All of the input and out put signals must be held
High or Low (according to voltages of V
or VOL, as specified in Table 13. to Table 17.).
These signals are described next.
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).
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 written.
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).

CONNECTI NG TO THE SPI BUS
These devices are fully compatible with the SPI
protocol.
All instructions, addresses and input data bytes
are shifted in to the device, most significant bit
first. The Serial Data Input (D) is sampled on the
first rising edge of the Serial Clock (C) after Chip
Selec t ( S
) goes Low.
All output data bytes are shifted out of the device,
most significant bit first. The Serial Data Output

Status Register
Figure 7. shows the position of the Status Register
in the control logic of the d evice. The Status Register contains a number of status and cont rol bits
that can be read or set (as appropriate) by specific
instructions.
WIP bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates
whether the memory is busy with a Write or Write
Status Register cycle.
WEL bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit i ndicates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch.
BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits
are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to
be software protected against Write instructions.
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable
(SRWD) bit is operated in conjunction with the
Write Protect (W
) signal. The Status Register
Write Disable (SRWD) bit an d Write Protect (W
signal allow the device to be put in the Hardware
Protected mode. In this mode, the non-volatile bits
of the Status Register (SRWD, BP1, BP0) become
read-only bits.

Data Protec ti on a n d Protocol Cont rol
Non-volatile memory devices can be used in environments that are particularly noisy, and within applications that could experience problems if
memory bytes are corrupted. Consequently, the
device features the following data protection
mechanisms:
■Write and Write Status Register 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
–Write Disable (WRDI) instruction
completion
–Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction
completion
)
–Write (WRITE) instruction completion
■The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits allow part of
the memory to be configured as read-only.
This is the Software Protected Mode (SPM).
■The Write Protect (W) signal allows the Block
Protect (BP1, BP0) bits to be protected. This is
the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM).
For any instruction to be accepted, and e xe cuted,
Chip Select (S
) must be driven High after the rising
edge of Serial Clock (C) for the last bit of the instruction, and before the next rising edge of Serial
Clock (C).
Two points need to be no ted in the p revious sentence:
–The ‘last bit of the instruction’ can be the
eighth bit of the instruction code, or the eighth
bit of a data byte, depending on the instruction
(except for Read Status Register (RDSR) and
Read (READ) instructions).
–The ‘next rising edge of Serial Clock (C)’ might
(or might not) be the next bus transaction for
some other device on the SPI bus.
Each instruction starts with a single-byte code, as
summarized in Table 5..
If an invalid instruction is s ent (one not con tained
in Table 5.), the device automatically deselects itself.

Write Enable (WREN)
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit must be set prior to each WRITE and WRSR instruction. The only
way to do this is to send a Write Enable instruction
to the device.

One way of resetting the Write Enable Latch

the device.

The device then enters a wait state. It waits for a
the device to be deselected, by Chip Select (S
ing driven High.
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit, in fact, becomes reset by any of the following events:
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
Write or Write Statu s Register cycl e is i n progress .
When one of these cycles is in progress, it is recommended to check the Write In Prog ress (WIP)
bit before sending a new instruction to the device.
It is also possible to read the Status Register continuously, as shown in Figure 10..
The status and control bits of t he Status Register
are as follows:
WIP bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates
whether the memory is busy with a Write or Write
Status Register 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 i ndicates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch.
When set to 1 the internal Write Enable Latch is
set, when set to 0 t he i nternal Write Enable Latch
is reset and no Write or Write Status Register instruction is accepted.
Figure 10. Read Status Register (RDSR) Sequence
BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits
are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to
be software protected against Write instructions.
These bits are written with the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction. When one or bot h of the
Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits is set to 1, the relevant memory area (as defined in Table 3.) be-
comes protected against Write (WRITE)
instructions. The Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits
can be written provided that the Hardware Protected mode has not been set.
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable
(SRWD) bit is operated in conjunction with the
Write Protect (W
) signal. The Status Register
Write Disable (SRWD) bit an d Write Protect (W
signal allow the device to be put in the Hardware
Protected mode (when t he Status Register Write
Disable (SRWD) bit is set to 1, and Write Protect
) is driven Low). In this mode, the non-volatile
(W
bits of the Status Register (SRWD, BP1, BP0) become read-only bits and the Write Status Register
(WRSR) instruction is no longer accepted for execution.

