2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX25V2033F is 2Mb bits Serial NOR Flash memory, which is configured as 262,144 x 8 internally. When it is in
four I/O mode, the structure becomes 524,288 bits x 4 or 1,048,576 bits x 2.
MX25V2035F 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.
When it is in two I/O read mode, the SI pin and SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin for address/dummy bits
input and data output. When it is in four I/O read mode, the SI pin, SO pin, WP# pin and HOLD# pin become SIO0
pin, SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin and SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data output.
The MX25V2033F MXSMIO® (Serial Multi I/O) provides sequential read operation on the whole chip.
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. Erase command is executed on 4K-byte sector, 32K-byte block, or 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.
Advanced security features enhance the protection and security functions, please see security features section for
more details.
The MX25V2033F 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 powerup and power-down or from system noise.
• Power-on reset: to avoid sudden power switch by system power supply transition, the power-on reset may
protect the Flash.
• 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
issuing other commands to change data.
• Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device is under protected from writing
all commands except toggling the CS#. For more detail please see "10-20. Deep Power-down (DP)".
• Advanced Security Features: there are some protection and security features which protect content from
inadvertent write and hostile access.
I. Block lock protection
- The Software Protected Mode (SPM) use (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits to allow part of memory to be protected
as read only. The protected area definition is shown as "Table 1. Protected Area Sizes", the protected areas are
more flexible which may protect various area by setting value of BP0-BP3 bits.
- The Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) use WP#/SIO2 to protect the (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits and Status
Register Write Protect (SRWD) bit. If the system goes into four I/O mode, the feature of HPM will be disabled.

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. Input data is latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (SCLK) and data shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK.
The difference of Serial mode 0 and mode 3 is shown as "Figure 1. Serial Modes Supported".
5. For the following instructions: RDID, RDSR, RDSCUR, READ, FAST_READ, DREAD, 2READ, 4READ, QREAD,
RES, REMS, 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, BE32K, BE, CE, PP,
4PP, DP, ENSO, EXSO, WRSCUR, SUSPEND, RESUME, RSTEN, RST, 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.

9. HOLD FEATURE
HOLD# pin signal goes low to hold any serial communications with the device. The HOLD feature will not stop the
operation of write status register, programming, or erasing in progress.
The operation of HOLD requires Chip Select (CS#) keeping low and starts on falling edge of HOLD# pin signal
while Serial Clock (SCLK) signal is being low (if Serial Clock signal is not being low, HOLD operation will not start
until Serial Clock signal being low). The HOLD condition ends on the rising edge of HOLD# pin signal while Serial
Clock(SCLK) signal is being low (if Serial Clock signal is not being low, HOLD operation will not end until Serial
Clock being low).

high impedance until Hold# pin goes high. The Serial Data Input (SI) is don't care if both Serial Clock (SCLK) and
Hold# pin goes low and will keep the state until SCLK goes low and Hold# pin goes high. If Chip Select (CS#) drives
high during HOLD operation, it will reset the internal logic of the device. To re-start communication with chip, the
HOLD# must be at high and CS# must be at low.
Note: The HOLD feature is disabled during Quad I/O mode.

10-3. 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 and Device ID are listed as "Table 5. 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 drive CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, therefore 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.

10-4. Read Electronic Manufacturer ID & Device ID (REMS)
The REMS instruction returns both the JEDEC assigned manufacturer ID and the device ID. The Device ID values
are listed in "Table 5. ID Definitions".
The REMS instruction is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and sending the instruction code "90h" followed by two
dummy bytes and one address byte (A7-A0). After which the manufacturer ID for Macronix (C2h) and the device
ID are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK with the most significant bit (MSB) first. If the address byte is 00h,
the manufacturer ID will be output first, followed by the device ID. If the address byte is 01h, then the device ID will
be output first, followed by the manufacturer ID. While CS# is low, the manufacturer and device IDs can be read
continuously, alternating from one to the other. The instruction is completed by driving CS# high.

