2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MX25L1673E are 16,777,216 bit serial Flash memory, which is configured as 2,097,152 x 8 internally. When it
is in two or four I/O read mode, the structure becomes 8,388,608 bits x 2 or 4,194,304 bits x 4. The MX25L1673E
feature a serial peripheral interface and software protocol allowing operation on a simple 3-wire bus. The three bus
signals are a clock input (SCLK), a serial data input (SI), and a serial data output (SO). Serial access to the device
is enabled by CS# input.
When it is in two I/O read mode, the SI pin and SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin for address/dummy bits input
and data output. When it is in four I/O read mode, the SI pin, SO pin become SIO0 pin and SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin and
SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data Input/Output.
The MX25L1673E provides sequential read operation on whole chip.
After program/erase command is issued, auto program/ erase algorithms which program/ erase and verify the specified page or sector/block locations will be executed. Program command is executed on byte basis, or page (256
bytes) basis, and erase command is executes on sector (4K-byte), or block (64K-byte), or whole chip basis.
To provide user with ease of interface, a status register is included to indicate the status of the chip. The status read
command can be issued to detect completion status of a program or erase operation via WIP bit.
Advanced security features enhance the protection and security functions, please see security features section for
more details.
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode.
The MX25L1673E utilizes Macronix proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after
100,000 program and erase cycles.

6. DATA PROTECTION
During power transition, there may be some false system level signals which result in inadvertent erasure or programming. The device is designed to protect itself from these accidental write cycles.
The state machine will be reset as standby mode automatically during power up. In addition, the control register architecture of the device constrains that the memory contents can only be changed after specific command sequences have completed successfully.
In the following, there are several features to protect the system from the accidental write cycles during VCC powerup and power-down or from system noise.
• Valid command length checking: The command length will be checked whether it is at byte base and completed
on byte boundary.
• Write Enable (WREN) command: WREN command is required to set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL) before
other command to change data. The WEL bit will return to reset stage under following situation:
- Power-up
- Write Disable (WRDI) command completion
- Write Status Register (WRSR) command completion
- Page Program (PP, 4PP) command completion
- Sector Erase (SE) command completion
- Block Erase (BE) command completion
- Chip Erase (CE) command completion
• Deep Power Down Mode: By entering deep power down mode, the flash device also is under protected from
writing all commands except Release from deep power down mode command (RDP) and Read Electronic Signature command (RES).
• Advanced Security Features: there are some protection and securuity features which protect content from inadvertent write and hostile access.
I. Block lock protection
- The Software Protected Mode (SPM) use (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits to allow part of memory to be protected
as read only. The proected area definition is shown as table of "Protected Area Sizes", the protected areas are
more flexible which may protect various area by setting value of BP0-BP3 bits.
Please refer to table of "protected area sizes".

II. Additional 512-bit secured OTP for unique identifier: to provide 512-bit one-time program area for setting device unique serial number - Which may be set by factory or system customer. Please refer to "Table 3. 512-bit
Secured OTP Definition"
- Security register bit 0 indicates whether the chip is locked by factory or not.
- To program the 512-bit secured OTP by entering 512-bit secured OTP mode (with ENSO command), and going
through normal program procedure, and then exiting 512-bit secured OTP mode by writing EXSO command.
- Customer may lock-down the customer lockable secured OTP by writing WRSCUR(write security register) command to set customer lock-down bit1 as "1". Please refer to table of "security register definition" for security register bit definition and table of "512-bit secured OTP definition" for address range definition.
- Note: Once lock-down whatever by factory or customer, it cannot be changed any more. While in 512-bit secured
OTP mode, array access is not allowed.

