Resetting the write enable latch bit to 0 indicates that no write or erase cycle will be
accepted. Set the write enable latch bit to 1 before every write bytes, write status,
erase bulk, and erase sector operation.
The non-volatile block protect bits determine the area of the memory protected from
being written or erased unintentionally.
protected area in the serial configuration devices with reference to the block protect
bits. The erase bulk operation is only available when all the block protect bits are 0.
When any of the block protect bits are set to 1, the relevant area is protected from
being written by write bytes operations or erased by erase sector operations.
