SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M29F080D is a 8 Mbit (1Mb x8) non-volatile
memory that can be read, erased and repro-
grammed. These operations can be performed us-
ing a single low voltage 5V supply. On power-up
the memory defaults to its Read mode where it can
be read in the same way as a ROM or EPROM.
The memory is divided into 16 uniform blocks of
64Kbytes (see Figure 5, Block Addresses) that
can be erased independently so it is possible to
preserve valid data while old data is erased.
Blocks can be prot ected in groups of 4 to pr event
accidental Program or Erase commands from
modifying the memory. Program and Erase com-
mands are written to the Command Interface of
the memory. An on-chip Program/Erase Controller
simplifies the process of programming or erasing
the memory by taking care of all of the special op-
erations that are required to update the memory
contents. The end of a program or erase operation
can be detected and any error conditions identi-
fied. The command set required to control the
memory is consistent with JEDEC standards.
Chip Enable, Output Enable and Write Enable sig-
nals control the bus operation of the memory.
They allow simple connection to most micropro-
cessors, often without additional logic.
The memory is offered in TSOP40 (10 x 20mm) and
SO44 pac k age s. Access times of 55, 70 and 90ns
are available.
In order to meet environmental requirements, ST
offers the M29F080D in ECOPACK® packages .
ECOPACK packages are Lead-free. The category
of second Level Interconnect is marked on the
package and on the inner box label, in compliance
wit h JEDEC S tandar d JESD 97. The m aximum rat-
ings related to soldering conditions are also
marked on the inner box label.
ECOPACK is an ST trademark. ECOPACK speci-
fications are available at: www.st.com.
The memory is supplied with all the bits erased
(set to ’1’).

SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS
See Figu re 2, L ogi c Di ag ra m, an d Tab le 1 , Si gn al
Names, for a brief overview of the signals connect-
ed to this device.
Address Inputs (A0-A19). The Address Inputs
select the cells in the memory array to access dur-
ing Bus Read operations. During Bus Write opera-
tions they control the commands sent to the
Command Interface of the internal state machine.
Data Inputs/Outputs (DQ0-DQ7). The Data I/O
outputs the data stored at the selected address
during a Bus Read operation. During Bus Write
operations they represent the commands sent to
the Command Interface of the internal state ma-
chine.
Chip Enable (E). The Chip Enable, E, activates
the memory, allowing Bus Read and Bus Write op-
erations to be performed. When Chip Enable is
High, VIH, all other pins are ignored.
Output Enable (G). The Output Enable, G, con-
trols the Bus Read operation of the memory.
Write Enable (W). The Writ e En a bl e, W, controls
the Bus Write operation of the memory’s Com-
mand Interface.
Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect (RP). The
Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect pin can be
us ed t o ap p ly a Ha r d wa r e R es et t o t he m e mo r y or
to tempora rily un prote ct a ll Bl oc k s that h av e be en
protected.
A Hardware Reset is achieved by holding Reset/
Block Temporary Unprotect Low, VIL, for at least
tPLPX. After Reset/Block Temporary Unprotect
goes High , VIH, the memory will be ready for Bu s
Read and Bus Write operations after tPHEL or
tRHEL, whichever occurs last. See the Ready/Busy
Output section, Table 13 and Figure 13, Reset/
Tem porary Unprotec t AC Characteristics for more
details.
Holding RP at VID will temporarily unprotect the
protected Blocks in the memory. Program and
Erase operations on all blocks will be possible.
The transition from VIH to VID must be slower than
tPHPHH.
Ready/Busy Output (RB). The Ready/Busy pin
is an open-drain output that can be used to identify
when the device is performing a Program or Erase
operation. During Program or Erase operations
Ready/Busy is Low, VOL. Ready/Busy is high-im-
pedance during Read mode, Auto Select mode
and Erase Suspend mode.
After a Hardware Reset, Bus Read and Bus Write
operations cannot begin until Ready/Busy be-
comes hi gh -impe dance. See Ta bl e 13 an d Fi gur e
13, Reset/Temporary Unprotect AC Characteris-
tics.
The use of an open-drain output allows the Ready/
Busy pins from several memories to be connected
to a single pull-up resistor. A Low will then indicate
that one, or more, of the memories is busy.
VCC Supply Voltage (5V). VCC provides the
power supply for all operations (Read, Program
and Erase).
