Device Description

The N25Q is the first high-performance multiple input/output serial Flash memory de-

vice manufactured on 65nm NOR technology. It features execute-in-place (XIP) func-

tionality, advanced write protection mechanisms, and a high-speed SPI-compatible bus

interface. The innovative, high-performance, dual and quad input/output instructions

enable double or quadruple the transfer bandwidth for READ and PROGRAM opera-

tions.

Features

The memory is organized as 128 (64KB) main sectors that are further divided into 16

subsectors each (2048 subsectors in total). The memory can be erased one 4KB subsec-

tor at a time, 64KB sectors at a time, or as a whole.

The memory can be write protected by software through volatile and nonvolatile pro-

tection features, depending on the application needs. The protection granularity is of

64KB (sector granularity) for volatile protections

The device has 64 one-time programmable (OTP) bytes that can be read and program-

med with the READ OTP and PROGRAM OTP commands. These 64 bytes can also be

permanently locked with a PROGRAM OTP command.

The device also has the ability to pause and resume PROGRAM and ERASE cycles by us-

ing dedicated PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND and RESUME instructions.

Operating Protocols

The memory can be operated with three different protocols:

• Extended SPI (standard SPI protocol upgraded with dual and quad operations)

• Dual I/O SPI

• Quad I/O SPI

The standard SPI protocol is extended and enhanced by dual and quad operations. In

addition, the dual SPI and quad SPI protocols improve the data access time and

throughput of a single I/O device by transmitting commands, addresses, and data

across two or four data lines.

XIP Mode

XIP mode requires only an address (no instruction) to output data, improving random

access time and eliminating the need to shadow code onto RAM for fast execution.

All protocols support XIP operation. For flexibility, multiple XIP entry and exit methods

are available. For applications that must enter XIP mode immediately after powering

up, XIP mode can be set as the default mode through the nonvolatile configuration reg-

ister bits.

Device Configurability

The N25Q family offers additional features that are configured through the nonvolatile

configuration register for default and/or nonvolatile settings. Volatile settings can be

configured through the volatile and volatile-enhanced configuration registers. These

configurable features include the following:

• Number of dummy cycles for the fast READ commands

• Output buffer impedance

• SPI protocol types (extended SPI, DIO-SPI, or QIO-SPI)

• Required XIP mode

• Enabling/disabling HOLD (RESET function)

• Enabling/disabling wrap mode

Signal Descriptions

The signal description table below is a comprehensive list of signals for the N25 family

devices. All signals listed may not be supported on this device. See Signal Assignments

for information specific to this device.

Table 1: Signal Descriptions

Symbol Type Description

C Input Clock: Provides the timing of the serial interface. Commands, addresses, or data present at se-

rial data inputs are latched on the rising edge of the clock. Data is shifted out on the falling

edge of the clock.

S# Input Chip select: When S# is HIGH, the device is deselected and DQ1 is at High-Z. When in exten-

ded SPI mode, with the device deselected, DQ1 is tri-stated. Unless an internal PROGRAM,

ERASE, or WRITE STATUS REGISTER cycle is in progress, the device enters standby power mode

(not deep power-down mode). Driving S# LOW enables the device, placing it in the active pow-

er mode. After power-up, a falling edge on S# is required prior to the start of any command.

DQ0 Input

and I/O

Serial data: Transfers data serially into the device. It receives command codes, addresses, and

the data to be programmed. Values are latched on the rising edge of the clock. DQ0 is used for

input/output during the following operations: DUAL OUTPUT FAST READ, QUAD OUTPUT FAST

READ, DUAL INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ, and QUAD INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ. When used for

output, data is shifted out on the falling edge of the clock.

In DIO-SPI, DQ0 always acts as an input/output.

DQ1 Output

and I/O

Serial data:Transfers data serially out of the device. Data is shifted out on the falling edge of

the clock. DQ1 is used for input/output during the following operations: DUAL INPUT FAST

PROGRAM, QUAD INPUT FAST PROGRAM, DUAL INPUT EXTENDED FAST PROGRAM, and QUAD

INPUT EXTENDED FAST PROGRAM. When used for input, data is latched on the rising edge of

the clock.

In DIO-SPI, DQ1 always acts as an input/output.

DQ2 Input

and I/O

DQ2: When in QIO-SPI mode or in extended SPI mode using QUAD FAST READ commands, the

signal functions as DQ2, providing input/output.

All data input drivers are always enabled except when used as an output. Micron recommends

customers drive the data signals normally (to avoid unnecessary switching current) and float

the signals before the memory device drives data on them.

