Toggle Bit Algorithm
After the sector erase command sequence is written, the system should read the
status on DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit I) to ensure the device accepted
the command sequence, and then read DQ3. If DQ3 is
1,
the internally controlled
erase cycle started; all further commands (other than Erase Suspend) are ig-
nored until the erase operation is complete. If DQ3 is
0,
the device accepts
