Write Protect (W)
The main purpose of this input signal is to freeze the size of the area of memory that is
protected against Write instructions (as specified by the values in the BP1 and BP0 bits of
the Status Register).
This pin must be driven either High or Low, and must be stable during all write instructions.

In addition, the Chip Select (S) input offers a built-in safety feature, as it is edge-sensitive as
well as level-sensitive: after power-up, the device does not become selected until a falling
edge has first been detected on Chip Select (S). This ensures that Chip Select (S) must
have been high, prior to going low to start the first operation.
