S25FL256LAGMFI001Z

Memory IC Overview

The S25FL256LAGMFI001Z is a 256 Mbit (32 Mbyte) NOR Flash memory IC manufactured by Spansion, now part of Infineon Technologies. It utilizes the MirrorBit technology and features a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) supporting Quad I/O and QPI modes with clock frequencies up to 133 MHz. The device operates within a voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V and is housed in a 16-SOIC package. It supports standard SPI, Dual I/O, and Quad I/O protocols, enabling efficient code execution and data storage applications.

Memory IC Feature Summary

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin, as Spansion was acquired by Infineon. Confirm the specific suffix '001Z' matches the required RoHS compliance and lead-free status. Ensure the 16-SOIC package width and pinout align with your PCB design. Check for any obsolescence notices or lifecycle status updates from the current manufacturer.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when a 256 Mbit capacity is required with support for high-speed Quad I/O operations. It is suitable for designs needing XIP capabilities and operating voltages between 2.7 V and 3.6 V. Consider the 16-SOIC package constraints and thermal requirements for your specific application environment.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the S25FL256L series of NOR Flash memories. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the FL-L family, offering comparable interface speeds and feature sets. The 'LAGMFI001Z' suffix indicates specific packaging, temperature range, and compliance attributes defined by the manufacturer.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other S25FL256L variants with compatible pinouts and electrical characteristics. Verify that alternative parts support the same Quad I/O/QPI modes and voltage ranges. Cross-reference with Infineon's official replacement guides for qualified alternatives.
