MX25U1633F  
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
MX25U1633F is 16Mb bits Serial NOR Flash memory, which is configured as 2,097,152 x 8 internally. When it is  
in four I/O mode, the structure becomes 4,194,304 bits x 4 or 8,388,608 bits x 2. MX25U1633F features a serial  
peripheral interface and software protocol allowing operation on a simple 3-wire bus while it is in single I/O mode.  
The three bus signals are a clock input (SCLK), a serial data input (SI), and a serial data output (SO). Serial access  
to the device is enabled by CS# input.  
When it is in two I/O read mode, the SI pin and SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin for address/dummy bits  
input and data output. When it is in four I/O read mode, the SI pin, SO pin, WP# pin and HOLD# pin become SIO0  
pin, SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin and SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data output.  
The MX25U1633F MXSMIO® (Serial Multi I/O) provides sequential read operation on the whole chip.  
After program/erase command is issued, auto program/erase algorithms which program/erase and verify the  
specified page or sector/block locations will be executed. Program command is executed on byte basis, or page (256  
bytes) basis, or word basis. Erase command is executed on 4K-byte sector, or 32KB block (32K-byte), or 64K-byte  
block, or whole chip basis.  
To provide user with ease of interface, a status register is included to indicate the status of the chip. The status read  
command can be issued to detect completion status of a program or erase operation via WIP bit.  
Advanced security features enhance the protection and security functions, please see security features section for  
more details.  
The MX25U1633F utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after  
100,000 program and erase cycles.

6. DATA PROTECTION  
During power transition, there may be some false system level signals which result in inadvertent erasure or  
programming. The device is designed to protect itself from these accidental write cycles.  
The state machine will be reset as standby mode automatically during power up. In addition, the control register  
architecture of the device constrains that the memory contents can only be changed after specific command  
sequences have completed successfully.  
In the following, there are several features to protect the system from the accidental write cycles during VCC power-  
up and power-down or from system noise.  
Power-on reset: to avoid sudden power switch by system power supply transition, the power-on reset may  
protect the Flash.  
• Valid command length checking: The command length will be checked whether it is at byte base and completed  
on byte boundary.  
• Write Enable (WREN) command: WREN command is required to set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL) before  
issuing other commands to change data.  
Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device is under protected from writing  
all commands except toggling the CS#. For more detail please see "10-24. Deep Power-down (DP)".  
Advanced Security Features: there are some protection and security features which protect content from  
inadvertent write and hostile access.  
I. Block lock protection  
- The Software Protected Mode (SPM) use (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits to allow part of memory to be protected  
as read only. The protected area definition is shown as "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes", the protected areas are  
more flexible which may protect various area by setting value of BP0-BP3 bits.  
- The Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) use WP#/SIO2 to protect the (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits and Status  
Register Write Protect (SRWD) bit. If the system goes into four I/O mode, the feature of HPM will be disabled.

II. Additional 8K-bit secured OTP for unique identifier: to provide 8K-bit One-Time Program area for setting device  
unique serial number - Which may be set by factory or system maker.  
The 8K-bit secured OTP area is composed of two rows of 4K-bit. Customer could lock the first 4K-bit OTP area  
and factory could lock the other.  
- Security register bit 0 indicates whether the second 4K-bit is locked by factory or not.  
- Customer may lock-down the customer lockable secured OTP by writing WRSCUR(write security register)  
command to set customer lock-down bit1 as "1". Please refer to "Table 9. Security Register Definition" for  
security register bit definition and "Table 3. 8K-bit Secured OTP Definition" for address range definition.  
- To program 8K-bit secured OTP by entering secured OTP mode (with ENSO command), and going through  
normal program procedure, and then exiting secured OTP mode by writing EXSO command.  
Note: Once lock-down whatever by factory or customer, the corresponding secured area cannot be changed any  
more. While in 8K-bit Secured OTP mode, array access is not allowed.

