2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX25L6473E is 64Mb bits Serial Flash memory, which is configured as 8,388,608 x 8 internally. When it is in two
or four I/O mode, the structure becomes 33,554,432 bits x 2 or 16,777,216 bits x 4.
MX25L6473E features a serial peripheral interface and software protocol allowing operation on a simple 3-wire
bus while it is in single I/O mode. The three bus signals are a clock input (SCLK), a serial data input (SI), and a
serial data output (SO). Serial access to the device is enabled by CS# input.
MX25L6473E, MXSMIO® (Serial Multi I/O) flash memory, provides sequential read operation on the whole chip
and multi-I/O features.
When it is in dual or quad I/O read mode, the SI pin and SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin for address/
dummy bits input and data output.
After program/erase command is issued, auto program/erase algorithms which program/erase and verify the
specified page or sector/block locations will be executed. Program command is executed on byte basis, or page (256
bytes) basis, or word basis for Continuous Program mode, and erase command is executed on 4K-byte sector,
32K-byte/64K-byte block, or whole chip basis.
To provide user with ease of interface, a status register is included to indicate the status of the chip. The status
read command can be issued to detect completion status of a program or erase operation via WIP bit.
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode.
The MX25L6473E utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after
100,000 program and erase cycles.

6. DATA PROTECTION
During power transition, there may be some false system level signals which result in inadvertent erasure or
programming. The device is designed to protect itself from these accidental write cycles.
The state machine will be reset as standby mode automatically during power up. In addition, the control register
architecture of the device constrains that the memory contents can only be changed after specific command
sequences have completed successfully.
In the following, there are several features to protect the system from the accidental write cycles during VCC
power-up and power-down or from system noise.
• Valid command length checking: The command length will be checked whether it is at byte base and completed on byte boundary.
• Write Enable (WREN) command: WREN command is required to set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL) before
other command to change data. The WEL bit will return to reset stage under following situation:
- Power-up
- Write Disable (WRDI) command completion
- Write Status Register (WRSR) command completion
- Page Program (PP, 4PP) command completion
- Continuous Program mode (CP) instruction completion
- Sector Erase (SE) command completion
- Block Erase (BE, BE32K) command completion
- Chip Erase (CE) command completion
- Single Block Lock/Unlock (SBLK/SBULK) instruction completion
- Gang Block Lock/Unlock (GBLK/GBULK) instruction completion
• Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device also is under protected from
writing all commands except Release from Deep Power Down mode command (RDP) and Read Electronic
Signature command (RES).
I. Block lock protection
- The Software Protected Mode (SPM) uses (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits to allow part of memory to be protected as read only. The protected area definition is shown as table of "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes", the
protected areas are more flexible which may protect various areas by setting value of BP0-BP3 bits.
- MX25L6473E provides individual block (or sector) write protect & unprotect. User may enter the mode with
WPSEL command and conduct individual block (or sector) write protect with SBLK instruction, or SBULK
for individual block (or sector) unprotect. Under the mode, user may conduct whole chip (all blocks) protect
with GBLK instruction and unlock the whole chip with GBULK instruction.

8. DEVICE OPERATION
1. Before a command is issued, status register should be checked to ensure device is ready for the intended operation.
2. When incorrect command is inputted to this device, it enters standby mode and remains in standby mode until next CS# falling edge. In standby mode, SO pin of the device is High-Z.
3. When correct command is inputted to this device, it enters active mode and remains in active mode until next
CS# rising edge.
4. For standard single data rate serial mode, input data is latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock(SCLK) and
data is shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK. The difference of Serial mode 0 and mode 3 is shown as "Figure 1.
Serial Modes Supported (for Normal Serial mode)".
5. For the following instructions: RDID, RDSR, RDSCUR, READ, FAST_READ, RDSFDP, 2READ, DREAD,
4READ, QREAD, RDBLOCK, RES, REMS, REMS2, and REMS4 the shifted-in instruction sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. After any bit of data being shifted out, the CS# can be high. For the following
instructions: WREN, WRDI, WRSR, SE, BE, BE32K, CE, PP, CP, 4PP, RDP, DP, WPSEL, SBLK, SBULK,
GBLK, GBULK, ENSO, EXSO, WRSCUR, ESRY and DSRY. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte
boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
6. While a Write Status Register, Program, or Erase operation is in progress, access to the memory array is neglected and will not affect the current operation of Write Status Register, Program, Erase.

