other modes, WAIT is always asserted (except for
Read Array mode).
See Table 21, Synchronous Read AC Character-
istics and Figure 12, Synchronous Burst Read AC
Waveform for details.
Single Synchronous Read Mode
Single Synchronous Read operations are similar
to Synchronous Burst Read operations except that
only the first data output after the X latency is valid.
Synchronous Single Reads are used to read the
Electronic Signature, Status Register, CFI, Block
Protection Status, Configuration Register Status
or Protection Register. When the addressed bank
is in Read CFI, Read Status Register or Read
Electronic Signature mode, the WAIT signal is al-
ways asserted.
See Table 21, Synchronous Read AC Character-
istics and Figure 13, Single Synchronous Read AC
Waveform for details.
DUAL OPERATIONS AND MULTIPLE BANK ARCHITECTURE
The Multiple Bank Architecture of the
M58WR064E provides flexibility for software de-
velopers by allowing code and data to be split with
4Mbit granularity. The Dual Operations feature
simplifies the software management of the device
and allows code to be executed from one bank
while another bank is being programmed or
erased.
The Dual operations feature means that while pro-
gramming or erasing in one bank, Read opera-
tions are possible in another bank with zero
latency (only one bank at a time is allowed to be in
Program or Erase mode). If a Read operation is re-
quired in a bank which is programming or erasing,
the Program or Erase operation can be suspend-
ed. Also if the suspended operation was Erase
then a Program command can be issued to anoth-
er block, so the device can have one block in
Erase Suspend mode, one programming and oth-
er banks in Read mode. Bus Read operations are
allowed in another bank between setup and con-
firm cycles of program or erase operations. The
combination of these features means that read op-
erations are possible at any moment.
Tables 11 and 12 show the dual operations possi-
ble in other banks and in the same bank. For a
complete list of possible commands refer to Ap-
pendix D, Command Interface State Tables.