DQ3 Input

and I/O

DQ3: When in quad SPI mode or in extended SPI mode using quad FAST READ commands, the

signal functions as DQ3, providing input/output. HOLD# is disabled and RESET# is disabled if

the device is selected.

RESET# Control

Input

RESET: This is a hardware RESET# signal. When RESET# is driven HIGH, the memory is in the

normal operating mode. When RESET# is driven LOW, the memory enters reset mode and out-

put is High-Z. If RESET# is driven LOW while an internal WRITE, PROGRAM, or ERASE operation

is in progress, data may be lost.

Table 1: Signal Descriptions (Continued)

Symbol Type Description

HOLD# Control

Input

HOLD: Pauses any serial communications with the device without deselecting the device. DQ1

(output) is High-Z. DQ0 (input) and the clock are "Don't Care." To enable HOLD, the device

must be selected with S# driven LOW.

HOLD# is used for input/output during the following operations: QUAD OUTPUT FAST READ,

QUAD INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ, QUAD INPUT FAST PROGRAM, and QUAD INPUT EXTENDED

FAST PROGRAM.

In QIO-SPI, HOLD# acts as an I/O (DQ3 functionality), and the HOLD# functionality is disabled

when the device is selected. When the device is deselected (S# is HIGH) in parts with RESET#

functionality, it is possible to reset the device unless this functionality is not disabled by means

of dedicated registers bits.

The HOLD# functionality can be disabled using bit 4 of the NVCR or bit 4 of the VECR.

W# Control

Input

Write protect: W# can be used as a protection control input or in QIO-SPI operations. When in

extended SPI with single or dual commands, the WRITE PROTECT function is selectable by the

voltage range applied to the signal. If voltage range is low (0V to VCC), the signal acts as a

write protection control input. The memory size protected against PROGRAM or ERASE opera-

tions is locked as specified in the status register block protect bits 3:0.

W# is used as an input/output (DQ2 functionality) during QUAD INPUT FAST READ and QUAD

INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ operations and in QIO-SPI.

VCC Power Device core power supply: Source voltage.

VSS Ground Ground: Reference for the VCC supply voltage.

DNU – Do not use.

NC – No connect.

Device Protection

Table 3: Data Protection using Device Protocols

Note 1 applies to the entire table

Protection by: Description

Power-on reset and internal timer Protects the device against inadvertent data changes while the power supply is out-

side the operating specification.

Command execution check Ensures that the number of clock pulses is a multiple of one byte before executing a

PROGRAM or ERASE command, or any command that writes to the device registers.

WRITE ENABLE operation Ensures that commands modifying device data must be preceded by a WRITE ENABLE

command, which sets the write enable latch bit in the status register.

Note: 1. Extended, dual, and quad SPI protocol functionality ensures that device data is protec-

ted from excessive noise.

Serial Peripheral Interface Modes

The device can be driven by a microcontroller while its serial peripheral interface is in

either of the two modes shown here. The difference between the two modes is the clock

polarity when the bus master is in standby mode and not transferring data. Input data is

latched in on the rising edge of the clock, and output data is available from the falling

edge of the clock.

Table 7: SPI Modes

Note 1 applies to the entire table

SPI Modes Clock Polarity

CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0 C remains at 0 for (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0)

CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1 C remains at 1 for (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1)

Note: 1. The listed SPI modes are supported in extended, dual, and quad SPI protocols.

Shown below is an example of three memory devices in extended SPI protocol in a sim-

ple connection to an MCU on an SPI bus. Because only one device is selected at a time,

that one device drives DQ1, while the other devices are High-Z.

Resistors ensure the device is not selected if the bus master leaves S# High-Z. The bus

master might enter a state in which all input/output is High-Z simultaneously, such as

when the bus master is reset. Therefore, the serial clock must be connected to an exter-

nal pull-down resistor so that S# is pulled HIGH while the serial clock is pulled LOW.

This ensures that S# and the serial clock are not HIGH simultaneously and that tSHCH

is met. The typical resistor value of 100kΩ, assuming that the time constant R × Cp (Cp =

parasitic capacitance of the bus line), is shorter than the time the bus master leaves the

SPI bus in High-Z.

Example: Cp = 50pF, that is R × Cp = 5μs. The application must ensure that the bus mas-

ter never leaves the SPI bus High-Z for a time period shorter than 5μs. W# and HOLD#

should be driven either HIGH or LOW, as appropriate.

