A read burst without the auto precharge function may be interrupted by a BankPrecharge/
PrechargeAll command to the same bank. The following figure shows the optimum time that
BankPrecharge/ PrechargeAll command is issued in different CAS latency.

Read and AutoPrecharge command
(RAS# = "H", CAS# = "L", WE# = "H", BAs = Bank, A10 = "H", A0-A8 = Column Address)
The Read and AutoPrecharge command automatically performs the precharge operation after
the read operation. Once this command is given, any subsequent command cannot occur within a
time delay of {tRP(min.) + burst length}. At full-page burst, only the read operation is performed in this
command and the auto precharge function is ignored.
Write command
(RAS# = "H", CAS# = "L", WE# = "L", BAs = Bank, A10 = "L", A0-A8 = Column Address)
The Write command is used to write a burst of data on consecutive clock cycles from an active
row in an active bank. The bank must be active for at least tRCD(min.) before the Write command is
issued. During write bursts, the first valid data-in element will be registered coincident with the Write
command. Subsequent data elements will be registered on each successive positive clock edge
(refer to the following figure). The DQs remain with high-impedance at the end of the burst unless
another command is initiated. The burst length and burst sequence are determined by the mode
register, which is already programmed. A full-page burst will continue until terminated (at the end of
the page it will wrap to column 0 and continue).