Write Enable (WREN)
The Write Enable (WREN) instruction is for setting Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. For those instructions like PP,
4PP, CP, SE, BE, BE32K, CE, WRSR, WRSCUR, WPSEL, SBLK, SBULK, GBLK and GBULK, which are intended to change the device content, should be set every time after the WREN instruction setting the WEL bit.
The sequence of issuing WREN instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending WREN instruction code→ CS# goes
high.

Read Identification (RDID)
The RDID instruction is for reading the Manufacturer ID of 1-byte and followed by Device ID of 2-byte.
The Macronix Manufacturer ID is C2(hex), the memory type ID is 20(hex) as the first-byte Device ID, and the individual Device ID of second-byte ID are listed as table of "Table 7. ID Definitions".
The sequence of issuing RDID instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDID instruction code → 24-bits ID data
out on SO→ to end RDID operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, so there's no effect on the
cycle of program/erase operation which is currently in progress. When CS# goes high, the device is at standby
stage.

Read Status Register (RDSR)
The RDSR instruction is for reading Status Register. The Read Status Register can be read at any time (even
in program/erase/write status register condition) and continuously. It is recommended to check the Write in
Progress (WIP) bit before sending a new instruction when a program, erase, or write status register operation is
in progress.
The sequence of issuing RDSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDSR instruction code→ Status Register

REV. 1.4, JUN. 16, 2015
MX25L6473E
The definition of the status register bits is as below:
WIP bit. The Write in Progress (WIP) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is busy in program/erase/
write status register progress. When WIP bit sets to 1, which means the device is busy in program/erase/write
status register progress. When WIP bit sets to 0, which means the device is not in progress of program/erase/
write status register cycle.
WEL bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is set to internal write enable latch. When WEL bit sets to "1", which means the internal write enable latch is set, the device can accept
program/erase/write status register instruction. When WEL bit sets to 0, which means no internal write enable
latch; the device will not accept program/erase/write status register instruction. The program/erase command will
be ignored and will reset WEL bit if it is applied to a protected memory area. To ensure both WIP bit & WEL bit are
both set to 0 and available for next program/erase/operations, WIP bit needs to be confirm to be 0 before polling
WEL bit. After WIP bit confirmed, WEL bit needs to be confirm to be 0.
BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits, non-volatile bits, indicate the protected area (as defined in "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes") of the device to against the program/erase instruction
without hardware protection mode being set. To write the Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits requires the
Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction to be executed. Those bits define the protected area of the memory to
against Page Program (PP), Sector Erase (SE), Block Erase (BE) and Chip Erase (CE) instructions (only if all
Block Protect bits set to 0, the CE instruction can be executed). The BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits are "0" as default.
Which is un-protected.
QE bit. The Quad Enable (QE) bit is permanently set to "1". The flash always performs Quad I/O mode.

Configuration Register
The Configuration Register is able to change the default status of Flash memory. Flash memory will be configured
after the CR bit is set.
TB bit
The Top/Bottom (TB) bit is a non-volatile OTP bit. The Top/Bottom (TB) bit is used to configure the Block Protect
area by BP bit (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0), starting from TOP or Bottom of the memory array. The TB bit is defaulted as “0”,
which means Top area protect. When it is set as “1”, the protect area will change to Bottom area of the memory
device. To write the TB bits requires the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction to be executed.

Write Status Register (WRSR)
The WRSR instruction is for changing the values of Status Register Bits and Configuration Register Bits. Before
sending WRSR instruction, the Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be decoded and executed to set the Write
Enable Latch (WEL) bit in advance. The WRSR instruction can change the value of Block Protect (BP3, BP2,
BP1, BP0) bits to define the protected area of memory (as shown in "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes").
The sequence of issuing WRSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending WRSR instruction code→ Status Register data on SI→ CS# goes high.

The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
The self-timed Write Status Register cycle time (tW) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The
Write in Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked out during the Write Status Register cycle is in progress. The
WIP sets 1 during the tW timing, and sets 0 when Write Status Register Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.

