w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 5 - revision d 1. general description the w25q40bl (4m-bit) serial flash memory provides a storage solution for systems with limited space, pins and power. the 25q 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. the device operates on a single 2.3v to 3.6v power supply with current consumption as low as 4ma active and 1a for power-down. all devices are offered in space-saving packages. the w25q40bl array is organized into 2,048 programmable pages of 256-bytes each. up to 256 bytes can be programmed at a time. pages can be erased in groups of 16 (4kb sector erase), groups of 128 (32kb block erase), groups of 256 (64kb block erase) or the entire chip (chip erase). the w25q40bl has 128 erasable sectors and 8 erasable blocks respectively. the small 4kb sectors allow for greater flexibility in applications that require data and parameter storage. (see figure 2.) the w25q40bl supports the standard serial peripheral interface (spi), and a high performance dual/quad output as well as dual/quad i/o spi: serial clock, chip select, serial data i/o0 (di), i/o1 (do), i/o2 (/wp), and i/o3 (/hold). spi clock frequencies of up to 80mhz are supported allowing equivalent clock rates of 160mhz (80mhz x 2) for dual i/o and 320mhz (80mhz 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 continuous read mode allows for efficient memory access with as few as 8-clocks of instruction-overhead to read a 24-bit address, allowing true xip (execute in place) operation. a hold pin, write protect pin and programmable write protection, with top, bottom or complement array control, provide further control flexibility. additionally, the device supports jedec standard manufacturer and device identification with a 64-bit unique serial number. 2. features ? family of spiflash memories ? w25q40bl: 4m-bit/512k-byte (524,288) ? 256-byte per programmable page ? standard spi: clk, /cs, di, do, /wp, /hold ? dual spi: clk, /cs, io 0 , io 1 , /wp, /hold ? quad spi: clk, /cs, io 0 , io 1 , io 2 , io 3 ? highest performance serial flash ? 80mhz dual/quad spi clocks ? 160/320mhz equivalent dual/quad spi ? 40mb/s continuous data transfer rate ? up to 5x that of ordinary serial flash ? more than 100,000 erase/program cycles ? more than 20-year data retention ? efficient ?continuous read mode? ? low instruction overhead ? continuous read with 8/16/32/64-byte wrap ? as few as 8 clocks to address memory ? allows true xip (execute in place) operation ? outperforms x16 parallel flash ? low power, wide temperature range ? single 2.3 to 3.6v supply ? 4ma active current, <1a power-down current ? -40c to +85c operating range ? flexible architecture with 4kb sectors ? uniform sector erase (4k-bytes) ? uniform block erase (32k and 64k-bytes) ? program one to 256 bytes ? erase/program suspend & resume ? advanced security features ? software and hardware write-protect ? top/bottom, 4kb complement array protection ? lock-down and otp array protection ? 64-bit unique serial number for each device ? discoverable parameters (sfdp) register ? 3x256-byte security registers with otp locks ? volatile & non-volatile status register bits ? space efficient packaging ? 8-pin soic / vsop / pdip ? 8-pad wson 6x5-mm, uson 2x3-mm ? contact winbond for kgd and other options

w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 7 - revision d 4. pin descriptions 4.1 chip select (/cs) the spi chip select (/cs) pin enables and disables device operation. when /cs is high the device is deselected and the serial data output (do, or io0, io1, io2, io3) pins are at high impedance. when deselected, the devices power consumption will be at standby levels unless an internal erase, program or write status register cycle is in progress. when /cs is brought low the device will be selected, power consumption will increase to active levels and instructions can be written to and data read from the device. after power-up, /cs must transition from high to low before a new instruction will be accepted. the /cs input must track the vcc supply level at power-up (see ?write protection? and figure 38). if needed a pull- up resister on /cs can be used to accomplish this. 4.2 serial data input, output and ios (di, do and io0, io1, io2, io3) the w25q40bl supports standard spi, dual spi and quad spi operation. standard spi instructions use the unidirectional di (input) pin to serially write in structions, addresses or data to the device on the rising edge of the serial clock (clk) input pin. standard spi also uses the unidirectional do (output) to read data or status from the device on the falling edge of clk. dual and quad spi instructions use the bidirectional io pins to serially write instructions, addresses or data to the device on the rising edge of clk and read data or status from the device on the falling edge of clk. quad spi instructions require the non-volatile quad enable bit (qe) in status register-2 to be set. when qe=1, the /wp pin becomes io2 and /hold pin becomes io3. 4.3 write protect (/wp) the write protect (/wp) pin can be used to prevent the status register from being written. used in conjunction with the status register?s block protect (cmp, sec, tb, bp2, bp1 and bp0) bits and status register protect (srp) bits, a portion as small as a 4kb sector or the entire memory array can be hardware protected. the /wp pin is active low. when the qe bit of status register-2 is set for quad i/o, the /wp pin function is not available since this pin is used for io2. see figure 1a & 1b for the pin configuration of quad i/o operation. 