GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am29LV002 is a 2 Mbit, 3.0 Volt-only Flash
memory organized as 262,144 bytes. The device is
offered in a 40-pin TSOP package. The byt e-wide (x8)
data appears on DQ7– DQ0. All read, program, an d
erase operations are accomplished using only a single
power supply. The device can also be programmed in
standard EPROM programmers.
The standard device offers access times of 90, 100,
120, and 150 ns, allowing high speed microprocessors
to operate without wait states. T o eliminate bus contention the d evice ha s separat e chip en able (CE #), writ e
enable (WE#) and output enable (OE#) controls .
The device requires only a single 3.0 volt power sup-ply for both rea d an d write functions. Inte rna l ly g en er ated and r egulated voltages a re provided for th e
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 microprocessor write timings. Register contents serve as input to an internal state-machine that
controls the er ase and programming ci rcuitry. Write
cycles also internally latch addresses and data needed
for the programming and erase operations. Reading
data ou t of the de vice is si milar to r eading fr om othe r
Flash or EPR O M dev ic es.
Device programming occurs by executing the program
command sequence. This initiates the EmbeddedProgram algorithm—an internal algorithm that automatical ly time s the program pulse widths and ver ifies
proper cell margin.
Device erasure occurs by executing the erase command se quence. T his init iates th e Embedded Erase
algorithm—an internal algorithm that automatically preprograms the array (if it is not already programmed) before executing the erase operation. During erase, the
device au tom atically time s th e e ra se pulse widths an d
verifies proper cell margin.
The host system can detect whether a program or
erase op eratio n is co mpl ete by o bse rving th e RY/B Y#
pin, or by reading the DQ7 (Data# Polling) and DQ6
(toggle) status bits. After a program or erase cycle
has been com p lete d, the device i s re ad y to rea d a rra y
data o r accept another command.
The sector erase architecture allow s memo ry s ector s
to be er ased and reprog rammed withou t affecting the
data contents of other sectors. The device is fully
erased when shipped from the factory.
Hardware data protection measures include a low
V
detector that au tomatically inhibits write opera-
CC
tions during power transitions. The hardware sector
protection feature disables both program and erase
operat ions in any combina tion of the s ectors of m emory. This is achieved via programming eq uipment.
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 achieved.
The hardware RESET# pin terminates a ny operatio n
in progress and resets the internal state machine to
reading array data. The RESET# pin may b e ti ed to t he
system reset circuitry. A system reset would thus als o
reset the device, enabling the system microprocessor
to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.
The device offers two power-saving features. When
addres ses have be en stable for a s p ec if ied a mo un t o f
time, the device enters the automatic sleep mode.
The system can also place the device into the standbymode. Power co nsumpt ion is greatly reduc ed in bot h
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 w ithin
a sector simultaneously via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is programmed using hot electron
injection.

Standby Mode
When th e sy st em is not read ing or wr itin g to the dev ice,
it can place the device in the standby mode. In this
mode, current consumption is greatly reduced, and the

Automatic Sleep Mode
The au tomatic sl eep mode m inimizes F lash devi ce

enables this mode when addresses remain stable for
t

ACC
independent of the CE#, WE#, and OE# control

data when addresses are changed. While in sleep

the system. I

RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data. When the system
drives the RESET# pin to V
for at le ast a per iod of tRP,
IL
the device immediately terminates any operation in
progress , tri states all da ta output p ins, and igno res all
read/write atte mpts for the durati on of the RESET#
pulse. The device also resets the internal state machine to reading array data. The oper ation that was interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is ready
to accept another command sequence, to ensure data
integrity.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET #
pulse. When RESET# is held at V

The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset cir-
cuitry. A system rese t would thus also res et th e Flas h
memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up
firmware from the Flash memory.
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase operation, the RY/BY# pin remains a “0” (busy) until the internal reset operation is complete, whi ch requires a
time of t
(durin g Embedde d Algorit hms). The
READY
system can thus monitor RY/BY# to determine whether
the reset operation is complete. If RESET# is asserted
when a program or erase operation is not executing

The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device identification, and sector protection verification,
through identifier codes output on DQ7–DQ0. This
mode is primarily intended for programming equipment
to auto mati ca lly match a de vice to b e pr ogra mmed with
its corresponding programming al gorithm. However,
the aut osel ect co des can also be a cces sed in -sy stem
through the command register.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect
mode requires V
(11.5 V to 12. 5 V) on addr ess pin
ID
A9. Addre ss pins A6, A1, and A0 must be as sho wn i n
Table 4. In addition, when verifying sector protection,
the sector ad dress must app ear on the appro priate
highest order address bits (see Tables 2 and 3). Table
4 shows the remaining address bits that are don’t care.
When all necessary bits have been set as required, the
programming equipment may then read the corresponding identifier code on DQ7–DQ0.
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host
system can issue the autoselect command via the
command register, as shown in Table 5. This method
does not require V
. See “Command Definitions” for

Hardware Data Protection
The command sequence requir ement of unlock cycle s
for programming or erasing provides data protection
against inadvertent writes (refer to Table 5 for command definitions). In addition, the following hardware
data protection measures prevent accidental erasure

COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific ad dress and data commands or sequences into the command register initiates device operations. Table 5 defines the valid register command
sequences. W riting incor rect ad dress and da ta 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 d evice power- up. N o comm ands ar e requ ired t o
retrieve data. The device is also ready to read array
data after completing an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,
the dev ice enters the Erase Susp end m ode . The sys tem can read ar ray data using th e standa rd read timings, except that if it reads at an address within erasesuspended sectors, the device outpu ts status data.
After completing a programming operation in the Erase
Suspend mode, the system may once again read array
data with the same exception. See “Erase Suspend/
Erase Resume Commands” for more information on
this mode.

Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE# or
WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
Logical Inhibit
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# =
V
, CE# = VIH or WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle ,
IL
CE# and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a
logical one.
Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# = V
and OE# = VIH during po wer up, the
IL
device does not accept commands on the rising edge
of WE#. The internal state machine is automatically
reset to reading array data on power-up.
See also “Requirements for Reading Array Data” in the
“Devic e B u s Op er at io ns ” section f or m ore in for ma t ion .
The Read Operations table provides the read parameters, and Figure 12 shows the timing diagram.
Reset Command
Writing the reset command to the device resets the device to r ea di n g a rr ay da ta. A dd re ss bits are do n’ t car e
for this command.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This reset s the device to reading array
data. Once erasure begins, however, the device ignores reset commands until the operation is compl ete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in a program command sequence before programmi ng begins. This resets the device to
reading a rray data (a lso applie s to programm ing in
Erase Su spend mode ). Once p rogrammin g begins,
however, the device ignores r eset co m mand s until th e
operat ion i s comp l et e.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an autoselect command sequence.
Once in the autoselect mode, the reset command
be written to re turn to re ading ar ray data (also applies
to autoselect during Erase Suspend).
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the res et comm and r eturn s th e devic e to re ading array data (also applies during Erase Suspend).
