EN25F20A-104WIP(2N)

The EN25F20A-104WIP(2N) is a 2 Mbit (256 K-byte) SPI NOR serial flash memory optimized for embedded and industrial designs requiring non-volatile code and data storage. It implements a serial SPI architecture with support for Standard, Dual and Quad SPI modes and high-speed operation up to a 104 MHz clock for single, dual and quad data transfer.

Designed for industrial environments, the device combines uniform sector erase architecture with low-power modes and flexible write-protect options to support firmware storage, system boot code and reliable field updates in space-constrained SMD packages.

Key Features

• Memory Capacity & Organization — 2.097 Mbit total capacity organized as 256K × 8 (256 K-byte) with 1,024 pages and 256 bytes per programmable page.
• Serial SPI Interface — SPI-compatible architecture supporting Standard, Dual and Quad SPI; SPI Modes 0 and 3 are supported for flexible host integration.
• High-Speed Operation — Supports up to 104 MHz clock rate for Standard, Dual and Quad read operations for fast code and data access.
• Program & Erase Performance — High performance program/erase: typical page program time 0.5 ms, sector erase time 40 ms, 32 KB block erase 120 ms, 64 KB block erase 150 ms, and full chip erase typically 1 second (datasheet typical values).
• Uniform Sector Architecture — 64 sectors of 4 KB each, 8 blocks of 32 KB and 4 blocks of 64 KB; supports individual sector or block erase for efficient firmware updates.
• Write Protection & Security — Software and hardware write protection with WP# pin; three lockable 512-byte OTP security sectors and support for Read Unique ID and SFDP signature.
• Power Efficiency — Low active current (~5 mA typical) and low power-down current (~1 µA typical) for energy-conscious systems.
• Industrial Grade & Package — Industrial operating temperature range −40°C to 85°C and available in a space-saving 8-pin WSON (5 × 6 mm) surface-mount package.
• Reliability — Minimum 100K program/erase cycles per sector and typical data retention of 20 years (datasheet values).

Typical Applications

• Embedded Systems — Firmware and boot code storage where fast read performance and uniform sector erase simplify field updates.
• Industrial Control — Non-volatile configuration and code storage in industrial equipment operating across −40°C to 85°C.
• IoT and Edge Devices — Compact surface-mount package and low-power standby support persistent storage for edge firmware and configuration.
• Consumer and Portable Electronics — High-speed SPI read options and small package size for firmware storage in space-constrained designs.

Unique Advantages

• High throughput read modes — 104 MHz clock with Dual/Quad I/O options enables equivalent multi-bit transfer rates for fast code execution and data retrieval.
• Flexible erase granularity — Uniform 4 KB sectors with block and chip erase options let you optimize update size and reduce erase/write overhead.
• Robust protection features — Hardware WP# plus software-protectable regions and OTP security sectors deliver layered protection for critical code.
• Low-power operation — Typical 5 mA active current and 1 µA power-down current reduce energy use in battery-backed and low-power systems.
• Industrial operating range — −40°C to 85°C specification and SMD WSON package support reliable deployment in demanding environments.
• Proven endurance and retention — Minimum 100K program/erase cycles per sector and 20-year data retention for long-term field reliability.
