1.0 Introduction
(Cont.)
Please refer to the revision block at the end of this document for updated information.
The PSD835G2 device offers two methods to program PSD Flash memory while the PSD is soldered to a circuit board.
In-System Programming (ISP) via JTAG
An IEEE 1149.1 compliant JTAG-ISP interface is included on the PSD enabling the entire device (both flash memories, the PLD, and all configuration) to be rapidly programmed while soldered to the circuit board. This requires no MCU participation, which means the PSD can be programmed anytime, even while completely blank.
The innovative JTAG interface to flash memories is an industry first, solving key problems faced by designers and manufacturing houses, such as:
First time programming – How do I get firmware into the flash the very first time?
JTAG is the answer, program the PSD while blank with no MCU involvement.
Inventory build-up of pre-programmed devices – How do I maintain an accurate
count of pre-programmed flash memory and PLD devices based on customer demand? How many and what version? JTAG is the answer, build your hardware with blank PSDs soldered directly to the board and then custom program just before they are shipped to customer. No more labels on chips and no more wasted inventory.
Expensive sockets – How do I eliminate the need for expensive and unreliable
sockets? JTAG is the answer. Solder the PSD directly to the circuit board. Program first time and subsequent times with JTAG. No need to handle devices and bend the fragile leads.
In-Application re-Programming (IAP)
Two independent flash memory arrays are included so the MCU can execute code from one memory while erasing and programming the other. Robust product firmware updates in the field are possible over any communication channel (CAN, Ethernet, UART, J1850, etc) using this unique architecture. Designers are relieved of these problems:
Simultaneous read and write to flash memory – How can the MCU program the
same memory from which it is executing code? It cannot. The PSD allows the MCU to operate the two flash memories concurrently, reading code from one while erasing and programming the other during IAP.
Complex memory mapping – How can I map these two memories efficiently?
A Programmable Decode PLD is embedded in the PSD. The concurrent PSD memories can be mapped anywhere in MCU address space, segment by segment with extremely high address resolution. As an option, the secondary flash memory can be swapped out of the system memory map when IAP is complete. A built-in page register breaks the MCU address limit.
Separate program and data space – How can I write to flash memory while it
resides in “program” space during field firmware updates, my 80C51 won’t allow it The flash PSD provides means to “reclassify” flash memory as “data” space during IAP, then back to “program” space when complete.
PSDsoft – ST’s software development tool – guides you through the design process step-by-step making it possible to complete an embedded MCU design capable of ISP/IAP in just hours. Select your MCU and PSDsoft will take you through the remainder of the design with point and click entry, covering...PSD selection, pin definitions, programmable logic inputs and outputs, MCU memory map definition, ANSI C code generation for your MCU, and merging your MCU firmware with the PSD design. When complete, two different device programmers are supported directly from PSDsoft – FlashLINK (JTAG) and PSDpro.
The PSD835G2 is available in an 80-pin TQFP package.

PSD835G2 PSD8XX Family
5
PSD8XX devices contain several major functional blocks. Figure 1 on page 3 shows the architecture of the PSD8XX device family. The functions of each block are described briefly in the following sections. Many of the blocks perform multiple functions and are user configurable.
4.1 Memory
The PSD835G2 contains the following memories:
4 Mbit Flash
A secondary 256 Kbit Flash memory for boot or data
64 Kbit SRAM.
Each of the memories is briefly discussed in the following paragraphs. A more detailed discussion can be found in section 9.
The 4 Mbit Flash is the main memory of the PSD835G2. It is divided into eight equally-sized sectors that are individually selectable.
The 256 Kbit secondary Flash memory is divided into four equally-sized sectors. Each sector is individually selectable.
The 64 Kbit SRAM is intended for use as a scratchpad memory or as an extension to the microcontroller SRAM. If an external battery is connected to the PSD8XX’s Vstby pin, data will be retained in the event of a power failure.
Each block of memory can be located in a different address space as defined by the user. The access times for all memory types includes the address latching and DPLD decoding time.
4.2 PLDs
The device contains two PLD blocks, each optimized for a different function, as shown in Table 2. The functional partitioning of the PLDs reduces power consumption, optimizes cost/performance, and eases design entry.
The Decode PLD (DPLD) is used to decode addresses and generate chip selects for the PSD835G2 internal memory and registers. The CPLD can implement user-defined logic functions. The DPLD has combinatorial outputs. The CPLD has 16 Output MicroCells and 8 combinatorial outputs. The PSD835G2 also has 24 Input MicroCells that can be configured as inputs to the PLDs. The PLDs receive their inputs from the PLD Input Bus and are differentiated by their output destinations, number of Product Terms, and MicroCells.
The PLDs consume minimal power by using Zero-Power design techniques. The speed and power consumption of the PLD is controlled by the Turbo Bit in the PMMR0 register and other bits in the PMMR2 registers. These registers are set by the microcontroller at runtime. There is a slight penalty to PLD propagation time when invoking the non-Turbo bit.
4.3 I/O Ports
The PSD835G2 has 52 I/O pins divided among seven ports (Port A, B, C, D, E, F and G). Each I/O pin can be individually configured for different functions. Ports can be configured as standard MCU I/O ports, PLD I/O, or latched address outputs for microcontrollers using multiplexed address/data busses.
The JTAG pins can be enabled on Port E for In-System Programming (ISP). Ports F and G can also be configured as a data port for a non-multiplexed bus.
4.4 Microcontroller Bus Interface
The PSD835G2 easily interfaces with most 8-bit microcontrollers that have either multiplexed or non-multiplexed address/data busses. The device is configured to respond to the microcontroller’s control signals, which are also used as inputs to the PLDs. Section
9.3.5 contains microcontroller interface examples.

