Description  
The M25PE20 and M25PE10 are 2 Mbit (256 Kb × 8 bit) and 1 Mbit (128 Kb × 8 bit) Serial  
Paged Flash memories, respectively. They are accessed by a high speed SPI-compatible  
bus.  
The memories can be written or programmed 1 to 256 Bytes at a time, using the Page Write  
or Page Program instruction. The Page Write instruction consists of an integrated Page  
Erase cycle followed by a Page Program cycle.  
The M25PE20 memory is organized as 4 sectors, each containing 256 pages. Each page is  
256 Bytes wide. Thus, the whole memory can be viewed as consisting of 1024 pages, or  
262,144 Bytes.  
The M25PE10 memory is organized as 2 sectors, each containing 256 pages. Each page is  
256 Bytes wide. Thus, the whole memory can be viewed as consisting of 512 pages, or 131,  
072 Bytes.  
The memories can be erased a page at a time, using the Page Erase instruction, a  
subsector at a time, using the SubSector Erase instruction, a sector at a time, using the  
Sector Erase instruction or as a whole, using the Bulk Erase instruction.  
The memory can be Write Protected by either Hardware or Software using a mix of volatile  
and non-volatile protection features, depending on the application needs. The protection  
granularity is of 64 Kbytes (sector granularity).

Important note  
This datasheet details the functionality of the M25PE20 and M25PE10 devices, based on  
the previous T7X process or based on the current T9HX process. Delivery of parts in T9HX  
process starts from August 2007.  
What are the changes?  
The M25PE10/M25PE20 in T9HX process offers the following additional features:  
the whole memory array is partitioned into 4-Kbyte subsectors  
five new instructions: Write Status Register (WRSR), Write to Lock Register (WRLR),  
Read Lock Register (RDLR), 4-Kbyte SubSector Erase (SSE) and Bulk Erase (BE)  
Status Register: 3 bits can be written (BP0, BP1, SRWD)  
WP input (pin 3): Write protection limits are extended, depending on the value of the  
BP0, BP1, SRWD bits. The WP Write protection remains the same if bits (BP1, BP0)  
are set to (0, 1) or (1, 0)

Signal description  
2.1  
Serial Data Output (Q)  
This output signal is used to transfer data serially out of the device. Data is shifted out on the  
falling edge of Serial Clock (C).  
2.2  
2.3  
2.4  
Serial Data Input (D)  
This input signal is used to transfer data serially into the device. It receives instructions,  
addresses, and the data to be programmed. Values are latched on the rising edge of Serial  
Clock (C).  
Serial Clock (C)  
This input signal provides the timing of the serial interface. Instructions, addresses, or data  
present at Serial Data Input (D) are latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Data on  
Serial Data Output (Q) changes after the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).  
Chip Select (S)  
When this input signal is High, the device is deselected and Serial Data Output (Q) is at high  
impedance. Unless an internal Read, Program, Erase or Write cycle is in progress, the  
device will be in the Standby Power mode (this is not the Deep Power-down mode). Driving  
Chip Select (S) Low selects the device, placing it in the Active Power mode.  
After Power-up, a falling edge on Chip Select (S) is required prior to the start of any  
instruction.  
2.5  
Reset (Reset)  
The Reset (Reset) input provides a hardware reset for the memory.  
When Reset (Reset) is driven High, the memory is in the normal operating mode. When  
Reset (Reset) is driven Low, the memory will enter the Reset mode. In this mode, the output  
is high impedance.  
Driving Reset (Reset) Low while an internal operation is in progress will affect this operation  
(write, program or erase cycle) and data may be lost.  
2.6  
Top Sector Lock (TSL)  
This input signal puts the device in the Hardware Protected mode, when Top Sector Lock  
(TSL) is connected to V , causing the top 256 pages (upper addresses) of the memory to  
SS  
become read-only (protected from write, program and erase operations).  
When Top Sector Lock (TSL) is connected to V , the top 256 pages of memory behave like  
CC  
the other pages of memory.

