W25Q16JV

Winbond · SPI NOR Flash · SOIC-8 (208 mil)

The W25Q16JV is a 16 Mbit (2 MB) serial NOR flash memory. It supports Standard, Dual, and Quad SPI at clock rates up to 133 MHz, organizing its array into 256-byte pages, 4 KB sectors, and 32/64 KB blocks. It is a common choice for MCU firmware storage, code shadowing, and data logging.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 /CS input Chip Select input (active low). When /CS is high the device is deselected and DO/IOx are high-impedance; when brought low the device is selected and instructions can be issued. A pull-up resistor on /CS is recommended to hold it high during power-up.
2 DO/IO1 bidirectional Serial Data Output (Standard SPI); becomes bidirectional IO1 in Dual/Quad SPI mode. Data is shifted out on the falling edge of CLK.
3 IO2 bidirectional Data Input/Output 2, used only for Quad SPI instructions. In Standard/Dual SPI mode this pin may be used as /WP (write protect) depending on QE status register bit.
4 GND power_in Ground reference (0V) for the device.
5 DI/IO0 bidirectional Serial Data Input (Standard SPI); becomes bidirectional IO0 in Dual/Quad SPI mode. Instructions, addresses and data are shifted in on the rising edge of CLK.
6 CLK input SPI Serial Clock Input. Provides the timing reference for all serial input/output operations. Supports up to 133MHz.
7 IO3 bidirectional Data Input/Output 3, used only for Quad SPI instructions. In Standard/Dual SPI mode this pin may be used as /HOLD or /RESET depending on the QE status register bit.
8 VCC power_in Power supply, 2.7V to 3.6V. Recommended decoupling: 100nF ceramic close to the pin.