4.5 ISP via JTAG Port
In-System Programming can be performed through the JTAG pins on Port E. This serial interface allows complete programming of the entire PSD835G2 device. A blank device can be completely programmed. The JTAG signals (TMS, TCK, TSTAT, TERR, TDI, TDO) can be multiplexed with other functions on Port E. Table 3 indicates the JTAG signals pin assignments.
4.6 In-System Programming (ISP)
Using the JTAG signals on Port E, the entire PSD835G2 (memory, logic, configuration) device can be programmed or erased without the use of the microcontroller.

4.7 In-Application re-Programming (IAP)
The main Flash memory can also be programmed in-system by the microcontroller executing the programming algorithms out of the secondary Flash memory, or SRAM. Since this is a sizable separate block, the application can also continue to operate. The secondary Flash boot memory can be programmed the same way by executing out of the main Flash memory. Table 4 indicates which programming methods can program different functional blocks of the PSD8XX.

Table 4. Methods of Programming Different Functional Blocks of the PSD835G2
4.8 Page Register
The eight-bit Page Register expands the address range of the microcontroller by up to 256 times.The paged address can be used as part of the address space to access external memory and peripherals or internal memory and I/O. The Page Register can also be used to change the address mapping of blocks of Flash memory into different memory spaces for IAP.
4.9 Power Management Unit
The Power Management Unit (PMU) in the PSD835G2 gives the user control of the power consumption on selected functional blocks based on system requirements. The PMU includes an Automatic Power Down unit (APD) that will turn off device functions due to microcontroller inactivity. The APD unit has a Power Down Mode that helps reduce power consumption.
The PSD835G2 also has some bits that are configured at run-time by the MCU to reduce power consumption of the CPLD. The turbo bit in the PMMR0 register can be turned off and the CPLD will latch its outputs and go to standby until the next transition on its inputs. Additionally, bits in the PMMR2 register can be set by the MCU to block signals from entering the CPLD to reduce power consumption. See section 9.5.

5.0 Development System
The PSD8XX series is supported by PSDsoft a Windows-based (95, 98, NT) software development tool. A PSD design is quickly and easily produced in a point and click environment. The designer does not need to enter Hardware Definition Language (HDL) equations (unless desired) to define PSD pin functions and memory map information. The general design flow is shown in Figure 2 below. PSDsoft is available from our web site (www.st.com/psm) or other distribution channels.
PSDsoft directly supports two low cost device programmers from ST. PSDpro and FlashLINK (JTAG). Both of these programmers may be purchased through your local rep/distributor, or directly from our web site using a credit card. The PSD8XX is also supported by third party device programmers, see web site for current list.

