7.Device Operations
This section describes the read, program, erase, handshaking, and reset features of the Flash devices.
Operations are initiated by writing specific commands or a sequence with specific address and data patterns into the command
registers (see Table through Table ). The command register itself does not occupy any addressable memory location; rather, it is
composed of latches that store the commands, along with the address and data information needed to execute the command. The
contents of the register serve as input to the internal state machine and the state machine outputs dictate the function of the device.
Writing incorrect address and data values or writing them in an improper sequence may place the device in an unknown state, in
which case the system must pull the RESET# pin low or power cycle the device to return the device to the reading array data mode.
7.1Device Operation Table
The device must be setup appropriately for each operation. Table describes the required state of each control pin for any particular
operation.

7.2Word/Byte Configuration
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device data I/O pins operate in the byte or word configuration. If the BYTE# pin is set at logic
‘1’, the device is in word configuration, DQ0-DQ15 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.
7.3Versatile IOTM (VIO) Control
The VersatileIOTM (VIO) control allows the host system to set the voltage levels that the device generates and tolerates on all inputs
and outputs (address, control, and DQ signals). VIO range is 1.65 to V
device.
For example, a V

7.4Read
All memories require access time to output array data. In a read operation, data is read from one memory location at a time.
Addresses are presented to the device in random order, and the propagation delay through the device causes the data on its outputs
to arrive with the address on its inputs.
The device defaults to reading array data after device power-up or hardware reset. To read data from the memory array, the system
must first assert a valid address on Amax-A0, while driving OE# and CE# to V
on the falling edge of CE#. Data will appear on DQ15-DQ0 after address access time (t
addresses to valid output data. The OE# signal must be driven to VIL. Data is output on DQ15-DQ0 pins after the access time (tOE)

7.5Page Read Mode
The device is capable of fast page mode read and is compatible with the page mode Mask ROM read operation. This mode provides
faster read access speed for random locations within a page. The page size of the device is 8 words/16 bytes. The appropriate page
is selected by the higher address bits A(max)-A3. Address bits A2-A0 in word mode (A2 to A-1 in byte mode) determine the specific
word within a page. The microprocessor supplies the specific word location.

7.6Autoselect
The Autoselect mode provides manufacturer ID, Device identification, and sector protection information, through identifier codes
output from the internal register (separate from the memory array) on DQ7-DQ0. This mode is primarily intended for programming
equipment to automatically match a device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algorithm (see Table ). The
Autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system.
There are two methods to access autoselect codes. One uses the autoselect command, the other applies V
When using programming equipment, the autoselect mode requires VID (11.5 V to 12.5 V) on address pin A9. Address pins must be
as shown in Table .
To access Autoselect mode without using high voltage on A9, the host system must issue the Autoselect command.
The Autoselect command sequence may be written to an address within a sector that is either in the read or erase-suspend-read
mode.
The Autoselect command may not be written while the device is actively programming or erasing.
The system must write the reset command to return to the read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if the sector was previously
in Erase Suspend).
It is recommended that A9 apply V
to VIH/VIL before power-down the VCC/VIO.
See Table on page 65 for command sequence details.
When verifying sector protection, the sector address must appear on the appropriate highest order address bits (see Table to
Table ). The remaining address bits are don't care. When all necessary bits have been set as required, the programming equipment
may then read the corresponding identifier code on DQ15-DQ0. The Autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system through the
command register.
after power-up sequence is completed. In addition, it is recommended that A9 apply from VID
The following is a C source code example of using the autoselect function to read the manufacturer ID. Refer to the Cypress Low
Level Driver User’s Guide (available on www.cypress.com) for general information on Cypress Flash memory software development
guidelines.
/* Here is an example of Autoselect mode (getting manufacturer ID) */
/* Define UINT16 example: typedef unsigned short UINT16; */
These devices are capable of several modes of programming and or erase operations which are described in detail in the following
sections.
During a write operation, the system must drive CE# and WE# to VIL and OE# to VIH when providing address, command, and data.
Addresses are latched on the last falling edge of WE# or CE#, while data is latched on the 1st rising edge of WE# or CE#.
The Unlock Bypass feature allows the host system to send program commands to the Flash device without first writing unlock cycles
within the command sequence. See Section 7.7.8 for details on the Unlock Bypass function.
Note the following:
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the device returns to the read mode.
The system can determine the status of the program operation by reading the DQ status bits. Refer to the Write Operation Status
on page 32 for information on these status bits.
An “0” cannot be programmed back to a “1.” A succeeding read shows that the data is still “0.”
Only erase operations can convert a “0” to a “1.”
Any commands written to the device during the Embedded Program/Erase are ignored except the Suspend commands.
Secured Silicon Sector, Autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a program operation is in progress.
A hardware reset and/or power removal immediately terminates the Program/Erase operation and the Program/Erase command
sequence should be reinitiated once the device has returned to the read mode to ensure data integrity.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across sector boundaries for single word programming operation. See Write Buffer
Programming on page 23 when using the write buffer.
Programming to the same word address multiple times without intervening erases is permitted.
7.7.1Single Word Programming
Single word programming mode is one method of programming the Flash. In this mode, four Flash command write cycles are used
to program an individual Flash address. The data for this programming operation could be 8 or 16-bits wide.
While the single word programming method is supported by most Cypress devices, in general Single Word Programming is not
recommended for devices that support Write Buffer Programming. See Table on page 65 for the required bus cycles and Figure 7.1
for the flowchart.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the device then returns to the read mode and addresses are no longer latched.
The system can determine the status of the program operation by reading the DQ status bits. Refer to Write Operation Status
on page 32 for information on these status bits.
During programming, any command (except the Suspend Program command) is ignored.
The Secured Silicon Sector, Autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a program operation is in progress.
A hardware reset immediately terminates the program operation. The program command sequence should be reinitiated once the
device has returned to the read mode, to ensure data integrity.
Programming to the same address multiple times continuously (for example, “walking” a bit within a word) is permitted.

