4. DEVICE OPERATION

SPI Mode

Standard SPI

The GD25Q32C feature a serial peripheral interface on 4 signals bus: Serial Clock (SCLK), Chip Select (CS#),

Serial Data Input (SI) and Serial Data Output (SO). Both SPI bus mode 0 and 3 are supported. Input data is

latched on the rising edge of SCLK and data shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK.

Dual SPI

The GD25Q32C supports Dual SPI operation when using the “Dual Output Fast Read” (3BH), “Dual I/O

Fast Read” (BBH) and “Read Manufacture ID/Device ID Dual I/O” (92H) commands. These commands allow

data to be transferred to or from the device at two times the rate of the standard SPI. When using the Dual SPI

command the SI and SO pins become bidirectional I/O pins: IO0 and IO1.

Quad SPI

The GD25Q32C supports Quad SPI operation when using the “Quad Output Fast Read”(6BH), “Quad I/O Fast

Read”(EBH), “Quad I/O Word Fast Read”(E7H), “Read Manufacture ID/Device ID Quad I/O” (94H) and“Quad

Page Program” (32H) commands. These commands allow data to be transferred to or from the device at four

times the rate of the standard SPI. When using the Quad SPI command the SI and SO pins become bidirectional

I/O pins: IO0 and IO1, and WP# and HOLD# pins become IO2 and IO3. Quad SPI commands require the non-

volatile Quad Enable bit (QE) in Status Register to be set.

Hold

The HOLD# function is only available when QE=0, If QE=1, The HOLD# function is disabled, the pin acts as

dedicated data I/O pin.

The HOLD# signal goes low to stop any serial communications with the device, but doesn’t stop the operation

of write status register, programming, or erasing in progress.

The operation of HOLD, need CS# keep low, and starts on falling edge of the HOLD# signal, with SCLK

signal being low (if SCLK is not being low, HOLD operation will not start until SCLK being low). The HOLD

condition ends on rising edge of HOLD# signal with SCLK being low (If SCLK is not being low, HOLD

operation will not end until SCLK being low).

The SO is high impedance, both SI and SCLK don’t care during the HOLD operation, if CS# drives high

during HOLD operation, it will reset the internal logic of the device. To re-start communication with chip, the

HOLD# must be at high and then CS# must be at low.
