GD25LQ16CNIGR

Memory IC Overview

The GD25LQ16CNIGR is a 16 Mbit NOR flash memory device manufactured by GigaDevice. It features an SPI Quad I/O interface with a maximum clock frequency of 104 MHz and operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 2.1 V. The memory organization is 2 M x 8 bits, housed in an 8-USON (4x3) surface-mount package. It supports industrial operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C and includes humidity sensitivity level 3 compliance.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports standard SPI and Quad I/O modes for flexible data transfer
• Integrates hardware-based ECC algorithms and CRC checksums for data integrity
• Includes security registers with OTP lock capabilities
• Features unique ID identification for device tracking

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable code storage
• Consumer electronics utilizing low-voltage power supplies
• Embedded applications needing hardware error correction
• Automotive infotainment and cockpit modules

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'NIGR' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm the exact package type and temperature grade. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status directly with the supplier. Check for any obsolescence notices or PCN updates as this component may have limited availability. Ensure ESD handling procedures are followed during procurement and assembly.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part when a compact 8-USON footprint is required alongside Quad SPI performance. It is suitable for designs operating at 1.8V logic levels. Consider alternatives if higher clock speeds like 120 MHz are needed, such as the GD25Q series. Verify that the 104 MHz speed meets the system timing requirements.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the GD25LQ16C family of SPI NOR flash memories. It shares core specifications with variants like the GD25LQ16CTIGR but differs in package style. The family is designed for high-reliability applications with integrated security and error correction features.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

GD25LQ16CTIGR offers similar electrical characteristics but uses an SOP-8 package instead of USON. GD25Q16CNIGR provides a higher clock frequency of 120 MHz but requires a wider voltage range of 2.7V to 3.6V.