Dual DQ[1:0] DQ[1:0] DQ[1:0] Volatile selectable: When the enhanced volatile configu-

ration register bit 6 is set to 0 and bit 7 is set to 1, the de-

vice enters the dual SPI protocol immediately after the

the next power-on. In addition, the device can return to de-

fault protocol using the rescue sequence or through new

command, without power-off or power-on.

Nonvolatile selectable: When nonvolatile configuration

Nonvolatile and Volatile Registers

The device features the following volatile and nonvolatile registers that users can access

to store device parameters and operating configurations:

• Status register

• Nonvolatile and volatile configuration registers

• Enhanced volatile configuration register

• Flag status register

• Lock register

Note: The lock register is defined in READ LOCK REGISTER Command.

In addition to these user-accessible registers, the working condition of memory is set by

an internal configuration register that is not directly accessible to users. As shown be-

low, parameters in the internal configuration register are loaded from the nonvolatile

configuration register during each device boot phase or power-on reset. In this sense,

then, the nonvolatile configuration register contains the default settings of memory.

Also, during the life of an application, each time a WRITE VOLATILE or ENHANCED

VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command executes to set configuration pa-

rameters in these respective registers, these new settings are copied to the internal con-

figuration register. Therefore, memory settings can be changed in real time. However, at

the next power-on reset, the memory boots according to the memory settings defined

in the nonvolatile configuration register parameters.

area is protected from PROGRAM and ERASE operations.

1 Write enable latch 0 = Cleared (Default)

1 = Set

Volatile bit: The device always powers up with this bit

cleared to prevent inadvertent WRITE STATUS REGISTER,

PROGRAM, or ERASE operations. To enable these opera-

tions, the WRITE ENABLE operation must be executed first

to set this bit.

0 Write in progress 0 = Ready

1 = Busy

Volatile bit: Indicates if one of the following command cy-

cles is in progress:

WRITE STATUS REGISTER

WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER

PROGRAM

ERASE

Notes: 1. Bits can be read from or written to using READ STATUS REGISTER or WRITE STATUS REG-

ISTER commands, respectively.

2. Volatile bits are cleared to 0 by a power cycle or reset.

3. The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with the W# signal as described in

the Signal Descriptions, provides hardware data protection for the device as follows:

When the enable/disable bit is set to 1, and the W# signal is driven LOW, the status reg-

ister nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER operation will

not execute. The only way to exit this hardware-protected mode is to drive W# HIGH.

4. See Protected Area Sizes tables in Device Protection. The BULK ERASE command is exe-

cuted only if all bits are 0.

Notes: 1. Settings determine device memory configuration after power-on. The device ships from

the factory with all bits erased to 1 (FFFFh), except the parts with HOLD# feature disa-

bled, where the bit 4 of the NVCR is pre-programmed to “0”. . The register is read from

or written to by READ NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER or WRITE NONVOLA-

TILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER commands, respectively.

2. The 0000 and 1111 settings are identical in that they both define the default state,

which is the maximum frequency of fc = 108 MHz. This ensures backward compatibility.

3. If the number of dummy clock cycles is insufficient for the operating frequency, the

memory reads wrong data. The number of cycles must be set according to and sufficient

for the clock frequency, which varies by the type of FAST READ command, as shown in

the Supported Clock Frequencies table.

READ REGISTER and WRITE REGISTER Operations

READ STATUS REGISTER or FLAG STATUS REGISTER Command

To initiate a READ STATUS REGISTER command, S# is driven LOW. For extended SPI

protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, and output on DQ1. For dual SPI proto-

col, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], and output on DQ[1:0]. For quad SPI proto-

col, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], and is output on DQ[3:0]. The operation is

terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during data output.

The status register can be read continuously and at any time, including during a PRO-

GRAM, ERASE, or WRITE operation.

The flag status register can be read continuously and at any time, including during an

ERASE or WRITE operation.

If one of these operations is in progress, checking the write in progress bit or P/E con-

troller bit is recommended before executing the command.

READ NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Command

To execute a READ NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, S# is driv-

en LOW. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, and output on

DQ1. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], and output on

DQ[1:0]. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], and is output

output.

The nonvolatile configuration register can be read continuously. After all 16 bits of the

READ VOLATILE or ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Command

To execute a READ VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command or a READ EN-

HANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, S# is driven LOW. For ex-

tended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, and output on DQ1. For dual

SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], and output on DQ[1:0]. For quad

SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], and is output on DQ[3:0]. The op-

eration is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during data output.

When the register is read continuously, the same byte is output repeatedly.

WRITE STATUS REGISTER Command

To issue a WRITE STATUS REGISTER command, the WRITE ENABLE command must be

executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the

eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH.

