GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am28F020 is a 2 Megabit Flash memory organized as 256 Kbytes of 8 bits each. AMD’s Flash memories offer the most cost-effective and reliable read/
write non-volatile random access memor y. The
Am28F020 is packaged in 32-pin PDIP, PLCC, and
TSOP versions. It is designed to be reprogrammed and
erased in-system or in standard EPROM programmers.
Th e Am 28F 020 i s eras ed w hen s h ip ped from
the factory.
The standard Am28F020 offers access times of as fast
as 70 ns, allowing high speed microprocessors to
operate without wait states. To eliminate bus contention, the device has separate chip enable (CE#) and
output enable (OE#) controls.
AMD’s Flash memories augment EPROM functionality
with in-circuit electrical erasure and programming. The
Am28F020 uses a command register to manage this
functionality, while maintaining a JEDEC-standard 32pin pinout. The command register allows for 100% TTL
level control inputs and fixed power supply levels during
erase and programming, while maintaining maximum
EPROM compatibility.
AMD’s Flash technology reliably stores memory contents even after 10,000 erase and program cycles. The
AMD cell is designed to optimize the erase and pro-

gramming mechanisms. In addition, the combination of
advanced tunnel oxide processing and low internal
electric fields for erase and programming operations
produces reliable cycling. The Am28F020 uses a
12.0±5% VPP supply input to perform the Flasherase
and Flashrite functions.
The highest degree of latch-up protection is achieved
with AMD’s proprietary non-epi process. Latch-up protection is provided for stresses up to 100 mA on
address and data pins from –1 V to VCC +1 V.
The Am28F020 is byte programmable using 10 µs
programming pulses in accordance with AMD’s
Flashrite programming algorithm. The typical room
temperature programming time of the Am28F020 is
four seconds. The entire chip is bulk erased using 10
ms erase pulses according to AMD’s Flasherase
algorithm. Typical erasure at room temperature is
accomplished in less than one second. The windowed
package and the 15–20 minutes required for EPROM
erasure using ultraviolet light are eliminated.
Commands are written to the command register using
standard microprocessor write timings. Register contents serve as input to an internal state-machine, which
controls the erase and programming circuitry. During
write cycles, the command register internally latches
addresses and data needed for the programming and
erase operations. For system design simplification, the
Am28F020 is designed to support either WE# or CE#
controlled w rites. During a system write cycle,
addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE# or
CE#, whichever occurs last. Data is latched on the rising
edge of WE# or CE#, whichever occurs first. To simplify
discussion, the WE# pin is used as the write cycle
control pin throughout the rest of this data sheet. All
setup and hold times are with respect to the WE# signal.
AMD’s Flash technology combines years of EPROM
and EEPROM experience to produce the highest levels
of quality, reliability, and cost effectiveness. The
Am28F020 electrically erases all bits simultaneously
using Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The bytes are programmed one byte at a time using the EPROM
programming mechanism of hot electron injection.

BASIC PRINCIPLES
The device uses 100% TTL-level control inputs to
manage the command register. Erase and reprogramming operations use a fixed 12.0 V ± 5% high
voltage input.
formation must be supplied with the Erase-verify
command. This command verifies the margin and
outputs the addressed byte in order to compare the
array data with FFh data (Byte erased).
After successful data verification the Erase-verify
command is written again with new address information. Each byte of the array is sequentially verified in this manner.
Read Only Memory
Without high V PP voltage, the device functions as a
read only memory and operates like a standard
EPROM. The control inputs still manage traditional
read, standby, output disable, and Auto select modes.
Command Register
The command register is enabled only when high voltage is applied to the V PP pin. The erase and reprogramming operations are only accessed via the
register. In addition, two-cycle commands are required
for erase and reprogramming operations. The traditional read, standby, output disable, and Auto select
modes are available via the register.
