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.

Toggle Bit I may be read at any address, and is valid after
the rising edge of the final
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 I/O

Reading Toggle Bits I/O
Refer to Figure 6 for the following discussion. Whenever the
system initially begins reading toggle bit status, it must read
I/O
toggle bit is toggling. Typically, a 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 I/O
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 I/O
section on I/O
again whether the toggle bit is toggling, since the toggle bit
may have stopped toggling just as I/O
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 I/O
gone high. The system may continue to monitor the toggle
bit and I/O
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 6).
