Figure 28-13. Chip Select Wait State between a Read Access on NCS0 and a Write Access on NCS2 
28.10.2 Early Read Wait State
In some cases, the SMC inserts a wait state cycle between a write access and a read access to allow time for the
write cycle to end before the subsequent read cycle begins. This wait state is not generated in addition to a chip
select wait state. The early read cycle thus only occurs between a write and read access to the same memory
device (same chip select).
An early read wait state is automatically inserted if at least one of the following conditions is valid:
if the write controlling signal has no hold time and the read controlling signal has no setup time (
).
in NCS write controlled mode (WRITE_MODE = 0), if there is no hold timing on the NCS signal and the 
NCS_RD_SETUP parameter is set to 0, regardless of the read mode (
). The write operation 
must end with a NCS rising edge. Without an Early Read Wait State, the write operation could not complete 
properly.
in NWE controlled mode (WRITE_MODE = 1) and if there is no hold timing (NWE_HOLD = 0), the feedback 
of the write control signal is used to control address, data, and chip select lines. If the external write control 
signal is not inactivated as expected due to load capacitances, an Early Read Wait State is inserted and 
address, data and control signals are maintained one more cycle. Se
