COMMAND DEFINITIONS
Writing specific address and data commands or se-
quences into the command register initiates device op-
erations. The Command Definitions table defines the
valid register command sequences. Writing incorrect
address and data values or writing them in the im-
proper sequence resets the device to reading array
data.
All addresses are latched on the falling edge of WE# or
CE#, whichever happens later. All data is latched on
the rising edge of WE# or CE#, whichever happens
first. Refer to the appropriate timing diagrams in the
“AC Characteristics” section.
Reading Array Data
The device is automatically set to reading array data
after device power-up. No commands are required to
retrieve data. The device is also ready to read array
data after completing an Embedded Program or Em-
bedded Erase algorithm.
After the device accepts an Erase Suspend command,
the device enters the Erase Suspend mode. The sys-
tem can read array data using the standard read tim-
ings, except that if it reads at an address within erase-
suspended sectors, the device outputs status data.
After completing a programming operation in the Erase
Suspend mode, the system may once again read array
data with the same exception. See “Erase Suspend/
Erase Resume Commands” for more information on
this mode.
The system must issue the reset command to re-en-
able the device for reading array data if DQ5 goes high,
or while in the autoselect mode. See the “Reset Com-
mand” section, next.
See also “Requirements for Reading Array Data” in the
“Device Bus Operations” section for more information.

Noise pulses of less than 5 ns (typical) on OE#, CE# or

Reset Command
Writing the reset command to the device resets the de-
vice to reading array data. Address bits are don’t care
for this command.
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in an erase command sequence before
erasing begins. This resets the device to reading array
data. Once erasure begins, however, the device ig-
nores reset commands until the operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in a program command sequence be-
fore programming begins. This resets the device to
reading array data (also applies to programming in
Erase Suspend mode). Once programming begins,
however, the device ignores reset commands until the
operation is complete.
The reset command may be written between the se-
quence cycles in an autoselect command sequence.
Once in the autoselect mode, the reset command must
be written to return to reading array data (also applies
to autoselect during Erase Suspend).
If DQ5 goes high during a program or erase operation,
writing the reset command returns the device to read-
ing array data (also applies during Erase Suspend).
Autoselect Command Sequence
The autoselect command sequence allows the host
system to access the manufacturer and devices codes,
and determine whether or not a sector is protected.
The Command Definitions table shows the address
and data requirements. This method is an alternative to
that shown in the Autoselect Codes (High Voltage
