Product details
Overview
S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 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 108 MHz (54 MB/s), uniform 4-kB sector and 64-kB block erase, and 100K program-erase cycles - deployed in industrial embedded systems for firmware storage and XIP code execution.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 datasheet, S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 pinout, S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 application, or S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 equivalent, key selection criteria include quad-speed read performance, OTP security register support, AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification, 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), enabling Single/Dual/Quad I/O protocols using only four to six pins (CS#, SCK, IO0–IO3). It supports SFDP v1.5 (JESD216B) for automatic parameter discovery and includes volatile/non-volatile configuration registers.
The memory array uses 90 nm floating gate technology with execute-in-place (XIP) optimization via continuous and wrapped read modes. Security features include three 256-byte OTP security registers, 8-byte unique ID, pointer-based block protection, and hardware/software write protection with lock-down until power cycle.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 64 Mbit (8 Mbyte) - sufficient for full bootloader + application firmware in space-constrained MCU systems |
| Read Throughput | 54 MB/s (Quad Read @ 108 MHz) - matches parallel NOR performance with 75% fewer signals |
| Erase Granularity | Uniform 4 kB sectors and 64 kB blocks - enables fine-grained firmware updates without full chip erase |
| Endurance & Retention | 100K program-erase cycles / 20-year data retention - validated for 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) - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 2 for under-hood automotive use |
| Security Features | Three 256-byte OTP registers + 8-byte unique ID + pointer-based protection - enables secure boot and device authentication |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead SOIC (208 mil), standardized footprint SOC008 per datasheet Rev. *H, Page 2.
| 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 | Edge-triggered clock up to 108 MHz; phase/polarity configurable for SPI modes 0/3 |
| IO0 (SI) | Serial Data Input / I/O | Primary data input in SIO mode; bidirectional in DIO/QIO; used for instruction/address/data |
| IO1 (SO) | Serial Data Output / I/O | Primary data output in SIO mode; bidirectional in DIO/QIO; supports dual/quad read bursts |
| IO2 (WP#) | Write Protect Input / I/O | Hardware-level protection of status register and memory blocks; disabled when QIO enabled |
| IO3 (HOLD#) | Hold Input / I/O | Suspends ongoing command mid-execution (e.g., during erase); resumes on deassertion |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; powers core and I/O circuits; requires local 100 nF decoupling |
| VSS | Ground | Signal and power return; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Read (QIO) Protocol | Enables 54 MB/s sustained throughput using all four I/O lines - eliminates need for wider parallel interfaces |
| Program/Erase Suspend | Allows background erase to pause for high-priority page programming - critical for real-time firmware updates |
| Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters (SFDP) | JEDEC JESD216B-compliant register map auto-detected by host - removes hardcoded timing assumptions |
| OTP Security Registers | Three independent 256-byte one-time-programmable areas - store cryptographic keys, calibration data, or device IDs |
| Wrapped Read Mode | Optimizes cache-line refill after miss: first byte accessed randomly, then full line fetched in single burst - reduces XIP latency |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL064L0XMFIQ00 | Successor family: 64 Mbit, 133 MHz Quad Read (66.5 MB/s), 65 nm process, enhanced SFDP v1.6, no HOLD#/WP# in QIO mode | Supports higher clock rates and deeper power-down states; lacks legacy S25FL1-K's OTP pointer-protection feature | Select for new designs requiring extended longevity, lower active current (14 mA vs. 16 mA Quad Read), and future-proof SFDP compliance |
| MX25L6433FZNI-10G | 64 Mbit, 104 MHz Quad Read (52 MB/s), 1.8 V / 3.3 V dual supply, no AEC-Q100 qualification, 100K endurance | Broader voltage range but unqualified for automotive; lacks unique ID and pointer-based security registers | Consider for cost-sensitive industrial applications where AEC-Q100 and advanced security are not required |

FAQ
Is S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 still in production?
No - Cypress officially retired the S25FL1-K family and designated it "Not Recommended for New Design" as of May 2017. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains active inventory and provides last-time-buy support with full traceability and extended lifecycle coordination for legacy programs.
What package does S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 use?
S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 uses an 8-lead SOIC package with 208-mil body width (standardized as SOC008 per datasheet Rev. *H). It is pin-compatible with other S25FL1-K variants in the same package variant but not with SOIC-16 or WSON variants of the same family.
Does this device support Quad SPI mode with hardware write protection?
No - when Quad I/O (QIO) mode is enabled, the WP# and HOLD# functions are disabled per datasheet Section 2.7–2.8. Hardware write protection remains available only in Single I/O and Dual I/O modes, where IO2 and IO3 operate as dedicated control inputs.
Can S25FL164K0XMFIQ10 be used in automotive applications?
Yes - it is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 2 (−40 °C to +105 °C) and supports automotive boot memory use cases. However, Infineon recommends migrating to S25FL-L family devices for new automotive designs due to enhanced reliability, extended temperature margin, and updated security features.