The following table describes the pin names and pin functions of the PSD835G2. Pins that have multiple names and/or functions are defined using PSDsoft.
6.0 Table 5. PSD835G2 Pin Descriptions
Pin*
(TQFP
Pin Name Pkg.) Type Description
ADIO0-7 3-7 I/O This is the lower Address/Data port. Connect your MCU
10-12 address or address/data bus according to the following rules:
1. If your MCU has a multiplexed address/data bus where the data is multiplexed with the lower address bits, connect AD[0:7] to this port.
2. If your MCU does not have a multiplexed address/data bus, connect A[0:7] to this port.
3. If you are using an 80C51XA in burst mode, connect A4/D0 through A11/D7 to this port.
ALE or AS latches the address. The PSD drives data out only if the read signal is active and one of the PSD functional blocks was selected. The addresses on this port are passed to the PLDs.
ADIO8-15 13-20 I/O This is the upper Address/Data port. Connect your MCU
address or address/data bus according to the following rules:
1. If your MCU has a multiplexed address/data bus where the data is multiplexed with the lower address bits, connect A[8:15 ] to this port.
2. If your MCU does not have a multiplexed address/data bus, connect A[8:15 ] to this port.
3. If you are using an 80C251 in page mode, connect AD[8:15] to this port
4. If you are using an 80C51XA in burst mode, connect A[12:19] to this port.
ALE or AS latches the address. The PSD drives data out only if the read signal is active and one of the PSD functional blocks was selected. The addresses on this port are passed to the PLDs.
CNTL0 59 I The following control signals can be connected to this port,
based on your MCU:
1. WR — active-low write input.
2. R_W — active-high read/active low write input.
This pin is connected to the PLDs. Therefore, these signals can be used in decode and other logic equations.
CNTL1 60 I The following control signals can be connected to this port,
based on your MCU:
1. RD — active-low read input.
2. E — E clock input.
3. DS — active-low data strobe input.
4. PSEN — connect PSEN to this port when it is being used as an active-low read signal. For example, when the 80C251 outputs more than 16 address bits, PSEN is actually the read signal.
This pin is connected to the PLDs. Therefore, these signals can be used in decode and other logic equations.
CNTL2 40 I This pin can be used to input the PSEN (Program Select
Enable) signal from any MCU that uses this signal for code exclusively. If your MCU does not output a Program Select Enable signal, this port can be used as a generic input. This port is connected to the PLD as input.
Reset 39 I Active low input. Resets I/O Ports, PLD MicroCells, some of
the configuration registers and JTAG registers. Must be active at power up. Reset also aborts the Flash programming/erase cycle that is in progress.

9.0 The PSD835G2 Functional Blocks
As shown in Figure 1, the PSD835G2 consists of six major types of functional blocks:
Memory BlocksPLD BlocksBus InterfaceI/O PortsPower Management UnitJTAG-ISP Interface
The functions of each block are described in the following sections. Many of the blocks perform multiple functions, and are user configurable.
9.1 Memory Blocks
The PSD835G2 has the following memory blocks:
The main Flash memory
Secondary Flash memory
SRAM.
The memory select signals for these blocks originate from the Decode PLD (DPLD) and are user-defined in PSDsoft.
Table 7 summarizes which versions of the PSD835G2 contain which memory blocks.
Main Flash Secondary Flash
Device Flash Size Sector Size Block Size Sector Size SRAM
PSD835G2 512KB 64KB 32KB 8KB 8KB
Table 7. Memory Blocks
9.1.1 Main Flash and Secondary Flash Memory Description
The main Flash memory block is divided evenly into eight sectors. The secondary Flash memory is divided into four sectors of eight Kbytes each. Each sector of either memory can be separately protected from program and erase operations.
Flash memory may be erased on a sector-by-sector basis and programmed word-by-word. Flash sector erasure may be suspended while data is read from other sectors of memory and then resumed after reading.
During a program or erase of Flash, the status can be output on the Rdy/Bsy pin of Port PE4. This pin is set up using PSDsoft.
9.1.1.1 Memory Block Selects
The decode PLD in the PSD835G2 generates the chip selects for all the internal memory blocks (refer to the PLD section). Each of the eight Flash memory sectors have a Flash Select signal (FS0 -FS7) which can contain up to three product terms. Each of the four Secondary Flash memory sectors have a Select signal (CSBOOT0-3) which can contain up to three product terms. Having three product terms for each sector select signal allows a given sector to be mapped in different areas of system memory. When using a microcontroller (80C51) with separate Program and Data space, these flexible select signals allow dynamic re-mapping of sectors from one space to the other before and after IAP.

