Chapter 12: Quad-SPI Flash Controller
12.2.6 Unsupported Devices
A number of devices implement custom 4-bit wide SPI-like interfaces for flash memory access, such
as the SQI devices from SST, and the Fast4 devices from Atmel. Some other Quad-SPI devices, like
some Micron/Numonyx devices, offer an option to switch operation to such a custom 4-bit interface,
through a non-volatile configuration bit.
These interfaces operate differently from the devices supported by the Quad-SPI controller. These
flash memory devices operate in 4-bit mode during the instruction phase, as well as the address and
data phases. This requires the Quad-SPI flash controller to power up in 4-bit mode and remain in that
mode permanently (or until configured otherwise, if that option is available). There are no plans to
enable the support for these custom interfaces.
12.2.7 Supported Memory Read and Write Commands
Supports commands that transfers address one bit per rising edge of SCK and return data 1, 2, or 4
bits of data per rising edge of SCK. These commands are called Read or Fast Read for 1-bit data; Dual
Output Read for 2-bit data, and Quad Output for 4-bit data.
Supports commands that transfer both address and data 2 or 4 bits per rising edge of SCK. These are
called Dual I/O for 2-bit and Quad I/O for 4-bit.
