GENERAL DESCRIPTION
They are ideal for code shadowing to RAM, executing code directly from Dual/Quad SPI (XIP) and storing voice, text and data. The device operates on a single 1.65V to 1.95V power supply with current consumption as low as 4mA active and 1µA for power-down. All devices are offered in spacesaving packages. The W25Q16DW array is organized into 8,192 programmable pages of 256-bytes each. Up to 256 bytes can be programmed at a time. Pages can be erased in groups of 16 (4KB sector erase), groups of 128 (32KB block erase), groups of 256 (64KB block erase) or the entire chip (chip erase). The W25Q16DW has 512 erasable sectors and 32 erasable blocks respectively. The small 4KB sectors allow for greater flexibility in applications that require data and parameter storage. (See figure 2.) The W25Q16DW support the standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), Dual/Quad I/O SPI as well as 2clocks instruction cycle Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI): Serial Clock, Chip Select, Serial Data I/O0 (DI), I/O1 (DO), I/O2 (/WP), and I/O3 (/HOLD).
