2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
MX25U3235F is 32Mb bits serial Flash memory, which is configured as 4,194,304 x 8 internally. When it is in two  
or four I/O mode, the structure becomes 16,777,216 bits x 2 or 8,388,608 bits x 4. MX25U6435F is 64Mb bits serial  
Flash memory, which is configured as 8,388,608 x 8 internally. When it is in two or four I/O mode, the structure be-  
comes 33,554,432 bits x 2 or 16,777,216 bits x 4. MX25U3235F/MX25U6435F feature 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 ena-  
bled 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 in-  
put and data output. When it is in four I/O read mode, the SI pin, SO pin, WP# pin and Reset# pin become SIO0  
pin, SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin and SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data output.  
The MX25U3235F/MX25U6435F MXSMIOTM (Serial Multi I/O) provides sequential read operation on 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 for erase command is executed on sector (4K-byte), block (32K-byte), or block (64K-byte),  
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.  
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode and draws less than 30uA DC cur-  
rent.  
The MX25U3235F/MX25U6435F utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory con-  
tents even after 100,000 program and erase cycles.

6. DATA PROTECTION  
The device is designed to offer protection against accidental erasure or programming caused by spurious system  
level signals that may exist during power transition. During power up the device automatically resets the state ma-  
chine in the Read mode. In addition, with its control register architecture, alteration of the memory contents only oc-  
curs after successful completion of specific command sequences. The device also incorporates several features to  
prevent inadvertent write cycles resulting from VCC power-up and power-down transition or system noise.  
Power-on reset and tPUW: to avoid sudden power switch by system power supply transition, the power-on reset  
and tPUW (internal timer) 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  
other command to change data. The WEL bit will return to reset stage under following situation:  
- Power-up  
- Reset# pin driven low  
- Write Disable (WRDI) command completion  
- Write Status Register (WRSR) command completion  
- Page Program (PP) command completion  
- Sector Erase (SE) command completion  
- Block Erase 32KB (BE32K) command completion  
- Block Erase (BE) command completion  
- Chip Erase (CE) command completion  
- Program/Erase Suspend  
- Softreset command completion  
- Write Security Register (WRSCUR) command completion  
- Write Protection Selection (WPSEL) command completion  
Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device is under protected from writing  
all commands except Release from deep power down mode command (RDP) and Read Electronic Signature  
command (RES) and softreset command.  
Advanced Security Features: there are some protection and security features which protect content from inad-  
vertent 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 Proteced Mode (HPM) use WP#/SIO2 to protect the (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits and Status Reg-  
ister Write Protect bit.  
- In four I/O and QPI mode, the feature of HPM will be disabled.

8. DEVICE OPERATION  
1. Before a command is issued, status register should be checked to ensure device is ready for the intended op-  
eration.  
2. When incorrect command is inputted to this device, this device becomes standby mode and keeps the standby  
mode until next CS# falling edge. In standby mode, SO pin of this device should be High-Z.  
3. When correct command is inputted to this device, this device becomes active mode and keeps the 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 "Serial Modes Supported".  
5. For the following instructions: RDID, RDSR, RDSCUR, READ, FAST_READ, 2READ, 4READ, W4READ, RDS-  
FDP, RES, REMS, QPIID, RDBLOCK, the shifted-in instruction sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. Af-  
ter any bit of data being shifted out, the CS# can be high. For the following instructions: WREN, WRDI, WRSR,  
SE, BE32K, BE, CE, PP, 4PP, DP, ENSO, EXSO, WRSCUR, WPSEL, SBLK, SBULK, GBULK, SUSPEND,  
RESUME, NOP, RSTEN, RST, EQIO, RSTQIO the CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary; otherwise,  
the instruction will be rejected and not executed.  
6. During the progress of Write Status Register, Program, Erase operation, to access the memory array is neglect-  
ed and not affect the current operation of Write Status Register, Program, Erase.

transmitting. CPHA indicates clock phase. The combination of CPOL bit and CPHA bit decides which Serial mode is  
supported.

