Sector Erase (SE) (20H)
The Sector Erase (SE) command is for erasing the all data of the chosen sector. A Write Enable
(WREN) command must previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The
Sector Erase (SE) command is entered by driving CS# low, followed by the command code, and
3-address byte on SI. Any address inside the sector is a valid address for the Sector Erase (SE)
command. CS# must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence.
The Sector Erase command sequence: CS# goes low sending Sector Erase command 3-byte
address on SI CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure15. CS# must be driven
high after the eighth bit of the last address byte has been latched in; otherwise the Sector Erase (SE)
command is not executed. As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Sector Erase cycle (whose
duration is tSE) is initiated. While the Sector Erase cycle is in progress, the Status Register may be
read to check the value of the Write In Progress (WIP) bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is 1 during
the self-timed Sector Erase cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some unspecified time before the
cycle is completed, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. A Sector Erase (SE) command applied
to a sector which is protected by the Block Protect (SEC, TB, BP2, BP1, BP0) bit (see Table1.0&1.1)
is not executed.
