Figure 51-37. EBI Read Cycle AC Timing Diagram

READ_MODE = 1 (Write Operation Controlled by NRD):

  • NRD_SETUP: NRD setup time is defined as the setup of address before the NRD falling edge
  • NRD_PULSE: NRD pulse length is the time between NRD falling edge and NRD rising edge
  • NRD_HOLD: NRD hold time is defined as the hold time of address after the NRD rising edge

READ_MODE = 0 (Write Operation Controlled by NCS):

  • NCS_RD_SETUP: NCS setup time is defined as the setup time of address before the NCS falling edge
  • NCS_RD_PULSE: NCS pulse length is the time between NCS falling edge and NCS rising edge
  • NCS_RD_HOLD: NCS hold time is defined as the hold time of address after the NCS rising edge

Read Cycle:

  • NRD_CYCLE = NRD_SETUP + NRD_PULSE + NRD_HOLD
  • NCS_CYCLE = NCS_RD_SETUP + NCS_RD_PULSE + NCS_RD_HOLD
Figure 51-38. EBI Write Cycle AC Timing Diagram: WRITE_MODE = 1 (Write Operation Controlled by NWE)

Write Cycle:

  • NWE_CYCLE = NWE_SETUP + NWE_PULSE + NWE_HOLD
  • NWE_HOLD = NWE_CYCLE - NWE_SETUP - NWE_PULSE
Figure 51-39. EBI Write Cycle AC Timing Diagram: WRITE_MODE = 0 (Write Operation Controlled by NCS)

Write Cycle:

  • NCS_CYCLE = NCS_WR_SETUP + NCS_WR_PULSE + NCS_WR_HOLD
  • NCS_WR_HOLD = NWE_CYCLE - NCS_WR_SETUP - NCS_WR_PULSE
