Instructions for Use:

1. Power Supply:

   • Ensure the supply voltage (Vcc) is within the range of 2.7V to 3.6V.
   • The device has a low standby current of 10μA at 3.0V.

2. Current Consumption:

   • During active read operations, the current consumption can be up to 20mA.
   • The write enable pin (WE) should have a low input current of -1μA to -20μA.

3. Output Levels:

   • The output high level (VOH) should be at least 2.4V when the output current is -1mA.
   • The output low level (VOL) should not exceed 0.4V when the output current is 1mA.

4. Timing Parameters:

   • The access time (tACC) is 70ns under typical conditions.
   • The write cycle time (tWC) is typically 8ms but can range from 5ms to 10ms.
   • The block erase time (tBERS) is typically 400ms but can range from 300ms to 500ms.
   • The chip erase time (tCHERS) is typically 4 seconds but can range from 2 seconds to 8 seconds.

5. Data Retention:

   • The device guarantees data retention for more than 10 years at 25°C and 3.0V.

6. Temperature Ranges:

   • The operating temperature (Ta) ranges from -40°C to 85°C.
   • The storage temperature (Tstg) ranges from -65°C to 150°C.

7. Handling and Storage:

   • Store the device in a dry environment to prevent moisture damage.
   • Handle with care to avoid static discharge, which can damage the device.

8. Programming and Erasing:

   • Follow the specific programming and erasing sequences provided in the device datasheet to ensure reliable operation.
   • Use appropriate programming voltages and timings to avoid data corruption or device failure.

9. Testing:
