 Write Protect Function during the Low Power Supply Voltage
The S-93A86A provides a built-in detector to detect a low power supply voltage and disable writing. When the power
supply voltage is low or at power application, the write instructions (WRITE, ERASE, WRAL, ERAL) are cancelled, and
the write disable state (EWDS) is automatically set. The detection voltage is 1.20 V typ., the release voltage is 1.35 V
typ., and there is a hysteresis of about 0.15 V (Refer to Figure 12). Therefore, when a write operation is performed after
the power supply voltage has dropped and then risen again up to the level at which writing is possible, a write enable
instruction (EWEN) must be sent before a write instruction (WRITE, ERASE, WRAL, ERAL) is executed.
When the power supply voltage drops during a write operation, the data being written to an address at that time is not
guaranteed.
