Info rmat i o n

The Erase Suspend/Erase Resume feature enables the user to put erase on hold for any period

of time to read data from, or program data to, any sector that is not selected for erasure. True

background erase can thus be achieved.

The hardware RESET# pin terminates any operation in progress and resets the internal state

machine to reading array data. The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset circuitry. A sys-

tem reset would thus also reset the device, enabling the system microprocessor to read the

boot-up firmware from the Flash memory.

The device offers two power-saving features. When addresses have been stable for a specified

amount of time, the device enters the automatic sleep mode. The system can also place the

device into the standby mode. Power consumption is greatly reduced in both these modes.

The Spansion Flash technology combines years of Flash memory manufacturing experience to

produce the highest levels of quality, reliability and cost effectiveness. The device electrically

erases all bits within a sector simultaneously via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling. The data is

programmed using hot electron injection.
