9.1.1.5.5 Data Polling Flag DQ7 (DQ15 for Motorola)

When Erasing or Programming the Flash memory bit DQ7 (DQ15) outputs the complement

of the bit being entered for Programming/Writing on DQ7 (DQ15). Once the Program

instruction or the Write operation is completed, the true logic value is read on DQ7 (DQ15)

(in a Read operation). Flash memory specific features:

t Data Polling is effective after the fourth Write pulse (for programming) or after the

sixth Write pulse (for Erase). It must be performed at the address being programmed

or at an address within the Flash sector being erased.

t During an Erase instruction, DQ7 (DQ15) outputs a ‘0’. After completion of the

instruction, DQ7 (DQ15) will output the last bit programmed (it is a ‘1’ after erasing).

t If the location to be programmed is in a protected Flash sector, the instruction is

ignored.

t If all the Flash sectors to be erased are protected, DQ7 (DQ15) will be set to ‘0’ for

about 100 µs, and then return to the previous addressed location. No erasure will be

performed.

9.1.1.5.6 Toggle Flag DQ6 (DQ14 for Motorola)

The PSD4000 offers another way for determining when the Flash memory Program

instruction is completed. During the internal Write operation and when either the FSi or

CSBOOTi is true, the DQ6 (DQ14) will toggle from ‘0’ to ‘1’ and ‘1’ to ‘0’ on subsequent

attempts to read any word of the memory.

When the internal cycle is complete, the toggling will stop and the data read on the

Data Bus is the addressed memory location. The device is now accessible for a new

Read or Write operation. The operation is finished when two successive reads yield the

same output data. Flash memory specific features:

t The Toggle bit is effective after the fourth Write pulse (for programming) or after the

sixth Write pulse (for Erase).

t If the location to be programmed belongs to a protected Flash sector, the instruction

is ignored.

t If all the Flash sectors selected for erasure are protected, DQ6 (DQ14) will toggle to

‘0’ for about 100 µs and then return to the previous addressed location.

9.1.1.5.7 Error Flag DQ5 (DQ14 for Motorola)

During a correct Program or Erase, the Error bit will set to ‘0’. This bit is set to ‘1’ when

there is a failure during Flash programming, Sector erase, or Bulk Erase.

In the case of Flash programming, the Error Bit indicates the attempt to program a Flash

bit(s) from the programmed state (0) to the erased state (1), which is not a valid operation.

The Error bit may also indicate a timeout condition while attempting to program a word.

In case of an error in Flash sector erase or word program, the Flash sector in which the

error occurred or to which the programmed location belongs must no longer be used.

Other Flash sectors may still be used. The Error bit resets after the Reset instruction. A

reset instruction is required after detecting the error bit.

9.1.1.5.8 Erase Time-out Flag DQ3 (DQ11 for Motorola)

The Erase Timer bit reflects the time-out period allowed between two consecutive Sector

Erase instructions. The Erase timer bit is set to ‘0’ after a Sector Erase instruction for a

time period of 100 µs + 20% unless an additional Sector Erase instruction is decoded.

After this time period or when the additional Sector Erase instruction is decoded, DQ3

(DQ11) is set to ‘1’. A reset instruction is required after detecting the erase timer bit.