2.7  
Write Protect (W) or Top Sector Lock (TSL)  
The Write Protect function is available in the T9HX process only (see Important  
note on page 6).  
The Write Protect (W) input is used to freeze the size of the area of memory that is  
protected against write, program and erase instructions (as specified by the values in  
theBP1 and BP0 bits of the Status Register. See Section 6.4: Read Status Register  
(RDSR) for a description of these bits).  
The Top Sector Lock function is available in the T7X process only (see Important  
note on page 6).  
The input signal sets the device in the Hardware Protected mode, when Top Sector  
Lock (TSL) is connected to V , causing the top 256 pages (upper addresses) of the  
SS  
memory to become read-only (protected from write, program and erase operations).  
When Top Sector Lock (TSL) is connected to V , the top 256 pages of memory

SPI modes  
These devices can be driven by a microcontroller with its SPI peripheral running in either of  
the two following modes:  
CPOL=0, CPHA=0  
CPOL=1, CPHA=1  
For these two modes, input data is latched in on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C), and  
output data is available from the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).  
The difference between the two modes, as shown in Figure 5, is the clock polarity when the  
bus master is in Standby mode and not transferring data:  
C remains at 0 for (CPOL=0, CPHA=0)  
C remains at 1 for (CPOL=1, CPHA=1)

1. The Write Protect or Top Sector Lock (W or TSL) signal should be driven, High or Low as appropriate.  
Figure 4 shows an example of three devices connected to an MCU, on an SPI bus. Only one  
device is selected at a time, so only one device drives the Serial Data Output (Q) line at a  
time, the other devices are high impedance. Resistors R (represented in Figure 4) ensure  
that the M25PE20 or M25PE10 is not selected if the Bus Master leaves the S line in the high  
impedance state. As the Bus Master may enter a state where all inputs/outputs are in high  
impedance at the same time (for example, when the Bus Master is reset), the clock line (C)  
must be connected to an external pull-down resistor so that, when all inputs/outputs become  
high impedance, the S line is pulled High while the C line is pulled Low (thus ensuring that S  
and C do not become High at the same time, and so, that the t  
requirement is met).  
SHCH  
The typical value of R is 100 k, assuming that the time constant R*C (C = parasitic  
p
p
capacitance of the bus line) is shorter than the time during which the Bus Master leaves the  
SPI bus in high impedance.

Example: C = 50 pF, that is R*C = 5 µs <=> the application must ensure that the Bus

Operating features  
4.1  
Sharing the overhead of modifying data  
To write or program one (or more) data Bytes, two instructions are required: Write Enable  
(WREN), which is one Byte, and a Page Write (PW) or Page Program (PP) sequence, which  
consists of four Bytes plus data. This is followed by the internal cycle (of duration t  
or t ).  
PW  
PP  
To share this overhead, the Page Write (PW) or Page Program (PP) instruction allows up to  
256 Bytes to be programmed (changing bits from 1 to 0) or written (changing bits to 0 or 1)  
at a time, provided that they lie in consecutive addresses on the same page of memory.  
4.2  
An easy way to modify data  
The Page Write (PW) instruction provides a convenient way of modifying data (up to 256  
contiguous Bytes at a time), and simply requires the start address, and the new data in the  
instruction sequence.  
The Page Write (PW) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, and then  
transmitting the instruction Byte, three address Bytes (A23-A0) and at least one data Byte,  
and then driving Chip Select (S) High. While Chip Select (S) is being held Low, the data  
Bytes are written to the data buffer, starting at the address given in the third address Byte  
(A7-A0). When Chip Select (S) is driven High, the Write cycle starts. The remaining,  
unchanged, Bytes of the data buffer are automatically loaded with the values of the  
corresponding Bytes of the addressed memory page. The addressed memory page then  
automatically put into an Erase cycle. Finally, the addressed memory page is programmed  
with the contents of the data buffer.  
All of this buffer management is handled internally, and is transparent to the user. The user  
is given the facility of being able to alter the contents of the memory on a Byte-by-Byte basis.  
For optimized timings, it is recommended to use the Page Write (PW) instruction to write all  
consecutive targeted Bytes in a single sequence versus using several Page Write (PW)  
sequences with each containing only a few Bytes (see Page Write (PW) and Table 22: AC  
characteristics (50 MHz operation, T9HX (0.11µm) process)).  
12/60  
M25PE20, M25PE10  
Operating features  
4.3  
A fast way to modify data  
The Page Program (PP) instruction provides a fast way of modifying data (up to 256  
contiguous Bytes at a time), provided that it only involves resetting bits to 0 that had  
previously been set to 1.  
This might be:  
when the designer is programming the device for the first time  
when the designer knows that the page has already been erased by an earlier Page  
Erase (PE), SubSector Erase (SSE), Sector Erase (SE) or Bulk Erase (BE) instruction.  
This is useful, for example, when storing a fast stream of data, having first performed  
the erase cycle when time was available  
when the designer knows that the only changes involve resetting bits to 0 that are still  
set to 1. When this method is possible, it has the additional advantage of minimizing the  
number of unnecessary erase operations, and the extra stress incurred by each page.  
For optimized timings, it is recommended to use the Page Program (PP) instruction to  
program all consecutive targeted Bytes in a single sequence versus using several Page  
Program (PP) sequences with each containing only a few Bytes (see Page Program (PP)  
and Table 22: AC characteristics (50 MHz operation, T9HX (0.11µm) process)).  
4.4  
Polling during a Write, Program or Erase cycle  
A further improvement in the write, program or erase time can be achieved by not waiting for  
the worst case delay (t , t , t , t , t or t ). The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is  
PW PP PE BE  
W
SE  
provided in the Status Register so that the application program can monitor its value, polling  
it to establish when the previous cycle is complete.  
4.5  
4.6  
Reset  
An internal Power-On Reset circuit helps protect against inadvertent data writes. Addition  
protection is provided by driving Reset (Reset) Low during the Power-on process, and only  
driving it High when V has reached the correct voltage level, V (min).  
CC  
CC  
Active Power, Standby Power and Deep Power-Down modes  
When Chip Select (S) is Low, the device is selected, and in the Active Power mode.  
When Chip Select (S) is High, the device is deselected, but could remain in the Active Power  
mode until all internal cycles have completed (Program, Erase, Write). The device then goes  
in to the Standby Power mode. The device consumption drops to I  
.
CC1  
The Deep Power-down mode is entered when the specific instruction (the Deep Power-  
down (DP) instruction) is executed. The device consumption drops further to I . The  
CC2  
device remains in this mode until the Release from Deep Power-down instruction is  
executed.  
All other instructions are ignored while the device is in the Deep Power-down mode. This  
can be used as an extra software protection mechanism, when the device is not in active  
use, to protect the device from inadvertent Write, Program or Erase instructions.

