2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX25L12865F is 128Mb bits Serial Flash memory, which is configured as 16,777,216 x 8 internally. When it is in
two or four I/O mode, the structure becomes 67,108,864 bits x 2 or 33,554,432 bits x 4.
MX25L12865F features a serial peripheral interface and software protocol allowing operation on a simple 3-wire
bus while it is in single I/O mode. The three bus signals are a clock input (SCLK), a serial data input (SI), and a serial data output (SO). Serial access to the device is enabled by CS# input.
When it is in two I/O read mode, the SI pin and SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin for address/dummy bits input and data output. When it is in four I/O read mode, the SI pin, SO pin, WP# and HOLD# pin become SIO0 pin,
SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin and SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data output.
The MX25L12865F MXSMIO (Serial Multi I/O) provides sequential read operation on the whole chip.
After program/erase command is issued, auto program/erase algorithms which program/erase and verify the specified page or sector/block locations will be executed. Program command is executed on byte basis, or page (256
bytes) basis, or word basis. Erase command is executed on 4K-byte sector, 32K-byte block, or 64K-byte block, or
whole chip basis.
To provide user with ease of interface, a status register is included to indicate the status of the chip. The status read
command can be issued to detect completion status of a program or erase operation via WIP bit.
Advanced security features enhance the protection and security functions, please see security features section for
more details.
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode.
The MX25L12865F utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after
100,000 program and erase cycles.

6. DATA PROTECTION
During power transition, there may be some false system level signals which result in inadvertent erasure or
programming. The device is designed to protect itself from these accidental write cycles.
The state machine will be reset as standby mode automatically during power up. In addition, the control register
architecture of the device constrains that the memory contents can only be changed after specific command
sequences have completed successfully.
In the following, there are several features to protect the system from the accidental write cycles during VCC powerup and power-down or from system noise.
• Valid command length checking: The command length will be checked whether it is at byte base and completed
on byte boundary.
• Write Enable (WREN) command: WREN command is required to set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL) before
other command to change data.
• Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device also is under protected from
writing all commands except Release from deep power down mode command (RDP) and Read Electronic Signature command (RES), and softreset command.
• Advanced Security Features: there are some protection and security features which protect content from inadvertent write and hostile access.
I. Block lock protection
- The Software Protected Mode (SPM) use (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 and T/B) bits to allow part of memory to be
protected as read only. The protected area definition is shown as Table 2. Protected Area Sizes, the protected
areas are more flexible which may protect various area by setting value of BP0-BP3 bits.
- The Hardware Proteced Mode (HPM) use WP#/SIO2 to protect the (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits and Status Register Write Protect bit.
- In four I/O and QPI mode, the feature of HPM will be disabled.

8. DEVICE OPERATION
1. Before a command is issued, status register should be checked to ensure device is ready for the intended operation.
2. When incorrect command is inputted to this device, this device becomes standby mode and keeps the standby
mode until next CS# falling edge. In standby mode, SO pin of this device should be High-Z.
3. When correct command is inputted to this device, this device becomes active mode and keeps the active mode
until next CS# rising edge.
4. Input data is latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (SCLK) and data shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK.
The difference of Serial mode 0 and mode 3 is shown as Figure 1. Serial Modes Supported.
5. For the following instructions: RDID, RDSR, RDSCUR, READ, FAST_READ, 2READ, DREAD, 4READ, QREAD,
RDSFDP, RES, REMS, QPIID, RDDPB, RDSPB, RDPASS, RDLR, RDFBR, RDSPBLK, RDCR the shifted-in
instruction sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. After any bit of data being shifted out, the CS# can be
high. For the following instructions: WREN, WRDI, WRSR, SE, BE32K, BE, CE, PP, 4PP, DP, ENSO, EXSO,
WRSCUR, WPSEL, GBLK, GBULK, SPBLK, SUSPEND, RESUME, NOP, RSTEN, RST, EQIO, RSTQIO the
CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
6. During the progress of Write Status Register, Program, Erase operation, to access the memory array is neglected and not affect the current operation of Write Status Register, Program, Erase.

9. HOLD FEATURE
HOLD# pin signal goes low to hold any serial communications with the device. The HOLD feature will not stop the
operation of write status register, programming, or erasing in progress.
The operation of HOLD requires Chip Select (CS#) keeping low and starts on falling edge of HOLD# pin signal
while Serial Clock (SCLK) signal is being low (if Serial Clock signal is not being low, HOLD operation will not start

9-1. Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) Read Mode
QPI protocol enables user to take full advantage of Quad I/O Serial Flash by providing the Quad I/O interface in
command cycles, address cycles and as well as data output cycles.
Enable QPI mode
By issuing 35H command, the QPI mode is enable. After QPI mode enable, the device enter quad mode (4-4-4)
without QE bit status changed.

To reset the QPI mode, the RSTQIO (F5H) command is required. After the RSTQIO command is issued, the device
returns from QPI mode (4 I/O interface in command cycles) to SPI mode (1 I/O interface in command cycles).
Note:
For EQIO and RSTQIO commands, CS# high width has to follow "write spec" tSHSL for next instruction, as defined

The RDID instruction is for reading the manufacturer ID of 1-byte and followed by Device ID of 2-byte. The Macronix Manufacturer ID and Device ID are listed as Table 6. ID Definitions.
The sequence of issuing RDID instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDID instruction code→24-bits ID data out
on SO→ to end RDID operation can drive CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, therefore there's no effect on
the cycle of program/erase operation which is currently in progress. When CS# goes high, the device is at standby
stage.

