A method for reading, from a semiconductor memory, data having a data burst length greater than two includes, beginning at a first time, receiving, on an address bus, a first address part associated with memory cells to be addressed. At a second time that is later than the first time, a read command is placed on a command bus to initiate read access to the first memory cells and a second address part associated with memory cells to be addressed is received on the address bus. Beginning at a third time that is later than the second time, data associated with the first and second address parts is transferred to a data bus.
