DQ5: Exceeded Timing Limits
DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
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
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 de-
scribed 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 algo-
rithm when it returns to determine the status of the operation (top of
DQ5 indicates whether the program or erase time has exceeded a specified inter-
nal 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 opera-
tion, 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).
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the system may read DQ3 to de-
termine 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
“Sector Erase Command Sequence”
After the sector erase command is written, the system should read the status of
DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit I) to ensure that the device has accepted
the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is “1,” the Embedded Erase
algorithm has begun; all further commands (except Erase Suspend) are ignored
until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is “0,” the device accepts additional
sector erase commands. To ensure the command has been accepted, the system
software should check the status of DQ3 prior to and following each subsequent
sector erase command. If DQ3 is high on the second status check, the last com-
mand might not have been accepted.
Table 14
“DQ5: Exceeded Timing
shows the status of DQ3 relative to the other status bits.
