S29AL016J
General Description
The S29AL016J is a 16 Mbit, 3.0 Volt-only Flash memory organized as 2,097,152 bytes or 1,048,576 words. The device is offered in
48-ball Fine-pitch BGA (0.8 mm pitch), 64-ball Fortified BGA (1.0 mm pitch) and 48-pin TSOP packages. The word-wide data (x16)
appears on DQ15–DQ0; the byte-wide (x8) data appears on DQ7–DQ0. This device is designed to be programmed in-system with
the standard system 3.0 volt VCC supply. A 12.0 V VPP or 5.0 VCC are not required for write or erase operations. The device can also
be programmed in standard EPROM programmers.
The device offers access time of 55 ns allowing high speed microprocessors to operate without wait states. To eliminate bus
contention the device has separate chip enable (CE#), write enable (WE#) and output enable (OE#) controls.
The device requires only a single 3.0 volt power supply for both read and write functions. Internally generated and regulated
voltages are provided for the program and erase operations.
The S29AL016J is entirely command set compatible with the JEDEC single-power-supply Flash standard. Commands are written
to the command register using standard microprocessor write timings. Register contents serve as input 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. This initiates the Embedded Program algorithm—an
internal algorithm that automatically times the program pulse widths and verifies proper cell margin. 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. This initiates the Embedded Erase algorithm—an internal
algorithm that automatically preprograms the array (if it is not already programmed) before executing the erase operation. During
erase, the device automatically times the erase pulse widths and verifies proper cell margin.
The host system can detect whether a program or erase operation is complete by observing the RY/BY# pin, or 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 the 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.
The hardware RESET# pin terminates any operation in progress and resets the internal state machine to reading array data. The
RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset circuitry. A system reset would thus also reset the device, enabling the system
microprocessor to read the boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.
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.
Cypress combines years of flash memory manufacturing experience to produce the highest levels of quality, reliability and cost
effectiveness. The device electrically erases all bits within a sector simultaneously via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is
programmed using hot electron injection.

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 composed of latches that
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 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.

11. Address In = Amax:A0 in WORD mode (BYTE#=VIH), Address In = Amax:A-1 in BYTE mode (BYTE#=VIL). Sector addresses are Amax to A12 in both WORD mode
and BYTE mode.
12. The sector protect and sector unprotect functions may also be implemented via programming equipment. See Section 7.10 Sector Group Protection/Unprotection on
page 17.
13. If WP# = VIL, the outermost sector remains protected (determined by device configuration). If WP# = VIH, the outermost sector protection depends on whether the
sector was last protected or unprotected using the method described in Section 7.10 Sector Group Protection/Unprotection on page 17. The WP# contains an internal
pull-up; when unconnected, WP is at VIH.
14. DIN or DOUT as required by command sequence, data polling, or sector group protection algorithm.

7.1
Word/Byte Configuration
The BYTE# pin controls whether the device data I/O pins DQ15–DQ0 operate in the byte or word configuration. If the BYTE# pin is
set at logic 1, the device is in word configuration, DQ15–DQ0 are active and controlled by CE# and OE#.
If the BYTE# pin is set at logic 0, the device is in byte configuration, and only data I/O pins DQ0–DQ7 are active and controlled by
CE# and OE#. The data I/O pins DQ8–DQ14 are tri-stated, and the DQ15 pin is used as an input for the LSB (A-1) address function.
7.2
Requirements for Reading Array Data
To read array data from the outputs, the system must drive the CE# and OE# pins to VIL. CE# is the power control and selects the
device. OE# is the output control and gates array data to the output pins. WE# should remain at VIH. The BYTE# pin determines
whether the device outputs array data in words or bytes.
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. The device remains enabled for read access until the command register contents are altered.
See Section 10.1 Reading Array Data on page 25 for more information. Refer to the AC Section 17.1 Read Operations on page 41
for timing specifications and to Figure 15 on page 41 for the timing diagram. ICC1 in Section 14. DC Characteristics on page 38
represents the active current specification for reading array data.
7.3
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# to VIL, and OE# to VIH.
For program operations, the BYTE# pin determines whether the device accepts program data in bytes or words. See Section 7.1
Word/Byte Configuration on page 12 for more information.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facilitate faster programming. Once the device enters the Unlock Bypass mode,
only two write cycles are required to program a word or byte, instead of four. Section 10.5 Word/Byte Program Command
Sequence on page 26 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 2 on page 14 and Table 4 on page 15 indicate
the address space that each sector occupies. A “sector address” consists of the address bits required to uniquely select a sector.
The Section 10. Command Definitions on page 25 has details on erasing a sector or the entire chip, or suspending/resuming the
erase operation.
After 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 DQ7–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings
apply in this mode. Refer to Section 7.9 Autoselect Mode on page 16 and Section 10.3 Autoselect Command Sequence on page 25
for more information.
ICC2 in Section 14. DC Characteristics on page 38 represents the active current specification for the write mode. Section 17. AC
Characteristics on page 41 contains timing specification tables and timing diagrams for write operations.
7.4
Program and Erase Operation Status
During an erase or program operation, the system may check the status of the operation by reading the status bits on DQ7–DQ0.
Standard read cycle timings and ICC read specifications apply. Refer to Section 11. Write Operation Status on page 32 for more
information, and to Section 17. AC Characteristics on page 41 for timing diagrams.