The device’s command register is written using standard microprocessor write timings. The register controls an internal state machine that manages all device
operations. For system design simplification, the device is designed to support either WE# or CE# controlled writes. During a system write cycle, addresses
are latched on the falling edge of WE# or CE# whichever occurs last. Data is latched on the rising edge of
WE# or CE# whichever occur first. To simplify the following discussion, the WE# pin is used as the write
cycle control pin throughout the rest of this text. All
setup and hold times are with respect to the WE# signal.
Overview of Erase/Program Operations
Flasherase™ Sequence
A multiple step command sequence is required to
erase the Flash device (a two-cycle Erase command
and repeated one cycle verify commands).
Note: The Flash memory array must be completely
programmed to 0’s prior to erasure. Refer to the
Flashrite™ Programming Algorithm.
1. Erase Setup: Write the Setup Erase command to
the command register.
2. Erase: Write the Erase command (same as Setup
Erase command) to the command register again.
The second command initiates the erase operation.
The system software routines must now time-out
the erase pulse width (10 ms) prior to issuing the
Erase-verify command. An integrated stop timer
prevents any possibility of overerasure.
3. Erase-Verify: Write the Erase-verify command to
the command register. This command terminates
the erase operation. After the erase operation,
each byte of the array must be verified. Address in-
If data of the addressed location is not verified, the
Erase sequence is repeated until the entire array is
successfully verified or the sequence is repeated
1000 times.
Flashrite Programming Sequence
A three step command sequence (a two-cycle Program
command and one cycle Verify command) is required
to program a byte of the Flash array. Refer to the Flashrite Algorithm.
1. Program Setup: Write the Setup Program command to the command register.
2. Program: Write the Program command to the command register with the appropriate Address and
Data. The system software routines must now timeout the program pulse width (10 µs) prior to issuing
the Program-verify command. An integrated stop
timer prevents any possibility of overprogramming.
3. Program-Verify: Write the Program-verify command to the command register. This command terminates the programming operation. In addition,
this command verifies the margin and outputs the
byte just programmed in order to compare the array
data with the original data programmed. After successful data verification, the programming sequence is initiated again for the next byte address to
be programmed.
If data is not verified successfully, the Program sequence is repeated until a successful comparison is
verified or the sequence is repeated 25 times.
Data Protection
The device is designed to offer protection against accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious
system level signals that may exist during power transitions. The device powers up in its read only state. Also,
with its control register architecture, alteration of the
memory contents only occurs after successful completion of specific command sequences.
The device also incorporates several features to prevent inadvertent write cycles resulting fromVCC powerup and power-down transitions or system noise.
Low VCC Write Inhibit
To avoid initiation of a write cycle during VCC power-up
and power-down, the device locks out write cycles for
Am28F020

V CC < V LKO (see DC Characteristics section for
voltages). When V CC < VLKO, the command register is
disabled, all internal program/erase circuits are
disabled, and the device resets to the read mode. The
device ignores all writes until V CC > V LKO. The user
must ensure that the control pins are in the correct logic
state when VCC > VLKO to prevent uninitentional writes.
Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Noise pulses of less than 10 ns (typical) on OE#, CE#
or WE# will not initiate a write cycle.
Logical Inhibit
Writing is inhibited by holding any one of OE# = VIL, CE#
= V IH or WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle CE# and
WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a logical one.
Power-Up Write Inhibit
Power-up of the device with WE# = CE# = V IL and
OE# = V IH will not accept commands on the rising
edge of WE#. The internal state machine is automatically reset to the read mode on power-up.

Notes:
1. VPPL may be grounded, connected with a resistor to ground, or < VCC + 2.0 V. VPPH is the programming voltage specified for
the device. Refer to the DC characteristics. When VPP = VPPL, memory contents can be read but not written or erased.
2. Manufacturer and device codes may also be accessed via a command register write sequence. Refer to Table 2.
3. 11.5 < VID < 13.0 V. Minimum V ID rise time and fall time (between 0 and VID voltages) is 500 ns.