10-5. ID Read
User can execute this ID Read instruction to identify the Device ID and Manufacturer ID. 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 drive CS# to high at any time during data out.
After the command cycle, the device will immediately output data on the falling edge of SCLK. The manufacturer ID,
memory type, and device ID data byte will be output continuously, until the CS# goes high.
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, therefore 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.

The RDSR instruction is for reading Status Register Bits. The Read Status Register can be read at any time (even
in program/erase/write status register condition). 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 data
out on SO.

Status Register
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 is a volatile bit that is set to “1” by the WREN instruction. WEL needs to be
set to “1” before the device can accept program and erase instructions, otherwise the program and erase instructions
are ignored. WEL automatically clears to “0” when a program or erase operation completes. To ensure that both WIP
and WEL are “0” and the device is ready for the next program or erase operation, it is recommended that WIP be
confirmed to be “0” before checking that WEL is also “0”. If a program or erase instruction is applied to a protected
memory area, the instruction will be ignored and WEL will clear to “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 1. 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/BE32K) and Chip Erase (CE) instructions (only if Block Protect bits (BP3:BP0) 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 a non-volatile bit with a factory default of “0”. When QE is “0”, Quad mode
commands are ignored; pins WP#/SIO2 and HOLD#/SIO3 function as WP# and HOLD#, respectively. When QE is “1”,
Quad mode is enabled and Quad mode commands are supported along with Single and Dual mode commands. Pins
WP#/SIO2 and HOLD#/SIO3 function as SIO2 and SIO3, respectively, and their alternate pin functions are disabled.
Enabling Quad mode also disables the HPM and HOLD features.
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit, non-volatile bit, is operated together with Write Protection
(WP#/SIO2) pin for providing hardware protection mode. The hardware protection mode requires SRWD sets to 1 and
WP#/SIO2 pin signal is low stage. In the hardware protection mode, the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is
no longer accepted for execution and the SRWD bit and Block Protect bits (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) are read only. The
SRWD bit defaults to be "0".

10-7. Write Status Register (WRSR)
The WRSR instruction is for changing the values of Status 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 1. Protected Area Sizes"). The WRSR also can set or reset the Quad
enable (QE) bit and set or reset the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit in accordance with Write Protection (WP#/
SIO2) pin signal, but has no effect on bit1(WEL) and bit0 (WIP) of the status register. The WRSR instruction cannot
be executed once the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) is entered.
The sequence of issuing WRSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ send WRSR instruction code→ Status Register data
on SI→CS# goes high.
The CS# must go high exactly at the 8 bits or 16 bits data 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 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.

Software Protected Mode (SPM):
- When SRWD bit=0, no matter WP#/SIO2 is low or high, the WREN instruction may set the WEL bit and can
change the values of SRWD, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0. The protected area, which is defined by BP3, BP2, BP1,
BP0, is at software protected mode (SPM).
- When SRWD bit=1 and WP#/SIO2 is high, the WREN instruction may set the WEL bit can change the values
of SRWD, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0. The protected area, which is defined by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0, is at software
protected mode (SPM)
Note:
If SRWD bit=1 but WP#/SIO2 is low, it is impossible to write the Status Register even if the WEL bit has previously
been set. It is rejected to write the Status Register and not be executed.
Hardware Protected Mode (HPM):
- When SRWD bit=1, and then WP#/SIO2 is low (or WP#/SIO2 is low before SRWD bit=1), it enters the hardware
protected mode (HPM). The data of the protected area is protected by software protected mode by BP3, BP2,
BP1, BP0 and hardware protected mode by the WP#/SIO2 to against data modification.
Note:
To exit the hardware protected mode requires WP#/SIO2 driving high once the hardware protected mode is entered.
If the WP#/SIO2 pin is permanently connected to high, the hardware protected mode can never be entered; only can
use software protected mode via BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0.

10-8. 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.

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.
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.

