Product details
Overview
S29GL256S10DHB020 from Infineon is a 256 Mb (32 MB) parallel NOR flash memory IC with 16-bit data bus, fabricated on 65 nm MIRRORBIT™ Eclipse process. It operates from a single 2.7–3.6 V supply, delivers 90 ns random access time and 15 ns page access time, and integrates hardware ECC for single-bit error correction. It is used in boot code storage for industrial microcontrollers requiring fast XIP execution and reliable non-volatile program retention.
For engineers reviewing the S29GL256S10DHB020 datasheet, S29GL256S10DHB020 pinout, S29GL256S10DHB020 application, or S29GL256S10DHB020 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 128 kB uniform sector erase granularity, 512-byte write buffer throughput (1.5 MBps), Versatile I/O support (1.65–3.6 V), OTP array security, and AEC-Q100 Grade 2/3 qualification options.
Technical Context
This device implements an asynchronous parallel interface with word-aligned addressing (A0–A23), supporting both standard and page-mode reads. Its embedded algorithm controller handles autonomous program/erase operations, status monitoring via RY/BY# pin or status register, and suspend/resume capability for interruptible flash updates.
The internal architecture includes separate 1024-byte OTP array with dual lockable regions, CFI-compliant parameter table for host auto-configuration, and advanced sector protection (ASP) with volatile/non-volatile locking modes. ECC logic operates transparently during read cycles without software intervention.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar parallel NOR flash applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S29GL256P10TFI020 | Same density and timing, but 64-ball LAE FBGA (9 mm × 9 mm); no TSOP option | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs where footprint reduction outweighs TSOP rework compatibility | Select when board area is critical and BGA assembly capability exists |
| MX29GL256FHI-90G | Macronix part; 90 ns access, 128 kB sectors, but lacks integrated ECC and OTP array | Requires external ECC logic and software-managed protection; lower security assurance | Select only if cost sensitivity overrides built-in reliability features |
Compared with S29GL256P10TFI020, this TSOP variant offers easier prototyping and rework; versus MX29GL256FHI-90G, it delivers superior data integrity through hardware ECC and secure OTP-critical for safety- or security-sensitive firmware storage.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for S29GL256S10DHB020?
This part is qualified for Industrial Plus grade (–40°C to +105°C), verified per Infineon's internal stress testing and JEDEC JESD22-A108. The datasheet specifies full functionality-including 90 ns access time and 100,000-cycle endurance-across this full range, with derating applied only above +105°C.
Does S29GL256S10DHB020 support hardware reset recovery after power loss?
Yes. The RESET# pin provides asynchronous hardware reset that clears internal state, aborts pending program/erase operations, and restores the device to read mode. This ensures predictable behavior after brown-out or uncontrolled power-down, with no risk of partial-sector corruption.
How does the 512-byte write buffer improve effective programming speed?
It allows up to 512 bytes (256 words) to be loaded into an internal buffer before initiating a single embedded program operation. This reduces overhead from repeated command sequences and bus handshaking, achieving 1.5 MBps effective throughput-over 4× faster than single-word programming at the same bus clock rate.
Can the OTP array be used for cryptographic key storage in secure boot implementations?
Yes. The 1024-byte OTP region has two independently lockable sections, each programmable once and permanently read-only after locking. It is commonly used to store root keys, hash digests, or device-specific identifiers in secure boot flows, with physical write-protection enforced at the silicon level.