Status Register  
The Status Register contains two status bits that can be read by the Read Status Register  
(RDSR) instruction. See Section 6.4: Read Status Register (RDSR) for a detailed  
description of the Status Register bits.  
4.8  
Protection modes  
The environments where non-volatile memory devices are used can be very noisy. No SPI  
device can operate correctly in the presence of excessive noise. To help combat this, the  
M25PE10 and M25PE20 feature the following data protection mechanisms:  
4.8.1  
Protocol-related protections  
Power On Reset and an internal timer (t  
changes while the power supply is outside the operating specification.  
) can provide protection against inadvertent  
PUW  
Program, Erase and Write instructions are checked that they consist of a number of  
clock pulses that is a multiple of eight, before they are accepted for execution.  
All instructions that modify data must be preceded by a Write Enable (WREN)  
instruction to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. This bit is returned to its reset state  
by the following events:  
Power-up  
Reset (RESET) driven Low  
Write Disable (WRDI) instruction completion  
Page Write (PW) instruction completion  
Page Program (PP) instruction completion  
Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction completion  
Page Erase (PE) instruction completion  
SubSector Erase (SSE) instruction completion  
Sector Erase (SE) instruction completion  
Bulk Erase (BE) instruction completion  
The Reset (Reset) signal can be driven Low to freeze and reset the internal logic. For  
the specific cases of Program and Write cycles, the designer should refer to  
Section 6.5: Write Status Register (WRSR), Section 6.9: Page Write (PW),  
Section 6.10: Page Program (PP), Section 6.12: Page Erase (PE), Section 6.14: Sector  
Erase (SE), and Section 6.13: SubSector Erase (SSE), and to Table 14: Device status  
after a Reset Low pulse.  
In addition to the low power consumption feature, the Deep Power-down mode offers  
extra software protection from inadvertent Write, Program and Erase instructions while  
the device is not in active use.

