256 Mbit NOR flash for automotive ECU code storage
It uses a SPI interface with Quad I/O and QPI support, clocked at 133 MHz.
The AEC-Q100 automotive grade is the headline qualification here. It means the part has passed stress tests for temperature cycling, moisture resistance, and high-temperature operating life typical of under-hood and chassis-domain electronics. For a BOM destined for automotive production, this qualification eliminates the need for additional PPAP-level re-qualification at the module level.
133 MHz Quad-SPI — firmware-update throughput
At 133 MHz with Quad I/O, the effective read throughput approaches 66 MB/s. That matters for OTA firmware updates or fast boot loading in an automotive gateway or ADAS module. The QPI mode reduces command overhead for random reads. Both modes are standard SPI variants, so the interface is straightforward to wire to any MCU with a Quad-SPI controller.
Package and footprint — reflow-ready
The 16-SOIC (0.295", 7.50 mm width) is a JEDEC-standard wide-body SOIC. The lead pitch is 1.27 mm, which is pick-and-place friendly and does not require via-in-pad or micro-via fanout. The footprint matches any standard SOIC-16 wide land pattern.
