Pin Functions
1. CS (Chip select input) pin
This is an input pin to set a chip in the select status. In the "H" input level, the device is in the non-select status and its
output is high impedance. The device is in standby as long as it is not in Write inside. The device goes in active by
setting the chip select to "L". Input any instruction code after power-on and a falling of chip select.
2. SI (Serial data input) pin
This pin is to input serial data. This pin receives an instruction code, an address and Write data. This pin latches data
at rising edge of serial clock.
3. SO (Serial data output) pin
This pin is to output serial data. The data output changes according to falling edge of serial clock.
4. SCK (Serial clock input) pin
This is a clock input pin to set the timing of serial data. An instruction code, an address and Write data are received at
a rising edge of clock. Data is output during falling edge of clock.
5. WP (Write protect input) pin
Write protect is purposed to protect the area size against the Write instruction (BP1, BP0 in the status register). Fix
this pin "H" or "L" not to set it in the floating state.
Refer to " Protect Operation" for details.
6. HOLD (HOLD input) pin
This pin is used to pause serial communications without setting the device in the non-select status.
In the hold status, the serial output goes in high impedance, the serial input and the serial clock go in "Don’t care".
During the hold operation, be sure to set the device in active by setting the chip select ( CS pin) to "L".
Refer to " Hold Operation" for details.
Initial Delivery State
Initial delivery state of all addresses is "FFh".
Moreover, initial delivery state of the status register nonvolatile memory is as follows.
SRWD = 0
BP1 = 0
BP0 = 0
ECC Function (Error correction function)
S-25CM01A Series adds 6 ECC bits for error correction to each 4 bytes with the same address of A16 to A2. The ECC
function can make correction and output correct data even if wrong data of 1 bit is in the 4 bytes when reading.
In addition, the S-25CM01A Series rewrites the 4 bytes used as the rewriting minimum unit and 6 ECC bits if only 1 byte
data is input.
Therefore, it is recommended to rewrite data of each 4 bytes with the same address of A16 to A2 in order to get the
maximum endurance in the application in which the data is rewrote frequently.

Figure 8 Organization of Status Register
The status / control bits of the status register as follows.
1. 1 SRWD (b7) : Status Register Write Disable
Bit SRWD operates in conjunction with the Write protect signal ( WP ). With a combination of bit SRWD and signal
WP (SRWD = "1", WP = "L"), this device goes in Hardware Protect status. In this case, the bits composed of the
nonvolatile bit in the status register (SRWD, BP1, BP0) go in Read Only, so that the WRSR instruction is not be
performed.
1. 2 BP1, BP0 (b3, b2) : Block Protect
Bit BP1 and BP0 are composed of the nonvolatile memory. The area size of Software Protect against WRITE
instruction is defined by them. Rewriting these bits is possible by the WRSR instruction. To protect the memory area
against the WRITE instruction, set either or both of bit BP1 and BP0 to "1". Rewriting bit BP1 and BP0 is possible
unless they are in Hardware Protect mode. Refer to " Protect Operation" for details of "Block Protect".
1. 3 WEL (b1) : Write Enable Latch
Bit WEL shows the status of internal Write Enable Latch. Bit WEL is set by the WREN instruction only. If bit WEL is
"1", this is the status that Write Enable Latch is set. If bit WEL is "0", Write Enable Latch is in reset, so that the
device does not receive the WRITE or WRSR instruction. Bit WEL is reset after these operations;

4. Read the status register (RDSR)
Reading data in the status register is possible by the RDSR instruction. During the Write operation, it is possible to
confirm the progress by checking bit WIP.
Set the chip select ( CS ) "L" first. After that, input the instruction code from serial data input (SI). The status of bit in the
status register is output from serial data output (SO). Sequential Read is available for the status register. To stop the
Read cycle, set CS to "H".
It is possible to read the status register always. The bits in it are valid and can be read by RDSR even in the Write cycle.
The 2 bits WEL and WIP are updated during the write cycle. The updated nonvolatile bits SRWD, BP1 and BP0 can be
acquired by performing a new RDSR instruction after verifying the completion of the write cycle.