9.1.1.2 Upper and Lower Block IN MAIN FLASH SECTOR
The PSD835G2’s main Flash has eight 64K bytes sector. The 64K byte sector size may cause some difficulty in code mapping for an 8-bit MCU with only 64K byte address space. To resolve this mapping issue, the PSD835G2 provides additional logic (Figure 3) for the user to split the 8 sectors such that each sector has a lower and upper 32K byte block, and the two blocks can reside in different pages but in the same address range.
If your design works with 64KB sectors, you don’t need to configure this logic. If the design requires 32KB blocks in each sector, you need to define a “FA15” PLD equation in PSDsoft as the A15 address input to the main Flash module. FA15 consists of 3 product terms and will control whether the MCU is accessing the lower or upper 32KB in the selected sector. Below is an example for Flash sector chip select FS0. A typical equation is FA15 = pgr4 of the Page Register. When pgr4 is 0 (page 00), the lower 32KB is selected. When pgr4 is switched to 1 by the user, the upper 32KB is selected. PSDsoft will automatically generate the PLD equations shown, based on your point and click selections.
page = [pgr7...pgr0]; “Page Register output
“Sector Chip Select Equation
FS0 = ((0000h <= address <= 7FFFh) & page = 00h) # “select first 32KB block
((0000h <= address <= 7FFFh) & page = 10h); “select second 32KB block
FA15 = pgr4; “as address A15 input to the main Flash
If no FA15 equation is defined in PSDsoft, the A15 that comes from the MCU address bus will be routed as input to the main Flash instead of FA15. The FA15 equation has no impact in the Sector Erase operation. Note: FA15 affects all eight sectors of the main Flash simultaneously, you cannot direct FA15 to a particular Flash sector only.
9.1.1.3 The Ready/Busy Pin (PE4)
Pin PE4 can be used to output the Ready/Busy status of the PSD835G2. The output on the pin will be a ‘0’ (Busy) when Flash memory blocks are being written to, or when the Flash memory block is being erased. The output will be a ‘1’ (Ready) when no write or erase operation is in progress.

9.1.1.4 Memory Operation
The main Flash and secondary Flash memories are addressed through the microcontroller interface on the PSD835G2 device. The microcontroller can access these memories in one of two ways:
The microcontroller can execute a typical bus write or read operation just as it would
if accessing a RAM or ROM device using standard bus cycles.
The microcontroller can execute a specific instruction that consists of several write
and read operations. This involves writing specific data patterns to special addresses within the Flash to invoke an embedded algorithm. These instructions are summarized in Table 8.
Typically, Flash memory can be read by the microcontroller using read operations, just as it would read a ROM device. However, Flash memory can only be erased and programmed with specific instructions. For example, the microcontroller cannot write a single byte directly to Flash memory as one would write a byte to RAM. To program a byte into Flash memory, the microcontroller must execute a program instruction sequence, then test the status of the programming event. This status test is achieved by a read operation or polling the Rdy/Busy pin (PE4).
The Flash memory can also be read by using special instructions to retrieve particular Flash device information (sector protect status and ID).
9.1.1.4.1 Instructions
An instruction is defined as a sequence of specific operations. Each received byte is sequentially decoded by the PSD and not executed as a standard write operation. The instruction is executed when the correct number of bytes are properly received and the time between two consecutive bytes is shorter than the time-out value. Some instructions are structured to include read operations after the initial write operations.
The sequencing of any instruction must be followed exactly. Any invalid combination of instruction bytes or time-out between two consecutive bytes while addressing Flash memory will reset the device logic into a read array mode (Flash memory reads like a ROM device).
The PSD835G2 main Flash and secondary Flash support these instructions (see Table 8):
Erase memory by chip or sector Suspend or resume sector erase Program a byte Reset to read array mode Read Main Flash Identifier value Read sector protection status Bypass Instruction
These instructions are detailed in Table 8. For efficient decoding of the instructions, the first two bytes of an instruction are the coded cycles and are followed by a command byte or confirmation byte. The coded cycles consist of writing the data AAh to address X555h during the first cycle and data 55h to address XAAAh during the second cycle (unless the Bypass Instruction feature is used. See 9.1.1.7). Address lines A15-A12 are dont care during the instruction write cycles. However, the appropriate sector select signal (FSi or CSBOOTi) must be selected.
The main Flash and the secondary Flash Block have the same set of instructions (except Read main Flash ID). The chip selects of the Flash memory will determine which Flash will receive and execute the instruction. The main Flash is selected if any one of the FS0-7 is active, and the secondary Flash Block is selected if any one of the CSBOOT0-3 is active.

