1. Purpose
EN25B20 will EOL and be replaced by EN25F20 which can offer uniform 4Kbytes
sector and allow for greater flexibility in applications. This note highlights the difference
between those two devices. It helps customers to migrate into new device.

Note : In the condition of erasing the boot sector of EN25B20 to be replaced with EN25F20, one or
multiple sector erase command (20h) must be issued in EN25F20 depending on the sector size.
The correlation table is shown below.

Instruction Set Comparison
A Sector Erase (20h) instruction is implemented in EN25F20 for 4KB sector erase.
A Block Erase (D8h) instruction in EN25F20 is compatible with EN25B20 for 64KB
block erase and the chip erase instruction is same between two devices.