Read Data Bytes (READ)
The read instruction is for reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and data shifts out
on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fR. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole
memory can be read out at a single READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached.
The sequence of issuing READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending READ instruction code→3-byte address
on SI →data out on SO→ to end READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.

Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ)
The FAST_READ instruction is for quickly reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and
data of each bit shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fC. The first address byte can be
at any location. The address is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted
out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single FAST_READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to
0 when the highest address has been reached.
The sequence of issuing FAST_READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending FAST_READ instruction code→
3-byte address on SI→1-dummy byte (default) address on SI→ data out on SO→ to end FAST_READ operation
can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
In the performance-enhancing mode, P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0] ; likewise P[7:0]=A5h,5Ah,F0h or 0Fh
can make this mode continue and reduce the next 4READ instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with
P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=FFh,00h,AAh or 55h and afterwards CS# is raised and then lowered, the system then will
escape from performance enhance mode and return to normal operation.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, FAST_READ instruction is rejected without any
impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

Dual Read Mode (DREAD)
The DREAD instruction enable double throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and data of every two bits (interleave on 2 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at
a maximum frequency fT. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased
to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single
DREAD instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing DREAD instruction, the following data out will perform as 2-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing DREAD instruction is: CS# goes low → sending DREAD instruction → 3-byte address
on SI → 8-bit dummy cycle → data out interleave on SIO1 & SIO0 → to end DREAD operation can use CS# to
high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, DREAD instruction is rejected without any impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

2 x I/O Read Mode (2READ)
The 2READ instruction enables Double Transfer Rate of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on
rising edge of SCLK, and data of every two bits (interleave on 2 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at
a maximum frequency fT. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased
to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single
2READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing 2READ instruction, the following address/dummy/data out will perform as 2-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing 2READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending 2READ instruction→ 24-bit address interleave on SIO1 & SIO0→ 4-bit dummy cycle on SIO1 & SIO0→ data out interleave on SIO1 & SIO0→ to end
2READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.

Quad Read Mode (QREAD)
The QREAD instruction enable quad throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising
edge of SCLK, and data of every four bits (interleave on 4 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at a
maximum frequency fQ. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased
to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single
QREAD instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing QREAD instruction, the following data out will perform as 4-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing QREAD instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending QREAD instruction → 3-byte address
on SI → 8-bit dummy cycle → data out interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0→ to end QREAD operation can
use CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, QREAD instruction is rejected without any impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

4 x I/O Read Mode (4READ)
The 4READ instruction enables quad throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and data of every four bits (interleave on 4 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at
a maximum frequency fQ. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased
to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single
4READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing 4READ instruction, the following address/dummy/data out will perform as 4-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing 4READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending 4READ instruction→ 24-bit address interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0→2+4 dummy cycles (default)→data out interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 &
SIO0→ to end 4READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
W4READ instruction (E7) is also available for 4 I/O read. The sequence is similar to 4READ, but with only 4
dummy cycles. The clock rate runs at 54MHz.

Another sequence of issuing 4READ instruction especially useful in random access is : CS# goes low→ sending
4READ instruction→ 3-bytes address interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 →performance enhance toggling
bit P[7:0]→ 4 dummy cycles (default)→ data out still CS# goes high → CS# goes low (reduce 4 Read instruction) → 24-bit random access address (Please refer to "Figure 14. 4 x I/O Read enhance performance Mode Sequence (Command EB)").
In the performance-enhancing mode (Notes of "Figure 14. 4 x I/O Read enhance performance Mode Sequence
(Command EB)"), P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=A5h, 5Ah, F0h or 0Fh can make this
mode continue and reduce the next 4READ instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with P[3:0]; likewise
P[7:0]=FFh, 00h, AAh or 55h. These commands will reset the performance enhance mode. And afterwards CS#
is raised and then lowered, the system then will return to normal operation.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, 4READ instruction is rejected without any impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

