Product details
Overview
W25Q16JVZPIM TR from Winbond is a 16 M-bit (2 MB) serial NOR flash memory IC supporting Dual/Quad SPI, QPI, and DTR read modes. It operates from 2.7V to 3.6V, delivers up to 133 MHz SPI clock frequency, enables true execute-in-place (XIP) operation, and features uniform 4 KB sectors for flexible code and data storage in space-constrained embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the W25Q16JVZPIM TR datasheet, W25Q16JVZPIM TR pinout, W25Q16JVZPIM TR application, or W25Q16JVZPIM TR equivalent, this device is selected for high-speed boot code storage, firmware update partitioning, and secure parameter retention where low-power operation, JEDEC-compliant ID support, and quad I/O throughput are required.
Technical Context
The W25Q16JVZPIM TR implements a quad-peripheral interface (QPI) mode that reduces instruction overhead by accepting opcodes across all four I/O lines in two clock cycles instead of eight. Its DTR (Double Transfer Rate) capability latches address and data on both clock edges, enabling 266 MB/s effective throughput in Dual I/O and 532 MB/s in Quad I/O configurations.
It integrates volatile and non-volatile status register bits-including Quad Enable (QE), Block Protect (BP2–BP0), Top/Bottom protect (TB), and Security Register Lock (LB1–LB3)-to support hardware-locked sector protection, OTP-secured security registers, and configurable /HOLD or /RESET functionality on Pin 7 depending on QE state.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 /CS | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable signal; places DO/IO pins in high-impedance state when deasserted |
| 2 DO (IO1) | Data Output / Bidirectional I/O | Unidirectional output in Standard SPI; bidirectional I/O in Dual/Quad SPI and QPI modes |
| 3 /WP (IO2) | Write Protect Input / Bidirectional I/O | Hardware lock for status register when QE=0; becomes IO2 in Quad mode (QE=1) |
| 4 GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for VCC and I/O signals; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
| 5 DI (IO0) | Data Input / Bidirectional I/O | Unidirectional input in Standard SPI; bidirectional I/O in Dual/Quad SPI and QPI modes |
| 6 CLK | Serial Clock Input | Synchronizes all SPI/QPI transfers; supports Mode 0 and Mode 3 clock polarity/idle states |
| 7 /HOLD or /RESET (IO3) | Hold or Reset Input / Bidirectional I/O | Pauses ongoing operations when /CS active (QE=0); functions as dedicated /RESET only in TFBGA packages (not ZP) |
| 8 VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; decoupling capacitor required within 10 mm of pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) | Reduces instruction overhead by 75% vs Standard SPI-opcode fetched in 2 clocks instead of 8-enabling faster XIP startup |

| Security Registers | Three 256-byte OTP-lockable registers for storing cryptographic keys or calibration data with hardware-enforced write protection |
| Continuous Read Mode | Supports 8/16/32/64-byte wrap bursts with only 8-clock instruction overhead-minimizes latency during sequential code fetch |
| Flexible Write Protection | Combines hardware (/WP pin), software (status register BP bits), and OTP (LB bits) layers to protect boot sectors from accidental overwrite |
| JEDEC SFDP Compliance | Provides standardized, discoverable parameter table (SFDP Register) for automatic driver configuration in Linux and RTOS environments |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MX25L1606EZN-12G | 16 M-bit, 104 MHz max clock, no QPI or DTR support, lacks security registers and SFDP | Lower-cost option for basic code storage without XIP acceleration or cryptographic key storage needs | Select when QPI/DTR throughput and hardware security features are not required |
| S25FL116K0XMFI011 | 16 M-bit, 80 MHz max clock, supports QPI but no DTR; includes 128-byte one-time-programmable (OTP) area | Targeted at Cypress/Fujitsu ecosystem designs with legacy driver compatibility and moderate speed requirements | Prefer when existing software stack relies on Spansion-compatible command set and DTR is unnecessary |
Compared with MX25L1606EZN-12G and S25FL116K0XMFI011, the W25Q16JVZPIM TR delivers higher bandwidth (133 MHz + DTR), integrated security registers, and JEDEC SFDP auto-discovery-making it optimal for next-generation XIP-capable, secure, and driver-agnostic embedded platforms.

FAQ
What is the package type and lead finish of W25Q16JVZPIM TR?
W25Q16JVZPIM TR uses an 8-pad WSON 6×5 mm package (Package Code ZP) with wettable flank leads and a lead-free, halogen-free finish compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The package supports reflow soldering per J-STD-020D.3 and is optimized for automated optical inspection in high-volume manufacturing.
Does W25Q16JVZPIM TR support execute-in-place (XIP) operation, and what interfaces enable it?
Yes, W25Q16JVZPIM TR supports true XIP operation via Continuous Read Mode with Quad SPI and QPI interfaces. Its 8-clock instruction overhead and wrap-burst capability allow microcontrollers to fetch and execute code directly from flash without copying to RAM. DTR read instructions further reduce latency by sampling data on both clock edges.
How does the /HOLD and /RESET functionality work on Pin 7 of W25Q16JVZPIM TR?
On W25Q16JVZPIM TR (ZP package), Pin 7 functions as /HOLD when the Quad Enable (QE) bit in Status Register-2 is cleared (QE=0). When QE=1, Pin 7 becomes IO3 for Quad SPI/QPI operation and /HOLD is disabled. Unlike TFBGA variants, the ZP package does not provide a dedicated /RESET pin; hardware reset is only available via software command (66h + 99h).
What security features does W25Q16JVZPIM TR provide beyond standard write protection?
W25Q16JVZPIM TR includes three 256-byte Security Registers with OTP lock bits (LB1–LB3), a 64-bit unique serial number, JEDEC SFDP register for standardized parameter discovery, and configurable top/bottom/complement sector protection. These features enable secure key storage, device identity binding, and tamper-resistant firmware partitioning not found in basic SPI flash devices.
Is W25Q16JVZPIM TR pin-compatible with other members of the W25QxxJV family?
Yes, W25Q16JVZPIM TR shares identical pinout, electrical characteristics, and command set with other W25QxxJV family members in the same WSON 6×5 mm (ZP) package-including W25Q80JV, W25Q32JV, and W25Q64JV. This enables scalable memory design with drop-in capacity upgrades while preserving PCB layout and firmware drivers.
