Notice On Data Sheet Designations
Spansion Inc. issues data sheets with Advance Information or Preliminary designations to advise readers of
product information or intended specifications throughout the product life cycle, including development,
qualification, initial production, and full production. In all cases, however, readers are encouraged to verify
that they have the latest information before finalizing their design. The following descriptions of Spansion data
sheet designations are presented here to highlight their presence and definitions.
Advance Information
The Advance Information designation indicates that Spansion Inc. is developing one or more specific
products, but has not committed any design to production. Information presented in a document with this
designation is likely to change, and in some cases, development on the product may discontinue. Spansion
Inc. therefore places the following conditions upon Advance Information content:
“This document contains information on one or more products under development at Spansion Inc.
The information is intended to help you evaluate this product. Do not design in this product without
contacting the factory. Spansion Inc. reserves the right to change or discontinue work on this proposed
product without notice.”
Preliminary
The Preliminary designation indicates that the product development has progressed such that a commitment
to production has taken place. This designation covers several aspects of the product life cycle, including
product qualification, initial production, and the subsequent phases in the manufacturing process that occur
before full production is achieved. Changes to the technical specifications presented in a Preliminary
document should be expected while keeping these aspects of production under consideration. Spansion
places the following conditions upon Preliminary content:
“This document states the current technical specifications regarding the Spansion product(s)
described herein. The Preliminary status of this document indicates that product qualification has been
completed, and that initial production has begun. Due to the phases of the manufacturing process that
require maintaining efficiency and quality, this document may be revised by subsequent versions or
modifications due to changes in technical specifications.”
Combination
Some data sheets contain a combination of products with different designations (Advance Information,
Preliminary, or Full Production). This type of document distinguishes these products and their designations
wherever necessary, typically on the first page, the ordering information page, and pages with the DC
Characteristics table and the AC Erase and Program table (in the table notes). The disclaimer on the first
page refers the reader to the notice on this page.
Full Production (No Designation on Document)
When a product has been in production for a period of time such that no changes or only nominal changes
are expected, the Preliminary designation is removed from the data sheet. Nominal changes may include
those affecting the number of ordering part numbers available, such as the addition or deletion of a speed
option, temperature range, package type, or VIO range. Changes may also include those needed to clarify a
description or to correct a typographical error or incorrect specification. Spansion Inc. applies the following
conditions to documents in this category:
“This document states the current technical specifications regarding the Spansion product(s)
described herein. Spansion Inc. deems the products to have been in sufficient production volume such
that subsequent versions of this document are not expected to change. However, typographical or
specification corrections, or modifications to the valid combinations offered may occur.”
Questions regarding these document designations may be directed to your local sales office.

1. Simultaneous Read/Write Operation with Zero Latency
The Simultaneous Read/Write architecture provides simultaneous operation by dividing the memory space
into 4 banks, which can be considered to be four separate memory arrays as far as certain operations are
concerned. The device can improve overall system performance by allowing a host system to program or
erase in one bank, then immediately and simultaneously read from another bank with zero latency (with two
simultaneous operations operating at any one time). This releases the system from waiting for the completion
of a program or erase operation, greatly improving system performance.
The device can be organized in both top and bottom sector configurations. The banks are organized as
follows:
1.1 Page Mode Features
The page size is 8 words. After initial page access is accomplished, the page mode operation provides fast
read access speed of random locations within that page.

1.2 Standard Flash Memory Features
The device requires a single 3.0 volt power supply (2.7 V to 3.6 V) for both read and write functions.
Internally generated and regulated voltages are provided for the program and erase operations.
The device is entirely command set compatible with the JEDEC 42.4 single-power-supply Flash standard.
Commands are written to the command register using standard microprocessor write timing. Register
contents serve as inputs to an internal state-machine that controls the erase and programming circuitry. Write
cycles also internally latch addresses and data needed for the programming and erase operations. Reading
data out of the device is similar to reading from other Flash or EPROM devices.
Device programming occurs by executing the program command sequence. The Unlock Bypass mode
facilitates faster programming times by requiring only two write cycles to program data instead of four. Device
erasure occurs by executing the erase command sequence.
The host system can detect whether a program or erase operation is complete by reading the DQ7 (Data#
Polling) and DQ6 (toggle) status bits. After a program or erase cycle has been completed, the device is
ready to read array data or accept another command.
The sector erase architecture allows memory sectors to be erased and reprogrammed without affecting the
data contents of other sectors. The device is fully erased when shipped from the factory.
Hardware data protection measures include a low VCC detector that automatically inhibits write operations
during power transitions. The hardware sector protection feature disables both program and erase operations
in any combination of sectors of memory. This can be achieved in-system or via programming equipment.
The Erase Suspend/Erase Resume feature enables the user to put erase on hold for any period of time to
read data from, or program data to, any sector that is not selected for erasure. True background erase can
thus be achieved. If a read is needed from the Secured Silicon Sector area (One Time Program area) after an
erase suspend, then the user must use the proper command sequence to enter and exit this region.
The Program Suspend/Program Resume feature enables the user to hold the program operation to read
data from any sector that is not selected for programming. If a read is needed from the Secured Silicon Sector
area, Persistent Protection area, Dynamic Protection area, or the CFI area, after a program suspend, then the
user must use the proper command sequence to enter and exit this region.
The device offers two power-saving features. When addresses have been stable for a specified amount of
time, the device enters the automatic sleep mode. The system can also place the device into the standby
mode. Power consumption is greatly reduced in both these modes.
The device electrically erases all bits within a sector simultaneously via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data
is programmed using hot electron injection.

7.5 56-Pin TSOP 20 x 14 mm
Figure 7.4 56-Pin TSOP 20 x 14 mm Configuration—PL127J
For this family of products, a single multi-chip compatible package (TSOP) is offered for each density to allow
both standalone and multi-chip qualification using a single, adaptable package. This new methodology allows
package standardization resulting in faster development. The multi-chip compatible package includes all the
pins required for standalone device operation and verification. In addition, extra pins are included for insertion
of common data storage or logic devices to be used for multi-chip products. If a standalone device is required,
the extra multi-chip specific pins are not connected and the standalone device operates normally. The multi-
chip compatible package sizes were chosen to serve the largest number of combinations possible. There are
only a few cases where a larger package size would be required to accommodate the multi-chip combination.
This multi-chip compatible package set does not allow for direct package migration from the Am29BDS128H,
Am29BDS128G, Am29BDS640G products, which use legacy standalone packages.