10-4.Release from Deep Power-down (RDP), Read Electronic Signature (RES)
The Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction is completed by driving Chip Select (CS#) High. When Chip
Select (CS#) is driven High, the device is put in the Stand-by Power mode. If the device was not previously in the
Deep Power-down mode, the transition to the Stand-by Power mode is immediate. If the device was previously in
the Deep Power-down mode, though, the transition to the Stand-by Power mode is delayed by tRES2, and Chip
Select (CS#) must remain High for at least tRES2(max), as specified in Table 18. AC CHARACTERISTICS. Once in
the Stand-by Power mode, the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and execute instructions.
The RDP instruction is only for releasing from Deep Power Down Mode. Reset# pin goes low will release the Flash
from deep power down mode.
RES instruction is for reading out the old style of 8-bit Electronic Signature, whose values are shown as Table 6. ID
Definitions. This is not the same as RDID instruction. It is not recommended to use for new design. For new design,
please use RDID instruction.
Even in Deep power-down mode, the RDP and RES are also allowed to be executed, only except the device is in
progress of program/erase/write cycle; there's no effect on the current program/erase/write cycle in progress.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
The RES instruction is ended by CS# goes high after the ID been read out at least once. The ID outputs repeatedly if continuously send the additional clock cycles on SCLK while CS# is at low. If the device was not previously
in Deep Power-down mode, the device transition to standby mode is immediate. If the device was previously in
Deep Power-down mode, there's a delay of tRES2 to transit to standby mode, and CS# must remain to high at least
tRES2(max). Once in the standby mode, the device waits to be selected, so it can be receive, decode, and execute
instruction.

10-5.Read Electronic Manufacturer ID & Device ID (REMS)
The REMS instruction is an alternative to the Release from Power-down/Device ID instruction that provides both the
JEDEC assigned manufacturer ID and the specific device ID.
The REMS instruction is very similar to the Release from Power-down/Device ID instruction. The instruction is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and shift the instruction code "90h" followed by two dummy bytes and one bytes address (A7~A0). After which, the Manufacturer ID for Macronix (C2h) and the Device ID are shifted out on the falling
edge of SCLK with most significant bit (MSB) first. The Device ID values are listed in Table 6. ID Definitions. If the
one-byte address is initially set to 01h, then the device ID will be read first and then followed by the Manufacturer
ID. The Manufacturer and Device IDs can be read continuously, alternating from one to the other. The instruction is
completed by driving CS# high.

Status Register
The definition of the status register bits is as below:
WIP bit. The Write in Progress (WIP) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is busy in program/erase/write status register progress. When WIP bit sets to 1, which means the device is busy in program/erase/write status register
progress. When WIP bit sets to 0, which means the device is not in progress of program/erase/write status register
cycle.
WEL bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is set to internal write enable
latch. When WEL bit sets to 1, which means the internal write enable latch is set, the device can accept program/
erase/write status register instruction. When WEL bit sets to 0, which means no internal write enable latch; the device
will not accept program/erase/write status register instruction. The program/erase command will be ignored if it is applied to a protected memory area. To ensure both WIP bit & WEL bit are both set to 0 and available for next program/
erase/operations, WIP bit needs to be confirm to be 0 before polling WEL bit. After WIP bit confirmed, WEL bit needs
to be confirm to be 0.
BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits, non-volatile bits, indicate the protected area
(as defined in Table 2. Protected Area Sizes) of the device to against the program/erase instruction without hardware
protection mode being set. To write the Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits requires the Write Status Register (WRSR)
instruction to be executed. Those bits define the protected area of the memory to against Page Program (PP), Sector
Erase (SE), Block Erase 32KB (BE32K), Block Erase (BE) and Chip Erase (CE) instructions (only if Block Protect bits
(BP3:BP0) set to 0, the CE instruction can be executed). The BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits are "0" as default. Which is unprotected.
QE bit. The Quad Enable (QE) bit, non-volatile bit, while it is "0" (factory default), it performs non-Quad and WP#,
RESET# are enable. While QE is "1", it performs Quad I/O mode and WP#, RESET# are disabled. In the other
word, if the system goes into four I/O mode (QE=1), the feature of HPM and RESET# will be disabled.
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit, non-volatile bit, is operated together with Write Protection
(WP#/SIO2) pin for providing hardware protection mode. The hardware protection mode requires SRWD sets to 1 and
WP#/SIO2 pin signal is low stage. In the hardware protection mode, the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction is
no longer accepted for execution and the SRWD bit and Block Protect bits (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) are read only. The
SRWD bit defaults to be "0".

Configuration Register
The Configuration Register is able to change the default status of Flash memory. Flash memory will be configured
after the CR bit is set.
ODS bit
The output driver strength (ODS2, ODS1, ODS0) bits are volatile bits, which indicate the output driver level (as
defined in Output Driver Strength Table) of the device. The Output Driver Strength is defaulted as 30 Ohms when
delivered from factory. To write the ODS bits requires the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction to be executed.
TB bit
The Top/Bottom (TB) bit is a non-volatile OTP bit. The Top/Bottom (TB) bit is used to configure the Block Protect
area by BP bit (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0), starting from TOP or Bottom of the memory array. The TB bit is defaulted as
“0”, which means Top area protect. When it is set as “1”, the protect area will change to Bottom area of the memory
device. To write the TB bits requires the Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction to be executed.

