A memory device supporting multi-address read operations improves throughput on a bi-directional serial port. The device includes a memory array and an input/output port having an input mode and an output mode. The input/output port has at least one signal line used alternately in both the input and output modes. A controller includes logic configured to execute a multi-address read operation in response to receiving a read command on the input/output port, the multi-address read operation including receiving a first address and a second address using the at least one signal line before outputting data.