10. Device Bus Operations
This section describes the requirements and use of the device bus operations, which are initiated through the
internal command register. The command register itself does not occupy any addressable memory location.
The register is a latch used to store the commands, along with the address and data information needed to
execute the command. The contents of the register serve as inputs to the internal state machine. The state
machine outputs dictate the function of the device. Table 10.1 lists the device bus operations, the inputs and
control levels they require, and the resulting output. The following subsections describe each of these
operations in further detail.
Legend:
L = Logic Low = VIL, H = Logic High = VIH, VID = 11.5–12.5 V, V HH = 8.5–9.5 V, X = Don’t Care, SA = Sector Address, AIN = Address In, DIN
= Data In, DOUT = Data Out
Notes
1. The sector protect and sector unprotect functions may also be implemented via programming equipment. See High Voltage Sector
Protection on page 52.
2. WP#/ACC must be high when writing to upper two and lower two sectors.
10.1 Requirements for Reading Array Data
To read array data from the outputs, the system must drive the OE# and appropriate CE# pins (For PL129J -
CE1#/CE2# pins) to VIL. In PL129J, CE1# and CE2# are the power control and select the lower (CE1#) or
upper (CE2#) halves of the device. CE# is the power control. OE# is the output control and gates array data
to the output pins. WE# should remain at VIH.
The internal state machine is set for reading array data upon device power-up, or after a hardware reset. This
ensures that no spurious alteration of the memory content occurs during the power transition. No command is
necessary in this mode to obtain array data. Standard microprocessor read cycles that assert valid addresses
on the device address inputs produce valid data on the device data outputs. Each bank remains enabled for
read access until the command register contents are altered.
Refer to Table 21.3 on page 88 for timing specifications and to Figure 20.3 on page 77 for the timing diagram.
ICC1 in the DC Characteristics table represents the active current specification for reading array data.

Data Sheet
10.1.1 Random Read (Non-Page Read)
Address access time (tACC) is equal to the delay from stable addresses to valid output data. The chip enable
access time (tCE) is the delay from the stable addresses and stable CE# to valid data at the output inputs. The
output enable access time is the delay from the falling edge of the OE# to valid data at the output inputs
(assuming the addresses have been stable for at least tACC–tOE time).
10.1.2 Page Mode Read
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. Address bits
Amax–A3 select an 8 word page, and address bits A2–A0 select a specific word within that page. This is an
asynchronous operation with the microprocessor supplying the specific word location.
The random or initial page access is tACC or tCE and subsequent page read accesses (as long as the
locations specified by the microprocessor falls within that page) is equivalent to tPACC . When CE# (CE1# and
CE#2 in PL129J) is deasserted (=VIH), the reassertion of CE# (CE1# or CE#2 in PL129J) for subsequent
access has access time of tACC or tCE. Here again, CE# (CE1# /CE#2 in PL129J)selects the device and OE#
is the output control and should be used to gate data to the output inputs if the device is selected. Fast page
mode accesses are obtained by keeping Amax–A3 constant and changing A2–A0 to select the specific word
within that page.
10.2 Simultaneous Read/Write Operation
In addition to the conventional features (read, program, erase-suspend read, erase-suspend program, and
program-suspend read), the device is capable of reading data from one bank of memory while a program or
erase operation is in progress in another bank of memory (simultaneous operation). The bank can be
selected by bank addresses (PL127J: A22–A20, PL129J and PL064J: A21–A19, PL032J: A20–A18) with
zero latency.
The simultaneous operation can execute multi-function mode in the same bank.

Data Sheet
10.3 Writing Commands/Command Sequences
To write a command or command sequence (which includes programming data to the device and erasing
sectors of memory), the system must drive WE# and CE# (CE1# or CE#2 in PL129J) to VIL, and OE# to VIH.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facilitate faster programming. Once a bank enters the
Unlock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required to program a word, instead of four. Word Program
Command Sequence on page 61 has details on programming data to the device using both standard and
Unlock Bypass command sequences.
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sectors, or the entire device. Table 10.4 on page 24
indicates the set of address space that each sector occupies. A “bank address” is the set of address bits
required to uniquely select a bank. Similarly, a “sector address” refers to the address bits required to uniquely
select a sector. Command Definitions on page 59 has details on erasing a sector or the entire chip, or
suspending/resuming the erase operation.
ICC2 in the DC Characteristics on page 75 represents the active current specification for the write mode. See
the timing specification tables and timing diagrams in section Reset on page 79 for write operations.
10.3.1 Accelerated Program Operation
The device offers accelerated program operations through the ACC function. This function is primarily
intended to allow faster manufacturing throughput at the factory.
If the system asserts VHH on this pin, the device automatically enters the aforementioned Unlock Bypass
mode, temporarily unprotects any protected sectors, and uses the higher voltage on the pin to reduce the
time required for program operations. The system would use a two-cycle program command sequence as
required by the Unlock Bypass mode. Removing VHH from the WP#/ACC pin returns the device to normal
operation. Note that VHH must not be asserted on WP#/ACC for operations other than accelerated
programming, or device damage may result. In addition, the WP#/ACC pin should be raised to VCC when not
in use. That is, the WP#/ACC pin should not be left floating or unconnected; inconsistent behavior of the
device may result.
10.3.2 Autoselect Functions
If the system writes the autoselect command sequence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The system
can then read autoselect codes from the internal register (which is separate from the memory array) on
DQ15–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings apply in this mode. Refer to the Table 10.9, Secured Silicon Sector
Addresses on page 43 and Autoselect Command Sequence on page 60 for more information.
10.4 Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the device, it can place the device in the standby mode. In this
mode, current consumption is greatly reduced, and the outputs are placed in the high impedance state,
independent of the OE# input.
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the CE# (CE1#,CE#2 in PL129J) and RESET# pins are
both held at VIO ± 0.3 V. (Note that this is a more restricted voltage range than VIH.) If CE# (CE1#,CE#2 in
PL129J) and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within VIO ± 0.3 V, the device will be in the standby mode, but
the standby current will be greater. The device requires standard access time (tCE) for read access when the
device is in either of these standby modes, 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.
ICC3 in DC Characteristics on page 75 represents the CMOS standby current specification.
26 S29PL-J S29PL-J_00_A16 April 18, 2013
Data Sheet
10.5 Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device energy consumption. The device automatically enables
this mode when addresses remain stable for tACC + 30 ns. The automatic sleep mode is independent of the
CE#, WE#, and OE# control signals. Standard address access timings provide new data when addresses are
changed. While in sleep mode, output data is latched and always available to the system. Note that during
automatic sleep mode, OE# must be at VIH before the device reduces current to the stated sleep mode
specification. ICC5 in DC Characteristics on page 75 represents the automatic sleep mode current
specification.
10.6 RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data. When the
RESET# pin is driven low for at least a period of tRP, the device immediately terminates any operation in
progress, tristates all output pins, 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.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET# pulse. When RESET# is held at VSS±0.3 V, the device
draws CMOS standby current (ICC4). If RESET# is held at VIL but not within VSS±0.3 V, the standby current
will be greater.
The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset circuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the Flash
memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase operation, the RY/BY# pin remains a “0” (busy) until the
internal reset operation is complete, which requires a time of tREADY (during Embedded Algorithms). The
system can thus monitor RY/BY# to determine whether the reset operation is complete. If RESET# is
asserted when a program or erase operation is not executing (RY/BY# pin is “1”), the reset operation is
completed within a time of tREADY (not during Embedded Algorithms). The system can read data tRH after the
RESET# pin returns to VIH.
Refer to the tables in AC Characteristic on page 76 for RESET# parameters and to Figure 20.5 on page 79
for the timing diagram.
10.7 Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is disabled. The output pins (except for RY/BY#) are
placed in the highest Impedance state