4. Read operation with VPP = VPPH may access array data or the Auto select codes.
5. With VPP at high voltage, the standby current is ICC + IPP (standby).
6. Refer to Table 3 for valid DIN during a write operation.
7. All inputs are Don’t Care unless otherwise stated, where Don’t Care is either VIL or VIH levels. In the Auto select mode all
addresses except A9 and A0 must be held at VIL.
8. If VCC ≤ 1.0 Volt, the voltage difference between VPP and VCC should not exceed 10.0 volts. Also, the Am28F010 has a VPP
rise time and fall time specification of 500 ns minimum.

Am28F020
READ ONLY MODE
When V PP is less than VCC + 2 V, the command register
is inactive. The device can either read array or autoselect data, or be standby mode.
Read
The device functions as a read only memory when VPP
< VCC + 2 V. The device has two control functions. Both
must be satisfied in order to output data. CE# controls
power to the device. This pin should be used for specific device selection. OE# controls the device outputs
and should be used to gate data to the output pins if a
device is selected.
Address access time tACC is equal to the delay from
stable addresses to valid output data. The chip enable
access time tCE is the delay from stable addresses and
stable CE# to valid data at the output pins. The output
enable access time is the delay from the falling edge of
OE# to valid data at the output pins (assuming the addresses have been stable at least tACC–tOE).
Standby Mode
Output Disable
Output from the device is disabled when OE# is at a
logic high level. When disabled, output pins are in a
high impedance state.
Auto Select
Flash memories can be programmed in-system or in a
standard PROM programmer. The device may be soldered to the circuit board upon receipt of shipment and
programmed in-system. Alternatively, the device may
initially be programmed in a PROM programmer prior
to soldering the device to the board.
The Auto select mode allows the reading out of a binary
code from the device that will identify its manufacturer
and type. This mode is intended for the purpose
of automatically matching the device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algor ithm. Thi s mode is functional over the enti re
temperature range of the device.
Programming In a PROM Programmer
The device has two standby modes. The CMOS
standby mode (CE# input held at VCC ± 0.5 V), consumes less than 100 µA of current. TTL standby mode
(CE# is held at VIH) reduces the current requirements
to less than 1mA. When in the standby mode the outputs are in a high impedance state, independent of the
OE# input.
If the device is deselected during erasure, programming, or program/erase verification, the device will
draw active current until the operation is terminated.
To activate this mode, the programming equipment
must force VID (11.5 V to 13.0 V) on address A9. Two
identifier bytes may then be sequenced from the device
outputs by toggling address A0 from VIL to VIH. All other
address lines must be held at VIL, and VPP must be
less than or equal to VCC + 2.0 V while using this Auto
select mode. Byte 0 (A0 = V IL) represents the manufacturer code and byte 1 (A0 = VIH) the device identifier
code. For the device these two bytes are given in Table
2 of the device data sheet. All identifiers for manufacturer and device codes will exhibit odd parity with the
MSB (DQ7) defined as the parity bit.

ERASE, PROGRAM, AND READ MODE
When V PP is equal to 12.0 V ± 5%, the command register is active. All functions are available. That is, the
device can program, erase, read array or autoselect
data, or be standby mode.
Write Operations
High voltage must be applied to the VPP pin in order to
activate the command register. Data written to the register serves as input to the internal state machine. The
output of the state machine determines the operational
function of the device.
The command register does not occupy an addressable
memory location. The register is a latch that stores the
command, along with the address and data information
needed to execute the command. The register is written
by bringing WE# and CE# to VIL, while OE# is at VIH.
Addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE#, while
data is latched on the rising edge of the WE# pulse.
Standard microprocessor write timings are used.
The device requires the OE# pin to be V IH for write operations. This condition eliminates the possibility for
bus contention during programming operations. In
order to write, OE# must be VIH, and CE# and WE#
must be V IL. If any pin is not in the correct state a write
command will not be executed.
