2. Data protection at V_CC on/off
When V_CC is turned on or off, noise on the control pins generated by external circuits (CPU, etc) may
act as a trigger and turn the EEPROM to program mode by mistake. To prevent this unintentional
programming, the EEPROM must be kept in an unprogrammable state while the CPU is in an unstable
state.
Note: The EEPROM shoud be kept in unprogrammable state during V_CC on/off by using CPU RESET
signal.

2.1 Protection by CE, OE, WE
To realize the unprogrammable state, the input level of control pins must be held as shown in the
table below.

2.2 Protection by RES (only the HN58V66A series)
The unprogrammable state can be realized by that the CPU’s reset signal inputs directly to the
EEPROM’s RES pin. RES should be kept V_SS level during V_CC on/off. The EEPROM breaks off
programming operation when RES becomes low, programming operation doesn’t finish correctly
in case that RES falls low during programming operation. RES should be kept high for 10 ms
after the last data input.