Data Sheet
10.8 Autoselect Mode
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device identification, and sector protection verification,
through identifier codes output on DQ7–DQ0. This mode is primarily intended for programming equipment to
automatically match a device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algorithm. However, the
autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system through the command register.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect mode requires VID on address pin A9. Address pins
must be as shown in Table 10.10 on page 44 and Table 10.11 on page 44. In addition, when verifying sector
protection, the sector address must appear on the appropriate highest order address bits (see Table 10.4
on page 24). Table 10.10 and Table 10.11 show the remaining address bits that are don’t care. When all
necessary bits have been set as required, the programming equipment may then read the corresponding
identifier code on DQ7–DQ0. However, the autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system through the
command register, for instances when the device is erased or programmed in a system without access to
high voltage on the A9 pin. The command sequence is illustrated in Table 15.1 on page 66. Note that if a
Bank Address (BA) (on address bits PL127J: A22A20, PL129J and PL064J: A21A19, PL032J: A20–A18) is
asserted during the third write cycle of the autoselect command, the host system can read autoselect data
that bank and then immediately read array data from the other bank, without exiting the autoselect mode.

Data Sheet
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected. Optional Spansion programming services enable
programming and protecting sectors at the factory prior to shipping the device. Contact your local sales office
for details.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or unprotected. See the Table 10.9, Secured Silicon
Sector Addresses on page 43 for details.
11. Sector Protection
The PL127J, PL129J, PL064J, and PL032J features several levels of sector protection, which can disable
both the program and erase operations in certain sectors or sector groups:
11.1 Persistent Sector Protection
A command sector protection method that replaces the old 12 V controlled protection method.
11.2 Password Sector Protection
A highly sophisticated protection method that requires a password before changes to certain sectors or sector
groups are permitted
11.3 WP# Hardware Protection
A write protect pin that can prevent program or erase operations in sectors SA1-133, SA1-134, SA2-0 and
SA2-1.
The WP# Hardware Protection feature is always available, independent of the software managed protection
method chosen.
11.4 Selecting a Sector Protection Mode
All parts default to operate in the Persistent Sector Protection mode. The customer must then choose if the
Persistent or Password Protection method is most desirable. There are two one-time programmable non-
volatile bits that define which sector protection method will be used. If the Persistent Sector Protection
method is desired, programming the Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit permanently sets the
device to the Persistent Sector Protection mode. If the Password Sector Protection method is desired,
programming the Password Mode Locking Bit permanently sets the device to the Password Sector Protection
mode. It is not possible to switch between the two protection modes once a locking bit has been set. One of
the two modes must be selected when the device is first programmed. This prevents a program or virus from
later setting the Password Mode Locking Bit, which would cause an unexpected shift from the default
Persistent Sector Protection Mode into the Password Protection Mode.
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected. Optional Spansion programming services enable
programming and protecting sectors at the factory prior to shipping the device. Contact your local sales office
for details.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or unprotected. See Autoselect Mode on page 43 for
details.

