Figure 15.1. Quad Input / Output Fast Read Instruction Sequence under EQPI Mode
Another sequence of issuing Quad Input/Output FAST_READ (EBh) instruction especially useful in
random access is: CS# goes low -> sending Quad Input/Output FAST_READ (EBh) instruction -> 24-
bit address interleave on DQ₃, DQ₂, DQ₁ and DQ₀ -> performance enhance toggling bit P[7:0] -> 4
dummy cycles -> data out interleave on DQ₃, DQ₂, DQ₁ and DQ₀ till CS# goes high -> CS# goes low
(reduce Quad Input/Output FAST_READ (EBh) instruction) -> 24-bit random access address, as shown
in Figure 16.
In the performance – enhancing mode, P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0] ; likewise P[7:0] = A5h, 5Ah,
F0h or 0Fh can make this mode continue and reduce the next Quad Input/Output FAST_READ (EBh)
instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with P[3:0] ; likewise P[7:0] = FFh, 00h, AAh or 55h. These
commands will reset the performance enhance mode. And afterwards CS# is raised or issuing FF
command (CS# goes high -> CS# goes low -> sending 0xFFh -> CS# goes high) instead of no toggling,
the system then will escape from performance enhance mode and return to normal operation.
While Program/ Erase/ Write Status Register is in progress, Quad Input/Output FAST_READ (EBh)
instruction is rejected without impact on the Program/ Erase/ Write Status Register current cycle.
The instruction sequence is shown in Figure 16.1 while using the Enable Quad Peripheral Interface mode
(EQPI) (38h) command.