10-9.Write Status Register (WRSR)
The WRSR instruction is for changing the values of Status Register Bits and Configuration Register Bits. Before
sending WRSR instruction, the Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be decoded and executed to set the Write
Enable Latch (WEL) bit in advance. The WRSR instruction can change the value of Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1,
BP0) bits to define the protected area of memory (as shown in Table 2. Protected Area Sizes). The WRSR also can
set or reset the Quad enable (QE) bit and set or reset the Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit in accordance
with Write Protection (WP#/SIO2) pin signal, but has no effect on bit1(WEL) and bit0 (WIP) of the status register.
The WRSR instruction cannot be executed once the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM) is entered.
The sequence of issuing WRSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending WRSR instruction code→ Status Register
data on SI→CS# goes high.
The CS# must go high exactly at the 8 bits or 16 bits data boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and
not executed. The self-timed Write Status Register cycle time (tW) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes
high. The Write in Progress (WIP) bit still can be check out during the Write Status Register cycle is in progress.
The WIP sets 1 during the tW timing, and sets 0 when Write Status Register Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.

Software Protected Mode (SPM):
- When SRWD bit=0, no matter WP#/SIO2 is low or high, the WREN instruction may set the WEL bit and can
change the values of SRWD, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0. The protected area, which is defined by BP3, BP2, BP1,
BP0 and T/B bit, is at software protected mode (SPM).
- When SRWD bit=1 and WP#/SIO2 is high, the WREN instruction may set the WEL bit can change the values
of SRWD, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0. The protected area, which is defined by BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 and T/B bit, is at
software protected mode (SPM)
Note:
If SRWD bit=1 but WP#/SIO2 is low, it is impossible to write the Status Register even if the WEL bit has previously
been set. It is rejected to write the Status Register and not be executed.
Hardware Protected Mode (HPM):
- When SRWD bit=1, and then WP#/SIO2 is low (or WP#/SIO2 is low before SRWD bit=1), it enters the hardware
protected mode (HPM). The data of the protected area is protected by software protected mode by BP3, BP2,
BP1, BP0 and T/B bit and hardware protected mode by the WP#/SIO2 to against data modification.
Note:
To exit the hardware protected mode requires WP#/SIO2 driving high once the hardware protected mode is entered.
If the WP#/SIO2 pin is permanently connected to high, the hardware protected mode can never be entered; only
can use software protected mode via BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 and T/B bit.
If the system enter QPI or set QE=1, the feature of HPM will be disabled.

10-10. Read Data Bytes (READ)
The read instruction is for reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and data shifts out on
the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fR. The first address byte can be at any location. The address
is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can
be read out at a single READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been
reached.
The sequence of issuing READ instruction is: CS# goes low→sending READ instruction code→ 3-byte address on
SI→ data out on SO→to end READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.

10-11.Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ)
The FAST_READ instruction is for quickly reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and
data of each bit shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fC. The first address byte can be at
any location. The address is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out,
so the whole memory can be read out at a single FAST_READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when
the highest address has been reached.
Read on SPI Mode The sequence of issuing FAST_READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending FAST_READ
instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→ 8 dummy cycles (default)→ data out on SO→ to end FAST_READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
In the performance-enhancing mode, P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0] ; likewise P[7:0]=A5h,5Ah,F0h or 0Fh can
make this mode continue and reduce the next 4READ instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=FFh,00h,AAh or 55h and afterwards CS# is raised and then lowered, the system then will escape from
performance enhance mode and return to normal operation.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, FAST_READ instruction is rejected without any impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

10-12. Dual Output Read Mode (DREAD)
The DREAD instruction enable double throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising
edge of SCLK, and data of every two bits (interleave on 2 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fT. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased to the next
higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single DREAD instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing DREAD instruction, the following data out will perform as 2-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing DREAD instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending DREAD instruction→3-byte address on
SIO0→ 8 dummy cycles (default) on SIO0→ data out interleave on SIO1 & SIO0→ to end DREAD operation can
use CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, DREAD instruction is rejected without any impact

10-16. Burst Read
This device supports Burst Read in both SPI and QPI mode.
To set the Burst length, following command operation is required to issue command: “C0h” in the first Byte (8-clocks),
following 4 clocks defining wrap around enable with “0h” and disable with“1h”.
The next 4 clocks are to define wrap around depth. Their definitions are as the following table:
Data

X
The wrap around unit is defined within the 256Byte page, with random initial address. It is defined as “wrap-around
mode disable” for the default state of the device. To exit wrap around, it is required to issue another “C0h” command
in which data=‘1xh”. Otherwise, wrap around status will be retained until power down or reset command. To change
wrap around depth, it is requried to issue another “C0h” command in which data=“0xh”. QPI “EBh” and SPI “EBh”
support wrap around feature after wrap around is enabled. Burst read is supported in both SPI and QPI mode. The
device is default without Burst read.