For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, followed by the data

bytes. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], followed by the da-

ta bytes. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], followed by the

data bytes. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-timed, is initiated; its

duration is tW.

This command is used to write new values to status register bits 7:2, enabling software

data protection. The status register can also be combined with the W# signal to provide

hardware data protection. The WRITE STATUS REGISTER command has no effect on

status register bits 1:0.

When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable

latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register

and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation com-

pletes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or

not.

3. A WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER operation requires data being sent

starting from least significant byte.

WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Command

To execute the WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, the

WRITE ENABLE command must be executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is

driven LOW and held LOW until the 16th bit of the last data byte has been latched in,

after which it must be driven HIGH. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is

input on DQ0, followed by two data bytes. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is

input on DQ[1:0], followed by the data bytes. For quad SPI protocol, the command code

is input on DQ[3:0], followed by the data bytes. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation,

which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tWNVCR.

When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable

latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register

and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation com-

pletes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or

not. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error

bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1.

WRITE VOLATILE or ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Command

To execute a WRITE VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command or a WRITE

ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, the WRITE ENABLE

command must be executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and

held LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it

must be driven HIGH. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0,

followed by the data bytes. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on

DQ[1:0], followed by the data bytes. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input

on DQ[3:0], followed by the data bytes.

If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, the flag status register error bits

are not set and the write enable latch remains set to 1. Reserved bits are not affected by

this command.

READ LOCK REGISTER Command

To execute the READ LOCK REGISTER command, S# is driven LOW. For extended SPI

protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, followed by three address bytes that

point to a location in the sector. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on

DQ[1:0]. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0]. Each address

bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock. For extended SPI protocol, data is

shifted out on DQ1 at a maximum frequency fC during the falling edge of the clock. For

dual SPI protocol, data is shifted out on DQ[1:0], and for quad SPI protocol, data is shif-

ted out on DQ[3:0]. The operation is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during

data output.

When the register is read continuously, the same byte is output repeatedly. Any READ

LOCK REGISTER command that is executed while an ERASE, PROGRAM, or WRITE cy-

cle is in progress is rejected with no affect on the cycle in progress.

Table 17: Lock Register

Note 1 applies to entire table

Bit Name Settings Description

7:2 Reserved 0 Bit values are 0.

1 Sector lock down 0 = Cleared (Default)

1 = Set

Volatile bit: the device always powers-up with this bit cleared,

which means sector lock down and sector write lock bits can be

set.

When this bit set, neither of the lock register bits can be written

to until the next power cycle.

0 Sector write lock 0 = Cleared (Default)

1 = Set

Volatile bit: the device always powers-up with this bit cleared,

which means that PROGRAM and ERASE operations in this sector

can be executed and sector content modified.

When this bit is set, PROGRAM and ERASE operations in this sec-

tor will not be executed.

Note: 1. Sector lock register bits 1:0 are written to by the WRITE LOCK REGISTER command. The

command will not execute unless the sector lock down bit is cleared.

For quad SPI protocol, Cx = 1 + ((A[MAX] + 1)/4).

WRITE LOCK REGISTER Command

To initiate the WRITE LOCK REGISTER command, the WRITE ENABLE command must

be executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until

the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven

HIGH. The command code is input on DQn, followed by three address bytes that point

to a location in the sector, and then one data byte that contains the desired settings for

lock register bits 0 and 1. Each address bit is latched in during the rising edge of the

clock.

When execution is complete, the write enable latch bit is cleared within tSHSL2 and no

error bits are set. Because lock register bits are volatile, change to the bits is immediate.

WRITE LOCK REGISTER can be executed when an ERASE SUSPEND operation is in ef-

fect. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error

bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1.

CLEAR FLAG STATUS REGISTER Command

To execute the CLEAR FLAG STATUS REGISTER command and reset the error bits

(erase, program, and protection), S# is driven LOW. For extended SPI protocol, the com-

mand code is input on DQ0. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on

DQ[1:0]. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0]. The operation

is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time.

READ IDENTIFICATION Operations

READ ID and MULTIPLE I/O READ ID Commands

To execute the READ ID or MULTIPLE I/O READ ID commands, S# is driven LOW and

the command code is input on DQn. The device outputs the information shown in the

tables below. If an ERASE or PROGRAM cycle is in progress when the command is exe-

cuted, the command is not decoded and the command cycle in progress is not affected.

When S# is driven HIGH, the device goes to standby. The operation is terminated by

driving S# HIGH at any time during data output.

READ SERIAL FLASH DISCOVERY PARAMETER Command

To execute READ SERIAL FLASH DISCOVERY PARAMETER command, S# is driven

LOW. The command code is input on DQ0, followed by three address bytes and 8 dum-

my clock cycles in extended or dual SPI protocol, 10 dummy clock cycles in quad SPI

protocol. The device outputs the information starting from the specified address. When

the 2048-byte boundary is reached, the data output wraps to address 0 of the serial

Flash discovery parameter table. The operation is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any

time during data output.

The operation always executes in continuous mode so the read burst wrap setting in the

volatile configuration register does not apply.

Note: Data to be stored in the serial Flash discovery parameter area is still in the defini-

tion phase.

READ MEMORY Operations

The device supports default reading and writing to an A[MAX:MIN] of A[23:0].

To execute READ MEMORY commands, S# is driven LOW. The command code is input

on DQn, followed by input on DQn of three address bytes. Each address bit is latched in

during the rising edge of the clock. The addressed byte can be at any location, and the

address automatically increments to the next address after each byte of data is shifted

out; therefore, the entire memory can be read with a single command. The operation is

terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during data output.

Notes: 1. Yes in the "Supported" row for each protocol indicates that the command in that col-

umn is supported; when supported, a command's functionality is identical for the entire

column regardless of the protocol. For example, a FAST READ functions the same for all

three protocols even though its data is input/output differently depending on the pro-

tocol.

2. FAST READ is similar to READ, but requires dummy clock cycles following the address

bytes and can operate at a higher frequency (fC).

PROGRAM Operations

PROGRAM commands are initiated by first executing the WRITE ENABLE command to

set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is then driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth

bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The

command code is input on DQ0, followed by input on DQ[n] of address bytes and at

least one data byte. Each address bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock.

When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is

tPP.

If the bits of the least significant address, which is the starting address, are not all zero,

all data transmitted beyond the end of the current page is programmed from the start-

ing address of the same page. If the number of bytes sent to the device exceed the maxi-

mum page size, previously latched data is discarded and only the last maximum page-

size number of data bytes are guaranteed to be programmed correctly within the same

page. If the number of bytes sent to the device is less than the maximum page size, they

are correctly programmed at the specified addresses without any effect on the other

bytes of the same page.

When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable

latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register

and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. An operation can be

paused or resumed by the PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND or PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME

command, respectively. When the operation completes, the write in progress bit is

cleared to 0.

If the operation times out, the write enable latch bit is reset and the program fail bit is

set to 1. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error

bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1. When a command is applied

to a protected sector, the command is not executed, the write enable latch bit remains

set to 1, and flag status register bits 1 and 4 are set.

WRITE Operations

WRITE ENABLE Command

The WRITE ENABLE operation sets the write enable latch bit. To execute a WRITE ENA-

BLE command, S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the command

code has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The command code is

input on DQ0 for extended SPI protocol, on DQ[1:0] for dual SPI protocol, and on

DQ[3:0] for quad SPI protocol.

The write enable latch bit must be set before every PROGRAM, ERASE, and WRITE com-

mand. If S# is not driven HIGH after the command code has been latched in, the com-

mand is not executed, flag status register error bits are not set, and the write enable

latch remains cleared to its default setting of 0.

WRITE DISABLE Command

The WRITE DISABLE operation clears the write enable latch bit. To execute a WRITE

DISABLE command, S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the com-

mand code has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The command

code is input on DQ0 for extended SPI protocol, on DQ[1:0] for dual SPI protocol, and

on DQ[3:0] for quad SPI protocol.

If S# is not driven HIGH after the command code has been latched in, the command is

not executed, flag status register error bits are not set, and the write enable latch re-

mains set to 1.

RESET ENABLE and RESET MEMORY Command

To reset the device, the RESET ENABLE command must be followed by the RESET

MEMORY command. To execute each command, S# is driven LOW. The command code

is input on DQ0. A minimum de-selection time of tSHSL2 must come between the RE-

SET ENABLE and RESET MEMORY commands or a reset is not guaranteed. When these

two commands are executed and S# is driven HIGH, the device enters a power-on reset

condition. A time of tSHSL3 is required before the device can be re-selected by driving

S# LOW. It is recommended that the device exit XIP mode before executing these two

commands to initiate a reset.

If a reset is initiated while a WRITE, PROGRAM, or ERASE operation is in progress or

suspended, the operation is aborted and data may be corrupted.

RESET Conditions

All volatile lock bits, the volatile configuration register, and the enhanced volatile con-

figuration register are reset to the power-on reset default condition. The power-on reset

condition depends on settings in the nonvolatile configuration register.