8. DEVICE OPERATION
1. Before a command is issued, status register should be checked to ensure device is ready for the intended operation.
2. When incorrect command is inputted to this LSI, this LSI becomes standby mode and keeps the standby mode
until next CS# falling edge. In standby mode, SO pin of this LSI should be High-Z.
3. When correct command is inputted to this LSI, this LSI becomes active mode and keeps the active mode until
next CS# rising edge.
4. For standard single data rate serial mode, input data is latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock(SCLK) and
data shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK. The difference of Serial mode 0 and mode 3 is shown as "Figure 1.
Serial Modes Supported (for Normal Serial mode)" .
5.For the following instructions: RDID, RDSR, RDSCUR, READ, FAST_READ, RDSFDP, 2READ, DREAD,
4READ, QREAD, RES, REMS, REMS2, and REMS4 the shifted-in instruction sequence is followed by a dataout sequence. After any bit of data being shifted out, the CS# can be high. For the following instructions: WREN,
WRDI, WRSR, SE, BE, CE, PP, 4PP, RDP, DP, ENSO, EXSO,and WRSCUR, the CS# must go high exactly at
the byte boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
6. During the progress of Write Status Register, Program, Erase operation, to access the memory array is neglected and not affect the current operation of Write Status Register, Program, Erase.

Read Identification (RDID)
The RDID instruction is for reading the Manufacturer ID of 1-byte and followed by Device ID of 2-byte. The Macronix Manufacturer ID is C2(hex), the memory type ID is as the first-byte Device ID, and the individual Device ID of
second-byte ID are listed as table of "Table 7. ID Definitions".
The sequence of issuing RDID instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending RDID instruction code → 24-bits ID data out
on SO→ to end RDID operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
While Program/Erase operation is in progress, it will not decode the RDID instruction, so there's no effect on the cycle of program/erase operation which is currently in progress. When CS# goes high, the device is at standby stage.

REV. 1.2, JAN. 14, 2014
MX25L1673E
The definition of the status register bits is as below:
WIP bit. The Write in Progress (WIP) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is busy in program/erase/write
status register progress. When WIP bit sets to 1, which means the device is busy in program/erase/write status
register progress. When WIP bit sets to 0, which means the device is not in progress of program/erase/write status
register cycle.
WEL bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit, a volatile bit, indicates whether the device is set to internal write enable
latch. When WEL bit sets to "1", which means the internal write enable latch is set, the device can accept program/
erase/write status register instruction. When WEL bit sets to 0, which means no internal write enable latch; the device will not accept program/erase/write status register instruction. The program/erase command will be ignored and
will reset WEL bit if it is applied to a protected memory area. To ensure both WIP bit & WEL bit are both set to 0 and
available for next program/erase/operations, WIP bit needs to be confirm to be 0 before polling WEL bit. After WIP bit
confirmed, WEL bit needs to be confirm to be 0.
BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits, non-volatile bits, indicate the protected area (as
defined in "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes") of the device to against the program/erase instruction without hardware
protection mode being set. To write the Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits requires the Write Status Register
(WRSR) instruction to be executed. Those bits define the protected area of the memory to against Page Program (PP),
Sector Erase (SE), Block Erase (BE) and Chip Erase (CE) instructions (only if all Block Protect bits set to 0, the CE
instruction can be executed). The BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits are "0" as default. Which is un-protected.
QE bit. The Quad Enable (QE) bit, a non-volatile bit which is permanently set to "1". The flash always performs
Quad I/O mode.
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit, non-volatile bit, default value is "0".

Write Status Register (WRSR)
The WRSR instruction is for changing the values of Status Register Bits. Before sending WRSR instruction, the
Write Enable (WREN) instruction must be decoded and executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit in advance. The WRSR instruction can change the value of Block Protect (BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits to define the protected area of memory (as shown in "Table 2. Protected Area Sizes"). The WRSR can reset the Status Register
Write Disable (SRWD) bit, but has no effect on bit1 (WEL) and bit0 (WIP) of the status register.
The sequence of issuing WRSR instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending WRSR instruction code→ Status Register
data on SI→ CS# goes high.

The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary; otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
The self-timed Write Status Register cycle time (tW) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write
in Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked out during the Write Status Register cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1
during the tW timing, and sets 0 when Write Status Register Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL)
bit is reset.

Read Data Bytes (READ)
The read instruction is for reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and data shifts out on
the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fR. The first address byte can be at any location. The address
is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can
be read out at a single READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been
reached.
The sequence of issuing READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending READ instruction code→3-byte address on
SI →data out on SO→ to end READ operation can use CS# to high at any time during data out.

Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (FAST_READ)
The FAST_READ instruction is for quickly reading data out. The address is latched on rising edge of SCLK, and
data of each bit shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fC. The first address byte can be at
any location. The address is automatically increased to the next higher address after each byte data is shifted out,
so the whole memory can be read out at a single FAST_READ instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when
the highest address has been reached.
The sequence of issuing FAST_READ instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending FAST_READ instruction code→
3-byte address on SI→1-dummy byte (default) address on SI→ data out on SO→ to end FAST_READ operation
can use CS# to high at any time during data out.
In the performance-enhancing mode, P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0] ; likewise P[7:0]=A5h,5Ah,F0h or 0Fh can
make this mode continue and reduce the next 4READ instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=FFh,00h,AAh or 55h and afterwards CS# is raised and then lowered, the system then will escape from
performance enhance mode and return to normal operation.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, FAST_READ instruction is rejected without any impact on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.

Dual Read Mode (DREAD)
The DREAD instruction enable double throughput of Serial Flash in read mode. The address is latched on rising
edge of SCLK, and data of every two bits (interleave on 2 I/O pins) shift out on the falling edge of SCLK at a maximum frequency fT. The first address byte can be at any location. The address is automatically increased to the next
higher address after each byte data is shifted out, so the whole memory can be read out at a single DREAD instruction. The address counter rolls over to 0 when the highest address has been reached. Once writing DREAD instruction, the following data out will perform as 2-bit instead of previous 1-bit.
The sequence of issuing DREAD instruction is: CS# goes low → sending DREAD instruction → 3-byte address on
SI → 8-bit dummy cycle → data out interleave on SO1 & SO0 → to end DREAD operation can use CS# to high at

P[7:0]→ 4 dummy cycles→ data out until CS# goes high → CS# goes low (reduce 4 Read instruction) → 24-bit random access address (Please refer to "Figure 14. 4 x I/O Read enhance performance Mode Sequence (Command
EB)" ).
In the performance-enhancing mode (Notes of "Figure 14. 4 x I/O Read enhance performance Mode Sequence
(Command EB)"), P[7:4] must be toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=A5h, 5Ah, F0h or 0Fh can make this mode
continue and reduce the next 4READ instruction. Once P[7:4] is no longer toggling with P[3:0]; likewise P[7:0]=FFh,
00h, AAh or 55h. These commands will reset the performance enhance mode. And afterwards CS# is raised and
then lowered, the system then will return to normal operation.
While Program/Erase/Write Status Register cycle is in progress, 4READ instruction is rejected without any impact
on the Program/Erase/Write Status Register current cycle.
9-12.
Performance Enhance Mode
The device could waive the command cycle bits if the two cycle bits after address cycle toggles. (Please note "Figure 14. 4 x I/O Read enhance performance Mode Sequence (Command EB)")
Please be noticed that “EBh” and “E7h” commands support enhance mode. The performance enhance mode is not
supported in dual I/O mode.
After entering enhance mode, following CSB go high, the device will stay in the read mode and treat CSB go low of
the first clock as address instead of command cycle.
To exit enhance mode, a new fast read command whose first two dummy cycles is not toggle then exit. Or issue
”FFh” command to exit enhance mode.
9-13.
Performance Enhance Mode Reset (FFh)
To conduct the Performance Enhance Mode Reset operation, FFh command code, 8 clocks, should be issued in 1I/
O sequence.
If the system controller is being Reset during operation, the flash device will return to the standard operation.
Upon Reset of main chip, Instruction would be issued from the system. Instructions like Read ID (9Fh) or Fast Read
(0Bh) would be issued.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.

any 4K-byte sector. A Write Enable (WREN) instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before
sending the Sector Erase (SE). Any address of the sector (see "Table 4. Memory Organization" ) is a valid address
for Sector Erase (SE) instruction. The CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the latest eighth of address
byte has been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and not executed.
The sequence of issuing SE instruction is: CS# goes low → sending SE instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI
→CS# goes high.