5. Write in the status register (WRSR)
The values of status register (SRWD, BP1, BP0) can be rewritten by inputting the WRSR instruction. But b6, b5, b4, b1,
b0 of status register cannot be rewritten. b6 to 4 are always data "0" when reading the status register.
Before inputting the WRSR instruction, set bit WEL by the WREN instruction. The operation of WRSR is shown below.
Set the chip select ( CS ) "L" first. After that, input the instruction code and data from serial data input (SI). To start
WRSR Write (tPR), set the chip select ( CS ) to "H" after inputting data or before inputting a rising of the next serial clock.
It is possible to confirm the operation status by reading the value of bit WIP during WRSR Write. Bit WIP is "1" during
Write, "0" during any other status. Bit WEL is reset when Write is completed.
With the WRSR instruction, the values of BP1 and BP0; which determine the area size the users can handle as the
Read Only memory; can be changed. Besides bit SRWD can be set or reset by the WRSR instruction depending on
the status of Write protect WP . With a combination of bit SRWD and Write protect WP , the device can be set in
Hardware Protect mode (HPM). In this case, the WRSR instruction is not be performed (Refer to " Protect
Operation").
Bit SRWD and BP1, BP0 keep the value which is the one prior to the WRSR instruction during the WRSR instruction.
The newly updated value is changed when the WRSR instruction has completed.
To cancel the WRSR instruction, input the clock different from a specified value (n = 16 clocks) while CS is in "L".

6. Read memory data (READ)
The READ operation is shown below. Input the instruction code and the address from serial data input (SI) after
inputting "L" to the chip select ( CS ). The input address is loaded to the internal address counter, and data in the
address is output from the serial data output (SO).
Next, by inputting the serial clock (SCK) keeping the chip select ( CS ) in "L", the address is automatically incremented
so that data in the following address is sequentially output. The address counter rolls over to the first address by
increment in the last address.
To finish the Read cycle, set CS to "H". It is possible to raise the chip select always during the cycle. During Write, the
READ instruction code is not be accepted or operated.

serial data input (SI) after inputting "L" to the chip select ( CS ). To start WRITE (tPR), set the chip select ( CS ) to "H"
after inputting data or before inputting a rising of the next serial clock. Bit WIP and WEL are reset to "0" when Write has
completed.
The S-25CM01A can Page Write of 256 bytes. Its function to transmit data is as same as Byte Write basically, but it
operates Page Write by receiving sequential 8-bit Write data as much data as page size has. Input the instruction
code, the address and data from serial data input (SI) after inputting "L" in CS , as the WRITE operation (page) shown
in Figure 16. Input the next data while keeping CS in "L". After that, repeat inputting data of 8-bit sequentially. At the
end, by setting CS to "H", the WRITE operation starts (tPR).
8 of the lower bits in the address are automatically incremented every time when receiving Write data of 8-bit. Thus,
even if Write data exceeds 256 bytes, the higher bits in the address do not change. And 8 of lower bits in the address
roll over so that Write data which is previously input is overwritten.
These are cases when the WRITE instruction is not accepted or operated.
Bit WEL is not set to "1" (not set to "1" beforehand immediately before the WRITE instruction)
During Write
The address to be written is in the protect area by BP1 and BP0.
To cancel the WRITE instruction, input the clock different from a specified value (n = 32+m 8 clocks) while CS is in "L".