9.1.1.5 Power-Up Condition
The PSD835G2 internal logic is reset upon power-up to the read array mode. The FSi and CSBOOTi select signals, along with the write strobe signal, must be in the false state during power-up for maximum security of the data contents and to remove the possibility of data being written on the first edge of a write strobe signal. Any write cycle initiation is locked when VCCis below VLKO.
9.1.1.6 Read
Under typical conditions, the microcontroller may read the Flash, or secondary Flash memories using read operations just as it would a ROM or RAM device. Alternately, the microcontoller may use read operations to obtain status information about a program or erase operation in progress. Lastly, the microcontroller may use instructions to read special data from these memories. The following sections describe these read functions.
9.1.1.6.1 Read the Contents of Memory
Main Flash and secodary Flash memories are placed in the read array mode after power-up, chip reset, or a Reset Flash instruction (see Table 8). The microcontroller can read the memory contents of main Flash or secondary Flash by using read operations any time the read operation is not part of an instruction sequence.
9.1.1.6.2 Read the Main Flash Memory Identifier
The main Flash memory identifier is read with an instruction composed of 4 operations: 3 specific write operations and a read operation (see Table 8). The PSD835G2 main Flash memory ID is E8h.
9.1.1.6.3 Read the Flash Memory Sector Protection Status
The Flash memory sector protection status is read with an instruction composed of 4 operations: 3 specific write operations and a read operation (see Table 8). The read operation will produce 01h if the Flash sector is protected, or 00h if the sector is not protected.
The sector protection status for all NVM blocks (main Flash or secondary Flash) can also be read by the microcontroller accessing the Flash Protection and Flash Boot Protection registers in PSD I/O space. See section 9.1.1.9.1 for register definitions.
9.1.1.6.4 Read the Erase/Program Status Bits
The PSD835G2 provides several status bits to be used by the microcontroller to confirm the completion of an erase or programming instruction of Flash memory. These status bits minimize the time that the microcontroller spends performing these tasks and are defined in Table 9. The status bits can be read as many times as needed.

The PSD835G2 Functional Blocks
(cont.)
9.1.1.6.5 Data Polling Flag DQ7
When Erasing or Programming the Flash memory bit DQ7 outputs the complement of the bit being entered for Programming/Writing on DQ7. Once the Program instruction or the Write operation is completed, the true logic value is read on DQ7 (in a Read operation). Flash memory specific features:
Data Polling is effective after the fourth Write pulse (for programming) or after the
sixth Write pulse (for Erase). It must be performed at the address being programmed or at an address within the Flash sector being erased.
During an Erase instruction, DQ7 outputs a 0. After completion of the instruction,
DQ7 will output the last bit programmed (it is a 1 after erasing).
If the location to be programmed is in a protected Flash sector, the instruction is
ignored.
If all the Flash sectors to be erased are protected, DQ7 will be set to 0 for
about 100 µs, and then return to the previous addressed location. No erasure will be performed.
9.1.1.6.6 Toggle Flag DQ6
The PSD835G2 offers another way for determining when the Flash memory Program instruction is completed. During the internal Write operation and when either the FSi or CSBOOTi is true, the DQ6 will toggle from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0 on subsequent attempts to read any byte of the memory.
When the internal cycle is complete, the toggling will stop and the data read on the Data Bus D0-7 is the addressed memory location. The device is now accessible for a new Read or Write operation. The operation is finished when two successive reads yield the same output data. Flash memory specific features:
The Toggle bit is effective after the fourth Write pulse (for programming) or after the
sixth Write pulse (for Erase).
If the location to be programmed belongs to a protected Flash sector, the instruction
is ignored.
If all the Flash sectors selected for erasure are protected, DQ6 will toggle to 0 for
about 100 µs and then return to the previous addressed location.
9.1.1.6.7 Error Flag DQ5
During a correct Program or Erase, the Error bit will set to 0. This bit is set to 1 when there is a failure during Flash programming, Sector erase, or Bulk Erase.
In the case of Flash programming, the Error Bit indicates the attempt to program a Flash bit(s) from the programmed state (0) to the erased state (1), which is not a valid operation. The Error bit may also indicate a timeout condition while attempting to program a byte.
In case of an error in Flash sector erase or byte program, the Flash sector in which the error occurred or to which the programmed location belongs must no longer be used. Other Flash sectors may still be used. The Error bit resets after the Reset instruction.
9.1.1.6.8 Erase Time-out Flag DQ3
The Erase Timer bit reflects the time-out period allowed between two consecutive Sector Erase instructions. The Erase timer bit is set to 0 after a Sector Erase instruction for a time period of 100 µs + 20% unless an additional Sector Erase instruction is decoded. After this time period or when the additional Sector Erase instruction is decoded, DQ3 is set to 1.
PSD8XX Family PSD835G2

