12.4 Resume from Deep Power-Down

In order to exit the Deep Power-Down mode and resume normal device operation, the Resume from Deep Power-Down

command must be issued. The Resume from Deep Power-Down command is the only command that the device will

recognized while in the Deep Power-Down mode.

To resume from the Deep Power-Down mode, the CS pin must first be asserted and opcode of ABh must be clocked into

the device. Any additional data clocked into the device after the opcode will be ignored. When the CS pin is deasserted,

the device has returned to the standby mode, normal command operations such as Read Array can be resumed.

If the complete opcode is not clocked in before the CS pin is deasserted, or if the CS pin is not deasserted on an even

byte boundary (multiples of eight bits), then the device will abort the operation and return to the Deep Power-Down

mode.

12.5 Ultra-Deep Power-Down

The Ultra-Deep Power-Down mode allows the device to further reduce its energy consumption compared to the existing

standby and Deep Power-Down modes by shutting down additional internal circuitry. When the device is in the Ultra-

Deep Power-Down mode, all commands including the Status Register Read and Resume from Deep Power-Down

commands will be ignored. Since all commands will be ignored, the mode can be used as an extra protection mechanism

against inadvertent or unintentional program and erase operations. Entering the Ultra-Deep Power-Down mode is

accomplished by simply asserting the CS pin, clocking in the opcode 79h, and then deasserting the CS pin. Any

additional data clocked into the device after the opcode will be ignored. When the CS pin is deasserted, the device will

The complete opcode must be clocked in before the CS pin is deasserted; otherwise, the device will abort the operation

and return to the standby mode once the CS pin is deasserted. In addition, the device will default to the standby mode

after a power cycle. The Ultra-Deep Power-Down command will be ignored if an internally self-timed operation such as a

program or erase cycle is in progress.
