SPI Protocols

4.3

Note:

Quad SPI (QIO-SPI) protocol

Quad SPI (QIO-SPI) protocol: instructions, addresses, and I/O data are always transmitted

on four data lines DQ0, DQ1, W/VPP(DQ2), and HOLD / (DQ3).

The exception is the Program/Erase cycle performed with the VPP, in which case the device

temporarily goes to Extended SPI protocol. Going temporarily into Extended SPI protocol

allows the application either to:

z check the polling bits: WIP bit in the Status Register or Program/Erase Controller bit in

the Flag Status Register

z perform Program/Erase suspend functions.

As soon as the VPP pin voltage goes low, the protocol returns to the QIO-SPI protocol.

In QIO-SPI protocol the W and HOLD/ (RESET) functionality is disabled when the device is

selected (S signal low).

When used in the QIO-SPI mode, these devices can be driven by a micro controller in either

of the two following modes:

z CPOL=0, CPHA=0

z CPOL=1, CPHA=1

Please refer to the SPI modes for a detailed description of the 2 modes.

In the Extended SPI protocol only Address and data are allowed to be transmitted on 4 data

lines, However in QIO-SPI protocol, the address, data and instructions are transmitted

across 4 data lines.

This working mode is set in either bit 7 of the Volatile Enhanced Configuration Register

(VECR) or in bit 3 of the Non Volatile Configuration Register (NVCR).

This mode can be set using two ways

z Volatile: by setting bit 7 of the VECR to 0, the device enters QIO-SPI protocol

immediately after the Write Enhanced Volatile Configuration Register sequence

completes. The device returns to the default working protocol (defined by the NVCR)

on the next power on.

z Default/ Non- Volatile: This is default protocol on power up. By setting bit 3 of the

NVCR to 0, the device enters QIO-SPI protocol on the subsequent power-on. After all

subsequent power-on sequences, the device still starts in QIO-SPI protocol unless bit 3

of the NVCR is set to 1 (default value, corresponding to Extended SPI mode).
