Sector Erase Timer
The MBM29F400TC/BC also feature the “Toggle Bit I” as a method to indicate to the host system that the
Embedded Algorithms are in progress or completed.
During an Embedded Program or Erase Algorithm cycle, successive attempts to read (OE toggling) data from
the device will result in DQ
cycle is completed, DQ
programming, the Toggle Bit I is valid after the rising edge of the fourth write pulse in the four write pulse sequence.
For chip erase and sector erase, the Toggle Bit I is valid after the rising edge of the sixth write pulse in the six
write pulse sequence. The Toggle Bit I is active during the sector time out.
In programming, if the sector being written to is protected, the toggle bit l will toggle for about 2 µs and then stop
toggling without the data having changed. In erase, the device will erase all the selected sectors except for the
ones that are protected. If all selected sectors are protected, the chip will toggle the toggle bit for about 100 µs
and then drop back into read mode, having changed none of the data.
Either CE or OE toggling will cause the DQ

condition. The CE circuit will partially power down the device under these conditions (to approximately 2 mA).

After the completion of the initial sector erase command sequence the sector erase time-out will begin. DQ
remain low until the time-out is complete. Data Polling and Toggle Bit are valid after the initial sector erase
command sequence.
If Data Polling or the Toggle Bit I indicates the device has been written with a valid erase command, DQ
be used to determine if the sector erase timer window is still open. If DQ
