GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29LL800B is an 8 M bit, 2.2 volt-only Flash
memory organized as 1,048,576 bytes or 524,288
words. The device is offered in 44-pin SO and 48-pin
TSOP packages. The word-wide data (x16) appears on
DQ15–DQ0; the byte-wide (x8) data appears on DQ7–
DQ0. This device requires only a single, 2.2 volt V
supply to perform read, program, and erase operations. A standard EPROM programmer can also be
used to program and erase the device.
This device is manufactured using AMD’ s 0. 35 µm process technology, and offers all the features and benefits of the Am29LV800, which was manufactured using
0.5 µm process technology. In addition, the
Am29LL800B features unlock bypass programming
and in-system sector protection/unprotection.
The standard device offers access times of 150 and
200 ns, 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.
The device requires only a single 2. 2 v o lt po wer sup-ply 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 single-power-supply Flash standard. Commands are written to the command register using standard microproc essor write timing s. Register contents
serve as input to an internal sta te-machine that co ntrols the erase and programming circuit ry. Write cycles
also internally latch addresses and data needed f or 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. This initiates the EmbeddedProgram algorithm—an internal algorithm that automatically times the program pulse widths and verifies
proper cell margin. The Unlock Bypass mode facilitates faster programming times by requir ing only two
write cycles to program data instead of four.
Device erasure occurs by ex ecuting the erase command
sequence. This initiates the Embedded Erase algorithm—an i nternal algorithm that autom atically prepro grams the array (if it is not already programmed) before
CC
executing the erase operation. During erase, the device
automatically times the erase pulse widths and verifies
proper cell margin.
The host system can detect whether a program or
erase operation is complete by observing the RY/BY#
pin, or 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 archite cture allo ws m emory sect ors
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
detector that automatically in hibits write opera-
V
CC
tions during power transitions. The hardware sector
protection feature disables both program and erase
operations in any combination of the sectors of memory. This can be achieved in-system or via programming equipment.
The Erase Suspend 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 achiev ed.
The hardware RESET# pi n terminates any operation
in progress and resets the internal state machine to
reading array dat a. The RESET# pin ma y be tied to the
system reset circuitry. A system reset would thus also
reset the device, enabling the system microprocessor
to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.
The device off ers two power-sa ving f eatures. When addresses have been stable for a specified amount of
time, the device enters the automatic sleep m ode.
The system can also place the de vice into the standbymode. Power consumption is greatly reduced in both
these modes.
AMD’s Flash technology combines 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

Word/Byte Configuration
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device data I/O
pins DQ15–DQ0 operate in the by te or word configur ation. If the BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘1’, the device is in
word configuration, DQ15–DQ0 are active and controlled by CE# and OE#.
If the BYTE# pin is set at logic ‘0’, the device is in byte
configuration, and only data I/O pins DQ0–DQ7 are active and controlled by CE# and OE#. The data I/O pins
DQ8–DQ14 are tri-stated, and the DQ15 pin is used as
an input for the LSB (A-1) address function.
Requirements for Reading Array Data
To read array data from the outputs, the system must
drive the CE# and OE# pins to V
control and selects the device. OE# is the output control and gates arra y data to the output pins . WE# should
remain at V
. The BYTE# pin determines whether the

The internal state machine is set for reading array
data upon device po wer-u p , or after a hardw are res et.
This ensure s that no sp urious alteration of the memory content occurs dur ing the power transition. No
command is nece ssary in this mode to ob tain array
data. Standard microprocessor read cycles that assert valid addresses on the de vice addr ess inputs produce valid dat a on the de vice da ta outputs . The de vice

register contents are altered.

IL
For program operations, the BYT E# pin determin es
whether the device accepts program data in bytes or
words. Refer to “Word/Byte Configuration” for more information.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facili-
tate faster programming. Once the device enters the Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required to
program a word or byte, instead of four. The “Word/Byte
Program Command Sequence” section has details on
programming data to the device using both standard and
Unlock Bypass command sequences.
An erase operation can erase one sect or, multiple sectors, or the entire device. Tables 2 and 3 indic ate the
address space that each sector occupies. A “sector address” consists of the addres s bits required t o un iquely
select a sector. The “Command Definitions” section
has details on erasing a sector or the entire chip, or
suspending/resuming the erase operation.
After the system writes the autoselect command sequence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The
system can then read autoselect codes from the internal register (which is separate from the memory array)
on DQ7–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings apply in this
mode. Refer to the Autoselect Mode and Autoselect
Command Sequence sections for more information.

check the status of the operation by reading the status
bits on DQ7–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings and I
read specifications apply. Refer to “Write Operation

Status” for more information, and to “AC Characteristics” for timing diagrams.
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.

