Figure 9.2 PBB Program Operation

9.2.2

Erasing PPB

The All PPB Erase command is used to erase all the PPBs in bulk. There are no means for individually

erasing a specific PPB. The first three cycles of the PPB Erase command are standard unlock cycles. The

fourth cycle executes the erase pulse to all the PBBs. The user must wait either 20ms or until DQ6 stops

toggling before executing the fifth cycle, which is the read verify portion of the PPB Erase Command. The

sixth cycle outputs the status of the PPB Erase operation.

In the event that the erase PPB operation was not successful, the user can loop directly to the fourth cycle of

the All PPB Erase Command to perform the erase pulse and read verification again. After four unsuccessful

loops through the erase pulse and read verification cycles, the PPB erasing operation should be considered a

failure.

Note

All PPB must be preprogrammed prior to issuing the All PPB Erase Command.

Either poll DQ6 in the

small bank and wait for

it to stop toggling OR

wait 100
