FLASH - NOR Memory IC 512Mbit SPI - Quad I/O 133 MHz 24-T-PBGA (6x8)
Active

Overview

The MT25QL512ABB8E12-0SIT is a high-density 512Mbit Serial NOR Flash memory device designed for high-performance embedded systems. It utilizes a Quad I/O SPI interface to achieve clock frequencies up to 133 MHz, supporting rapid data throughput and Execute-in-Place (XiP) functionality. This memory operates on a 2.7V to 3.6V supply range and is housed in a compact 24-ball T-PBGA package.

Why Choose This Part

This device offers a high-speed 133 MHz clock rate with Quad I/O and DTR support for maximum throughput. It features low power consumption with a 16mA active read current and a deep power-down mode for energy-sensitive designs. The 24-ball BGA footprint provides a robust and space-efficient solution compared to traditional SOIC packages.

Applications

Boot Code Storage
Storing bootloader and firmware images for high-end microcontrollers and FPGAs that require fast initialization.
Execute-in-Place (XiP)
Running application code directly from the Flash memory to reduce internal RAM requirements in the host processor.
FPGA Bitstream Storage
Providing non-volatile storage for large FPGA configuration files that must be loaded quickly upon power-up.
Industrial Data Logging
Reliable storage for system logs and sensor data in industrial equipment operating between -40C and 85C.

Getting Started

Integrate this device using standard SPI, Dual, or Quad SPI drivers provided by your MCU manufacturer. Ensure your hardware abstraction layer (HAL) supports 4-byte addressing modes required to access the full 512Mbit density. For prototyping, utilize a BGA-24 to DIP adapter or an FPGA development board with a compatible PMOD or FMC flash expansion slot.
