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 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.