7.7.2Write Buffer Programming
Write Buffer Programming allows the system to write a maximum of 32 words in one programming operation. This results in a faster
effective word programming time than the standard “word” programming algorithms. The Write Buffer Programming command
sequence is initiated by first writing two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third write cycle containing the Write Buffer Load
command written at the Sector Address in which programming occurs. At this point, the system writes the number of “word locations
minus 1” that are loaded into the page buffer at the Sector Address in which programming occurs. This tells the device how many
write buffer addresses are loaded with data and therefore when to expect the “Program Buffer to Flash” confirm command. The
number of locations to program cannot exceed the size of the write buffer or the operation aborts. (Number loaded = the number of
locations to program minus 1. For example, if the system programs 6 address locations, then 05h should be written to the device.)
The system then writes the starting address/data combination. This starting address is the first address/data pair to be programmed,
and selects the “write-buffer-page” address. All subsequent address/data pairs must fall within the elected write-buffer-page.
The “write-buffer-page” is selected by using the addresses A
The “write-buffer-page” addresses must be the same for all address/data pairs loaded into the write buffer. (This means Write Buffer
Programming cannot be performed across multiple “write-buffer-pages.” This also means that Write Buffer Programming cannot be
performed across multiple sectors. If the system attempts to load programming data outside of the selected “write-buffer-page”, the
operation ABORTs.)
After writing the Starting Address/Data pair, the system then writes the remaining address/data pairs into the write buffer.
Note that if a Write Buffer address location is loaded multiple times, the “address/data pair” counter is decremented for every data
load operation. Also, the last data loaded at a location before the “Program Buffer to Flash” confirm command is the data
programmed into the device. It is the software's responsibility to comprehend ramifications of loading a write-buffer location more
than once. The counter decrements for each data load operation, NOT for each unique write-buffer-address location. Once the
specified number of write buffer locations have been loaded, the system must then write the “Program Buffer to Flash” command at
the Sector Address. Any other address/data write combinations abort the Write Buffer Programming operation. The Write Operation
Status bits should be used while monitoring the last address location loaded into the write buffer. This eliminates the need to store
an address in memory because the system can load the last address location, issue the program confirm command at the last
loaded address location, and then check the write operation status at that same address. DQ7, DQ6, DQ5, DQ2, and DQ1 should be
monitored to determine the device status during Write Buffer Programming.
The write-buffer “embedded” programming operation can be suspended using the standard suspend/resume commands. Upon
successful completion of the Write Buffer Programming operation, the device returns to READ mode.
The Write Buffer Programming Sequence is ABORTED under any of the following conditions:
Load a value that is greater than the page buffer size during the “Number of Locations to Program” step.
Write to an address in a sector different than the one specified during the Write-Buffer-Load command.
Write an Address/Data pair to a different write-buffer-page than the one selected by the “Starting Address” during the “write buffer
data loading” stage of the operation.
Writing anything other than the Program to Buffer Flash Command after the specified number of “data load” cycles.
The ABORT condition is indicated by DQ1 = 1, DQ7 = DATA# (for the “last address location loaded”), DQ6 = TOGGLE, DQ5 = 0.
This indicates that the Write Buffer Programming Operation was ABORTED. A “Write-to-Buffer-Abort reset” command sequence is
required when using the write buffer Programming features in Unlock Bypass mode. Note that the Secured Silicon sector,
autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a program operation is in progress.

Write buffer programming is allowed in any sequence of memory (or address) locations. These flash devices are capable of handling
multiple write buffer programming operations on the same write buffer address range without intervening erases.

7.7.3Sector Erase
The sector erase function erases one or more sectors in the memory array. (See Table on page 65 and Figure 7.3.) The device
does not require the system to preprogram a sector prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm automatically programs and
verifies the entire memory to an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. After a successful sector erase, all locations within the
erased sector contain FFFFh. The system is not required to provide any controls or timings during these operations.
After the command sequence is written, the sector erase time-out t
addresses may be written. Loading the sector erase buffer may be done in any sequence, and the number of sectors may be from
one sector to all sectors. The time between these additional cycles must be less than 50 µs. Any sector erase address and
command following the exceeded time-out (50 µs) may or may not be accepted. Any command other than Sector Erase or Erase
Suspend during the time-out period resets that sector to the read mode. The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sector
erase timer has timed out (See Section 7.8.6.) The time-out begins from the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command
sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the sector returns to reading array data and addresses are no longer latched.
The system can determine the status of the erase operation by reading DQ7 or DQ6/DQ2 in the erasing sector. Refer to Section 7.8
for information on these status bits.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the Erase Suspend command is valid. All other commands are ignored. However,
note that a hardware reset immediately terminates the erase operation. If that occurs, the sector erase command sequence should
be reinitiated once that sector has returned to reading array data, to ensure the sector is properly erased.
The Unlock Bypass feature allows the host system to send program commands to the Flash device without first writing unlock cycles
within the command sequence. See Section 7.7.8 for details on the Unlock Bypass function.
Figure 7.3 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to Section 11.7.5 for parameters and timing diagrams.