8-1. Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) Read Mode  
QPI protocol enables user to take full advantage of Quad I/O Serial Flash by providing the Quad I/O interface in  
command cycles, address cycles and as well as data output cycles.

Reset QPI (RSTQIO)  
The Reset QPI instruction, F5H, resets the device to SPI protocol operation. To execute a Reset QPI operation, the  
host drives CS# low, sends the Reset QPI command cycle (F5h) then, drives CS# high.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
Note:  
For EQIO/RSTQIO/SBL CS# high width has to follow "write spec" tSHSL as 30ns for next instruction.

9-1. Write Enable (WREN)  
The Write Enable (WREN) instruction is for setting Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. For those instructions like PP, 4PP,  
SE, BE32K, BE, CE, and WRSR, which are intended to change the device content WEL bit should be set every time  
after the WREN instruction setting the WEL bit.  
The sequence of issuing WREN instruction is: CS# goes low→sending WREN instruction code→ CS# goes high.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.

9-2. Write Disable (WRDI)  
The Write Disable (WRDI) instruction is to reset Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit.

Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
The WEL bit is reset by following situations:  
- Power-up  
- Reset# pin driven low  
- Completion of Write Disable (WRDI) instruction  
- Completion of Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction  
- Completion of Page Program (PP) instruction

9-3. Read Identification (RDID)  
The RDID instruction is for reading the manufacturer ID of 1-byte and followed by Device ID of 2-byte. The Macro-  
nix 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.

9-4. Release from Deep Power-down (RDP), Read Electronic Signature (RES)  
The Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (CS#) High. When Chip  
Select (CS#) is driven High, the device is put in the Stand-by Power mode. If the device was not previously in the  
Deep Power-down mode, the transition to the Stand-by Power mode is immediate. If the device was previously in  
the Deep Power-down mode, the transition to the Stand-by Power mode is delayed by tRES2, and Chip Select (CS#)  
must remain High for at least tRES2(max), as specified in Table 16. AC Characteristics. Once in the Stand-by Power  
mode, the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and execute instructions. The RDP instruction  
is only for releasing from Deep Power Down Mode. Reset# pin goes low will release the Flash from deep power  
down mode.  
RES instruction is for reading out the old style of 8-bit Electronic Signature, whose values are shown as Table 6 ID  
Definitions. This is not the same as RDID instruction. It is not recommended to use for new design. For new design,  
please use RDID instruction.  
Even in Deep power-down mode, the RDP and RES are also allowed to be executed, only except the device is in  
progress of program/erase/write cycle; there's no effect on the current program/erase/write cycle in progress.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
The RES instruction is ended by CS# goes high after the ID been read out at least once. The ID outputs repeat-  
edly if continuously send the additional clock cycles on SCLK while CS# is at low. If the device was not previously  
in Deep Power-down mode, the device transition to standby mode is immediate. If the device was previously in  
Deep Power-down mode, there's a delay of tRES2 to transit to standby mode, and CS# must remain to high at least  
tRES2(max). Once in the standby mode, the device waits to be selected, so it can be receive, decode, and execute  
instruction.

9-5. Read Electronic Manufacturer ID & Device ID (REMS)  
The REMS instruction is an alternative to the Release from Power-down/Device ID instruction that provides both the  
JEDEC assigned manufacturer ID and the specific device ID.  
The REMS instruction is very similar to the Release from Power-down/Device ID instruction. The instruction is initi-  
ated by driving the CS# pin low and shift the instruction code "90h" followed by two dummy bytes and one bytes ad-  
dress (A7~A0). After which, the Manufacturer ID for Macronix (C2h) and the Device ID are shifted out on the falling  
edge of SCLK with most significant bit (MSB) first. The Device ID values are listed in Table 6 of ID Definitions. If the  
one-byte address is initially set to 01h, then the device ID will be read first and then followed by the Manufacturer  
ID. The Manufacturer and Device IDs can be read continuously, alternating from one to the other. The instruction is  
completed by driving CS# high.

