MX25L3255D
64K-byte block erase operation. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL)
bit before sending the Block Erase (BE). Any address of the block (see table 3) is a valid address for Block Erase (BE)
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.
The sequence of issuing BE instruction is: CS# goes low →sending BE instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI
→CS# goes high. (see Figure 24)
The self-timed Block Erase Cycle time (tBE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be check out during the Sector Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the
tBE timing, and sets 0 when Sector Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If the
block is protected, the Block Erase (BE) instruction will not be executed on the block.
(14) Chip Erase (CE)
The Chip Erase (CE) instruction is for erasing the data of the whole chip to be "1". A Write Enable (WREN) instruc-
tion must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Chip Erase (CE). The CS# must go
high exactly at the byte boundary, otherwise the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
The sequence of issuing CE instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending CE instruction code→ CS# goes high. (see Fig-
ure 26)
The self-timed Chip Erase Cycle time (tCE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be check out during the Chip Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the tCE
timing, and sets 0 when Chip Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.
(15) Page Program (PP)
The Page Program (PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN) instruction
must execute 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. If the entire 256 data bytes are going to be programmed, A7-A0
(The eight least significant address bits) should be set to 0. If the eight least significant address bits (A7-A0) are not
all 0, all transmitted data going beyond the end of the current page are programmed from the start address of the
same page (from the address A7-A0 are all 0).
If more than 256 bytes are sent to the device, the data of the last
256-byte is programmed at the request page and previous data will be disregarded. If less than 256 bytes are sent
to the device, the data is programmed at the requested address of the page without effect on other address 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. (see Figure 21)
The CS# must be kept to 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 ex-
ecuted.
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 check out 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, the Page Program (PP) instruction will not be executed.
