29.11.2 TDF Optimization Enabled (TDF_MODE = 1)
When the TDF_MODE of the SMC_MODE register is set to 1 (TDF optimization is enabled), the SMC takes advantage of
the setup period of the next access to optimize the number of wait states cycle to insert.
 shows a read access controlled by NRD, followed by a write access controlled by NWE, on Chip Select 0.
Chip Select 0 has been programmed with:
NRD_HOLD = 4; READ_MODE = 1 (NRD controlled)
NWE_SETUP = 3; WRITE_MODE = 1 (NWE controlled)
TDF_CYCLES = 6; TDF_MODE = 1 (optimization enabled).
Figure 29-22.TDF Optimization: No TDF wait states are inserted if the TDF period is over when the next access begins
29.11.3 TDF Optimization Disabled (TDF_MODE = 0)
When optimization is disabled, tdf wait states are inserted at the end of the read transfer, so that the data float period is
ended when the second access begins. If the hold period of the read1 controlling signal overlaps the data float period, no
additional tdf wait states will be inserted.

Read access followed by a read access on another chip select,

Read access followed by a write access on another chip select,

Read access followed by a write access on the same chip select,
with no TDF optimization.
