command is issued. That is, subsequent Bus
Read operations continue to read the Manufacturer Code, or the Device Code, and not the Memory
Array.
Program Command. The Program command
can be used to program a value to one address in
the memory array at a time.
The Program command works by changing appropriate bits from ‘1’ to ‘0’. (It cannot change a bit
from ‘0’ back to ‘1’. Attempting to do so will not
modify the value of the bit. Only the Erase command can set bits back to ‘1’. and does so for all of
the bits in the block.)
Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the
Program command. The second Bus Write cycle
latches the address and data, and starts the Program/Erase Controller.
M50FLW080A, M50FLW080B
Once the command is issued, subsequent Bus
Read operations read the value in the Status Register. (See the section on the Status Register for
details on the definitions of the Status Register
bits.)
If the address falls in a protected block, the Program operation will abort, the data in the memory
array will not be changed, and the Status Register
will indicate the error.
During the Program operation, the memory will
only accept the Read Status Register command
and the Program/Erase Suspend command. All
other commands are ignored.
See Figure 22., for a suggested flowchart on using
the Program command. Typical Program times are
given in Table 18..
Quadruple Byte Program Command (A/A Mux
Interface). The Quadruple Byte Program Command is used to program four adjacent Bytes in
the memory array at a time. The four Bytes must
differ only for addresses A0 and A1. Programming
should not be attempted when VPP is not at VPPH.
Five Bus Write operations are required to issue the
command. The second, third and fourth Bus Write
cycles latch the respective addresses and data of
the first, second and third Bytes in the Program/
Erase Controller. The fifth Bus Write cycle latches
the address and data of the fourth Byte and starts
the Program/Erase Controller. Once the command
is issued, subsequent Bus Read operations read
the value in the Status Register. (See the section
on the Status Register for details on the definitions
of the Status Register bits.)
During the Quadruple Byte Program operation, the
memory will only accept the Read Status Register
and Program/Erase Suspend commands. All other
commands are ignored.
Note that the Quadruple Byte Program command
cannot change a bit set to ‘0’ back to ‘1’ and attempting to do so will not modify its value. One of
the erase commands must be used to set all of the
bits in the block to ‘1’.
See Figure 24., for a suggested flowchart on using
the Quadruple Byte Program command. Typical
Quadruple Byte Program times are given in Table
18..
Double/Quadruple Byte Program Command
(FWH Mode). The Double/Quadruple Byte Program Command can be used to program two/four
adjacent Bytes to the memory array at a time. The
two Bytes must differ only for address A0; the four
Bytes must differ only for addresses A0 and A1.
Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the
command. The second Bus Write cycle latches the
start address and two/four data Bytes and starts
the Program/Erase Controller. Once the command
is issued, subsequent Bus Read operations read
the contents of the Status Register. (See the section on the Status Register for details on the definitions of the Status Register bits.)
During the Double/Quadruple Byte Program operation the memory will only accept the Read Status
register and Program/Erase Suspend commands.
All other commands are ignored.
Note that the Double/Quadruple Byte Program
command cannot change a bit set to ‘0’ back to ‘1’
and attempting to do so will not modify its value.
One of the erase commands must be used to set
all of the bits in the block to ‘1’.
See Figure 23., for a suggested flowchart on using
the Double/Quadruple Byte Program command.
Typical Double/Quadruple Byte Program times
are given in Table 18..
Chip Erase Command. The Chip Erase Command erases the entire memory array, setting all
of the bits to ‘1’. All previous data in the memory
array are lost. This command, though, is only
available under the A/A Mux interface.
Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the
command, and to start the Program/Erase Controller. Once the command is issued, subsequent
Bus Read operations read the contents of the Status Register. (See the section on the Status Register for details on the definitions of the Status
Register bits.)
Erasing should not be attempted when VPP is not
at VPPH, otherwise the result is uncertain.
During the Chip Erase operation, the memory will
only accept the Read Status Register command.
All other commands are ignored.
See Figure 26., for a suggested flowchart on using
the Chip Erase command. Typical Chip Erase
times are given in Table 18..
Block Erase Command. The Block Erase command is used to erase a block, setting all of the bits
to ‘1’. All previous data in the block are lost.
Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the
command. The second Bus Write cycle latches the
block address and starts the Program/Erase Controller. Once the command is issued, subsequent
Bus Read operations read the contents of the Status Register. (See the section on the Status Register for details on the definitions of the Status
Register bits.)
If the block, or if at least one sector of the block (for
the blocks that are split into sectors), is protected
(FWH/LPC only) then the Block Erase operation
will abort, the data in the block will not be changed,
and the Status Register will indicate the error.
During the Block Erase operation the memory will
only accept the Read Status Register and Program/Erase Suspend commands. All other commands are ignored.
19/53
M50FLW080A, M50FLW080B
See Figure 27., for a suggested flowchart on using
the Block Erase command. Typical Block Erase
times are given in Table 18..
Sector Erase Command. The Sector Erase
command is used to erase a Uniform 4-KByte Sector, setting all of the bits to ‘1’. All previous data in
the sector are lost.
Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the
command. The second Bus Write cycle latches the
Sector address and starts the Program/Erase
Controller. Once the command is issued, subsequent Bus Read operations read the contents of
the Status Register. (See the section on the Status
Register for details on the definitions of the Status
Register bits.)
If the Sector is protected (FWH/LPC only), the
Sector Erase operation will abort, the data in the
Sector will not be changed, and the Status Register will indicate the error.
During the Sector Erase operation the memory will
only accept the Read Status Register and Program/Erase Suspend commands. All other commands are ignored.
See Figure 27., for a suggested flowchart on using
the Sector Erase Command. Typical Sector Erase
times are given in Table 18..
Clear Status Register Command. The
Clear
Status Register command is used to reset Status
Register bits SR1, SR3, SR4 and SR5 to ‘0’. One
Bus Write is required to issue the command. Once
the command is issued, the device returns to its
previous mode, subsequent Bus Read operations
continue to output the data from the same area, as
before.
Once set, these Status Register bits remain set.
They do not automatically return to ‘0’, for example, when a new program or erase command is issued. If an error has occurred, it is essential that
any error bits in the Status Register are cleared, by
issuing the Clear Status Register command, before attempting a new program or erase command.
20/53
Program/Erase Suspend Command. The Program/Erase Suspend command is used to pause
the Program/Erase Controller during a program or
Sector/Block Erase operation. One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the command.
Once the command has been issued, it is necessary to poll the Program/Erase Controller Status
bit until the Program/Erase Controller has paused.
No other commands are accepted until the Program/Erase Controller has paused. After the Program/Erase Controller has paused, the device
continues to output the contents of the Status Register until another command is issued.
During the polling period, between issuing the Program/Erase Suspend command and the Program/
Erase Controller pausing, it is possible for the operation to complete. Once the Program/Erase
Controller Status bit indicates that the Program/
Erase Controller is no longer active, the Program
Suspend Status bit or the Erase Suspend Status
bit can be used to determine if the operation has
completed or is suspended.
During Program/Erase Suspend, the Read Memory Array, Read Status Register, Read Electronic
Signature and Program/Erase Resume commands will be accepted by the Command Interface. Additionally, if the suspended operation was
Sector Erase or Block Erase then the program
command will also be accepted. However, it
should be noted that only the Sectors/Blocks not
being erased may be read or programmed correctly.
See Figure 25., and Figure 28., for suggested
flowcharts on using the Program/Erase Suspend
command. Typical times and delay durations are
given in Table 18..
Program/Erase Resume Command. The Program/Erase Resume command can be used to restart the Program/Erase Controller after a
Program/Erase Suspend has paused it. One Bus
Write cycle is required to issue the command.
Once the command is issued, subsequent Bus
Read operations read the contents of the Status
Register.

STATUS REGISTER
The Status Register provides information on the
current or previous Program or Erase operation.
The bits in the Status Register convey specific information about the progress of the operation.
To read the Status Register, the Read Status Register command can be issued. The Status Register
is automatically read after Program, Erase and
Program/Erase Resume commands are issued.
The Status Register can be read from any address.
The text descriptions, below, should be read in
conjunction with Table 14., where the meanings of
the Status Register bits are summarized.
Program/Erase Controller Status (Bit SR7).
