Write Protect (WP#)
The Write Protect feature provides a hardware method
of protecting the four outermost sectors. This function
is provided by the WP# pin and overrides the previ-
ously discussed Sector Protection/Unprotection
method.
If the system asserts V
disables program and erase functions in the eight “out-
ermost” 4 Kword boot sectors.
If the system asserts V
reverts to whether the boot sectors were last set to be
protected or unprotected. That is, sector protection or
unprotection for these sectors depends on whether
they were last protected or unprotected using the
method described in
tion on page
Note that the WP# pin must not be left floating or un-
connected; inconsistent behavior of the device may re-
sult.
Low V
When V
accept 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 to reading array data. Subsequent writes
are ignored until V
must provide the proper signals to the control inputs to
prevent unintentional 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.

COMMON FLASH MEMORY INTERFACE
(CFI)
The Common Flash Interface (CFI) specification out-
lines device and host system software interrogation
handshake, which allows specific vendor-specified
software algorithms to be used for entire families of
devices. Software support can then be device-indepen-
dent, JEDEC ID-independent, and forward- and back-
ward-compatible for the specified flash device families.
Flash vendors can standardize their existing interfaces
for long-term compatibility.
This device enters the CFI Query mode when the
system writes the CFI Query command, 98h, to
address 55h any time the device is ready to read array
data. The system can read CFI information at the
addresses given in
CFI data, the system must write the reset command.
The system can also write the CFI query command
when the device is in the autoselect mode. The device
enters the CFI query mode, and the system can read
CFI data at the addresses given in
system must write the reset command to return the
device to the autoselect mode.

cation and CFI Publication 100, available via the AMD