10-10. Dual Read Mode (DREAD)
The DREAD instruction enable double throughput of Serial NOR 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.

10-14. 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 (Please refer to "Table 3. Memory Organization")
is a valid address for Sector Erase (SE) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the latest
eighth of address byte been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
Address bits [Am-A12] (Am is the most significant address) select the sector address.
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".
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 during the Sector Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the
tSE timing, and sets 0 when Sector Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If
the sector is protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Sector Erase (SE) instruction will not be executed on the
sector.

10-18. 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 request 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 request 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 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.
The self-timed Page Program Cycle time (tPP) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked during the Page Program cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the
tPP timing, and sets 0 when Page Program Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If the
page is protected by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits, the Page Program (PP) instruction will not be executed.

10-20. Deep Power-down (DP)
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction places the device into a minimum power consumption state, Deep Powerdown mode, in which the quiescent current is reduced from ISB1 to ISB2.
The sequence of issuing DP instruction: CS# goes low→ send DP instruction code→ CS# goes high. The CS# must
go high at the byte boundary (after exactly eighth bits of the instruction code have been latched-in); otherwise the
instruction will not be executed. SIO[3:1] are "don't care".
After CS# goes high there is a delay of tDP before the device transitions from Stand-by mode to Deep Powerdown
mode and before the current reduces from ISB1 to ISB2. Once in Deep Power-down mode, all instructions will be
ignored except Release from Deep Power-down (RDP).
The device exits Deep Power-down mode and returns to Stand-by mode if it receives a Release from Deep Powerdown (RDP) instruction, power-cycle, or reset. Please refer to "Figure 29. Release from Deep Power-down (RDP)

10-21. 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 tRES1, and Chip
Select (CS#) must remain High for at least tRES1(max), as specified in "Table 15. AC Characteristics (Temperature
= -40°C to 85°C for Industrial grade, VCC = 2.3V - 3.6V)". 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 5.
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.

10-22. Enter Secured OTP (ENSO)
The ENSO instruction is for entering the additional 4K-bit Secured OTP mode. While the 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
mode→ CS# goes high.
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".
Please note that WRSR/WRSCUR commands are not acceptable during the access of secure OTP region, once
security OTP is lock down, only read related commands are valid.
10-23. Exit Secured OTP (EXSO)
The EXSO instruction is for exiting the additional 4K-bit Secured OTP mode.
The sequence of issuing EXSO instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending EXSO instruction to exit Secured OTP
mode→ CS# goes high.
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".
10-24. Read Security Register (RDSCUR)
The RDSCUR instruction is for reading the value of Security Register bits. The Read Security Register can be read
at any time (even in program/erase/write status register/write security register condition) and continuously.
The sequence of issuing RDSCUR instruction is : CS# goes low→sending RDSCUR instruction→Security Register
data out on SO→ CS# goes high.
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".
The definition of the Security Register bits is as below:
Secured OTP Indicator bit. The Secured OTP indicator bit shows the Secured OTP area is locked by factory or
not. When it is "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.
Program Suspend Status bit. Program Suspend Bit (PSB) indicates the status of Program Suspend operation.
Users may use PSB to identify the state of flash memory. After the flash memory is suspended by Program Suspend

10-25. Write Security Register (WRSCUR)
The WRSCUR instruction is for changing the values of Security Register Bits. The WREN (Write Enable) instruction
is required before issuing WRSCUR instruction. The WRSCUR instruction may change the values of bit1 (LDSO bit)
for customer to lock-down the 1st 4K-bit Secured OTP area. Once the LDSO bit is set to "1", the 1st 4K-bit Secured
OTP area cannot be updated any more.
The sequence of issuing WRSCUR instruction is :CS# goes low→ sending WRSCUR instruction → CS# goes high.
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".
The CS# must go high exactly at the boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.