Performance Enhance Mode
The device could waive the command cycle bits if the two cycle bits after address cycle toggles. (Please note
"Figure 14. 4 x I/O Read enhance performance Mode Sequence (Command EB)")
Please be noticed that “EBh” and “E7h” commands support enhance mode. The performance enhance mode is
not supported in dual I/O mode.
After entering enhance mode, following CSB go high, the device will stay in the read mode and treat CSB go low
of the first clock as address instead of command cycle.
To exit enhance mode, a new fast read command whose first two dummy cycles is not toggle then exit. Or issue
”FFh” command to exit enhance mode.
9-13.
Performance Enhance Mode Reset (FFh)
To conduct the Performance Enhance Mode Reset operation, FFh command code, 8 clocks, should be issued in
1I/O sequence.
If the system controller is being Reset during operation, the flash device will return to the standard operation.
Upon Reset of main chip, Instruction would be issued from the system. Instructions like Read ID (9Fh) or Fast
Read (0Bh) would be issued.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.

Sector Erase (SE)
The Sector Erase (SE) instruction is for erasing the data of the chosen sector to be "1". The instruction is used
for any 4K-byte sector. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL)
bit before sending the Sector Erase (SE). Any address of the sector (see "Table 4. Memory Organization") is a
valid address for Sector Erase (SE) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the least
significant bit of the address has been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
The sequence of issuing SE instruction is: CS# goes low → sending SE instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI
→CS# goes high.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.
The self-timed Sector Erase Cycle time (tSE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked while the Sector Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets during the tSE
timing, and clears when Sector Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is cleared. If the
sector is protected by BP3~0 (WPSEL=0) or by individual lock (WPSEL=1), the array data will be protected (no
change) and the WEL bit still be reset.

Page Program (PP)
The Page Program (PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN) instruction
must be executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Page Program (PP). The device
programs only the last 256 data bytes sent to the device. The last address byte (the 8 least significant address
bits, A7-A0) should be set to 0 for 256 bytes page program. If A7-A0 are not all zero, transmitted data that
exceed page length are programmed from the starting address (24-bit address that last 8 bit are all 0) of currently
selected page. If the data bytes sent to the device exceeds 256, the last 256 data byte is programmed at the
requested page and previous data will be disregarded. If the data bytes sent to the device has not exceeded 256,
the data will be programmed at the requested address of the page. There will be no effort on the other data bytes
of the same page.
The sequence of issuing PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on
SI→ at least 1-byte on data on SI→ CS# goes high.
The CS# must be kept to low during the whole Page Program cycle; The CS# must go high exactly at the byte
boundary (the latest eighth bit of data being latched in), otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and will not be
executed.

4 x I/O Page Program (4PP)
The Quad Page Program (4PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN)
instruction must be executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The Quad Page Programming takes
four pins: SIO0, SIO1, SIO2, and SIO3, which can raise programmer performance and the effectiveness of
application of lower clock less than f4PP. For system with faster clock, the Quad page program cannot provide
more performance, because the required internal page program time is far more than the time data flows in.
Therefore, we suggest that while executing this command (especially during sending data), user can slow the
clock speed down to f4PP below. The other function descriptions are as same as standard page program.
The sequence of issuing 4PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending 4PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on
SIO[3:0]→ at least 1-byte on data on SIO[3:0]→ CS# goes high.
If the page is protected by BP3~0 (WPSEL=0) or by individual lock (WPSEL=1), the array data will be protected (no
change) and the WEL bit will still be reset.