10-17. Performance Enhance Mode
The device could waive the command cycle bits if the two cycle bits after address cycle toggles.
Performance enhance mode is supported in both SPI and QPI mode.
In QPI mode, “EBh” and SPI “EBh” commands support enhance mode. The performance enhance mode is not supported in dual I/O mode.
To enter performance-enhancing mode, P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=A5h, 5Ah, F0h or 0Fh
can make this mode continue and skip the next 4READ instruction. To leave enhance mode, P[7:4] is no longer
toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=FFh, 00h, AAh or 55h along with CS# is afterwards raised and then lowered.
Issuing ”FFh” command can also exit enhance mode. The system then will leave performance enhance mode and
return to normal operation.
After entering enhance mode, following CS# go high, the device will stay in the read mode and treat CS# go low of
the first clock as address instead of command cycle.
Another sequence of issuing 4READ instruction especially useful in random access is : CS# goes low→sending 4
READ instruction→3-bytes address interleave on SIO3, SIO2, SIO1 & SIO0 →performance enhance toggling bit
P[7:0]→ 4 dummy cycles (Default) →data out still CS# goes high → CS# goes low (reduce 4 Read instruction) →
3-bytes random access address.

10-18. Performance Enhance Mode Reset
To conduct the Performance Enhance Mode Reset operation in SPI mode, FFh data cycle, 8 clocks, should be issued in 1I/O sequence. In QPI Mode, FFFFFFFFh data cycle, 8 clocks, in 4I/O should be issued.
If the system controller is being Reset during operation, the flash device will return to the standard SPI operation.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.

10-19. Fast Boot
The Fast Boot Feature provides the ability to automatically execute read operation after power on cycle or reset
without any read instruction.
A Fast Boot Register is provided on this device. It can enable the Fast Boot function and also define the number of
delay cycles and start address (where boot code being transferred). Instruction WRFBR (write fast boot register) and
ESFBR (erase fast boot register) can be used for the status configuration or alternation of the Fast Boot Register
bit. RDFBR (read fast boot register) can be used to verify the program state of the Fast Boot Register. The default
number of delay cycles is 13 cycles, and there is a 16bytes boundary address for the start of boot code access.
When CS# starts to go low, data begins to output from default address after the delay cycles (default as 13 cycles).
After CS# returns to go high, the device will go back to standard SPI mode. In the fast boot data out process from
CS# goes low to CS# goes high, a minimum of one byte must be output.
Once Fast Boot feature has been enabled, the device will automatically start a read operation after power on cycle,
reset command, or hardware reset operation.
The fast Boot feature can support Single I/O and Quad I/O interface. If the QE bit of Status Register is “0”, the data
is output by Single I/O interface. If the QE bit of Status Register is set to “1”, the data is output by Quad I/O interface.

10-20. Sector Erase (SE)
The Sector Erase (SE) instruction is for erasing the data of the chosen sector to be "1". The instruction is used for
any 4K-byte sector. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before
sending the Sector Erase (SE). Any address of the sector (see Table 4. Memory Organization) is a valid address
for Sector Erase (SE) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the least significant bit of the
address byte been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
Address bits [Am-A12] (Am is the most significant address) select the sector address.
The sequence of issuing SE instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending SE instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→
CS# goes high.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
The self-timed Sector Erase Cycle time (tSE) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked while the Sector Erase cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during the tSE
timing, and clears when Sector Erase Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is cleared. If the
Block is protected by BP bits (WPSEL=0; Block Protect Mode) or SPB/DPB (WPSEL=1; Advanced Sector Protect
Mode), the Sector Erase (SE) instruction will not be executed on the block.

The Page Program (PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN) instruction
must be executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Page Program (PP). The device programs only the last 256 data bytes sent to the device. If the entire 256 data bytes are going to be programmed, A7A0 (The eight least significant address bits) should be set to 0. The last address byte (the 8 least significant address
bits, A7-A0) should be set to 0 for 256 bytes page program. If A7-A0 are not all zero, transmitted data that exceed
page length are programmed from the starting address (24-bit address that last 8 bit are all 0) of currently selected
page. If the data bytes sent to the device exceeds 256, the last 256 data byte is programmed at the request page
and previous data will be disregarded. If the data bytes sent to the device has not exceeded 256, the data will be
programmed at the request address of the page. There will be no effort on the other data bytes of the same page.
The sequence of issuing PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→ at
least 1-byte on data on SI→ CS# goes high.
The CS# must be kept to low during the whole Page Program cycle; The CS# must go high exactly at the byte
boundary( the latest eighth bit of data being latched in), otherwise the instruction will be rejected and will not be executed.
The self-timed Page Program Cycle time (tPP) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked while the Page Program cycle is in progress. The WIP sets during the tPP
timing, and clears when Page Program Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is cleared. If the
Block is protected by BP bits (WPSEL=0; Block Protect Mode) or SPB/DPB (WPSEL=1; Advanced Sector Protect
Mode) the Page Program (PP) instruction will not be executed.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.

10-25. 4 x I/O Page Program (4PP)
The Quad Page Program (4PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit and Quad Enable (QE) bit must be set to "1" before sending the Quad Page Program (4PP). The Quad Page Programming takes four pins: SIO0, SIO1, SIO2, and
SIO3 as address and data input, which can improve programmer performance and the effectiveness of application.
The other function descriptions are as same as standard page program.
The sequence of issuing 4PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending 4PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on
SIO[3:0]→ at least 1-byte on data on SIO[3:0]→CS# goes high.
If the page is protected by BP bits (WPSEL=0; Block Protect Mode) or SPB/DPB (WPSEL=1; Advanced Sector Protect Mode), the Quad Page Program (4PP) instruction will not be executed.