Page Program (PP)
The Page Program (PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN) instruction
must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Page Program (PP). The device programs
only the last 256 data bytes sent to the device. The last address byte (the 8 least significant address bits, A7-A0)
should be set to 0 for 256 bytes page program. If A7-A0 are not all zero, transmitted data that exceed page length
are programmed from the starting address (24-bit address that last 8 bit are all 0) of currently selected page. If the
data bytes sent to the device exceeds 256, the last 256 data byte is programmed at the request page and previous
data will be disregarded. If the data bytes sent to the device has not exceeded 256, the data will be programmed at
the request address of the page. There will be no effort on the other data bytes of the same page.
The sequence of issuing PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on SI→ at
least 1-byte on data on SI→ CS# goes high.
The CS# must be kept to low during the whole Page Program cycle; The CS# must go high exactly at the byte
boundary (the latest eighth bit of data being latched in), otherwise, the instruction will be rejected and will not be
executed.
The self-timed Page Program Cycle time (tPP) is initiated as soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high. The Write in
Progress (WIP) bit still can be checked out during the Page Program cycle is in progress. The WIP sets 1 during
the tPP timing, and sets 0 when Page Program Cycle is completed, and the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset. If
the page is protected by BP3~0, the array data will be protected (no change) and the WEL bit will still be reset.

4 x I/O Page Program (4PP)
The Quad Page Program (4PP) instruction is for programming the memory to be "0". A Write Enable (WREN)
instruction must execute to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The Quad Page Programming takes four pins:
SIO0, SIO1, SIO2, and SIO3, which can raise programmer performance and the effectiveness of application of
lower clock less than 85MHz. For system with faster clock, the Quad page program cannot provide more actual
favors, because the required internal page program time is far more than the time data flows in. Therefore, we
suggest that while executing this command (especially during sending data), user can slow the clock speed down to
85MHz below. The other function descriptions are as same as standard page program.
The sequence of issuing 4PP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending 4PP instruction code→ 3-byte address on
SIO[3:0]→ at least 1-byte on data on SIO[3:0]→ CS# goes high.
If the page is protected by BP3~0, the array data will be protected (no change) and the WEL bit will still be reset.

Deep Power-down (DP)
The Deep Power-down (DP) instruction is for setting the device on the minimizing the power consumption (to entering the Deep Power-down mode), the standby current is reduced from ISB1 to ISB2). The Deep Power-down mode
requires the Deep Power-down (DP) instruction to enter, during the Deep Power-down mode, the device is not active and all Write/Program/Erase instructions are ignored. When CS# goes high, it's only in standby mode not deep
power-down mode. It's different from Standby mode.
The sequence of issuing DP instruction is: CS# goes low→ sending DP instruction code→ CS# goes high.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.
Once the DP instruction is set, all instructions will be ignored except the Release from Deep Power-down mode (RDP)
and Read Electronic Signature (RES) instruction. (those instructions allow the ID being reading out). When Powerdown, the deep power-down mode automatically stops, and when power-up, the device automatically is in standby
mode. For RDP instruction the CS# must go high exactly at the byte boundary (the latest eighth bit of instruction
code has been latched-in); otherwise, the instruction will not be executed. As soon as Chip Select (CS#) goes high,
a delay of tDP is required before entering the Deep Power-down mode and reducing the current to ISB2.

Release from Deep Power-down (RDP), Read Electronic Signature (RES)
The Release from Deep Power-down (RDP) instruction is terminated by driving Chip Select (CS#) High. When Chip
Select (CS#) is driven High, the device is put in the standby Power mode. If the device was not previously in the
Deep Power-down mode, the transition to the standby Power mode is immediate. If the device was previously in the
Deep Power-down mode, though, the transition to the standby Power mode is delayed by tRES2, and Chip Select
(CS#) must remain High for at least tRES2(max), as specified in "Table 13. AC Characteristics". Once in the standby mode, the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and execute instructions.
RES instruction is for reading out the old style of 8-bit Electronic Signature, whose values are shown as "Table 7.
ID Definitions". This is not the same as RDID instruction. It is not recommended to use for new design. For new
design, please use RDID instruction. Even in Deep power-down mode, the RDP and RES are also allowed to be
executed, only except the device is in progress of program/erase/write cycles; there's no effect on the current program/erase/write cycles in progress.
The SIO[3:1] are don't care when during this mode.
The RES instruction is ended by CS# goes high after the ID been read out at least once. The ID outputs repeatedly if continuously send the additional clock cycles on SCLK while CS# is at low. If the device was not previously
in Deep Power-down mode, the device transition to standby mode is immediate. If the device was previously in
Deep Power-down mode, there's a delay of tRES2 to transit to standby mode, and CS# must remain to high at least
tRES2(max). Once in the standby mode, the device waits to be selected, so it can receive, decode, and execute
instruction.
The RDP instruction is for releasing from Deep Power-down Mode.