9.1.1.7 Programming Flash Memory
Flash memory must be erased prior to being programmed. The MCU may erase Flash memory all at once or by-sector. Flash memory sector erases to all logic ones (FF hex), and its bits are programmed to logic zeros. Although erasing Flash memory occurs on a sector basis, programming Flash memory occurs on a word basis.
The PSD835G2 main Flash and secondary Flash memories require the MCU to send an instruction to program a word or perform an erase function (see Table 8).
Once the MCU issues a Flash memory program or erase instruction, it must check for the status of completion. The embedded algorithms that are invoked inside the PSD835G2 support several means to provide status to the MCU. Status may be checked using any of three methods: Data Polling, Data Toggle, or the Ready/Busy output pin.
9.1.1.7.1 Data Polling
Polling on DQ7 is a method of checking whether a Program or Erase instruction is in progress or has completed. Figure 4 shows the Data Polling algorithm.
When the MCU issues a programming instruction, the embedded algorithm within the PSD835G2 begins. The MCU then reads the location of the word to be programmed in Flash to check status. Data bit DQ7 of this location becomes the compliment of data bit 7of the original data word to be programmed. The MCU continues to poll this location, comparing DQ7 and monitoring the Error bit on DQ5. When the DQ7 matches data bit 7 of the original data, and the Error bit at DQ5 remains 0, then the embedded algorithm is complete. If the Error bit at DQ5 is 1, the MCU should test DQ7 again since DQ7 may have changed simultaneously with DQ5 (see Figure 4).
The Error bit at DQ5 will be set if either an internal timeout occurred while the embedded algorithm attempted to program the location or if the MCU attempted to program a 1 to a bit that was not erased (not erased is logic 0).
It is suggested (as with all Flash memories) to read the location again after the embedded programming algorithm has completed to compare the word that was written to Flash with the word that was intended to be written.
When using the Data Polling method after an erase instruction, Figure 4 still applies. However, DQ7 will be 0 until the erase operation is complete. A 1 on DQ5 will indicate a timeout failure of the erase operation, a 0 indicates no error. The MCU can read any location within the sector being erased to get DQ7 and DQ5.
PSDsoft generates ANSI C code functions which implement these Data Polling algorithms.

When the MCU issues a programming instruction, the embedded algorithm within the PSD835G2 begins. The MCU then reads the location to be programmed in Flash to check status. Data bit DQ6 of this location will toggle each time the MCU reads this location until the embedded algorithm is complete. The MCU continues to read this location, checking DQ6 and monitoring the Error bit on DQ5. When DQ6 stops toggling (two consecutive reads yield the same value), and the Error bit on DQ5 remains 0, then the embedded algorithm is complete. If the Error bit on DQ5 is 1, the MCU should test DQ6 again, since DQ6 may have changed simultaneously with DQ5 (see Figure 5).
The Error bit at DQ5 will be set if either an internal timeout occurred while the embedded algorithm attempted to program, or if the MCU attempted to program a 1 to a bit that was not erased (not erased is logic 0).

9.1.1.7.2 Data Toggle (cont.)
It is suggested (as with all Flash memories) to read the location again after the embedded programming algorithm has completed to compare the word that was written to Flash with the word that was intended to be written.
When using the Data Toggle method after an erase instructin, Figure 5 still applies. DQ6 will toggle until the erase operation is complete. A 1 on DQ5 will indicate a timeout failure of the erase operation, a 0 indicates no error. The MCU can read any even location within the sector being erased to get DQ6 and DQ5.
PSDsoft generates ANSI C code functions which implement these Data Toggling algorithms.