9-6. QPI ID Read (QPIID)  
The QPIID Read instruction identifies the devices as MX25U3235F/MX25U6435F and manufacturer as Macronix.  
The sequence of issue QPIID instruction is CS# goes low→sending QPI ID instruction→Data out on SO→CS# goes  
high. Most significant bit (MSB) first.  
Immediately following the command cycle the device outputs data on the falling edge of the SCLK signal. The data  
output stream is continuous until terminated by a low-to-high transition of CS#. The device outputs three bytes of  
data: "Manufactory ID, Memory type and Memory density".

9-7. Read Status Register (RDSR)  
The RDSR instruction is for reading Status Register Bits. The Read Status Register can be read at any time (even  
in program/erase/write status register condition). It is recommended to check the Write in Progress (WIP) bit before  
sending a new instruction when a program, erase, or write status register operation is in progress.  
The sequence of issuing RDSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDSR instruction code→ Status Register data  
out on SO.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.

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 sta-  
tus 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, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is set to internal write enable  
latch. When WEL bit sets to 1, which means the internal write enable latch is set, the device can accept program/  
erase/write status register instruction. When WEL bit sets to 0, which means no internal write enable latch; the device  
will not accept program/erase/write status register instruction. The program/erase command will be ignored if it is ap-  
plied to a protected memory area. To ensure both WIP bit & WEL bit are both set to 0 and available for next program/  
erase/operations, WIP bit needs to be confirm to be 0 before polling WEL bit. After WIP bit confirmed, WEL bit needs  
to be confirmed as 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) 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 ex-  
ecuted. Those bits define the protected area of the memory to against Page Program (PP), Sector Erase (SE), Block  
Erase 32KB (BE32K), Block Erase (BE) 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, non-volatile bit, while it is "0" (factory default), it performs non-Quad and WP#,  
RESET# are enable. While QE is "1", it performs Quad I/O mode and WP#, RESET# are disabled. In the other  
word, if the system goes into four I/O mode (QE=1), the feature of HPM and RESET will be disabled.  
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".

9-8. 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). 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.  
If Reset# goes low during WRSR execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC (Recovery  
Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of WRSR is not guaranteed in this situation.  
The CS# must go high exactly at the 8 bites 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.

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 pro-  
tected 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.  
If the system enter QPI or set QE=1, the feature of HPM will be disabled.

9-9. 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.

9-10. 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.  
Read on SPI Mode 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.  
Read on QPI Mode The sequence of issuing FAST_READ instruction in QPI mode is: CS# goes low→ sending  
FAST_READ instruction, 2 cycles→ 24-bit address interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0→4 dummy cycles→data  
out interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0→ to end QPI FAST_READ operation can use CS# to high at any time  
during data out.  
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]; like-  
wise 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, FAST_READ instruction is rejected without any im-  
pact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

9-11. 2 x I/O Read Mode (2READ)  
The 2READ instruction enable double throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising  
edge of SCLK, and data of every two bits (interleave on 2 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maxi-  
mum frequency fT. 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 2READ instruc-  
tion. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing 2READ instruc-  
tion, the following address/dummy/data out will perform as 2-bit instead of previous 1-bit.  
The sequence of issuing 2READ instruction is: CS# goes low sending 2READ instruction 24-bit address inter-  
leave on SIO1 & SIO0 4 dummy cycles on SIO1 & SIO0 data out interleave on SIO1 & SIO0 to end 2READ  
operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.  
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, 2READ instruction is rejected without any impact  
on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

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 af-  
ter 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.  
4 x I/O Read on SPI Mode (4READ) The sequence of issuing 4READ instruction is: CS# goes low sending  
4READ instruction 24-bit address interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 2+4 dummy cycles data out inter-  
leave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 to end 4READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.  
4 x I/O Read on QPI Mode (4READ) The 4READ instruction also support on QPI command mode. The sequence of  
issuing 4READ instruction QPI mode is: CS# goes low sending 4READ instruction 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 4 READ instruction especially useful in random access is : CS# goes low sending  
4 READ 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 4 Read instruction) 24-bit ran-  
dom 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]; like-  
wise 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.

