Advance Information
program operation. Refer to the Write Operation Status section for more
information.
In the erase-suspend-read mode, the system can also issue the autoselect com-
mand sequence. Refer to the “Autoselect Mode” section on page 31 and
“Autoselect Command Sequence” section on page 45 sections for details.
To resume the sector erase operation, the system must write the Erase Resume
command. Further writes of the Resume command are ignored. Another Erase
Suspend command can be written after the chip has resumed erasing.
Note:During an erase operation, this flash device performs multiple internal operations which are invisible to the system. When an
erase operation is suspended, any of the internal operations that were not fully completed must be restarted. As such, if this flash
device is continually issued suspend/resume commands in rapid succession, erase progress will be impeded as a function of the
number of suspends. The result will be a longer cumulative erase time than without suspends. Note that the additional suspends do
not affect device reliability or future performance. In most systems rapid erase/suspend activity occurs only briefly. In such cases,
erase performance will not be significantly impacted.
