Instructions

6.5

Read from Memory Array (READ)

As shown in Figure 12, to send this instruction to the device, Chip Select (S) is first driven

low. The bits of the instruction byte and address bytes are then shifted in, on Serial Data

Input (D). The address is loaded into an internal address register, and the byte of data at

that address is shifted out, on Serial Data Output (Q).

Figure 12. Read from Memory Array (READ) sequence

Depending on the memory size, as shown in Table 4, the most significant address bits are Don’t Care.

If Chip Select (S) continues to be driven low, the internal address register is incremented

automatically, and the byte of data at the new address is shifted out.

When the highest address is reached, the address counter rolls over to zero, allowing the

Read cycle to be continued indefinitely. The whole memory can, therefore, be read with a

single READ instruction.

The Read cycle is terminated by driving Chip Select (S) high. The rising edge of the Chip

Select (S) signal can occur at any time during the cycle.

The instruction is not accepted, and is not executed, if a Write cycle is currently in progress.