8. DEVICE OPERATION  
1. Before a command is issued, status register should be checked to ensure device is ready for the intended  
operation.  
2. When incorrect command is inputted to this device, it enters standby mode and remains in standby mode until  
next CS# falling edge. In standby mode, SO pin of the device is High-Z.  
3. When correct command is inputted to this device, it enters active mode and remains in active mode until next  
CS# rising edge.  
4. Input data is latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (SCLK) and data shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK.  
The difference of Serial mode 0 and mode 3 is shown as "Figure 1. Serial Modes Supported".  
5. For the following instructions: RDID, RDSR, RDCR, RDSCUR, READ, FAST_READ, DREAD, 2READ, 4READ,  
QREAD, RDSFDP, RES, REMS, the shifted-in instruction sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. After  
any bit of data being shifted out, the CS# can be high. For the following instructions: WREN, WRDI, WRSR, SE,

9. HOLD FEATURE  
HOLD# pin signal goes low to hold any serial communications with the device. The HOLD feature will not stop the  
operation of write status register, programming, or erasing in progress.  
The operation of HOLD requires Chip Select (CS#) keeping low and starts on falling edge of HOLD# pin signal  
while Serial Clock (SCLK) signal is being low (if Serial Clock signal is not being low, HOLD operation will not start  
until Serial Clock signal being low). The HOLD condition ends on the rising edge of HOLD# pin signal while Serial  
Clock(SCLK) signal is being low (if Serial Clock signal is not being low, HOLD operation will not end until Serial  
Clock being low).

During the HOLD operation, the Serial Data Output (SO) is high impedance when Hold# pin goes low and will keep  
high impedance until Hold# pin goes high. The Serial Data Input (SI) is don't care if both Serial Clock (SCLK) and  
Hold# pin goes low and will keep the state until SCLK goes low and Hold# pin goes high. If Chip Select (CS#) drives  
high during HOLD operation, it will reset the internal logic of the device. To re-start communication with chip, the  
HOLD# must be at high and CS# must be at low.  
Note: The HOLD feature is disabled during Quad I/O mode.

10-3. Read Identification (RDID)  
The RDID instruction is for reading the manufacturer ID of 1-byte and followed by Device ID of 2-byte. The Macronix  
Manufacturer ID and Device ID are listed as "Table 6. ID Definitions".  
The sequence of issuing RDID instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDID instruction code→24-bits ID data out  
on SO→ to end RDID operation can drive CS# to high at any time during data out.  
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, therefore there's no effect on  
the cycle of program/erase operation which is currently in progress. When CS# goes high, the device is at standby  
stage.

10-5. Read Electronic Manufacturer ID & Device ID (REMS)  
The REMS instruction returns both the JEDEC assigned manufacturer ID and the device ID. The Device ID values  
are listed in "Table 6. ID Definitions".  
The REMS instruction is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and sending the instruction code "90h" followed by two  
dummy bytes and one address byte (A7~A0). After which the manufacturer ID for Macronix (C2h) and the device  
ID are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK with the most significant bit (MSB) first. If the address byte is 00h,  
the manufacturer ID will be output first, followed by the device ID. If the address byte is 01h, then the device ID will  
be output first, followed by the manufacturer ID. While CS# is low, the manufacturer and device IDs can be read  
continuously, alternating from one to the other. The instruction is completed by driving CS# high.

10-6. ID Read  
User can execute this ID Read instruction to identify the Device ID and Manufacturer ID. The sequence of issuing  
RDID instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDID instruction code→24-bits ID data out on SO→ to end RDID  
operation can drive CS# to high at any time during data out.  
After the command cycle, the device will immediately output data on the falling edge of SCLK. The manufacturer ID,  
memory type, and device ID data byte will be output continuously, until the CS# goes high.  
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, therefore there's no effect on  
the cycle of program/erase operation which is currently in progress. When CS# goes high, the device is at standby  
stage.

