  1. Request exclusive access to the AS x4 interface: QSPI_OPEN .
  2. Specify a quad SPI flash chip: QSPI_SET_CS*.
    Note:
    • This step is mandatory for JTAG configuration schemes.
    • For AS x4 configuration schemes:
      • If your system has multiple quad SPI devices, this step is mandatory to access data stored in quad SPI devices connected to nCSO[3:0].
      • If your system has only one quad SPI device, this step is optional to access data stored in the quad SPI device connected to nCSO[0].
  3. Perform the desired operations. The following operations are available:
    • QSPI_READ
    • QSPI_WRITE
    • QSPI_ERASE
    • QSPI_READ_DEVICE_REG
    • QSPI_WRITE_DEVICE_REG
