Erase
The ERASE instruction forces all data bits of the speci-
fied address to the logical ‘1’ state. CS is brought low 
following the loading of the last address bit. This falling 
edge of the CS pin initiates the self-timed program-
ming cycle, except on ‘93C’ devices where the rising 
edge of CLK before the last address bit initiates the 
write cycle.
The DO pin indicates the Ready/
Busy
 status of the
device if CS is brought high after a minimum of 250 ns
low (T
CSL
). DO at logical ‘0’ indicates that programming
is still in progress. DO at logical ‘1’ indicates that the
register at the specified address has been erased and
the device is ready for another instruction.

Note:
After the Erase cycle is complete, issuing
a Start bit and then taking CS low will clear
the Ready/
Busy
 status from DO.
