1. GENERAL DESCRIPTIONS

The W25R256JV (256M-bit) Serial Flash memory provides a storage solution for systems with limited

space, pins and power. The W25R series offers flexibility and performance well beyond ordinary Serial

Flash devices. They are ideal for code shadowing to RAM, executing code directly from Dual/Quad SPI

(XIP) and storing voice, text and data. All devices are offered in space-saving packages.

The W25R256JV support the standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), Dual/Quad I/O SPI: Serial Clock,

Chip Select, Serial Data I/O0 (DI), I/O1 (DO), I/O2, and I/O3. SPI clock frequencies of up to 133MHz are

supported allowing equivalent clock rates of 266MHz (133MHz x 2) for Dual I/O and 532MHz (133MHz x

4) for Quad I/O when using the Fast Read Dual/Quad I/O instructions. These transfer rates can

outperform standard Asynchronous 8 and 16-bit Parallel Flash memories.

The device supports JEDEC standard manufacturer and device ID and SFDP Register, a 64-bit Unique

Serial Number and three 256-bytes Security Registers.

The W25R series is also equipped with an enhanced authentication security feature by Replay Protection

Monotonic Counter (RPMC). It provides a high level secured communication between the flash device and

the controller to reduce the system vulnerabilities to hardware attacks