Protect Operation
Table 14 shows the block settings of Write protect. Table 15 shows the protect operation for the device. As long as bit
SRWD, the Status Register Write Disable bit, in the status register is reset to "0" (it is in reset before the shipment), the
value of status register can be changed.
These are two statues when bit SRWD is set to "1".
Write in the status register is possible; Write protect ( WP ) is in "H".
Write in the status register is impossible; Write protect ( WP ) is in "L". Therefore the Write protect area which is set
by protect bit (BP1, BP0) in the status register cannot be changed.
These operations are to set Hardware Protect (HPM).
After setting bit SRWD, set Write protect ( WP ) to "L".
Set bit SRWD completed setting Write protect ( WP ) to "L".
Figure 6 and 7 show the Valid timing in Write protect and Invalid timing in Write protect during the cycle Write to the
status register.
By inputting "H" to Write protect ( WP ), Hardware Protect (HPM) is released. If the Write protect ( WP ) is "H",
Hardware Protect (HPM) does not function, Software Protect (SPM) which is set by the protect bits in the status
register (BP1, BP0) only works.

Hold Operation
The hold operation is used to pause serial communications without setting the device in the non-select status. In the
hold status, the serial data output goes in high impedance, and both of the serial data input and the serial clock go in
"Don’t care". Be sure to set the chip select ( CS ) to "L" to set the device in the select status during the hold status.
Generally, during the hold status, the device holds the select status. But if setting the device in the non-select status,
the users can finish the operation even in progress.
Figure 17 shows the hold operation. Set Hold ( HOLD ) to "L" when the serial clock (SCK) is in "L", Hold ( HOLD ) is
switched at the same time the hold status starts. If setting Hold ( HOLD ) to "H", Hold ( HOLD ) is switched at the same
time the hold status ends.
Set Hold ( HOLD ) to "L" when the serial clock (SCK) is in "H"; the hold status starts when the serial clock goes in "L"
after Hold ( HOLD ) is switched. If setting Hold ( HOLD ) to "H", the hold status ends when the serial clock goes in "L"
after Hold ( HOLD ) is switched.

Write Protect Function during the Low Power Supply Voltage
The S-25CM01A has a built-in detection circuit which operates with the low power supply voltage. The S-25CM01A
cancels the Write operation (WRITE, WRSR) when the power supply voltage drops and power-on, at the same time,
goes in the Write protect status (WRDI) automatically to reset bit WEL. Its detection and release voltages are 1.50 V
typ. (Refer to Figure 18).
To operate Write, after the power supply voltage dropped once but rose to the voltage level which allows Write again,
be sure to set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL) before operating Write (WRITE, WRSR).
In the Write operation, data in the address written during the low power supply voltage is not assured.

Input Pin and Output Pin
1. Connection of input pin
All input pins in the S-25CM01A have the CMOS structure. Do not set these pins in high impedance during operation
when you design. Especially, set the CS input in the non-select status "H" during power-on/off and standby. The error
Write does not occur as long as the CS pin is in the non-select status "H". Set the CS pin to VCC via a resistor (the
pull-up resistor of 10 k to 100 k).
If the CS pin and the SCK pin change from "L" to "H" simultaneously, data may be input from the SI pin.
To prevent the error for sure, it is recommended to pull down the SCK pin to GND. In addition, it is recommended to
pull up the SI pin, the WP pin and the HOLD pin to VCC, or pull down these pins to GND, respectively. Connecting the
WP pin and the HOLD pin to VCC directly is also possible when these pins are not in use.
2. Equivalent circuit of input pin and output pin
Figure 19 and 20 show the equivalent circuits of input pins in the S-25CM01A. A pull-up and pull-down elements are
not included in each input pin, pay attention not to set it in the floating state when you design.
Figure 21 shows the equivalent circuit of the output pin. This pin has the tri-state output of "H" level / "L" level / high
impedance.

3. Precautions for use
Absolute maximum ratings: Do not operate these ICs in excess of the absolute maximum ratings (as listed on the
data sheet). Exceeding the supply voltage rating can cause latch-up. Perform operations after confirming the
detailed operation condition in the data sheet.
Operations with moisture on the S-25CM01A pins may occur malfunction by short-circuit between pins. Especially,
in occasions like picking the S-25CM01A up from low temperature tank during the evaluation. Be sure that not
remain frost on the S-25CM01A’s pins to prevent malfunction by short-circuit.
Also attention should be paid in using on environment, which is easy to dew for the same reason.