Table 3.
Refer to AC Write Characteristics and the Erase/Programming Waveforms for specific timing parameters.
Command Definitions
The contents of the command register default to 00h
(Read Mode) in the absence of high voltage applied to
the V PP pin. The device operates as a read only memory. High voltage on the V PP pin enables the command
register. Device operations are selected by writing specific data codes into the command register. Table 3 defines these register commands.
Read Command
Memory contents can be accessed via the read command when V PP is high. To read from the device, write
00h into the command register. Standard microprocessor read cycles access data from the memory. The device will remain in the read mode until the command
register contents are altered.
The command register defaults to 00h (read mode)
upon VPP power-up. The 00h (Read Mode) register default helps ensure that inadvertent alteration of the
memory contents does not occur during the V PP power
transition. Refer to the AC Read Characteristics and
Waveforms for the specific timing parameters.

FLASHERASE ERASE SEQUENCE
Erase Setup
Erase Setup is the first of a two-cycle erase command.
It is a command-only operation that stages the device
for bulk chip erase. The array contents are not altered
with this command. 20h is written to the command register in order to perform the Erase Setup operation.
Erase
The second two-cycle erase command initiates the
bulk erase operation. You must write the Erase command (20h) again to the register. The erase operation
begins with the rising edge of the WE# pulse. The
erase operation must be terminated by writing a new
command (Erase-verify) to the register.
This two step sequence of the Setup and Erase commands helps to ensure that memory contents are not
accidentally erased. Also, chip erasure can only occur
when high voltage is applied to the VPP pin and all control pins are in their proper state. In absence of this high
voltage, memory contents cannot be altered. Refer to
AC Erase Characteristics and Waveforms for specific
timing parameters.
Note: The Flash memory device must be fully
programmed to 00h data prior to erasure. This
equalizes the charge on all memory cells ensuring
reliable erasure.
Erase-Verify Command
The erase operation erases all bytes of the array
in parallel. After the erase operation, all bytes must be
sequentially verified. The Erase-verify operation is initi-
ated by writing A0h to the register. The byte address to
be verified must be supplied with the command. Addresses are latched on the falling edge of the WE#
pulse or CE# pulse, whichever occurs later. The rising
edge of the WE# pulse terminates the erase operation.
Margin Verify
During the Erase-verify operation, the device applies
an i nter nally generated margin vol tage to the
addressed byte. Reading FFh from the addressed byte
indicates that all bits in the byte are properly erased.
Verify Next Address
You must write the Erase-verify command with the appropriate address to the register prior to verification of
each address. Each new address is latched on the falling edge of WE# or CE# pulse, whichever occurs later.
The process continues for each byte in the memory
array until a byte does not return FFh data or all the
bytes in the array are accessed and verified.
If an address is not verified to FFh data, the entire chip
is erased again (refer to Erase Setup/Erase). Erase
verification then resumes at the address that failed to
verify. Erase is complete when all bytes in the array
have been verified. The device is now ready to be programmed. At this point, the verification operation is terminated by writing a valid command (e.g. Program
Setup) to the command register. Figure 1 and Table 4,
the Flasherase electrical erase algorithm, illustrate how
commands and bus operations are combined to perform electrical erasure. Refer to AC Erase Characteristics and Waveforms for specific timing parameters.

Flasherase Electrical Erase Algorithm
Am28F020
11559G-6
FLASHERASE ELECTRICAL ERASE ALGORITHM
This Flash memory device erases the entire array in
parallel. The erase time depends on VPP, temperature,
and number of erase/program cycles on the device. In
general, reprogramming time increases as the number
of erase/program cycles increases.
The Flasherase electrical erase algorithm employs an
interactive closed loop flow to simultaneously erase all
bits in the array. Erasure begins with a read of the memory contents. The device is erased when shipped from
the factory. Reading FFh data from the device would
immediately be followed by executing the Flashrite programming algorithm with the appropriate data pattern.