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 progr amming equipment
to automatically match a device to be progr ammed with

the autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system
through the command register.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect

up, the device does not accept commands on the
rising edge of WE#. The internal state machine is
automatically reset to reading array data on

COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific addre ss and data commands or sequences into the command register initiates device operations. Table 5 defines the valid regi ster command
sequences. Writing incorrectaddress and data val-ues or writing them in the improper sequence resets
the device to reading array data.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE# or
CE#, whichever happens later. All data is latched on
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever happens
first. Refer to the appropriate timing diagrams in the
“AC Characteristics” section.
Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to
retrieve data. The device is also ready to read array
data after comp leting an Embe dded Program or Embedded Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command, the device enters the Erase Suspend mode.
The system can read array data using the standard
read timings, except that if it reads at an address
within erase-su spended sectors, the device outputs
status data. After completing a programming o peration in the Erase Suspend mode, the system may
once again read array data with the same exception.
See “Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands” for
more information on this mode.

Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host
system to access the manufacturer and de vices c odes,
and determine whether or not a sector is protected.
T ab le 5 shows the address and data requirements . This
method is an alternative to that shown in Table 4, which
is intended for PROM programmers and requires V
on address bit A9.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock cycles, followed by the autoselect command. The device then enters the autoselect m ode,
and the system may read at any address any number
of times, without initiating another command sequence.
A read cycle at address XX00h retrieves the manufacturer code. A read cycle at address XX01h in word
mode (or 02h in byte mode) returns the device code . A
read cycle containing a sector address (SA) and the
address 02h in word mode (or 0 4h in byte mode) r eturns 01h if that sector is protected, or 00h if it is unprotected. Refer to Tables 2 and 3 for valid sector
addresses.

ings. The device automatically generates the program
pulses and verifies the programmed cell margin. Table
5 shows the address and da ta requirements for the
byte program command sequence.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete,
the device then returns to reading array data and addresses are no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the program operation b y using DQ7,
DQ6, or RY/BY#. See “Write Operation Status” for information on these status bits.
Any commands written to the device during the Embedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a
hardware reset immediately terminates the programming operation. The Byte Program command sequence should be reinitiated once the de vice has reset
to reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
Programming is allowed in any sequence an d across
sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed
from a “0” back to a “1”. Attempting to do so may halt
the operation and set DQ5 to “1”, or cause the Data#
Polling algorithm to indic ate the operation was successful. However, a succeeding read will show that the
data is still “0”. Only erase operations can convert a “0”
to a “1”.
Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program bytes or w ords t o the device faster than us ing the
standard program command sequence. The unloc k b ypass command sequence is initiated by first writing two
unlock cycles. This is followed by a third write cycle
containing the unlock bypass command, 20h. The device then enters the unlock bypass mode. A two-cycle
unlock bypass program command sequence is all that
is required to program in this mode. The first cycle in
this sequence contains the unlock bypass program
command, A0h; the second cycle contains the prog ram
address and data. Additional data is programmed in
the same manner. This mode dispenses with t he i nitial
two unlock cycles required in the standard program
command sequence, resulting in faster total programming time. Table 5 shows the re quirements for the command sequence.
The system must write the reset command to exit the
autoselect mode and return to reading array data.
Word/Byte Program Command Sequence
The system may program the device by word or byte,
depending on the state of the BYTE# pin. Programming is a four-bus-cycle operation. The program command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock write
cycles, followed by the program set-up command. The
program address and data are written next, which in
turn initiate the Embedded Program algorithm. The
not
system is
14Am29LL800B
required to provide further controls or tim-
During the unlo ck 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 data
90h; the second cycle the data 00h. The de vice then returns to reading array data.

