• Manufacturer Part Number: f25l32pa
• Description: 3v Only 32 Mbit Serial Flash Memory With Dual
• Manufacturer: Elite Semiconductor Memory Technology Inc.

ESMT
The software status register provides status on whether the flash
memory array is available for any Read or Write operation,
whether the device is Write enabled, and the state of the memory
Write protection. During an internal Erase or Program operation,
WRITE ENABLE LATCH (WEL)
The Write-Enable-Latch bit indicates the status of the internal
memory Write Enable Latch. If this bit is set to “1”, it indicates the
device is Write enabled. If the bit is set to “0” (reset), it indicates
the device is not Write enabled and does not accept any memory
Write (Program/ Erase) commands. This bit is automatically reset
under the following conditions:
• Power-up
• Write Disable (WRDI) instruction completion
• Page Program instruction completion
• Sector Erase instruction completion
• Block Erase instruction completion
• Chip Erase instruction completion
• Write Status Register instructions

Table 2: Software Status Register
Function
the status register may be read only to determine the completion
of an operation in progress. Table 2 describes the function of
each bit in the software status register.
BUSY
The BUSY bit determines whether there is an internal Erase or
Program operation in progress. A “1” for the BUSY bit indicates
the device is busy with an operation in progress. A “0” indicates
the device is ready for the next valid operation.
