W25X40CLSNIG

Winbond Elec · NOR FLASH · SOIC-8-150mil

W25X40CLSNIG from Winbond Elec, in a SOIC-8-150mil. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 /CS input SPI Chip Select input, active low. When /CS is high the device is deselected and DO / IO0 / IO1 are at high impedance; when driven low the device is selected and instructions can be issued. Must track VCC at power-up; a pull-up resistor to VCC is recommended.
2 DO (IO1) bidirectional Data output in Standard SPI mode (unidirectional, driven on falling edge of CLK). In Dual SPI mode this pin becomes bidirectional IO1 for the Fast Read Dual Output (3Bh) and Fast Read Dual I/O (BBh) instructions.
3 /WP input Write Protect input, active low. Used in conjunction with the Status Register SRP, TB and BP2/BP1/BP0 bits to hardware-protect a portion or the entire memory array from Status Register writes.
4 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
5 DI (IO0) bidirectional Data input in Standard SPI mode (unidirectional, latched on rising edge of CLK) used to send instructions, addresses and data. In Dual SPI mode this pin becomes bidirectional IO0.
6 CLK input SPI Serial Clock input; provides the timing reference for all serial input and output operations. Supports SPI Modes 0 and 3 up to 104MHz.
7 /HOLD input Hold input, active low. When /HOLD is asserted low while /CS is low the DO pin goes to high impedance and signals on DI and CLK are ignored, pausing the device without losing state; useful when the SPI bus is shared with other devices.
8 VCC power_in Power supply input. Single-supply operation from 2.3V to 3.6V; typical active current ~1mA and power-down current <1uA.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
w25x40clsnig.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
w25x40clsnig-etched.step 2.3 MB You want the part with W25X40CLSNIG already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 576 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