12. Persistent Sector Protection
The Persistent Sector Protection method replaces the 12 V controlled protection method in previous flash
devices. This new method provides three different sector protection states:
Persistently Locked—The sector is protected and cannot be changed.
Dynamically Locked—The sector is protected and can be changed by a simple command.
Unlocked—The sector is unprotected and can be changed by a simple command.
To achieve these states, three types of “bits” are used:
Persistent Protection Bit
Persistent Protection Bit Lock
Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit
12.1 Persistent Protection Bit (PPB)
A single Persistent (non-volatile) Protection Bit is assigned to a maximum four sectors (see the sector
address tables for specific sector protection groupings). All 4 Kword boot-block sectors have individual sector
Persistent Protection Bits (PPBs) for greater flexibility. Each PPB is individually modifiable through the PPB
Write Command.
The device erases all PPBs in parallel. If any PPB requires erasure, the device must be instructed to
preprogram all of the sector PPBs prior to PPB erasure. Otherwise, a previously erased sector PPBs can
potentially be over-erased. The flash device does not have a built-in means of preventing sector PPBs over-
erasure.
12.2 Persistent Protection Bit Lock (PPB Lock)
The Persistent Protection Bit Lock (PPB Lock) is a global volatile bit. When set to “1”, the PPBs cannot be
changed. When cleared (“0”), the PPBs are changeable. There is only one PPB Lock bit per device. The PPB
Lock is cleared after power-up or hardware reset. There is no command sequence to unlock the PPB Lock.
12.3 Dynamic Protection Bit (DYB)
A volatile protection bit is assigned for each sector. After power-up or hardware reset, the contents of all
DYBs is “0”. Each DYB is individually modifiable through the DYB Write Command.
When the parts are first shipped, the PPBs are cleared, the DYBs are cleared, and PPB Lock is defaulted to
power up in the cleared state – meaning the PPBs are changeable.
When the device is first powered on the DYBs power up cleared (sectors not protected). The Protection State
for each sector is determined by the logical OR of the PPB and the DYB related to that sector. For the sectors
that have the PPBs cleared, the DYBs control whether or not the sector is protected or unprotected. By
issuing the DYB Write command sequences, the DYBs will be set or cleared, thus placing each sector in the
protected or unprotected state. These are the so-called Dynamic Locked or Unlocked states. They are called
dynamic states because it is very easy to switch back and forth between the protected and unprotected
conditions. This allows software to easily protect sectors against inadvertent changes yet does not prevent
the easy removal of protection when changes are needed. The DYBs maybe set or cleared as often as
needed.
The PPBs allow for a more static, and difficult to change, level of protection. The PPBs retain their state
across power cycles because they are non-volatile. Individual PPBs are set with a command but must all be
cleared as a group through a complex sequence of program and erasing commands. The PPBs are also
limited to 100 erase cycles.
The PPB Lock bit adds an additional level of protection. Once all PPBs are programmed to the desired
settings, the PPB Lock may be set to “1”. Setting the PPB Lock disables all program and erase commands to
the non-volatile PPBs. In effect, the PPB Lock Bit locks the PPBs into their current state. The only way to
clear the PPB Lock is to go through a power cycle. System boot code can determine if any changes to the
PPB are needed; for example, to allow new system code to be downloaded. If no changes are needed then
the boot code can set the PPB Lock to disable any further changes to the PPBs during system operation.
50 S29PL-J S29PL-J_00_A16 April 18, 2013
Data Sheet
The WP#/ACC write protect pin adds a final level of hardware protection to sectors SA1-133, SA1-134, SA2-
0 and SA2-1. When this pin is low it is not possible to change the contents of these sectors. These sectors
generally hold system boot code. The WP#/ACC pin can prevent any changes to the boot code that could
override the choices made while setting up sector protection during system initialization.
For customers who are concerned about malicious viruses there is another level of security - the persistently
locked state. To persistently protect a given sector or sector group, the PPBs associated with that sector need
to be set to “1”. Once all PPBs are programmed to the desired settings, the PPB Lock should be set to “1”.
Setting the PPB Lock automatically disables all program and erase commands to the Non-Volatile PPBs. In
effect, the PPB Lock “freezes” the PPBs into their current state. The only way to clear the PPB Lock is to go
through a power cycle.
It is possible to have sectors that have been persistently locked, and sectors that are left in the dynamic state.
The sectors in the dynamic state are all unprotected. If there is a need to protect some of them, a simple DYB
Write command sequence is all that is necessary. The DYB write command for the dynamic sectors switch
the DYBs to signify protected and unprotected, respectively. 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 disabled 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 will lock the PPBs, and the device operates normally
again.
The best protection is achieved by executing the PPB lock bit set command early in the boot code, and
protect the boot code by holding WP#/ACC = VIL.
Table 10.15 on page 48 contains all possible combinations of the DYB, PPB, and PPB lock relating to the
status of the sector.
In summary, if the PPB is set, and the PPB lock is set, the sector is protected and the protection can not be
removed until the next power cycle clears the PPB lock. If the PPB is cleared, the sector can be dynamically
locked or unlocked. The DYB then controls whether or not the sector is protected or unprotected.
If the user attempts to program or erase a protected sector, the device ignores the command and returns to
read mode. A program command to a protected sector enables status polling for approximately 1 µs before
the device returns to read mode without having modified the contents of the protected sector. An erase
command to a protected sector enables status polling for approximately 50 µs after which the device returns
to read mode without having erased the protected sector.
The programming of the DYB, PPB, and PPB lock for a given sector can be verified by writing a DYB/PPB/
PPB lock verify command to the device. There is an alternative means of reading the protection status. Take
RESET# to VIL and hold WE# at VIH. (The high voltage A9 Autoselect Mode also works for reading the status
of the PPBs). Scanning the addresses (A18–A11) while (A6, A1, A0) = (0, 1, 0) will produce a logical ‘1” code
at device output DQ0 for a protected sector or a “0” for an unprotected sector. In this mode, the other
addresses are don’t cares. Address location with A1 = VIL are reserved for autoselect manufacturer and
device codes.
12.4 Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit
Like the password mode locking bit, a Persistent Sector Protection mode locking bit exists to guarantee that
the device remain in software sector protection. Once set, the Persistent Sector Protection locking bit
prevents programming of the password protection mode locking bit. This guarantees that a hacker could not
place the device in password protection mode.

Data Sheet
13. Password Protection Mode
The Password Sector Protection Mode method allows an even higher level of security than the Persistent
Sector Protection Mode. There are two main differences between the Persistent Sector Protection and the
Password Sector Protection Mode:
When the device is first powered on, or comes out of a reset cycle, the PPB Lock bit set to the locked state,
rather than cleared to the unlocked state.
The only means to clear the PPB Lock bit is by writing a unique 64-bit Password to the device.
The Password Sector Protection method is otherwise identical to the Persistent Sector Protection method.
A 64-bit password is the only additional tool utilized in this method.
Once the Password Mode Locking Bit is set, the password is permanently set with no means to read,
program, or erase it. The password is used to clear the PPB Lock bit. The Password Unlock command must
be written to the flash, along with a password. The flash device internally compares the given password with
the pre-programmed password. If they match, the PPB Lock bit is cleared, and the PPBs can be altered. If
they do not match, the flash device does nothing. There is a built-in 2 µs delay for each “password check.”
This delay is intended to thwart any efforts to run a program that tries all possible combinations in order to
crack the password.
13.1 Password and Password Mode Locking Bit
In order to select the Password sector protection scheme, the customer must first program the password. The
password may be correlated to the unique Electronic Serial Number (ESN) of the particular flash device.
Each ESN is different for every flash device; therefore each password should be different for every flash
device. While programming in the password region, the customer may perform Password Verify operations.
Once the desired password is programmed in, the customer must then set the Password Mode Locking Bit.
This operation achieves two objectives:
Permanently sets the device to operate using the Password Protection Mode. It is not possible to reverse this
function.
Disables all further commands to the password region. All program, and read operations are ignored.
Both of these objectives are important, and if not carefully considered, may lead to unrecoverable errors. The
user must be sure that the Password Protection method is desired when setting the Password Mode Locking
Bit. More importantly, the user must be sure that the password is correct when the Password Mode Locking
Bit is set. Due to the fact that read operations are disabled, there is no means to verify what the password is
afterwards. If the password is lost after setting the Password Mode Locking Bit, there will be no way to clear
the PPB Lock bit.
The Password Mode Locking Bit, once set, prevents reading the 64-bit password on the DQ bus and further
password programming. The Password Mode Locking Bit is not erasable. Once Password Mode Locking Bit
is programmed, the Persistent Sector Protection Locking Bit is disabled from programming, guaranteeing that
no changes to the protection scheme are allowed.
13.2 64-bit Password
The 64-bit Password is located in its own memory space and is accessible through the use of the Password
Program and Verify commands (see “Password Verify Command”). The password function works in
conjunction with the Password Mode Locking Bit, which when set, prevents the Password Verify command
from reading the contents of the password on the pins of the device.

