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 com-
mand 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. Each bank remains
enabled for read access until the command register
contents are altered.
Refer to the AC Flash Read-Only Operations table for
timing specifications and to Figure 14 for the timing di-
agram. I
the active current specification for reading array data.
Writing Commands/Command Sequences
To write a command or command sequence (which in-
cludes programming data to the device and erasing
sectors of memory), the system must drive WE# and
CE#f to V
For program operations, the CIOf pin determines
whether the device accepts program data in bytes or
words. Refer to “Word/Byte Configuration” for more in-
formation.
The device features an Unlock Bypass mode to facil-
itate faster programming. Once a bank enters the Un-
lock Bypass mode, only two write cycles are required
to program a word or byte, instead of four. The
“Byte/Word Program Command Sequence” section
has details on programming data to the device using
both standard and Unlock Bypass command se-
quences.
An erase operation can erase one sector, multiple sec-
tors, or the entire device. Table 5 indicates the address
space that each sector occupies. Similarly, a “sector
address” is the address bits required to uniquely select
a sector. The “Command Definitions” section has de-
tails on erasing a sector or the entire chip, or suspend-
ing/resuming the erase operation.
The device address space is divided into four banks. A
“bank address” is the address bits required to uniquely
select a bank.

Characteristics section contains timing specification
tables and timing diagrams for write operations.
Accelerated Program Operation
The device offers accelerated program operations
through the ACC function. This is one of two functions
provided by the WP#/ACC pin. This function is prima-
rily intended to allow faster manufacturing throughput
at the factory.

mode, temporarily unprotects any protected sectors,

time required for program operations. The system

gramming, or device damage may result. In addition,
the WP#/ACC pin must not be left floating or uncon-
nected; inconsistent behavior of the device may result.
See “Write Protect (WP#)” on page 20 for related in-
formation.
Autoselect Functions
If the system writes the autoselect command se-
quence, the device enters the autoselect mode. The
system can then read autoselect codes from the inter-
nal register (which is separate from the memory array)
on DQ15–DQ0. Standard read cycle timings apply in
this mode. Refer to the Sector/Sector Block Protection
and Unprotection and Autoselect Command Se-
quence sections for more information.
Simultaneous Read/Write Operations with
Zero Latency
This device is capable of reading data from one bank
of memory while programming or erasing in the other
bank of memory. An erase operation may also be sus-
pended to read from or program to another location
within the same bank (except the sector being
erased). Figure 21 shows how read and write cycles
may be initiated for simultaneous operation with zero
latency. I

Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the de-
vice, 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#f and RESET# pins are both held at V
(Note that this is a more restricted voltage range than
V
within V
mode, but the standby current will be greater. The de-
vice requires standard access time (t

modes, before it is ready to read data.
