The device enters the CMOS standby mode when the CE# and RESET# pins are
both held at V
0.3 V. (Note that this is a more restricted voltage range than
V .) If CE# and RESET# are held at V , but not within V 0.3 V, the device
is in the standby mode, but the standby current is greater. The device requires

Automatic Sleep Mode
The automatic sleep mode minimizes Flash device energy consumption. The de-
vice automatically enables this mode when addresses remain stable for t + 30
ACC
ns. The automatic sleep mode is independent of the CE#, WE#, and OE# control
signals. Standard address access timings provide new data when addresses are
changed. While in sleep mode, output data is latched and always available to the
system. I

RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin
The RESET# pin provides a hardware method of resetting the device to reading
array data. When the RESET# pin is driven low for at least a period of t , the
RP
device immediately terminates any operation in progress, tristates all output
pins, and ignores all read/write commands for the duration of the RESET# pulse.
The device also resets the internal state machine to reading array data. The op-
eration that was interrupted should be reinitiated once the device is ready to
accept another command sequence, to ensure data integrity.
Current is reduced for the duration of the RESET# pulse. When RESET# is held
at V ±0.3 V, the device draws CMOS standby current (I
). If RESET# is held

at V but not within V ±0.3 V, the standby current is greater.

The RESET# pin may be tied to the system reset circuitry. A system reset would
thus also reset the Flash memory, enabling the system to read the boot-up firm-
ware from the Flash memory.
If RESET# is asserted during a program or erase operation, the RY/BY# pin re-
mains a 0 (busy) until the internal reset operation is complete, which requires a
time of t
(during Embedded Algorithms). The system can thus monitor RY/
READY
BY# to determine whether the reset operation is complete. If RESET# is asserted
when a program or erase operation is not executing (RY/BY# pin is 1), the reset
operation is completed within a time of t
(not during Embedded Algorithms).
READY
The system can read data t
after the RESET# pin returns to V .

Output Disable Mode
When the OE# input is at V , output from the device is disabled. The output pins

are placed in the high impedance state.
