Overview

The SST25VF016B is a 16Mbit SPI serial flash memory utilizing CMOS SuperFlash technology to improve reliability and data retention. It operates within a 2.7V to 3.6V supply range and supports clock frequencies up to 50 MHz for fast data access. The device is organized as 2M x 8 and comes in a space-efficient 8-SOIC package suitable for high-density applications.

Why Choose This Part

The component offers high endurance and 100-year data retention, ensuring long-term reliability in industrial environments. Its 10 mA typical active current and 5 uA standby current make it ideal for power-sensitive designs, while the 50 MHz SPI interface provides sufficient bandwidth for most embedded tasks.

Applications

Microcontroller Firmware Storage
Acting as external boot or application code storage for MCUs with limited internal flash.
Data Logging
Recording sensor data and system logs in battery-powered devices due to low 5uA standby current.
FPGA Configuration
Storing bitstream data to configure FPGAs during power-on reset cycles.
