Hi pwiln,

If you are using ASMI Parallel IP, you can either just monitor the busy signal goes low (erase operation complete) or use read_status operation to read the status register bit 0. Otherwise to be safe you can use both where once the busy goes low (erase operation complete) wait at least two clock cycle, then execute the read_status operation.
