Block protection can be used to prevent any operation from modifying the data stored in the
memory. The blocks are protected in groups, refer to
Table 20
Erase operations within the protected group fail to change the data.
There are three techniques that can be used to control Block Protection, these are the
Programmer technique, the In-system technique and Temporary Unprotection. Temporary
Unprotection is controlled by the Reset/Block Temporary Unprotection pin, RP; this is
described in the Signal Descriptions section.
Programmer technique
The Programmer technique uses high (V
cannot be achieved using a standard microprocessor bus, therefore the technique is
recommended only for use in programming equipment.
To protect a group of blocks follow the flowchart in
Protect flowchart. To unprotect the whole chip it is necessary to protect all of the groups first,
then all groups can be unprotected at the same time. To unprotect the chip follow

The timing on these flowcharts is critical. Care should be taken to ensure that, where a
pause is specified, it is followed as closely as possible. Do not abort the procedure before
reaching the end. Chip Unprotect can take several seconds and a user message should be
provided to show that the operation is progressing.
In-system technique
The In-system technique requires a high voltage level on the Reset/Blocks Temporary
Unprotect pin, RP
components on the microprocessor bus, therefore this technique is suitable for use after the
memory has been fitted to the system.
To protect a group of blocks follow the flowchart in
Protect
then all the groups can be unprotected at the same time. To unprotect the chip follow

The timing on these flowcharts is critical. Care should be taken to ensure that, where a
pause is specified, it is followed as closely as possible. Do not allow the microprocessor to
service interrupts that will upset the timing and do not abort the procedure before reaching
the end. Chip Unprotect can take several seconds and a user message should be provided
to show that the operation is progressing.
