GD25VQ16CSIG

Memory IC Overview

The GD25VQ16CSIG is a 16Mbit (2M x 8) SPI NOR Flash memory IC manufactured by GigaDevice. It features Quad I/O support with a maximum clock frequency of 104 MHz. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.3V to 3.6V and supports an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. It is housed in an 8-SOP package with a width of 5.30mm. Key timing parameters include a page program time of 50µs and a sector erase time of 3ms.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports standard SPI, Dual I/O, Quad I/O, and QPI modes for flexible interface compatibility.
• Integrates hardware-based error correction code (ECC) algorithms and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) verification to enhance data integrity.
• Includes security registers with OTP locks and supports hardware reset functionality.

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring wide temperature stability
• Consumer electronics firmware storage
• IoT devices needing reliable non-volatile code execution

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CSIG' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package dimensions and RoHS compliance status. Confirm availability as some distributors list this part as obsolete or end-of-life. Ensure the required operating voltage aligns with the 2.3V minimum specification for your system design.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16Mbit density is required with Quad I/O speeds up to 104 MHz. It is suitable for designs needing industrial temperature ratings (-40°C to +85°C) and 8-SOP surface mount packaging. Consider alternatives if lower voltage operation below 2.3V is necessary or if higher clock frequencies are required.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the GD25VQ series of SPI NOR Flash memories from GigaDevice. The series is designed for high-performance applications requiring reliable code storage. It shares common interface protocols with other GD25 family members but is distinct in its specific voltage range and industrial temperature rating.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible substitutes within the GD25VQ series with different suffixes. Verify if GD25VE16CSIGR offers equivalent performance with tape-and-reel packaging instead of tubes.