9.1.1.8 Unlock Bypass Instruction
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program words to the flash memories faster than using the standard program instruction. The unlock bypass instruction is initiated by first writing two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third write cycle containing the unlock bypass command, 20h (see Table 8). The flash memory then enters the unlock bypass mode. A two-cycle Unlock Bypass Program instruction is all that is required to program in this mode. The first cycle in this instruction contains the unlock bypass programm command, A0h; the second cycle contains the program address and data. Additional data is programmed in the same manner. This mode dispenses with the initial two unlock cycles required in the standard program instruction, resulting in faster total programming time. During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock Bypass Program and Unlock Bypass Reset instructions are valid. To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system must issue the two-cycle unlock bypass reset instruction. The first cycle must contain the data 90h; the second cycle the data 00h. Addresses are dont care for both cycles. The Flash memory then returns to reading array data mode.
9.1.1.9 Erasing Flash Memory
9.1.1.9.1. Flash Bulk Erase Instruction
The Flash Bulk Erase instruction uses six write operations followed by a Read operation of the status register, as described in Table 8. If any byte of the Bulk Erase instruction is wrong, the Bulk Erase instruction aborts and the device is reset to the Read Flash memory status.
During a Bulk Erase, the memory status may be checked by reading status bits DQ5, DQ6, and DQ7, as detailed in section 9.1.1.7. The Error bit (DQ5) returns a 1 if there has been an Erase Failure (maximum number of erase cycles have been executed).
It is not necessary to program the array with 00h because the PSD835G2 will automatically do this before erasing to 0FFh.
During execution of the Bulk Erase instruction, the Flash memory will not accept any instructions.
9.1.1.9.2 Flash Sector Erase Instruction
The Sector Erase instruction uses six write operations, as described in Table 8. Additional Flash Sector Erase confirm commands and Flash sector addresses can be written subsequently to erase other Flash sectors in parallel, without further coded cycles, if the additional instruction is transmitted in a shorter time than the timeout period of about 100 µs. The input of a new Sector Erase instruction will restart the time-out period.
The status of the internal timer can be monitored through the level of DQ3 (Erase time-out bit). If DQ3 is 0, the Sector Erase instruction has been received and the timeout is counting. If DQ3 is 1, the timeout has expired and the PSD835G2 is busy erasing the Flash sector(s). Before and during Erase timeout, any instruction other than Erase suspend and Erase Resume will abort the instruction and reset the device to Read Array mode. It is not necessary to program the Flash sector with 00h as the PSD835G2 will do this automatically before erasing.
During a Sector Erase, the memory status may be checked by reading status bits DQ5, DQ6, and DQ7, as detailed in section 9.1.1.7.
During execution of the erase instruction, the Flash block logic accepts only Reset and Erase Suspend instructions. Erasure of one Flash sector may be suspended, in order to read data from another Flash sector, and then resumed.

9.1.1.9.3 Flash Erase Suspend Instruction
When a Flash Sector Erase operation is in progress, the Erase Suspend instruction will suspend the operation by writing 0B0h to any even address when an appropriate Chip Select (FSi or CSBOOTi) is true. (See Table 8). This allows reading of data from another Flash sector after the Erase operation has been suspended. Erase suspend is accepted only during the Flash Sector Erase instruction execution and defaults to read array mode. An Erase Suspend instruction executed during an Erase timeout will, in addition to suspending the erase, terminate the time out.
The Toggle Bit DQ6 stops toggling when the PSD835G2 internal logic is suspended. The toggle Bit status must be monitored at an address within the Flash sector being erased. The Toggle Bit will stop toggling between 0.1 µs and 15 µs after the Erase Suspend instruction has been executed. The PSD835G2 will then automatically be set to Read Flash Block Memory Array mode.
If an Erase Suspend instruction was executed, the following rules apply:
Attempting to read from a Flash sector that was being erased will output invalid data.
Reading from a Flash sector that was not being erased is valid.
The Flash memory cannot be programmed, and will only respond to Erase Resume
and Reset instructions (read is an operation and is OK).
If a Reset instruction is received, data in the Flash sector that was being erased will
be invalid.
9.1.1.9.4 Flash Erase Resume Instruction
If an Erase Suspend instruction was previously executed, the erase operation may be resumed by this instruction. The Erase Resume instruction consists of writing 030h to any even address while an appropriate Chip Select (FSi or CSBOOTi) is true. (See Table 8.)
9.1.1.10 Specific Features
9.1.1.10.1 Main Flash and Secondary Flash Sector Protect
Each sector of main Flash and secondary Flash memory can be separately protected against Program and Erase functions. Sector Protection provides additional data security because it disables all program or erase operations. This mode can be activated (or deactivated) through the JTAG-ISP Port or a Device Programmer.
Sector protection can be selected for each sector using the PSDsoft program. This will automatically protect selected sectors when the device is programmed through the JTAG Port or a Device Programmer. Flash sectors can be unprotected to allow updating of their contents using the JTAG Port or a Device Programmer. The microcontroller can read (but cannot change) the sector protection bits.
Any attempt to program or erase a protected Flash sector will be ignored by the device. The Verify operation will result in a read of the protected data. This allows a guarantee of the retention of the Protection status.
The sector protection status can either be read by the MCU through the Flash protection and secondary Flash protection registers (CSIOP) or use the read sector protection instruction (Table 8).