Data Sheet
13.3 Write Protect (WP#)
The Write Protect feature provides a hardware method of protecting the upper two and lower two sectors
without using VID. This function is provided by the WP# pin and overrides the previously discussed High
Voltage Sector Protection on page 52 method.
If the system asserts VIL on the WP#/ACC pin, the device disables program and erase functions in the two
outermost 4 Kword sectors on both ends of the flash array independent of whether it was previously protected
or unprotected.
If the system asserts VIH on the WP#/ACC pin, the device reverts the upper two and lower two sectors to
whether they were last set to be protected or unprotected. That is, sector protection or unprotection for these
sectors depends on whether they were last protected or unprotected using the method described in the High
Voltage Sector Protection on page 52.
Note that the WP#/ACC pin must not be left floating or unconnected; inconsistent behavior of the device may
result.
13.3.1 Persistent Protection Bit Lock
The Persistent Protection Bit (PPB) Lock is a volatile bit that reflects the state of the Password Mode Locking
Bit after power-up reset. If the Password Mode Lock Bit is also set after a hardware reset (RESET# asserted)
or a power-up reset, the ONLY means for clearing the PPB Lock Bit in Password Protection Mode is to issue
the Password Unlock command. Successful execution of the Password Unlock command clears the PPB
Lock Bit, allowing for sector PPBs modifications. Asserting RESET#, taking the device through a power-on
reset, or issuing the PPB Lock Bit Set command sets the PPB Lock Bit to a “1” when the Password Mode
Lock Bit is not set.
If the Password Mode Locking Bit is not set, including Persistent Protection Mode, the PPB Lock Bit is cleared
after power-up or hardware reset. The PPB Lock Bit is set by issuing the PPB Lock Bit Set command. Once
set the only means for clearing the PPB Lock Bit is by issuing a hardware or power-up reset. The Password
Unlock command is ignored in Persistent Protection Mode.
13.4 High Voltage Sector Protection
Sector protection and unprotection may also be implemented using programming equipment. The procedure
requires high voltage (VID) to be placed on the RESET# pin. Refer to Figure 13.1 on page 53 for details on
this procedure. Note that for sector unprotect, all unprotected sectors must first be protected prior to the first
sector write cycle.

13.5 Temporary Sector Unprotect
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previously protected sectors to change data in-system. The
Sector Unprotect mode is activated by setting the RESET# pin to VID. During this mode, formerly protected
sectors can be programmed or erased by selecting the sector addresses. Once VID is removed from the
RESET# pin, all the previously protected sectors are protected again. Figure 13.2 on page 54 shows the
algorithm, and Figure 21.1 on page 85 shows the timing diagrams, for this feature. While PPB lock is set, the
device cannot enter the Temporary Sector Unprotection Mode.
Figure 13.2 Temporary Sector Unprotect Operation
Notes:
1. All protected sectors unprotected (If WP#/ACC = VIL, upper two and lower two sectors will remain protected).
2. All previously protected sectors are protected once again
13.6 Secured Silicon Sector Flash Memory Region
The Secured Silicon Sector feature provides a Flash memory region that enables permanent part
identification through an Electronic Serial Number (ESN) The 128-word Secured Silicon sector is divided into
64 factory-lockable words that can be programmed and locked by the customer. The Secured Silicon sector
is located at addresses 000000h-00007Fh in both Persistent Protection mode and Password Protection
mode. Indicator bits DQ6 and DQ7 are used to indicate the factory-locked and customer locked status of the
part.
The system accesses the Secured Silicon Sector through a command sequence (see the Enter/Exit Secured
Silicon Sector Command Sequence on page 60). 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 the boot sectors. This mode of operation continues until the system issues the Exit Secured
Silicon Sector command sequence, or until power is removed from the device. Once the Enter SecSi Sector
Command sequence has been entered, the standard array cannot be accessed until the Exit SecSi Sector
command has been entered or the device has been reset. On power-up, or following a hardware reset, the
device reverts to sending commands to the normal address space. Note that the ACC function and unlock
bypass modes are not available when the Secured Silicon Sector is enabled.

Data Sheet
13.6.1 Factory-Locked Area (64 words)
The factory-locked area of the Secured Silicon Sector (000000h-00003Fh) is locked when the part is shipped,
whether or not the area was programmed at the factory. The Secured Silicon Sector Factory-locked Indicator
Bit (DQ7) is permanently set to a “1”. Optional Spansion programming services can program the factory-
locked area with a random ESN, a customer-defined code, or any combination of the two. Because only
Spansion can program and protect the factory-locked area, this method ensures the security of the ESN once
the product is shipped to the field. Contact your local sales office for details on using Spansion’s programming
services. Note that the ACC function and unlock bypass modes are not available when the Secured Silicon
sector is enabled.
13.6.2 Customer-Lockable Area (64 words)
The customer-lockable area of the Secured Silicon Sector (000040h-00007Fh) is shipped unprotected, which
allows the customer to program and optionally lock the area as appropriate for the application. The Secured
Silicon Sector Customer-locked Indicator Bit (DQ6) is shipped as “0” and can be permanently locked to “1” by
issuing the Secured Silicon Protection Bit Program Command. The Secured Silicon Sector can be read any
number of times, but can be programmed and locked only once. Note that the accelerated programming
(ACC) and unlock bypass functions are not available when programming the Secured Silicon Sector.
The Customer-lockable Secured Silicon Sector area can be protected using one of the following procedures:
Write the three-cycle Enter Secured Silicon Sector Region command sequence, and then follow the in-
system sector protect algorithm as shown in Figure 13.1 on page 53, except that RESET# may be at either
VIH or VID. This allows in-system protection of the Secured Silicon Sector Region without raising any device
pin to a high voltage. Note that this method is only applicable to the Secured Silicon Sector.
To verify the protect/unprotect status of the Secured Silicon Sector, follow the algorithm shown in Figure
on page 55.
Once the Secured Silicon Sector is locked and verified, the system must write the Exit Secured Silicon
Sector Region command sequence to return to reading and writing the remainder of the array.
The Secured Silicon Sector lock must be used with caution since, 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.
13.6.3 Secured Silicon Sector Protection Bits
The Secured Silicon Sector Protection Bits prevent programming of the Secured Silicon Sector memory area.
Once set, the Secured Silicon Sector memory area contents are non-modifiable.

Data Sheet
13.7 Hardware Data Protection
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles for programming or erasing provides data protection
against inadvertent writes. In addition, the following hardware data protection measures prevent accidental
erasure or programming, which might otherwise be caused by spurious system level signals during VCC
power-up and power-down transitions, or from system noise.
13.7.1 Low VCC Write Inhibit
When VCC is less than VLKO, the device does not accept any write cycles. This protects data during VCC
power-up and power-down. The command register and all internal program/erase circuits are disabled, and
the device resets to the read mode. Subsequent writes are ignored until VCC is greater than VLKO. The
system must provide the proper signals to the control pins to prevent unintentional writes when VCC is greater
than VLKO.
13.7.2 Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Noise pulses of less than 3 ns (typical) on OE#, CE#, (CE1#, CE2# in PL129J) or WE# do not initiate a write
cycle.
13.7.3 Logical Inhibit
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# = VIL, CE# (CE1# = CE2# in PL129J)= VIH or
WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle, CE# (CE1# / CE2# in PL129J) and WE# must be a logical zero while
OE# is a logical one.
13.7.4 Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# (CE1#, CE2# in PL129J) = 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.
14. Common Flash Memory Interface (CFI)
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 device-independent, JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and
backward-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 Table 14.1 on page 57 to Table 14.4 on page 58. To terminate reading CFI data, the system must
write the reset command. The CFI Query mode is not accessible when the device is executing an Embedded
Program or embedded Erase algorithm.
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 Table 14.1 to
Table 14.4. The system must write the reset command to return the device to reading array data.
For further information, please refer to the CFI Specification and CFI Publication 100. Contact your local sales
office for copies of these documents.

