5.2 READ AND WRITE TIMING
Data is read by shifting in the 2-bit command (CMD and the 6-bit address, RADDR or WADDR) while simultaneously shifting
out read data from the previous address.
Data can be written in standard or burst mode. Standard mode requires two bytes: one byte for the command and address
to be shifted in, and one byte for data to be shifted in. In burst mode, the command and address are transferred first, and
then consecutive data is written to that address. Burst mode is terminated when CS becomes inactive (high).
See Figure 15 for basic read timing, Figure 16 for standard write timing, and Figure 17 for write timing in burst mode.
