Factory Locked: Secured Silicon Sector Programmed
and Protected at the Factory
Customer Lockable: Secured Silicon Sector NOT Programmed
or Protected at the Factory
Spansion 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
Sector/Exit Secured Silicon Sector Command Sequence on page
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.
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:
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 70 at addresses 3FFF00h–3FFF0Fh in byte mode (or 1FFF80h–1FFF87h in word mode). In the
Uniform device, the ESN is in sector 63 at addresses 3FFF00h-3FFF0Fh in byte mode (or 1FFF80h-1FFF87h
in word mode).
Customers may opt to have their code programmed by Spansion through the Spansion ExpressFlash
service. Spansion programs the customer’s code, with or without the random ESN. The devices are then
shipped from the Spansion factory with the Secured Silicon Sector permanently locked. Contact a Spansion
representative for details on using the Spansion ExpressFlash service.
The customer lockable version allows the Secured Silicon Sector to be programmed once, and then
permanently locked after it ships from Spansion. Note that the accelerated programming (ACC) and unlock
bypass functions are not available when programming the Secured Silicon Sector.
The Secured Silicon Sector area can be protected using the following procedures:
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.
A random, secure ESN only.
Customer code through the ExpressFlash service.
Both a random, secure ESN and customer code through the ExpressFlash service.
Write the three-cycle Enter Secured Silicon Region command sequence, and then follow the in-system
sector protect algorithm as shown in
V
voltage. 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
8.1 on page
ID
. This allows in-system protection of the Secured Silicon Sector without raising any device pin to a high
28.
