Hardware Data Protection
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles
for programming or erasing provides data protection
COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific address and data commands or se-
quences into the command register initiates device op-
erations. The Command Definitions table defines the
valid register command sequences. Writing incorrect
address and data values or writing them in the im-
proper sequence resets the device to reading array
data.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE# or
CE#, whichever happens later. All data is latched on
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever happens
first. Refer to the appropriate timing diagrams in the
“AC Characteristics” section.
Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to
retrieve data. The device is also ready to read array
data after completing an Embedded Program or Em-
bedded Erase algorithm.

against inadvertent writes (refer to the Command Defi-
nitions table). In addition, the following hardware data
protection measures prevent accidental erasure or pro-
gramming, which might otherwise be caused by spuri-
ous system level signals during V
power-down transitions, or from system noise.
Low V
When V
cept any write cycles. This protects data during V
power-up and power-down. The command register and
all internal program/erase circuits are disabled, and the
device resets. Subsequent writes are ignored until V
is greater than V
proper signals to the control pins to prevent uninten-
tional writes when V
Write Pulse “Glitch” Protection
Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE# or
WE# do not initiate a write cycle.
Logical Inhibit
Write cycles are inhibited by holding any one of OE# =
V
CE# and WE# must be a logical zero while OE# is a
logical one.
Power-Up Write Inhibit
If WE# = CE# = V
device does not accept commands on the rising edge
of WE#. The internal state machine is automatically
reset to reading array data on power-up.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,
the device enters the Erase Suspend mode. The sys-
tem can read array data using the standard read tim-
ings, except that if it reads at an address within erase-
suspended sectors, the device outputs status data.
After completing a programming operation in the Erase
Suspend mode, the system may once again read array
data with the same exception. See “Erase Suspend/
Erase Resume Commands” for more information on
this mode.
The system must issue the reset command to re-en-
able the device for reading array data if DQ5 goes high,
or while in the autoselect mode. See the “Reset Com-
mand” section, next.
See also “Requirements for Reading Array Data” in the
“Device Bus Operations” section for more information.
The Read Operations table provides the read parame-
ters, and Read Operation Timings diagram shows the
timing diagram.
