7.31. Program/Erase Suspend (PES) (75H)

The Program/Erase Suspend command

“75H”, allows the system to interrupt a page program or sector/block erase

operation and then read data from any other sector or block. The Write Status Register command (01H/31H/11H) and

Erase/Program Security Registers command (44H,42H) and Erase commands (20H, 52H, D8H, C7H, 60H) and Page

Program command (02H / 32H) are not allowed during Program suspend. The Write Status Register command

(01H/31H/11H) and Erase Security Registers command (44H) and Erase commands (20H, 52H, D8H, C7H, 60H) are not

allowed during Erase suspend. Program/Erase Suspend is valid only during the page program or sector/block erase

operation. A maximum of

time of “tsus” (See AC Characteristics) is required to suspend the program/erase operation.
