MX26LV800AT/AB
Q3
Sector Erase Timer
After the completion of the initial sector erase command
sequence, the sector erase time-out will begin. Q3 will
remain low until the time-out is complete. Data# Polling
and Toggle Bit are valid after the initial sector erase com-
mand sequence.
If Data# Polling or the Toggle Bit indicates the device
has been written with a valid erase command, Q3 may
be used to determine if the sector erase timer window is
still open. If Q3 is high ("1") the internally controlled
erase cycle has begun; attempts to write subsequent
commands to the device will be ignored until the erase
operation is completed as indicated by Data# Polling or
Toggle Bit. If Q3 is low ("0"), the device will accept
additional sector erase commands. To insure the com-
mand has been accepted, the system software should
check the status of Q3 prior to and following each sub-
sequent sector erase command. If Q3 were high on the
second status check, the command may not have been
accepted.
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
In order to reduce power switching effect, each device
should have a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor connected be-
tween its VCC and GND.
POWER-UP SEQUENCE
The MX26LV800AT/AB powers up in the Read only mode.
In addition, the memory contents may only be altered
after successful completion of the predefined command
sequences.
DATA PROTECTION
The MX26LV800AT/AB is designed to offer protection
against accidental erasure or programming caused by
spurious system level signals that may exist during power
transition. During power up the device automatically re-
sets the state machine in the Read mode. In addition,
with its control register architecture, alteration of the
memory contents only occurs after successful comple-
tion of specific command sequences. The device also
incorporates several features to prevent inadvertent write
cycles resulting from VCC power-up and power-down tran-
sition or system noise.
WRITE PULSE "GLITCH" PROTECTION
Noise pulses of less than 5ns(typical) on CE# or WE#
will not initiate a write cycle.
LOGICAL INHIBIT
Writing is inhibited by holding any one of OE# = VIL,
CE# = VIH or WE# = VIH. To initiate a write cycle CE#
and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a logical
one.