7.5
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# and RESET# pins are both held at VCC 0.3 V. (Note that this is a more
restricted voltage range than VIH.) If CE# and RESET# are held at VIH, but not within VCC 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 and ICC4 represents the standby current specification shown in the table in Section 14. DC Characteristics on page 38.
7.6
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. ICC4 in the Section 14. DC Characteristics on page 38 represents the automatic sleep mode current
specification.
7.7
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading array data. When the system drives the RESET#
pin to VIL for at least a period of tRP, the device immediately terminates any operation in progress, tristates all data output pins, and
ignores all read/write attempts 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 ±0.3V, the device draws CMOS standby
current (ICC4). If RESET# is held at VIL but not within VSS ±0.3/0.1V, 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. Note that the CE# pin should only go to VIL after RESET# has gone to
VIH. Keeping CE# at VIL from power up through the first read could cause the first read to retrieve erroneous data.
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 Section 17. AC Characteristics on page 41 for RESET# parameters and to Figure 16 on page 42 for the timing
diagram.
7.8
Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at VIH, output from the device is disabled. The output pins are placed in the high impedance state.

Autoselect Mode
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device identification, and sector group 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 (8.5 V to 12.5 V) on address pin A9. Address pins A6 and
A3–A0 must be as shown in Table 6. In addition, when verifying sector group protection, the sector address must appear on the
appropriate highest order address bits (see Table 2 on page 14 and Table 4 on page 15). Table 6 shows 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.
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host system can issue the autoselect command via the command register, as shown
in Table 13 on page 30. This method does not require VID. See Section 10. Command Definitions on page 25 for details on using the
autoselect mode.

7.10 Sector Group Protection/Unprotection
The hardware sector group protection feature disables both program and erase operations in any sector group (see Table 2
on page 14 to Table 4 on page 15). The hardware sector group unprotection feature re-enables both program and erase operations
in previously protected sector groups. Sector group protection/unprotection can be implemented via two methods.
Sector protection/unprotection requires VID on the RESET# pin only, and can be implemented either in-system or via programming
equipment. Figure 5 on page 19 shows the algorithms and Figure 26 on page 48 shows the timing diagram. This method uses
standard microprocessor bus cycle timing. For sector group unprotect, all unprotected sector groups must first be protected prior to
the first sector group unprotect write cycle.
The device is shipped with all sector groups unprotected. Cypress offers the option of programming and protecting sector groups at
its factory prior to shipping the device through Cypress Programming Service. Contact a Cypress representative for details.
It is possible to determine whether a sector group is protected or unprotected. See Section 7.9 Autoselect Mode on page 16 for
details.

7.11 Temporary Sector Group Unprotect
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previously protected sector groups to change data in-system. The Sector Group
Unprotect mode is activated by setting the RESET# pin to VID. During this mode, formerly protected sector groups can be
programmed or erased by selecting the sector group addresses. Once VID is removed from the RESET# pin, all the previously
protected sector groups are protected again. Figure 4 shows the algorithm, and Figure 25 on page 47 shows the timing diagrams,
for this feature.