ERASE Operations

SUBSECTOR ERASE Command

To execute the SUBSECTOR ERASE command (and set the selected subsector bits set to

FFh), the WRITE ENABLE command must be issued to set the write enable latch bit to

1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been

latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The command code is input on DQ0,

followed by three address bytes; any address within the subsector is valid. Each address

bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock. When S# is driven HIGH, the opera-

tion, which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tSSE. The operation can be suspen-

ded and resumed by the PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND and PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME

commands, respectively.

If the write enable latch bit is not set, the device ignores the SUBSECTOR ERASE com-

mand and no error bits are set to indicate operation failure.

When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable

latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register

and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation com-

pletes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0.

If the operation times out, the write enable latch bit is reset and the erase error bit is set

to 1. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error

bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1. When a command is applied

to a protected subsector, the command is not executed. Instead, the write enable latch

bit remains set to 1, and flag status register bits 1 and 5 are set.

SECTOR ERASE Command

To execute the SECTOR ERASE command (and set selected sector bits to FFh), the

WRITE ENABLE command must be issued to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is

driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in,

after which it must be driven HIGH. The command code is input on DQ0, followed by

three address bytes; any address within the sector is valid. Each address bit is latched in

during the rising edge of the clock. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is

self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tSE. The operation can be suspended and resumed

by the PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND and PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME commands, re-

spectively.

If the write enable latch bit is not set, the device ignores the SECTOR ERASE command

and no error bits are set to indicate operation failure.

When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1 and the write ena-

ble latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status regis-

ter and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation

completes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0.

If the operation times out, the write enable latch bit is reset and erase error bit is set to

1. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error bits

are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1. When a command is applied to a

protected sector, the command is not executed. Instead, the write enable latch bit re-

mains set to 1, and flag status register bits 1 and 5 are set.

BULK ERASE Command

To initiate the BULK ERASE command, the WRITE ENABLE command must be issued

to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit

of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The com-

mand code is input on DQ0. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-

timed, is initiated; its duration is tBE.

If the write enable latch bit is not set, the device ignores the BULK ERASE command

and no error bits are set to indicate operation failure.

When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1 and the write ena-

ble latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status regis-

ter and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation

completes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0.

If the operation times out, the write enable latch bit is reset and erase error bit is set to

1. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, the flag status register error

bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1.

The command is not executed if any sector is locked. Instead, the write enable latch bit

remains set to 1, and flag status register bits 1 and 5 are set.

and suspend an array PROGRAM or ERASE operation within the program/erase latency.

If a SUSPEND command is issued during a PROGRAM operation, then the flag status

also set to 1, showing the device to be in a suspended state, waiting for any operation

(see the Operations Allowed/Disallowed During Device States table).

If a SUSPEND command is issued during an ERASE operation, then the flag status regis-

ter bit 6 is set to 1. After erase/program latency time, the flag status register bit 7 is also

set to 1, showing that device to be in a suspended state, waiting for any operation (see

the Operations Allowed/Disallowed During Device States table).

If the time remaining to complete the operation is less than the suspend latency, the de-

vice completes the operation and clears the flag status register bits 2 or 6, as applicable.

Because the suspend state is volatile, if there is a power cycle, the suspend state infor-

mation is lost and the flag status register powers up as 80h.

During an ERASE SUSPEND operation, a PROGRAM or READ operation is possible in

any sector except the one in a suspended state. Reading from a sector that is in a sus-

pended state will output indeterminate data. The device ignores a PROGRAM com-

mand to a sector that is in an ERASE SUSPEND state; it also sets the flag status register

bit 4 to 1: program failure/protection error, and leaves the write enable latch bit un-

changed. The commands allowed during an erase suspend state include the WRITE

LOCK REGISTER command, the WRITE VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER com-

mand, and the WRITE ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command.

When the ERASE operation resumes, it does not check the new lock status of the WRITE

LOCK REGISTER command.

During a PROGRAM SUSPEND operation, a READ operation is possible in any page ex-

cept the one in a suspended state. Reading from a page that is in a suspended state will

output indeterminate data. The commands allowed during a program suspend state in-

clude the WRITE VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command and the WRITE

ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command.

It is possible to nest a PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND operation inside a PROGRAM/

ERASE SUSPEND operation just once. Issue an ERASE command and suspend it. Then

issue a PROGRAM command and suspend it also. With the two operations suspended,

the next PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command resumes the latter operation, and a sec-

ond PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command resumes the former (or first) operation.