4.8.2  
Specific Hardware and Software protections  
The M25PE20/M25PE20 features a Hardware Protected mode, HPM, and two Software  
Protected modes, SPM1 and SPM2, that can be combined to protect the memory array as  
required. They are described below:  
HPM  
HPM in T7X process (see Important note on page 6):  
The Hardware Protected mode (HPM) is entered when Top Sector Lock (TSL) is driven  
Low, causing the top 256 pages of memory to become read-only. When Top Sector  
Lock (TSL) is driven High, the top 256 pages of memory behave like the other pages of  
memory and the protection depends on the Block Protect bits (see SPM2 below).  
HPM in T9HX process (see Important note on page 6):  
The Hardware Protected mode (HPM) is used to write-protect the non-volatile bits of  
the Status Register (that is, the Block Protect bits, BP1 and BP0, and the Status  
Register Write Disable bit, SRWD).  
HPM is entered by driving the Write Protect (W) signal Low with the SRWD bit set to  
High. This additional protection allows the Status Register to be hardware-protected.  
(see also Section 6.4.4: SRWD bit)  
SPM1 and SPM2  
The first Software Protected mode (SPM1) is managed by specific Lock Registers  
assigned to each 64-Kbyte sector.  
The Lock Registers can be read and written using the Read Lock Register (RDLR) and  
Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instructions.  
In each Lock Register two bits control the protection of each sector: the Write Lock Bit  
and the Lock Down Bit.  
Write Lock Bit:  
The Write Lock Bit determines whether the contents of the sector can be modified  
(using the Write, Program or Erase instructions). When the Write Lock Bit is set,  
‘1’, the sector is write protected – any operations that attempt to change the data  
in the sector will fail. When the Write Lock Bit is reset to ‘0’, the sector is not write  
protected by the Lock Register, and may be modified.  
Lock Down Bit:  
The Lock Down Bit provides a mechanism for protecting software data from simple  
hacking and malicious attack. When the Lock Down Bit is set, ‘1’, further  
modification to the Write Lock and Lock Down Bits cannot be performed. A reset,  
or power-up, is required before changes to these bits can be made. When the  
Lock Down Bit is reset, ‘0’, the Write Lock and Lock Down Bits can be changed.  
The Write Lock Bit and the Lock Down Bit are volatile and their value is reset to ‘0’ after  
a Power-Down or a Reset.

Instructions

Instructions  
All instructions, addresses and data are shifted in and out of the device, most significant bit  
first.  
Serial Data Input (D) is sampled on the first rising edge of Serial Clock (C) after Chip Select  
(S) is driven Low. Then, the one-Byte instruction code must be shifted in to the device, most  
significant bit first, on Serial Data Input (D), each bit being latched on the rising edges of  
Serial Clock (C).  
The instruction set is listed in Table 7.  
Every instruction sequence starts with a one-Byte instruction code. Depending on the  
instruction, this might be followed by address Bytes, or by data Bytes, or by both or none.  
In the case of a Read Data Bytes (READ), Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (Fast_Read),  
Read Status Register (RDSR) or Read to Lock Register (RDLR) instruction, the shifted-in  
instruction sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. Chip Select (S) can be driven High  
after any bit of the data-out sequence is being shifted out.  
In the case of a Page Write (PW), Page Program (PP), Page Erase (PE), SubSector Erase  
(SSE), Sector Erase (SE), Bulk Erase (BE), Write Enable (WREN), Write Disable (WRDI),  
Write Status Register (WRSR), Write to Lock Register (WRLR), Deep Power-down (DP) or  
Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction, Chip Select (S) must be driven High  
exactly at a byte boundary, otherwise the instruction is rejected, and is not executed. That is,  
Chip Select (S) must driven High when the number of clock pulses after Chip Select (S)  
being driven Low is an exact multiple of eight.  
All attempts to access the memory array during a Write cycle, Program cycle or Erase cycle  
are ignored, and the internal Write cycle, Program cycle or Erase cycle continues  
unaffected.

Read Identification (RDID)  
The Read Identification (RDID) instruction allows the 8-bit manufacturer identification to be  
read, followed by two Bytes of device identification. The manufacturer identification is  
assigned by JEDEC, and has the value 20h for STMicroelectronics. The device identification  
is assigned by the device manufacturer, and indicates the memory type in the first Byte  
(80h), and the memory capacity of the device in the second Byte (12h for the M25PE20 and  
11h for the M25PE10).  
Any Read Identification (RDID) instruction while an Erase or Program cycle is in progress, is  
not decoded, and has no effect on the cycle that is in progress.  
The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low. Then, the 8-bit instruction code  
for the instruction is shifted in. This is followed by the 24-bit device identification, stored in  
the memory, being shifted out on Serial Data Output (Q), each bit being shifted out during  
the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 10.  
The Read Identification (RDID) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (S) High at  
any time during data output.  
When Chip Select (S) is driven High, the device is put in the Standby Power mode. Once in  
the Standby Power mode, the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and  
execute instructions.

