W74M25JVZEIQ

The W74M25JVZEIQ is a 256 Mbit serial flash memory device in Winbond's SpiFlash® family. It is a 3V NAND Flash-based non-volatile memory organized as 32M x 8 and designed for compact systems requiring code storage, execute-in-place (XIP) and data retention.

This device supports standard SPI plus Dual/Quad I/O SPI, QPI and DTR interfaces, includes secure authentication features, and is offered in a space-saving 8-WSON (8×6 mm) package for size-constrained applications.

Key Features

• Memory Density & Organization — 256 Mbit capacity organized as 32M × 8 for code and data storage.
• Memory Technology — Non-volatile FLASH (NAND) memory suitable for persistent storage.
• Serial Interfaces — SPI with Dual/Quad I/O, QPI and DTR support to enable higher-bandwidth serial transfers when used with compatible controllers.
• Clock — Documented clock frequency: 80 MHz.
• Execute-in-Place (XIP) — Supports executing code directly from Dual/Quad SPI as described in the product documentation.
• Security & Authentication — Built-in secure authentication features including a Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) SHA-256 crypto accelerator, dedicated authentication command set, and authentication flash operations.
• Device Identification & Security Registers — JEDEC standard manufacturer/device ID and SFDP, a 64-bit unique serial number, and three 256-byte security registers.
• Power & Voltage — Operates from 2.7 V to 3.6 V, matching common 3V system rails.
• Temperature Range — Specified operating ambient range of −40 °C to 85 °C.
• Package — 8-pad WSON (8-WSON, 8 × 6 mm) with exposed pad (8-WDFN) for a compact board footprint and thermal conduction.

Typical Applications

• Embedded systems and firmware storage — Code shadowing to RAM and execute-in-place (XIP) from Dual/Quad SPI for systems with limited pin count and board area.
• Consumer and multimedia storage — Storage of voice, text and other data where a 256 Mbit serial flash is required.
• Secure authentication and key storage — On-chip HMAC SHA-256 and authentication flash operations for secure device authentication and monotonic counter support.

Unique Advantages

• Secure authentication built-in — Integrated HMAC SHA-256 accelerator and dedicated authentication commands provide on-device cryptographic capabilities for integrity and authentication use cases.
• Flexible high-speed serial interfaces — Dual/Quad I/O, QPI and DTR modes allow higher effective data rates when paired with compatible hosts.
• Compact thermal-friendly package — 8-WSON (8 × 6 mm) with exposed pad minimizes PCB area while providing a thermal path for reliable operation.
• Wide operating conditions — 2.7 V–3.6 V supply and −40 °C to 85 °C operating range support common 3V systems and extended ambient temperatures.
• Device identification and security registers — JEDEC ID, SFDP, a 64-bit unique serial number and dedicated security registers simplify inventorying and secure storage tasks.
