Read (25 MHz)
The Read instruction, 03H, supports up to 25 MHz Read. The device outputs the data starting from the
specified address location. The data output stream is continuous through all addresses until termi-
nated by a low to high transition on CE#. The internal address pointer will automatically increment until
the highest memory address is reached. Once the highest memory address is reached, the address
pointer will automatically increment to the beginning (wrap-around) of the address space. For example,
once the data from address location 3FFFFFH has been read, the next output will be from address
location 000000H.
The Read instruction is initiated by executing an 8-bit command, 03H, followed by address bits [A
23
-
A
0
]. CE# must remain active low for the duration of the Read cycle. See Figure 5 for the Read
sequence.

1. One bus cycle is eight clock periods.
2. Address bits above the most significant bit can be either V
IL
or V
IH
.
3. 4KByte Sector Erase addresses: use A
MS
-A
12,
remaining addresses are don’t care but must be set either at V
IL
or V
IH.
4. 32KByte Block Erase addresses: use A
MS
-A
15,
remaining addresses are don’t care but must be set either at V
IL
or V
IH.
5. 64KByte Block Erase addresses: use A
MS
-A
16,
remaining addresses are don’t care but must be set either at V
IL
or V
IH.
6. To continue programming to the next sequential address location, enter the 8-bit command, ADH, followed by 2 bytes of
data to be programmed. Data Byte 0 will be programmed into the initial address [A
23
-A
1
] with A
0
=0, Data Byte 1 will be
programmed into the
initial address [A
23
-A
1
] with A
0
=1.
7. The Read-Status-Register is continuous with ongoing clock cycles until terminated by a low to high transition on CE#.
8. Manufacturer’s ID is read with A
0
= 0, and Device ID is read with A
0
= 1. All other address bits are 00H. The Manufac-
turer’s ID and device ID output stream is continuous until terminated by a low-to-high transition on CE#.
