Product details
Overview
SST26VF080AT-80E/MF from Microchip Technology is an 8-Mbit Serial Quad I/O™ (SQI™) Flash memory IC designed for high-speed, low-power embedded code storage and data logging. It operates at 2.3V–3.6V, supports 80 MHz max clock frequency (Extended temperature), features uniform 4-Kbyte sectors and 32/64-Kbyte overlay blocks, and delivers 100,000 program/erase cycles with >100-year data retention. It is used in automotive infotainment boot memory and industrial PLC firmware storage.
For engineers reviewing the SST26VF080AT-80E/MF datasheet, SST26VF080AT-80E/MF pinout, SST26VF080AT-80E/MF application, or SST26VF080AT-80E/MF equivalent, key selection criteria include SQI vs. SPI mode compatibility, 80 MHz timing at extended temperature, WDFN-8 (6×5 mm) package footprint, hardware write protection via WP# pin, and OTP Security ID support for secure firmware binding.
Technical Context
The SST26VF080AT-80E/MF implements a six-wire, 4-bit multiplexed I/O interface (SIO[3:0]) supporting both legacy SPI (x1/x2) and high-throughput SQI protocols. Its SuperFlash® split-gate cell technology enables fast erase (20 ms sector, 40 ms chip) and low active current (15 mA @ 80 MHz) while maintaining single-supply operation.
It features dual-mode pin functionality: RST#/HOLD#/SIO3 and WP#/SIO2 are configurable via Configuration register bits (RSTHLD, IOC); burst modes include continuous linear and wrap-around (8/16/32/64-byte); and end-of-write detection uses BUSY bit polling in the STATUS register.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Winbond W25Q80DVSSIG | 8-Mbit SPI-only (no SQI), 104 MHz max, SOIC-8 package only, no OTP Security ID | Lacks SQI bandwidth and security features; suitable for cost-sensitive, non-automotive designs | Select if SQI interface and AEC-Q100 qualification are unnecessary and SOIC-8 footprint is preferred |
| Cypress S25FL008KAGMFI010 | 8-Mbit Quad SPI (QSPI), 104 MHz, WSON-8 (6×5 mm), no OTP Security ID, no write-suspend | Supports QSPI but not SQI protocol; lacks Security ID and suspend/resume functionality | Choose when QSPI compatibility suffices and advanced security or interruptible writes are not required |
Compared with W25Q80DVSSIG and S25FL008KAGMFI010, the SST26VF080AT-80E/MF uniquely combines AEC-Q100 qualification, SQI protocol acceleration, OTP Security ID, and write-suspend-making it optimal for automotive and safety-critical industrial firmware where throughput, security, and operational flexibility are jointly required.

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by SST26VF080AT-80E/MF at extended temperature?
The SST26VF080AT-80E/MF supports up to 80 MHz maximum clock frequency when operating across the extended temperature range of –40°C to +125°C, under 2.3V–3.6V supply conditions. This rating is validated per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements and applies to both SPI and SQI read operations. The 80 MHz limit ensures timing margin and signal integrity in thermally demanding automotive and industrial environments where the SST26VF080AT-80E/MF is commonly deployed.
Does SST26VF080AT-80E/MF support true Quad I/O (QIO) or only Serial Quad I/O (SQI)?
The SST26VF080AT-80E/MF implements Serial Quad I/O™ (SQI), a proprietary Microchip protocol using four multiplexed bidirectional I/O lines (SIO[3:0]) for command, address, and data transfer - distinct from standard Quad SPI (QSPI). Unlike QSPI, SQI requires explicit EQIO (38H) command activation and supports continuous linear burst reads. The SST26VF080AT-80E/MF does not support JEDEC-standard QSPI commands like 4-4-4 or 0-4-4, and its SQI mode is incompatible with generic QSPI controllers without firmware adaptation.
How is hardware write protection implemented on SST26VF080AT-80E/MF?
Hardware write protection on SST26VF080AT-80E/MF is controlled by the WP# pin in conjunction with the WPEN and IOC bits in the Configuration register. When IOC = 0 (default), WP# functions as a hardware write-protect input; when WPEN = 1 and WP# is driven low, it locks the Block Protection Lock-down (BPL) bit and prevents modification of BP0–BP3 in the STATUS register. The SST26VF080AT-80E/MF ships with WPEN = 0 by default, disabling WP# functionality until explicitly enabled via Configuration register write.
Can SST26VF080AT-80E/MF be used as a direct replacement for standard SPI Flash devices?
Yes, the SST26VF080AT-80E/MF is fully backward-compatible with standard SPI Flash devices at power-on reset: it defaults to SPI x1 mode and supports all common SPI opcodes (03H, 0BH, 20H, D8H, etc.). No hardware changes are needed to integrate the SST26VF080AT-80E/MF into existing SPI-based designs. However, to leverage SQI performance or advanced features like write-suspend or Security ID, firmware modifications and proper Configuration register setup (IOC, RSTHLD) are required.
What is the purpose and structure of the Security ID feature in SST26VF080AT-80E/MF?
The SST26VF080AT-80E/MF includes a 2-Kbyte OTP Security ID space comprising a factory-programmed 128-bit unique identifier (immutable) and a user-programmable 2-Kbyte region. The Security ID is accessed via PSID (A5H), RSID (88H), and LSID (85H) commands. Once locked with LSID, the entire Security ID space becomes read-only. This feature enables cryptographic binding of firmware images to specific hardware units - a critical requirement for secure boot in automotive and medical applications using the SST26VF080AT-80E/MF.