Status Register  
The definition of the status register bits is as below:  
WIP bit. The Write in Progress (WIP) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is busy in program/erase/write  
status register progress. When WIP bit sets to 1, which means the device is busy in program/erase/write status  
register progress. When WIP bit sets to 0, which means the device is not in progress of program/erase/write status  
register cycle.  
WEL bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is a volatile bit that is set to “1” by the WREN instruction. WEL needs to be  
set to “1” before the device can accept program and erase instructions, otherwise the program and erase instructions  
are ignored. WEL automatically clears to “0” when a program or erase operation completes. To ensure that both WIP  
and WEL are “0” and the device is ready for the next program or erase operation, it is recommended that WIP be  
confirmed to be “0” before checking that WEL is also “0”. If a program or erase instruction is applied to a protected  
memory area, the instruction will be ignored and WEL will clear to “0”.  
BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits, non-volatile bits, indicate the protected area (as  
defined in "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes") of the device to against the program/erase instruction without hardware  
protection mode being set. To write the Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits requires the Write Status Register (WRSR)  
instruction to be executed. Those bits define the protected area of the memory to against Page Program (PP), Sector  
Erase (SE), Block Erase (BE/BE32K) and Chip Erase (CE) instructions (only if Block Protect bits (BP3:BP0) set to 0,  
the CE instruction can be executed). The BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits are "0" as default, which is un-protected.  
QE bit. The Quad Enable (QE) bit is a non-volatile bit with a factory default of “0”. When QE is “0”, Quad mode  
commands are ignored; pins WP#/SIO2 and HOLD#/SIO3 function as WP# and HOLD#, respectively. When QE is  
“1”, Quad mode is enabled and Quad mode commands are supported along with Single and Dual mode commands.  
Pins WP#/SIO2 and HOLD#/SIO3 function as SIO2 and SIO3, respectively, and their alternate pin functions are  
disabled. Enabling Quad mode also disables the HPM and HOLD features.  
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit, non-volatile bit, is operated together with Write Protection  
(WP#/SIO2) pin for providing hardware protection mode. The hardware protection mode requires SRWD sets to 1 and  
WP#/SIO2 pin signal is low stage. In the hardware protection mode, the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is  
no longer accepted for execution and the SRWD bit and Block Protect bits (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) are read only. The  
SRWD bit defaults to be "0".

Configuration Register  
The Configuration Register is able to change the default status of Flash memory. Flash memory will be configured  
after the CR bit is set.  
TB bit  
The Top/Bottom (TB) bit is a non-volatile OTP bit. The Top/Bottom (TB) bit is used to configure the Block Protect  
area by BP bit (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0), starting from TOP or Bottom of the memory array. The TB bit is defaulted as  
“0”, which means Top area protect. When it is set as “1”, the protect area will change to Bottom area of the memory  
device. To write the TB bit requires the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction to be executed.

10-9. Write Status Register (WRSR)  
The WRSR instruction is for changing the values of Status Register Bits and Configuration Register Bits. Before  
sending WRSR instruction, the Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be decoded and executed to set the Write  
Enable Latch (WEL) bit in advance. The WRSR instruction can change the value of Block Protect (BP3, BP2,  
BP1, BP0) bits to define the protected area of memory (as shown in "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes"). The WRSR  
also can set or reset the Quad enable (QE) bit and set or reset the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit in  
accordance with Write Protection (WP#/SIO2) pin signal, but has no effect on bit1(WEL) and bit0 (WIP) of the status  
register. The WRSR instruction cannot be executed once the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) is entered.  
The sequence of issuing WRSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending WRSR instruction code→ Status Register  
data on SI→CS# goes high.  
The CS# must go high exactly at the 8 bits or 16 bits data boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and  
not executed. The self-timed Write Status Register cycle time (tW) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes  
high. The Write in Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked during the Write Status Register cycle is in progress. The  
WIP sets 1 during the tW timing, and sets 0 when Write Status Register Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable  
Latch (WEL) bit is reset. For more detail please check "Table 16. AC Characteristics".

Software Protected Mode (SPM):  
-
When SRWD bit=0, no matter WP#/SIO2 is low or high, the WREN instruction may set the WEL bit and can  
change the values of SRWD, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0. The protected area, which is defined by BP3, BP2, BP1,  
BP0, is at software protected mode (SPM).  
-
When SRWD bit=1 and WP#/SIO2 is high, the WREN instruction may set the WEL bit can change the values  
of SRWD, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0. The protected area, which is defined by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0, is at software  
protected mode (SPM)  
Note:  
If SRWD bit=1 but WP#/SIO2 is low, it is impossible to write the Status Register even if the WEL bit has previously  
been set. It is rejected to write the Status Register and not be executed.  
Hardware Protected Mode (HPM):  
-
When SRWD bit=1, and then WP#/SIO2 is low (or WP#/SIO2 is low before SRWD bit=1), it enters the hardware  
protected mode (HPM). The data of the protected area is protected by software protected mode by BP3, BP2,  
BP1, BP0 and hardware protected mode by the WP#/SIO2 to against data modification.  
Note:  
To exit the hardware protected mode requires WP#/SIO2 driving high once the hardware protected mode is entered.  
If the WP#/SIO2 pin is permanently connected to high, the hardware protected mode can never be entered; only can  
use software protected mode via BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0.