The Command Interface is disabled when the VCC
Supply Voltage is less than the Lockout Voltage,
VLKO. This prevents Bus Write operations from ac-
cidentally damaging the data during power up,
power down and power surges. If the Program/
Erase Controller is programming or erasing during
this time then the operation aborts and the memo-
ry contents being altered will be invalid.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be connected between
the VCC Supply Voltage pin and the VSS Ground
pin to decouple the current surges from the power
supply, see Figure 10, AC Measurement Load Cir-
cuit. The PCB track widths must be sufficient to
carry the currents required during program and
erase operations, ICC3.
VSS Ground. VSS is the reference for all voltage
measurements.

BUS OPERATIONS
There are five standard bus operations that control
the device. Thes e are Bus Read, Bus Writ e, Out-
put Disable, Standby and Automatic Standby. See
Tables 2, Bus Operations, for a summary. Typical-
ly glitches of less than 5ns on Chip Enable or Write
Enable ar e ignored by the m emory an d do not af-
fect bus operations.
Bus Read. Bus Read operations read from the
memory cells, or specific registers in the Com-
mand Interface. A valid Bus Read operation in-
volves setting the desired address on the Address
Inputs, ap plyi ng a Low signal , V IL, to Ch ip E nab le
and Output Enable and keeping Write Enable
High, VIH. The Data Inputs /Outp uts wil l outpu t the
value, see Figure 10, Read Mode AC Waveforms,
and Table 10, Read AC Characteristics, for details
of when the output becomes valid.
Bus Write. Bus Write operations write to the
Command Interface. A valid Bus Write operation
begins by setting the desired address on the Ad-
dress Inputs. The Address Inputs are latched by
the Command Interface on the falling edge of Chip
Enable or Write Enable, whichever occurs last.
The Data Inpu ts/Ou tputs are l atched by the Com -
mand Interfa ce on the rising ed ge of Chip Enab le
or Write Enable, whichever occurs first. Output En-
able must rema in High , VIH, duri ng the whol e Bu s
Write operation. See Figures 11 and 12, Write AC
Waveforms, and Tables 11 and 12, Write AC
Characteristics, for details of the timing require-
ments.
Output Disable. The Data Inputs/Outputs are in
the high impedance state when Output Enable is
High, VIH.
Standby. When Chip Enable is High, VIH, the
memory enters Standby mode and the Data In-
puts/Outputs pins are placed in the high-imped-
ance state. To reduce the Supply Current to the
Standby Supply Current, ICC2, Chip Enable should
be held within VCC ± 0.2V. For the Standby current
level see Table 9, DC Characteristics.
During program or erase operations the memory
will continue to use the Program/Erase Supply
Current, ICC3, for Program or Erase operations un-
til the operation completes.
Automatic Standby. If CMOS levels (VCC ± 0.2V)
are used to drive the bus and the bus is inactive for
300ns or more the memory enters Automatic
Standby where the internal Supply Current is re-
duced to the Standby Supply Current, ICC2. The
Data Inputs/Outputs will still output data if a Bus
Read operation is in progress.
Special Bus Operations
Additional bus operations can be performed to
read the Electronic Signature and also to apply
and remove Block Protection. These bus opera-
tions are intende d for use by program ming eq uip-
ment and are not usually used in applications.
They require VID to be applied to some pins.
Electronic Signature. The memory has two
codes, the manufacturer code and the device
code, that can be read to identify the memory.
These cod es can b e read b y apply ing the s ignals
listed in Tables 2, Bus Operations.
Block Protection and Blocks Unprotection.
Blocks can be protected in groups of 4 against ac-
cidental Program or Erase. See Appendix A, Table
15, Block Addresses, for details of which blocks
must be p rotected togeth er a s a g roup. Pr otec ted
blocks can be unprotected to allow data to be
changed.
There are two methods available for protecting
and unprotecting the blocks, one for use on pro-
gramming equipment and the other for in-system
use. Blo ck P ro tect a nd Chi p Un pr otect operation s
are described in Appendix C.

COMMAND INTERFACE
All Bus Write operations to the memory are inter-
preted by the Command Interface. Commands
consist of one or more sequential Bus Write oper-
ations. Failure to observe a valid sequence of Bus
Write operations will result in the memory return-
ing to Read mode. The long command sequences
are imposed to maximize data security.
Refer to Table 3, Commands, in conjunction with
the following text descriptions.
Read/Reset Command. The Read/Reset com-
mand returns the memory to its Read mode where
it behaves like a ROM or EPROM, unless other-
wise stated . It also resets the error s in the Status
Register. Either one or three Bus Write operations
can be used to issue the Read/Reset command.
