†VA = Byte address for programming. VA = any of the sector
addresses within the sector being erased during Sector Erase. VA
= valid address equals any non-protected sector group address
during Chip Erase.
‡ DQ7 rechecked even if DQ5 = 1 because DQ5 and DQ7 may not
change simultaneously.

†DQ6 rechecked even if DQ5 = 1 because DQ6 may stop toggling
when DQ5 changes to 1.
