Overview

The SST25VF080B-50-4C-S2AF is an 8 Mbit SPI Serial Flash memory module utilizing proprietary SuperFlash technology for high-performance memory operations. It operates on a single voltage supply between 2.7V and 3.6V and supports a clock frequency up to 50 MHz. This device is organized as 1M x 8 and is designed for applications requiring cost-effective, high-reliability non-volatile storage in a compact 8-pin SOIC package.

Why Choose This Part

This NOR Flash features a fast 10us word/page write cycle and a low standby current of 5uA, making it suitable for battery-conscious designs. The device includes robust hardware and software write protection, plus a dedicated HOLD pin to pause serial communication without deselecting the device.

Applications

Microcontroller Boot Code
Storing executable bootloader code for MCUs that lack sufficient internal flash memory.
Configuration Storage
Retaining FPGA bitstreams or system configuration parameters across power cycles.
Data Logging
Recording sensor data or event logs in commercial-grade industrial and consumer electronics.

Getting Started

Interfacing is achieved via a standard 4-wire SPI bus (SCK, SDI, SDO, CE#). Engineers can verify hardware connections using a standard logic analyzer and utilize Microchip's provided C-language libraries for basic sector erase and byte program operations. Ensure proper decoupling with a 0.1uF capacitor near the VDD pin.
