Product details
Overview
S25FL256LDPMFB000 from Infineon is a 256-Mbit serial NOR flash memory with quad SPI interface, 133 MHz clock frequency, and 3.0 V supply voltage, used for code storage and execution in embedded microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL256LDPMFB000 datasheet, S25FL256LDPMFB000 pinout, S25FL256LDPMFB000 application, or S25FL256LDPMFB000 equivalent, key selection criteria include read latency, sector protection granularity, write endurance, and industrial temperature operation.
Technical Context
This device implements a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) with Quad I/O (QPI) mode support, enabling up to 532 MB/s effective throughput. It features uniform 4-KB sectors and 64-KB blocks, with hardware write protection via WP# pin and software-controlled sector lockdown.
The memory supports both volatile and non-volatile configuration registers, allowing dynamic adjustment of latency and drive strength. It operates across –40°C to +105°C and meets AEC-Q100 Grade 3 reliability requirements for automotive applications.
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SO/IO1 | Serial Output / Quad I/O Line 1 | Bi-directional data line for QPI read/write; enables dual/quad mode operation |
| SI/IO0 | Serial Input / Quad I/O Line 0 | Input for standard SPI writes; becomes bidirectional in QPI mode |
| WP#/IO2 | Write Protect / Quad I/O Line 2 | Hardware sector lock when pulled low; serves as I/O in QPI mode |
| HOLD#/IO3 | Hold Function / Quad I/O Line 3 | Pauses ongoing transfers without chip deselect; acts as fourth I/O line |
| CLK | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated timing signal; supports up to 133 MHz for high-speed reads |
| CS# | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable; required assertion before any command sequence |
| VCC | Power Supply | 3.3 V nominal supply; decoupling capacitor placement critical for noise immunity |
| VSS | Ground | Reference return path; must be low-impedance connection to minimize switching noise |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL256SDSMFB001 | Same density and package, but uses single/dual SPI only (no QPI mode) | Lacks quad-speed throughput; unsuitable for XIP-critical boot paths | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs speed requirement and QPI is unused |
| MX25L25645GMI-13G | 256 Mbit, 133 MHz, but rated only to +85°C and lacks AEC-Q100 qualification | Not approved for automotive under-hood deployment; limited thermal margin | Acceptable for industrial control where extended temperature is not required |
Compared with S25FL256SDSMFB001 and MX25L25645GMI-13G, the S25FL256LDPMFB000 uniquely delivers QPI bandwidth plus AEC-Q100 Grade 3 certification-enabling automotive-grade boot performance where both speed and reliability are mandatory.

FAQ
Is S25FL256LDPMFB000 pin-compatible with earlier S25FL256L variants?
Yes, it shares identical 8-pin SOIC (208-mil) mechanical footprint and pin assignment with S25FL256L series predecessors. Signal definitions, voltage levels, and timing parameters remain consistent, enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs without layout changes.
Does this device support execute-in-place (XIP) operation?
Yes, the S25FL256LDPMFB000 supports true XIP via its Quad SPI interface with configurable latency. With proper cache configuration and address mapping, MCU cores can directly fetch and execute instructions from flash memory without loading into RAM first.
What is the purpose of the HOLD# pin beyond pausing transfers?
In Quad SPI mode, HOLD# functions as IO3-the fourth bidirectional data line. Its dual role eliminates need for an extra pin while maintaining backward compatibility with standard SPI hold functionality during command sequences.
How does hardware write protection interact with software configuration registers?
WP# pin asserts hardware-level sector lock that overrides all software settings-including volatile and non-volatile configuration registers. Once asserted, no sector can be programmed or erased regardless of register state, providing fail-safe protection against firmware corruption.
