Product details
Overview
AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T from Renesas Electronics is a 4-Mbit serial SPI Flash memory IC optimized for code shadowing and data storage in embedded systems, featuring Dual-I/O support, 104 MHz max clock frequency, 256-byte page erase, and 1.65 V–3.6 V single-supply operation across –40 °C to +85 °C industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T datasheet, AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T pinout, AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T application, or AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated SOIC-8 pin mapping, confirmed dual-output read timing (6 ns tV), OTP security register layout, and real-world use cases in firmware update, boot code storage, and configuration retention.
Technical Context
The AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T implements a standard SPI interface with full compatibility for Modes 0 and 3, using rising-edge input sampling and falling-edge output latching. Its memory architecture supports hierarchical erasure-256-byte pages, uniform 4/32/64-kByte blocks, and full-chip erase-enabling efficient co-location of code modules and runtime data without cross-contamination.
Dual-I/O operation repurposes SI as I/O0 during Dual-Output Read commands, enabling two-bit-per-cycle data transfer on SCK falling edges. Hardware write protection is enforced via active-low WP pin, while HOLD provides non-disruptive pause capability without CS deassertion or state reset.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 4 Mbit (512 KByte) organized as 64 K × 8; sufficient for boot firmware + parameter storage in space-constrained MCU designs. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 104 MHz; enables high-throughput read access with 6 ns clock-to-output delay (tV), critical for fast code execution from flash. |
| Erase Granularity | 256-byte page, 4/32/64-kByte uniform blocks; allows precise overwriting of firmware patches or configuration sectors without disturbing adjacent code. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.65 V–3.6 V; supports direct interfacing with 1.8 V and 3.3 V logic domains without level shifters in industrial applications. |
| Endurance & Retention | 100,000 program/erase cycles and 20-year data retention at –40 °C to +85 °C; validated for long-life field deployments in medical and industrial controllers. |
| Power Consumption | 200 nA ultra-deep power-down current; enables battery-backed retention in always-on IoT edge nodes with multi-year shelf life. |
| OTP Security Register | 128-byte one-time programmable register (64-byte factory UID + 64-byte user space); supports device serialization and secure key binding. |
Pinout & Package
AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T is packaged in an 8-lead SOIC (150-mil) with standard JEDEC footprint and 1.27 mm pitch. Pin functions are electrically validated per Renesas DS-AT25DF041B-040 Rev. H.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable signal; must transition low-to-high to terminate operations; holds device in standby (not deep power-down) when deasserted. |
| SCK | Serial Clock | Master-generated clock; rising edge latches SI/I/O0 input, falling edge clocks SO/I/O1 output; supports up to 104 MHz. |
| SI (I/O0) | Serial Input / Dual-I/O Data 0 | Primary command/address/data input; becomes output (I/O0) during Dual-Output Read to deliver LSB-aligned data alongside SO. |
| SO (I/O1) | Serial Output / Dual-I/O Data 1 | Primary read-data output; remains output (I/O1) during Dual-Output Read to deliver MSB-aligned data alongside SI. |
| WP | Write Protect | Active-low hardware lock; prevents status register and sector protection changes when asserted; internally pulled high. |
| HOLD | Communication Pause | Active-low suspend signal; freezes SPI transaction mid-sequence without resetting internal state or requiring CS toggle. |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 1.65–3.6 V supply; powers all logic and memory array; no auxiliary voltage required for programming or erase. |
| GND | Ground Reference | System ground return path; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into sensitive SPI timing paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-I/O Read Mode | Enables 2-bit-per-clock read throughput by using SI and SO simultaneously as outputs, doubling effective bandwidth vs. standard SPI read. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Winbond W25Q40EW | 4 Mbit density, 133 MHz max clock, but only standard SPI (no Dual-I/O); 1.7–3.6 V supply; 100,000 endurance at –40 °C to +85 °C. | Lacks Dual-I/O read acceleration; suitable where bandwidth >104 MHz is not required and pinout compatibility with SOIC-8 is maintained. | Select W25Q40EW if higher clock speed is needed without Dual-I/O dependency, and if existing layout uses same SOIC-8 footprint. |
| Micron MT25QL04A | 4 Mbit density, supports Quad-I/O (x4) and Dual-I/O (x2); 133 MHz max clock; 1.7–2.0 V or 2.7–3.6 V dual-voltage support; 100,000 endurance. | Offers Quad-I/O for 4× bandwidth boost but requires additional IO pins (IO2/IO3); incompatible pinout (8-pin USON vs. SOIC-8). | Choose MT25QL04A only when migrating to quad-interface designs and board redesign is acceptable for higher throughput. |
Compared with W25Q40EW and MT25QL04A, AT25DF041B-MHNHR-T uniquely balances Dual-I/O bandwidth, SOIC-8 pin compatibility, 1.65 V minimum supply, and integrated OTP security-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained industrial MCU designs requiring firmware integrity and low-voltage operation.