Notes: 1. The device can be in only one state at a time. Depending on the state of the device,

some operations are allowed (Yes) and others are not (No). For example, when the de-

vice is in the standby state, all operations except SUSPEND are allowed in any sector. For

all device states except the erase suspend state, if an operation is allowed or disallowed

in one sector, it is allowed or disallowed in all other sectors. In the erase suspend state, a

PROGRAM operation is allowed in any sector except the one in which an ERASE opera-

tion has been suspended.

2. All READ operations except READ STATUS REGISTER and READ FLAG REGISTER. When is-

sued to a sector or subsector that is simultaneously in an erase suspend state, the READ

operation is accepted, but the data output is not guaranteed until the erase has comple-

ted.

3. All PROGRAM operations except PROGRAM OTP. In the erase suspend state, a PROGRAM

operation is allowed in any sector (Yes) except the sector (No) in which an ERASE opera-

tion has been suspended.

PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME Command

To initiate the PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command, S# is driven LOW. The command

code is input on DQ0. The operation is terminated by driving S# HIGH.

When this command is executed, the status register write in progress bit is set to 1, and

the flag status register program erase controller bit is set to 0. This command is ignored

if the device is not in a suspended state.

ONE TIME PROGRAMMABLE Operations

READ OTP ARRAY Command

To initiate a READ OTP ARRAY command, S# is driven LOW. The command code is in-

put on DQ0, followed by three bytes and dummy clock cycles. Each address bit is latch-

ed in during the rising edge of C. Data is shifted out on DQ1, beginning from the speci-

fied address and at a maximum frequency of fC (MAX) on the falling edge of the clock.

The address increments automatically to the next address after each byte of data is shif-

ted out. There is no rollover mechanism; therefore, if read continuously, after location

40h, the device continues to output data at location 40h. The operation is terminated by

driving S# HIGH at any time during data output.

PROGRAM OTP ARRAY Command

To initiate the PROGRAM OTP ARRAY command, the WRITE ENABLE command must

be issued to set the write enable latch bit to 1; otherwise, the PROGRAM OTP ARRAY

command is ignored and flag status register bits are not set. S# is driven LOW and held

LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be

driven HIGH. The command code is input on DQ0, followed by three bytes and at least

one data byte. Each address bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock. When S#

is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tPOTP.

There is no rollover mechanism; therefore, after a maximum of 65 bytes are latched in

and subsequent bytes are discarded.

PROGRAM OTP ARRAY programs, at most, 64 bytes to the OTP memory area and one

OTP control byte. When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1.

The write enable latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not, and

the status register and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When

the operation completes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0.

If the operation times out, the write enable latch bit is reset and the program fail bit is

set to 1. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error

bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1.

The OTP control byte (byte 64) is used to permanently lock the OTP memory array.

0 OTP control byte 0 = Locked

1 = Unlocked

(Default)

Used to permanently lock the OTP array (byte 64). When bit 0 = 1, the

OTP array can be programmed. When bit 0 = 0, the OTP array is read only.

Once bit 0 has been programmed to 0, it can no longer be changed to 1.

PROGRAM OTP ARRAY is ignored, write enable latch bit remains set, and

flag status register bits 1 and 4 are set.

XIP Mode

Execute-in-place (XIP) mode allows the memory to be read by sending an address to the

device and then receiving the data on one, two, or four pins in parallel, depending on

the customer requirements. XIP mode offers maximum flexibility to the application,

saves instruction overhead, and reduces random access time.

Activate or Terminate XIP Using Volatile Configuration Register

Applications that boot in SPI and must switch to XIP use the volatile configuration reg-

ister. XIP provides faster memory READ operations by requiring only an address to exe-

cute, rather than a command code and an address.

To activate XIP requires two steps. First, enable XIP by setting volatile configuration reg-

ister bit 3 to 0. Next, drive the XIP confirmation bit to 0 during the next FAST READ op-

eration. XIP is then active. Once in XIP, any command that occurs after S# is toggled re-

quires only address bits to execute; a command code is not necessary, and device oper-

ations use the SPI protocol that is enabled. XIP is terminated by driving the XIP confir-

mation bit to 1. The device automatically resets volatile configuration register bit 3 to 1.

