PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The 25 series Serial Flash family features a four-wire, SPI compatible interface that allows for a low pin-count pack age which occupies less board space and ultimately lowers total system costs. The SST25VF040B devices are enhanced with improved operating frequency and even lower power consumption.

FEATURES:

• Single Voltage Read and Write Operations
– 2.7-3.6V
• Serial Interface Architecture
– SPI Compatible: Mode 0 and Mode 3
• High Speed Clock Frequency
– Up to 50/80 MHz
• Superior Reliability
– Endurance: 100,000 Cycles (typical)
– Greater than 100 years Data Retention
• Low Power Consumption:
– Active Read Current: 10 mA (typical)
– Standby Current: 5 µA (typical)
• Flexible Erase Capability
– Uniform 4 KByte sectors
– Uniform 32 KByte overlay blocks
– Uniform 64 KByte overlay blocks
• Fast Erase and Byte-Program:
– Chip-Erase Time: 35 ms (typical)
– Sector-/Block-Erase Time: 18 ms (typical)
– Byte-Program Time: 7 µs (typical)
• Auto Address Increment (AAI) Programming
– Decrease total chip programming time over
Byte-Program operations
• End-of-Write Detection
– Software polling the BUSY bit in Status Register
– Busy Status readout on SO pin in AAI Mode
• Hold Pin (HOLD#)
– Suspends a serial sequence to the memory
without deselecting the device
