Autoselect Mode
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device identification, and sec-
tor protection verification, through identifier codes output on DQ7–DQ0. This
mode is primarily intended for programming equipment to automatically match
a device to be programmed with its corresponding programming algorithm.
However, the autoselect codes can also be accessed in-system through the com-
mand register.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect mode requires V
ID
(11.5 V
to 12.5 V) on address pin A9. Address pins A6, A1, and A0 must be as shown in
Table
4
. In addition, when verifying sector protection, the sector address must
appear on the appropriate highest order address bits (see
Table 2 on page 20
and
Table 3 on page 21
).
Table 4 on page 22
shows the remaining address bits
that are don’t care. When all necessary bits are set as required, the program-
ming equipment may then read the corresponding identifier code on DQ7-DQ0.
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host system can issue the autose-
lect command via the command register, as shown in
Table 10 on page 37
and
Table 11 on page 43
. This method does not require V
ID
. See
Command
Definitions on page 29
for details on using the autoselect mode.
L = Logic Low = V
IL
, H = Logic High = V
IH
, SA = Sector Address, X = Don’t care.
Note:
The autoselect codes may also be accessed in-system via command sequences. See
Table 10 on page 37
and
Table 11 on page 43
.
Sector Protection/Unprotection
The hardware sector protection feature disables both program and erase opera-
tions in any sector. The hardware sector unprotection feature re-enables both
program and erase operations in previously protected sectors.
The device is normally shipped with all sectors unprotected. However, the Ex-
pressFlash Service offers the option of programming and protecting sectors at
the factory prior to shipping the device. Contact a sales office or representative
for details.