10-26. Deep Power-down (DP)
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is for setting the device to minimum power consumption (the standby current is reduced from ISB1 to ISB2). The Deep Power-down mode requires the Deep Power-down (DP) instruction
to enter, during the Deep Power-down mode, the device is not active and all Write/Program/Erase instruction are
ignored. When CS# goes high, it's only in deep power-down mode not standby mode. It's different from Standby
mode.
The sequence of issuing DP instruction is: CS# goes low→sending DP instruction code→CS# goes high.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
Once the DP instruction is set, all instruction will be ignored except the Release from Deep Power-down mode (RDP)
and Read Electronic Signature (RES) instruction and softreset command. (those instructions allow the ID being
reading out). When Power-down, or software reset command the deep power-down mode automatically stops, and
when power-up, the device automatically is in standby mode. For DP instruction the CS# must go high exactly at the
byte boundary (the latest eighth bit of instruction code been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will not executed.
As soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high, a delay of tDP is required before entering the Deep Power-down mode.

10-27. Enter Secured OTP (ENSO)
The ENSO instruction is for entering the additional 4K-bit secured OTP mode. While device is in 4K-bit secured
OTPmode, main array access is not available. The additional 4K-bit secured OTP is independent from main array
and may be used to store unique serial number for system identifier. After entering the Secured OTP mode, follow
standard read or program procedure to read out the data or update data. The Secured OTP data cannot be updated
again once it is lock-down.
The sequence of issuing ENSO instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending ENSO instruction to enter Secured OTP
mode→ CS# goes high.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
Please note that after issuing ENSO command user can only access secure OTP region with standard read or program procedure. Furthermore, once security OTP is lock down, only read related commands are valid.
10-28. Exit Secured OTP (EXSO)
The EXSO instruction is for exiting the additional 4K-bit secured OTP mode.
The sequence of issuing EXSO instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending EXSO instruction to exit Secured OTP
mode→ CS# goes high.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
10-29. Read Security Register (RDSCUR)
The RDSCUR instruction is for reading the value of Security Register bits. The Read Security Register can be read
at any time (even in program/erase/write status register/write security register condition) and continuously.
The sequence of issuing RDSCUR instruction is : CS# goes low→sending RDSCUR instruction→Security Register
data out on SO→ CS# goes high.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
10-30. Write Security Register (WRSCUR)
The WRSCUR instruction is for changing the values of Security Register Bits. The WREN (Write Enable) instruction
is required before issuing WRSCUR instruction. The WRSCUR instruction may change the values of bit1 (LDSO
bit) for customer to lock-down the 4K-bit Secured OTP area. Once the LDSO bit is set to "1", the Secured OTP area
cannot be updated any more.
The sequence of issuing WRSCUR instruction is :CS# goes low→ sending WRSCUR instruction → CS# goes high.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
The CS# must go high exactly at the boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.

Security Register
The definition of the Security Register bits is as below:
Write Protection Selection bit. Please reference to Write Protection Selection
Erase Fail bit. The Erase Fail bit is a status flag, which shows the status of last Erase operation. It will be set to "1",
if the erase operation fails. It will be set to "0", if the last operation is success. Please note that it will not interrupt or
stop any operation in the flash memory.
Program Fail bit. The Program Fail bit is a status flag, which shows the status of last Program operation. It will be
set to "1", if the program operation fails or the program region is protected. It will be set to "0", if the last operation is
success. Please note that it will not interrupt or stop any operation in the flash memory.
Erase Suspend bit. Erase Suspend Bit (ESB) indicates the status of Erase Suspend operation. Users may use
ESB to identify the state of flash memory. After the flash memory is suspended by Erase Suspend command, ESB
is set to "1". ESB is cleared to "0" after erase operation resumes.
Program Suspend bit. Program Suspend Bit (PSB) indicates the status of Program Suspend operation. Users may
use PSB to identify the state of flash memory. After the flash memory is suspended by Program Suspend command,
PSB is set to "1". PSB is cleared to "0" after program operation resumes.
Secured OTP Indicator bit. The Secured OTP indicator bit shows the chip is locked by factory or not. When it is
"0", it indicates non-factory lock; "1" indicates factory-lock.
Lock-down Secured OTP (LDSO) bit. By writing WRSCUR instruction, the LDSO bit may be set to "1" for cus­
tomer lock-down purpose. However, once the bit is set to "1" (lock-down), the LDSO bit and the 4K-bit Secured OTP
area cannot be updated any more. While it is in 4K-bit secured OTP mode, main array access is not allowed.

10-31. Write Protection Selection (WPSEL)
There are two write protection methods provided on this device, (1) Block Protection (BP) mode or (2) Advanced
Sector Protection mode. The protection modes are mutually exclusive. The WPSEL bit selects which protection
mode is enabled. If WPSEL=0 (factory default), BP mode is enabled and Advanced Sector Protection mode is disabled. If WPSEL=1, Advanced Sector Protection mode is enabled and BP mode is disabled. The WPSEL command
is used to set WPSEL=1. A WREN command must be executed to set the WEL bit before sending the WPSEL command. Please note that the WPSEL bit is an OTP bit. Once WPSEL is set to “1”, it cannot be programmed
back to “0”.
When WPSEL = 0: Block Protection (BP) mode,
The memory array is write protected by the BP3~BP0 bits.
When WPSEL =1: Advanced Sector Protection mode,
Blocks are individually protected by their own SPB or DPB. On power-up, all blocks are write protected by the Dynamic Protection Bits (DPB) by default. The Advanced Sector Protection instructions WRLR, RDLR, WRPASS, RDPASS, PASSULK, WRSPB, ESSPB, SPBLK, RDSPBLK, WRDPB, RDDPB, GBLK, and GBULK are activated. The
BP3~BP0 bits of the Status Register are disabled and have no effect. Hardware protection is performed by driving
WP#=0. Once WP#=0 all blocks and sectors are write protected regardless of the state of each SPB or DPB.
The sequence of issuing WPSEL instruction is: CS# goes low → send WPSEL instruction to enable the Advanced
Sector Protect mode → CS# goes high.