7.7.4Chip Erase Command Sequence
Chip erase is a six-bus cycle operation as indicated by Table on page 65. These commands invoke the Embedded Erase algorithm,
which does not require the system to preprogram prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm automatically preprograms and
verifies the entire memory to an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. After a successful chip erase, all locations of the chip
contain FFFFh. The system is not required to provide any controls or timings during these operations. The Command Definitions
on page 64 shows the address and data requirements for the chip erase command sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, that sector returns to the read mode and addresses are no longer latched. The
system can determine the status of the erase operation by using DQ7 or DQ6/DQ2. Refer to “Write Operation Status” for information
on these status bits.
The Unlock Bypass feature allows the host system to send program commands to the Flash device without first writing unlock cycles
within the command sequence. See Section 7.7.8 for details on the Unlock Bypass function.
Any commands written during the chip erase operation are ignored. However, note that a hardware reset immediately terminates the
erase operation. If that occurs, the chip erase command sequence should be reinitiated once that sector has returned to reading
array data, to ensure the entire array is properly erased.
The Erase Suspend command allows the system to interrupt a sector erase operation and then read data from, or program data to,
any sector not selected for erasure. The sector addresses are “don't-cares” when writing this command. This command is valid only
during the sector erase operation, including the t
Suspend command is ignored if written during the chip erase operation.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during the sector erase operation, the device requires a maximum of 20
typical) 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.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the device enters the erase-suspend-read mode. The system can read data from or
program data to any sector not selected for erasure. (The device “erase suspends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Reading at any
address within erase-suspended sectors produces status information on DQ7-DQ0. The system can use DQ7, or DQ6, and DQ2
together, to determine if a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended. Refer to Table 7.35 for information on these status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete, the device returns to the erase-suspend-read mode. The system can
determine the status of the program operation using write operation status bits, just as in the standard program operation.
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also issue the Autoselect command sequence. Refer to Write Buffer Programming
on page 23 and the Autoselect on page 17 for details.
To resume the sector erase operation, the system must write the Erase Resume command. The address of the erase-suspended
sector is a “don't-care” when writing this command. Further writes of the Resume command are ignored. Another Erase Suspend
command can be written after the chip has resumed erasing.

7.7.6Program Suspend/Program Resume Commands
The Program Suspend command allows the system to interrupt an embedded programming operation or a “Write to Buffer”
programming operation so that data can read from any non-suspended sector. When the Program Suspend command is written
during a programming process, the device halts the programming operation within 15
status bits. Addresses are “don't-cares” when writing the Program Suspend command.
After the programming operation has been suspended, the system can read array data from any non-suspended sector. The
Program Suspend command may also be issued during a programming operation while an erase is suspended. In this case, data
may be read from any addresses not within a sector in Erase Suspend or Program Suspend. If a read is needed from the Secured
Silicon Sector area, then user must use the proper command sequences to enter and exit this region.
The system may also write the Autoselect Command Sequence when the device is in Program Suspend mode. The device allows
reading Autoselect codes in the suspended sectors, since the codes are not stored in the memory array. When the device exits the
Autoselect mode, the device reverts to Program Suspend mode, and is ready for another valid operation. See Autoselect
on page 17 for more information.
After the Program Resume command is written, the device reverts to programming. The system can determine the status of the
program operation using the write operation status bits, just as in the standard program operation. See Write Operation Status
on page 32 for more information.
The system must write the Program Resume command (address bits are “don't care”) to exit the Program Suspend mode and
continue the programming operation. Further writes of the Program Resume command are ignored. Another Program Suspend
command can be written after the device has resumed programming.

Accelerated single word programming and write buffer programming operations are enabled through the WP#/ACC pin. This method
is faster than the standard program command sequences.
Note
The accelerated program functions must not be used more than 10 times per sector.
If the system asserts VHH on this input, the device automatically enters the aforementioned Unlock Bypass mode and uses the
higher voltage on the input to reduce the time required for program operations. The system can then use the Write Buffer Load
command sequence provided by the Unlock Bypass mode. Note that if a “Write-to-Buffer-Abort Reset” is required while in Unlock
Bypass mode, the full 3-cycle RESET command sequence must be used to reset the device. Removing V
upon completion of the embedded program operation, returns the device to normal operation.

7.7.8Unlock Bypass
This device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facilitate shorter programming commands. Once the device enters the Unlock
Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required to program data, instead of the normal four cycles.
This mode dispenses with the initial two unlock cycles required in the standard program command sequence, resulting in faster total
programming time. The Command Definitions on page 64 shows the requirements for the unlock bypass command sequences.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Read, Program, Write Buffer Programming, Write-to-Buffer-Abort Reset, Unlock Bypass
Sector Erase, Unlock Bypass Chip Erase 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 address is “don't care” and the data 90h.
The second cycle need only contain the data 00h. The sector then returns to the read mode.
Software Functions and Sample Code
The following are C source code examples of using the unlock bypass entry, program, and exit functions. Refer to the Cypress Low
Level Driver User’s Guide (available soon on www.cypress.com) for general information on Cypress Flash memory software

The device provides several bits to determine the status of a program or erase operation. The following subsections describe the
function of DQ1, DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, and DQ7.
7.8.1DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system whether an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm is in progress or
completed, or whether the device is in Erase Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the
command sequence. Note that the Data# Polling is valid only for the last word being programmed in the write-buffer-page during
Write Buffer Programming. Reading Data# Polling status on any word other than the last word to be programmed in the write-bufferpage returns false status information.
During the Embedded Program algorithm, 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, then that sector returns to the read mode.
During the Embedded Erase Algorithm, Data# polling produces a “0” on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, or
if the device enters the Erase Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a “1” on DQ7. The system must provide an address within any
of the sectors selected for erasure to read valid status information on DQ7.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors selected for erasing are protected, Data# Polling on DQ7 is active for
approximately 100

an address within a protected sector, the status may not be valid.

appears on successive read cycles.