9-14. Performance Enhance Mode  
The device could waive the command cycle bits if the two cycle bits after address cycle toggles.  
Performance enhance mode is supported in both SPI and QPI mode.  
In QPI mode, “EBh” “0Bh” and SPI “EBh” “E7h” commands support enhance mode. The performance enhance  
mode is not supported in dual I/O mode.  
After entering enhance mode, following CS# go high, the device will stay in the read mode and treat CS# go low of  
the first clock as address instead of command cycle.  
To exit enhance mode, a new fast read command whose first two dummy cycles is not toggle then exit. Or issue  
”FFh” command to exit enhance mode.

9-15. Performance Enhance Mode Reset (FFh)  
To conduct the Performance Enhance Mode Reset operation in SPI mode, FFh command code, 8 clocks, should be  
issued in 1I/O sequence. In QPI Mode, FFFFFFFFh command code, 8 clocks, in 4I/O should be issued.  
If the system controller is being Reset during operation, the flash device will return to the standard SPI operation.  
Upon Reset of main chip, SPI instruction would be issued from the system. Instructions like Read ID (9Fh) or Fast  
Read (0Bh) would be issued.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.

9-16. 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 (see 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.  
If Reset# goes low during SE execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC (Recovery  
Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of SE is not guaranteed in this situation.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
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.

9-17. 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 execute 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 latest eighth  
of address byte 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.  
If Reset# goes low during BE32K execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC (Recovery  
Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of BE32K is not guaranteed in this situation.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
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 during the Block Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the  
tBE32K timing, and sets 0 when Block Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If  
the block is protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Block Erase (tBE32K) instruction will not be executed on the  
block.

9-18. Block Erase (BE)  
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.  
If Reset# goes low during BE execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC (Recovery  
Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of BE is not guaranteed in this situation.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
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  
is protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Block Erase (BE) instruction will not be executed on the block.

9-19. Chip Erase (CE)  
The Chip Erase (CE) instruction is for erasing the data of the whole chip to be "1". A Write Enable (WREN) instruc-  
tion must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Chip Erase (CE). The CS# must go  
high exactly at the byte boundary, otherwise the instruction will be rejected and not executed.  
The sequence of issuing CE instruction is: CS# goes low→sending CE instruction code→CS# goes high.  
If Reset# goes low during CE execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC (Recovery  
Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of CE is not guaranteed in this situation.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
The self-timed Chip Erase Cycle time (tCE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in  
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked during the Chip Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the tCE  
timing, and sets 0 when Chip Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If the chip is  
protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Chip Erase (CE) instruction will not be executed. It will be only execut-  
ed when BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 all set to "0".

9-20. 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 pro-  
grams only the last 256 data bytes sent to the device. If the entire 256 data bytes are going to be programmed, A7-  
A0 (The eight least significant address bits) should be set to 0. If the eight least significant address bits (A7-A0) are  
not all 0, all transmitted data going beyond the end of the current page are programmed from the start address of  
the same page (from the address A7-A0 are all 0). If more than 256 bytes are sent to the device, the data of the last  
256-byte is programmed at the request page and previous data will be disregarded. If less than 256 bytes are sent  
to the device, the data is programmed at the requested address of the page without effect on other address 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.  
If Reset# goes low during PP execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC (Recovery  
Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of PP is not guaranteed in this situation.  
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.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.

9-21. 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) in-  
struction 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 104MHz. 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.

9-22. Deep Power-down (DP)  
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is for setting the device on the minimizing the power consumption (to enter-  
ing the Deep Power-down mode), the standby current is reduced from ISB1 to ISB2). The Deep Power-down mode  
requires the Deep Power-down (DP) instruction to enter, during the Deep Power-down mode, the device is not ac-  
tive and all Write/Program/Erase instruction are ignored. When CS# goes high, it's only in deep power-down mode  
not standby mode. It's different from Standby mode.  
The sequence of issuing DP instruction is: CS# goes low→sending DP instruction code→CS# goes high.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
Once the DP instruction is set, all instructions will be ignored except the Release from Deep Power-down mode  
(RDP) and Read Electronic Signature (RES) instruction and softreset command. (those instructions allow the ID be-  
ing reading out). When Power-down, or software reset command the deep power-down mode automatically stops,  
and when power-up, the device automatically is in standby mode. For DP instruction the CS# must go high exactly  
at the byte boundary (the latest eighth bit of instruction code been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will not be  
executed. As soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high, a delay of tDP is required before entering the Deep Power-down  
mode.

