Overview

The S25FL256SAGMFIR10 is a 256Mbit (32MB) non-volatile CMOS Flash memory device utilizing MirrorBit technology for high-density storage. It features a Quad I/O SPI interface capable of clock frequencies up to 133 MHz, providing high throughput for execute-in-place (XIP) operations and data logging applications.

Why Choose This Part

This component offers a high clock frequency of 133 MHz and support for Quad I/O to maximize data transfer rates. Its MirrorBit technology ensures high-density storage in a standard 16-SOIC footprint, and it maintains a low standby current of 70 uA to conserve power in battery-operated systems.

Applications

High-Performance Execute-In-Place (XIP)
Used as external code storage for microcontrollers and FPGAs that boot or run code directly from SPI flash via Quad-SPI mode.
Industrial Data Logging
Reliable storage for sensor telemetry and system logs in industrial environments requiring operation from -40C to +85C.
FPGA Bitstream Storage
Storing configuration bitstreams for high-gate-count FPGAs that require fast loading times at power-on.
Graphics and Asset Storage
Holding UI assets, fonts, and bitmaps for embedded displays in medical or human-machine interface (HMI) devices.