This bit indicates whether the Program/Erase Controller is active or inactive. When the Program/
Erase Controller Status bit is ‘0’, the Program/
Erase Controller is active; when the bit is ‘1’, the
Program/Erase Controller is inactive.
The Program/Erase Controller Status is ‘0’ immediately after a Program/Erase Suspend command
is issued, until the Program/Erase Controller pauses. After the Program/Erase Controller pauses,
the bit is ‘1’.
The end of a Program and Erase operation can be
found by polling the Program/Erase Controller
Status bit can be polled. The other bits in the Status Register should not be tested until the Program/Erase Controller has completed the
operation (and the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is ‘1’).
After the Program/Erase Controller has completed
its operation, the Erase Status, Program Status,
VPP Status and Block/Sector Protection Status
bits should be tested for errors.
Erase Suspend Status (Bit SR6). This bit indicates that an Erase operation has been suspended, and that it is waiting to be resumed. The Erase
Suspend Status should only be considered valid
when the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is ‘1’
(Program/Erase Controller inactive). After a Program/Erase Suspend command is issued, the
memory may still complete the operation rather
than entering the Suspend mode.
When the Erase Suspend Status bit is ‘0’, the Program/Erase Controller is active or has completed
its operation. When the bit is ‘1’, a Program/Erase
Suspend command has been issued and the
memory is waiting for a Program/Erase Resume
command.
When a Program/Erase Resume command is issued, the Erase Suspend Status bit returns to ‘0’.
Erase Status (Bit SR5). This bit indicates if a
problem has occurred during the erasing of a Sector or Block. The Erase Status bit should be read
22/53
once the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is ‘1’
(Program/Erase Controller inactive).
When the Erase Status bit is ‘0’, the memory has
successfully verified that the Sector/Block has
been erased correctly. When the Erase Status bit
is ‘1’, the Program/Erase Controller has applied
the maximum number of pulses to the Sector/
Block and still failed to verify that the Sector/Block
has been erased correctly.
Once the Erase Status bit is set to ‘1’, it can only
be reset to ‘0’ by a Clear Status Register command, or by a hardware reset. If it is set to ‘1’, it
should be reset before a new Program or Erase
command is issued, otherwise the new command
will appear to have failed, too.
Program Status (Bit SR4). This bit indicates if a
problem has occurred during the programming of
a byte. The Program Status bit should be read
once the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is ‘1’
(Program/Erase Controller inactive).
When the Program Status bit is ‘0’, the memory
has successfully verified that the byte has been
programmed correctly. When the Program Status
bit is ‘1’, the Program/Erase Controller has applied
the maximum number of pulses to the byte and still
failed to verify that the byte has been programmed
correctly.
Once the Program Status bit is set to ‘1’, it can only
be reset to ‘0’ by a Clear Status Register command, or by a hardware reset. If it is set to ‘1’, it
should be reset before a new Program or Erase
command is issued, otherwise the new command
will appear to have failed, too.
VPP Status (Bit SR3). This bit indicates whether
an invalid voltage was detected on the VPP pin at
the beginning of a Program or Erase operation.
The VPP pin is only sampled at the beginning of
the operation. Indeterminate results can occur if
VPP becomes invalid during a Program or Erase
operation.
Once the VPP Status bit set to ‘1’, it can only be reset to ‘0’ by a Clear Status Register command, or
by a hardware reset. If it is set to ‘1’, it should be
reset before a new Program or Erase command is
issued, otherwise the new command will appear to
have failed, too.
Program Suspend Status (Bit SR2). This bit indicates that a Program operation has been suspended, and that it is waiting to be resumed. The
Program Suspend Status should only be considered valid when the Program/Erase Controller Status bit is ‘1’ (Program/Erase Controller inactive).
After a Program/Erase Suspend command is issued, the memory may still complete the operation
instead of entering the Suspend mode.
M50FLW080A, M50FLW080B
When the Program Suspend Status bit is ‘0’, the
Program/Erase Controller is active, or has completed its operation. When the bit is ‘1’, a Program/
Erase Suspend command has been issued and
the memory is waiting for a Program/Erase Resume command.
When a Program/Erase Resume command is issued, the Program Suspend Status bit returns to
‘0’.