10-10. Read Data Bytes (READ)  
The read instruction is for reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and data shifts out on  
the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fR. The first address byte can be at any location. The address  
is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can  
be read out at a single READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been  
reached.  
The sequence of issuing READ instruction is: CS# goes low→sending READ instruction code→ 3-byte address on  
SI→ data out on SO→to end READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.

10-11.Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ)  
The FAST_READ instruction is for quickly reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and  
data of each bit shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fC. The first address byte can be at  
any location. The address is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out,  
so the whole memory can be read out at a single FAST_READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when  
the highest address has been reached.  
The sequence of issuing FAST_READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending FAST_READ instruction code→  
3-byte address on SI→1-dummy byte (default) address on SI→ data out on SO→ to end FAST_READ operation  
can use CS# to high at any time during data out.  
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, FAST_READ instruction is rejected without any  
impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

The 4READ instruction enable quad throughput of Serial NOR Flash in read mode. A Quad Enable (QE) bit of status  
Register must be set to "1" before sending the 4READ instruction. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK,  
and data of every four bits (interleave on 4 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency  
fQ. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased to the next higher address  
after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single 4READ instruction. The address  
counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing 4READ instruction, the following  
address/dummy/data out will perform as 4-bit instead of previous 1-bit.  
The sequence of issuing 4READ instruction is: CS# goes low

24-bit address  
interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 2+4 dummy cycles data out interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 to  
end 4READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.  
Another sequence of issuing 4READ instruction especially useful in random access is : CS# goes low sending  
4READ instruction 3-bytes address interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 performance enhance toggling  
bit P[7:0] 4 dummy cycles data out still CS# goes high  
CS# goes low (reduce 4READ instruction) 24-bit  
random access address.  
In the performance-enhancing mode, P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0] ; likewise P[7:0]=A5h, 5Ah, F0h or 0Fh  
can make this mode continue and reduce the next 4READ instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with P[3:0];  
likewise P[7:0]=FFh,00h,AAh or 55h and afterwards CS# is raised and then lowered, the system then will escape  
from performance enhance mode and return to normal operation.  
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, 4READ instruction is rejected without any impact  
on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

10-18. Sector Erase (SE)  
The Sector Erase (SE) instruction is for erasing the data of the chosen sector to be "1". The instruction is used  
for any 4K-byte sector. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit  
before sending the Sector Erase (SE). Any address of the sector (Please refer to "Table 4. Memory Organization")  
is a valid address for Sector Erase (SE) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the latest  
eighth of address byte been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.  
Address bits [Am-A12] (Am is the most significant address) select the sector address.  
The sequence of issuing SE instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending SE instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→  
CS# goes high.  
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
The self-timed Sector Erase Cycle time (tSE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in  
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked during the Sector Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the  
tSE timing, and sets 0 when Sector Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If  
the sector is protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Sector Erase (SE) instruction will not be executed on the  
sector.

10-19. Block Erase (BE32K)  
The Block Erase (BE32K) instruction is for erasing the data of the chosen block to be "1". The instruction is used  
for 32K-byte block erase operation. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be executed to set the Write Enable  
Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Block Erase (BE32K). Any address of the block (see "Table 4. Memory  
Organization") is a valid address for Block Erase (BE32K) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte  
boundary (the least significant bit of address byte has been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected  
and not executed.  
The sequence of issuing BE32K instruction is: CS# goes low → sending BE32K instruction code → 3-byte  
address on SI → CS# goes high.  
The SIO[3:1] are don't care.  
The self-timed Block Erase Cycle time (tBE32K) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write  
in Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked while the Block Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets during  
the tBE32K timing, and clears when Block Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is  
cleared. If the block is protected by BP3~0, the array data will be protected (no change) and the WEL bit still be  
reset.

The Block Erase (BE) instruction is for erasing the data of the chosen block to be "1". The instruction is used for  
64K-byte block erase operation. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL)  
bit before sending the Block Erase (BE). Any address of the block (Please refer to "Table 4. Memory Organization")  
is a valid address for Block Erase (BE) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the latest  
eighth of address byte been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.  
The sequence of issuing BE instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending BE instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→  
CS# goes high.  
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
The self-timed Block Erase Cycle time (tBE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in  
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked during the Block Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the tBE  
timing, and sets 0 when Block Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If the block