4.4 hold (/hold) the /hold pin allows the device to be paused while it is actively selected. when /hold is brought low, while /cs is low, the do pin will be at high impedance and signals on the di and clk pins will be ignored (don?t care). when /hold is brought high, device operation can resume. the /hold function can be useful when multiple devices are sharing the same spi signals. the /hold pin is active low. when the qe bit of status register-2 is set for quad i/o, the /hold pin function is not available since this pin is used for io3. see figure 1a and 1b for the pin configuration of quad i/o operation. 4.5 serial clock (clk) the spi serial clock input (clk) pin provides the timing for serial input and output operations.

w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 9 - revision d 6. functional description 6.1 spi operations 6.1.1 standard spi instructions the w25q40bl is accessed through an spi compatible bus consisting of four signals: serial clock (clk), chip select (/cs), serial data input (di) and serial data output (do). standard spi instructions use the di input pin to serially write instructions, addresses or data to the device on the rising edge of clk. the do output pin is used to read data or status from the device on the falling edge clk. spi bus operation mode 0 (0,0) and 3 (1,1) are supported. the primary difference between mode 0 and mode 3 concerns the normal state of the clk signal when the spi bus master is in standby and data is not being transferred to the serial flash. for mode 0, the clk signal is normally low on the falling and rising edges of /cs. for mode 3, the clk signal is normally high on the falling and rising edges of /cs. 6.1.2 dual spi instructions the w25q40bl supports dual spi operation when using the ?fast read dual output (3bh)? and ?fast read dual i/o (bbh)? instructions. these instructions allow data to be transferred to or from the device at two to three times the rate of ordinary serial flash devices. the dual spi read instructions are ideal for quickly downloading code to ram upon power-up (code-shadowing) or for executing non-speed-critical code directly from the spi bus (xip). when using dual spi instructions, the di and do pins become bidirectional i/o pins: io0 and io1. 6.1.3 quad spi instructions the w25q40bl supports quad spi operation when using the ?fast read quad output (6bh)?, ?fast read quad i/o (ebh)?, ?word read quad i/o (e7h)? and ?octal word read quad i/o (e3h)? instructions. these instructions allow data to be transferred to or from the device six to eight times the rate of ordinary serial flash. the quad read instructions offer a significant improvement in continuous and random access transfer rates allowing fast code-shadowing to ram or execution directly from the spi bus (xip). when using quad spi instructions the di and do pi ns become bidirectional io0 and io1, and the /wp and /hold pins become io2 and io3 respectively. quad spi instructions require the non-volatile quad enable bit (qe) in status register-2 to be set. 6.1.4 hold function for standard spi and dual spi operations, the /hold signal allows the w25q40bl operation to be paused while it is actively selected (when /cs is low). the /hold function may be useful in cases where the spi data and clock signals are shared with other devices. for example, consider if the page buffer was only partially written when a priority interrupt requires use of the spi bus. in this case the /hold function can save the state of the instruction and the data in the buffer so programming can resume where it left off once the bus is available again. the /h old function is only available for standard spi and dual spi operation, not during quad spi. to initiate a /hold condition, the device must be selected with /cs low. a /hold condition will activate on the falling edge of the /hold signal if the clk signal is already low. if the clk is not already low the /hold condition will activate after the next falling edge of clk. the /hold condition will terminate on the rising edge of the /hold signal if the clk signal is already low. if the clk is not already low the /hold
w25q40bl condition will terminate after the next falling edge of clk. during a /hold condition, the serial data output (do) is high impedance, and serial data input (di) and serial clock (clk) are ignored. the chip select (/cs) signal should be kept active low for the full duration of the /hold operation to avoid resetting the internal logic state of the device. - 10 - 6.2 write protection applications that use non-volatile memory must take into consideration the possibility of noise and other adverse system conditions that may compromise data integrity. to address this concern, the w25q40bl provides several means to protect the data from inadvertent writes. 