8. Secured Silicon Sector Flash Memory Region
The Secured Silicon Sector feature provides a 256-byte Flash memory region that enables permanent part identification through an
Electronic Serial Number (ESN). The Secured Silicon Sector uses a Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit (DQ7) to indicate whether
or not the Secured Silicon Sector is locked when shipped from the factory. This bit is permanently set at the factory and cannot be
changed, which prevents cloning of a factory-locked part. This ensures the security of the ESN once the product is shipped to the
field.
Cypress offers the device with the Secured Silicon Sector either factory-locked or customer-lockable. The factory-locked version is
always protected when shipped from the factory, and has the Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a 1. The
customer-lockable version is shipped with the Secured Silicon Sector unprotected, allowing customers to utilize the that sector in
any manner they choose. The customer-lockable version has the Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit permanently set to a 0. Thus,
the Secured Silicon Sector Indicator Bit prevents customer-lockable devices from being used to replace devices that are factory
locked.
The system accesses the Secured Silicon Sector through a command sequence (see Section 10.4 Enter/Exit Secured Silicon Sector
Command Sequence on page 26). After the system writes 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. On power-up, or
following a hardware reset, the device reverts to sending commands to the boot sectors.
8.1
Factory Locked: Secured Silicon Sector Programmed and Protected at the Factory
In a factory locked device, the Secured Silicon Sector is protected when the device is shipped from the factory. The Secured Silicon
Sector cannot be modified in any way. The device is available pre-programmed with one of the following:
A random, secure ESN only.
Customer code through the ExpressFlash service.
Both a random, secure ESN and customer code through the ExpressFlash service.
In devices that have an ESN, a Bottom Boot device has the 16-byte (8-word) ESN in sector 0 at addresses 00000h–0000Fh in byte
mode (or 00000h–00007h in word mode). In the Top Boot device, the ESN is in sector 34 at addresses 1FFFF0h–1FFFFFh in byte
mode (or FFFF8h–FFFFFh in word mode).
Customers may opt to have their code programmed by Cypress through the Cypress ExpressFlash service. Cypress programs the
customer’s code, with or without the random ESN. The devices are then shipped from the Cypress factory with the Secured Silicon
Sector permanently locked. Contact a Cypress representative for details on using the Cypress ExpressFlash service.

8.2
Customer Lockable: Secured Silicon Sector NOT Programmed or Protected at the Factory
The customer lockable version allows the Secured Silicon Sector to be programmed once, and then permanently locked after it
ships from Cypress. Note that the unlock bypass functions is not available when programming the Secured Silicon Sector.
The Secured Silicon Sector area can be protected using the following procedures:
Write the three-cycle Enter Secured Silicon Region command sequence, and then follow the in-system sector group protect
algorithm as shown in Figure 5 on page 19, substituting the sector group address with the Secured Silicon Sector group address
(A0=0, A1=1, A2=0, A3=1, A4=1, A5=0, A6=0, A7=0). 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 6 on page 21.
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 protection must be used with caution since, once protected, there is no procedure available for
unprotecting the Secured Silicon Sector area, and none of the bits in the Secured Silicon Sector memory space can be modified in
any way.

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 deviceindependent, 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 in word mode (or
address AAh in byte mode), any time the device is ready to read array data. The system can read CFI information at the addresses
given in Table 9 to Table 12 on page 23. In word mode, the upper address bits (A7–MSB) must be all zeros. To terminate reading
CFI data, the system must write the reset command.
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 9 to Table 12 on page 23. The system must write the reset
command to return the device to the autoselect mode.

