Pointer Operation of K9F2808X0B
K9F2808Q0B-DCB0,DIB0
K9F2808U0B-VCB0,VIB0
Samsung NAND Flash has three address pointer commands as a substitute for the two most significant column addresses. ’00h’
command sets the pointer to ’A’ area(0~255byte), ’01h’ command sets the pointer to ’B’ area(256~511byte), and ’50h’ command sets
the pointer to ’C’ area(512~527byte). With these commands, starting column address can be set to somewhere of a whole
page(0~527byte). ’00h’ or ’50h’ is sustained until another address pointer command is entered. But, ’01h’ command is effective only
for one time operation. After any operation of Read, Program, Erase, Reset, Power_Up following ’01h’ command, the address
pointer returns to ’A’ area by itself. To program data starting from ’A’ or ’C’ area, ’00h’ or ’50h’ command must be entered before ’80h’
command is written. A complete read operation prior to ’80h’ command is not necessary. To program data starting from ’B’ area,
’01h’ command must be entered right before ’80h’ command is written.

The address pointer is set to ’A’ area(0~255), and sustained
The address pointer is set to ’B’ area(256~512), and will be reset to
’A’ area after every program operation is executed.
The address pointer is set to ’C’ area(512~527), and sustained
