GD25Q128ESIGR FLASH-NOR Memory IC 128Mbit SPI-Quad I/O 133 MHz 7 ns
The GD25Q128ESIGR is a high-performance 128M-bit SPI NOR Flash memory chip from GigaDevice, designed for applications requiring fast read speeds, high reliability, and flexible interfacing. Operating on a single 2.7V to 3.6V power supply, it supports the standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) with clock frequencies up to 133MHz, and achieves an impressive 532MHz (133MHz x 4) effective clock rate in Quad I/O (QIO) mode. This device features a uniform 4KB sector and 64KB block architecture, enabling efficient code execution in place (XIP) and offering a guaranteed endurance of 100,000 program/erase cycles per sector with data retention of up to 20 years. Its advanced design integrates security features and low-power modes, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of embedded systems.
This memory chip is organized as 16,777,216 bits (128M-bit), configured as 256 sectors of 4KB each or 2,048 blocks of 64KB each, providing flexible erase and programming granularity. It supports the complete SPI command set, including standard, Dual-Output, Dual-Input/Output (DIO), Quad-Output, and Quad-Input/Output (QIO) modes for maximum performance flexibility. Key electrical specifications include a typical active read current of 15mA (at 133MHz) and a deep power-down current of as low as 1µA, optimizing power consumption.