Read Status Register (RDSR)  
The Read Status Register (RDSR) instruction allows the Status Register to be read. The  
Status Register may be read at any time, even while a Program, Erase or Write cycle is in  
progress. When one of these cycles is in progress, it is recommended to check the Write In  
Progress (WIP) bit before sending a new instruction to the device. It is also possible to read  
the Status Register continuously, as shown in Figure 11.  
The status bits of the Status Register are as follows:  
6.4.1  
6.4.2  
6.4.3  
WIP bit  
The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates whether the memory is busy with a Write, Program  
or Erase cycle. When set to 1, such a cycle is in progress, when reset to 0 no such cycle is  
in progress.  
WEL bit  
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch.  
When set to 1 the internal Write Enable Latch is set, when set to 0 the internal Write Enable  
Latch is reset and no Write, Program or Erase instruction is accepted.  
BP1, BP0 bits  
The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to be  
software protected against Program and Erase instructions. These bits are written with the  
Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction. When one or both of the Block Protect (BP1,  
BP0) bits is set to 1, the relevant memory area (as defined in Table 3) becomes protected  
against Page Program (PP), Page Erase (PE), Sector Erase (SE) and SubSector Erase  
(SSE) instructions. The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits can be written provided that the  
Hardware Protected mode has not been set. The Bulk Erase (BE) instruction is executed if,  
and only if:  
all Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits are 0  
the Lock Register protection bits are not all set (‘1’)  
6.4.4  
SRWD bit  
The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit is operated in conjunction with the Write  
Protect (W) signal. When the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit is set to 1, and Write  
Protect (W) is driven Low, the non-volatile bits of the Status Register (SRWD, BP1, BP0)  
become read-only bits. In such a state, as the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is  
no longer accepted for execution, the definition of the size of the Write Protected area  
cannot be further modified.

Write Status Register (WRSR)  
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction allows new values to be written to the Status  
Register.  
Note:  
The Status Register BPi and SRWD bits are available in the T9HX process only. See  
Important note on page 6 for more details.  
Before the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction can be accepted, a Write Enable  
(WREN) instruction must previously have been executed. After the Write Enable (WREN)  
instruction has been decoded and executed, the device sets the Write Enable Latch (WEL).  
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low,  
followed by the instruction code and the data byte on Serial Data Input (D).  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 12.  
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction has no effect on b6, b5, b1 and b0 of the  
Status Register. b6 and b5 are always read as 0.  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the data byte has been latched in.  
If not, the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is not executed. As soon as Chip Select  
(S) is driven High, the self-timed Write Status Register cycle (whose duration is t ) is  
W
initiated. While the Write Status Register cycle is in progress, the Status Register may still  
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 Write Status Register cycle, and is 0 when it is completed.  
When the cycle is completed, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) is reset.  
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction allows the user to change the values of the  
Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits, to define the size of the area that is to be treated as read-  
only, as defined in Table 3. The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction also allows the  
user to set or reset the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit in accordance with the  
Write Protect (W) signal (see Section 6.4.4).  
If a Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is interrupted by a Reset Low pulse, the  
internal cycle of the Write Status Register operation (whose duration is t ) is first completed  
W
(provided that the supply voltage V remains within the operating range). After that the  
CC  
device enters the Reset mode (see also Table 14: Device status after a Reset Low pulse  
and Table 24: Timings after a Reset Low pulse).

1. As defined by the values in the Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits of the Status Register, as shown in Table 3.  
The protection features of the device are summarized in Table 10.  
When the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit of the Status Register is 0 (its initial  
delivery state), it is possible to write to the Status Register provided that the Write Enable  
Latch (WEL) bit has previously been set by a Write Enable (WREN) instruction, regardless  
of the whether Write Protect (W) is driven High or Low.  
When the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit of the Status Register is set to 1, two  
cases need to be considered, depending on the state of Write Protect (W):  
If Write Protect (W) is driven High, it is possible to write to the Status Register provided  
that the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit has previously been set by a Write Enable  
(WREN) instruction.  
If Write Protect (W) is driven Low, it is not possible to write to the Status Register even  
if the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit has previously been set by a Write Enable (WREN)  
instruction. (Attempts to write to the Status Register are rejected, and are not accepted  
for execution). As a consequence, all the data bytes in the memory area that are  
software protected (SPM2) by the Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits of the Status Register,  
are also hardware protected against data modification.  
Regardless of the order of the two events, the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) can be  
entered:  
by setting the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit after driving Write Protect (W)  
Low  
or by driving Write Protect (W) Low after setting the Status Register Write Disable  
(SRWD) bit.  
The only way to exit the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) once entered is to pull Write  
Protect (W) High.  
If Write Protect (W) is permanently tied High, the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) can  
never be activated, and only the Software Protected Mode (SPM2), using the Block Protect  
(BP1, BP0) bits of the Status Register, can be used.

