Burst CLK Edge Data Delivery
Configuration Register does not occupy any address-
able memory location, but rather, is accessed by the
Configuration Register commands. The Configuration
Register is readable any time, however, writing the
Configuration Register is restricted to times when the
Embedded Algorithm™ is not active. If the user at-
tempts to write the Configuration Register while the
Embedded Algorithm™ is active, the write operation is
ignored and the contents of the Configuration Register
remain unchanged.
The Am29BDD160 is capable of delivering data on ei-
ther the rising or falling edge of CLK. To deliver data
on the rising edge of CLK, bit 6 in the Control Register
(CR6) is set to 1. To deliver data on the falling edge of
CLK, bit 6 in the Control Register is cleared to 0. The
default configuration is set to the rising edge.
Burst Data Hold Control
The device is capable of holding data for one CLKs.
The default configuration is to hold data for one CLK
and is the only valid state.
The Configuration Register is a 16 bit data field which
is accessed by DQ15–DQ0. Data on DQ31–DQ16 is
ignored during a write operation when WORD# = VIL.
During a read operation, DQ31–DQ16 returns all ze-
roes. Table 9 shows the Configuration Register. Also,
Configuration Register reads operate the same as Au-
toselect command reads. When the command is is-
sued, the bank address is latched along with the
command. Reads operations to the bank that was
specified during the Configuration Register read com-
mand return Configuration Register contents. Read
operations to the other bank return flash memory data.
Either bank address is permitted when writing the
Configuration Register read command.
Asserting RESET# During A Burst Access
If RESET# is asserted low during a burst access, the
burst access is immediately terminated and the device
defaults back to asynchronous read mode. Refer to
RESET#: Hardware Reset Pin for more information on
the RESET# function.
Configuration Register
The Am29BDD160 contains a Configuration Register
for configuring read accesses. The Configuration Reg-
ister is accessed by the Configuration Register Read
and the Configuration Register Write commands. The