The Read/Reset Command can be issued, be-
tween Bus Write cycles before the start of a pro-
gram or erase operation, to return the device to
read mod e. On ce th e progr am or erase oper ation
has started the Read/Reset command is no longer
accepted. The Read/Reset command will not
abort an Erase operation when issued while in
Erase Suspend.
Auto Select Command. The Auto Select com-
mand is u sed to read the M anufac turer Co de, the
Device Code and the Block Protection Status.
Three consecutive Bus Write operations are re-
quired to issue the Auto Select command. Once
the Auto Select command is issued the memory
remains in Auto Select mode until a Read/Reset
command is issued. Read CFI Query and Read/
Reset commands are accepted in Auto Select
mode, all other co mma nds are ignor ed.
From the Auto Select mode the Manufacturer
Code can be read using a Bus Read operation
with A0 = VIL and A1 = VIL. The other address bits
may be set to either VIL or VIH. The Manufacturer
Code for STMicroelectronics is 20h.
The Device Code can be read using a Bus Re ad
operation with A0 = VIH and A1 = VIL. The other
address bits may be set to either VIL or VIH. The
Device Code for the M29F080D F1h.
The Block Protection Status of each block can be
read using a Bus Read operation with A0 = VIL,
A1 = VIH, and A12-A19 specifying the address of
the block. The other address bits may be set to ei-
ther VIL or VIH. If the addressed block is protected
then 01h is output on Data Inputs/Outputs DQ0-
DQ7, otherwise 00h is o utput.
Program Command. The Program command
can be used to program a value to one address in
the memory array at a time. The command re-
quires four Bus Write operations, the final write op-
eration latches the address and data in the internal
state machine and starts the Program/Erase Con-
troller.
If the address falls in a protected block then the
Program command is ignored, the data remains
unchanged. The Status Register is never read and
no error condition is given.
During the p rogram op eration the memor y will ig-
nore all com mands . It is no t possib le to iss ue any
command to abort or pause the operation. Typical
program times are given in Table 4. Bus Read op-
erations during the program operation will output
the Status Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs.
See the section on the Status Register for more
details.
After the program operation has completed the
memory will return to the Read mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Regis-
ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
set the error condition and return to Read mode.
Note that the Program command cannot change a
bit set at ’0’ back to ’1’. One of the Erase Com-
mands must be used to set all the bits in a block or
in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.
Unlock Bypass Command. The Unlock Bypass
command is used in conjunction with the Unlock
Bypass Program command to program the memo-
ry. When the cycle time to the device is long (as
with some EPROM programmers) considerable
time saving can be made by using these com-
mands. Three Bus Write operations are required
to issue the Unlock Bypass command.
Once the Unlock Bypass command has been is-
sued the memory will only accept the Unlock By-
pass Program command and the Unlock Bypass
Reset command. The memory can be read as if in
Read mode.
Unlock Bypass Program Command. The Un-
lock Bypass Program command can be used to
program one address in the memory array at a
time. The com mand requir es two Bus Write oper -
ations, the final write operation latches the ad-
dress and data in the internal state machine and
starts the Program/Erase Controller.
The Program operation using the Unlock Bypass
Program command behaves identically to the Pro-
gram operation using the Program command. A
protected block cannot be pr og rammed; the oper-
ation cannot be aborted and the Status Register is
read. Errors must be reset using the Read/Reset
comma nd, which leaves the devi ce in Unlock By-
pass Mode. See the Program command for details
on the behavior.
Unlock Bypass Reset Command. The Unlock
Bypass Reset co mmand ca n be use d to retu rn to
Read/Reset mode from Unlock Bypass Mode.
Two Bus Write operations are required to issue the
Unlock Bypass Reset command. Read/Reset
11/37
M29F080D
command does not exit from Unlock Bypass
Mode.
Chip Erase Command. The Chip Erase com-
mand can be used to erase the entire chip. Six Bus
Write operations are required to issue the Chip
Erase Command and start the Program/Erase
Controller.
If any blocks are protected then these are ignored
and all the other blocks are erased. If all of the
blocks are protected the Chip Erase operation ap-
pears to start but will terminate within about 100µs,
leaving the da ta unc hanged . No err or con dition is
given when protected blocks are ignored.