15. Command Definitions
Writing specific address and data commands or sequences into the command register initiates device
operations. Table 15.1 on page 66 defines the valid register command sequences. Writing incorrect
address and data values or writing them in the improper sequence may place the device in an unknown
state. A reset command is then required to return the device to reading array data.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE# or CE# (CE1# / CE2# in PL129J), whichever happens
later. All data is latched on the rising edge of WE# or CE# (CE1# / CE2# in PL129J), whichever happens first.
Refer to AC Characteristic on page 76 for timing diagrams.
15.1 Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data after device power-up. No commands are required to
retrieve data. Each bank is ready to read array data after completing an Embedded Program or Embedded
Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command, the corresponding bank enters the erase-suspend-
read mode, after which the system can read data from any non-erase-suspended sector within the same
bank. The system can read array data using the standard read timing, except that if it reads at an address
within erase-suspended sectors, the device outputs status data. After completing a programming operation in
the Erase Suspend mode, the system may once again read array data with the same exception. See Erase
Suspend/Erase Resume Commands on page 64 for more information.
After the device accepts a Program Suspend command, the corresponding bank enters the program-
suspend-read mode, after which the system can read data from any non-program-suspended sector within
the same bank. See Program Suspend/Program Resume Commands on page 65 for more information.
The system must issue the reset command to return a bank to the read (or erase-suspend-read) mode if DQ5
goes high during an active program or erase operation, or if the bank is in the autoselect mode. See the next
section, Reset Command on page 60, for more information.
See also Requirements for Reading Array Data on page 23 for more information. The table AC Characteristic
on page 76 provides the read parameters, and Figure 16.2 on page 70 shows the timing diagram.

15.2 Reset Command
Writing the reset command resets the banks to the read or erase-suspend-read mode. Address bits are don’t
cares for this command.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the bank to which the system was writing to the read mode. Once erasure begins,
however, the device ignores reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in a program command sequence before
programming begins. This resets the bank to which the system was writing to the read mode. If the program
command sequence is written to a bank that is in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset command
returns that bank to the erase-suspend-read mode. Once programming begins, however, the device ignores
reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an autoselect command sequence.
Once in the autoselect mode, the reset command must be written to return to the read mode. If a bank
entered the autoselect mode while in the Erase Suspend mode, writing the reset command returns that bank
to the erase-suspend-read mode.
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation, writing the reset command returns the banks to the
read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if that bank was in Erase Suspend and program-suspend-read
mode if that bank was in Program Suspend).
15.3 Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host system to access the manufacturer and device codes,
and determine whether or not a sector is protected. The autoselect command sequence may be written to an
address within a bank 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 in the other bank.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by first writing two unlock cycles. This is followed by a third
write cycle that contains the bank address and the autoselect command. The bank then enters the autoselect
mode. The system may read any number of autoselect codes without reinitiating the command sequence.
Table 15.1 on page 66 shows the address and data requirements. To determine sector protection
information, the system must write to the appropriate bank address (BA) and sector address (SA). Table 10.4
on page 24 shows the address range and bank number associated with each sector.
The system must write the reset command to return to the read mode (or erase-suspend-read mode if the
bank was previously in Erase Suspend).
15.4 Enter/Exit Secured Silicon Sector Command Sequence
The Secured Silicon Sector region provides a secured data area containing a random, eight word electronic
serial number (ESN). 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. The Exit
Secured Silicon Sector command sequence returns the device to normal operation. The Secured Silicon
Sector is not accessible when the device is executing an Embedded Program or embedded Erase algorithm.
Table 15.1 on page 66 shows the address and data requirements for both command sequences. See also
Secured Silicon Sector Flash Memory Region on page 54 for further information. Note that the ACC function
and unlock bypass modes are not available when the Secured Silicon Sector is enabled.
April 18, 2013 S29PL-J_00_A16 S29PL-J 61
Data Sheet
15.5 Word Program Command Sequence
Programming is a four-bus-cycle operation. The program command sequence is initiated by writing two
unlock write cycles, followed by the program set-up command. The program address and data are written
next, which in turn initiate the Embedded Program algorithm. The system is not required to provide further
controls or timings. The device automatically provides internally generated program pulses and verifies the
programmed cell margin. Table 15.1 on page 66 shows the address and data requirements for the program
command sequence. Note that the Secured Silicon Sector, autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable
when a [program/erase] operation is in progress.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, that bank then returns to the read mode and addresses
are no longer latched. The system can determine the status of the program operation by using DQ7, DQ6, or
RY/BY#. Refer to Write Operation Status on page 68 for information on these status bits.
Any commands written to the device during the Embedded Program Algorithm are ignored. Note that a
hardware reset immediately terminates the program operation. The program command sequence should be
reinitiated once that bank has returned to the read mode, to ensure data integrity. Note that the Secured
Silicon Sector, autoselect and CFI functions are unavailable when the Secured Silicon Sector is enabled.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed from
“0” back to a “1.Attempting to do so may cause that bank to set DQ5 = 1, or cause the DQ7 and DQ6
status bits to indicate the operation was successful. However, a succeeding read will show that the data is still
“0.” Only erase operations can convert a “0” to a “1.”
15.5.1 Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program data to a bank faster than using the standard
program command sequence. The unlock bypass command sequence is initiated by first writing two unlock
cycles. This is followed by a third write cycle containing the unlock bypass command, 20h. That bank then
enters the unlock bypass mode. A two-cycle unlock bypass program command sequence is all that is
required to program in this mode. The first cycle in this sequence contains the unlock bypass program
command, A0h; the second cycle contains the 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
command sequence, resulting in faster total programming time. Table 15.1 on page 66 shows the
requirements for the command sequence.
During the unlock bypass mode, only the Unlock Bypass Program and Unlock Bypass Reset commands are
valid. To exit the unlock bypass mode, the system must issue the two-cycle unlock bypass reset command
sequence. (See Table 15.2 on page 67)
The device offers accelerated program operations through the WP#/ACC pin. When the system asserts VHH
on the WP#/ACC pin, the device automatically enters the Unlock Bypass mode. The system may then write
the two-cycle Unlock Bypass program command sequence. The device uses the higher voltage on the WP#/
ACC pin to accelerate the operation. Note that the WP#/ACC pin must not be at VHH any operation other than
accelerated programming, or device damage may result. In addition, the WP#/ACC pin must not be left
floating or unconnected; inconsistent behavior of the device may result.
Figure 15.1 on page 62 illustrates the algorithm for the program operation. Refer to the table Erase/Program
Operations on page 80 for parameters, and Figure 20.6 on page 81 for timing diagrams.

