Product details
Overview
S25FL116K0XMFN011 from Cypress Semiconductor (now Infineon) is a 16 Mbit Serial NOR Flash memory with Quad SPI interface, 108 MHz SDR clock rate, and 2.7–3.6 V single-supply operation, deployed in automotive instrument clusters for firmware storage and boot code execution.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL116K0XMFN011 datasheet, S25FL116K0XMFN011 pinout, S25FL116K0XMFN011 application, or S25FL116K0XMFN011 equivalent, key selection criteria include automotive-grade temperature range (–40°C to +125°C), Quad SPI bandwidth, MSL3 reflow compatibility, and Cypress/Infineon FL1-K series qualification status.
Technical Context
This device implements a standard Serial Peripheral Interface with Quad I/O mode enabled, supporting Read, Program, and Erase operations via command-set-compatible protocol. It uses uniform 4-KB sectors and 64-KB blocks, with hardware write protection via WP# pin and software-controlled status register locking.
The FL1-K family integrates an internal charge pump for erase/program voltage generation, eliminating need for external high-voltage supply. It supports both volatile and non-volatile status register configuration, including quad enable bit (QE) and block protection bits (BP0–BP2).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Density | 16 Mbit (2 MB) - sufficient for boot code, firmware images, and parameter tables in automotive ECUs |
| Interface | Quad SPI - enables 4x data throughput vs standard SPI, critical for fast boot timing |
| Max Clock Frequency | 108 MHz SDR - defines maximum sustained read bandwidth of ~54 MBps in Quad mode |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with automotive 3.3 V rail with ±10% tolerance |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1, suitable for under-hood applications |
| Package | 8-pin SOIC (300 mil) - industry-standard footprint with proven thermal and mechanical reliability |
| Moisture Sensitivity | MSL3 (260°C peak reflow) - requires bake prior to assembly if exposed >168 hours at ambient |
Pinout & Package
8-pin SOIC (300 mil) package with standard pinout for Serial NOR Flash devices. Compatible with JEDEC MS-012AC footprint and automated placement equipment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: /CS | Chip Select | Active-low enable for SPI command decoding; must be deasserted between transactions |
| 2: DO/QO | Data Output / Quad Output | Serial data output in standard/quad read modes; bidirectional in dual/quad I/O commands |
| 3: /WP | Write Protect | Hardware lock for top/bottom sectors when low; overrides software protection bits |
| 4: GND | Ground | Reference return path for all I/O and core logic; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
| 5: SI/QI | Serial Input / Quad Input | Command/address/data input in standard/quad modes; used for program/erase data loading |
| 6: SCLK | Serial Clock | Master-generated clock synchronizing all I/O transfers; max 108 MHz in SDR mode |
| 7: /HOLD | Hold Control | Pauses ongoing read without deselecting chip; retains address pointer during suspend |
| 8: VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply powering core, I/O, and charge pump circuits |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Serial NOR Flash applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL116K0XMFI011 | Same die, but in industrial temp range (–40°C to +85°C); no AEC-Q100 qualification | Not approved for automotive under-hood or safety-critical modules | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where extended temperature is not required |
| MX25L1606EM2I-12G | 16 Mbit, 133 MHz Quad SPI, but lacks AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification and has different status register layout | Requires firmware-level adaptation for write protection and QE bit handling | Use only after full validation of command-set compatibility and thermal cycling performance |
Compared with S25FL116K0XMFN011, the S25FL116K0XMFI011 omits automotive qualification while retaining identical electrical behavior, whereas MX25L1606EM2I-12G offers higher clock speed but introduces register-level incompatibility and unverified automotive reliability.

FAQ
Is S25FL116K0XMFN011 pin-compatible with earlier S25FL128S or S25FL064L devices?
No. While all are 8-pin SOIC Serial NOR Flash, S25FL116K0XMFN011 uses a distinct command set and status register mapping. Pinout matches standard SOIC-8 SPI Flash, but firmware must be updated to support FL1-K-specific QE bit location and sector protection scheme.
Does this part support DDR Quad SPI mode?
No. The datasheet specifies "108 / –" for Interface Frequency (SDR / DDR), confirming DDR mode is not implemented. Only SDR Quad SPI is supported, with maximum 108 MHz clock and corresponding 432 Mbps theoretical throughput.
What is the endurance and data retention specification?
The device guarantees 100,000 program/erase cycles per sector and 20-year data retention at +85°C, validated per JEDEC JESD22-A117. Retention drops to 10 years at +125°C, consistent with AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements.
Can /HOLD and /WP pins be left unconnected in PCB layout?
No. Both pins must be actively driven: /HOLD should be tied HIGH (via 10 kΩ pull-up) if unused to prevent unintended suspend; /WP must be pulled HIGH unless hardware write protection is required, as floating may cause erratic protection behavior during power-up.
