Hold Operation

The HOLD input can be used to pause communication

between host and NV25M01. To pause, HOLD must be

taken low while SCK is low (Figure 11). During the hold

condition the device must remain selected (CS low). During

the pause, the data output pin (SO) is tri−stated (high

impedance) and SI transitions are ignored. To resume

communication, HOLD must be taken high while SCK is

low.

Design Considerations

The NV25M01 device incorporates Power−On Reset

(POR) circuitry which protects the internal logic against

powering up in the wrong state. The device will power up

below the POR trigger level. This bi−directional POR

behavior protects the device against ‘brown−out’ failure

following a temporary loss of power.

The NV25M01 device powers up in a write disable state

and in a low power standby mode. A WREN instruction

must be issued prior any writes to the device.

After power up, the CS pin must be brought low to enter

a ready state and receive an instruction. After a successful

byte/page write or status register write, the device goes into

a write disable mode. The CS input must be set high after the

proper number of clock cycles to start the internal write

cycle. Access to the memory array during an internal write

cycle is ignored and programming is continued. Any invalid

op−code will be ignored and the serial output pin (SO) will

remain in the high impedance state.