9-23. Enter Secured OTP (ENSO)  
The ENSO instruction is for entering the additional 4K-bit secured OTP mode. The additional 4K-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.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
Please note that WRSR/WRSCUR commands are not acceptable during the access of secure OTP region, once se-  
curity OTP is lock down, only read related commands are valid.  
9-24. Exit Secured OTP (EXSO)  
The EXSO instruction is for exiting the additional 4K-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.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
9-25. 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.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
The definition of the Security Register bits is as below:  
Secured OTP Indicator bit. The Secured OTP indicator bit shows the chip 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 cus-  
tomer lock-down purpose. However, once the bit is set to "1" (lock-down), the LDSO bit and the 4K-bit Secured OTP  
area cannot be update any more. While it is in 4K-bit secured OTP mode, main array access is not allowed.

9-26. Write Security Register (WRSCUR)  
The WRSCUR instruction is for changing the values of Security Register Bits. The WREN (Write Enable) instruction  
is required before issuing WRSCUR instruction. The WRSCUR instruction may change the values of bit1 (LDSO  
bit) for customer to lock-down the 4K-bit Secured OTP area. Once the LDSO bit is set to "1", the Secured OTP area  
cannot be updated any more.  
The sequence of issuing WRSCUR instruction is :CS# goes low→ sending WRSCUR instruction → CS# goes high.  
If Reset# goes low during WRSCUR execution (SPI mode), the device will be reset to Standby mode after tREC  
(Recovery Time from Erase). Please note that the correct operation of WRSCUR is not guaranteed in this situation.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
The CS# must go high exactly at the boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.

9-27. Write Protection Selection (WPSEL)  
There are two write protection methods, (1) BP protection mode (2) individual block protection mode. If WPSEL=0,  
flash is under BP protection mode . If WPSEL=1, flash is under individual block protection mode. The default value  
of WPSEL is “0”. WPSEL command can be used to set WPSEL=1. Please note that WPSEL is an OTP bit. Once  
WPSEL is set to 1, there is no chance to recover WPSEL bit back to “0”. If the flash is under BP mode, the indi-  
vidual block protection mode is disabled. Contrarily, if flash is on the individual block protection mode, the BP mode  
is disabled.  
Every time after the system is powered-on, and the Security Register bit 7 is checked to be WPSEL=1, all  
the blocks or sectors will be write protected by default. User may only unlock the blocks or sectors via SBULK  
and GBULK instruction. Program or erase functions can only be operated after the Unlock instruction is conducted.  
BP protection mode, WPSEL=0:  
ARRAY is protected by BP3~BP0 and BP3~BP0 bits are protected by “SRWD=1 and WP#=0”, where SRWD is bit 7  
of status register that can be set by WRSR command.  
Individual block protection mode, WPSEL=1:  
Blocks are individually protected by their own SRAM lock bits which are set to “1” after power up. SBULK and SBLK  
command can set SRAM lock bit to “0” and “1”. When the system accepts and executes WPSEL instruction, the bit  
7 in security register will be set. It will activate SBLK, SBULK, RDBLOCK, GBLK, GBULK etc instructions to conduct  
block lock protection and replace the original Software Protect Mode (SPM) use (BP3~BP0) indicated block meth-  
ods.Under the individual block protection mode (WPSEL=1), hardware protection is performed by driving WP#=0.  
Once WP#=0 all array blocks/sectors are protected regardless of the contents of SRAM lock bits.  
The sequence of issuing WPSEL instruction is: CS# goes low → sending WPSEL instruction to enter the individual  
block protect mode → CS# goes high.