Continuous Program mode (CP mode)
The CP mode may enhance program performance by automatically increasing address to the next higher address after each byte data has been programmed.
The Continuous Program (CP) instruction is for multiple bytes program to Flash. A write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Continuous Program (CP)
instruction. CS# requires to go high before CP instruction is executing. After CP instruction and address input,
two bytes of data is input sequentially from MSB(bit7) to LSB(bit0). The first byte data will be programmed to the
initial address range with A0=0 and second byte data with A0=1. If only one byte data is input, the CP mode will
not process. If more than two bytes data are input, the additional data will be ignored and only two byte data are
valid. Any byte to be programmed should be in the erase state (FF) first. It will not roll over during the CP mode,
once the last unprotected address has been reached, the chip will exit CP mode and reset write Enable Latch bit
(WEL) as "0" and CP mode bit as "0". Please check the WIP bit status if it is not in write progress before entering next valid instruction. During CP mode, the valid commands are CP command (AD hex), WRDI command (04
hex), RDSR command (05 hex), and RDSCUR command (2B hex). And the WRDI command is valid after completion of a CP programming cycle, which means the WIP bit=0.
The sequence of issuing CP instruction is : CS# goes low → sending CP instruction code → 3-byte address on
SI pin → two data bytes on SI → CS# goes high to low → sending CP instruction and then continue two data
bytes are programmed → CS# goes high to low → till last desired two data bytes are programmed → CS# goes
high to low →sending WRDI (Write Disable) instruction to end CP mode → send RDSR instruction to verify if
CP mode word program ends, or send RDSCUR to check bit4 to verify if CP mode ends.
Three methods to detect the completion of a program cycle during CP mode:
1) Software method-I: by checking WIP bit of Status Register to detect the completion of CP mode.
2) Software method-II: by waiting for a tBP time out to determine if it may load next valid command or not.
3) Hardware method: by writing ESRY (enable SO to output RY/BY#) instruction to detect the completion of a
program cycle during CP mode. The ESRY instruction must be executed before CP mode execution. Once
it is enable in CP mode, the CS# goes low will drive out the RY/BY# status on SO, "0" indicates busy stage,
"1" indicates ready stage, SO pin outputs tri-state if CS# goes high. Please note user must send at least
one clock cycle on SCLK while CS# is at low to read the status of RY/BY# on SO pin. DSRY (disable SO
to output RY/BY#) instruction to disable the SO to output RY/BY# and return to status register data output
during CP mode. Please note that the ESRY/DSRY commands are not accepted unless the completion of
CP mode.
If the page is protected by BP3~0 (WPSEL=0) or by individual lock (WPSEL=1), the array data will be protected (no change) and the WEL bit will still be reset.

But, RDSR and RDSCUR are invalid commands during CP mode with hardware detection .
(2) Once an internal programming operation begins, CS# goes low will drive the status on the SO pin and CS#
goes high will return the SO pin to tri-state. User must send at least one clock cycle on SCLK while CS# is at
low to read the status of RY/BY# on SO pin.
(3) To end the CP mode, either reaching the highest unprotected address or sending Write Disable (WRDI)
command (04 hex) may achieve it and then it is recommended to send RDSR command (05 hex) to verify if
CP mode is ended. Please be noticed that Software reset and Hardware reset can end the CP mode.

Deep Power-down (DP)
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is for setting the device to minimum power consumption (the standby
current is reduced from ISB1 to ISB2). The Deep Power-down mode requires the Deep Power-down (DP) instruction to enter, during the Deep Power-down mode, the device is not active and all Write/Program/Erase instructions are ignored. When CS# goes high, the device is in standby mode, not deep power-down mode.
The sequence of issuing DP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending DP instruction code→ CS# goes high.
SIO2 and SIO3 need to be externally pulled to a high (recommended) or low state when the device is in Standby
mode or Deep Power mode.
Once the DP instruction is set, all instructions will be ignored except the Release from Deep Power-down mode (RDP)
and Read Electronic Signature (RES) instruction. (those instructions allow the ID being reading out). When
Power-down, the deep power-down mode automatically stops, and when power-up, the device automatically is
in standby mode. For RDP instruction the CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the latest eighth bit of
instruction code has been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will not be executed. As soon as Chip Select (CS#)
goes high, a delay of tDP is required before entering the Deep Power-down mode and reducing the current to
ISB2.

Release from Deep Power-down (RDP), Read Electronic Signature (RES)
The Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction is completed by driving Chip Select (CS#) High. When
Chip Select (CS#) is driven High, the device is put in the standby Power mode. If the device was not previously in
the Deep Power-down mode, the transition to the standby Power mode is immediate. If the device was previously
in the Deep Power-down mode, though, the transition to the standby Power mode is delayed by tRES2, and Chip
Select (CS#) must remain High for at least tRES2(max), as specified in "Table 13. AC Characteristics". Once in
the standby mode, the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and execute instructions.
RES instruction is for reading out the old style of 8-bit Electronic Signature, whose values are shown as "Table 7.
ID Definitions". This is not the same as RDID instruction. It is not recommended to use for new design. For new
design, please use RDID instruction. Even in Deep power-down mode, the RDP and RES are also allowed to
be executed, only except the device is in progress of program/erase/write cycles; there's no effect on the current
program/erase/write cycles in progress.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.
The RES instruction is ended by CS# goes high after the ID been read out at least once. The ID outputs repeatedly if continuously send the additional clock cycles on SCLK while CS# is at low. If the device was not previously in Deep Power-down mode, the device transition to standby mode is immediate. If the device was previously
in Deep Power-down mode, there's a delay of tRES2 to transit to standby mode, and CS# must remain to high
at least tRES2(max). Once in the standby mode, the device waits to be selected, so it can receive, decode, and
execute instruction.
The RDP instruction is for releasing from Deep Power-down Mode.

