Write Status Register Instruction

(WRSR)

The Write Status Register instruction (WRSR) allows the

user to write to the nonvolatile bits in the STATUS

select one of four levels of protection for the array by

writing to the appropriate bits in the STATUS register.

The array is divided up into four segments. The user

has the ability to write-protect none, one, two, or all four

of the segments of the array. The partitioning is

controlled as shown in Table 2-3.

The Write-Protect Enable (WPEN) bit is a nonvolatile

bit that is available as an enable bit for the WP pin. The

Write-Protect (WP) pin and the Write-Protect Enable

(WPEN) bit in the STATUS register control the

programmable hardware write-protect feature. Hard-

ware write protection is enabled when WP pin is low

and the WPEN bit is high. Hardware write protection is

disabled when either the WP pin is high or the WPEN

bit is low. When the chip is hardware write-protected,

only writes to nonvolatile bits in the STATUS register

are disabled. See Table 2-4 for a matrix of functionality

on the WPEN bit.

See Figure 2-7 for the WRSR timing sequence.