During the erase operation the memory will ignore
all comman ds , inc lud in g the Eras e S usp end com -
mand. I t is not po ssible to iss ue any command to
abort the operation. Typical chip erase times are
given in Table 4. All Bus Read operations during
the Chip Erase operation will output the Status
Register on the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the sec-
tion on the Status Register for more details.
After the C hip Erase o peration has c om ple ted the
memory will return to the Read Mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Regis-
ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
set the error condition and return to Read Mode.
The Chip Erase Command sets all of the bits in un-
protected blocks of the memory to ’1’. All previous
data is lost.
Block Erase Command. The Block Erase com-
mand can be used to erase a list of one or more
blocks. Six Bus Write operations are required to
select the first block in the list. Each additional
block in the list can be selected by repeating the
sixth Bus Write operation using the address of the
additiona l blo ck . The Bl oc k Er ase op er ati on st ar ts
the Program/Erase Controller about 50µs after the
last Bus Write operation. Once the Program/Erase
Controller starts it is not possible to select any
more blocks. Each additional block must therefore
be selected within 50µs of the last block. The 50µs
timer restarts when an additional block is selected.
The Status Register can be read after the sixth
Bus Write operation. See the Status Register sec-
tion for details on how to identify if the Program/
Erase Controller has started the Block Erase oper-
ation.
If any selected blocks are protected then these are
ignored and all the other selected blocks are
erased. If all of the selected blocks are protected
the Block Erase operation appears to start but will
terminate within about 100µs, leaving the data un-
changed. No error condition is given when protect-
ed blocks are ignored.
During the Bl ock Er ase o per at ion the memory will
ignore all commands except the Erase Suspend
comma nd. Typical block eras e times a re given in
Table 4. All Bus Read operations during the Block
Erase operation will output the Status Register on
the Data Inputs/Outputs. See the section on the
Status Register for more details.
After the Block Erase operation has completed the
memory will return to the Read Mode, unless an
error has occurred. When an error occurs the
memory will continue to output the Status Regis-
ter. A Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
set the error condition and return to Read mode.
The Block Erase Command sets all of the bits in
the unprotected selected blocks to ’1’. All previous
data in the selected blocks is lost.
Erase Suspe nd Co mmand . The Er as e S u sp en d
Command may be used to tempor arily suspend a
Block Erase operation and return the memory to
Read mode. The command requires one Bus
Write operation.
The Progra m/Erase Controlle r will suspen d with in
15µs of the Erase Suspend Command being is-
sued. Once the Program/Erase Controller has
stopped the memory will be set to Read mode and
the Erase will be suspended. If the Erase Suspend
command is issued during the period when the
memory is waiting for an additional block (before
the Program/Erase Controller starts) then the
Erase is su spended imme di atel y and wil l sta rt im -
mediately when the Erase Resume Command is
issued. It is not possible to select any further
blocks to erase after the Erase Resume.
M29F080D
12/37
During Erase Suspend it is possible to Read and
Program cells in blocks that are not being erased;
both Read and Program operations behave as
normal on these b locks. I f any attempt is mad e to
program in a protected bl ock or in the s uspended
block then the Program command is ignored and
the data remains unchanged. The Status Register
is not r ead and no error condit ion is given. Read -
ing from blocks that are being erased will output
the Status Register.
It is also possible to issue the Auto Select, Read
CFI Query and Unlock Bypass comman ds during
an Erase Suspend. The Read/Reset command
must be issued to return the device to Read Array
mode before the Resume command will be ac-
cepted.
Erase Resume Command. The Erase Resume
command must be used to restart the Program/
Erase Controller after an Erase Suspend. The de-
vice must be in Read Array mode before the Re-
sume command will be accepted. An erase can be
suspended and resumed more than once.
Read CFI Query Command. The Read CFI
Query Command is used to read data from the
Com mon Fl ash Inte rface (CFI ) Memo ry Ar ea. Th is
comma nd is val id when the devi ce is in the Re ad
Array mode, or when the device is in Autoselected
mode.
One Bus Write cycle is required to issue the Read
CFI Query Command. Once the command is is-
sued subs equent Bus Read operatio ns read fr om
the Common Flash Interface Memory Area.
The Read/Reset command must be issued to re-
turn the device to the previous mode (the Read Ar-
ray mode or Autoselected mode). A second Read/
Reset com mand wo uld be needed if the d evice i s
to be put in the Read Array mode from Autoselect-
ed mode.
See Appendix B, Tables 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21
for details on the information contained in the
Common Flash Interface (CFI) memory area.