9.1
Hardware Data Protection
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles for programming or erasing provides data protection against inadvertent
writes (refer to Table 13 on page 30 for command definitions). 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.
9.1.1 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. 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.
9.1.2 Write Pulse Glitch Protection
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE# or WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
9.1.3 Logical Inhibit
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# = VIL, CE# = VIH or WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle, CE# and WE# must be
a logical zero while OE# is a logical one.
9.1.4 Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# = 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 reading array data on power-up.
Document Number: 002-00777 Rev. *Q
Page 24 of 57
S29AL016J
10. Command Definitions
Writing specific address and data commands or sequences into the command register initiates device operations. Table 13
on page 30 defines the valid register command sequences. Writing incorrect address and data values or writing them in the
improper sequence resets the device to reading array data.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE# or CE#, whichever happens later. All data is latched on the rising edge of WE#
or CE#, whichever happens first. Refer to the appropriate timing diagrams in Section 17. AC Characteristics on page 41.
10.1 Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data after device power-up. No commands are required to retrieve data. The device
is also ready to read array data after completing an Embedded Program or Embedded Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command, the device enters the Erase Suspend mode. The system can read array data
using the standard read timings, 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 Section 10.9 Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands on page 28 for more information on this mode.
The system must issue the reset command to re-enable the device for reading array data if DQ5 goes high, or while in the autoselect
mode. See Section 10.2 Reset Command on page 25.
See also Section 7.2 Requirements for Reading Array Data on page 12 for more information. The Section 17.1 Read Operations on
page 41 provides the read parameters, and Figure 15 on page 41 shows the timing diagram.
10.2 Reset Command
Writing the reset command to the device resets the device to reading array data. Address bits are don’t care for this command.
The reset command may be written between the sequence cycles in an erase command sequence before erasing begins. This
resets the device to reading array data. 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 device to reading array data (also applies to programming in Erase Suspend 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 reading array data (also applies to autoselect during Erase Suspend).
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation, writing the reset command returns the device to reading array data (also
applies during Erase Suspend).
10.3 Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host system to access the manufacturer and devices codes, and determine whether
or not a sector is protected. Table 13 on page 30 shows the address and data requirements. This method is an alternative to that
shown in Table 6 on page 16, which is intended for PROM programmers and requires VID on address bit A9.
The autoselect command sequence is initiated by writing two unlock cycles, followed by the autoselect command. The device then
enters the autoselect mode, and the system may read at any address any number of times, without initiating another command
sequence.
A read cycle at address XX00h retrieves the manufacturer code. A read cycle at address XX01h returns the device code. A read
cycle containing a sector address (SA) and the address 02h in word mode (or 04h in byte mode) returns 01h if that sector is
protected, or 00h if it is unprotected. Refer to Table 2 on page 14 and Table 4 on page 15 for valid sector addresses.
The system must write the reset command to exit the autoselect mode and return to reading array data.
Document Number: 002-00777 Rev. *Q
Page 25 of 57
S29AL016J
10.4 Enter/Exit Secured Silicon Sector Command Sequence
The Secured Silicon Sector region provides a secured data area containing a random, sixteen-byte 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.
Table 13 on page 30 shows the addresses and data requirements for both command sequences. Note that the unlock bypass mode
is not available when the device enters the Secured Silicon Sector. See also “Secured Silicon Sector Flash Memory Region” on
page 20 for further information.
10.5 Word/Byte Program Command Sequence
The system may program the device by word or byte, depending on the state of the BYTE# pin. 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 generates the program pulses and verifies the
programmed cell margin. Table 13 on page 30 shows the address and data requirements for the byte program command sequence.
When the Embedded Program algorithm is complete, the device then returns to reading array data and addresses are no longer
latched. The system can determine the status of the program operation by using DQ7, DQ6, or RY/BY#. See Section 11. Write
Operation Status on page 32 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 programming operation. The Byte Program command sequence should be reinitiated once the device has reset to
reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
Programming is allowed in any sequence and across sector boundaries. A bit cannot be programmed from a 0 back to a 1.
Attempting to do so may halt the operation and set DQ5 to 1, or cause the Data# Polling algorithm 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.
10.6 Unlock Bypass Command Sequence
The unlock bypass feature allows the system to program bytes or words to the device 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. The device 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 13 on page 30 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. The first cycle must contain the data
90h; the second cycle the data 00h. Addresses are don’t care for both cycles. The device then returns to reading array data.
Figure 7 on page 27 illustrates the algorithm for the program operation. See Section 17.4 Erase/Program Operations on page 44 for
parameters, and to Figure 19 on page 44 for timing diagrams.