10-26. Program/Erase Suspend/Resume
The Suspend instruction interrupts a Page Program, Sector Erase, or Block Erase operation to allow access to
the memory array. After the program or erase operation has entered the suspended state, the memory array can
be read except for the page being programmed or the sector or block being erased ("Table 9. Readable Area of
Memory While a Program or Erase Operation is Suspended").

All but the 4KB Sector being erased
Block Erase (32KB)
All but the 32KB Block being erased

All but the 64KB Block being erased
When the Serial NOR Flash receives the Suspend instruction, there is a latency of tPSL or tESL ("Figure 32.
Suspend to Read/Program Latency") before the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit clears to “0” and the PSB or ESB sets
to “1”, after which the device is ready to accept one of the commands listed in "Table 10. Acceptable Commands
During Program/Erase Suspend after tPSL/tESL" (e.g. FAST READ). "Table 11. Acceptable Commands During
Suspend (tPSL/tESL not required)" lists the commands for which the tPSL and tESL latencies do not apply. For
example, RDSR, RDSCUR, RSTEN, and RST can be issued at any time after the Suspend instruction.
Security Register bit 2 (PSB) and bit 3 (ESB) can be read to check the suspend status. The PSB (Program Suspend
Bit) sets to “1” when a program operation is suspended. The ESB (Erase Suspend Bit) sets to “1” when an erase
operation is suspended. The PSB or ESB clears to “0” when the program or erase operation is resumed.

10-26-1. Erase Suspend to Program
The “Erase Suspend to Program” feature allows Page Programming while an erase operation is suspended. Page
Programming is permitted in any unprotected memory except within the sector of a suspended Sector Erase
operation or within the block of a suspended Block Erase operation. The Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be
issued before any Page Program instruction.
A Page Program operation initiated within a suspended erase cannot itself be suspended and must be allowed to
finish before the suspended erase can be resumed. The Status Register can be polled to determine the status of
the Page Program operation. The WEL and WIP bits of the Status Register will remain “1” while the Page Program
operation is in progress and will both clear to “0” when the Page Program operation completes.

10-27. Program Resume and Erase Resume
The Resume instruction resumes a suspended Page Program, Sector Erase, or Block Erase operation. Before
issuing the Resume instruction to restart a suspended erase operation, make sure that there is no Page Program
operation in progress.
Immediately after the Serial NOR Flash receives the Resume instruction, the WEL and WIP bits are set to “1” and
the PSB or ESB is cleared to “0”. The program or erase operation will continue until finished ("Figure 33. Resume
to Read Latency") or until another Suspend instruction is received. A resume-to-suspend latency of tPRS or tERS
must be observed before issuing another Suspend instruction ("Figure 31. Resume to Suspend Latency").

10-28. Software Reset (Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST))
The Software Reset operation combines two instructions: Reset-Enable (RSTEN) command and Reset (RST)
command. It returns the device to a standby mode. All the volatile bits and settings will be cleared then, which
makes the device return to the default status as power on.
To execute Reset command (RST), the Reset-Enable (RSTEN) command must be executed first to perform the
Reset operation. If there is any other command to interrupt after the Reset-Enable command, the Reset-Enable will
be invalid.
The SIO[3:1] are "don't care".
If the Reset command is executed during program or erase operation, the operation will be disabled, the data under
processing could be damaged or lost.
The reset time is different depending on the last operation. Longer latency time is required to recover from a
program operation than from other operations.

11. POWER-ON STATE
The device is at the following states when 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. When VCC is lower than VWI (POR threshold voltage value), the internal logic is reset and
the flash device has no response to any command.
For further protection on the device, if the VCC does not reach the VCC minimum level, the correct operation is not
guaranteed. The write, erase, and program command should be sent after the below 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.
Please refer to the "Figure 44. Power-up Timing".
Note:
- To stabilize the VCC level, the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to package pins is
recommended. (generally around 0.1uF)
- At power-down stage, the VCC drops below VWI level, all operations are disable and device has no response to
any command. The data corruption might occur during this stage if a write, program, erase cycle is in progress.