7.8.2DQ6: Toggle Bit I
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 indicates whether an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm is in progress or complete, or whether the device
has entered the Erase Suspend mode. Toggle Bit I may be read at any address, and is valid after the rising edge of the final WE#
pulse in the command sequence (prior to the program or erase operation), and during the sector erase time-out.
During an Embedded Program or Erase algorithm operation, successive read cycles to any address that is being programmed or
erased causes DQ6 to toggle. When the operation is complete, DQ6 stops toggling.
After an erase command sequence is written, if all sectors selected for erasing are protected, DQ6 toggles for approximately 100
then 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.
The system can use DQ6 and DQ2 together to determine whether a sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended. When the
device is actively erasing (that is, the Embedded Erase algorithm is in progress), DQ6 toggles. When the device enters the Erase
Suspend mode, DQ6 stops toggling. However, the system must also use DQ2 to determine which sectors are erasing or erase-
suspended. Alternatively, the system can use DQ7 (see DQ7: Data# Polling on page 32).
If a program address falls within a protected sector, DQ6 toggles for approximately 1
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.
See the following for additional information: Figure 7.4, Figure 11.13 on page 60, and Table .
Toggle Bit I on DQ6 requires either OE# or CE# to be de-asserted and reasserted to show the change in state.
s after the program command sequence is
s,
7.8.3DQ2: Toggle Bit II
The “Toggle Bit II” on DQ2, when used with DQ6, indicates whether a particular sector is actively erasing (that is, the Embedded
Erase algorithm is in progress), or whether that sector is erase-suspended. Toggle Bit II is valid after the rising edge of the final WE#
pulse in the command sequence. DQ2 toggles when the system reads at addresses within those sectors that have been selected for
erasure. 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 to compare outputs for DQ2 and DQ6. See
Figure 11.14 on page 60 for additional information.
7.8.4Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Whenever the system initially begins reading 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 erases 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 DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits on page 35). 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 erases operation. If it is still toggling, the device did not complete the operation successfully,
and the system must write the reset command to return to reading array data. 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 successive read cycles, determining the status as described in the previous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to
perform other system tasks. In this case, the system must start at the beginning of the algorithm when it returns to determine the
status of the operation. Refer to Figure 7.4 for more details.
Note
When verifying the status of a write operation (embedded program/erase) of a memory sector, DQ6 and DQ2 toggle between high
and low states in a series of consecutive and contiguous status read cycles. In order for this toggling behavior to be properly
observed, the consecutive status bit reads must not be interleaved with read accesses to other memory sectors. If it is not possible
to temporarily prevent reads to other memory sectors, then it is recommended to use the DQ7 status bit as the alternative method of
determining the active or inactive status of the write operation.

7.8.5DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has exceeded a specified internal pulse count limit. Under these conditions DQ5
produces a “1,” indicating that the program or erase cycle was not successfully completed. The device does not output a 1 on DQ5 if
the system tries to program a 1 to a location that was previously programmed to 0. Only an erase operation can change a 0 back to
a 1. Under this condition, the device ignores the bit that was incorrectly instructed to be programmed from a 0 to a 1, while any other
bits that were correctly requested to be changed from 1 to 0 are programmed. Attempting to program a 0 to a 1 is masked during the
programming operation. Under valid DQ5 conditions, the system must write the reset command to return to the read mode (or to the
erase-suspend-read mode if a sector was previously in the erase-suspend-program mode).
7.8.6DQ3: Sector Erase Timeout State Indicator
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not erasure has begun. (The
sector erase timer does not apply to the chip erase command.) If additional sectors are selected for erasure, the entire time-out also
applies after each additional sector erase command. When the time-out period is complete, DQ3 switches from a “0” to a “1.” If the
time between additional sector erase commands from the system can be assumed to be less than t
monitor DQ3. See Sector Erase on page 26 for more details.
After the sector erase command is written, the system should read the status of DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit I) to ensure
that the device has accepted the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is “1,” the Embedded Erase algorithm has begun;
all further commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,” the device accepts
additional sector erase commands. To ensure the command has been accepted, the system software should check the status of
DQ3 prior to and following each sub-sequent sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the last command
might not have been accepted. Table shows the status of DQ3 relative to the other status bits.

7.8.7DQ1: Write to Buffer Abort
DQ1 indicates whether a Write to Buffer operation was aborted. Under these conditions DQ1 produces a “1”. The system must issue
the “Write to Buffer Abort Reset” command sequence to return the device to reading array data. See Write Buffer Programming
on page 23 for more details.

erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sectors, or the entire device. Table – Table indicate the address space that each
sector occupies. The device address space is divided into uniform 64KW/128KB sectors. A sector address is the set of address bits

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
when data is ready to be read by simply monitoring the RY/BY# pin, which is a dedicated output.