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect Com-
mands. Groups of blocks can be protected
against ac ciden tal Pro gram or Er ase. T he Pro t ec-
tion Groups are shown in Appendix A, Table 15.
The whole chip can be unprotected to allow the
data inside the blocks to be changed.
Block Protect and Chip Unprotect operations are
described in Appendix C.

STATUS REGISTER
Bus Read operations from any address always
read the Status Register during Program and
Erase operations. It is also read during Erase Sus-
pend when an address within a block being erased
is accessed.
The bits in the S t atu s R egi st er ar e s umm ariz ed in
Table 5, Status Register Bits.
Data Polling Bit (DQ7). The Data P ollin g Bit can
be used to identify whether the Program/Erase
Controller has successfully completed its opera-
tion or if it has responded to an Erase Suspend.
The Data Polling Bit is output on DQ7 when the
Status Register is read.
During Program operations the Data Polling Bit
outputs the complement of the bit being pro-
grammed to DQ7. After successful completion of
the Program operation the memory returns to
Read mode and Bus Read operations from the ad-
dress just programmed output DQ7, not its com-
plement.
During Erase operations the Data Polling Bit out-
puts ’0’, the complement of the erased state of
DQ7. Afte r succe ssfu l com pleti on o f th e Era se op-
eration the memory returns to Read Mode.
In Erase Suspend mode the Data Polling Bit will
output a ’1’ during a Bus Rea d operation within a
block being erased. The Data Polling Bit will
change from a ’0’ to a ’1’ when the Program/Erase
Controller has suspended the Erase operation.
Figure 6, Data Polling Flowchart, gives an exam-
ple of how to use the Dat a Po lli ng Bit . A Va li d Ad -
dress is the address being programmed or an
address within the block being erased.
Toggle Bit (DQ6). The Toggle Bit can be used to
identify whether the Program/Erase Controller has
successfully completed its operation or if it has re-
sponded to an Erase Suspend. The Toggle Bit is
output on DQ6 when the Status Register is read.
During Prog ram a nd Eras e oper ations the Togg le
Bit change s from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’ 0’, etc. , with suc ces-
sive Bus Read operations at any address. After
successful completion of the operation the memo-
ry returns to Read mode.
During Erase Suspend mode the Toggle Bit will
output when addressing a cell within a block being
erased. The Toggle Bit will stop toggling when the
Program/Erase Controller has suspended the
Erase operation.
If any attemp t is mad e to e ra se a protec te d bl ock,
the operati on is aborted, n o error is signal led and
DQ6 toggles for approximately 100µs. If any at-
tempt is made to program a protected block or a
suspende d block, the opera tion is ab orted, no er -
ror is signalled and DQ6 toggles for approximately
1µs.
Figure 7, Data Toggl e Flowchart, gives an ex am-
ple of how to use the Data Toggle Bit.
Error Bit (DQ5). The Error Bit can be used to
identify errors detected by the Program/Erase
Controller. The Error Bit is set to ’1’ when a Pro-
gram, Block Erase or Chip Erase operation fails to
write the correct data to the memory. If the Error
Bit is set a Read/Res et comm and mus t be issu ed
before other commands are issued. The Error bit
is output on DQ5 when the Status Register is read.
Note that the Program command cannot change a
bit set to ’0’ back to ’1’ and attempting to do so will
set DQ5 to ‘1’. A Bus Read operation to that ad-
dress w il l show the bit is s ti ll ‘0’. One of the Erase
commands must be used to set all the bits in a
block or in the whole memory from ’0’ to ’1’.
Erase Ti m er B it (D Q3). The Eras e Timer Bit can
be used to identify the start of Program/Erase
Controller operation during a Block Erase com-
mand. Once the Program/Erase Controller starts
erasing the Erase Timer Bit is set to ’1’. Before the
Program/Erase Controller starts the Erase Timer
Bit is s et to ’0’ a nd additiona l block s to be eras ed
may be written to the Command Interface. The
Erase Timer Bit is output on DQ3 when the Status
Register is read.
Alternative Toggle Bit (DQ2). The Alternative
Toggle Bit can be used to monitor the Program/
Erase con troller d uring Erase o perations. T he Al-
ternative Toggle Bit is output on DQ2 when the
Status Register is read.
During Chip Erase and Block Erase operations the
Toggle Bit changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc., with
successive Bus Read operations from addresses
within the bl ocks being eras ed. A protected bl ock
is treated the same as a block not being erased.
Once the operation completes the memory returns
to Read mode.
