PAGE ERASE

The PAGE ERASE instruction will erase all bits (FFh)

inside the given page. A Write Enable (WREN) instruc-

tion must be given prior to attempting a PAGE ERASE.

This is done by setting CS low and then clocking out

the proper instruction into the 25LC512. After all eight

bits of the instruction are transmitted, the CS must be

brought high to set the write enable latch.

The PAGE ERASE instruction is entered by driving CS

low, followed by the instruction code (Figure 2-8) and

two address bytes. Any address inside the page to be

erased is a valid address.

CS must then be driven high after the last bit of the

address or the PAGE ERASE will not execute. Once

the CS is driven high the self-timed PAGE ERASE

cycle is started. The WIP bit in the STATUS register

can be read to determine when the PAGE ERASE cycle

is complete.

If a PAGE ERASE instruction is given to an address

that has been protected by the Block Protect bits (BP0,

BP1) then the sequence will be aborted and no erase

will occur.