See Table 15.1 on page 66 for program command sequence.
15.6 Chip Erase Command Sequence
Chip erase is a six bus cycle operation. The chip erase command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock
cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two additional unlock write cycles are then followed by the chip erase
command, which in turn invokes the Embedded Erase algorithm. The device does not require the system to
preprogram prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm automatically preprograms and verifies the entire
memory for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase. The system is not required to provide any
controls or timings during these operations. Table 15.1 on page 66 shows the address and data requirements
for the chip erase command sequence.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, that bank returns to the read mode and addresses are no
longer latched. The system can determine the status of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or
RY/BY#. Refer to Write Operation Status on page 68 for information on these status bits.
Any commands written during the chip erase operation are ignored. Note that Secured Silicon Sector,
autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a [program/erase] operation is in progress. However,
note that a hardware reset immediately terminates the erase operation. If that occurs, the chip erase
command sequence should be reinitiated once that bank has returned to reading array data, to ensure data
integrity.
Figure 15.2 on page 63 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to the tables in Erase/Program
Operations on page 80 for parameters, and Figure 20.8 on page 82 for timing diagrams.

15.7 Sector Erase Command Sequence
Sector erase is a six bus cycle operation. The sector erase command sequence is initiated by writing two
unlock cycles, followed by a set-up command. Two additional unlock cycles are written, and are then followed
by the address of the sector to be erased, and the sector erase command. Table 15.1 on page 66 shows the
address and data requirements for the sector erase command sequence.
The device does not require the system to preprogram prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm
automatically programs and verifies the entire memory for an all zero data pattern prior to electrical erase.
The system is not required to provide any controls or timings during these operations.
After the command sequence is written, a sector erase time-out of 50 µs occurs. During the time-out period,
additional sector addresses and sector erase commands may be written. Loading the sector erase buffer may
be done in any sequence, and the number of sectors may be from one sector to all sectors. The time between
these additional cycles must be less than 50 µs, otherwise erasure may begin. Any sector erase address and
command following the exceeded time-out may or may not be accepted. It is recommended that processor
interrupts be disabled during this time to ensure all commands are accepted. The interrupts can be
re-enabled after the last Sector Erase command is written. If any command other than 30h, B0h, F0h is
input during the time-out period, the normal operation will not be guaranteed. The system must rewrite
the command sequence and any additional addresses and commands. Note that Secured Silicon Sector,
autoselect, and CFI functions are unavailable when a [program/erase] operation is in progress.
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sector erase timer has timed out (See the section on DQ3:
Sector Erase Timer). 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 bank returns to reading array data and addresses are
no longer latched. Note that while the Embedded Erase operation is in progress, the system can read data
from the non-erasing bank. The system can determine the status of the erase operation by reading DQ7,
DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY# in the erasing bank. Refer to Write Operation Status on page 68 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 bank has returned to reading array data,
to ensure data integrity.
Figure 7.2 on page 18 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to the tables in Erase/Program
Operations on page 80 for parameters, and Figure 20.8 on page 82 for timing diagrams.

15.8 Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands
The Erase Suspend command, B0h, 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 bank address is required when writing
this command. This command is valid only during the sector erase operation, including the 50 µs time-out
period during the sector erase command sequence. The Erase Suspend command is ignored if written during
the chip erase operation or Embedded Program algorithm.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during the sector erase operation, the device requires a
maximum of 35 µs to suspend the erase operation. However, when the Erase Suspend command is written
during the sector erase time-out, the device immediately terminates the time-out period and suspends the
erase operation. Addresses are “don’t-cares” when writing the Erase suspend command.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the bank 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 Write Operation Status on page 68 for information on these
status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete, the bank returns to the erase-suspend-read mode.
The system can determine the status of the program operation using the DQ7 or DQ6 status bits, just as in
the standard Word Program operation. Refer to Write Operation Status on page 68 for more information.
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also issue the autoselect command sequence. The device
allows reading autoselect codes even at addresses within erasing sectors, since the codes are not stored in
the memory array. When the device exits the autoselect mode, the device reverts to the Erase Suspend
mode, and is ready for another valid operation. Refer to Table 10.9, Secured Silicon Sector Addresses
on page 43 and Autoselect Command Sequence on page 60 for details.
To resume the sector erase operation, the system must write the Erase Resume command (address bits are
don’t care). The bank address of the erase-suspended bank is required 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.
If the Persistent Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit is verified as programmed without margin, the Persistent
Sector Protection Mode Locking Bit Program Command should be reissued to improve program margin. If the
Secured Silicon Sector Protection Bit is verified as programmed without margin, the Secured Silicon Sector
Protection Bit Program Command should be reissued to improve program margin. µµAfter programming a
PPB, two additional cycles are needed to determine whether the PPB has been programmed with margin. If
the PPB has been programmed without margin, the program command should be reissued to improve the
program margin. Also note that the total number of PPB program/erase cycles is limited to 100 cycles.
Cycling the PPBs beyond 100 cycles is not guaranteed.
After erasing the PPBs, two additional cycles are needed to determine whether the PPB has been erased
with margin. If the PPBs has been erased without margin, the erase command should be reissued to improve
the program margin. The programming of either the PPB or DYB for a given sector or sector group can be
verified by writing a Sector Protection Status command to the device.
Note that there is no single command to independently verify the programming of a DYB for a given sector
group.

Data Sheet
15.9 Program Suspend/Program Resume Commands
The Program Suspend command allows the system to interrupt an embedded 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 tPSL (program suspend latency)
and updates the 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 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
Command Sequence on page 60 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 DQ7
or DQ6 status bits, just as in the standard program operation. See Write Operation Status on page 68 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.

