Both devices support Double Transfer Rate (DTR) mode. While the Micron device supports DTR use with
all Read modes, Macronix only supports DTR use in the Fast DTR Read (1-1-1), Dual I/O DTR Read
( 2DTRD = 1-2-2), and Quad I/O DTR Read (4DTRD SPI = 1-4-4) modes (Table 2-2).

3. Package and Pinout
Both devices are available in 16-pin SOP and 24-BGA packages with similar footprints. Pinout definitions
are identical with the two exceptions shown in Table 3-2. Where Macronix has a NC/SIO3 pin, Micron
has either a HOLD#/DQ3 or a RESET#/DQ3 pin. If the Micron device has a HOLD# pin, but the HOLD#
function is not used, then the devices are pin compatible. Macronix does not support the VPP (10V Fast
Programming Voltage) function available on Micron’s W#/VPP/DQ2 pin. This function is normally only
used on external programmers to accelerate Program/Erase operations and is generally not used for
“in-circuit” programming.

4. Key Feature and Operational Differences
4-1 Status Register and Configuration Register Differences
Both devices use status and configuration registers to control device behavior and report status. The
registers and bits used are similar but not identical. Micron also has Non-Volatile registers not shown.
Both the Micron and Macronix devices use BP[3:0] bits to select the same memory areas for protection.
The N25Q00A Block Protection bits BP[3:0] are located in Status Register (bits 6 and [4:2]). The
Top/Bottom bit is located in Status Register bit 5 and selects whether block protection starts at the top or
bottom of memory. The BP[3:0] and Top/Bottom bits are nonvolatile and reprogrammable.
The MX66L1G45G Block Protection bits BP[3:0] are located in Status Register bits [5:2]. The top/bottom
starting point is controlled by the TB bit, which is located in Configuration Register bit 3. The default
setting of the TB bit starts block protection at the top of memory. If the ‘bottom’ starting point is selected,
it can never be returned to the ‘top’ starting point. The BP[3:0] bits are all nonvolatile and
reprogrammable. The TB bit is nonvolatile and one-time-programmable.

4-2 QPI Differences
Micron’s Quad I/O mode is entered by setting a bit in the Nonvolatile Configuration Register, which
remembers this mode after power cycles, or by setting a bit in the Enhanced Volatile Configuration
Register and is reset after a power cycle.
The MX66L1G45G requires an EQIO (35h) command to enter the equivalent QPI mode. This mode can
be terminated by a RSTQIO (F5h) command or by a power cycle or software reset.
4-3 XIP Differences
The XIP (eXecute In Place) feature (Macronix refers to this as Performance Enhance Mode) is only used
during Fast Read operations and eliminates the need to input read commands prior to entering an
address and reading data. This is an overhead reduction feature that increases data throughput. Both
devices offer this feature, but entry and exit methods are different. The MX66L1G45G enters XIP mode
whenever all four bits of the first and second dummy cycles of a FREAD instruction are not equal and will
exit XIP mode if any of the bits of the first and second dummy cycles are equal. Macronix only supports
XIP in Quad I/O (1-4-4) and QPI (4-4-4) modes. Micron supports XIP in all Fast Read I/O modes.
4-4 Individual Sector/Block Protection Differences
Both devices have the ability to protect individual 64KB sectors/blocks of memory. The methods used are
independent of the nonvolatile BP bit configuration in the Status Register. With the Micron flash, it is
possible to use both methods of write protection (BP bits and Individual Sector Protection) simultaneously,
and the protected area is the combination of the two. When using the Macronix flash, either BP bit
Protection or Individual Block Protection can be selected exclusively, with the default being the use of the
BP bits.
The N25Q00A has one Lock Register for each 64KB sector to control the sector’s program/erase
protection status. The protection can be turned on or off at any time unless the sector’s Lock Register
has been locked by the application. Once locked, its associated sector will remain in the protected or
unprotected state until the next power cycle or reset. All sectors not protected by the Status Register BP
configuration will be unprotected after power up and all Lock Registers will be unlocked.

Ver.1, Jan.20, 2014
Macronix Proprietary
APPLICATION NOTE
Comparing Micron N25Q00A with Macronix MX66L1G45G
The MX66L1G45G has one volatile protection register for each of the top sixteen 4KB sectors, bottom
sixteen 4KB sectors, and 2046 middle 64KB blocks of memory. These protection registers can only be
used after permanently disabling the Status Register BP protection bits. This is done by executing the
WPSEL instruction once. Please note that this irreversible and the individual sector/block protection
method will be permanently selected.
After permanently selecting the individual sector/block protection method for the MX66L1G45G, all
sectors and blocks will be locked by default on power up. Sectors/blocks must be unlocked before they
can be programmed or erased. Unlocking sectors/blocks can be done on an individual basis with the
SBULK (Single Block Unlock) command or on all sectors/blocks with the GBULK (Global Block Unlock)
command. Sectors and blocks can be relocked as necessary with the SBLK (Single Block Lock)
command or GBLK (Global Block Lock) command.
Since the smallest individual sector protection size in the N25Q00A is 64KB, if an application is currently
locking/unlocking the top and/or bottom 64KB sector(s), it will need to lock/unlock each of the 16 top
and/or bottom 4KB sectors in the MX66L1G45G for equivalent results.
4-5. Chip Read and Erase Differences
The Micron N25Q00A only supports the Die Erase function, which means users have to execute four Die
Erase Commands (once in each die) to finish a chip erase operation. In the meantime, The Macronix
MX66L1G45G device looks and works like a monolithic 1Gb die and only needs one CE command with
no address required.
Similarly, because Micron treats its four die solution as four independently addressable arrays, extra
steps may be required when using the Micron flash during Reads which are not required for the Macronix
flash. For example, per the Micron datasheet "After any READ command is executed, the device will
output data from the selected address in the die. After a die boundary is reached, the device will start
reading again from the beginning of the same 256Mb die. A complete device reading is completed by
executing READ four times.." Macronix has no such requirement: “the whole memory can be read out
with a single READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been
reached."

8. Summary
The Macronix MX66L1G45G and Micron N25Q00A have similar commands, functions, and features. The
devices are command compatible for basic read, program, and erase (4KB and 64KB) operations. The
devices are essentially pin compatible if the HOLD# function is not used. A more detailed analysis should
be done if “special” functions such as: XIP or Individual Sector Write Protection is used. If common
features are used in standard traditional modes, they may need only minimal software modification
primarily due to differences in register bit settings.