10.7 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 13 on page 30 shows the address and data requirements
for the chip erase command sequence.
Any commands written to the chip during the Embedded Erase algorithm are ignored. Note that a hardware reset during the chip
erase operation immediately terminates the operation. The Chip Erase command sequence should be reinitiated once the device
has returned to reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
The system can determine the status of the erase operation by using DQ7, DQ6, DQ2, or RY/BY#. See Section 11. Write Operation
Status on page 32 for information on these status bits. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the device returns to
reading array data and addresses are no longer latched.
Figure 8 on page 29 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. See Section 17.4 Erase/Program Operations on page 44 for
parameters, and Figure 20 on page 45 for timing diagrams.

Page 27 of 57
S29AL016J
10.8 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 write cycles are then followed by the address of the sector to be erased, and the sector
erase command. Table 13 on page 30 shows the address and data requirements for the sector erase command sequence.
The device does not require the system to preprogram the memory prior to erase. The Embedded Erase algorithm automatically
programs and verifies the sector 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 begins. During the time-out period, additional sector
addresses and sector erase commands may be written. However, these additional erase commands are only one bus cycle long
and should be identical to the sixth cycle of the standard erase command explained above. 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 the last address and command might not be accepted, and erasure may begin. 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 the time between additional sector erase commands can be assumed
to be less than 50 µs, the system need not monitor DQ3. Any command other than Sector Erase or Erase Suspend during the
time-out period resets the device to reading array data. The system must rewrite the command sequence and any additional
sector addresses and commands.
The system can monitor DQ3 to determine if the sector erase timer has timed out. (See Section 11.7 DQ3: Sector Erase Timer on
page 35.) The time-out begins from the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the command sequence.
Once the sector erase operation has begun, only the Erase Suspend command is valid. All other commands are ignored. Note that
a hardware reset during the sector erase operation immediately terminates the operation. The Sector Erase command sequence
should be reinitiated once the device has returned to reading array data, to ensure data integrity.
When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, the device returns to reading array data 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 Section 11. Write
Operation Status on page 32 for information on these status bits.)
Figure 8 on page 29 illustrates the algorithm for the erase operation. Refer to Section 17.4 Erase/Program Operations on page 44
for parameters, and to Figure 20 on page 45 for timing diagrams.
10.9 Erase Suspend/Erase Resume Commands
The Erase Suspend command allows the system to interrupt a sector erase operation and then read data from, or program data to,
any sector not selected for erasure. 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. Writing the Erase Suspend command during the Sector Erase time-out immediately
terminates the time-out period and suspends the erase operation. Addresses are don’t-cares when writing the Erase Suspend
command.
When the Erase Suspend command is written during a 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.
After the erase operation has been suspended, the system can read array data from or program data to any sector not selected for
erasure. (The device “erase suspends” all sectors selected for erasure.) Normal read and write timings and command definitions
apply. Reading at any address within erase-suspended sectors produces status data 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. See Section 11. Write Operation
Status on page 32 for information on these status bits.
After an erase-suspended program operation is complete, the system can once again read array data within non-suspended
sectors. 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 Section 11. Write Operation Status on page 32 for more information.
The system may also write the autoselect command sequence when the device is in the Erase Suspend mode. 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. See
Section 10.3 Autoselect Command Sequence on page 25 for more information.
Document Number: 002-00777 Rev. *Q
Page 28 of 57
S29AL016J
The system must write the Erase Resume command (address bits are don’t care) to exit the erase suspend mode and continue the
sector erase operation. Further writes of the Resume command are ignored. Another Erase Suspend command can be written after
the device has resumed erasing.

11. Write Operation Status
The device provides several bits to determine the status of a write operation: DQ2, DQ3, DQ5, DQ6, DQ7, and RY/BY#. Table 14
on page 35 and the following subsections describe the functions of these bits. DQ7, RY/BY#, and DQ6 each offer a method for
determining whether a program or erase operation is complete or in progress. These three bits are discussed first.
11.1 DQ7: Data# Polling
The Data# Polling bit, DQ7, indicates to the host system whether an Embedded Algorithm is in progress or completed, or whether
the device is in Erase Suspend. Data# Polling is valid after the rising edge of the final WE# pulse in the program or erase 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 the device returns to reading
array data.
During the Embedded Erase algorithm, Data# Polling produces a 0 on DQ7. When the Embedded Erase algorithm is complete, or if
the device enters the Erase Suspend mode, Data# Polling produces a 1 on DQ7. This is analogous to the complement/true datum
output described for the Embedded Program algorithm: the erase function changes all the bits in a sector to 1; prior to this, the
device outputs the complement, or 0. 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 100 µs, then the device 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.
When the system detects DQ7 has changed from the complement to true data, it can read valid data at DQ7–DQ0 on the following
read cycles. This is because DQ7 may change asynchronously with DQ0–DQ6 while Output Enable (OE#) is asserted low.
Figure 22 on page 46, illustrates this.
Table 14 on page 35 shows the outputs for Data# Polling on DQ7. Figure 10 on page 34 shows the Data# Polling algorithm.