6.2.1 write protect features ? device resets when vcc is below threshold ? time delay write disable after power-up ? write enable/disable instructions and automatic write disable after erase or program ? software and hardware (/wp pin) write protection using status register ? write protection using power-down instruction ? lock down write protection until next power-up ? one time program (otp) write protection * * note: this feature is available upon special order. please contact winbond for details. upon power-up or at power-down, the w25q40bl will maintain a reset condition while vcc is below the threshold value of v wi , (see power-up timing and voltage levels and figure 38). while reset, all operations are disabled and no instructions are recognized. during power-up and after the vcc voltage exceeds v wi , all program and erase related instructions are further disabled for a time delay of t puw . this includes the write enable, page program, sector erase, block erase, chip erase and the write status register instructions. note that the chip select pin (/cs) must track the vcc supply level at power-up until the vcc-min level and t vsl time delay is reached. if needed a pull-up resister on /cs can be used to accomplish this. after power-up the device is automatically placed in a write-disabled state with the status register write enable latch (wel) set to a 0. a write enable instruction must be issued before a page program, sector erase, block erase, chip erase or write status register instruction will be accepted. after completing a program, erase or write instruction the write enable latch (wel) is automatically cleared to a write- disabled state of 0. software controlled write protection is facilitated usi ng the write status register instruction and setting the status register protect (srp0, srp1) and block protect (cmp, sec,tb, bp2, bp1 and bp0) bits. these settings allow a portion as small as 4kb sector or the entire memory array to be configured as read only. used in conjunction with the write protect (/wp) pin, changes to the status register can be enabled or disabled under hardware control. see status register section for further information. additionally, the power-down instruction offers an extra level of write protection as all instructions are ignored except for the release power-down instruction.
w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 11 - revision d 7. control and status registers the read status register-1 and status register-2 instructions can be used to provide status on the availability of the flash memory array, if the device is write enabled or disabled, the state of write protection, quad spi setting, security register lock status and erase/program suspend status. the write status register instruction can be used to configure the device write protection features, quad spi setting and security register otp lock. write access to the status register is controlled by the state of the non- volatile status register protect bits (srp0, srp1), the write enable instruction, and during standard/dual spi operations, the /wp pin. 7.1 status register 7.1.1 busy busy is a read only bit in the status register (s0) that is set to a 1 state when the device is executing a page program, quad page program, sector erase, block erase, chip erase, write status register or erase/program security register instruction. during this time the device will ignore further instructions except for the read status register and erase/program suspend instruction (see t w , t pp , t se , t be , and t ce in ac characteristics). when the program, erase or write status/security register instruction has completed, the busy bit will be cleared to a 0 state indicating the device is ready for further instructions. 7.1.2 write enable latch (wel) write enable latch (wel) is a read only bit in the status register (s1) that is set to 1 after executing a write enable instruction. the wel status bit is cleared to 0 when the device is write disabled. a write disable state occurs upon power-up or after any of the following instructions: write disable, page program, quad page program, sector erase, block erase, chip erase, write status register, erase security register and program security register. 7.1.3 block protect bits (bp2, bp1, bp0) the block protect bits (bp2, bp1, bp0) are non-volatile read/write bits in the status register (s4, s3, and s2) that provide write protection control and status. block protect bits can be set using the write status register instruction (see t w in ac characteristics). all, none or a portion of the memory array can be protected from program and erase instructions (see status register memory protection table). the factory default setting for the block protection bits is 0, none of the array protected. 7.1.4 top/bottom block protect (tb) the non-volatile top/bottom bit (tb) controls if the block protect bits (bp2, bp1, bp0) protect from the top (tb=0) or the bottom (tb=1) of the array as shown in the status register memory protection table. the factory default setting is tb=0. the tb bit can be set with the write status register instruction depending on the state of the srp0, srp1 and wel bits. 7.1.5 sector/block pr otect (sec) the non-volatile sector/block protect bit (sec) controls if the block protect bits (bp2, bp1, bp0) protect either 4kb sectors (sec=1) or 64kb blocks (sec=0) in the top (tb=0) or the bottom (tb=1) of the array as shown in the status register memory protection table. the default setting is sec=0.
