READs
READ bursts are initiated with a READ command, as
shown in Figure 5.
Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other com-
mands have been initiated, the DQs will go High-Z. A full-
page burst will continue until terminated. (At the end of
the page, it will wrap to column 0 and continue.)
Data from any READ burst may be truncated with a
subsequentREADcommand,anddatafromafixed-length
READ burst may be immediately followed by data from a
READcommand. Ineithercase, acontinuousflowofdata
can be maintained. The first data element from the new
burst follows either the last element of a completed burst
or the last desired data element of a longer burst that is
being truncated. The new READ command should be
issued x cycles before the clock edge at which the last
desired data element is valid, where x equals the CAS
latency minus one.
The starting column and bank addresses are provided
with the READ command, and auto precharge is either
enabledordisabledforthatburstaccess.Ifautoprecharge
is enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the
completion of the burst. For the generic READ com-
mandsusedinthefollowingillustrations, autoprecharge
is disabled.
During READ bursts, the valid data-out element from
the starting column address will be available following
the CAS latency after the READ command. Each subse-
quent data-out element will be valid by the next positive
clock edge. Figure 6 shows general timing for each pos-
sible CAS latency setting.
