GD25Q16ESIG

GigaDevice Semicon Beijing · NOR FLASH · SOP-8-208mil

GD25Q16ESIG from GigaDevice Semicon Beijing, in a SOP-8-208mil. 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 Active-low chip select input. Must be driven high when the device is not selected; must not be left floating after power-on. Falling edge starts a command; rising edge ends it and returns SO to Hi-Z.
2 SO/IO1 bidirectional Serial data output in standard SPI mode. Becomes bidirectional data line IO1 in Dual SPI and Quad SPI modes. Shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK in standard mode.
3 WP#/IO2 bidirectional Active-low write-protect input in standard/Dual SPI (protects the Status Register BP4-BP0 and SRP0/SRP1 bits when driven low). Becomes bidirectional data line IO2 in Quad SPI mode when Status Register QE bit = 1.
4 VSS power_in Device ground reference (0 V).
5 SI/IO0 bidirectional Serial data input in standard SPI mode (data latched on the rising edge of SCLK). Becomes bidirectional data line IO0 in Dual and Quad SPI modes.
6 SCLK input Serial clock input. Supports SPI modes 0 and 3 with fast-read clock up to 133 MHz at 30 pF load. Input data latched on the rising edge; output data shifts on the falling edge.
7 HOLD#/IO3 bidirectional Active-low HOLD input in standard/Dual SPI: pauses serial communication without deselecting the device (SO goes Hi-Z, SI/SCLK ignored). Becomes bidirectional data line IO3 in Quad SPI mode when QE = 1.
8 VCC power_in Single-supply core/IO power input. Operating range 2.7-3.6 V. Device auto-resets if VCC falls below the write-inhibit threshold VWI.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
gd25q16esig.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
gd25q16esig-etched.step 2.4 MB You want the part with GD25Q16ESIG already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 587 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.
