What this NOR Flash does
The Cypress S25FL256SDPMFIG03 is a 256 Mbit NOR Flash from the FL-S series, organized as 32M x 8 bits. It uses a SPI Quad I/O interface that can shift data on four lines simultaneously, pushing read throughput well beyond a standard single-bit SPI bus at the same 66 MHz clock. This makes it a natural fit for code-shadowing in embedded systems where the MCU executes directly from external Flash, or for storing configuration tables and firmware images that need fast random access.