Read Electronic Manufacturer ID & Device ID (REMS), (REMS2), (REMS4)
The REMS, REMS2, and REMS4 instruction provides both the JEDEC assigned Manufacturer ID and the specific Device ID.
The instruction is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and shift the instruction code "90h", "DFh" or "EFh" followed by two dummy bytes and one byte address (A7~A0). After which, the Manufacturer ID for Macronix (C2h)
and the Device ID are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK with most significant bit (MSB) first as shown in
the figure below. The Device ID values are listed in "Table 7. ID Definitions". If the one-byte address is initially
set to 01h, then the Device ID will be read first and then followed by the Manufacturer ID. The Manufacturer and
Device IDs can be read continuously, alternating from one to the other. The instruction is completed by driving
CS# high.

Enter Secured OTP (ENSO)
The ENSO instruction is for entering the additional 4K-bit Secured OTP mode. While device is in 4K-bit Secured
OTP mode, array access is not available. The additional 4K-bit Secured OTP is independent from main array,
and may be used to store unique serial number for system identifier. After entering the Secured OTP mode, follow standard read or program procedure to read out the data or update data. The Secured OTP data cannot be
updated again once it is lock-down.
The sequence of issuing ENSO instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending ENSO instruction to enter Secured OTP

"0", it indicates non-factory lock; "1" indicates factory- lock.
Lock-down Secured OTP (LDSO) bit. By writing WRSCUR instruction, the LDSO bit may be set to "1" for customer lock-down purpose. However, once the bit is set to "1" (lock-down), the LDSO bit and the 4K-bit Secured
OTP area cannot be updated any more.
Continuous Program Mode (CP mode) bit. The Continuous Program Mode bit indicates the status of CP mode,
"0" indicates not in CP mode; "1" indicates in CP mode.
Program Fail Flag bit. While a program failure happened, the Program Fail Flag bit would be set. If the program
operation fails on a protected memory region or locked OTP region, this bit will also be set. This bit can be the
failure indication of one or more program operations. This fail flag bit will be cleared automatically after the next
successful program operation.
Erase Fail Flag bit. While an erase failure happened, the Erase Fail Flag bit would be set. If the erase operation fails on a protected memory region or locked OTP region, this bit will also be set. This bit can be the failure
indication of one or more erase operations. This fail flag bit will be cleared automatically after the next successful

Write Protection Selection (WPSEL)
There are two write protection methods, (1) BP protection mode (2) individual block protection mode. If
WPSEL=0, flash is under BP protection mode. If WPSEL=1, flash is under individual block protection mode. The
default value of WPSEL is “0”. WPSEL command can be used to set WPSEL=1. Please note that WPSEL is an
OTP bit. Once WPSEL is set to 1, there is no chance to recovery WPSEL back to “0”. If the flash is put on
BP mode, the individual block protection mode is disabled. Contrarily, if flash is on the individual block protection
mode, the BP mode is disabled.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.
Every time after the system is powered-on, the Security Register bit 7 is checked. If WPSEL=1, then all
the blocks and sectors will be write protected by default. User may only unlock the blocks or sectors via
SBULK and GBULK instructions. Program or erase functions can only be operated after the Unlock instruction is
executed.
BP protection mode, WPSEL=0:
ARRAY is protected by BP3~BP0.