an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. The
system is not required to provide a ny controls or timings during these operations.
After the command sequence is written, a sector erase
time-out of 50 µs begins. During the time-out period,
additional sector addresses and sector erase commands may be written. Loading the sector erase buffer
may be done in any sequence, and the number of sectors may be from one sector to all sector s. The time between these additional cycl es must be less than 50 µs,
otherwise the last address and command might not be
accepted, and erasure may begin. It is recommended
that processor interrupts be disab led during this time to
ensure all commands are accepted. The interrupts can
be re-enabled after the last Sector Erase command is
written. If the time between additional sector erase
commands can be assumed to be less than 50 µs, the
system need not monitor DQ3. Any command other
than Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the
time-out period resets the device to reading array
data. The system must rewrite the command sequence
and any additional sector addresses and commands.
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the s ector
erase timer has timed out. (See the “DQ3 : Sector Erase
Timer” section.) The tim e-out begins from the rising
edge of the final WE# pulse in the command sequence.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, on ly the
Erase Suspend command is valid. All other commands
are ignored. Note that a hardware reset during the
sector erase operation immediately terminates the operation. The Sector Erase command sequence should
be reinitiated once the device has returned to reading
array data, to ensure data integrity.

When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the
device returns to reading arra y data and addresses are
no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the erase operation b y usi ng DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or
RY/BY#. (Refer to “Write Op eration St atus” f or inf ormation on these status bits.)
Figure 5 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to the Erase/Program Operations tables in
the “AC Characteristics” section for parameters, and to
Figure 19 for timing diagrams.
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands
The Erase Suspend command allows the s yst em to interrupt a sector erase operation and then read data
from, or program data to, any sector not selected for
erasure. This command is valid only during the sector
erase operation, including the 50 µs time-out period
during the sector erase command sequence. The
Erase Suspend comm and is ignored if written dur ing
the chip erase operation or Embedded Program algorithm. Writing the Erase Suspend command during the
Sector Erase time-out immediately terminates the
time-out period and suspends the er ase oper at ion. Addresses are “don’t-cares” when writing the Erase Suspend command.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during a
sector erase operation, the de vice 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.

valid operation. See “Autoselect Command Sequence”
for more information.
The system must write the Erase Resume command
(address bits are “don’t care”) to exit the erase suspend
mode and continue the sector erase operati on. Further
writes of the Resume command are ignored. Another
Erase Suspend command can be written after the device has resumed erasing.

After the erase operation has been suspended, the
system can read array data from or program data to
any sector not selected for erasure . (The devi ce “erase
suspends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Normal
read and write timings and command definitions apply.
Reading at any address within erase-suspended sectors produces status data on DQ7–DQ0. The system
can use DQ7, or DQ6 and DQ2 together, to determine
if a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended.
See “Write Operation Status” for information on these
status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete, the system can once again read arra y data within
non-suspended sectors. The system can determine
the status of the program operation using the DQ7 or
DQ6 status bits, just as in the standard program operation. See “Write Operation Status” for more information.
The system may also write the autoselect command
sequence when the device is in the Erase Suspend
mode. The device allows reading autoselect codes
even at addresses within erasing sectors, since the
codes are not stored in the memory array. When the
device exits the autoselect mode, the device reverts to

WRITE OPERATION STATUS
The device provides several bits to determine the status of a write operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, DQ7,
and RY/BY#. Table 6 and the f ollo wing subsections describe the functions of these bits. DQ7, RY/BY#, and
DQ6 each offer a method for determining whether a
program or erase operation is complete or in progress.
These three bits are discussed first.
DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system
whether an Embedded Algorithm is in progress or completed, or whether the device is in Erase Suspend.
Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final
WE# pulse in the program or erase command sequence.
START
Read DQ7–DQ0
Addr = VA
DQ7 = Data?
Yes
During the Em bedded Program algor ithm, the device
outputs on DQ7 the complement of the datum programmed to DQ7. This DQ7 status also applies to programming during Erase Suspend. When the
Embedded Program algorithm is 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 the device returns to reading
array data.
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling
produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, or if the device enters the Erase
Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a “1” on DQ7.
This is analogous to the complement/true datum output
described for the Embedded Program algorithm: the
erase function changes all the bits in a sector to “1”;
prior to this, the device outputs the “complement,” o r
“0.” 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 s ectors selected for erasing are protected, Data# Polling
on DQ7 is active f or appro ximately 100
µs, then the de-
vice returns to reading array data. If not all selected
sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm
erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the selected sectors that are protected.
When the system detects DQ7 has changed from the
complement to true data, it can read va lid data at DQ7–
DQ0 on the
following
read cycles. This is because DQ7
may change asynchronously with DQ0–DQ6 while
Output Enable (OE#) is as serted low. Figure 20, Data#
Polling Timings (During Embedded Algorithms), in the
“AC Characteristics” section illustrates this.

