Burst mode is 
not
 the default mode after power-up or a device reset. To perform a burst-mode read, 
the configuration register must be set. To set the configuration register, refer to 
Section 4.2, 
“
Set 
Configuration Register (CR)
”
 on page 13
. After setting the configuration register, if the first device 
operation is a burst-mode read, it is not necessary to execute the Read Array command before 
accessing the flash memory. However, to perform a flash read at any other time, it is necessary to 
execute the Read Array command before accessing the flash memory array.
Burst mode is permitted in all blocks, across all partition boundaries and operates independently of 
V
PP.
 A single-word burst-mode read 
cannot
 be used to access register information. In burst mode, 
the address is latched by either the rising edge of ADV# or the rising edge of CLK with ADV# low, 
whichever occurs first.
Upon completion of reading the array, the device automatically enters an Automatic Power Savings 
(APS) mode. APS mode consumes power comparable to standby mode.
4.2
Set Configuration Register (CR)
The configuration register is 16 bits wide. This register is used to configure the burst mode 
parameters. Therefore, if using page mode, it is not necessary to set this register.
To set the configuration register, execute the Set Configuration Register command. The 16 bits of 
data used by this command must be placed on address lines A
15
–
0
. All other address lines must be 
held low (V
IL
).
After setting the configuration register, if the first device operation is a flash burst-mode read, it is 
not necessary to execute the Read Array command before accessing the flash memory. However, to 
perform a burst-mode read at any other time, it is necessary to execute the Read Array command 
before accessing the flash memory.