Activate or Terminate XIP Using Nonvolatile Configuration Register

Applications that must boot directly in XIP use the nonvolatile configuration register. To

enable a device to power-up in XIP using the nonvolatile configuration register, set non-

volatile configuration register bits [11:9]. Settings vary according to protocol, as ex-

plained in the Nonvolatile Configuration Register section. Because the device boots di-

rectly in XIP, the confirmation bit is already set to 0, and after the next power cycle, XIP

is active. Once in XIP, a command code is unnecessary, and device operations use the

SPI protocol currently enabled. XIP is terminated by driving the XIP confirmation bit to

Confirmation Bit Settings Required to Activate or Terminate XIP

The XIP confirmation bit setting activates or terminates XIP after it has been enabled or

disabled. This bit is the value on DQ0 during the first dummy clock cycle in the FAST

READ operation. XIP requires at least one additional clock cycle to send the XIP confir-

mation bit to the memory on DQ0 during the first dummy clock cycle.

Table 28: XIP Confirmation Bit

Bit Value Description

0 Activates XIP: While this bit is 0, XIP remains activated.

1 Terminates XIP: When this bit is set to 1, XIP is terminated and the device returns to SPI.

In a device with a dedicated part number where RST# is enabled, a LOW pulse on RST#

resets XIP and the device to the state it was in previous to the last power-up, as defined

by the nonvolatile configuration register.

Terminating XIP After a Controller and Memory Reset

The system controller and the device can become out of synchronization if, during the

life of the application, the system controller is reset without the device being reset. In

such a case, the controller can reset the memory to power-on reset if the memory has

reset functionality. (Reset is available in devices with a dedicated part number.)

If reset functionality is not available, has been disabled, or is not supported by the con-

troller, the controller must execute the following sequence to terminate XIP in the

memory device. In quad I/O protocol, drive DQ0 = 1 with S# held LOW for seven clock

cycles; S# must driven HIGH before the eighth clock cycle. In dual I/O protocol, drive

DQ0 = 1 with S# held LOW for 13 clock cycles; S# must driven HIGH before the four-

teenth clock cycle. If the device is in extended protocol, drive DQ0 = 1 with S# held LOW

for 25 clock cycles; S# must driven HIGH before the twenty-sixth clock cycle.

These sequences cause the controller to set the XIP confirmation bit to 1, thereby termi-

nating XIP. However, it does not reset the device or interrupt PROGRAM/ERASE opera-

tions that may be in progress. After terminating XIP, the controller must execute RESET

ENABLE and RESET MEMORY to implement a software reset and reset the device.

Power-Up and Power-Down

Power-Up and Power-Down Requirements

At power-up and power-down, the device must not be selected; that is, S# must follow

the voltage applied on VCC until VCC reaches the correct values: VCC,min at power-up and

VSS at power-down.

To avoid data corruption and inadvertent WRITE operations during power-up, a power-

on reset circuit is included. The logic inside the device is held to RESET while VCC is less

than the power-on reset threshold voltage shown here; all operations are disabled, and

the device does not respond to any instruction. During a standard power-up phase, the

device ignores all commands except READ STATUS REGISTER and READ FLAG STATUS

power-up, the device is in standby power mode; the write enable latch bit is reset; the

write in progress bit is reset; and the lock registers are configured as: (write lock bit, lock

down bit) = (0,0).

Normal precautions must be taken for supply line decoupling to stabilize the VCC sup-

ply. Each device in a system should have the VCC line decoupled by a suitable capacitor

(typically 100nF) close to the package pins. At power-down, when VCC drops from the

operating voltage to below the power-on-reset threshold voltage shown here, all opera-

tions are disabled and the device does not respond to any command.

Note: If power-down occurs while a WRITE, PROGRAM, or ERASE cycle is in pro-

gress, data corruption may result.

Power Loss Rescue Sequence

If a power loss occurs during a WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER

command, after the next power-on, the device might begin in an undetermined state

(XIP mode or an unnecessary protocol). If this happens, until the next power-up, a res-

cue sequence must reset the device to a fixed state (extended SPI protocol without XIP).

After the rescue sequence, the issue should be resolved by running the WRITE NONVO-

LATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command again. The rescue sequence is com-

posed of two parts that must be run in the correct order. During the entire sequence,

tSHSL2 must be at least 50ns. The first part of the sequence is DQ0 (PAD DATA) and

DQ3 (PAD HOLD) equal to 1 for the situations listed below:

• 7 clock cycles within S# LOW (S# becomes HIGH before 8th clock cycle)

• + 13 clock cycles within S# LOW (S# becomes HIGH before 14th clock cycle)

• + 25 clock cycles within S# LOW (S# becomes HIGH before 26th clock cycle)

The second part of the sequence is exiting from dual or quad SPI protocol by using the

following FFh sequence: DQ0 and DQ3 equal to 1 for 8 clock cycles within S# LOW; S#

becomes HIGH before 9th clock cycle.

After this two-part sequence the extended SPI protocol is active.
