4.2 Quad Interface Mode
In addition to the Serial Dual interface (SDI) mode of
operation Serial Quad Interface (SQI) is also
supported. In this mode the HOLD functionality is not
available. To enter SQI mode the EQIO command must
be clocked in (Figure 4-4).

Note 1: Page and Sequential mode is similar in that additional bytes can be clocked out before CS is
brought high.
2: The first byte read after the address will be a dummy byte.
