Toggle-Mode NAND?

High speed “Toggle-Mode” operation• No clock – Asynchronous Double Data Rate• High performance by using the asynchronous

interface for backward compatibilityBidirectional DQS for read and write operations• Bidirectional DQS for read and write operations

Why Toggle-Mode NAND?

High performance• Supports 133Mbps and higher

Less power consumption• No free-running clock

Flexibility of operating frequency• No additional mode change required

Easy migration from legacy NAND• Same signal functionality as legacy NAND
