ERASE Mode

specified address to logical "1s". The ERASE cycle is
completely self-timed and commences automatically
after the last address bit has been clocked in.
The ERASE cycle takes 1 ms maximum.

ERASE/WRITE Enable/Disable
(EWEN, EWDS)
The device is automatically in the ERASE/WRITE
Disable mode (EWDS) after power-up. Therefore,
an EWEN instruction has to be performed before any
ERASE, WRITE, ERAL, WRAL instruction is exe-
cuted by the device. For added data protection, the
device should be put in the ERASE/WRITE Disable
mode (EWDS) after programming operations are
completed.
