Tables. The Command Definitions table shows the remaining
address bits that are don’t care. When all necessary bits have
been set as required, the programming equipment may then
read the corresponding identifier code on DQ7 - DQ0
To access the autoselect codes in-system, the host system
can issue the autoselect command via the command register, as
shown in the Command Definitions table. This method does
Standby Mode
When the system is not reading or writing to the device, it
can place the device in the standby mode. In this mode, current
consumption is greatly reduced, and the outputs are placed in
the high impedance state, independent of the OE\ input.
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the CE\
pin is held at VCC ± 0.5V. (Note that this is a more restricted

using the autoselect mode.
voltage range than VIH.) The device enters the TTL standby
more when CE\ is held at VIH. The device requires the standard
access time (tCE) before it is ready to read data.
If the device is deselected during erasure or program-
ming, the device draws active current until the operation is
completed.
Sector Protection/Unprotection
The hardware sector protection feature disables both
program and erase operations in any sector. The hardware
sector unprotection feature re-enables both program and erase
operations in previously protected sectors.

voltage (VID) on address pin A9 and the control pins. The
device is shipped with all sectors unprotected. It is possible
to determine whether a sector is protected or unprotected. See
“Autoselect Mode” for details.
When the OE\ input is at VIH, output from the device is
disabled. The output pins are placed in the high impedance
state.
Autoselect Mode
Hardware Data Protection
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and device
identification, and sector protection verification, through
identifier codes output on DQ7 - DQ0. This mode is primarily
intended for programming equipment to automatically match a
device to be programmed with its corresponding programming
algorithm. However, the autoselect codes can also be accessed
in-system through the command register.
The command sequence requirement of unlock cycles
for programming or erasing provides data protection against
inadvertent writes (refer to the Command Definitions table).
In addition, the following hardware data protection measures
prevent accidental erasure or programming, which might
otherwise be caused by spurious system level signals during
VCC power-up and power-down transitions, or from system
noise.
When using programming equipment, the autoselect mode
requires VID on address pin A9. Address pins A6, A1, and
A0 must be as shown in the Autoselect Codes (High Voltage
Method) table. In addition, when verifying sector protection,
the sector address must appear on the appropriate highest
order address bits. Refer to the corresponding Sector Address
Low VCC Write Inhibit
When VCC is less than VLKO, the device does not accept
any write cycles. This protects data during VCC power-up and