7.9.3Software Reset
Software reset is part of the command set (see Table on page 65) that also returns the device to array read mode and must be used
for the following conditions:
1. to exit Autoselect mode
2. when DQ5 goes high during write status operation that indicates program or erase cycle was not successfully completed
3. exit sector lock/unlock operation.
4. to return to erase-suspend-read mode if the device was previously in Erase Suspend mode.
5. after any aborted operations

The following are additional points to consider when using the reset command:
This command resets the sectors to the read and address bits are ignored.
Reset commands are ignored during program and erase operations.
The reset command may be written between the cycles in a program command sequence before programming begins (prior to
the third cycle). This resets the sector to which the system was writing to the read mode.
If the program command sequence is written to a sector that is in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset command returns
that sector to the erase-suspend-read mode.
The reset command may be written during an Autoselect command sequence.
If a sector has entered the Autoselect mode while in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset command returns that sector to
the erase-suspend-read mode.
If DQ1 goes high during a Write Buffer Programming operation, the system must write the “Write to Buffer Abort Reset” command
sequence to RESET the device to reading array data. The standard RESET command does not work during this condition.
To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system must issue a two-cycle unlock bypass reset command sequence [see Command
Definitions on page 64 for details].

The Advanced Sector Protection/Unprotection feature disables or enables programming or erase operations in any or all sectors and
can be implemented through software and/or hardware methods, which are independent of each other. This section describes the
various methods of protecting data stored in the memory array. An overview of these methods in shown in Figure 8.1.
As shipped from the factory, all devices default to the persistent mode when power is applied, and all sectors are unprotected,
unless otherwise chosen through the DYB ordering option (see Ordering Information on page 4). The device programmer or host
system must then choose which sector protection method to use. Programming (setting to “0”) any one of the following two one-time
programmable, non-volatile bits locks the part permanently in that mode:

Password Protection Mode
Lock Bit
Notes
1. If the password mode is chosen, the password must be programmed before setting the corresponding lock register bit.
2. After the Lock Register Bits Command Set Entry command sequence is written, reads and writes for Sector 0 are
disabled, while reads from other sectors are allowed until exiting this mode.
3. If both lock bits are selected to be programmed (to zeros) at the same time, the operation aborts.
4. Once the Password Mode Lock Bit is programmed, the Persistent Mode Lock Bit is permanently disabled, and no
changes to the protection scheme are allowed. Similarly, if the Persistent Mode Lock Bit is programmed, the Password
Mode is permanently disabled.
After selecting a sector protection method, each sector can operate in any of the following three states:
1. Constantly locked. The selected sectors are protected and can not be reprogrammed unless PPB lock bit is cleared via a
password, hardware reset, or power cycle.
2. Dynamically locked. The selected sectors are protected and can be altered via software commands.
3. Unlocked. The sectors are unprotected and can be erased and/or programmed.
These states are controlled by the bit types described in Section 8.2–Section 8.5.

8.2Persistent Protection Bits
The Persistent Protection Bits are unique and nonvolatile for each sector and have the same endurances as the Flash memory.
Preprogramming and verification prior to erasure are handled by the device, and therefore do not require system monitoring.
Notes
1. Each PPB is individually programmed and all are erased in parallel.
2. While programming PPB for a sector, array data can be read from any other sector, except Sector 0 (used for Data#
Polling) and the sector in which sector PPB is being programmed.
3. Entry command disables reads and writes for the sector selected.
4. Reads within that sector return the PPB status for that sector.
5. All Reads must be performed using the read mode.
6. The specific sector address (A25-A16 GL01GP, A24-A16 GL512P, A23-A16 GL256P, A22-A16 GL128P) are written at the
same time as the program command.
7. If the PPB Lock Bit is set, the PPB Program or erase command does not execute and times-out without programming or
erasing the PPB.
8. There are no means for individually erasing a specific PPB and no specific sector address is required for this operation.

8.2.1Dynamic Protection Bits
Dynamic Protection Bits are volatile and unique for each sector and can be individually modified. DYBs only control the protection
scheme for unprotected sectors that have their PPBs cleared (erased to “1”). By issuing the DYB Set or Clear command sequences,
the DYBs are set (programmed to “0”) or cleared (erased to “1”), thus placing each sector in the protected or unprotected state
respectively. This feature allows software to easily protect sectors against inadvertent changes yet does not prevent the easy
removal of protection when changes are needed.
Notes
1. The DYBs can be set (programmed to “0”) or cleared (erased to “1”) as often as needed. When the parts are first shipped,
the PPBs are cleared (erased to “1”) and upon power up or reset, the DYBs can be set or cleared depending upon the
ordering option chosen.
2. If the option to clear the DYBs after power up is chosen, (erased to “1”), then the sectorsmay be modified depending upon
the PPB state of that sector (see Table ).
3. The sectors would be in the protected state If the option to set the DYBs after power up is chosen (programmed to “0”).
4. It is possible to have sectors that are persistently locked with sectors that are left in the dynamic state.
5. The DYB Set or Clear commands for the dynamic sectors signify protected or unprotectedstate of the sectors
respectively. However, if there is a need to change the status of the persistently locked sectors, a few more steps are
required. First, the PPB Lock Bit must be cleared by either putting the device through a power-cycle, or hardware reset.
The PPBs can then be changed to reflect the desired settings. Setting the PPB Lock Bit once again locks the PPBs, and
the device operates normally again.
6. To achieve the best protection, it is recommended to execute the PPB Lock Bit Set command early in the boot code and
protect the boot code by holding WP#/ACC = V
ACC = VHH as they do when ACC =VIH.
. Note that the PPB and DYB bits have the same function when WP#/
IL
8.3Persistent Protection Bit Lock Bit
The Persistent Protection Bit Lock Bit is a global volatile bit for all sectors. When set (programmed to “0”), it locks all PPBs and when
cleared (programmed to “1”), allows the PPBs to be changed. There is only one PPB Lock Bit per device.
Notes
1. No software command sequence unlocks this bit unless the device is in the password protection mode; only a hardware
reset or a power-up clears this bit.
2. The PPB Lock Bit must be set (programmed to “0”) only after all PPBs are configured to the desired settings.
8.4Password Protection Method
The Password Protection Method allows an even higher level of security than the Persistent Sector Protection Mode by requiring a
64-bit password for unlocking the device PPB Lock Bit. In addition to this password requirement, after power up and reset, the PPB
Lock Bit is set “0” to maintain the password mode of operation. Successful execution of the Password Unlock command by entering
the entire password clears the PPB Lock Bit, allowing for sector PPBs modifications.
Notes
1. There is no special addressing order required for programming the password. Once the Password is written and verified,
the Password Mode Locking Bit must be set in order to prevent access.
2. The Password Program Command is only capable of programming “0”s. Programming a “1” after a cell is programmed as
a “0” results in a time-out with the cell as a “0”.
3. The password is all “1”s when shipped from the factory.
4. All 64-bit password combinations are valid as a password.
5. There is no means to verify what the password is after it is set.
6. The Password Mode Lock Bit, once set, prevents reading the 64-bit password on the data bus and further password
programming.

