S25FL128S, S25FL256S
9.1.7
OTP, Block Protection, and Advanced Sector Protection
There are commands to read and program a separate One TIme Programmable (OTP) array for permanent data such as a serial
number. There are commands to control a contiguous group (block) of flash memory array sectors that are protected from program
and erase operations. There are commands to control which individual flash memory array sectors are protected from program and
erase operations.
9.1.8
Reset
There is a command to reset to the default conditions present after power on to the device. There is a command to reset (exit from)
the Enhanced Performance Read Modes.
9.1.9
Reserved
Some instructions are reserved for future use. In this generation of the S25FL128S and S25FL256S some of these command
instructions may be unused and not affect device operation, some may have undefined results.
Some commands are reserved to ensure that a legacy or alternate source device command is allowed without affect. This allows
legacy software to issue some commands that are not relevant for the current generation S25FL128S and S25FL256S devices with
the assurance these commands do not cause some unexpected action.
Some commands are reserved for use in special versions of the FL-S not addressed by this document or for a future generation.
This allows new host memory controller designs to plan the flexibility to issue these command instructions. The command format is
defined if known at the time this document revision is published.
