4M BIT SPI NOR FLASH

Chip Erase (60/C7H)

The Chip Erase instruction sets all memory within the device to the erased state of all 1s (FFh).

A Write Enable instruction must be executed before the device will accept the Chip Erase

Instruction (Status Register bit WEL must equal 1). The instruction is initiated by driving the

/CS pin low and

shifting the instruction code “C7h” or “60h”. The Chip Erase instruction

sequence is shown in Figure 31.

The /CS pin must be driven high after the eighth bit has been latched. If this is not done the

Chip Erase instruction will not be executed. After /CS is driven high, the self-timed Chip

Erase instruction will commence for a time duration of tCE. While the Chip Erase cycle is in

progress, the Read Status Register instruction may still be accessed to check the status of the

WIP bit.

The WIP bit is a 1 during the Chip Erase cycle and becomes a 0 when finished and the device

Is ready to accept other Instructions again. After the Chip Erase cycle has finished the Write

Enable Latch

Erase / Program Suspend (75H)

The Erase/Program Suspend instruction allows the system to interrupt a Sector or Block

Erase operation, then read from or program data to any other sector. The Erase/Program

Suspend instruction also allows the system to interrupt a Page Program operation and then

read from any other page or erase any other sector or block. The Erase/Program Suspend

instruction sequence is shown in Figure 32.

The Write Status Registers instruction (01h) and Erase instructions (20h, D8h, C7h, 60h, 44h)

Are not allowed during Erase Suspend. Erase Suspend is valid only during the Sector or Block

Erase operation.If written during the Chip Erase operation, the Erase Suspend instruction is

ignored.The Write Status Registers instruction (01h), and Program instructions (02h,

32h,

42h)are not allowed during Program Suspend. Program Suspend is valid only during

the

Page Program operation.