Write Status Register (WRSR)
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction allows new values to be written to the Status Register. Before it can be accepted, a Write Enable
(WREN) instruction must previously have been executed. After the Write Enable (WREN) instruction
has been decoded and ex ecuted, 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 11..
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction has
no effect on b6, b5, b4, b1 and b0 of the Status
Register. b6, b5 and b4 are always read as 0.
Chip Select (S
) must be driven High after the rising
edge of Serial Clock (C) that latches in the eighth
bit of the data byte, and before the next rising edge
of Serial Clock (C). Otherwise, the Write Status
Register (WRSR) instruction is not e xecuted. As
soon as Chip Select (S
) is driven High, the sel f-
timed Write Status Register cycle (whose durat ion
) is initiated. While the Write Status Register
is t
W
cycle is in progress, the Sta tus 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 s elf-timed Write Statu s Reg ister 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 def ine the size of the
area that is to be trea ted as rea d-only, as defined
in Table 3..
The Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction also
allows the user to set or reset the S tatus Regi ster
Write Disable (SRWD) bit in acc ordance with the
Write Protect (W
) signal. The Status Register
Write Disable (SRWD) bit an d Write Protect (W
signal allow the device to be put in the Hardware
Protected Mode (HPM). The Write Status Register
(WRSR) instruction is not executed once the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) is entered.
The contents of the Status Register Write Di sable
(SRWD) and Block Protect (BP1, BP0) bits are frozen at their current values from just before the
start of the execution of Write Status Register
(WRSR) instruction. The new, updated, values
take effect at the moment of completion of the execution of Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction.

Read from Memory Array (READ)
As shown in Figure 12., to send this instruction t o
the device, Chip Se l e ct (S
) is first driven Low. The
bits of the instruction byte and address byt es are
then shifted in, on Serial Data Input (D). The address is loaded into an internal address register,
and the byte of data at that address is shifted out,
on Serial Data Output (Q).
If Chip Select (S
) continues to be driven Low, the
internal address register is automatically incremented, and the byte of data at the new address is
shifted out.
When the highest address is reached, the address
counter rolls over to zero, allowing the Read cycle
to be continued indefinitely. The whole memory
can, therefore, be read with a single READ instruction.
The Read cycle is terminated by driving C hip Select (S

As shown in Figure 13., to send this instruction t o
the device, Chip Se l e ct (S
) is first driven Low. The
bits of the instruction byte, address byte, and at
least one data byte are t hen shifted in, on Serial
Data Input (D).
The instruction is terminated by driving Chip Se-
) High at a byte boundary of the input data.
lect (S
In the case of Figure 13., this occurs after the
eighth bit of the data byte ha s been latched in, indicating that the instruction is being used to write
a single byte. The self-timed Write cycle starts,
and continues for a period t
(as specified in Ta-
WC
ble 18. to Table 22.), at the end of which the Write
in Progress (WIP) bit is reset to 0.
If, though, Chip Select (S
) continues to be driven
Low, as shown in Figure 14., the next byte of i nput
data is shifted in, s o that m ore than a single byte,
starting from the given address towards the end of
the same page, can be written in a single internal
Write cycle.
Figure 13. Byte Write (WRITE) Sequence
Each time a new data byte is shifted in, the le ast
significant bits of the internal address counter are
incremented. If the num ber of data bytes s ent to
the device exceeds t he page b oundary, the in ternal address counter rolls over to t he beginning of
the page, and the previous data there are overwritten with the incoming data. (The page size of
these de vice s is 64 bytes).
The instruction is not accepted, and is not executed, under the following conditions:
–if the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit has not
been set to 1 (by executing a Write Enable
instruction just before)
–if a Write cycle is already in progress
–if the device has not been deselected, by Chip
Select (S

boundary (after the eighth bit, b0, of the last
data byte that has been latched in)