16. Once the Secured Silicon Sector Entry Command sequence has been entered, the standard array cannot be accessed until the Exit

16. Write Operation Status
The device provides several bits to determine the status of a program or erase operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5,
DQ6, and DQ7. Table 16.1 on page 72 and the following subsections describe the function of these bits. DQ7
and DQ6 each offer a method for determining whether a program or erase operation is complete or in
progress. The device also provides a hardware-based output signal, RY/BY#, to determine whether an
Embedded Program or Erase operation is in progress or has been completed.
16.1 DQ7: 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 a bank is in Erase Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising
edge of the final WE# pulse in the command sequence.
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 for approximately 1 µs, then that bank 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 bank 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 400 µs, then the bank returns to the read mode. If not all selected sectors
are protected, the Embedded Erase algorithm erases the unprotected sectors, and ignores the selected
sectors that are protected. However, if the system reads DQ7 at an address within a protected sector, the
status may not be valid.
When the system detects DQ7 has changed from the complement to true data, it can read valid data at
DQ15–DQ0 on the following read cycles. Just prior to the completion of an Embedded Program or Erase
operation, DQ7 may change asynchronously with DQ15–DQ0 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted low.
That is, the device may change from providing status information to valid data on DQ7. Depending on when
the system samples the DQ7 output, it may read the status or valid data. Even if the device has completed
the program or erase operation and DQ7 has valid data, the data outputs on DQ15–DQ0 may be still invalid.
Valid data on DQ15–DQ0 will appear on successive read cycles.
Table 16.1 on page 72 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7. Figure 16.1 on page 69 shows the Data#
Polling algorithm. Figure 20.10 on page 83 shows the Data# Polling timing diagram.
April 18, 2013 S29PL-J_00_A16 S29PL-J 69
Data Sheet
Figure 16.1 Data# Polling Algorithm
Notes
1. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector erase operation, a valid address is any sector address within the sector being
erased. During chip erase, a valid address is any non-protected sector address.
2. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = “1” because DQ7 may change simultaneously with DQ5.
16.2 RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin which 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 VCC.
If the output is low (Busy), the device is actively erasing or programming. (This includes programming in the
Erase Suspend mode.) If the output is high (Ready), the device is in the read mode, the standby mode, or one
of the banks is in the erase-suspend-read mode.
Table 16.1 on page 72 shows the outputs for RY/BY#.
16.3 DQ6: 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 cause
DQ6 to toggle. The system may use either OE# or CE# to control the read cycles. 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 400 µs, 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 the DQ7: Data# Polling on page 68).
If a program address falls within a protected sector, DQ6 toggles for approximately 1 µs after the program
command sequence is written, then returns to reading array data.
DQ6 also toggles during the erase-suspend-program mode, and stops toggling once the Embedded Program
algorithm is complete.
Table 16.1 on page 72 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on DQ6. Figure 16.2 on page 70 shows the toggle
bit algorithm. Figure 20.11 on page 84 in shows the toggle bit timing diagrams. Figure 20.12 on page 84
shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the DQ2: Toggle Bit II on page 71.

Note:
The system should recheck the toggle bit even if DQ5 = “1” because the toggle bit may stop toggling as DQ5 changes to “1.” See the DQ6:

16.4 DQ2: 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.
(The system may use either OE# or CE# (CE1# / CE2# for PL129J) to control the read cycles.) But DQ2
cannot distinguish whether the sector is actively erasing or is erase-suspended. DQ6, by comparison,
indicates whether the device is actively erasing, or is in Erase Suspend, but cannot distinguish which sectors
are selected for erasure. Thus, both status bits are required for sector and mode information. Refer to
Table 16.1 on page 72 to compare outputs for DQ2 and DQ6.
Figure 16.2 on page 70 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart form, and the DQ2: Toggle Bit II
on page 71 explains the algorithm. See also the DQ6: Toggle Bit I on page 69. Figure 20.11 on page 84
shows the toggle bit timing diagram. Figure 20.12 on page 84 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6
in graphical form.
16.5 Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 16.2 on page 70 for the following discussion. 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 erase operation. The system can read array data on DQ7–DQ0 on
the following read cycle.
However, if after the initial two read cycles, the system determines that the toggle bit is still toggling, the
system also should note whether the value of DQ5 is high (see the section on DQ5). If it is, the system should
then determine again whether the toggle bit is toggling, since the toggle bit may have stopped toggling just as
DQ5 went high. If the toggle bit is no longer toggling, the device has successfully completed the program or
erase operation. If it is still toggling, the device did not completed the operation successfully, and the system
must write the reset command to return to 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 (top of Figure 16.2 on page 70).
16.6 DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has exceeded a specified internal pulse count limit. Under
these conditions DQ5 produces a “1,” indicating that the program or erase cycle was not successfully
completed.
The device may 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 halts the operation, and when the timing limit has been exceeded, DQ5 produces a “1.”
Under both these conditions, the system must write the reset command to return to the read mode (or to the
erase-suspend-read mode if a bank was previously in the erase-suspend-program mode).

16.7 DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
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.” See also the Sector Erase Command
Sequence on page 63.
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 will accept 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 subsequent sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the last
command might not have been accepted.
Table 16.1 shows the status of DQ3 relative to the other status bits.
Notes:
1. DQ5 switches to ‘1’ when an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase operation has exceeded the maximum timing limits. Refer to DQ5:
Exceeded Timing Limits on page 71 for more information.
2. DQ7 and DQ2 require a valid address when reading status information. Refer to the appropriate subsection for further details.
3. When reading write operation status bits, the system must always provide the bank address where the Embedded Algorithm is in
progress. The device outputs array data if the system addresses a non-busy bank.

17. Absolute Maximum Ratings
Notes:
1. Minimum DC voltage on input or I/O pins is –0.5 V. During voltage transitions, input or I/O pins may overshoot VSS to –2.0 V for periods of
up to 20 ns. Maximum DC voltage on input or I/O pins is VCC +0.5 V. During voltage transitions, input or I/O pins may overshoot to VCC
+2.0 V for periods up to 20 ns. See Figure 17.1 on page 73.
2. Minimum DC input voltage on pins A9, OE#, RESET#, and WP#/ACC is –0.5 V. During voltage transitions, A9, OE#, WP#/ACC, and
RESET# may overshoot VSS to –2.0 V for periods of up to 20 ns. See Figure 17.1 on page 73. Maximum DC input voltage on pin A9,
OE#, and RESET# is +12.5 V which may overshoot to +14.0 V for periods up to 20 ns. Maximum DC input voltage on WP#/ACC is +9.5 V
which may overshoot to +12.0 V for periods up to 20 ns.
3. No more than one output may be shorted to ground at a time. Duration of the short circuit should not be greater than one second.
4. Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only;
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this data sheet is
not implied. Exposure of the device to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability

Data Sheet
Note
This parameter is defined for CE1#/CE2# recover time for read/read, program/read, and read/program operations. Program/program operation are not allowed and
only a single program operation is allowed at one time.
Figure 21.4 Timing Diagram for Alternating Between CE1# and CE2# Control
Notes
1. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25°C, 3.0 V VCC, 100,000 cycles. Additionally, programming typicals
assume checkerboard pattern. All values are subject to change.
2. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 2.7 V, 1,000,000 cycles. All values are subject to change.
3. The typical chip programming time is considerably less than the maximum chip programming time listed, since most bytes program faster
than the maximum program times listed.
4. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00h before erasure.
5. System-level overhead is the time required to execute the two- or four-bus-cycle sequence for the program command. See Table 15.1
on page 66 for further information on command definitions.
6. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 100,000 cycles.
