Abstract
A method of performing a power on sequence for a flash memory includes applying device voltage to the flash memory and performing an error bit check on at least one memory cell in the flash memory during initial power up. The at least one memory cell in the flash memory is read only after the error bit check determines that the device voltage is stable. The data read from the at least one memory cell is loaded to an information register.