No
Notes:
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector
erase operation, a valid address is an address within any
sector selected for erasure. During chip erase, a valid
address is any non-protected sector address.
2. 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 that
indicates whether an Embedded Algorithm is in
progress or complete. The RY/BY# status is valid after
the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command
sequence. Since RY/BY# is an open-drain output, several RY/BY# pins can be tied together in parallel with a
pull-up resistor to V
If the output is low (Busy ), the de vice is activ ely er asing
or programming. (T his includes programming in the
Erase Suspend mode.) If th e output is high (Ready) ,
the device is ready to read array data (including during
the Erase Suspend mode), or is in the standby mode.
Table 6 shows the outputs for RY/BY#. Figures 15, 18
and 19 shows RY/BY# for reset, program, and erase
operations, respectively.

.
DQ6: Toggle Bit I
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indic ates whether an Embedde d
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 eras e 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 ma y use either OE# or CE#
to control the read cycles. When the operation is complete, DQ6 stops toggling.
Table 6 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on DQ6. Figure 7 shows the toggle bit algorithm. Figure 21 in the
“AC Characteristics” section shows the toggle bit ti ming
diagrams. Figure 22 shows the differences between
DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the subsection on DQ2: Toggle Bit II.
DQ2: Toggle Bit II
The “Toggle Bit II” on DQ2, when used with DQ6, indicates whether a par ticular sect or is actively erasing
(that is, the Embedded Erase algo rithm is in pro gress),
or whether that sector is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit
II is valid after the rising edge of t he final WE# pulse in
the command sequence.
DQ2 toggles w hen the system reads at addresses
within those sector s 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 6 to compare outputs
for DQ2 and DQ6.
Figure 7 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchar t
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.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all s ectors selected for eras ing are protected , DQ6 toggles for
approximately 100
data. If not all selected sectors are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the selected sectors that are
protected.
The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to determine whether a sector is actively erasing or is erasesuspended. When the device is activ ely 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 pro tected sector,
DQ6 toggles for approximately 1
command sequence is written, then returns to reading
array data.
DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program
mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Program algorithm is complete.
µs, then returns to reading array
µs after the program
Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 7 for the following discussion. Whenever
the system initially begins rea ding toggle bit status, it
must read DQ7–DQ0 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 DQ7–DQ0 on the following read cycle.
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system
determines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the system also should note whether the value of 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 readi ng
array data.
Am29LL800B19
Page 20
ADVANCE INFORMATION
The remaining scenario is that the system initially determines that the toggle bit is toggling and DQ5 has not
gone high. The system may continue to monitor the
toggle bit and DQ5 through success ive read cycle s, determining the status as described in the previous paragraph. Alterna tively, it may choose to pe rform 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 7).

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.” This is a failure
condition that indicates the pro gram or er ase cycle w as
not successfully completed.
The DQ5 failure condition may appear if the system
tries to program a “1” to a location that is previously programmed to “0.” Only an erase operation can change
a “0” back to a “1.” Under this condition, the device
halts the operation, and when the operation has ex-
ceeded the timing limits, DQ5 produces a “1.”
Under both these conditions, t he system must issue the
reset command to return the device to reading array
data.
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the
system may read DQ3 to determine w hether or not an
erase operation has begun. (The sector erase timer
does not apply to the chip erase command.) If additional
sectors are selected for erasure, the entire time-out also
applies after each additional sector erase command.
When the time-out is complete, DQ3 switches from “0” to
“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.
After the sector erase command sequenc e is written,
the system should read the status on DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit I) to ensure the device has accepted the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If
DQ3 is “1”, the internally controlled erase cycle has begun; all further commands (other than Erase Sus pend)
are ignored until the erase operation is complete. If
DQ3 is “0”, the device will accept additional sector
erase commands. To ens ure the command has been
accepted, the system software should che ck the s tatus
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. Table 6 shows the outputs for DQ3.
Notes:
1. Read toggle bit twice to determine whether or not it is
toggling. See text.
2. Recheck toggle bit because it may stop toggling as DQ5
changes to “1” . See text.