10-32. Advanced Sector Protection
Advanced Sector Protection can protect individual 4KB sectors in the bottom and top 64KB of memory and protect
individual 64KB blocks in the rest of memory.
There is one non-volatile Solid Protection Bit (SPB) and one volatile Dynamic Protection Bit (DPB) assigned to each
4KB sector at the bottom and top 64KB of memory and to each 64KB block in the rest of memory. A sector or block
is write-protected from programming or erasing when its associated SPB or DPB is set to “1”. The Unprotect Solid
Protect Bit (USPB) can temporarily override and disable the write-protection provided by the SPB bits.
There are two mutually exclusive implementations of Advanced Sector Protection: Solid Protection mode (factory
default) and Password Protection mode. Solid Protection mode permits the SPB bits to be modified after power-on
or a reset. The Password Protection mode requires a valid password before allowing the SPB bits to be modified.

10-32-1. Lock Register
The Lock Register is a 16-bit one-time programmable register. Lock Register bits [2:1] select between Solid
Protection mode and Password Protection mode. When both bits are “1” (factory default), Solid Protection mode
is enabled by default. The Lock Register is programmed using the WRLR (Write Lock Register) command.
Programming Lock Register bit 1 to “0” permanently selects Solid Protection mode and permanently disables
Password Protection mode. Conversely, programming bit 2 to “0” permanently selects Password Protection mode
and permanently disables Solid Protection mode. Bits 1 and 2 cannot be programmed to “0” at the same time
otherwise the device will abort the operation. A WREN command must be executed to set the WEL bit before
sending the WRLR command.
A password must be set prior to selecting Password Protection mode. The password can be set by issuing the
WRPASS command.

10-32-2. SPB Lock Bit (SPBLK)
The SPB Lock Bit (SPBLK) is a volatile bit located in bit 0 of the SPB Lock Register. The SPBLK bit controls whether
the SPB bits can be modified or not. If SPBLK=1, the SPB bits are unprotected and can be modified. If SPBLK=0,
the SPB bits are protected (“locked”) and cannot be modified. The power-on and reset status of the SPBLK bit is
determined by Lock Register bits [2:1]. Refer to SPB Lock Register for SPBLK bit default power-on status. The
RDSPBLK command can be used to read the SPB Lock Register to determine the state of the SPBLK bit.
In Solid Protection mode, the SPBLK bit defaults to “1” after power-on or reset. When SPBLK=1, the SPB bits are
unprotected (“unlocked”) and can be modified. The SPB Lock Bit Set command can be used to write the SPBLK bit to “0”
and protect the SPB bits. A WREN command must be executed to set the WEL bit before sending the SPB Lock Bit
Set command. Once the SPBLK has been written to “0”, there is no command (except a software reset) to set the
bit back to “1”. A power-on cycle or reset is required to set the SPB lock bit back to “1”.
In Password Protection mode, the SPBLK bit defaults to “0” after power-on or reset. A valid password must
be provided to set the SPBLK bit to “1” to allow the SPBs to be modified. After the SPBs have been set to the
desired status, use the SPB Lock Bit Set command to clear the SPBLK bit back to “0” in order to prevent further
modification.

10-32-3. Solid Protection Bits
The Solid Protection Bits (SPBs) are nonvolatile bits for enabling or disabling write-protection to sectors and blocks.
The SPB bits have the same endurance as the Flash memory. An SPB is assigned to each 4KB sector in the bottom
and top 64KB of memory and to each 64KB block in the remaining memory. The factory default state of the SPB bits is “0”,
which has the sector/block write-protection disabled.
When an SPB is set to “1”, the associated sector or block is write-protected. Program and erase operations on the
sector or block will be inhibited. SPBs can be individually set to “1” by the WRSPB command. However, the SPBs
cannot be individually cleared to “0”. Issuing the ESSPB command clears all SPBs to “0”. A WREN command must
be executed to set the WEL bit before sending the WRSPB or ESSPB command.
The SPBLK bit must be “1” before any SPB can be modified. In Solid Protection mode the SPBLK bit defaults to
“1” after power-on or reset. Under Password Protection mode, the SPBLK bit defaults to “0” after power-on or reset,
and a PASSULK command with a correct password is required to set the SPBLK bit to “1”.
The SPB Lock Bit Set command clears the SPBLK bit to “0”, locking the SPB bits from further modification.
The RDSPB command reads the status of the SPB of a sector or block. The RDSPB command returns 00h if the
SPB is “0”, indicating write-protection is disabled. The RDSPB command returns FFh if the SPB is “1”, indicating
write-protection is enabled.
In Solid Protection mode, the Unprotect Solid Protect Bit (USPB) can temporarily mask the SPB bits and disable the
write-protection provided by the SPB bits.
Note: If SPBLK=0, commands to set or clear the SPB bits will be ignored.

