Product details
Overview
S25FL256LAGBHI030 from Infineon is a 256-Mbit serial NOR flash memory with Quad SPI interface, 133 MHz clock frequency, and 3.0 V supply voltage. It supports XIP (execute-in-place), dual/quad I/O protocols, and offers 100K program/erase cycles with 20-year data retention. Used in industrial PLC firmware storage and boot code execution for ARM Cortex-M7 microcontrollers.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL256LAGBHI030 datasheet, S25FL256LAGBHI030 pinout, S25FL256LAGBHI030 application, or S25FL256LAGBHI030 equivalent, key selection criteria include Quad SPI timing compliance, sector protection granularity, erase suspend/resume capability, and JEDEC JESD216 Rev C SFDP support for automatic configuration.
Technical Context
This device implements a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) with extended quad I/O mode compliant with JEDEC JESD216. It uses a 64-Mbit × 4 architecture organized into 512 uniform 64-KB sectors and supports both volatile and non-volatile status register configuration.
Command set includes fast read (0x0B), quad input/output fast read (0x6B/0xEB), program resume/suspend (0xD0/0xB0), and deep power-down (0xB9). Erase operations are supported at sector (64 KB), block (256 KB), and chip level with typical times of 0.5 s, 1.5 s, and 200 s respectively.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial NOR flash applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL256SAGMFI000 | Same density and package but with 1.8 V core supply and dual-power rail (1.8/3.3 V I/O) | Required for mixed-voltage SoC designs with 1.8 V core and 3.3 V peripherals | Select when interfacing with low-power application processors needing reduced active current |
| MX25L25645GMI-13G | 256 Mbit, 133 MHz max, but lacks erase suspend/resume and SFDP v1.7 support | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer applications where firmware update reliability is secondary | Choose only if deep power-down and sector-level suspend are not required in the BOM |
Compared with S25FL256SAGMFI000, the S25FL256LAGBHI030 avoids dual-rail complexity and simplifies power design; versus MX25L25645GMI-13G, it delivers higher field-update robustness through suspend/resume and standardized configuration.

FAQ
Is S25FL256LAGBHI030 compatible with legacy SPI controllers?
Yes - it supports standard SPI modes 0 and 3 at up to 80 MHz in single I/O mode. Command opcodes for read, write, and erase are fully backward-compatible with earlier Spansion/Infineon serial flash devices, allowing drop-in replacement in existing designs using basic SPI peripherals.
Does this part support execute-in-place (XIP) operation?
Yes - the device supports true XIP from reset, with configurable latency and dummy cycle settings. The 133 MHz Quad SPI interface enables zero-wait-state execution for ARM Cortex-M and RISC-V cores when mapped to linear memory space via appropriate MMU or cache configuration.
What is the minimum erase block size supported?
The smallest erasable unit is a 64 KB sector. There is no sub-sector (4 KB) erase capability. Each of the 512 uniform sectors can be individually locked/unlocked via the volatile and non-volatile status registers, enabling fine-grained firmware partitioning.
How is hardware write protection implemented?
Hardware write protection is controlled by the WP# pin and status register bits SRWD, TB, and BP[2:0]. When WP# is asserted low, all program and erase commands are blocked unless corresponding sector lock bits are cleared. This provides dual-layer protection against accidental writes during power transitions or software faults.
