During a Bulk Erase operation, the Flash memory does not accept any other Flash

instruction sequences.

27.4.16

Flash Sector Erase

The Sector Erase instruction sequence uses six WRITE operations, as described in

Table 117 on page 184. Additional Flash Sector Erase commands to other sectors within the

same Flash array may be issued by the 8032 if the additional commands are sent within a

limited amount of time.

The Erase Timeout Flag Bit (DQ3) reflects the timeout period allowed between two

consecutive sector erase instruction sequence bytes. If multiple sector erase commands are

desired, the additional sector erase commands (30h) must be sent by the 8032 to another

sector within 80µs after the previous sector erase command. DQ3 is 0 before this time

period has expired, indicating it is OK to issue additional sector erase commands. DQ3 will

go to logic ’1’ if the time has been longer than 80µs since the previous sector erase

command (time has expired), indicating that is not OK to send another sector erase

command. In this case, the 8032 must start a new sector erase instruction sequence (unlock

and command), beginning again after the current sector erase operation has completed.

During a Sector Erase operation, the memory status may be checked by reading the Error

Flag Bit (DQ5), the Toggle Flag Bit (DQ6), and the Data Polling Flag Bit (DQ7), as detailed in

Section 27.4.5: Reading the erase/program status bits on page 185.

During a Sector Erase operation, a Flash memory accepts only Reset Flash and Suspend

Sector Erase instruction sequences. Erasure of one Flash memory sector may be

suspended, in order to read data from another Flash memory sector, and then resumed.

The address provided with the initial Flash Sector Erase command sequence (Table 117 on

page 184) must select the first desired sector (FSx or CSBOOTx) to erase. Subsequent

sector erase commands that are appended within the timeout period must be addressed to

other desired segments within the same Flash memory array.

27.4.17

Suspend sector erase

When a Sector Erase operation is in progress, the Suspend Sector Erase instruction

sequence can be used to suspend the operation by writing B0h to any valid address within

the Flash array that currently is undergoing an erase operation. This allows reading of data

from a different Flash memory sector within the same array after the Erase operation has

been suspended. Suspend Sector Erase is accepted only during an Erase operation.

There is up to 15µs delay after the Suspend Sector Erase command is accepted and the

array goes to Read Array mode. The 8032 will monitor the Toggle Flag Bit (DQ6) to

determine when the erase operation has halted and Read Array mode is active.

If a Suspend Sector Erase instruction sequence was executed, the following rules apply:

●

Attempting to read from a Flash memory sector that was being erased outputs invalid

data.

●

Reading from a Flash memory sector that was not being erased is valid.

●

The Flash memory cannot be programmed, and only responds to Resume Sector

Erase and Reset Flash instruction sequences.

●

If a Reset Flash instruction sequence is received, data in the Flash memory sector that

was being erased is invalid.