7. The Password Mode Lock Bit is not erasable.
8. The lower two address bits (A1–A0) are valid during the Password Read, Password Program, and Password Unlock.
9. The exact password must be entered in order for the unlocking function to occur.
10. The Password Unlock command cannot be issued any faster than 1 µs at a time to prevent a hacker from running through
all the 64-bit combinations in an attempt to correctly match a password.
11. Approximately 1 µs is required for unlocking the device after the valid 64-bit password is given to the device.
12. Password verification is only allowed during the password programming operation.
13. All further commands to the password region are disabled and all operations are ignored.
14. If the password is lost after setting the Password Mode Lock Bit, there is no way to clear the PPB Lock Bit.
15. Entry command sequence must be issued prior to any of any operation and it disables reads and writes for Sector 0.
Reads and writes for other sectors excluding Sector 0 are allowed.
16. If the user attempts to program or erase a protected sector, the device ignores the command and returns to read mode.
17. A program or erase command to a protected sector enables status polling and returns to read mode without having
modified the contents of the protected sector.
18. The programming of the DYB, PPB, and PPB Lock for a given sector can be verified by writing individual status read
commands DYB Status, PPB Status, and PPB Lock Status to the device.

8.6Hardware Data Protection Methods
The device offers two main types of data protection at the sector level via hardware control:
When WP#/ACC is at VIL, the either the highest or lowest sector is locked (device specific).
There are additional methods by which intended or accidental erasure of any sectors can be prevented via hardware means. The
following subsections describes these methods:
8.6.1WP#/ACC Method
The Write Protect feature provides a hardware method of protecting one outermost sector. This function is provided by the WP#/
ACC pin and overrides the previously discussed Sector Protection/Unprotection method.
If the system asserts VIL on the WP#/ACC pin, the device disables program and erase functions in the highest or lowest sector
independently of whether the sector was protected or unprotected using the method described in Advanced Sector Protection/
Unprotection on page 38.
If the system asserts V
unprotected. That is, sector protection or unprotection for these sectors depends on whether they were last protected or
unprotected.
The WP#/ACC pin must be held stable during a command sequence execution. WP# has an internal pull-up; when unconnected,
WP# is set at V
IH
on the WP#/ACC pin, the device reverts to whether the boot sectors were last set to be protected or
IH
.
Note
If WP#/ACC is at VIL when the device is in the standby mode, the maximum input load current is increased. See Table 11.2
on page 50 for details.
8.6.2Low VCC Write Inhibit
When VCC is less than V
The command register and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled, and the device resets to reading array data. Subsequent
writes are ignored until VCC is greater than V
unintentional writes when VCC is greater than V
, the device does not accept any write cycles. This protects data during VCC power-up and power-down.

8.6.3Write Pulse “Glitch Protection”
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE# or WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
8.6.4Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# = RESET# = VIL and OE# = VIH during power up, the device does not accept commands on the rising edge of WE#.
The internal state machine is automatically reset to the read mode on power-up.
9.Power Conservation Modes
9.1Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the device, it can place the device in the standby mode. In this mode, current
consumption is greatly reduced, and the outputs are placed in the high impedance state, independent of the OE# input. The device
enters the CMOS standby mode when the CE# and RESET# inputs are both held at V
access time (tCE) for read access, before it is ready to read data. If the device is deselected during erasure or programming, the
device draws active current until the operation is completed. I

9.3Hardware RESET# Input Operation
The RESET# input provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data. When RESET# is driven low for at
least a period of tRP, the device immediately terminates any operation in progress, tristates all outputs, and ignores all read/write
commands for the duration of the RESET# pulse. The device also resets the internal state machine to reading array data. The
operation that was interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is ready to accept another command sequence to ensure data
integrity.
When RESET# is held at V
the standby current is greater.
RESET# may be tied to the system reset circuitry and thus, a system reset would also reset the Flash memory, enabling the system
to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.

10. Secured Silicon Sector Flash Memory Region
The Secured Silicon Sector provides an extra Flash memory region that enables permanent part identification through an Electronic
Serial Number (ESN). The Secured Silicon Sector is 128 words in length and all Secured Silicon reads outside of the 128-word
address range returns invalid data. The Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit, DQ7, (at Autoselect address 03h) is used to indicate
whether or not the Secured Silicon Sector is locked when shipped from the factory.
Please note the following general conditions:
On power-up, or following a hardware reset, the device reverts to sending commands to the normal address space.
Reads outside of sector SA0 return memory array data.
Sector SA0 is remapped from memory array to Secured Silicon Sector array.
Once the Secured Silicon Sector Entry Command is issued, the Secured Silicon Sector Exit command must be issued to exit
Secured Silicon Sector Mode.
The Secured Silicon Sector is not accessible when the device is executing an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase algorithm.
The ACC function and unlock bypass modes are not available when the Secured Silicon Sector is enabled.