Read Data Bytes (READ)  
The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low. The instruction code for the Read  
Data Bytes (READ) instruction is followed by a 3-Byte address (A23-A0), each bit being  
latched-in during the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Then the memory contents, at that  
address, is shifted out on Serial Data Output (Q), each bit being shifted out, at a maximum  
frequency f , during the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).  
R
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 13.  
The first Byte addressed can be at any location. The address is automatically incremented  
to the next higher address after each Byte of data is shifted out. The whole memory can,  
therefore, be read with a single Read Data Bytes (READ) instruction. When the highest  
address is reached, the address counter rolls over to 000000h, allowing the read sequence  
to be continued indefinitely.  
The Read Data Bytes (READ) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (S) High. Chip  
Select (S) can be driven High at any time during data output. Any Read Data Bytes (READ)  
instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is rejected without having  
any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ)  
The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low. The instruction code for the Read  
Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ) instruction is followed by a 3-Byte address (A23-  
A0) and a dummy Byte, each bit being latched-in during the rising edge of Serial Clock (C).  
Then the memory contents, at that address, is shifted out on Serial Data Output (Q), each  
bit being shifted out, at a maximum frequency f , during the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).

The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 14.  
The first Byte addressed can be at any location. The address is automatically incremented

therefore, be read with a single Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ)  
instruction. When the highest address is reached, the address counter rolls over to  
000000h, allowing the read sequence to be continued indefinitely.  
The Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ) instruction is terminated by driving  
Chip Select (S) High. Chip Select (S) can be driven High at any time during data output. Any  
Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ) instruction, while an Erase, Program or