10-32-4. Dynamic Protection Bits
The Dynamic Protection Bits (DPBs) are volatile bits for quickly and easily enabling or disabling write-protection
to sectors and blocks. A DPB is assigned to each 4KB sector in the bottom and top 64KB of memory and to each
64KB block in the rest of the memory. The DBPs can enable write-protection on a sector or block regardless of the
state of the corresponding SPB. However, the DPB bits can only unprotect sectors or blocks whose SPB bits are “0”
(unprotected).
When a DPB is “1”, the associated sector or block will be write-protected, preventing any program or erase
operation on the sector or block. All DPBs default to “1” after power-on or reset. When a DPB is cleared to “0”, the
associated sector or block will be unprotected if the corresponding SPB is also “0”.
DPB bits can be individually set to “1” or “0” by the WRDPB command. The DBP bits can also be globally cleared to
“0” with the GBULK command or globally set to “1” with the GBLK command. A WREN command must be executed
to set the WEL bit before sending the WRDPB, GBULK, or GBLK command.
The RDDPB command reads the status of the DPB of a sector or block. The RDDPB command returns 00h if the
DPB is “0”, indicating write-protection is disabled. The RDDPB command returns FFh if the DPB is “1”, indicating
write-protection is enabled.

10-32-5. Unprotect Solid Protect Bit (USPB)
The Unprotect Solid Protect Bit is a volatile bit that defaults to “1” after power-on or reset. When USPB=1, the SPBs
have their normal function. When USPB=0 all SPBs are masked and their write-protected sectors and blocks are
temporarily unprotected (as long as their corresponding DPBs are “0“). The USPB provides a means to temporarily
override the SPBs without having to issue the ESSPB and WRSPB commands to clear and set the SPBs. The
USPB can be set or cleared as often as needed.
Please refer to 10-32-7. Sector Protection States Summary Table for the sector state with the protection status of
DPB/SPB/USPB bits.
10-32-6. Gang Block Lock/Unlock (GBLK/GBULK)
These instructions are only effective if WPSEL=1. The GBLK and GBULK instructions provide a quick method to set
or clear all DPB bits at once.
The WREN (Write Enable) instruction is required before issuing the GBLK/GBULK instruction.
The sequence of issuing GBLK/GBULK instruction is: CS# goes low → send GBLK/GBULK (7Eh/98h) instruction
→CS# goes high.
The GBLK and GBULK commands are accepted in both SPI and QPI mode.
The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary, otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not be executed.

10-33. Password Protection Mode
Password Protection mode potentially provides a higher level of security than Solid Protection mode. In Password
Protection mode, the SPBLK bit defaults to “0” after a power-on cycle or reset. When SPBLK=0, the SPBs are
locked and cannot be modified. A 64-bit password must be provided to unlock the SPBs.
The PASSULK command with the correct password will set the SPBLK bit to “1” and unlock the SPB bits. After the
correct password is given, a wait of 2us is necessary for the SPB bits to unlock. The Status Register WIP bit will
clear to “0” upon completion of the PASSULK command. Once unlocked, the SPB bits can be modified. A WREN
command must be executed to set the WEL bit before sending the PASSULK command.
Several steps are required to place the device in Password Protection mode. Prior to entering the Password
Protection mode, it is necessary to set the 64-bit password and verify it. The WRPASS command writes the
password and the RDPASS command reads back the password. Password verification is permitted until the
Password Protection Mode Lock Bit has been written to “0”. Password Protection mode is activated by programming
the Password Protection Mode Lock Bit to “0”. This operation is not reversible. Once the bit is programmed, it
cannot be erased. The device remains permanently in Password Protection mode and the 64-bit password can
neither be retrieved nor reprogrammed..
The password is all “1’s” when shipped from the factory. The WRPASS command can only program password bits to “0”.
The WRPASS command cannot program “0’s” back to “1’s”. All 64-bit password combinations are valid password
options. A WREN command must be executed to set the WEL bit before sending the WRPASS command.
● The unlock operation will fail if the password provided by the PASSULK command does not match the stored
password. This will set the P_ERR bit to “1” and insert a 100us ± 20us delay before clearing the WIP bit to “0”.
● The PASSULK command is prohibited from being executed faster than once every 100us ± 20us. This restriction
makes it impractical to attempt all combinations of a 64-bit password (such an effort would take ~58 million
years). Monitor the WIP bit to determine whether the device has completed the PASSULK command.
● When a valid password is provided, the PASSULK command does not insert the 100us delay before returning
the WIP bit to zero. The SPBLK bit will set to “1” and the P_ERR bit will be “0”.
● It is not possible to set the SPBLK bit to “1” if the password had not been set prior to the Password Protection
mode being selected.

10-34. Program/Erase Suspend/Resume
The device allow the interruption of Sector-Erase, Block-Erase or Page-Program operations and conduct other
operations.
After issue suspend command, the system can determine if the device has entered the Erase-Suspended mode
through Bit2 (PSB) and Bit3 (ESB) of security register. (please refer to Table 9. Security Register Definition)
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
10-35. Erase Suspend
Erase suspend allow the interruption of all erase operations. After the device has entered Erase-Suspended mode,
the system can read any sector(s) or Block(s) except those being erased by the suspended erase operation.
Reading the sector or Block being erase suspended is invalid.
After erase suspend, WEL bit will be clear, only read related, resume and reset command can be accepted. (including:
03h, 0Bh, 3Bh, 6Bh, BBh, EBh, 5Ah, C0h, 06h, 04h, 2Bh, 9Fh, AFh, 05h, ABh, 90h, B1h, C1h, B0h, 30h, 66h, 99h,
00h, 35h, F5h, 15h, 2Dh, 27h, A7h, E2h, E0h, 16h)
If the system issues an Erase Suspend command after the sector erase operation has already begun, the device
will not enter Erase-Suspended mode until 20us time has elapsed.
Erase Suspend Bit (ESB) indicates the status of Erase Suspend operation. Users may use ESB to identify the state
of flash memory. After the flash memory is suspended by Erase Suspend command, ESB is set to "1". ESB is
cleared to "0" after erase operation resumes.
10-36. Program Suspend
Program suspend allows the interruption of all program operations. After the device has entered ProgramSuspended mode, the system can read any sector(s) or Block(s) except those be­ing programmed by the suspended
program operation. Reading the sector or Block being program suspended is invalid.
After program suspend, WEL bit will be cleared, only read related, resume and reset command can be accepted.
(including: 03h, 0Bh, 3Bh, 6Bh, BBh, EBh, 5Ah, C0h, 06h, 04h, 2Bh, 9Fh, AFh, 05h, ABh, 90h, B1h, C1h, B0h, 30h,

