READs
The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the READ command and
auto precharge is either enabled or disabled for that burst access. If auto precharge is
enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the burst.
Note:
For the READ commands used in the following illustrations, auto precharge is dis-
abled.
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 subsequent data-
out element will be valid nominally at the next positive or negative clock edge (i.e., at the
ble CAS latency setting. DQS is driven by the DDR SDRAM along with output data. The
initial LOW state on DQS is known as the read preamble; the LOW state coincident with
the last data-out element is known as the read postamble.
Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQs
will go High-Z. A detailed explanation of tDQSQ (valid data-out skew), tQH (data-out

sequent READ command. In either case, a continuous flow of data 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 which is being truncated. The
new READ command should be issued x cycles after the first READ command, where x
equals the number of desired data element pairs (pairs are required by the 2n-prefetch
on any clock cycle following a previous READ command. Nonconsecutive read data is
