The Winbond W25Q16 16-megabit SpiFlash Memory , the first in a family of high-performance memories ranging from 8 to 64 megabits, and features single, dual and quad I/Os in space- and cost-saving 8-pin packaging. The W25Q16’s Quad-SPI architecture allows for greater than six times the performance of the current generation of Serial Flash memories and offers a true code-execution (XIP) alternative to parallel-NOR Flash.Serial This flash memory have many advance, such as: reduced controller pin count, smaller and simpler PCBs, reduced switching noise, less power consumption, and lower system cost.
It also the first Serial Flash memory to offer erase-suspend/-resume capability, commonly found in parallel Flash memories and necessary for interrupt-driven systems that must temporally halt an erase operation to read from Flash memory. Security is also enhanced with lock-down and one-time-programmable (OTP) write protection, and a 64-bit unique identification number that can be used as a seed for copy-protection schemes.
