The Sector Erase command can be used to individually erase any sector in the main memory.
There are 16 sectors and only one sector can be erased at one time. To perform sector 0a or
sector 0b erase for the DataFlash standard page size (264 bytes), an opcode of 7CH must be
loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 3 don’t care bits, 9 page
address bits (PA11 - PA3) and 12 don’t care bits. To perform a sector 1-15 erase, the
opcode 7CH must be loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of
3 don’t care bits, 4 page address bits (PA11 - PA8) and 17 don’t care bits. To perform sector 0a
or sector 0b erase for the binary page size (256 bytes), an opcode of 7CH must be loaded into
the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 4 don’t care bit and 9 page address
bits (A19 - A11) and 11 don’t care bits. To perform a sector 1-15 erase, the opcode 7CH must be
loaded into the device, followed by three address bytes comprised of 4 don’t care bit and 4 page
address bits (A19 - A16) and 16 don’t care bits. The page address bits are used to specify any
valid address location within the sector which is to be erased. When a low-to-high transition
occurs on the CS pin, the part will erase the selected sector. The erase operation is internally
self-timed and should take place in a maximum time of t
will indicate that the part is busy.
The entire main memory can be erased at one time by using the Chip Erase command.
To execute the Chip Erase command, a 4-byte command sequence C7H, 94H, 80H and 9AH
must be clocked into the device. Since the entire memory array is to be erased, no address
bytes need to be clocked into the device, and any data clocked in after the opcode will be
ignored. After the last bit of the opcode sequence has been clocked in, the CS pin can be deas-
serted to start the erase process. The erase operation is internally self-timed and should take
place in a time of t
The Chip Erase command will not affect sectors that are protected or locked down; the contents
of those sectors will remain unchanged. Only those sectors that are not protected or locked
down will be erased.