w25q40bl - 12 - 7.1.6 complement protect (cmp) the complement protect bit (cmp) is a non-volatile read/write bit in the status register (s14). it is used in conjunction with sec, tb, bp2, bp1 and bp0 bits to provide more flexibility for the array protection. once cmp is set to 1, previous array protection set by sec, tb, bp2, bp1 and bp0 will be reversed. for instance, when cmp=0, a top 4kb sector can be protected while the rest of the array is not; when cmp=1, the top 4kb sector will become unprotected while the rest of the array become read-only. please refer to the status register memory protection table for details. the default setting is cmp=0. 7.1.7 status register pr otect (srp1, srp0) the status register protect bits (srp1 and srp0) are non-volatile read/write bits in the status register (s8 and s7). the srp bits control the method of write protection: software protection, hardware protection, power supply lock-down or one time programmable (otp) protection. srp1 srp0 /wp status register description 0 0 x software protection /wp pin has no control. the status register can be written to after a write enable instruction, wel=1.

w25q40bl - 16 - 7.2 instructions the instruction set of the w25q40bl consists of thirty five basic instructions that are fully controlled through the spi bus (see instruction set table1-3). instructions are initiated with the falling edge of chip select (/cs). the first byte of data clocked into the di input provides the instruction code. data on the di input is sampled on the rising edge of clock with most significant bit (msb) first. instructions vary in length from a single byte to several bytes and may be followed by address bytes, data bytes, dummy bytes (don?t care), and in some cases, a combination. instructions are completed with the rising edge of edge /cs. clock relative timing diagrams for each instruction are included in figures 4 through 37. all read instructions can be completed after any clocked bit. however, all instructions that write, program or erase must complete on a byte boundary (/cs driven high after a full 8-bits have been clocked) otherwise the instruction will be ignored. this feature further protects the device from inadvertent writes. additionally, while the memory is being programmed or erased, or when the status register is being written, all instructions except for read status register will be ignored until the program or erase cycle has completed. 7.2.1 manufacturer and device identification manufacturer id (mf7-mf0) winbond serial flash efh device id (id7-id0) (id15-id0) instruction abh, 90h, 92h, 94h 9fh w25q40bl 12h 4013h

w25q40bl - 20 - 7.2.5 write enable (06h) the write enable instruction (figure 4) sets the write enable latch (wel) bit in the status register to a 1. the wel bit must be set prior to every page program, quad page program, sector erase, block erase, chip erase, write status register and erase/program security registers instruction. the write enable instruction is entered by driving /cs low, shifting the instruction code ?06h? into the data input (di) pin on the rising edge of clk, and then driving /cs high. figure 4. write enable instruction sequence diagram 7.2.6 write enable for volatile status register (50h) the non-volatile status register bits described in section 7.1 can also be written to as volatile bits. this gives more flexibility to change the system configuration and memory protection schemes quickly without waiting for the typical non-volatile bit write cycles or affecting the endurance of the status register non- volatile bits. to write the volatile values into the st atus register bits, the write enable for volatile status register (50h) instruction must be issued prior to a write status register (01h) instruction. write enable for volatile status register instruction (figure 5) will not set the write enable latch (wel) bit, it is only valid for the write status register instruction to change the volatile status register bit values. instruction (50h) figure 5. write enable for volatile status register instruction sequence diagram

