Sector Protection/Unprotection
The hardware sector protection feature disables both
program and erase operations in any sector. The hardware
sector unprotection feature re-enables both program and
erase operations in previously protected sectors.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or
unprotected. See “Autoselect Mode” for details.
Sector protection / unprotection can be implemented via two
methods. The primary method requires VID on the
via programming equipment. Figure 2 shows the algorithm
and the Sector Protect / Unprotect Timing Diagram illustrates
the timing waveforms for this feature. This method uses
standard microprocessor bus cycle timing. For sector
unprotect, all unprotected sectors must first be protected
prior to the first sector unprotect write cycle. The alternate
method
equipment. The procedure requires a high voltage (V
address pin A9 and the control pins.
The device is shipped with all sectors unprotected.
It is possible to determine whether a sector is protected or
unprotected. See "Autoselect Mode" for details.
Hardware Data Protection
The requirement of command unlocking sequence for
programming or erasing provides data protection against
inadvertent writes (refer to the Command Definitions table).
In addition, the following hardware data protection measures
prevent accidental erasure or programming, which might
otherwise be caused by spurious system level signals during

Temporary Sector Unprotect
This feature allows temporary unprotection of previous
protected sectors to change data in-system. The Sector
Unprotect mode is activated by setting the RESET pin to V
During this mode, formerly protected sectors can be
programmed or erased by selecting the sector addresses.

protected sectors are protected again. Figure 1 shows the
algorithm, and the Temporary Sector Unprotect diagram
shows the timing waveforms, for this feature.
Notes:
1. All protected sectors unprotected.
2. All previously protected sectors are protected once again.
