2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX25L25635F is 256Mb bits serial Flash memory, which is configured as 33,554,432 x 8 internally. When it is in
two or four I/O mode, the structure becomes 134,217,728 bits x 2 or 67,108,864 bits x 4. MX25L25635F feature a
serial peripheral interface and software protocol allowing operation on a simple 3-wire bus while it is in single I/O
mode. The three bus signals are a clock input (SCLK), a serial data input (SI), and a serial data output (SO). Serial
access to the device is enabled by CS# input
When it is in two I/O read mode, the SI pin and SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin for address/dummy bits
input and data output. When it is in four I/O read mode, the SI pin, SO pin, WP# and RESET# pin become SIO0
pin, SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin and SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data output.
The MX25L25635F MXSMIO®(Serial Multi I/O) provides sequential read operation on whole chip.
After program/erase command is issued, auto program/ erase algorithms which program/ erase and verify the
specified page or sector/block locations will be executed. Program command is executed on byte basis, or page (256 bytes) basis, or word basis for erase command is executed on sector (4K-byte), block (32K-byte), or block (64K-byte),or whole chip basis.
To provide user with ease of interface, a status register is included to indicate the status of the chip. The status read command can be issued to detect completion status of a program or erase operation via WIP bit.
Advanced security features enhance the protection and security functions, please see security features section for
more details.
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode.
The MX25L25635F utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after
100,000 program and erase cycles.