9-28. Single Block Lock/Unlock Protection (SBLK/SBULK)  
These instructions are only effective after WPSEL was executed. The SBLK instruction is for write protection a spec-  
ified block (or sector) of memory, using AMAX-A16 or (AMAX-A12) address bits to assign a 64Kbyte block (or 4K bytes  
sector) to be protected as read only. The SBULK instruction will cancel the block (or sector) write protection state.  
This feature allows user to stop protecting the entire block (or sector) through the chip unprotect command (GBULK).  
The WREN (Write Enable) instruction is required before issuing SBLK/SBULK instruction.  
The sequence of issuing SBLK/SBULK instruction is: CS# goes low → send SBLK/SBULK (36h/39h)  
instruction→send 3-byte address assign one block (or sector) to be protected on SI pin → CS# goes high. The CS#  
must go high exactly at the byte boundary, otherwise the instruction will be rejected and not be executed.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"

9-29. Read Block Lock Status (RDBLOCK)  
This instruction is only effective after WPSEL was executed. The RDBLOCK instruction is for reading the status of  
protection lock of a specified block (or sector), using AMAX-A16 (or AMAX-A12) address bits to assign a 64K bytes block (4K  
bytes sector) and read protection lock status bit which the first byte of Read-out cycle. The status bit is"1" to indicate  
that this block has be protected, that user can read only but cannot write/program /erase this block. The status bit is  
"0" to indicate that this block hasn't be protected, and user can read and write this block.  
The sequence of issuing RDBLOCK instruction is: CS# goes low → send RDBLOCK (3Ch) instruction → send  
3-byte address to assign one block on SI pin → read block's protection lock status bit on SO pin → CS# goes high.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
9-30. Gang Block Lock/Unlock (GBLK/GBULK)  
These instructions are only effective after WPSEL was executed. The GBLK/GBULK instruction is for enable/disable  
the lock protection block of the whole chip.  
The WREN (Write Enable) instruction is required before issuing GBLK/GBULK instruction.  
The sequence of issuing GBLK/GBULK instruction is: CS# goes low → send GBLK/GBULK (7Eh/98h) instruction  
→CS# goes high.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"

Read security register bit2 (PSB) and bit3 (ESB) (please refer to Table 8) to check suspend ready information.  
Suspend to suspend ready timing: 20us.  
Resume to another suspend timing: 1ms.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
9-32. Erase Suspend  
Erase suspend allows the interruption of all erase operations.  
After erase suspend, WEL bit will be clear, only read related, resume and reset command can be accepted. (including:  
03h, 0Bh, BBh, EBh, E7h, 9Fh, AFh, 90h, 05h, 2Bh, B1h, C1h, 5Ah, 3Ch, 30h, 66h, 99h, C0h, 35h, F5h, 00h, ABh )  
After issuing erase suspend command, latency time 20us is needed before issuing another command.  
ESB bit (Erase Suspend Bit) indicates the status of Erase suspend operation. ESB bit is set to "1" when suspend  
command is issued during erase operation. When erase operation resumes, ESB bit is reset to "0".  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
When ESB bit is issued, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit will be reset.  
9-33. Program Suspend  
Program suspend allows the interruption of all program operations.  
After program suspend, WEL bit will be cleared, only read related, resume and reset command can be accepted.  
(including: 03h, 0Bh, BBh, EBh, E7h, 9Fh, AFh, 90h, 05h, 2Bh, B1h, C1h, 5Ah, 3Ch, 30h, 66h, 99h, C0h, 35h, F5h,