Individual block protection mode, WPSEL=1:
Blocks are individually protected by their own SRAM lock bits which are set to “1” after power up. SBULK and
SBLK command can set SRAM lock bit to “0” and “1”. When the system accepts and executes WPSEL instruction, bit 7 in the security register will be set. It will activate SBLK, SBULK, RDBLOCK, GBLK, GBULK, PBLK,
RDPBLK etc instructions to conduct block lock protection and replace the original Software Protect Mode (SPM)
use (BP3~BP0) indicated block methods.
The WREN (Write Enable) instruction is required before issuing WPSEL instruction.
The sequence of issuing WPSEL instruction is: CS# goes low → sending WPSEL instruction to enter the individual block protect mode → CS# goes high.

Single Block Lock/Unlock Protection (SBLK/SBULK)
These instructions are only effective after WPSEL was executed. The SBLK instruction is for write protection a
specified block(or sector) of memory, using A23-A16 or (A23-A12) address bits to assign a 64Kbytes block (or
4K bytes sector) to be protected as read only. The SBULK instruction will cancel the block (or sector) write protection state. This feature allows user to stop protecting the entire block (or sector) through the chip unprotect
command (GBULK).
The WREN (Write Enable) instruction is required before issuing SBLK/SBULK instruction.
The sequence of issuing SBLK/SBULK instruction is: CS# goes low → send SBLK/SBULK (36h/39h) instruction
→ send 3 address bytes assign one block (or sector) to be protected on SI pin → CS# goes high.
The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary, otherwise the instruction will be rejected and not be executed.

Read Block Lock Status (RDBLOCK)
This instruction is only effective after WPSEL was executed. The RDBLOCK instruction is for reading the status
of protection lock of a specified block(or sector), using A23-A16 (or A23-A12) address bits to assign a 64K bytes
block (4K bytes sector) and read protection lock status bit which the first byte of Read-out cycle. The status bit
is"1" to indicate that this block has been protected, that user can read only but cannot write/program /erase this
block. The status bit is "0" to indicate that this block hasn't be protected, and user can read and write this block.
The sequence of issuing RDBLOCK instruction is: CS# goes low → send RDBLOCK (3Ch) instruction → send
3 address bytes to assign one block on SI pin → read block's protection lock status bit on SO pin → CS# goes

functional and feature capabilities of serial flash devices in a standard set of internal parameter tables. These
parameter tables can be interrogated by host system software to enable adjustments needed to accommodate
divergent features from multiple vendors. The concept is similar to the one found in the Introduction of JEDEC
Standard, JESD68 on CFI.
The sequence of issuing RDSFDP instruction is CS# goes low→send RDSFDP instruction (5Ah)→send 3
address bytes on SI pin→send 1 dummy byte on SI pin→read SFDP code on SO→to end RDSFDP operation
can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
SFDP is a JEDEC Standard, JESD216.

Note 1: h/b is hexadecimal or binary.
Note 2: (x-y-z) means I/O mode nomenclature used to indicate the number of active pins used for the opcode (x),
address (y), and data (z). At the present time, the only valid Read SFDP instruction modes are: (1-1-1),
(2-2-2), and (4-4-4)
Note 3: Wait States is required dummy clock cycles after the address bits or optional mode bits.
Note 4: Mode Bits is optional control bits that follow the address bits. These bits are driven by the system
controller if they are specified. (eg,read performance enhance toggling bits)
Note 5: 4KB=2^0Ch,32KB=2^0Fh,64KB=2^10h
Note 6: All unused and undefined area data is blank FFh for SFDP Tables that are defined in Parameter

10. POWER-ON STATE
The device is at the following states after power-up:
- Standby mode (please note it is not Deep Power-down mode)
- Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset
The device must not be selected during power-up and power-down stage until the VCC reaches the following
levels:
- VCC minimum at power-up stage and then after a delay of tVSL
- GND at power-down
Please note that a pull-up resistor on CS# may ensure a safe and proper power-up/down level.
An internal Power-on Reset (POR) circuit may protect the device from data corruption and inadvertent data
change during power up state.
For further protection on the device, if the VCC does not reach the VCC minimum level, the correct operation is
not guaranteed. The read, write, erase, and program command should be sent after the time delay:
- tVSL after VCC reached VCC minimum level
The device can accept read command after VCC reached VCC minimum and a time delay of tVSL.
Note:
- To stabilize the VCC level, the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to package pins is recommended. (generally around 0.1uF)
