MT25QL128ABA8E14-0SIT

Memory IC Overview

The Micron MT25QL128ABA8E14-0SIT is a 128 Mbit Serial NOR Flash memory device featuring an SPI-compatible interface. It operates within a voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V and supports clock frequencies up to 133 MHz in Single Transfer Rate (STR) mode, with Dual/Quad I/O commands enabling throughput up to 90 MB/s. The device utilizes a 24-ball T-PBGA package (05/6mm x 8mm, 4x6 array). It includes Execute-in-Place (XIP) capabilities, sector erase granularity of 64KB, subsector erase options of 4KB and 32KB, and a dedicated 64-byte user-lockable OTP area.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Supports Execute-in-Place (XIP) for direct code execution from the flash memory.
• Includes a dedicated 64-byte One-Time Programmable (OTP) area that is readable and permanently lockable by the user.
• Provides advanced security features including hardware write protection via nonvolatile bits and password protection mechanisms.

Memory IC Applications

• Boot source storage for embedded systems
• Code storage for applications and operating systems
• In-situ firmware updates

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current catalog to confirm pin configuration and package dimensions. Ensure compatibility with system voltage requirements and thermal specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 24-ball BGA footprint is required for high-density designs. Verify that the host controller supports the necessary STR/DTR protocols and Quad I/O commands to utilize the specified data throughput capabilities effectively.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the Micron MT25QL family of 3V Serial NOR Flash memories. It represents a second-generation device offering enhanced performance over previous iterations while maintaining standard SPI compatibility for broad integration support across various industrial and consumer electronic platforms.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Micron MT25QL128 variants with different package codes such as MT25QL128ABA8ESF-0SIT or MT25QL128ABA1ESE-0SIT, provided the physical footprint and pinout match the design constraints.