w25q40bl - 22 - 7.2.8 read status register-1 (05h) a nd read status register-2 (35h) the read status register instructions allow the 8-bit status registers to be read. the instruction is entered by driving /cs low and shifting the instruction code ?05h? for status register-1 or ?35h? for status register-2 into the di pin on the rising edge of clk. the status register bits are then shifted out on the do pin at the falling edge of clk with most significant bit (msb) first as shown in figure 7. the status register bits are shown in figure 3a and 3b and include the busy, wel, bp2-bp0, tb, sec, srp0, srp1, qe, lb[3:1], cmp and sus bits (see status register section earlier in this datasheet). the read status register instruction may be used at any time, even while a program, erase or write status register cycle is in progress. this allows the busy status bit to be checked to determine when the cycle is complete and if the device can accept another instruction. the status register can be read continuously, as shown in figure 7. the instruction is completed by driving /cs high. figure 7. read status register instruction sequence diagram 7.2.9 write status register (01h) the write status register instruction allows the stat us register to be written. only non-volatile status register bits srp0, sec, tb, bp2, bp1, bp0 (bits 7 th ru 2 of status register-1) and cmp, lb3, lb2, lb1, qe, srp1 (bits 14 thru 8 of status register-2 ) can be written to. all other status register bit locations are read-only and will not be affected by the write status register instruction. lb[3:1] are non- volatile otp bits, once it is set to 1, it can not be cleared to 0. the status register bits are shown in figure 3 and described in 10.1. to write non-volatile status register bits, a standard write enable (06h) instruction must previously have been executed for the device to accept the write status register instruction (status register bit wel must equal 1). once write enabled, the instruction is entered by driving /cs low, sending the instruction code ?01h?, and then writing the status register data byte as illustrated in figure 8. to write volatile status register bits, a write enable for volatile status register (50h) instruction must have been executed prior to the write status register instruction (status register bit wel remains 0). however, srp1 and lb3, lb2, lb1 can not be changed from ?1? to ?0? because of the otp protection for these bits. upon power off, the volatile status regist er bit values will be lost, and the non-volatile status register bit values will be restored when power on again.
w25q40bl to complete the write status register instruction, the /cs pin must be driven high after the eighth or sixteenth bit of data that is clocked in. if this is not done the write status register instruction will not be executed. if /cs is driven high after the eighth clock (compatible with the 25x series) the cmp and qe bits will be cleared to 0. during non-volatile status register write operation (06h combined with 01h), after /cs is driven high, the self-timed write status register cycle will commence for a time duration of t w (see ac characteristics). while the write status register cycle is in progress, the read status register instruction may still be accessed to check the status of the busy bit. the busy bit is a 1 during the write status register cycle and a 0 when the cycle is finished and ready to accept other instructions again. after the write status register cycle has finished, the write enable latch (wel) bit in the status register will be cleared to 0. during volatile status register write operation (50h combined with 01h), after /cs is driven high, the status register bits will be refreshed to the new values within the time period of t shsl2 (see ac characteristics). busy bit will remain 0 during the status register bit refresh period. please refer to 10.1 for detailed status register bit de scriptions. factory default for all status register bits are 0. 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 status register 1 status register 2 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 status register 1 status register 2 status register 2 figure 8. write status register instruction sequence diagram publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 23 - revision d
w25q40bl - 24 - 7.2.10 read data (03h) the read data instruction allows one or more data bytes to be sequentially read from the memory. the instruction is initiated by driving the /cs pin low and then shifting the instruction code ?03h? followed by a 24-bit address (a23-a0) into the di pin. the code and address bits are latched on the rising edge of the clk pin. after the address is received, the data byte of the addressed memory location will be shifted out on the do pin at the falling edge of clk with most significant bit (msb) first. the address is automatically incremented to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out allowing for a continuous stream of data. this means that the entire memory can be accessed with a single instruction as long as the clock continues. the instruction is completed by driving /cs high. the read data instruction sequence is shown in figure 9. if a read data instruction is issued while an erase, program or write cycle is in process (busy=1) the instruction is ignored and will not have any effects on the current cycle. the read data instruction allows clock rates from d.c. to a maximum of f r (see ac electrical characteristics). figure 9. read data instruction sequence diagram
