S29AL016J55FFAR20 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating frequency of the S29AL016J55FFAR20?
  The maximum operating frequency of the S29AL016J55FFAR20 is 55 MHz.
• How do I handle the hold signal (HOLD#) during read and write operations?
  The HOLD# signal should be asserted low to pause the current operation and enter a low-power state. De-asserting HOLD# resumes the operation.
• What is the purpose of the Write Protect (WP#) pin?
  The WP# pin is used to prevent accidental writes to the status register and the block protection bits. When WP# is low, the status register and block protection bits are write-protected.
• How do I determine the device density and organization?
  The device density and organization can be determined by reading the Device ID (0x01C2) and the Density and Organization (0x90) bytes from the device.
• What is the recommended power-up sequence for the S29AL016J55FFAR20?
  The recommended power-up sequence is to apply VCC first, followed by VPP (if used), and then the clock signal (CLK).
