Key Features

• Memory Capacity & Organization — 16 Mbit (2,048 KByte) organized as 2M × 8 with 8192 pages and 256 bytes per programmable page for efficient, byte‑level programming.
• Serial Interface — SPI compatible with Standard, Dual and Quad SPI support (CLK, CS#, DI/DO, WP#, HOLD# and DQ0–DQ3) and configurable dummy cycles for timing flexibility.
• Performance — 104 MHz clock rate for Standard, Dual and Quad SPI data transfer; access time listed as 8 ns in product data for fast read access.
• Program & Erase — Page program time typical 1 ms; sector erase typical 100 ms; block and chip erase options with chip erase typical 15 s (datasheet typical values).
• Power — Low power consumption with typical active current ~10 mA and typical power‑down current ~1 μA. Device supports single power supply operation with full voltage range 2.3–3.6 V and product data indicating a 2.5 V supply.
• Reliability & Security — Minimum 100K program/erase cycles per sector and 20‑year data retention; lockable 3 × 1024‑byte One‑Time‑Programmable (OTP) security sector; supports Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP) and Read Unique ID Number.
• Memory Architecture — Uniform sector architecture: 512 × 4 KByte sectors, 64 × 32 KByte blocks and 32 × 64 KByte blocks enabling individual sector/block erase and write suspend/resume.
• Package & Temperature — Surface‑mount 8‑pin SOP 200 mil package option; industrial operating temperature range −40 °C to 85 °C.
• Standards & Compatibility — SPI Mode 0 and Mode 3 compatible for straightforward integration into SPI host controllers.

Typical Applications

• Firmware and Boot Storage — Store bootloaders, firmware images and system code with block protection to prevent accidental overwrites.
• Field Firmware Updates & Code Patching — Support for individual sector erase/write and write‑protect mechanisms makes targeted updates and patching practical in deployed systems.
• Secure Configuration & Calibration Data — Lockable OTP sector and read unique ID capabilities enable storage of device IDs, calibration constants and configuration parameters.
• Industrial Embedded Systems — Industrial temperature grade and robust endurance/retention metrics suit factory automation, control modules and other industrial applications.

Unique Advantages

• Flexible SPI Modes: Standard, Dual and Quad SPI support enables designers to scale throughput without changing core memory architecture.
• Granular Erase & Protection: Uniform 4 KByte sectors and block‑level protection allow targeted updates while protecting critical code segments.
• Low Power Idle States: Typical 1 μA power‑down current reduces standby energy draw in battery‑sensitive or always‑on systems.
• Long-Term Reliability: Specified minimum 100K program/erase cycles and 20 years data retention support long product lifecycles and field reliability.
• Small, Industry‑Grade Package: 8‑pin SOP 200 mil surface‑mount package with −40 °C to 85 °C rating simplifies board integration in industrial designs.
• Security & Identification: Lockable OTP sector and unique ID read support secure data storage and device identification functions.
