— Supports full chip erase
— Sector Protection features:
Unlock Bypass Program Command
— Reduces overall programming time when issuing
operations for battery-powered applications
write operations and for compatibility with high
performance 3.3 volt microprocessors
70 ns
thirty-one 64 Kbyte sectors (byte mode)
thirty-one 32 Kword sectors (word mode)
A hardware method of locking a sector to prevent
any program or erase operations within that sector
Sectors can be locked in-system or via
programming equipment
Temporary Sector Unprotect feature allows code
changes in previously locked sectors
multiple program command sequences
Top or bottom boot block configurations
available
Embedded Algorithms
— Embedded Erase algorithm automatically

— Superior inadvertent write protection
Data# Polling and toggle bits
— Provides a software method of detecting program
Ready/Busy# pin (RY/BY#)
— Provides a hardware method of detecting
Erase Suspend/Erase Resume
— Suspends an erase operation to read data from,
Hardware reset pin (RESET#)
— Hardware method to reset the device to reading
preprograms and erases the entire chip or any
combination of designated sectors
writes and verifies data at specified addresses
system, allowing host software to easily
reconfigure for different Flash devices
power supply Flash
or erase operation completion
program or erase cycle completion (not available
on 44-pin SO)
