Product details
Overview
S25FL116K0XNFA013 from Cypress Semiconductor is a 16-Mbit (2 Mbyte), 3.0 V serial NOR flash memory with SPI Multi-I/O interface, supporting Normal, Fast, Dual, and Quad Read modes up to 108 MHz, uniform 4-kB sector and 64-kB block erase, and Execute-In-Place (XIP) capability for embedded code storage in industrial control and IoT edge devices.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL116K0XNFA013 datasheet, S25FL116K0XNFA013 pinout, S25FL116K0XNFA013 application, or S25FL116K0XNFA013 equivalent, key selection criteria include quad-read throughput (54 MB/s), 100K program-erase endurance, 20-year data retention, SOIC-8 (150 mil) package compatibility, and migration path to S25FL064L for new designs.
Technical Context
This SPI flash implements JEDEC-standard Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP) and supports SPI clock modes 0 and 3. It uses 90 nm floating gate technology and operates across −40 °C to +85 °C (Industrial) and −40 °C to +105 °C (Industrial Plus) temperature ranges with single 2.7–3.6 V supply.
The device integrates three 256-byte OTP-protected security registers, hardware write protection (WP#), hold functionality (HOLD#), and programmable latency for optimized read timing. Its command set enables page programming (up to 256 bytes), suspend/resume during program/erase, and top/bottom block protection down to 4 kB granularity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 16 Mbit (2 Mbyte) - fixed address space for boot code or firmware image storage |
| Interface | SPI Multi-I/O (SIO/DIO/QIO) - reduces pin count vs parallel NOR while enabling XIP |
| Max Read Speed | 54 MB/s (Quad Read @ 108 MHz) - matches x8/x16 parallel NOR bandwidth with 4–6 signal lines |
| Erase Granularity | 4 kB sectors / 64 kB blocks - enables fine-grained firmware updates without full chip erase |
| Endurance & Retention | 100K program-erase cycles / 20-year data retention - suitable for field-upgradable embedded systems |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with standard 3.3 V logic rails and industrial power domains |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +105 °C - validated for extended-temperature industrial and automotive Grade 2 applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead SOIC (150 mil), body size 5.3 mm × 5.3 mm, lead pitch 1.27 mm (SOA008).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS# | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable for SPI command sequence; must be deasserted between commands |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Drives all data transfers; supports up to 108 MHz with mode 0/3 polarity-phase configuration |
| IO0 (SI) | Serial Data Input / I/O | Primary input for instructions, addresses, and program data; bidirectional in DIO/QIO modes |
| IO1 (SO) | Serial Data Output / I/O | Primary output for read data; bidirectional in DIO/QIO modes; supports dual/quad read burst |
| IO2 (WP#) | Write Protect Input | Hardware-level protection for status register and memory array; active-low, tied high for normal operation |
| IO3 (HOLD#) | Hold Input | Suspends ongoing read/write without CS# deassertion; enables multi-command interleaving |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply for core and I/O; no separate VIO required |
| VSS | Ground | Common reference for all signals; requires low-inductance connection to minimize noise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Read (QIO) Mode | Enables 54 MB/s continuous throughput - eliminates bottleneck for XIP execution in resource-constrained MCUs |
| Program/Erase Suspend | Allows background erase to pause for high-priority read access - critical for real-time firmware update scenarios |
| Three 256-byte OTP Security Registers | Stores immutable keys or calibration data - prevents tampering while enabling secure boot chain integration |
| Variable Read Latency | Configurable dummy cycles per command - balances initial access time vs maximum clock rate for system timing closure |
| Top/Bottom Block Protection | Hardware-enforced write lock on configurable 4 kB–full-memory regions - protects bootloader without software overhead |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Firmware Storage | IoT Edge Sensor Node Code Execution |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Storing and executing ladder logic firmware in programmable logic controllers with periodic field updates via CAN or Ethernet. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Non-volatile code storage with Execute-In-Place (XIP) support, enabling direct MCU instruction fetch without RAM copy.

Use Value: Enables safe over-the-air updates with atomic sector swap and rollback, leveraging 4 kB erase granularity to minimize write latency. |
| Medical Diagnostic Device Bootloader | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) Configuration |
Use Scenario: Securing boot firmware in Class II medical imaging equipment requiring AEC-Q100 Grade 2 compliance and traceable firmware versions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Trusted boot source with OTP-secured cryptographic keys and SFDP-defined parameter tables for runtime validation. Use Value: Meets IEC 62304 safety requirements by isolating bootloader integrity checks from application code updates. | Use Scenario: Storing vehicle-specific configuration profiles (e.g., lighting sequences, window auto-up/down thresholds) in BCMs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Parameter storage with hardware write protection on factory-set values and software-controlled user customization zones. Use Value: Prevents accidental corruption of safety-critical settings while allowing dealership-level personalization via diagnostic tools. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial NOR flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL064L0XNFA013 | 64 Mbit density, 133 MHz Quad Read, 1.8 V / 3.0 V dual supply, enhanced SFDP v1.6, 200K endurance | Supports larger firmware images and higher-speed XIP in next-gen designs; not pin-compatible with SOIC-8 (uses WSON-8) | Select for new designs requiring higher density, longer lifecycle, or lower voltage operation; requires PCB redesign. |
| MX25L1606EM1I-12G | 16 Mbit, SOIC-8 pinout, 86 MHz Quad Read, 100K endurance, no HOLD#/WP# dual-function I/O, simpler SFDP | Limited security features (no OTP registers), no suspend/resume, lower max clock rate - suited for cost-sensitive consumer applications | Choose when migration path isn't required and advanced protection/timing features are unnecessary. |
Compared with S25FL116K0XNFA013, S25FL064L offers higher density and speed but requires package change, while MX25L1606EM1I provides drop-in SOIC-8 compatibility at reduced feature depth - making the former ideal for forward-looking designs and the latter for legacy-cost optimization.

FAQ
Is S25FL116K0XNFA013 still recommended for new designs?
No. Cypress explicitly states this part is "Not Recommended for New Design" and designates S25FL064L as the factory-recommended migration path. While fully functional and supported for existing production, new projects should adopt the S25FL-L family for long-term supply assurance, enhanced specs, and ongoing technical support.
What package does S25FL116K0XNFA013 use, and is it pin-compatible with other S25FL1-K variants?
S25FL116K0XNFA013 uses an 8-lead SOIC (150 mil) package (SOA008). It shares identical pinout and footprint with other S25FL1-K devices in the same SOIC-8 variant, enabling density upgrades within the same PCB layout - though firmware and timing parameters must be verified per density.
Does this device support hardware write protection independent of software commands?
Yes. The WP# (IO2) pin provides hardware-level write protection for the status register and memory array when driven low. This complements software-based protection (e.g., Status Register Write Disable) and remains active even if firmware is compromised, ensuring critical bootloader sectors remain immutable.
Can S25FL116K0XNFA013 operate in Quad I/O mode while using WP# and HOLD# functions?
No. When Quad I/O (QIO) mode is enabled, IO2 (WP#) and IO3 (HOLD#) are repurposed as additional data lines (IO2/IO3), disabling their dedicated hardware protection and hold functions. These pins revert to WP#/HOLD# only in Single or Dual I/O modes - a hardware trade-off confirmed in the datasheet's signal description section.
