Product details
Overview
W25Q64JVZEJQ from Winbond is a 64M-bit (8MB) serial NOR flash memory IC supporting Standard, Dual, and Quad SPI interfaces. It features 32,768 pages of 256 bytes each, 4KB uniform sector erase, 133MHz max clock frequency, and operates from 2.7V to 3.6V with <1µA power-down current. It is used for code execution (XIP), firmware storage, and parameter retention in embedded microcontrollers and IoT edge devices.
For engineers reviewing the W25Q64JVZEJQ datasheet, W25Q64JVZEJQ pinout, W25Q64JVZEJQ application, or W25Q64JVZEJQ equivalent, key selection criteria include Quad SPI enable (QE bit), hardware /RESET availability in TFBGA/SOIC-16 packages, 4KB sector granularity for OTA updates, and JEDEC-compliant SFDP register support for auto-configuration.
Technical Context
The W25Q64JVZEJQ implements a SPI-compatible command set with three operational modes: Standard (DI/DO), Dual (IO0/IO1), and Quad (IO0–IO3), where Quad mode requires non-volatile QE bit = 1 in Status Register-2. Its architecture includes a 256-byte page buffer, sector/block erase logic, and three 256-byte security registers with OTP lock bits.
It supports JEDEC-standard Manufacturer ID (EFh), Device ID (4017h), 64-bit unique serial number, and SFDP v1.6 register for configurable timing and feature discovery. Hardware reset (/RESET) is available only on SOIC-16 and TFBGA packages - not on the ZE (WSON 8x6-mm) variant - while /HOLD functionality is disabled in Quad mode as IO3.

Pinout & Package
W25Q64JVZEJQ uses the WSON 8x6-mm (Package Code ZE) 8-pad surface-mount package, with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is /CS, Pin 2 is DO (IO1), Pin 3 is /WP (IO2), Pin 4 is GND, Pin 5 is DI (IO0), Pin 6 is CLK, Pin 7 is /HOLD or /RESET (IO3), and Pin 8 is VCC. The /HOLD function is active low and disabled in Quad mode; no dedicated /RESET pin is present in this package.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| /CS (Pin 1) | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable: high-Z output and standby current (<1 µA) when deasserted; required high-to-low transition before instruction acceptance. |
| DO / IO1 (Pin 2) | Data Output / Bidirectional I/O | Unidirectional output in Standard SPI; becomes bidirectional IO1 in Dual/Quad modes; supports Fast Read Dual/Quad Output instructions. |
| /WP / IO2 (Pin 3) | Write Protect Input / Bidirectional I/O | Hardware write-protection for status register when low; repurposed as IO2 in Quad mode after QE=1 is set. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all I/O and core logic; must be low-impedance and decoupled near VCC pin. |
| DI / IO0 (Pin 5) | Data Input / Bidirectional I/O | Unidirectional input in Standard SPI; becomes bidirectional IO0 in Dual/Quad modes; used for all instruction/address/data writes. |
| CLK (Pin 6) | Serial Clock Input | Edge-triggered timing source; supports SPI Mode 0 and Mode 3; max 133 MHz; requires stable duty cycle and monotonic edges. |
| /HOLD / IO3 (Pin 7) | Hold Input / Bidirectional I/O | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer when low (active low); disabled in Quad mode and repurposed as IO3; not functional as /RESET in ZE package. |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Power Supply | 2.7–3.6 V supply; requires local 100 nF ceramic decoupling; powers internal charge pumps for erase/program operations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad Enable (QE) Bit | Non-volatile bit in Status Register-2 that permanently enables IO2/IO3 for Quad SPI operation; required before issuing Quad Read/Program commands. |
| Erase/Program Suspend | Allows pausing active erase or program operations to service time-critical reads; resumes via dedicated Resume instruction (7Ah). |
| Security Registers | Three 256-byte one-time-programmable (OTP) registers for keys, certificates, or calibration data; locked via LB1–LB3 bits in Status Register-3. |
| SFDP Register | JEDEC JESD216-compliant Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters table at address 000000h; enables automatic driver initialization and timing configuration. |
| Individual Sector Lock | Per-sector software lock/unlock capability (36h/39h instructions) for secure firmware partitioning without affecting adjacent sectors. |
| Top/Bottom Protection | Configurable TB bit allows hardware write protection of either top or bottom half of memory array, independent of BP bits. |

FAQ
What is the package type and pin count of W25Q64JVZEJQ?
W25Q64JVZEJQ uses an 8-pad WSON package measuring 8 mm × 6 mm (Package Code ZE). It has eight terminals: /CS, DO (IO1), /WP (IO2), GND, DI (IO0), CLK, /HOLD (IO3), and VCC. Unlike SOIC-16 or TFBGA variants, this package does not include a dedicated /RESET pin - /HOLD serves as IO3 in Quad mode only.
Does W25Q64JVZEJQ support Quad SPI mode out of the box?
No, W25Q64JVZEJQ requires explicit configuration to enable Quad SPI. The non-volatile Quad Enable (QE) bit in Status Register-2 must be set to '1' using the Write Status Register-2 (31h) instruction. Until then, IO2 and IO3 remain unavailable, and /WP and /HOLD retain their hardware protection functions.
How many program/erase cycles does W25Q64JVZEJQ guarantee per sector?
W25Q64JVZEJQ guarantees a minimum of 100,000 program/erase cycles per 4KB sector. This endurance rating applies under specified operating conditions (2.7–3.6 V, −40°C to +85°C) and is validated per JEDEC standards, supporting frequent field updates in industrial logging and configuration applications.
Can W25Q64JVZEJQ be used for secure key storage?
Yes, W25Q64JVZEJQ includes three 256-byte Security Registers with one-time-programmable (OTP) lock bits (LB1–LB3). Once locked, these registers cannot be rewritten, making them suitable for storing cryptographic keys, device certificates, or calibration secrets - provided the locking sequence is executed correctly during manufacturing.
What is the purpose of the SFDP register in W25Q64JVZEJQ?
The SFDP (Serial Flash Discoverable Parameters) register in W25Q64JVZEJQ is a JEDEC JESD216-compliant table located at address 0x000000. It provides standardized, read-only descriptors for timing parameters, erase block sizes, and feature flags - enabling host drivers to auto-configure without hard-coded constants or vendor-specific knowledge.
