Overview
S25FL164K0XMFB011 from Cypress Semiconductor is a 64-Mbit (8 Mbyte), 3.0 V serial NOR flash memory with SPI Multi-I/O interface, supporting Quad Read at up to 108 MHz and 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 hardware/software write protection. Used for XIP code execution and firmware storage in space-constrained industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL164K0XMFB011 datasheet, S25FL164K0XMFB011 pinout, S25FL164K0XMFB011 application, or S25FL164K0XMFB011 equivalent, key selection criteria include Quad I/O timing compliance, security register OTP configuration, sector protection granularity, and migration path to S25FL064L for new designs.
Technical Context
This device implements JEDEC-standard SPI Multi-I/O (MIO) with configurable clock polarity/phase (modes 0 and 3), supporting Single, Dual, and Quad I/O protocols using shared IO0–IO3 pins. Command execution includes suspend/resume for both program and erase operations, enabling real-time host interrupt handling without data corruption.
The memory array uses 90 nm floating gate technology with a 2.7–3.6 V single supply. It integrates three 256-byte one-time-programmable (OTP) security registers, 8-byte unique ID, and pointer-based block protection - features confirmed for S25FL164K (not S25FL116K/S25FL132K), with AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification available.

FAQ
Is S25FL164K0XMFB011 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 S25FL064L to ensure long-term supply, enhanced specs, and ongoing technical support.
What does the '0XMFB011' suffix indicate in the part number?
The suffix encodes package and temperature grade: '0X' = standard lead finish, 'MF' = 24-ball BGA (6 mm × 8 mm), 'B' = Industrial Plus temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), '011' = date code (2011 week 01). This matches FAB024/FAC024 package designation and +105°C qualification confirmed in the datasheet.
Can S25FL164K0XMFB011 operate in Quad I/O mode with hardware write protection enabled?
No. In Quad I/O mode, IO2 and IO3 are repurposed as Q2 and Q3 data lines, disabling WP# and HOLD# functions. Hardware write protection is only available in Single or Dual I/O modes. Software protection (via Status Register bits) remains active in all modes.
Does this device support JEDEC-standard Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP)?
Yes. SFDP is implemented in Security Register 0 per JEDEC JESD216B, providing standardized, read-only parameter tables for clock frequency, latency, erase sizes, and command sets - enabling automatic driver initialization without hardcoded timing values.