10.1Factory Locked Secured Silicon Sector
The Factory Locked Secured Silicon Sector is always protected when shipped from the factory and has the Secured Silicon Sector
Indicator Bit (DQ7) permanently set to a “1”. This prevents cloning of a factory locked part and ensures the security of the ESN and
customer code once the product is shipped to the field.
These devices are available pre-programmed with one of the following:
A random, 8 Word secure ESN only within the Secured Silicon Sector (at addresses 000000H - 000007H)
Both a random, secure ESN and customer code through the Cypress programming service.
Customers may opt to have their code programmed through the Cypress programming services. Cypress programs the customer's
code, with or without the random ESN. The devices are then shipped from the Cypress factory with the Secured Silicon Sector
permanently locked. Contact your local representative for details on using Cypress programming services.

10.2Customer Lockable Secured Silicon Sector
The Customer Lockable Secured Silicon Sector is always shipped unprotected (DQ7 set to “0”), allowing customers to utilize that
sector in any manner they choose. If the security feature is not required, the Secured Silicon Sector can be treated as an additional
Flash memory space.
Please note the following:
Once the Secured Silicon Sector area is protected, the Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit is permanently set to “0.”
The Secured Silicon Sector can be read any number of times, but can be programmed and locked only once. The Secured
Silicon Sector lock must be used with caution as once locked, there is no procedure available for unlocking the Secured Silicon
Sector area and none of the bits in the Secured Silicon Sector memory space can be modified in any way.
The accelerated programming (ACC) and unlock bypass functions are not available when the Secured Silicon Sector is enabled.
Once the Secured Silicon Sector is locked and verified, the system must write the Exit Secured Silicon Sector Region command
sequence which return the device to the memory array at sector 0.
The system can access the Secured Silicon Sector region by issuing the three-cycle Enter Secured Silicon Sector command
sequence. The device continues to access the Secured Silicon Sector region until the system issues the four-cycle Exit Secured
Silicon Sector command sequence.
See Command Definitions on page 64 [Secured Silicon Sector Command Table, Appendix
Table on page 65 through Table on page 71 for address and data requirements for both command sequences.
The Secured Silicon Sector Entry Command allows the following commands to be executed
Read customer and factory Secured Silicon areas
Program the customer Secured Silicon Sector
After the system has written the Enter Secured Silicon Sector command sequence, it may read the Secured Silicon Sector by using
the addresses normally occupied by sector SA0 within the memory array. This mode of operation continues until the system issues
the Exit Secured Silicon Sector command sequence, or until power is removed from the device.
Software Functions and Sample Code
The following are C functions and source code examples of using the Secured Silicon Sector Entry, Program, and exit commands.

12.1Command Definitions
Writing specific address and data commands or sequences into the command register initiates device operations. Tables –define
the valid register command sequences. Writing incorrect address and data values or writing them in the improper sequence can place the device in an unknown state. A reset command is then required to return the device to reading array data.

X = Don’t care
RA = Address of the memory to be read.
RD = Data read from location RA during read operation.
PA = Address of the memory location to be programmed. Addresses latch on the falling edge of the WE# or CE# pulse, whichever happens
later.
PD = Data to be programmed at location PA. Data latches on the rising edge of the WE# or CE# pulse, whichever happens first.
SA = Address of the sector to be verified (in autoselect mode) or erased. Address bits A

WBL = Write Buffer Location. The address must be within the same write buffer page as PA.
WC = Word Count is the number of write buffer locations to load minus 1.
Notes
1. See Table on page 15 for description of bus operations.
2. All values are in hexadecimal.
3. All bus cycles are write cycles unless otherwise noted.
4. Data bits DQ15-DQ8 are don’t cares for unlock and command cycles.
5. Address bits A
MAX
:A16 are don’t cares for unlock and command cycles, unless SA or PA required. (A
MAX
is the Highest Address pin.).
6. No unlock or command cycles required when reading array data.
7. The Reset command is required to return to reading array data when device is in the autoselect mode, or if DQ5 goes high (while the
device is providing status data).
8. See Table on page 18 for device ID values and definitions.
9. The fourth, fifth, and sixth cycles of the autoselect command sequence are read cycles.
10.The data is 00h for an unprotected sector and 01h for a protected sector. See Autoselect on page 17 for more information. This is same as
PPB Status Read except that the protect and unprotect statuses are inverted here.
11.The data value for DQ7 is “1” for a serialized, protected Secured Silicon Sector region and “0” for an unserialized, unprotected region. See
Table on page 18 for data and definitions.
12.Command is valid when device is ready to read array data or when device is in autoselect mode.
13.Depending on the number of words written, the total number of cycles may be from 6 to 37.
14.Command sequence returns device to reading array after being placed in a Write-to-Buffer-Abort state. Full command sequence is
required if resetting out of abort while in Unlock Bypass mode.
15.The Unlock-Bypass command is required prior to the Unlock-Bypass-Program command.
16.The Unlock-Bypass-Reset command is required to return to reading array data when the device is in the unlock bypass mode.
17.The system can read and program/program suspend in non-erasing sectors, or enter the autoselect mode, when in the Erase Suspend
mode. The Erase Suspend command is valid only during a sector erase operation.
18.The Erase Resume/Program Resume command is valid only during the Erase Suspend/Program Suspend modes.
19.The Exit command returns the device to reading the array.
1. See Table on page 15 for description of bus operations.
2. All values are in hexadecimal.
3. All bus cycles are write cycles unless otherwise noted.
4. Data bits DQ15-DQ8 are don’t cares for unlock and command cycles.
5. Address bits A