Read Lock Register (RDLR)  
Note:  
The Read Lock Register (RDLR) instruction is decoded only in the T9HX process (see  
Important note on page 6).  
The device is first selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low. The instruction code for the Read  
Lock Register (RDLR) instruction is followed by a 3-byte address (A23-A0) pointing to any  
location inside the concerned sector (or subsector). Each address bit is latched-in during  
the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Then the value of the Lock Register is shifted out on  
Serial Data Output (Q), each bit being shifted out, at a maximum frequency f , during the  
C
falling edge of Serial Clock (C).  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 15.  
The Read Lock Register (RDLR) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (S) High at  
any time during data output.  
Any Read Lock Register (RDLR) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in  
progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Page Write (PW)  
The Page Write (PW) instruction allows Bytes to be written in the memory. 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 Page Write (PW) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, followed by the  
instruction code, three address Bytes and at least one data Byte on Serial Data Input (D).  
The rest of the page remains unchanged if no power failure occurs during this write cycle.  
The Page Write (PW) instruction performs a page erase cycle even if only one Byte is  
updated.  
If the 8 least significant address bits (A7-A0) are not all zero, all transmitted data exceeding  
the addressed page boundary roll over, and are written from the start address of the same  
page (the one whose 8 least significant address bits (A7-A0) are all zero). Chip Select (S)  
must be driven Low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 16.  
If more than 256 Bytes are sent to the device, previously latched data are discarded and the  
last 256 data Bytes are guaranteed to be written correctly within the same page. If less than  
256 Data Bytes are sent to device, they are correctly written at the requested addresses  
without having any effects on the other Bytes of the same page.  
For optimized timings, it is recommended to use the Page Write (PW) instruction to write all  
consecutive targeted Bytes in a single sequence versus using several Page Write (PW)  
sequences with each containing only a few Bytes (see Table 22: AC characteristics (50 MHz  
operation, T9HX (0.11µm) process)).  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the last data Byte has been  
latched in, otherwise the Page Write (PW) instruction is not executed.  
As soon as Chip Select (S) is driven High, the self-timed Page Write cycle (whose duration  
is t ) is initiated. While the Page Write cycle is in progress, the Status Register may be  
PW  
read to check the value of the Write In Progress (WIP) bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is  
1 during the self-timed Page Write cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some unspecified  
time before the cycle is complete, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.  
A Page Write (PW) instruction applied to a page that is Hardware Protected is not executed.  
Any Page Write (PW) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is  
rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Page Program (PP)  
The Page Program (PP) instruction allows Bytes to be programmed in the memory  
(changing bits from 1 to 0, only). 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 Page Program (PP) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, followed by  
the instruction code, three address Bytes and at least one data Byte on Serial Data Input  
(D). If the 8 least significant address bits (A7-A0) are not all zero, all transmitted data  
exceeding the addressed page boundary roll over, and are programmed from the start  
address of the same page (the one whose 8 least significant address bits (A7-A0) are all  
zero). Chip Select (S) must be driven Low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 17.  
If more than 256 Bytes are sent to the device, previously latched data are discarded and the  
last 256 data Bytes are guaranteed to be programmed correctly within the same page. If  
less than 256 Data Bytes are sent to device, they are correctly programmed at the  
requested addresses without having any effects on the other Bytes of the same page.  
For optimized timings, it is recommended to use the Page Program (PP) instruction to  
program all consecutive targeted Bytes in a single sequence versus using several Page  
Program (PP) sequences with each containing only a few Bytes (see Table 22: AC  
characteristics (50 MHz operation, T9HX (0.11µm) process)).  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the last data Byte has been  
latched in, otherwise the Page Program (PP) instruction is not executed.  
As soon as Chip Select (S) is driven High, the self-timed Page Program cycle (whose  
duration is t ) is initiated. While the Page Program cycle is in progress, the Status Register  
PP  
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 Page Program cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At  
some unspecified time before the cycle is complete, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is  
reset.  
A Page Program (PP) instruction applied to a page that is Hardware Protected is not  
executed.  
Any Page Program (PP) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is  
rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Write to Lock Register (WRLR)  
Note:  
The Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction is decoded only in the T9HX process (see  
Important note on page 6).  
The Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction allows bits to be changed in the Lock  
Registers. 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 Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low,  
followed by the instruction code, three address bytes (pointing to any address in the targeted  
sector and one data byte on Serial Data Input (D). The instruction sequence is shown in  
Figure 18. Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the data byte has been  
latched in, otherwise the Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction is not executed.  
Lock Register bits are volatile, and therefore do not require time to be written. When the  
Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction has been successfully executed, the Write  
Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset after a delay time less than t  
minimum value.  
SHSL  
Any Write to Lock Register (WRLR) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in  
progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Page Erase (PE)  
The Page Erase (PE) instruction sets to 1 (FFh) all bits inside the chosen page. 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 Page Erase (PE) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, followed by the  
instruction code, and three address Bytes on Serial Data Input (D). Any address inside the  
Page is a valid address for the Page Erase (PE) instruction. Chip Select (S) must be driven  
Low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 19.  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the last address Byte has been  
latched in, otherwise the Page Erase (PE) instruction is not executed. As soon as Chip  
Select (S) is driven High, the self-timed Page Erase cycle (whose duration is t ) is initiated.  
PE  
While the Page 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 Page Erase cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some unspecified time before the  
cycle is complete, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.  
A Page Erase (PE) instruction applied to a page that is Hardware Protected is not executed.  
Any Page Erase (PE) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is  
rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

SubSector Erase (SSE)  
Note:  
The SubSector Erase (SSE) instruction is decoded only in the T9HX process (see Important  
note on page 6).  
The SubSector Erase (SSE) instruction sets to 1 (FFh) all bits inside the chosen subsector.  
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 SubSector Erase (SE) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, followed by  
the instruction code, and three address bytes on Serial Data Input (D). Any address inside  
the SubSector (see Table 5) is a valid address for the SubSector Erase (SE) instruction.  
Chip Select (S) must be driven Low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 21.  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the last address byte has been  
latched in, otherwise the SubSector Erase (SE) instruction is not executed. As soon as Chip  
Select (S) is driven High, the self-timed SubSector Erase cycle (whose duration is t  
) is  
SSE  
initiated. While the SubSector 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 SubSector Erase cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some  
unspecified time before the cycle is complete, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.  
A SubSector Erase (SSE) instruction applied to a subsector that contains a page that is  
Hardware or software Protected is not executed.  
Any SubSector Erase (SSE) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in  
progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.  
If Reset (Reset) is driven Low while a SubSector Erase (SSE) cycle is in progress, the  
SubSector Erase cycle is interrupted and data may not be erased correctly (see Table 14:  
Device status after a Reset Low pulse). On Reset going Low, the device enters the Reset  
mode and a time of t  
is then required before the device can be re-selected by driving  
RHSL  
Chip Select (S) Low. For the value of t