10-37. Write-Resume
The Write operation is being resumed when Write-Resume instruction issued. ESB or PSB (suspend status bit) in
Status register will be changed back to “0”.
The operation of Write-Resume is as follows: CS# drives low → send write resume command cycle (30H) → drive
CS# high. By polling Busy Bit in status register, the internal write operation status could be checked to be completed
or not. The user may also wait the time lag of tSE, tBE, tPP for Sector-erase, Block-erase or Page-programming.
WREN (command "06") is not required to issue before resume. Resume to another suspend operation requires
latency time of 1ms.
Please note that, if "performance enhance mode" is executed during suspend operation, the device can not
be resumed. To restart the write command, disable the "performance enhance mode" is required. After the
"performance enhance mode" is disabled, the write-resume command is effective.
10-38. No Operation (NOP)
The “No Operation” command is only able to terminate the Reset Enable (RSTEN) command and will not affect any
other command.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
during SPI mode.
10-39. Software Reset (Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST))
The Software Reset operation combines two instructions: Reset-Enable (RSTEN) command following a Reset (RST)
command. It returns the device to a standby mode. All the volatile bits and settings will be cleared then, which
makes the device return to the default status as power on.
To execute Reset command (RST), the Reset-Enable (RSTEN) command must be executed first to perform the
Reset operation. If there is any other command to interrupt after the Reset-Enable command, the Reset-Enable will
be invalid.
Both SPI (8 clocks) and QPI (2 clocks) command cycle can accept by this instruction. The SIO[3:1] are don't care
when during SPI mode.
If the Reset command is executed during program or erase operation, the operation will be disabled, the data under
processing could be damaged or lost.
The reset time is different depending on the last operation. For details, please refer to Table 14. Reset Timing(Other Operation) for tREADY2.

10-40. Read SFDP Mode (RDSFDP)
The Serial Flash Discoverable Parameter (SFDP) standard provides a consistent method of describing the functional
and feature capabilities of serial flash devices in a standard set of internal parameter tables. These parameter tables
can be interrogated by host system software to enable adjustments needed to accommodate divergent features
from multiple vendors. The concept is similar to the one found in the Introduction of JEDEC Standard, JESD68 on
CFI.
The sequence of issuing RDSFDP instruction is CS# goes low→send RDSFDP instruction (5Ah)→send 3 address
bytes on SI pin→send 1 dummy byte on SI pin→read SFDP code on SO→to end RDSFDP operation can use CS#
to high at any time during data out.
SFDP is a JEDEC Standard, JESD216.

11. RESET
Driving the RESET# pin low for a period of tRLRH or longer will reset the device. After reset cycle, the device is at
the following states:
- Standby mode
- All the volatile bits such as WEL/WIP/SRAM lock bit will return to the default status as power on.
- 3-byte address mode
If the device is under programming or erasing, driving the RESET# pin low will also terminate the operation and data
could be lost. During the resetting cycle, the SO data becomes high impedance and the current will be reduced to
minimum.

12. POWER-ON STATE
The device is at the following states after power-up:
- Standby mode (please note it is not deep power-down mode)
- Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset
The device must not be selected during power-up and power-down stage until the VCC reaches the following levels:
- VCC minimum at power-up stage and then after a delay of tVSL
- GND at power-down
Please note that a pull-up resistor on CS# may ensure a safe and proper power-up/down level.
An internal power-on reset (POR) circuit may protect the device from data corruption and inadvertent data change
during power up state. When VCC is lower than VWI (POR threshold voltage value), the internal logic is reset and
the flash device has no response to any command.
For further protection on the device, if the VCC does not reach the VCC minimum level, the correct operation is not
guaranteed. The read, write, erase, and program command should be sent after the below time delay:
- tVSL after VCC reached VCC minimum level
Please refer to the Figure 87. Power-up Timing.
Notes:
- To stabilize the VCC level, the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to package pins is recommended. (generally around 0.1uF)
- At power-down stage, the VCC drops below VWI level, all operations are disable and device has no response
to any command. The data corruption might occur during this stage if a write, program, erase cycle is in progress.

At Device Power-Up and Power-Down
AC timing illustrated in Figure 85. AC Timing at Device Power-Up and Figure 86. Power-Down Sequence are for the
supply voltages and the control signals at device power-up and power-down. If the timing in the figures is ignored,
the device will not operate correctly.
During power-up and power-down, CS# needs to follow the voltage applied on VCC to keep the device not to be
selected. The CS# can be driven low when VCC reach Vcc(min.) and wait a period of tVSL.
