Product details
Overview
W25Q64FWSSIF TR from Winbond is a 1.8V, 64M-bit (8MB) serial NOR flash memory with Dual/Quad SPI and QPI interfaces, organized as 32,768 × 256-byte pages. It supports 104MHz SPI clock, 416MHz equivalent Quad I/O transfer rate, 4KB uniform sector erase, and hardware write protection via /WP and /HOLD pins. It is used for code execution in place (XIP), firmware storage, and boot image retention in space-constrained embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the W25Q64FWSSIF TR datasheet, W25Q64FWSSIF TR pinout, W25Q64FWSSIF TR application, or W25Q64FWSSIF TR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-8 (SS) package mapping, confirmed Quad Enable (QE) register behavior, JEDEC ID compatibility, and real-world XIP timing constraints - all validated against Winbond's official Revision N datasheet (May 2017).
Technical Context
The W25Q64FWSSIF TR implements a quad-peripheral interface (QPI) mode activated by instruction 0x38, reducing instruction overhead to two clocks versus eight in standard SPI. Its status register architecture includes volatile/non-volatile BP2–BP0, TB, SEC, CMP, SRP0/SRP1, QE, and HOLD/RST configuration bits - enabling flexible memory protection and pin function remapping.
It supports three distinct I/O modes: Standard SPI (DI/DO), Dual SPI (IO0/IO1), and Quad SPI (IO0–IO3), where /WP and /HOLD become IO2 and IO3 only when QE=1. Erase operations include 4KB sector (20h), 32KB block (52h), 64KB block (D8h), and chip erase (C7h/60h), with suspend/resume (75h/7Ah) for concurrent background operations.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MX25L6433FZNI-10G | 3.3V supply (vs. 1.8V); same 64Mb density, SOIC-8, and Quad SPI support; no QPI mode | Requires level-shifting in 1.8V systems; lacks QPI instruction efficiency for XIP-critical boot paths | Select when legacy 3.3V host MCU interfaces exist and QPI throughput is not required. |
| S25FL164K0XMFI010 | 1.8V operation; 64Mb density; supports HyperBus interface (not SPI/QPI); different pinout (16-pin SOIC) | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB redesign; offers higher bandwidth (up to 166 MHz DDR) but no JEDEC ID or SFDP | Choose only if migrating to Cypress/Infineon ecosystem with HyperFlash controller support. |
Compared with MX25L6433FZNI-10G and S25FL164K0XMFI010, W25Q64FWSSIF TR uniquely delivers 1.8V operation with QPI mode, JEDEC ID, SFDP, and 4KB sector flexibility - making it optimal for new 1.8V SoC designs requiring fast, secure, and field-upgradable boot memory without layout changes.

FAQ
What is the package type and lead finish of W25Q64FWSSIF TR?
W25Q64FWSSIF TR uses an 8-pin SOIC-208-mil package (Package Code SS) with gull-wing leads, 1.27 mm pitch, and matte tin (Sn) RoHS-compliant finish. This package is compatible with standard reflow profiles (J-STD-020, peak 260°C) and supports automated optical inspection (AOI) due to its defined coplanarity and solderable surface geometry.
Does W25Q64FWSSIF TR support execute-in-place (XIP) operation?
Yes, W25Q64FWSSIF TR supports true XIP via Continuous Read Mode and Fast Read Quad I/O (EBh) instructions, achieving up to 50 MB/s sustained read throughput. Its 8-clock instruction overhead and 104MHz SPI clock enable deterministic latency for direct code execution - validated in Winbond's application note AN201-01 for ARM Cortex-M boot scenarios.
How is hardware write protection implemented on W25Q64FWSSIF TR?
W25Q64FWSSIF TR implements hardware write protection using the /WP pin (Pin 3) in conjunction with status register bits BP2–BP0, TB, SEC, and CMP. When /WP is held low and SRP0/SRP1 are set, writes to protected sectors or status registers are blocked - independent of software commands. This dual-layer scheme prevents accidental or malicious firmware corruption during power transients.
What is the function of Pin 7 (/HOLD or /RESET) on W25Q64FWSSIF TR?
Pin 7 on W25Q64FWSSIF TR serves dual functions: /HOLD (active-low pause) in Standard/Dual SPI mode, and /RESET (hardware reset) when configured via Status Register-2 HOLD/RST bit. When QE=1 (Quad SPI/QPI enabled), Pin 7 becomes IO3 and neither /HOLD nor /RESET is available - a key design constraint for systems requiring runtime reset capability.
Is W25Q64FWSSIF TR compatible with JEDEC-standard serial flash commands?
Yes, W25Q64FWSSIF TR fully complies with JEDEC JESD216B for SFDP register structure and supports standard commands including Read JEDEC ID (9Fh), Read SFDP (5Ah), and Manufacturer ID (90h). Its SFDP table defines 1.6 revision, Quad Enable bit location (SR2[1]), and supported instruction sets - enabling automatic configuration by modern flash-aware bootloaders.