Should the device be currently programmed, data other
than FFh will be returned from address locations.
Follow the Flasherase algorithm. Uniform and reliable
erasure is ensured by first programming all bits in the
device to their charged state (Data = 00h). This is
accomplished using the Flashrite Programming
Table 4.
Bus Operations
algorithm. Erasure then continues with an initial erase
operation. Erase verification (Data = FFh) begins at
address 0000h and continues through the array to the
l a s t a dd re s s , o r u n ti l d ata o th er th an FF h i s
encountered. If a byte fails to verify, the device is
erase d agai n. W i th each e ra se operati on , a n
increasing number of bytes verify to the erased state.
Typically, devices are erased in less than 100 pulses
(one second). Erase efficiency may be improved by
storing the address of the last byte that fails to verify in
a register. Following the next erase operation,
verification may start at the stored address location. A
total of 1000 erase pulses are allowed per reprogram
cycle, which corresponds to approximately 10 seconds
of cumulative erase time. The entire sequence of erase
and byte verification is performed with high voltage
applied to the V PP pin. Figure 1 illustrates the electrical
erase algorithm.

Analysis of Erase Timing Waveform
Time-Out
Note: This analysis does not include the requirement
to program the entire array to 00h data prior to erasure.
Refer to the Flashrite Programming algorithm.
A software timing routine (10 ms duration) must be initiated on the rising edge of the WE# pulse of section B.
Erase Setup/Erase
This analysis illustrates the use of two-cycle erase
commands (section A and B). The first erase command (20h) is a Setup command and does not affect
the array data (section A). The second erase command (20h) initiates the erase operation (section B)
on the rising edge of this WE# pulse. All bytes of the
memory array are erased in parallel. No address information is required.
The erase pulse occurs in section C.
14
Note: An integrated stop timer prevents any possibility of overerasure by limiting each time-out period of
10 ms.
Erase-Verify
Upon completion of the erase software timing routine,
the microprocessor must write the Erase-verify command (A0h). This command terminates the erase operation on the rising edge of the WE# pulse (section D).
The Erase-verify command also stages the device for
data verification (section F).
After each erase operation each byte must be verified.
The byte address to be verified must be supplied with
Am28F020
the Erase-verify command (section D). Addresses are
latched on the falling edge of the WE# pulse.
Another software timing routine (6 µs duration) must be
executed to allow for generation of internal voltages for
margin checking and read operation (section E).
During Erase-verification (section F) each address that
returns FFh data is successfully erased. Each address
of the array is sequentially verified in this manner by repeating sections D thru F until the entire array is verified or an address fails to verify. Should an address
FLASHRITE PROGRAMMING SEQUENCE
Program Setup
The device is programmed byte by byte. Bytes may be
programmed sequentially or at random. Program Setup
is the first of a two-cycle program command. It stages
the device for byte programming. The Program Setup
operation is performed by writing 40h to the command
register.
Program
Only after the program Setup operation is completed
will the next WE# pulse initiate the active programming
operation. The appropriate address and data for programming must be available on the second WE# pulse.
Addresses and data are internally latched on the falling
and rising edge of the WE# pulse respectively. The rising edge of WE# also begins the programming operation. You must write the Program-verify command to
terminate the programming operation. This two step
sequence of the Setup and Program commands helps
to ensure that memory contents are not accidentally
written. Also, programming can only occur when high
voltage is applied to the V PP pin and all control pins are
in their proper state. In absence of this high voltage,
memory contents cannot be programmed.
Refer to AC Characteristics and Waveforms for specific
timing parameters.
Program Verify Command
Following each programming operation, the byte just
programmed must be verified.
Write C0h into the command register in order to initiate
the Program-verify operation. The rising edge of this
location fail to verify to FFh data, erase the device
again. Repeat sections A thru F. Resume verification
(section D) with the failed address.
