Product details
Overview
W25Q128JVFIM TR from Winbond is a 128M-bit (16MB) serial NOR flash memory IC supporting Standard/Dual/Quad SPI, QPI, and DTR read modes. It operates from 2.7V to 3.6V, delivers up to 133MHz SPI clock (532MHz equivalent Quad I/O), features 4KB uniform sectors, 100K program-erase cycles per sector, and 20+ year data retention. It serves as non-volatile code storage and XIP execution memory in microcontroller boot systems.
For engineers reviewing the W25Q128JVFIM TR datasheet, W25Q128JVFIM TR pinout, W25Q128JVFIM TR application, or W25Q128JVFIM TR equivalent, key selection criteria include quad I/O timing compliance, /RESET pin availability, JEDEC ID verification, SFDP register support, and hardware write-protection configuration via /WP and status register bits.
Technical Context
The W25Q128JVFIM TR implements a flexible SPI-compatible command architecture with volatile/non-volatile status registers (SR1–SR3), enabling configurable block protection (BP2–BP0, TB, SEC), quad enable (QE), and output driver strength (DRV1/DRV0). Its dual-function pins (/HOLD or /RESET on IO3) are mode-dependent: /HOLD active in standard/dual SPI; /RESET available only in 16-pin SOIC or TFBGA packages or when QE=0 in 8-pin variants.
It supports true execute-in-place (XIP) via Continuous Read Mode with ≤8-clock instruction overhead and wrap lengths of 8/16/32/64 bytes. DTR (Double Transfer Rate) operation requires explicit DTR-capable instructions (e.g., 0Dh, BDh, EDh) and is validated for 133MHz CLK with 266/532MHz effective throughput in Dual/Quad I/O modes.

Pinout & Package
W25Q128JVFIM TR uses the 8-pad WSON 8x6-mm package (Package Code E), with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are shared across SPI modes: IO0–IO3 serve as DI/DO/WP/HOLD in standard mode, and as bidirectional data lines in Quad SPI when QE=1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| /CS | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable; high-impedance DO during deselect; must transition high→low after power-up before first instruction |
| DO (IO1) | Data Output / I/O1 | Unidirectional output in Standard SPI; bidirectional in Dual/Quad SPI; driven low during /HOLD assertion |
| /WP (IO2) | Write Protect Input / I/O2 | Hardware lock for status register writes; disabled in Quad SPI (reassigned to IO2); active-low, requires pull-up when unused |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return; connects to thermal pad for thermal dissipation in WSON package |
| DI (IO0) | Data Input / I/O0 | Unidirectional input in Standard SPI; bidirectional in Dual/Quad SPI; latched on rising CLK edge |
| CLK | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated timing signal; supports SPI Mode 0 and Mode 3; max 133 MHz frequency |
| /HOLD or /RESET (IO3) | Hold or Reset Input / I/O3 | In 8-pin WSON, function depends on QE bit: QE=0 → /HOLD (active-low pause); QE=1 → IO3 only (no /RESET) |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7–3.6 V supply; decoupling capacitor required near pin; powers internal HV generators for erase/program |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) | Reduces instruction overhead by encoding commands/data in 4-bit nibbles - cuts bus transactions by ~75% vs Standard SPI |
| DTR Read Support | Enables double-data-rate sampling on CLK edges - verified for 0Dh (DTR Fast Read), BDh (DTR Dual I/O), EDh (DTR Quad I/O) |
| Erase/Program Suspend & Resume | Allows background interrupt handling during long erase cycles - critical for real-time OS integration |
| Individual Block/Sector Lock | Per-sector hardware lock via 36h/39h instructions - prevents accidental overwrite of bootloader or calibration data |
| Discoverable Parameters (SFDP) | Standardized JEDEC JESD216 register provides programmable timing, voltage, and feature flags - enables auto-configuration in HAL drivers |
Applications
| Industrial HMI Boot Storage | Automotive ADAS Firmware |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MX25L12835FZC-10G | 128 M-bit, 104 MHz max clock, no DTR support, lacks /RESET pin in 8-pin package | Lower bandwidth; unsuitable for DTR-dependent XIP or high-speed continuous read | Select only if DTR and >104 MHz operation are not required; verify /HOLD functionality matches design |
| S25FL128SAGMFI000 | 128 M-bit, 133 MHz, supports DTR but requires separate /RESET pin; different SFDP layout and security register mapping | Requires PCB redesign for /RESET routing; HAL driver adaptation needed for security register access | Choose when Cypress ecosystem integration or specific AEC-Q100 qualification is mandated |
Compared with W25Q128JVFIM TR, MX25L12835FZC-10G offers lower cost but sacrifices DTR throughput and reset flexibility, while S25FL128SAGMFI000 provides comparable speed and DTR but demands board-level changes and firmware revalidation due to divergent register architecture.

FAQ
What is the package type and footprint compatibility of W25Q128JVFIM TR?
W25Q128JVFIM TR uses the 8-pad WSON 8x6-mm package (Package Code E) with an exposed thermal pad. It shares pinout and footprint compatibility with other Winbond W25Q128JV variants in the same WSON 8x6-mm configuration, including W25Q128JVSIM TR and W25Q128JVEIM TR. No PCB redesign is needed when migrating between these variants, provided /RESET functionality is not required.
Does W25Q128JVFIM TR support hardware reset via /RESET pin?
No - W25Q128JVFIM TR does not provide a dedicated /RESET pin. In its 8-pad WSON package, pin 7 is configured as /HOLD (when QE=0) or IO3 (when QE=1); /RESET functionality is only available on 16-pin SOIC (F) and TFBGA (B/C) packages. Hardware reset must be implemented via software command (66h + 99h) or external circuitry.
How is Quad SPI mode enabled on W25Q128JVFIM TR?
Quad SPI mode on W25Q128JVFIM TR is enabled by setting the Quad Enable (QE) bit in Status Register-2 using instruction 31h. Once QE=1, pins /WP (IO2) and /HOLD (IO3) become bidirectional I/O lines IO2 and IO3. This change is non-volatile unless cleared; the device defaults to Standard SPI on power-up until QE is explicitly set.
What is the purpose of the SFDP register in W25Q128JVFIM TR?
The SFDP (Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters) register in W25Q128JVFIM TR (accessed via instruction 5Ah) provides standardized JEDEC JESD216-compliant metadata about timing parameters, voltage ranges, erase block sizes, and supported instructions. It enables automatic driver configuration in modern MCU HALs and eliminates hard-coded timing assumptions during firmware bring-up.
Can W25Q128JVFIM TR be used for Execute-in-Place (XIP) applications?
Yes - W25Q128JVFIM TR supports true XIP via Continuous Read Mode with ≤8-clock instruction overhead and configurable wrap lengths (8/16/32/64 bytes). When paired with a controller supporting Quad SPI or QPI, it delivers deterministic read latency and bandwidth sufficient for direct code execution from flash in Cortex-M and RISC-V systems.
