Number of Erase Block Regions within device

bit 7 to 0 = x = number of Erase Block Regions

Note:1. x = 0 means no erase blocking, i.e. the device erases at once in "bulk."

2. x specifies the number of regions within the device containing one or more con-

tiguous Erase Blocks of the same size.

For example, a 128KB device (1Mb)

having blocking of 16KB, 8KB, four 2KB, two 16KB, and one 64KB is considered

to have 5 Erase Block Regions.

Even though two regions both contain 16KB

blocks, the fact that they are not contiguous means they are separate Erase

Block Regions.

3. By definition, symmetrically block devices have only one blocking region.

Erase Block Region Information

bit 31 to 16 = z, where the Erase Block(s) within this Region are (z) times 256 bytes in

size. The value z = 0 is used for 128 byte block size.

e.g. for 64KB block size, z = 0100h = 256 => 256 * 256 = 64K

bit 15 to 0 = y, where y+1 = Number of Erase Blocks of identical size within the Erase

Block Region:

e.g.

y = D15-D0 = FFFFh => y+1 = 64K blocks [maximum number]

y = 0 means no blocking (# blocks = y+1 = "1 block")

Note: y = 0 value must be used with number of block regions of one as indicated

by (x) = 0