Each data change sequence allows the device to use
up to 1,000 erase pulses to completely erase. Typically
100 erase pulses are required.
Note: All address locations must be programmed to
00h prior to erase. This equalizes the charge on all
memory cells and ensures reliable erasure.
WE pulse terminates the programming operation. The
Program-verify operation stages the device for verification of the last byte programmed. Addresses were previously latched. No new information is required.
Margin Verify
During the Program-verify operation, the device applies
an internally generated margin voltage to the addressed byte. A normal microprocessor read cycle outputs the data. A successful comparison between the
programmed byte and the true data indicates that the
byte was successfully programmed. The original programmed data should be stored for comparison. Programming then proceeds to the next desired byte
location. Should the byte fail to verify, reprogram (refer
to Program Setup/Program). Figure 3 and Table 5 indicate how instructions are combined with the bus operations to perform byte programming. Refer to AC
Programming Characteristics and Waveforms for specific timing parameters.
Flashrite Programming Algorithm
The device Flashrite Programming algorithm employs
an interactive closed loop flow to program data byte by
byte. Bytes may be programmed sequentially or at random. The Flashrite Programming algorithm uses 10 µs
programming pulses. Each operation is followed by a
byte verification to determine when the addressed byte
has been successfully programmed. The program algorithm allows for up to 25 programming operations per
byte per reprogramming cycle. Most bytes verify after
the first or second pulse. The entire sequence of programming and byte verification is performed with high
voltage applied to the VPP pin. Figure 3 and Table 5 illustrate the programming algorithm.

ANALYSIS OF PROGRAM TIMING WAVEFORMS
Program Setup/Program
Time-Out
Two-cycle write commands are required for program
operations (section A and B). The first program command (40h) is a Setup command and does not affect
the array data (section A).The second program command latches address and data required for programming on the falling and rising edge of WE# respectively
(section B). The rising edge of this WE# pulse (section
B) also initiates the programming pulse. The device is
programmed on a byte by byte basis either sequentially
or randomly.
A software timing routine (10 µs duration) must be initiated on the rising edge of the WE# pulse of section B.
The program pulse occurs in section C.
18
Note: An integrated stop timer prevents any possibility
of overprogramming by limiting each time-out period of
10 µs.
Program-Verify
Upon completion of the program timing routine, the microprocessor must write the program-verify command
(C0h). This command terminates the programming operation on the rising edge of the WE# pulse (section D).
The program-verify command also stages the device
for data verification (section F). Another software timing
Am28F020
routine (6 µs duration) must be executed to allow for
generation of internal voltages for margin checking and
read operations (section E).
During program-verification (section F) each byte just
programmed is read to compare array data with original
program data. When successfully verified, the next desired address is programmed. Should a byte fail to verify, reprogram the byte (repeat section A thru F). Each
data change sequence allows the device to use up to
25 program pulses per byte. Typically, bytes are verified
within one or two pulses.
Algorithm Timing Delays
There are four different timing delays associated with
the Flasherase and Flashrite algorithms:
1. The first delay is associated with the VPP rise-time
when VPP first turns on. The capacitors on the VPP
bus cause an RC ramp. After switching on the VPP,
the delay required is proportional to the number of
devices being erased and the 0.1 mF/device. VPP
must reach its final value 100 ns before commands
are executed.
2. The second delay time is the erase time pulse width
(10 ms). A software timing routine should be run by
the local microprocessor to time out the delay. The
erase operation must be terminated at the conclusion of the timing routine or prior to executing any
system interrupts that may occur during the erase
operation. To ensure proper device operation, write
the Erase-verify operation after each pulse.
3. A third delay time is required for each programming
pulse width (10 ms). The programming algorithm is
interactive and verifies each byte after a program
pulse. The program operation must be terminated at
the conclusion of the timing routine or prior to executing any system interrupts that may occur during
the programming operation.