Read Electronic Manufacturer ID & Device ID (REMS), (REMS2), (REMS4)
The REMS, REMS2, and REMS4 instruction provides both the JEDEC assigned Manufacturer ID and the specific
Device ID.
The instruction is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and shift the instruction code "90h", "DFh" or "EFh" followed
by two dummy bytes and one byte address (A7~A0). After which, the Manufacturer ID for Macronix (C2h) and the
Device ID are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK with most significant bit (MSB) first as shown in the figure below. The Device ID values are listed in "Table 7. ID Definitions". If the one-byte address is initially set to 01h, then
the Device ID will be read first and then followed by the Manufacturer ID. The Manufacturer and Device IDs can be
read continuously, alternating from one to the other. The instruction is completed by driving CS# high.

Read SFDP Mode (RDSFDP)
The Serial Flash Discoverable Parameter (SFDP) standard provides a consistent method of describing the functional
and feature capabilities of serial flash devices in a standard set of internal parameter tables. These parameter tables
can be interrogated by host system software to enable adjustments needed to accommodate divergent features
from multiple vendors. The concept is similar to the one found in the Introduction of JEDEC Standard, JESD68 on
CFI.
The sequence of issuing RDSFDP instruction is same as CS# goes low→send RDSFDP instruction (5Ah)→send 3
address bytes on SI pin→send 1 dummy byte on SI pin→read SFDP code on SO→to end RDSFDP operation can
use CS# to high at any time during data out.
SFDP is a JEDEC Standard. JESD216.

Note 1:h/b is hexadecimal or binary.
Note 2:(x-y-z) means I/O mode nomenclature used to indicate the number of active pins used for the opcode (x),
address (y), and data (z). At the present time, the only valid Read SFDP instruction modes are: (1-1-1), (2-2-2),
and (4-4-4)
Note 3:Wait States is required dummy clock cycles after the address bits or optional mode bits.
Note 4:Mode Bits is optional control bits that follow the address bits. These bits are driven by the system controller
if they are specified. (eg,read performance enhance toggling bits)

10. POWER-ON STATE
The device is at below states when power-up:
- Standby mode (please note it is not Deep Power-down mode)
- Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset
The device must not be selected during power-up and power-down stage unless the VCC achieves below correct
level:
- VCC minimum at power-up stage and then after a delay of tVSL
- GND at power-down
Please note that a pull-up resistor on CS# may ensure a safe and proper power-up/down level.
An internal Power-on Reset (POR) circuit may protect the device from data corruption and inadvertent data change
during power up state.
For further protection on the device, if the VCC does not reach the VCC minimum level, the correct operation is not
guaranteed. The read, write, erase, and program command should be sent after the time delay:
- tVSL after VCC reached VCC minimum level
The device can accept read command after VCC reached VCC minimum and a time delay of tVSL.
Note:
- To stabilize the VCC level, the VCC rail decoupled by a suitable capacitor close to package pins is recommended.
(generally around 0.1uF)

13. OPERATING CONDITIONS
At Device Power-Up and Power-Down
AC timing illustrated in "Figure 35. AC Timing at Device Power-Up" and "Figure 36. Power-Down Sequence" are
for the supply voltages and the control signals at device power-up and power-down. If the timing in the figures is
ignored, the device will not operate correctly.
During power-up and power-down, CS# needs to follow the voltage applied on VCC to keep the device not to be
selected. The CS# can be driven low when VCC reach Vcc(min.) and wait a period of tVSL.