10-22. Page Program (PP)  
The Page Program (PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN) instruction  
must be executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Page Program (PP). The device  
programs only the last 256 data bytes sent to the device. The last address byte (the 8 least significant address  
bits, A7-A0) should be set to 0 for 256 bytes page program. If A7-A0 are not all zero, transmitted data that exceed  
page length are programmed from the starting address (24-bit address that last 8 bit are all 0) of currently selected  
page. If the data bytes sent to the device exceeds 256, the last 256 data byte is programmed at the request page  
and previous data will be disregarded. If the data bytes sent to the device has not exceeded 256, the data will be  
programmed at the request address of the page. There will be no effort on the other data bytes of the same page.  
The sequence of issuing PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→ at  
least 1-byte on data on SI→ CS# goes high.  
The CS# must be kept low during the whole Page Program cycle; The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the  
latest eighth bit of data being latched in), otherwise the instruction will be rejected and will not be executed.  
The self-timed Page Program Cycle time (tPP) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in  
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked during the Page Program cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the  
tPP timing, and sets 0 when Page Program Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If the  
page is protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Page Program (PP) instruction will not be executed.

10-23. 4 x I/O Page Program (4PP)  
The Quad Page Program (4PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN)  
instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit and Quad Enable (QE) bit must be set to "1" before  
sending the Quad Page Program (4PP). The Quad Page Programming takes four pins: SIO0, SIO1, SIO2, and  
SIO3 as address and data input, which can improve programmer performance and the effectiveness of application.  
The 4PP operation frequency supports as fast as f4PP. The other function descriptions are as same as standard  
page program.  
The sequence of issuing 4PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending 4PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on  
SIO[3:0]→ at least 1-byte on data on SIO[3:0]→CS# goes high.

10-24. Deep Power-down (DP)  
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction places the device into a minimum power consumption state, Deep Power  
down mode, in which the quiescent current is reduced from ISB1 to ISB2.  
The sequence of issuing DP instruction: CS# goes low→ send DP instruction code→ CS# goes high. The CS# must  
go high at the byte boundary; otherwise the instruction will not be executed. SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
After CS# goes high there is a delay of tDP before the device transitions from Stand-by mode to Deep Power-down  
mode and the current reduces from ISB1 to ISB2. Once in Deep Power-down mode, all instructions will be ignored.  
CS# must not be pulsed low until the device has been in Deep Power-down mode for a minimum of tDPDD. The  
device exits Deep Power-down mode and returns to Stand-by mode if CS# pulses low for tCRDP or if the device is  
power-cycled or hardware reset. After CS# goes high, there is a delay of tRDP before the device transitions from  
Deep Power-down mode back to Stand-by mode.

10-25. Enter Secured OTP (ENSO)  
The ENSO instruction is for entering the additional 8K-bit secured OTP mode. The additional 8K-bit secured OTP is  
independent from main array, which may use to store unique serial number for system identifier. After entering the  
Secured OTP mode, and then follow standard read or program procedure to read out the data or update data. The  
Secured OTP data cannot be updated again once it is lock-down.  
The sequence of issuing ENSO instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending ENSO instruction to enter Secured OTP  
mode→ CS# goes high.  
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
Please note that WRSR/WRSCUR commands are not acceptable during the access of secure OTP region, once  
security OTP is lock down, only read related commands are valid.  
10-26. Exit Secured OTP (EXSO)  
The EXSO instruction is for exiting the additional 8K-bit secured OTP mode.  
The sequence of issuing EXSO instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending EXSO instruction to exit Secured OTP  
mode→ CS# goes high.  
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
10-27. Read Security Register (RDSCUR)  
The RDSCUR instruction is for reading the value of Security Register bits. The Read Security Register can be read  
at any time (even in program/erase/write status register/write security register condition) and continuously.  
The sequence of issuing RDSCUR instruction is : CS# goes low→sending RDSCUR instruction→Security Register  
data out on SO→ CS# goes high.  
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
The definition of the Security Register bits is as below:  
Secured OTP Indicator bit. The Secured OTP indicator bit shows the secured OTP area is locked by factory before  
ex- factory or not. When it is "0", it indicates non-factory lock; "1" indicates factory-lock.  
Lock-down Secured OTP (LDSO) bit. By writing WRSCUR instruction, the LDSO bit may be set to "1" for  
customer lock-down purpose. However, once the bit is set to "1" (lock-down), the LDSO bit and the 1st 4K-bit  
Secured OTP area cannot be update any more. While it is in 8K-bit secured OTP mode, main array access is not  
allowed.  
Program Suspend Status bit. Program Suspend Bit (PSB) indicates the status of Program Suspend operation.  
Users may use PSB to identify the state of flash memory. After the flash memory is suspended by Program Suspend  
command, PSB is set to "1". PSB is cleared to "0" after program operation resumes.  
Erase Suspend Status bit. Erase Suspend Bit (ESB) indicates the status of Erase Suspend operation. Users may  
use ESB to identify the state of flash memory. After the flash memory is suspended by Erase Suspend command,  
ESB is set to "1". ESB is cleared to "0" after erase operation resumes.