Notes
38. VA = Valid address for programming. During a sector erase operation, a valid address is an address within any sector selected for erasure. During chip erase, a valid
address is any non-protected sector address.
39. DQ7 should be rechecked even if DQ5 = 1 because DQ7 may change simultaneously with DQ5.
11.2 RY/BY#: Ready/Busy#
The RY/BY# is a dedicated, open-drain output pin that 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 ready to read array data (including during the Erase Suspend mode), or is in the standby
mode.
Table 14 on page 35 shows the outputs for RY/BY#. Figures Figure 15 on page 41, Figure 16 on page 42, Figure 19 on page 44
and Figure 20 on page 45 shows RY/BY# for read, reset, program, and erase operations, respectively.
11.3 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 100 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 erasesuspended. Alternatively, the system can use DQ7 (see Section 11.1 DQ7: Data# Polling on page 32).
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 14 on page 35 shows the outputs for Toggle Bit I on DQ6. Figure 10 on page 34 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart
form, and Section 11.5 Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2 on page 34 explains the algorithm. Figure 23 on page 46 shows the toggle bit
timing diagrams. Figure 24 on page 47 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form. See also the subsection on
Section 11.4 DQ2: Toggle Bit II on page 33.
11.4 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# to control the read cycles.) But DQ2 cannot distinguish whether the sector is actively erasing or is erasesuspended. 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 14
on page 35 to compare outputs for DQ2 and DQ6.
Figure 10 on page 34 shows the toggle bit algorithm in flowchart form, and the section Section 11.5 Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/
DQ2 on page 34 explains the algorithm. See also the Section 11.3 DQ6: Toggle Bit I on page 33 subsection. Figure 23 on page 46
shows the toggle bit timing diagram. Figure 24 on page 47 shows the differences between DQ2 and DQ6 in graphical form.

S29AL016J
11.5 Reading Toggle Bits DQ6/DQ2
Refer to Figure 10 on page 34 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 complete 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 10 on page 34).

11.6 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. This is a failure condition that indicates the program or erase cycle was not successfully completed.
The DQ5 failure condition may appear if the system tries to program a 1 to a location that is 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 operation has
exceeded the timing limits, DQ5 produces a 1.
Under both these conditions, the system must issue the reset command to return the device to reading array data.
11.7 DQ3: Sector Erase Timer
After writing a sector erase command sequence, the system may read DQ3 to determine whether or not an erase operation 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 is complete, DQ3 switches from 0 to 1. The
system may ignore DQ3 if the system can guarantee that the time between additional sector erase commands will always be less
than 50 s. See also Section 10.8 Sector Erase Command Sequence on page 28.
After the sector erase command sequence is written, the system should read the status on DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit
I) to ensure the device has accepted the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is 1, the internally controlled erase cycle
has begun; all further commands (other than 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 14 shows the outputs for DQ3.

to 20 ns. See Figure 11 on page 37. Maximum DC input voltage on pin A9 is +12.5 V which may overshoot to 14.0 V for periods up to 20 ns.
46. 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.
47. 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.

Notes
76. Typical program and erase times assume the following conditions: 25C, VCC = 3.0 V, 100,000 cycles, checkerboard data pattern.
77. Under worst case conditions of 90°C, VCC = 2.7 V, 1,000,000 cycles.
78. 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.
79. In the pre-programming step of the Embedded Erase algorithm, all bytes are programmed to 00h before erasure.
80. System-level overhead is the time required to execute the two- or four-bus-cycle sequence for the program command. See Table 13 on page 30 for further information
on command definitions.
81. The device has a minimum erase and program cycle endurance of 100,000 cycles per sector.