4. A fourth timing delay associated with both the
Flasherase and Flashrite algorithms is the write recovery time (6 ms). During this time internal circuitry
is changing voltage levels from the erase/ program
level to those used for margin verify and read operations. An attempt to read the device during this period will result in possible false data (it may appear
the device is not properly erased or programmed).
Note: Software timing routines should be written in
machine language for each of the delays. Code written
in machine language requires knowledge of the appropriate microprocessor clock speed in order to accurately time each delay.
Parallel Device Erasure
Many applications will use more than one Flash
memory device. Total erase time may be minimized by
implementing a parallel erase algorithm. Flash
memories may erase at different rates. Therefore each
device must be verified separately. When a device is
completely erased and verified use a masking code to
prevent further erasure. The other devices will continue
to erase until verified. The masking code applied could
be the read command (00h).
Power-Up/Power-Down Sequence
The device powers-up in the Read only mode. Power
supply sequencing is not required. Note that if VCC ≤
1.0 Volt, the voltage difference between VPP and V CC
should not exceed 10.0 Volts. Also, the device has VPP
rise time and fall time specification of 500 ns minimum.
Reset Command
The Reset command initializes the Flash memory device to the Read mode. In addition, it also provides the
user with a safe method to abort any device operation
(including program or erase).
The Reset command must be written two consecutive
times after the setup Program command (40h). This will
reset the device to the Read mode.
Following any other Flash command write the Reset
command once to the device. This will safely abort any
previous operation and initialize the device to the
Read mode.
The Setup Program command (40h) is the only command that requires a two sequence reset cycle. The
first Reset command is interpreted as program data.
However, FFh data is considered null data during programming operations (memory cells are only programmed from a logical “1” to “0”). The second Reset
command safely aborts the programming operation
and resets the device to the Read mode.
Memory contents are not altered in any case.
This detailed information is for your reference. It may
prove easier to always issue the Reset command two
consecutive times. This eliminates the need to determine if you are in the setup Program state or not.
Programming In-System
Flash memories can be programmed in-system or in a
standard PROM programmer. The device may be soldered to the circuit board upon receipt of shipment and
programmed in-system. Alternatively, the device may
initially be programmed in a PROM programmer prior
to soldering the device to the board.
Am28F020
19
Auto Select Command
AMD’s Flash memories are designed for use in applications where the local CPU alters memory contents. Accordingly, manufacturer and device codes must be
accessible while the device resides in the target system. PROM programmers typically access the signature codes by raising A9 to a high voltage. However,
multiplexing high voltage onto address lines is not a
generally desired system design practice.
20
The device contains an Auto Select operation to supplement traditional PROM programming methodology.
The operation is initiated by writing 80h or 90h into the
command register. Following this command, a read
cycle address 0000h retrieves the manufacturer code
of 01h. A read cycle from address 0001h returns the
device code. To terminate the operation, it is necessary
to write another valid command, such as Reset (FFh),
into the register.

Notes:
1. Read timing characteristics during read/write operations are the same as during read-only operations. Refer to AC
Characteristics for Read Only operations.
2. Maximum pulse widths not required because the on-chip program/erase stop timer will terminate the pulse widths internally
on the device.
3. Chip Enable-Controlled Writes: Write operations are driven by the valid combination of Chip Enable (CE#) and Write Enable
(WE#). In systems where CE# defines the Write Pulse Width (within a longer WE# timing waveform) all setup, hold and
inactive WE# times should be measured relative to the CE# waveform.
4. Not 100% tested.

Notes:
1. 25°C, 12 V VPP.
2. Maximum time specified is lower than worst case. Worst case is derived from the Flasherase/Flashrite pulse count
(Flasherase = 1000 max and Flashrite = 25 max). Typical worst case for program and erase is significantly less than the actual
device limit.
