7.27. High Performance Mode (HPM) (A3H)

The High Performance Mode (HPM) command must be executed prior to Dual or Quad I/O commands when

operating at high frequencies (see fR and fC1 in AC Electrical Characteristics). This command allows pre-

charging of internal charge pumps so the voltages required for accessing the flash memory array are readily

available. The command sequence: CS# goes low → Sending A3H command → Sending 3-dummy byte →

CS# goes high. See Figure32. After the HPM command is executed, the device will maintain a slightly higher

standby current (Icc8) than standard SPI operation. The Release from Power-Down or HPM command (ABH)

can be used to return to standard SPI standby current (Icc1). In addition, Power-Down command (B9H) will

also release the device from HPM mode back to standard SPI standby state.

7.28. Program/Erase Suspend (PES) (75H)

The Program/Erase Suspend command “75H”, allows the system to interrupt a page program or sector/

block erase operation and then read data from any other sector or block. The Write Status Register command

(01H/31H/11H) and Erase/Program Security Registers command (44H, 42H) and Erase commands (20H, 52H,

D8H, C7H, 60H) and Page Program command (02H/32H) are not allowed during Program/Erase suspend.

Program/Erase Suspend is valid only during the page program or sector/block erase operation. A maximum of
