All partitions support the synchronous burst mode that internally sequences addresses with respect
to the input CLK to select and supply data to the outputs.
Identifier codes, query data, and status register read operations execute as single-synchronous or
asynchronous read cycles. WAIT is asserted during these reads.
Access to the modes listed above is independent of VPP. An appropriate CUI command places the
flash device in a read mode. At initial power-up or after reset, the flash device defaults to
asynchronous read-array mode.
Asserting CE# enables flash device read operations. The flash device internally decodes upper
address inputs to determine which partition is accessed.
Asserting ADV# opens the internal address latches.
Asserting OE# activates the outputs, and gates the selected data onto the I/O bus.
In asynchronous mode, the address is latched when ADV# is deasserted (when the flash device
is configured to use ADV#).
In synchronous mode, the address is latched by either the rising edge of ADV# or the rising (or
falling) CLK edge while ADV# remains asserted, whichever occurs first.
WE# and RST# must be deasserted during read operations.
Note:
If only asynchronous reads are to be performed in your system, CLK must be tied to a valid VIH
level, the WAIT signal can be floated, and ADV# must be tied to ground.
9.1.2
Burst Suspend
The Burst Suspend feature allows the system to temporarily suspend a synchronous burst operation
if the system needs to use the flash device address and data bus for other purposes. Burst accesses
can be suspended during the initial latency (before data is received) or after the flash device has
output data. When a burst access is suspended, internal array sensing continues and any previously
latched internal data is retained.
Burst Suspend occurs when CE# is asserted, the current address has been latched (either ADV#
rising edge or valid CLK edge), CLK is halted, and OE# is deasserted. CLK can be halted when it
is at VIH or VIL. To resume the burst access, OE# is reasserted and CLK is restarted. Subsequent
CLK edges resume the burst sequence where it left off.
Within the flash device, CE# gates the WAIT signal. Therefore, during Burst Suspend, WAIT
remains asserted and does not revert to a high-impedance state when OE# is deasserted. This WAIT
state can cause contention with another flash device attempting to control the system READY
signal during a Burst Suspend. System using the Burst Suspend feature must not connect the flash
device WAIT signal directly to the system READY signal.
9.1.3
Standby
De-asserting CE# deselects the flash device and places it in standby mode, substantially reducing
flash device power consumption. In standby mode, outputs are placed in a high-impedance state
independent of OE#. If deselected during a program or erase algorithm, the flash device consumes
active power until the program or erase operation completes.
