12 Quad-SPI interface (QUADSPI)
12.1 Introduction
The QUADSPI is a specialized communication interface targeting single, dual or quad SPI
Flash memories. It can operate in any of the three following modes:
• indirect mode: all the operations are performed using the QUADSPI registers
• status polling mode: the external Flash memory status register is periodically read and
an interrupt can be generated in case of flag setting
• memory-mapped mode: the external Flash memory is mapped to the microcontroller
address space and is seen by the system as if it was an internal memory
Both throughput and capacity can be increased two-fold using dual-flash mode, where two
Quad-SPI Flash memories are accessed simultaneously.
12.2 QUADSPI main features
• Three functional modes: indirect, status-polling, and memory-mapped
• Dual-flash mode, where 8 bits can be sent/received simultaneously by accessing two
Flash memories in parallel.
• SDR and DDR support
• Fully programmable opcode for both indirect and memory mapped mode
• Fully programmable frame format for both indirect and memory mapped mode
• Integrated FIFO for reception and transmission
• 8, 16, and 32-bit data accesses are allowed
• DMA channel for indirect mode operations
• Interrupt generation on FIFO threshold, timeout, operation complete, and access error