10-29. Program Suspend and Erase Suspend  
The Suspend instruction interrupts a Page Program, Sector Erase, or Block Erase operation to allow access to  
the memory array. After the program or erase operation has entered the suspended state, the memory array can  
be read except for the page being programmed or the sector or block being erased ("Table 10. Readable Area of  
Memory While a Program or Erase Operation is Suspended").

When the Serial NOR Flash receives the Suspend instruction, there is a latency of tPSL or tESL ("Figure 35.  
Suspend to Read/Program Latency") before the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit clears to “0” and the PSB or ESB sets  
to “1”, after which the device is ready to accept one of the commands listed in "Table 11. Acceptable Commands  
During Program/Erase Suspend after tPSL/tESL" (e.g. FAST READ). Refer to "Table 16. AC Characteristics" for  
tPSL and tESL timings.  
"Table 12. Acceptable Commands During Suspend (tPSL/tESL not required)" lists the commands for which the tPSL  
and tESL latencies do not apply. For example, RDSR, RDSCUR, RSTEN, and RST can be issued at any time after  
the Suspend instruction.  
Security Register bit 2 (PSB) and bit 3 (ESB) can be read to check the suspend status. The PSB (Program Suspend  
Bit) sets to “1” when a program operation is suspended. The ESB (Erase Suspend Bit) sets to “1” when an erase  
operation is suspended. The PSB or ESB clears to “0” when the program or erase operation is resumed.

Erase Suspend to Program  
The “Erase Suspend to Program” feature allows Page Programming while an erase operation is suspended. Page  
Programming is permitted in any unprotected memory except within the sector of a suspended Sector Erase  
operation or within the block of a suspended Block Erase operation. The Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be  
issued before any Page Program instruction.  
A Page Program operation initiated within a suspended erase cannot itself be suspended and must be allowed to  
finish before the suspended erase can be resumed. The Status Register can be polled to determine the status of  
the Page Program operation. The WEL and WIP bits of the Status Register will remain “1” while the Page Program  
operation is in progress and will both clear to “0” when the Page Program operation completes.

10-30. Program Resume and Erase Resume  
The Resume instruction resumes a suspended Page Program, Sector Erase, or Block Erase operation. Before  
issuing the Resume instruction to restart a suspended erase operation, make sure that there is no Page Program  
operation in progress.  
Immediately after the Serial NOR Flash receives the Resume instruction, the WEL and WIP bits are set to “1” and  
the PSB or ESB is cleared to “0”. The program or erase operation will continue until finished ("Figure 36. Resume to  
Read Latency") or until another Suspend instruction is received. A resume-to-suspend latency of tPRS or tERS must  
be observed before issuing another Suspend instruction ("Figure 34. Resume to Suspend Latency").  
Please note that the Resume instruction will be ignored if the Serial NOR Flash is in “Performance Enhance Mode”.  
Make sure the Serial NOR Flash is not in “Performance Enhance Mode” before issuing the Resume instruction.

10-31. No Operation (NOP)  
The "No Operation" command is only able to terminate the Reset Enable (RSTEN) command and will not affect any  
other command.  
The SIO[3:1] are don't care.  
10-32. Software Reset (Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST))  
The Software Reset operation combines two instructions: Reset-Enable (RSTEN) command and Reset (RST)  
command. It returns the device to a standby mode. All the volatile bits and settings will be cleared then, which  
makes the device return to the default status as power on.  
To execute Reset command (RST), the Reset-Enable (RSTEN) command must be executed first to perform the  
Reset operation. If there is any other command to interrupt after the Reset-Enable command, the Reset-Enable will  
be invalid.  
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".  
If the Reset command is executed during program or erase operation, the operation will be disabled, the data under  
processing could be damaged or lost.  
The reset time is different depending on the last operation. Longer latency time is required to recover from a  
program operation than from other operations.

