*: Both of the two types of Read/Reset commands can reset the flash memory to read mode.
Notes:
• The addresses shown in the table are those on the CPU memory map. All addresses and data are represented in
hexadecimal notation. The letter X indicates an appropriate value.
RA: Read address
PA: Write address.
RD: Read data
PD: Write data.
• The flash memory can only accept the command sequences mentioned on the above table (Read/Reset, Write
program, Chip Erase), other command sequences are strictly prohibited to be sent to the flash memory or else the
flash memory may become malfunction.
