the value of the Write In Progress (WIP) bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is 1 during the self-timed

Sector Erase cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some unspecified time before the cycle is completed,

the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.

A Sector Erase (SE) instruction applied to a sector which is protected by the Block Protect (BP2, BP1,

BP0) bits (see Table 3) is not executed.

Block Erase (BE) (D8h/52h)

The Block Erase (BE) instruction sets to 1 (FFh) all bits inside the chosen block. Before it can be accepted,

a Write Enable (WREN) instruction must previously have been executed. After the Write Enable (WREN)

instruction has been decoded, the device sets the Write Enable Latch (WEL).

The Block Erase (BE) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (CS#) Low, followed by the instruction

code, and three address bytes on Serial Data Input (DI). Any address inside the Block (see Table 2) is a

valid address for the Block Erase (BE) instruction. Chip Select (CS#) must be driven Low for the entire

duration of the sequence.

The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 13.. Chip Select (CS#) must be driven High after the eighth

bit of the last address byte has been latched in, otherwise the Block Erase (BE) instruction is not executed.

initiated. While the Block Erase cycle is in progress, the Status Register may be read to check the value of

the Write In Progress (WIP) bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is 1 during the self-timed Block Erase

cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some unspecified time before the cycle is completed, the Write

Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.

A Block Erase (BE) instruction applied to a block which is protected by the Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0)

bits (see Table 3) is not executed.