During Erase Suspend the Alternative Toggle Bit
changes from ’0’ to ’1’ to ’0’, etc. with successive
Bus Read operations from addresses within the
blocks be ing erased . Bus Read ope rations to ad -
dresses wi thi n b lock s not b eing e ra se d will out put
the memory cell data as if in Read mode.
After an E r ase o peration th at ca us es th e Er r or B it
to be set the Alternative Toggle Bit can be used to
identify which block or blocks have caused the er-
ror. The Alternative Toggle Bit changes from ’0’ to
’1’ to ’0’, etc. with successive Bus Read Opera-
tions from addresses within blocks that have not
erased correctly. The Alternative Toggle Bit does
not change if the addressed block has erased cor-
rectly.

APPENDIX B. COMMON FLASH INTERFACE (CFI)
The Common Flash Interface is a JEDEC ap-
proved, standardized data structure that can be
read from the Flash memory device. It allows a
system so ftware to quer y the device to determine
various electrical and timing parameters, density
informati on and functions su pported by the mem-
ory. The system can interface easily with the de-
vice, en abl ing the software to u pgr ade it self when
necessary.
When the CF I Query Command is issued the de -
vice enters CFI Query mode and the data structure
is read from the memory. Tables 16, 17, 18, 19, 20
and 21 show the addresses used to retrieve the
data.
The CFI data structure also contains a security
area where a 64 bit unique security number is writ-
ten (see Table 21 , Secur ity Code ar ea ). This ar ea
can be accessed only in Read mode by the final
user. It is impo ssible to chang e the sec urity num -
ber after it has bee n written b y ST. Issu e a Read
command to return to Read mode.

APPENDIX C. BLOCK PROTECTION
Block protection can be used to prevent any oper-
ation from modifying the data stored in the memo-
ry. The blocks are protected in groups, refer to
Appendix A, Table 15 for details of the Protec tion
Groups. Once protected, Program and Erase op-
erations wit hin the protected group fail to change
the data.
There are three techniques that can be used to
control Block Protection, these are the Program-
mer technique, the In-System technique and Tem-
porary Unprotection. Temporary Unprotection is
controlled by the Reset/Block Temporary Unpro-
tection pi n, RP ; thi s is d es cribed i n th e Si gna l De -
scriptions section.
To protect the Extended Block issue the Enter Ex-
tended Block command and then use either the
Programmer or In-System technique. Once pro-
tected iss ue the Exit Ext end ed Bl oc k co mma nd to
return to read mode. The Extende d Block protec -
tion is irreversible, once protected the protection
cannot be undone.
Programmer Technique
The Programmer technique uses high (VID) volt-
age levels on some of the bus pins. These cannot
be achieved using a standard microprocessor bus,
therefore the technique is recommended only for
use in Prog ramming Equipment.
To protect a group of blocks follow the flowchart in
Figure 14, Programmer Equipment Block Protect
Flowchart. To unprotect the whole chip it is neces-
sary to protect all of the groups first, then all
groups can be unprotected at the same time. To
unprotect the chip follow Figure 15, Programmer
Equipment Chip Unprotect Flowchart. Table 22,
Programmer Technique Bus Operations, gives a
summary of each operation.
The timing on these flowcharts is critical. Care
should be taken to ensure that, wher e a pause is
specifi ed, it is followe d as closely as possibl e. Do
not abort the procedure before reaching the end.
Chip Unprotect can take several seconds and a
user message should be provided to show that the
operation is progressing.
In-System Technique
The In-System technique requires a high voltage
level on the Reset/Blocks Temporary Unprotect
pin, RP. This can be achieved without violating the
maximum ratings of the components on the micro-
processor bus, therefore this technique is suitable
for use after the memory has been fitted to the sys-
tem.
To protect a group of blocks follow the flowchart in
Figure 16, In -System Bloc k Protect Flowc hart. To
unprotec t the whol e chi p it is nec ess ar y to prote ct
all of the groups first, then all the groups can be
unprotected at the same time. To unprotect the
chip follow Figure 17, In-System Chip Unprotect
Flowchart.
The timing on these flowcharts is critical. Care
should be taken to ensure that, wher e a pause is
specifi ed, it is followe d as closely as possibl e. Do
not allow the mi croproce ssor to servi ce interrupts
that will upset the timing and do not abor t the pro-
cedure before reaching the end. Chip Unprotect
can take several seconds and a user message
should be provided to show that the operation is
progressing.