Bulk Erase (BE)  
Note:  
The Bulk Erase (BE) instruction is decoded only in the T9HX process (see Important note  
on page 6).  
The Bulk Erase (BE) instruction sets all bits to 1 (FFh). 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 Bulk Erase (BE) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, followed by the  
instruction code on Serial Data Input (D). Chip Select (S) must be driven Low for the entire  
duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 22.  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the instruction code has been  
latched in, otherwise the Bulk Erase instruction is not executed. As soon as Chip Select (S)  
is driven High, the self-timed Bulk Erase cycle (whose duration is t ) is initiated. While the  
BE  
Bulk 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 Bulk  
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.  
Any Bulk Erase (BE) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is  
rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress. A Bulk Erase (BE)  
instruction is ignored if at least one sector or subsector is write-protected (Hardware or  
Software protection).  
If Reset (Reset) is driven Low while a Bulk Erase (BE) cycle is in progress, the Bulk Erase  
cycle is interrupted and data may not be erased correctly (see Table 14: Device status after  
a Reset Low pulse). On Reset going Low, the device enters the Reset mode and a time of  
t
is then required before the device can be re-selected by driving Chip Select (S) Low.

Deep Power-down (DP)  
Executing the Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is the only way to put the device in the  
lowest consumption mode (the Deep Power-down mode). It can also be used as an extra  
software protection mechanism, while the device is not in active use, since in this mode, the  
device ignores all Write, Program and Erase instructions.  
Driving Chip Select (S) High deselects the device, and puts the device in Standby Power  
mode (if there is no internal cycle currently in progress). But this mode is not the Deep  
Power-down mode. The Deep Power-down mode can only be entered by executing the  
Deep Power-down (DP) instruction, subsequently reducing the standby current (from I  
to  
CC1  
I
, as specified in Table 19).  
CC2  
Once the device has entered the Deep Power-down mode, all instructions are ignored  
except the Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction. This releases the device from  
this mode.  
The Deep Power-down mode automatically stops at Power-down, and the device always  
Powers-up in Standby Power mode.  
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S) Low, followed  
by the instruction code on Serial Data Input (D). Chip Select (S) must be driven Low for the  
entire duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 23.  
Chip Select (S) must be driven High after the eighth bit of the instruction code has been  
latched in, otherwise the Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is not executed. As soon as  
Chip Select (S) is driven High, it requires a delay of t before the supply current is reduced  
DP  
to I  
and the Deep Power-down mode is entered.  
CC2  
Any Deep Power-down (DP) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in  
progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Release from Deep Power-down (RDP)  
Once the device has entered the Deep Power-down mode, all instructions are ignored  
except the Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction. Executing this instruction  
takes the device out of the Deep Power-down mode.  
The Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction is entered by driving Chip Select (S)  
Low, followed by the instruction code on Serial Data Input (D). Chip Select (S) must be  
driven Low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 24.  
The Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select  
(S) High. Sending additional clock cycles on Serial Clock (C), while Chip Select (S) is driven  
Low, cause the instruction to be rejected, and not executed.  
After Chip Select (S) has been driven High, followed by a delay, t  
, the device is put in  
RDP  
Standby Power mode. Chip Select (S) must remain High at least until this period is over. The  
device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and execute instructions.  
Any Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction, while an Erase, Program or Write  
cycle is in progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

A safe configuration is provided in Section 3: SPI modes.  
To avoid data corruption and inadvertent write operations during power up, a Power On

CC  
than the Power On Reset (POR) threshold value, V – all operations are disabled, and the  
WI  
device does not respond to any instruction.  
Moreover, the device ignores all Write Enable (WREN), Page Write (PW), Page Program  
(PP), Page Erase (PE) and Sector Erase (SE) instructions until a time delay of t  
has  
PUW  
elapsed after the moment that V rises above the V threshold. However, the correct

As an extra protection, the Reset (Reset) signal could be driven Low for the whole duration  
of the Power-up and Power-down phases.  
At Power-up, the device is in the following state:  
The device is in the Standby Power mode (not the Deep Power-down mode).  
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.  
The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is reset  
The Lock Registers are reset (Write Lock bit, Lock Down bit) = (0, 0)  
Normal precautions must be taken for supply rail decoupling, to stabilize the VCC supply.  
Each device in a system should have the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to  
the package pins. (Generally, this capacitor is of the order of 100 nF).  
At Power-down, when VCC drops from the operating voltage, to below the Power On Reset  
(POR) threshold voltage, VWI, all operations are disabled and the device does not respond  
to any instruction. (The designer needs to be aware that if a Power-down occurs while a  
Write, Program or Erase cycle is in progress, some data corruption can result.)
