2. Micron-prelocked (permanent).
Notes:
3. Customer-lockable.
4. Protected: 01h (in x8 mode) is output on DQ[7:0].
5. Unprotected: 00h (in x8 mode) is output on DQ[7:0].
6. Block base address for 128Mb device, should be A[MAX:16], while A15 = X.
Bypass Operations
UNLOCK BYPASS Command
The UNLOCK BYPASS (20h) command is used to place the device in unlock bypass
mode. Three bus WRITE operations are required to issue the UNLOCK BYPASS com-
mand.
When the device enters unlock bypass mode, the two initial UNLOCK cycles required
for a standard PROGRAM or ERASE operation are not needed, thus enabling faster total
program or erase time.
The UNLOCK BYPASS command is used in conjunction with UNLOCK BYPASS PRO-
GRAM or UNLOCK BYPASS ERASE commands to program or erase the device faster
than with standard PROGRAM or ERASE commands. When the cycle time to the device