6. All Lock Register bits are one-time programmable. Program state = “0” and the erase state = “1.” The Persistent Protection Mode Lock Bit
and the Password Protection Mode Lock Bit cannot be programmed at the same time or the Lock Register Bits Program operation aborts
and returns the device to read mode. Lock Register bits that are reserved for future use default to “1’s.” The Lock Register is shipped out
as “FFFF’s” before Lock Register Bit program execution.
7. The Exit command returns the device to reading the array.
8. If any Command Set Entry command was written, an Exit command must be issued to reset the device into read mode.
9. For PWDx, only one portion of the password can be programmed per each “A0” command.
10.Note that the password portion can be entered or read in any order as long as the entire 64-bit password is entered or read.
11.If ACC = V

WC = Word Count is the number of write buffer locations to load minus 1.
Notes
1. See Table on page 15 for description of bus operations.
2. All values are in hexadecimal.
3. All bus cycles are write cycles unless otherwise noted.
4. Data bits DQ15-DQ8 are don’t cares for unlock and command cycles.
5. Address bits A
MAX
:A16 are don’t cares for unlock and command cycles, unless SA or PA required. (A
MAX
is the Highest Address pin.).
6. No unlock or command cycles required when reading array data.
7. The Reset command is required to return to reading array data when device is in the autoselect mode, or if DQ5 goes high (while the
device is providing status data).
8. See Table on page 18 for device ID values and definitions.
9. The fourth, fifth, and sixth cycles of the autoselect command sequence are read cycles.
10.The data is 00h for an unprotected sector and 01h for a protected sector. See Autoselect on page 17 for more information. This is same as
PPB Status Read except that the protect and unprotect statuses are inverted here.
11.The data value for DQ7 is “1” for a serialized, protected Secured Silicon Sector region and “0” for an unserialized, unprotected region. See
Table on page 18 for data and definitions.
12.Command is valid when device is ready to read array data or when device is in autoselect mode.
13.Depending on the number of words written, the total number of cycles may be from 6 to 69.
14.Command sequence returns device to reading array after being placed in a Write-to-Buffer-Abort state. Full command sequence is
required if resetting out of abort while in Unlock Bypass mode.
15.The Unlock-Bypass command is required prior to the Unlock-Bypass-Program command.
16.The Unlock-Bypass-Reset command is required to return to reading array data when the device is in the unlock bypass mode.
17.The system can read and program/program suspend in non-erasing sectors, or enter the autoselect mode, when in the Erase Suspend
mode. The Erase Suspend command is valid only during a sector erase operation.
18.The Erase Resume/Program Resume command is valid only during the Erase Suspend/Program Suspend modes.
19.The Exit command returns the device to reading the array.

12.2Common Flash Memory Interface
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification outlines device and host system software interrogation handshake, which allows
specific vendor-specified software algorithms to be used for entire families of devices. Software support can then be deviceindependent, JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and back-ward-compatible for the specified flash device families. Flash vendors
can standardize their existing interfaces for long-term compatibility.
This device enters the CFI Query mode when the system writes the CFI Query command, 98h, to address 55h any time the device
is ready to read array data. The system can read CFI information at the addresses given in Tables –). All reads outside of the CFI
address range, returns non-valid data. Reads from other sectors are allowed, writes are not. To terminate reading CFI data, the
system must write the reset command.
The system can also write the CFI query command when the device is in the autoselect mode. The device enters the CFI query
mode, and the system can read CFI data at the addresses given in Tables –. The system must write the reset command to return the
device to reading array data.
The following is a C source code example of using the CFI Entry and Exit functions. Refer to the Cypress Low Level Driver User’s Guide (available on www.cypress.com) for general information on Cypress Flash memory software development guidelines.

Power-On and Warm Reset Timing
At power on, the flash requires additional time in the reset state to self configure than it does during a warm reset. Table and
Figure 13.1 and Figure 13.2 detail the power on and warm reset timing requirements for the GL-P, and GL-S flash.

Figure 13.2 Warm Reset Timing
Note:
The sum of t
The differences in power-on timing should not present a migration challenge for most applications where the flash interfaces directly
with a Host that requires oscillator and PLL lock prior to initiating the first boot read access to the flash. In applications which may
access the flash within 300 µs of power application, some circuit modification will be required to accommodate migration to GL-S
flash.
To initiate the first read or write cycle after power on, the GL-S requires CE# or OE# to transition from High to Low no sooner than
after VCC exceeds V
t
VCS
edge which initiates the first access.
CE# is ignored during Warm Reset; however, to initiate the first read or write cycle after warm reset, the GL-S requires CE# to
transition from High to Low no sooner than t
prior to CE# falling edge, which initiates first access. These were not requirements for the GL-P so designs that have CE# fixed low
cannot migrate to GL-S without modification to enable active CE# control.
The GL-S allows VIO to ramp concurrently with or after VCC with no restriction on time or voltage differential. During power ramp no
input is allowed to exceed VIO. The GL-S data sheet provides enhanced direction on power management and control to design a
robust and reliable system.
