complete
1. Word count values on DQ0:DQ15 are loaded into the count register. Count ranges for
this device are N = 0000h to 01FFh.
Notes:
2. Device outputs the status register when read.
3. Write buffer contents will be programmed at the device start or destination address.
4. Align the start address on a write buffer boundary for maximum programming perform-
ance; that is, A[9:1] of the start address = 0).
5. Device aborts the BUFFERED PROGRAM command if the current address is outside the
original block address.
6. Status register indicates an improper command sequence if the BUFFERED PROGRAM
command is aborted. Follow this with a CLEAR STATUS REGISTER command.
7. Device defaults to SR output data after BUFFERED PROGRAMMING SETUP command
(E8h) is issued . CE# or OE# must be toggled to update the status register . Don’t issue
the READ SR command (70h); it is interpreted by the device as buffer word count.
8. Full status check can be done after erase and write sequences complete. Write FFh after
the last operation to reset the device to read array mode.
