Product details
Overview
S25FL116K0XNFB010 from Cypress Semiconductor is a 16-Mbit (2 Mbyte), 3.0 V serial NOR flash memory with SPI Multi-I/O interface, supporting Normal Read (50 MHz), Fast/Dual/Quad Read (108 MHz), uniform 4-kB sector and 64-kB block erase, and Execute-In-Place (XIP) operation - deployed in embedded boot code storage for industrial microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL116K0XNFB010 datasheet, S25FL116K0XNFB010 pinout, S25FL116K0XNFB010 application, or S25FL116K0XNFB010 equivalent, key selection criteria include quad I/O read bandwidth (54 MB/s), 100K program-erase endurance, 20-year data retention, hardware/software write protection, and SOIC-8 (208 mil) package compatibility with legacy FL-K designs.
Technical Context
This SPI flash implements JEDEC-standard Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP) for automatic configuration and supports four I/O modes: Single (SIO), Dual (DIO), Quad (QIO), and continuous/wrapped read for efficient XIP. The device uses 90 nm floating gate technology and operates across −40 °C to +105 °C (Industrial Plus).
Command execution includes Page Program (256-byte buffer), Program Suspend/Resume, Erase Suspend/Resume, and three 256-byte OTP-protected security registers. Protection mechanisms combine software commands, hardware WP#/HOLD# pins, and non-volatile status register bits with lock-down-until-power-cycle behavior.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 16 Mbit (2 Mbyte) - sufficient for MCU boot code and firmware image storage in space-constrained embedded systems |
| Interface | SPI Multi-I/O (SIO/DIO/QIO) - reduces pin count vs parallel NOR while enabling 54 MB/s quad read throughput |
| Max Clock Rate | 108 MHz - enables high-speed instruction fetch for XIP without external RAM buffering |
| Erase Granularity | Uniform 4 kB sectors and 64 kB blocks - supports fine-grained firmware updates and robust field patching |
| Endurance & Retention | 100K program-erase cycles / 20-year data retention - validated for long-life industrial deployments |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with standard 3.3 V logic rails and brown-out tolerant power domains |
| Temperature Range | −40 °C to +105 °C (Industrial Plus) - qualified for extended thermal environments in motor control and power electronics |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead SOIC (208 mil), footprint-compatible with prior S25FL-K family devices and industry-standard SOIC-8 layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS# | Chip Select | Active-low enable for command initiation; must be held low during full command sequence including address/data transfer |
| SCK | Serial Clock | Input clock synchronizing all SPI transfers; supports modes 0 and 3 (CPOL/CPHA) |
| IO0 (SI) | Serial Input / Data Line 0 | Primary input for instructions, addresses, and program data in SIO mode; bidirectional in DIO/QIO |
| IO1 (SO) | Serial Output / Data Line 1 | Primary output for read data in SIO mode; bidirectional in DIO/QIO; disabled when QIO enabled |
| WP# | Write Protect | Hardware lock for status register and memory array; active-low; disabled in QIO mode |
| HOLD# | Hold | Pauses ongoing command at any clock cycle; active-low; disabled in QIO mode |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply powering core and I/O; no separate VIO required |
| VSS | Ground | Common reference for all signals; requires low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Read (QIO) Mode | Enables 54 MB/s continuous read - matches x16 parallel NOR performance using only 6 pins (CS#, SCK, IO0–IO3) |
| Execute-In-Place (XIP) | Supports direct CPU instruction fetch via wrapped/continuous read - eliminates boot ROM copy overhead |
| Program/Erase Suspend | Allows background erase or program to pause/resume - critical for real-time firmware update without system stall |
| Three 256-byte OTP Security Registers | Provides immutable storage for keys, calibration data, or device identity - protected by hardware lock-down until power cycle |
| JEDEC SFDP Compliance | Enables automatic driver initialization - removes hard-coded timing/config dependencies in bootloader firmware |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL064L0XNFB010 | 64-Mbit density, 133 MHz max clock, 1.8 V / 3.0 V dual supply, enhanced SFDP v1.6, no HOLD#/WP# in QIO mode | Higher density and speed; supports newer controllers requiring v1.6 SFDP; not pin-compatible with SOIC-208 | Select for new designs needing >16 Mbit capacity or 1.8 V I/O compatibility; requires PCB redesign due to WSON-8 package |
| MX25L1606E/MX25L1633F | 16-Mbit, 104 MHz max clock, single 2.7–3.6 V supply, standard SFDP v1.5, supports Dual/Quad but no Program Suspend | Limited suspend/resume capability; lower endurance (10K cycles); widely available but lacks Industrial Plus temp grade | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer applications where 100K endurance and −40°C to +105°C operation are not required |
Compared with S25FL064L and MX25L1606E, the S25FL116K0XNFB010 offers verified Industrial Plus temperature support and full suspend/resume functionality - making it suitable for legacy design refreshes where SOIC-208 footprint and 100K endurance are mandatory, despite its NRND status.

FAQ
Is S25FL116K0XNFB010 recommended for new designs?
No - Cypress explicitly states this part is "Not Recommended for New Design" and recommends migration to the S25FL064L family. It remains viable for legacy design continuity, repair, and obsolescence mitigation where SOIC-208 footprint and Industrial Plus temperature range are required. Aetrix maintains active inventory and traceable sourcing for ongoing production support.
What package does S25FL116K0XNFB010 use?
S25FL116K0XNFB010 uses an 8-lead SOIC package with 208 mil body width (SOC008), pin-compatible with earlier S25FL-K devices. This package supports standard reflow profiles and manual soldering, and is distinct from the WSON-8 or BGA variants offered in the same family.
Does this device support Quad I/O mode with hardware write protection?
No - when Quad I/O (QIO) mode is enabled, the WP# and HOLD# pins are disabled per the datasheet. Hardware write protection is only available in Single I/O and Dual I/O modes. For QIO operation, protection relies on software commands and non-volatile status register bits.
What is the maximum continuous read bandwidth in Quad Read mode?
In Quad Read mode at 108 MHz and −40 °C to +105 °C, the device achieves a maximum continuous data transfer rate of 54 MB/s. This is measured with 4-bit data per clock cycle over IO0–IO3, and assumes optimal command sequencing and no inter-command delays.