10-33. High Voltage Operation  
The flash device supports High Voltage Operation. This opeartion allows user can have better performance in  
following Program/Erase operation.  
To enable High Voltage Opeartion, WP#/SIO2 need to apply Vhv during whole operation. If the voltage can not  
sustain in Vhv range, the Program/Erase opeation might be failed. CS# can only go low after tVSL1+tVhv +tVhv2  
timing during High Voltage Operation. WP# can only start to go low after whole Erase/Program Operation has been  
done.  
To check the operation status, user may check the status of WIP bit.

10-34. Read SFDP Mode (RDSFDP)  
The Serial Flash Discoverable Parameter (SFDP) standard provides a consistent method of describing the functional  
and feature capabilities of serial flash devices in a standard set of internal parameter tables. These parameter tables  
can be interrogated by host system software to enable adjustments needed to accommodate divergent features  
from multiple vendors. The concept is similar to the one found in the Introduction of JEDEC Standard, JESD68 on  
CFI.  
The sequence of issuing RDSFDP instruction is same as FAST_READ: CS# goes low→send RDSFDP instruction  
(5Ah)→send 3 address bytes on SI pin→send 1 dummy byte on SI pin→read SFDP code on SO→to end RDSFDP  
operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.  
SFDP is a JEDEC Standard, JESD216B.  
For SFDP register values detail, please contact local Macronix sales channel for Application Note.

11. POWER-ON STATE  
The device is at the following states after power-up:  
- Standby mode (please note it is not deep power-down mode)  
- Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset  
The device must not be selected during power-up and power-down stage until the VCC reaches the following levels:  
- VCC minimum at power-up stage and then after a delay of tVSL  
- GND at power-down  
Please note that a pull-up resistor on CS# may ensure a safe and proper power-up/down level.  
An internal power-on reset (POR) circuit may protect the device from data corruption and inadvertent data change  
during power up state. When VCC is lower than VWI (POR threshold voltage value), the internal logic is reset and  
the flash device has no response to any command.  
For further protection on the device, if the VCC does not reach the VCC minimum level, the correct operation is not  
guaranteed. The write, erase, and program command should be sent after the below time delay:  
- tVSL after VCC reached VCC minimum level  
The device can accept read command after VCC reached VCC minimum and a time delay of tVSL.  
Please refer to the "Figure 48. Power-up Timing".  
Note:  
- To stabilize the VCC level, the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to package pins is  
recommended. (generally around 0.1uF)  
- At power-down stage, the VCC drops below VWI level, all operations are disable and device has no response to  
any command. The data corruption might occur during this stage if a write, program, erase cycle is in progress.

3. Only applicable as a constraint for a WRSR instruction when SRWD is set at 1.  
4. Program operation may be interrupted as often as system request. The minimum timing of tPRS must be  
observed before issuing the next program suspend command. However, in order for an Program operation to  
make progress, tPRS ≥ 100us must be included in resume-to-suspend loop(s). Not 100% tested.  
5. Erase operation may be interrupted as often as system request. The minimum timing of tERS must be observed  
before issuing the next erase suspend command. However, in order for an Erase operation to make progress,  
tERS ≥ 280us must be included in resume-to-suspend loop(s). The details are described in Macronix application  
notes. Not 100% tested.  
6. If the address range is within 4Mb, the 4READ/QREAD clock rate could achieve to 16MHz for 4READ/QREAD  
operation. If user wants to keep 4READ/QREAD at 16MHz for address range that is more than 4Mb, it is  
necessary to re-issue 4READ/QREAD command again after each 4Mb boundary.  
7. Test condition is shown as "Figure 43. Input Test Waveforms and Measurement Level", "Figure 44. Output  
Loading".  
8. WRSR speed max. is 33MHz .  
9. Latency time is required to complete Erase/Program Suspend operation until WIP bit is "0".

At Device Power-Up and Power-Down  
AC timing illustrated in "Figure 46. AC Timing at Device Power-Up" and "Figure 47. Power-Down Sequence" are  
for the supply voltages and the control signals at device power-up and power-down. If the timing in the figures is  
ignored, the device will not operate correctly.  
During power-up and power-down, CS# needs to follow the voltage applied on VCC to keep the device not to be  
selected. The CS# can be driven low when VCC reach Vcc(min.) and wait a period of tVSL.
