1.7.5. Fast Read Operation (0Bh)
When you execute the fast read operation, you first shift in the fast read operation
code, followed by a 3-byte addressing mode (A[23..0]) or a 4-byte addressing
mode (A[31..0]), and dummy clock cycle(s) with each bit being latched-in during
the rising edge of the DCLK signal. Then, the memory contents at that address is
shifted out on DATA1 with each bit being shifted out at a maximum frequency of
100 MHz during the falling edge of the DCLK signal.

To access the entire EPCQ256 or EPCQ512/A memory, use 4-byte addressing mode. In the 4-byte addressing
mode, the address width is 32-bit address.

The first byte address can be at any location. The device automatically increases the
address to the next higher address after shifting out each byte of data. Therefore, the
device can read the whole memory with a single fast read operation. When the device
reaches the highest address, the address counter restarts at 0x000000, allowing the
read sequence to continue indefinitely.
You can terminate the fast read operation by driving the nCS signal high at any time
during data output. If the fast read operation is shifted in while an erase, program, or
write cycle is in progress, the operation is not executed and does not affect the erase,
program, or write cycle in progress.
1.7.6. Extended Dual Input Fast Read Operation (BBh)
This operation is similar to the fast read operation except that the data and addresses
are shifted in and out on the DATA0 and DATA1 pins.
