17.16.4  Erase-Verify Mode (n = 1 for addresses H'000000 to H'03FFFF, and n = 2 for 
addresses H'040000 to H'07FFFF) 
In erase-verify mode, data is read after memory has been erased to check whether it has been 
correctly erased. 
After the elapse of the erase time, erase mode is exited (the En bit in FLMCRn is cleared to 0, then 
the ESUn bit in FLMCRn is cleared to 0 at least (α) μs later), the watchdog timer is cleared after 
the elapse of (β) μs or more, and the operating mode is switched to erase-verify mode by setting 
the EVn bit in FLMCRn. Before reading in erase-verify mode, a dummy write of H'FF data should 
be made to the addresses to be read. The dummy write should be executed after the elapse of (γ) 
μs or more. When the flash memory is read in this state (verify data is read in 16-bit units), the 
data at the latched address is read. Wait at least (ε) μs after the dummy write before performing 
this read operation. If the read data has been erased (all 1), a dummy write is performed to the next 
address, and erase-verify is performed. If the read data has not been erased, set erase mode again, 
and repeat the erase/erase-verify sequence in the same way. However, ensure that the erase/erase-
verify sequence is not repeated more than (N) times. When verification is completed, exit erase-
verify mode, and wait for at least (η) μs. If erasure has been completed on all the erase blocks, 
clear the SWEn bit in FLMCRn to 0 and wait for at least (θ) μs. If there are any unerased blocks, 
make a 1 bit setting for the flash memory area to be erased, and repeat the erase/erase-verify 
sequence in the same way.