9-34. Write-Resume  
The Write operation is being resumed when Write-Resume instruction issued. ESB or PSB (suspend status bit) in  
Status register will be changed back to “0”  
The operation of Write-Resume is as follows: CS# drives low → send write resume command cycle (30H) → drive  
CS# high. By polling Busy Bit in status register, the internal write operation status could be checked to be completed  
or not. The user may also wait the time lag of TSE, TBE, TPP for Sector-erase, Block-erase or Page-programming.  
WREN (command "06" is not required to issue before resume. Resume to another suspend operation requires  
latency time of 1ms.  
Please note that, if "performance enhance mode" is executed during suspend operation, the device can not  
be resumed. To restart the write command, disable the "performance enhance mode" is required. After the  
"performance enhance mode" is disable, the write-resume command is effective.  
9-35. No Operation (NOP)  
The No Operation command only cancels a Reset Enable command. NOP has no impact on any other command.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
9-36. Software Reset (Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST))  
The Reset operation is used as a system (software) reset that puts the device in normal operating Ready mode.  
This operation consists of two commands: Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST).  
To reset the device the host drives CS# low, sends the Reset-Enable command (66H), and drives CS# high. Next,  
the host drives CS# low again, sends the Reset command (99H), and drives CS# high.  
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are "don't care"  
in SPI mode.  
The Reset operation requires the Reset-Enable command followed by the Reset command. Any command other  
than the Reset command after the Reset-Enable command will disable the Reset-Enable.  
A successful command execution will reset the device to SPI stand-by read mode, which is its default state. A  
device reset during an active Program or Erase operation aborts the operation, which can cause the data of the  
targeted address range to be corrupted or lost. Depending on the prior operation, the reset time may vary. Recovery  
from a write operation requires more latency time than recovery from other operations.

9-37. 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 standard of JEDEC. JESD216. v1.0.

Note 1: h/b is hexadecimal or binary.  
Note 2: (x-y-z) means I/O mode nomenclature used to indicate the number of active pins used for the opcode (x),  
address (y), and data (z). At the present time, the only valid Read SFDP instruction modes are: (1-1-1), (2-2-2),  
and (4-4-4)  
Note 3: Wait States is required dummy clock cycles after the address bits or optional mode bits.  
Note 4: Mode Bits is optional control bits that follow the address bits. These bits are driven by the system controller  
if they are specified. (eg,read performance enhance toggling bits)  
Note 5: 4KB=2^0Ch,32KB=2^0Fh,64KB=2^10h  
Note 6: Memory within the SFDP address space that has not yet been defined or used, default to all 0xFFh.

10. RESET  
Driving the RESET# pin low for a period of tRLRH or longer will reset the device. After reset cycle, the device is at  
the following states:  
- Standby mode  
- All the volatile bits such as WEL/WIP/SRAM lock bit will return to the default status as power on.  
If the device is under programming or erasing, driving the RESET# pin low will also terminate the operation and data  
could be lost. During the resetting cycle, the SO data becomes high impedance and the current will be reduced to  
minimum.

11. POWER-ON STATE  
The device is at below states when 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 unless the VCC achieves below correct  
level:  
- 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, after VCC reaching the VWI level, a tPUW time delay is required before the  
device is fully accessible for commands like write enable (WREN), page program (PP), quad page program (4PP),  
sector erase (SE), block erase 32KB (BE32K), block erase (BE), chip erase (CE), WRSCUR and write status regis-  
ter (WRSR). 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:  
- tPUW after VCC reached VWI level  
- tVSL after VCC reached VCC minimum level  
The device can accept read command after VCC reached VCC minimum and a time delay of tVSL, even time of  
tPUW has not passed.  
Please refer to the "power-up timing".  
Note:  
- To stabilize the VCC level, the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to package pins is recommend-  
ed. (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 the stage while a write, program, erase cycle is in  
progress.

Notes:  
1. tCH + tCL must be greater than or equal to 1/ Frequency.  
2. Typical values given for TA=25 C. Not 100% tested.  
°
3. Only applicable as a constraint for a WRSR instruction when SRWD is set at 1.  
4. Test condition is shown as Figure 62, Figure 63.  
5. When dummy cycle=4 (In both QPI & SPI mode), maximum clock rate=84MHz; when dummy cycle=6 (In both  
QPI & SPI mode), maximum clock rate=104MHz.  
6. The maximum clock rate=33MHz when reading secured OTP area.  
7. While programming consecutive bytes, Page Program instruction provides optimized timings by selecting to pro-  
gram the whole 256 bytes or only a few bytes between 1~256 bytes.  
8. “n”=how many bytes to program. In the formula, while n=1, byte program time=12us.

13. OPERATING CONDITIONS  
At Device Power-Up and Power-Down  
AC timing illustrated in Figure 64 and Figure 65 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.