Block/Sector Protection Status (Bit SR1). The
Block/Sector Protection Status bit can be used to
identify if the Program or Erase operation has tried
to modify the contents of a protected block or sector. When the Block/Sector Protection Status bit is
reset to ‘0’, no Program or Erase operations have
been attempted on protected blocks or sectors
since the last Clear Status Register command or
hardware reset. When the Block/Sector Protection
Status bit is ‘1’, a Program or Erase operation has
been attempted on a protected block or sector.
Once it is set to ‘1’, the Block/Sector Protection
Status bit can only be reset to ‘0’ by a Clear Status
Register command or by a hardware reset. If it is
set to ‘1’, it should be reset before a new Program
or Erase command is issued, otherwise the new
command will appear to have failed, too.
Using the A/A Mux Interface, the Block/Sector Protection Status bit is always ‘0’.
Reserved (Bit SR0). Bit 0 of the Status Register
is reserved. Its value should be masked.

FIRMWARE HUB/LOW PIN COUNT (FWH/LPC) INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
REGISTERS
When the Firmware Hub Interface/Low Pin Count
is selected, several additional registers can be accessed. These registers control the protection status of the Blocks/Sectors, read the General
Purpose Input pins and identify the memory using
the manufacturer code. See Table 15. for the
memory map of the Configuration Registers. The
Configuration registers are accessed directly without using any specific command code. A single
Bus Write or Bus Read Operation, with the appropriate address (including A22=0), is all that is
needed.
Lock Registers
The Lock Registers control the protection status of
the Blocks/Sectors. Each Block/Sector has its own
Lock Register. Three bits within each Lock Register control the protection of each Block/Sector: the
Write Lock Bit, the Read Lock Bit and the Lock
Down Bit.
The Lock Registers can be read and written. Care
should be taken, though, when writing. Once the
Lock Down Bit is set, ‘1’, further modifications to
the Lock Register cannot be made until it is
cleared again by a reset or power-up.
See Table 16. for details on the bit definitions of
the Lock Registers.
Write Lock. The Write Lock Bit determines
whether the contents of the Block/Sector can be
modified (using the Program or Erase Command).
When the Write Lock Bit is set, ‘1’, the Block/Sector is write protected – any operations that attempt
to change the data in the Block/Sector will fail, and
the Status Register will report the error. When the
Write Lock Bit is reset, ‘0’, the Block/Sector is not
write protected by the Lock Register, and may be
modified, unless it is write protected by some other
means.
If the Top Block Lock signal, TBL, is Low, VIL, then
the Top Block (Block 15) is write protected, and
cannot be modified. Similarly, if the Write Protect
signal, WP, is Low, VIL, then the Main Blocks
(Blocks 0 to 14) are write protected, and cannot be
modified. For details, see APPENDIX A. and Table
16..
After power-up, or reset, the Write Lock Bit is always set to ‘1’ (write-protected).
Read Lock. The Read Lock bit determines
whether the contents of the Block/Sector can be
read (in Read mode). When the Read Lock Bit is
set, ‘1’, the Block/Sector is read protected – any
operation that attempts to read the contents of the
Block/Sector will read 00h instead. When the
Read Lock Bit is reset, ‘0’, read operations are allowed in the Block/Sector, and return the value of
the data that had been programmed in the Block/
Sector.
After power-up, or reset, the Read Lock Bit is always reset to ‘0’ (not read-protected).
Lock Down. The Lock Down Bit provides a
mechanism for protecting software data from simple hacking and malicious attack. When the Lock
Down Bit is set, ‘1’, further modification to the
Write Lock, Read Lock and Lock Down Bits cannot
be performed. A reset, or power-up, is required before changes to these bits can be made. When the
Lock Down Bit is reset, ‘0’, the Write Lock, Read
Lock and Lock Down Bits can be changed.

3. A0 and/or A1 are treated as Don’t Care (A0 for Double Byte Program and A1-A0 for Quadruple Byte Program).
For Double Byte Program: Starting at the Start Address, the first data Byte is programmed at the even address, and the second at
the odd address.
For Quadruple Byte Program: Starting at the Start Address, the first data Byte is programmed at the address that has A1-A0 at 00,
the second at the address that has A1-A0 at 01, the third at the address that has A1-A0 at 10, and the fourth at the address that
has A1-A0 at 11.