9.1.1.10.2 Reset Instruction
The Reset instruction consists of one write cycle (see Table 8). It can also be optionally preceded by the standard two write decoding cycles (writing AAh to AAAh and 55h to 554h).
The Reset instruction must be executed after:
1. Reading the Flash Protection status or Flash ID using the Flash instruction.
2. When an error condition occurs (DQ5 goes high) during a Flash programming or erase cycle.
The Reset instruction will reset the Flash to normal Read Mode immediately. However, if there is an error condition (DQ5 goes high), the Flash memory will return to the Read Mode in 25 µSeconds after the Reset instruction is issued.
The Reset instruction is ignored when it is issued during a Flash programming or Bulk Erase cycle. The Reset instruction will abort the on going sector erase cycle and return the Flash memory to normal Read Mode in 25 µSeconds.
9.1.1.10.3 Reset Pin Input
The reset pulse input from the pin will abort any operation in progress and reset the Flash memory to Read Mode. When the reset occurs during a programming or erase cycle, the Flash memory will take up to 25 µSeconds to return to Read Mode. It is recommended that the reset pulse (except power on reset, see Reset Section) be at least 25 µSeconds such that the Flash memory will always be ready for the MCU to fetch the boot code after reset is over.

9.1.2 SRAM
The SRAM is enabled when RS0 the SRAM chip select output from the DPLD is high. RS0 can contain up to three product terms, allowing flexible memory mapping.
The SRAM can be backed up using an external battery. The external battery should be connected to the Vstby pin (PE6). If you have an external battery connected to the PSD835G2, the contents of the SRAM will be retained in the event of a power loss. The contents of the SRAM will be retained so long as the battery voltage remains at 2V or greater. If the supply voltage falls below the battery voltage, an internal power switchover to the battery occurs.
Pin PE7 can be configured as an output that indicates when power is being drawn from the external battery. This Vbaton signal will be high with the supply voltage falls below the bat­tery voltage and the battery on PE6 is supplying power to the internal SRAM.
The chip select signal (RS0) for the SRAM, Vstby, and Vbaton are all configured using PSDsoft.
9.1.3 Memory Select Signals
The main Flash (FSi), secondary Flash (CSBOOTi), and SRAM (RS0) memory select signals are all outputs of the DPLD. They are defined using PSDsoft. The following rules apply to the equations for the internal chip select signals:
1. Main Flash memory and secondary Flash memory sector select signals must not be larger than the physical sector size.
2. Any main Flash memory sector must not be mapped in the same memory space as another Main Flash sector.
3. A secondary Flash memory sector must not be mapped in the same memory space as another Flash Boot sector.
4. SRAM and I/O spaces must not overlap.
5. A secondary Flash memory sector may overlap a main Flash memory sector. In case of overlap, priority will be given to the Flash Boot sector.
6. SRAM and I/O spaces may overlap any other memory sector. Priority will be given to the SRAM and I/O.
Example
FS0 is valid when the address is in the range of 8000h to BFFFh, CSBOOT0 is valid from 8000h to 9FFFh, and RS0 is valid from 8000h to 87FFh. Any address in the range of RS0 will always access the SRAM. Any address in the range of CSBOOT0 greater than 87FFh (and less than 9FFFh) will automatically address Boot memory segment 0. Any address greater than 9FFFh will access the Flash memory segment 0. You can see that half of the Flash memory segment 0 and one-fourth of Boot segment 0 can not be accessed in this example. Also note that an equation that defined FS1 to anywhere in the range of 8000h to BFFFh would not be valid.
Figure 6 shows the priority levels for all memory components. Any component on a higher level can overlap and has priority over any component on a lower level. Components on the same level must not overlap. Level one has the highest priority and level 3 has the lowest.

9.1.3.1. Memory Select Configuration for MCUs with Separate Program and Data Spaces
The 80C51 and compatible family of microcontrollers, can be configured to have separate address spaces for code memory (selected using PSEN) and data memory (selected using RD). Any of the memories within the PSD835G2 can reside in either space or both spaces. This is controlled through manipulation of the VM register that resides in the PSDs CSIOP space.
The VM register is set using PSDsoft to have an initial value. It can subsequently be changed by the microcontroller so that memory mapping can be changed on-the-fly. For example, you may wish to have SRAM and main Flash in Data Space at boot, and secondary Flash memory in Program Space at boot, and later swap main and secondary Flash memory. This is easily done with the VM register by using PSDsoft to configure it for boot up and having the microcontroller change it when desired.
Table 11 describes the VM Register.