w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 25 - revision d 7.2.11 fast read (0bh) the fast read instruction is similar to the read data instruction except that it can operate at the highest possible frequency of f r (see ac electrical characteristics). this is accomplished by adding eight ?dummy? clocks after the 24-bit address as shown in figure 10. the dummy clocks allow the devices internal circuits additional time for setting up the in itial address. during the dummy clocks the data value on the do pin is a ?don?t care?. figure 10. fast read instruction sequence diagram
w25q40bl - 26 - 7.2.12 fast read dual output (3bh) the fast read dual output (3bh) instruction is similar to the standard fast read (0bh) instruction except that data is output on two pins; io 0 and io 1 . this allows data to be transferred from the w25q40bl at twice the rate of standard spi devices. the fast read dual output instruction is ideal for quickly downloading code from flash to ram upon power-up or for applications that cache code-segments to ram for execution. similar to the fast read instruction, the fast r ead dual output instruction can operate at the highest possible frequency of f r (see ac electrical characteristics). this is accomplished by adding eight ?dummy? clocks after the 24-bit address as shown in figure 11. the dummy clocks allow the device's internal circuits additional time for setting up the init ial address. the input data during the dummy clocks is ?don?t care?. however, the io 0 pin should be high-impedance prior to the falling edge of the first data out clock. figure 11. fast read dual output instruction sequence diagram
w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 27 - revision d 7.2.13 fast read quad output (6bh) the fast read quad output (6bh) instruction is similar to the fast read dual output (3bh) instruction except that data is output on four pins, io 0 , io 1 , io 2 , and io 3 . a quad enable of status register-2 must be executed before the device will accept the fast read quad output instruction (status register bit qe must equal 1). the fast read quad output instruction allows data to be transferred from the w25q40bl at four times the rate of standard spi devices. the fast read quad output instruction can operate at the highest possible frequency of f r (see ac electrical characteristics). this is accomplished by adding eight ?dummy? clocks after the 24-bit address as shown in figure 12. the dummy clocks allow the dev ice's internal circuits additional time for setting up the initial address. the input data during the dummy clocks is ?don?t care?. however, the io pins should be high-impedance prior to the falling edge of the first data out clock. figure 12. fast read quad output instruction sequence diagram
w25q40bl - 28 - 7.2.14 fast read dual i/o (bbh) the fast read dual i/o (bbh) instruction allows for improved random access while maintaining two io pins, io 0 and io 1 . it is similar to the fast read dual output (3bh) instruction but with the capab ility to input the address bits (a23-0) two bits per clock. this reduced instruction overhead may allow for code execution (xip) directly from the dual spi in some applications. fast read dual i/o with ?continuous read mode? the fast read dual i/o instruction can further reduce instruction overhead through setting the ?continuous read mode? bits (m7-0) after the input address bits (a23-0), as shown in figure 13a. the upper nibble of the (m7-4) controls the length of the next fast read dual i/o instruction through the inclusion or exclusion of the first byte instruction c ode. the lower nibble bits of the (m3-0) are don?t care (?x?). however, the io pins should be high-impedance prior to the falling edge of the first data out clock. if the ?continuous read mode? bits m5-4 = (1,0), then the next fast read dual i/o instruction (after /cs is raised and then lowered) does not require the bbh instruction code, as shown in figure 13b. this reduces the instruction sequence by eight clocks and allows the read address to be immediately entered after /cs is asserted low. if the ?continuous read mode? bits m5-4 do not equal to (1,0), the next instruction (after /cs is raised and then lowered) requires the first byte instruction code, thus returning to normal operation. a ?continuous read mode? reset instruction can also be used to reset (m7-0) before issuing normal instructions (see 7.2.20 for detail descriptions). figure 13a. fast read dual i/o instruction sequence (initial instruction or previous m5-4 10)

