30.2.3.6 Debug mode (SPI modes only) 
The Debug mode is used for system development and debugging, it is controlled by additional logic 
outside of the module. When the MCU is stopped by a debugger and the QSPI_MCR[FRZ] bit is set 
QuadSPI stops all serial transfers. 
30.3 External signal description
30.3.1 Overview
Table 30-4 lists the signals of the external signals belonging to the QuadSPI module in conjunction with 
the different modes of operation.
Table 30-5 shows how the signals are connected on the MPC5606S in SPI and serial flash modes. Serial 
flash mode is selected by setting QSPI_MCR[QMODE]. Using a quad flash memory as an SPI device on 
the fly (that is, on-the-fly change of mode from SFM to SPI or vice versa) may not be possible for all flash 
memories. Check I/O compatibility before using this.
