The maximum AU length is determined by the capacity of the card. The card can set any AU length between the RU
length and the maximum AU length.

ERASE_SIZE
This 16-bit field represents NERASE. When NERASE AUs are erased, the timeout period is defined by
ERASE_TIMEOUT. The host should determine the appropriate number of AUs to be erased in one operation so that
the host can display the progress of the erase operation. If this field is 0, the timeout calculation for erasure is not
supported.

ERASE_TIMEOUT
These 6 bits represent TERASE. When multiple AUs indicated by ERASE_SIZE are erased, this value gives the
erase timeout time from the offset. The range of ERASE_TIMEOUT can be defined up to 63 seconds. The
manufacturer of the card can choose any combination of ERASE_SIZE and ERASE_TIMEOUT according to the
specific implementation. Once ERASE_TIMEOUT is determined, then ERASE_SIZE is also determined. If the
ERASE_SIZE field is set to 0, then ERASE_TIMEOUT should also be set is 0.
