 Hold Operation
The hold operation is used to pause serial communications without setting this IC in the non-select status. In the hold
status, the serial data output goes in "High-Z", and both of the serial data input and the serial clock go in "Don't care". Be
sure to set the chip select ( CS ) to "L" to set this IC in the select status during the hold status.
Generally, during the hold status, this IC holds the select status. But if setting this IC in the non-select status, the users
can finish the operation even in progress. Figure 19 shows the hold operation.
These are two statuses when the serial clock (SCK) is set to "L".
• If setting hold ( HOLD ) to "L", hold ( HOLD ) is switched at the same time the hold status starts.
• If setting hold ( HOLD ) to "H", hold ( HOLD ) is switched at the same time the hold status ends.
These are two statuses when the serial clock (SCK) is set to "H".
• If setting hold ( HOLD ) to "L", the hold status starts when the serial clock goes in "L" after hold ( HOLD ) is switched.
• If setting hold ( HOLD ) to "H", the hold status ends when the serial clock goes in "L" after hold ( HOLD ) is switched.
