Product details
Overview
S25FL116K0XNFV013 from Cypress Semiconductor is a 16-Mbit (2 Mbyte), 3.0 V serial NOR flash memory with SPI Multi-I/O interface, supporting Quad Read at 108 MHz and delivering up to 54 MB/s continuous data transfer. It features uniform 4-kB sector and 64-kB block erase, 100K program-erase cycles, 20-year data retention, and security registers with OTP protection. Used in embedded boot code storage and firmware update storage for industrial microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL116K0XNFV013 datasheet, S25FL116K0XNFV013 pinout, S25FL116K0XNFV013 application, or S25FL116K0XNFV013 equivalent, key selection considerations include Quad I/O read performance, hardware write protection via WP#/HOLD#, SOIC-8 (208 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. Its command set enables Execute-In-Place (XIP) via Continuous and Wrapped Read modes, reducing instruction fetch latency in microcontroller boot sequences.
The device integrates three 256-byte one-time-programmable (OTP) security registers, top/bottom block protection with 4-kB granularity, and dual-mode configuration (volatile/non-volatile). It operates across −40 °C to +105 °C with single 2.7–3.6 V supply and uses 90 nm floating gate technology.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 16 Mbit (2 Mbyte) - sufficient for MCU boot code and firmware images in space-constrained embedded systems |
| Interface | SPI Multi-I/O (SIO/DIO/QIO) - reduces pin count vs parallel NOR while maintaining XIP-capable throughput |
| Max Read Speed | 54 MB/s (Quad Read @ 108 MHz) - matches x16 parallel NOR bandwidth with only 6 signals |
| 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 - meets industrial lifecycle requirements |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with standard 3.3 V logic rails and brown-out tolerant operation |
| Temperature Range | −40 °C to +105 °C (Industrial Plus) - validated for extended thermal environments in motor control and power systems |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead SOIC (208 mil), compliant with JEDEC MS-012AA, body size 5.33 mm × 5.33 mm × 1.78 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS# | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable for SPI command sequence; must be held low during entire transaction |
| SCK | Serial Clock Input | Provides timing reference for all SPI transfers; supports up to 108 MHz in Quad mode |
| IO0 (SI) | Serial Data Input / I/O | Primary data line for command/address input and SIO reads; bidirectional in DIO/QIO modes |
| IO1 (SO) | Serial Data Output / I/O | Primary output during SIO reads; used as second data lane in Dual/Quad Read operations |
| IO2 (WP#) | Write Protect Input | Hardware lock for status register and memory array; active-low, disables programming/erasing when asserted |
| IO3 (HOLD#) | Command Hold Input | Pauses ongoing command execution (e.g., Read or Erase) without resetting internal state |
| 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 in high-speed reads |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Read Mode | Enables 54 MB/s sustained throughput - eliminates bottleneck in XIP-based MCU boot and real-time firmware execution |
| Program/Erase Suspend | Allows background erase to pause/resume on demand - critical for interrupt-driven systems requiring deterministic latency |
| Three 256-byte OTP Security Registers | Stores immutable keys, calibration data, or device identity - prevents cloning and enables secure boot chain binding |
| Wrapped Read Mode | Optimizes cache-line refill after miss - reduces average instruction fetch time by eliminating repeated address overhead |
| JEDEC SFDP Compliance | Self-describing parameter table accessible via standard command - enables automatic driver configuration without hard-coded timing values |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL064L0XNFB0A0 | 64 Mbit density, 133 MHz Quad Read, 2.7–3.6 V, supports octal DTR mode; superseding migration path per Cypress | Higher capacity and speed; requires updated PCB layout for same SOIC-8 footprint but different pinout (no HOLD#/WP# dual-function) | Select for new designs needing scalability beyond 16 Mbit or future-proofing against obsolescence |
| MX25L1606EM2I-12G | 16 Mbit, 85 MHz Quad Read, 2.7–3.6 V, standard SPI command set; no SFDP or Program Suspend | Limited security features (no OTP registers); lacks suspend/resume for erase - unsuitable for real-time interrupt contexts | Acceptable for cost-sensitive, non-safety-critical consumer applications where firmware update concurrency is not required |
Compared with S25FL116K0XNFV013, S25FL064L offers higher density and speed with modern feature support but requires layout revision, while MX25L1606EM2I provides pin-compatible drop-in replacement at lower performance and security-making it viable only for legacy maintenance, not new design.

FAQ
Is S25FL116K0XNFV013 still recommended for new designs?
No. Cypress explicitly states this part is "Not Recommended for New Design" and recommends migrating to S25FL064L. It remains available for legacy production and repair, with Aetrix Electronics providing continuity support including last-time-buy planning and cross-reference validation for functional equivalents.
What does the 'XNFV013' suffix indicate in S25FL116K0XNFV013?
The suffix denotes the specific variant: 'X' = standard grade, 'N' = 8-lead SOIC (208 mil), 'F' = Industrial Plus temperature range (−40 °C to +105 °C), 'V' = lead-free/RoHS-compliant, '013' = date code (2013). This confirms the device is packaged in SOIC-208 with extended thermal qualification and Pb-free finish.
Does S25FL116K0XNFV013 support hardware write protection independent of software commands?
Yes. The WP# (IO2) pin provides hardware-level write protection: when driven low, it locks the status register and prevents all program/erase operations regardless of software command issuance. This complements software-based protection modes and ensures fail-safe memory lockdown during power transients or firmware faults.
Can S25FL116K0XNFV013 be used in Quad I/O mode while retaining HOLD# functionality?
No. When Quad I/O mode is enabled (via Status Register bit 6), the WP# and HOLD# pins are repurposed as IO2 and IO3 for data transfer, disabling their hardware protection and suspend functions. To retain HOLD#, operation must be limited to Single or Dual I/O modes - a trade-off between bandwidth and command flexibility.
