Status Register Error Checking
Using nested locking or program command sequences during erase suspend can
introduce ambiguity into status register results.
Because locking changes require 2-cycle command sequences—for example, 60h
followed by 01h to lock a block—following the Configuration Setup command (60h) with
an invalid command produces a command sequence error (SR[5:4]=11b).
If a Lock Block command error occurs during erase suspend, the flash device sets
SR[4] and SR[5] to 1 even after the erase resumes. When erase is complete, possible
errors during the erase cannot be detected from the status register, because of the
previous locking command error. A similar situation occurs if a program operation error
is nested within an erase suspend.
WP# Lock-Down Control
The Write Protect signal, WP#, adds an additional layer of block security. WP# affects
only blocks that previously had the Lock-Down command written to them.
Only flash device reset or power-down can clear the lock-down status bit and render
WP# ineffective.
• After the lock-down status bit is set for a block, asserting WP# forces that block
• After WP# is deasserted, the state of the block reverts to locked [111]. Software
into the lock-down state [011] and prevents it from being unlocked.
commands can then unlock the block (for erase or program operations) and
subsequently re-lock it.
