7.20. Deep Power-Down (DP) (B9H)
http://www.elm-tech.com
Executing the Deep Power-Down (DP) command is the only way to put the device in the lowest consumption
mode (the Deep Power-Down Mode). It can also be used as an extra software protection mechanism, while
the device is not in active use, since in this mode, the device ignores all Write, Program and Erase commands.
Driving CS# high deselects the device, and puts the device in the Standby Mode (if there is no internal cycle
currently in progress). But this mode is not the Deep Power-Down Mode. The Deep Power-Down Mode can
only be entered by executing the Deep Power-Down (DP) command. Once the device has entered the Deep
Power-Down Mode, all commands are ignored except the Release from Deep Power-Down and Read Device
ID (RDI) command. This releases the device from this mode. The Release from Deep Power-Down and Read
Device ID (RDI) command also allows the Device ID of the device to be output on SO.
The Deep Power-Down Mode automatically stops at Power-Down, and the device always Power-Up in
the Standby Mode. The Deep Power-Down (DP) command is entered by driving CS# low, followed by the
command code on SI. CS# must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence.
The Deep Power-Down command sequence: CS# goes low → sending Deep Power-Down command → CS#
goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure21. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of the
command code has been latched in; otherwise the Deep Power-Down (DP) command is not executed. As soon
as CS# is driven high, it requires a delay of tDP before the supply current is reduced to ICC2 and the Deep Power-
Down Mode is entered. Any Deep Power-Down (DP) command, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in
progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.
