5.16 Serial Flash Discoverable
Parameters (SFDP)
The Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP)
contain information describing the characteristics of the
device. This allows device-independent, JEDEC ID-
independent, and forward/backward compatible soft-
ware support for all future Serial Flash device families.
See Table 11-1 on page 66 for address and data val-
ues.
Initiate SFDP by executing an 8-bit command, 5AH, fol-
lowed by address bits A[23-0] and a dummy byte. CE#
must remain active low for the duration of the SFDP
cycle. For the SFDP sequence, see Figure 5-18.

5.17 Sector-Erase
The Sector-Erase instruction clears all bits in the
selected 4 KByte sector to ‘1,’ but it does not change a
protected memory area. Prior to any write operation,
the Write-Enable (WREN) instruction must be exe-
cuted.
To execute a Sector-Erase operation, the host drives
CE# low, then sends the Sector Erase command cycle
(20H) and three address cycles, and then drives CE#
high. Address bits [A
MS
:A
12
] (A
MS
= Most Significant
Address) determine the sector address (SA
X
); the
remaining address bits can be V
IL
or V
IH
. To identify the
completion of the internal, self-timed, Write operation,
poll the BUSY bit in the Status register, or wait T
SE
. See
Figures 5-19 and 5-20 for the Sector-Erase sequence.