w25q40bl - 32 - 7.2.16 word read quad i/o (e7h) the word read quad i/o (e7h) instruction is similar to the fast read quad i/o (ebh) instruction except that the lowest address bit (a0) must equal 0 and only two dummy clock are required prior to the data output. the quad i/o dramatically reduces instruction overhead allowing faster random access for code execution (xip) directly from the quad spi. the quad e nable bit (qe) of status register-2 must be set to enable the word read quad i/o instruction. word read quad i/o with ?continuous read mode? the word read quad i/o instruction can further reduce instruction overhead through setting the ?continuous read mode? bits (m7-0) after the input address bits (a23-0), as shown in figure 15a. the upper nibble of the (m7-4) controls the length of the next fast read quad i/o instruction through the inclusion or exclusion of the first byte instruction c ode. the lower nibble bits of the (m3-0) are don?t care (?x?). however, the io pins should be high-impedance prior to the falling edge of the first data out clock. if the ?continuous read mode? bits m5-4 = (1,0), then the next fast read quad i/o instruction (after /cs is raised and then lowered) does not require the e7h instruction code, as shown in figure 15b. this reduces the instruction sequence by eight clocks and allows the read address to be immediately entered after /cs is asserted low. if the ?continuous read mode? bits m5-4 do not equal to (1,0), the next instruction (after /cs is raised and then lowered) requires the first byte instruction code, thus returning to normal operation. a ?continuous read mode? reset instruction can also be used to reset (m7-0) before issuing normal instructions (see 7.2.20 for detail descriptions). instruction (e7h) byte 1 byte 2 byte 3 4040 40 5151 51 6262 62 7373 73 instruction (e7h) byte 1 byte 2 byte 3 404040 40 4040 515151 51 5151 626262 62 6262 737373 73 7373 figure 15a. word read quad i/o instruction sequence (initial instruction or previous m5-4 10)

w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 37 - revision d 7.2.19 continuous read mode bits (m7-0) the ?continuous read mode? bits are used in conjunction with ?fast read dual i/o?, ?fast read quad i/o?, ?word read quad i/o? and ?octal word read quad i/o? instructions to provide the highest random flash memory access rate with minimum spi instruction overhead, thus allow true xip (execute in place) to be performed on serial flash devices. m7-0 need to be set by the dual/quad i/o read instructions. m5-4 are used to control whether the 8-bit spi instruction code (bbh, ebh, e7h or e3h) is needed or not for the next command. when m5-4 = (1,0), the next command will be treated same as the current dual/quad i/o read command without needing the 8-bit instruction code; when m5-4 do not equal to (1,0), the device returns to normal spi mode, all commands can be accepted. m7-6 and m3-0 are reserved bits for future use, either 0 or 1 values can be used. 7.2.20 continuous read mode reset (ffh or ffffh) continuous read mode reset instruction can be used to set m4 = 1, thus the device will release the continuous read mode and return to normal spi operation, as shown in figure 18. /cs mode bit reset for dual i/o mode 3 mode 0 0123456789101112131415 mode 3 mode 0 mode bit reset for quad i/o ffh ffh don?t care don?t care don?t care io 3 clk io 0 io 1 io 2 /cs mode bit reset for dual i/o mode 3 mode 0 0123456789101112131415 mode 3 mode 0 mode bit reset for quad i/o ffh ffh don?t care don?t care don?t care io 3 clk io 0 io 1 io 2 figure 18. continuous read mode reset for fast read dual/quad i/o since w25q40bl does not have a hardware reset pin, so if the controller resets while w25q40bl is set to continuous mode read, the w25q40bl will not recognize any initial standard spi instructions from the controller. to address this possibility, it is recommended to issue a continuous read mode reset instruction as the first instruction after a system reset. doing so will release the device from the continuous read mode and allow standard spi instructions to be recognized. to reset ?continuous read mode? during quad i/o operation, only eight clocks are needed. the instruction is ?ffh?. to reset ?continuous read mode? during dual i/o operation, sixteen clocks are needed to shift in instruction ?ffffh?.
