• Manufacturer Part Number: mx25l8005
• Description: 8m-bit [x 1] Cmos Serial Flash
• Manufacturer: Macronix International Co.

DATA PROTECTION
The MX25L8005 are designed to offer protection against accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious system
level signals that may exist during power transition. During power up the device automatically resets the state machine
in the Read mode. In addition, with its control register architecture, alteration of the memory contents only occurs after
successful completion of specific command sequences. The device also incorporates several features to prevent
inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC power-up and power-down transition or system noise.
•
• Valid command length checking: The command length will be checked whether it is at byte base and completed on byte
• Write Enable (WREN) command: WREN command is required to set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL) before other

boundary.
command to change data. The WEL bit will return to reset stage under following situation:
- Power-up
- Write Disable (WRDI) command completion
- Write Status Register (WRSR) command completion
- Page Program (PP) command completion
- Sector Erase (SE) command completion
- Block Erase (BE) command completion
- Chip Erase (CE) command completion
Software Protection Mode (SPM): by using BP0-BP2 bits to set the part of Flash protected from data change.
Hardware Protection Mode (HPM): by using WP# going low to protect the BP0-BP2 bits and SRWD bit from data change.
Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device also is under protected from writing
all commands except Release from deep power down mode command (RDP) and Read Electronic Signature command
(RES).
