Error Types and Clearing Procedures

There are three types of errors reported by the embedded operation status methods. Depending on the error type, the status

reported and procedure for clearing the error status is different. Following is the clearing of error status:



If an ASO was entered before the error the device remains entered in the ASO awaiting ASO read or a command write.



If an erase was suspended before the error the device returns to the erase suspended state awaiting flash array read or a

command write.



Otherwise, the device will be in standby state awaiting flash array read or a command write.

5.6.1

Embedded Operation Error

If an error occurs during an embedded operation (program, erase, blank check, or password unlock) the device (EAC) remains busy.

The RY/BY# output remains Low, data polling status continues to be overlaid on all address locations, and the status register shows

ready with valid status bits. The device remains busy until the error status is detected by the host system status monitoring and the

error status is cleared.

During embedded algorithm error status the Data Polling status will show the following:



DQ7 is the inversion of the DQ7 bit in the last word loaded into the write buffer or last word of the password in the case of

the password unlock command. DQ7 = 0 for an erase or blank check failure



DQ6 continues to toggle



DQ5 = 1; Failure of the embedded operation



DQ4 is RFU and should be treated as don’t care (masked)



DQ3 = 1 to indicate embedded sector erase in progress



DQ2 continues to toggle, independent of the address used to read status



DQ1 = 0; Write buffer abort error



DQ0 is RFU and should be treated as don’t care (masked)

During embedded algorithm error status the Status Register will show the following:



SR[7] = 1; Valid status displayed



SR[6] = X; May or may not be erase suspended during the EA error



SR[5] = 1 on erase or blank check error; else = 0



SR[4] = 1 on program or password unlock error; else = 0



SR[3] = 0; Write buffer abort



SR[2] = 0; Program suspended



SR[1] = 0; Protected sector



SR[0] = X; RFU, treat as don’t care (masked)

When the embedded algorithm error status is detected, it is necessary to clear the error status in order to return to normal operation,

with RY/BY# High, ready for a new read or command write. The error status can be cleared by writing:



Reset command



Status Register Clear command

Commands that are accepted during embedded algorithm error status are:



Status Register Read



Reset command



Status Register Clear command