w25q40bl - 38 - 7.2.21 page program (02h) the page program instruction allows from one byte to 256 bytes (a page) of data to be programmed at previously erased (ffh) memory locations. a write enable instruction must be executed before the device will accept the page program instruction (status register bit wel= 1). the instruction is initiated by driving the /cs pin low then shifting the instruction code ?02h? followed by a 24-bit address (a23-a0) and at least one data byte, into the di pin. the /cs pin must be held low for the entire length of the instruction while data is being sent to the device. the page program instruction sequence is shown in figure 19. if an entire 256 byte page is to be programmed, the last address byte (the 8 least significant address bits) should be set to 0. if the last address byte is not zero, and the number of clocks exceed the remaining page length, the addressing will wrap to the beginning of the page. in some cases, less than 256 bytes (a partial page) can be programmed without having any effect on other bytes within the same page. one condition to perform a partial page program is that the number of clocks can not exceed the remaining page length. if more than 256 bytes are sent to the device the addressing will wrap to the beginning of the page and overwrite previously sent data. as with the write and erase instructions, the /cs pin must be driven high after the eighth bit of the last byte has been latched. if this is not done the page program instruction will not be executed. after /cs is driven high, the self-timed page program instruction will commence for a time duration of tpp (see ac characteristics). while the page program cycle is in progress, the read status register instruction may still be accessed for checking the status of the busy bit. the busy bit is a 1 during the page program cycle and becomes a 0 when the cycle is finished and the device is ready to accept other instructions again. after the page program cycle has finished the write enable latch (wel) bit in the status register is cleared to 0. the page program instruction will not be executed if the addressed page is protected by the block protect (cmp, sec, tb, bp2, bp1, and bp0) bits. figure 19. page program instruction sequence diagram
w25q40bl publication release date: may 04, 2012 - 39 - revision d 7.2.22 quad input page program (32h) the quad page program instruction allows up to 256 bytes of data to be programmed at previously erased (ffh) memory locations using four pins: io 0 , io 1 , io 2 , and io 3 . the quad page program can improve performance for prom programmer and applications that have slow clock speeds <5mhz. systems with faster clock speed will not realize much benefit for the quad page program instruction since the inherent page program time is much greater than the time it take to clock-in the data. to use quad page program the quad enable in status register-2 must be set (qe=1). a write enable instruction must be executed before the device will accept the quad page program instruction (status register-1, wel=1). the instruction is initiated by driving the /cs pin low then shifting the instruction code ?32h? followed by a 24-bit address (a23-a0) and at least one data byte, into the io pins. the /cs pin must be held low for the entire length of the instruction while data is being sent to the device. all other functions of quad page program are identical to standard page program. the quad page program instruction sequence is shown in figure 20. figure 20. quad input page program instruction sequence diagram
w25q40bl - 40 - 7.2.23 sector erase (20h) the sector erase instruction sets all memory within a specified sector (4k-bytes) to the erased state of all 1s (ffh). a write enable instruction must be executed before the device will accept the sector erase instruction (status register bit wel must equal 1). the instruction is initiated by driving the /cs pin low and shifting the instruction code ?20h? followed a 24-bit sector address (a23-a0) (see figure 2). the sector erase instruction sequence is shown in figure 21. the /cs pin must be driven high after the eighth bit of the last byte has been latched. if this is not done the sector erase instruction will not be executed. after /cs is driven high, the self-timed sector erase instruction will commence for a time duration of t se (see ac characteristics). while the sector erase cycle is in progress, the read status register instruction may still be accessed for checking the status of the busy bit. the busy bit is a 1 during the sector erase cycle and becomes a 0 when the cycle is finished and the device is ready to accept other instructions again. after the sector erase cycle has finished the write enable latch (wel) bit in the status register is cleared to 0. the sector erase instruction will not be executed if the addressed page is protected by the block protect (cmp, sec, tb, bp2, bp1, and bp0) bits (see status register memory protection table). figure 21. sector erase instruction sequence diagram
