Furthermore, DQ
if this bit is read from an erasing sector.
Whenever the system initially begins reading Toggle bit status, it must read DQ
to determine whether a Toggle bit is toggling. Typically a system would note and store the value of the Toggle
bit after the first read. After the second read, the system would compare the new value of the Toggle bit with the
first. If the Toggle bit is not toggling, the device has completed the program or erase operation. The system can
read array data on DQ
However, if, after the initial two read cycles, the system determines that the Toggle bit is still toggling, the system
also should note whether the value of DQ
determine again whether the Toggle bit is toggling, since the Toggle bit may have stopped toggling just as DQ
went high. If the Toggle bit is no longer toggling, the device has successfully completed the program or erase
operation. If it is still toggling, the device did not complete the operation successfully, and the system must write
the reset command to return to reading array data.
The remaining scenario is that the system initially determines that the Toggle bit is toggling and DQ
gone high. The system may continue to monitor the Toggle bit and DQ
mining the status as described in the previous paragraph. Alternatively, it may choose to perform other system
tasks. In this case, the system must start at the beginning of the algorithm when it returns to determine the status
of the operation. (Refer to “Toggle Bit Algorithm” in ■FLOW CHART.)
