128 Mbit SPI NOR Flash with Quad I/O at 1.7 V
The Cypress S25FS128SAGNFI003 is a 128 Mbit (16M x 8) SPI NOR Flash memory from the FS-S series, supporting both Quad I/O and QPI interfaces at a clock rate of 133 MHz.
133 MHz read throughput and interface flexibility
The 133 MHz clock rate delivers a sustained read throughput of up to 532 Mbps in Quad I/O mode (four data lines). The QPI mode reduces command overhead by using the SPI bus for both address and data, which improves random-read efficiency. For a firmware-bringup engineer, the first-power checklist includes verifying the SPI mode (Mode 0 or Mode 3) matches the host controller and that the 1.7 V supply is within tolerance before enabling quad reads.
For a BOM cost engineer, this avoids single-source risk flags and LTB surcharges.
