GD25Q20CEIGR

Memory IC Overview

The GD25Q20CEIGR is a 2 Mbit (256K x 8) NOR flash memory IC manufactured by GigaDevice. It features an SPI interface with Quad I/O support and operates at clock frequencies up to 120 MHz. The device functions within a supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V, with a maximum active read current of 20 mA. It is housed in an 8-USON package measuring 2x3 mm and supports industrial operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports Dual and Quad Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) modes for high-speed data transfer
• Provides uniform sector architecture suitable for code storage applications
• Ensures long-term data retention and high endurance for reliable operation

Memory IC Applications

• Code storage for microcontrollers and system-on-chip designs
• Embedded systems requiring non-volatile firmware storage
• Consumer electronics devices needing compact memory solutions

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EIGR' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-USON form factor. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements during assembly to prevent damage. Cross-reference RoHS compliance status with current regulatory standards before procurement.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a small footprint is required alongside standard SPI/Quad SPI performance. The 2 Mbit capacity is ideal for storing boot code or application firmware in space-constrained designs. Consider the 120 MHz speed and 2.7V minimum voltage for systems prioritizing efficiency over ultra-low power consumption found in lower-voltage variants.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the GD25Q20C series of 3.3V Uniform Sector Dual and Quad Serial Flash memories. It is designed for applications requiring moderate density and high reliability. The USON package offers a compact solution compared to traditional SOP packages, facilitating integration into modern, miniaturized electronic devices.
