9-12. Dual Output Read Mode (DREAD)
The DREAD instruction enable double throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising
edge of SCLK, and data of every two bits (interleave on 2 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maxi-
mum frequency fT. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased to the next
higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single DREAD instruc-
tion. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing DREAD instruc-
tion, the following data out will perform as 2-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing DREAD instruction is: CS# goes low
sending DREAD instruction 3-byte address on
→
→
SIO0 8 dummy cycles (default) on SIO0
data out interleave on SIO1 & SIO0
to end DREAD operation can
→
→
→
use CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, DREAD instruction is rejected without any impact
on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.
