All rights reserved. 64Mb, 3V, Multiple I/O Serial Flash Memory Device Description Device Description The N25Q is the first high-performance multiple input/output serial Flash memory device manufactured on 65nm NOR technology. It features execute-in-place (XIP) functionality, advanced write protection mechanisms, and a high-speed SPI-compatible bus interface. The innovative, high-performance, dual and quad input/output instructions enable double or quadruple the transfer bandwidth for READ and PROGRAM operations. Features The memory is organized as 128 (64KB) main sectors that are further divided into 16 subsectors each (2048 subsectors in total). The memory can be erased one 4KB subsector at a time, 64KB sectors at a time, or as a whole. The memory can be write protected by software through volatile and nonvolatile protection features, depending on the application needs. The protection granularity is of 64KB (sector granularity) for volatile protections The device has 64 one-time programmable (OTP) bytes that can be read and programmed with the READ OTP and PROGRAM OTP commands. These 64 bytes can also be permanently locked with a PROGRAM OTP command. The device also has the ability to pause and resume PROGRAM and ERASE cycles by using dedicated PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND and RESUME instructions. Operating Protocols The memory can be operated with three different protocols: • Extended SPI (standard SPI protocol upgraded with dual and quad operations) • Dual I/O SPI • Quad I/O SPI The standard SPI protocol is extended and enhanced by dual and quad operations. In addition, the dual SPI and quad SPI protocols improve the data access time and throughput of a single I/O device by transmitting commands, addresses, and data across two or four data lines. XIP Mode XIP mode requires only an address (no instruction) to output data, improving random access time and eliminating the need to shadow code onto RAM for fast execution. All protocols support XIP operation. For flexibility, multiple XIP entry and exit methods are available. For applications that must enter XIP mode immediately after powering up, XIP mode can be set as the default mode through the nonvolatile configuration register bits.

All rights reserved. 64Mb, 3V, Multiple I/O Serial Flash Memory Signal Descriptions Signal Descriptions The signal description table below is a comprehensive list of signals for the N25 family devices. All signals listed may not be supported on this device. See Signal Assignments for information specific to this device. Table 1: Signal Descriptions Symbol Type Description C Input Clock: Provides the timing of the serial interface. Commands, addresses, or data present at serial data inputs are latched on the rising edge of the clock. Data is shifted out on the falling edge of the clock. S# Input Chip select: When S# is HIGH, the device is deselected and DQ1 is at High-Z. When in extended SPI mode, with the device deselected, DQ1 is tri-stated. Unless an internal PROGRAM, ERASE, or WRITE STATUS REGISTER cycle is in progress, the device enters standby power mode (not deep power-down mode). Driving S# LOW enables the device, placing it in the active power mode. After power-up, a falling edge on S# is required prior to the start of any command. DQ0 Input and I/O Serial data: Transfers data serially into the device. It receives command codes, addresses, and the data to be programmed. Values are latched on the rising edge of the clock. DQ0 is used for input/output during the following operations: DUAL OUTPUT FAST READ, QUAD OUTPUT FAST READ, DUAL INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ, and QUAD INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ. When used for output, data is shifted out on the falling edge of the clock. In DIO-SPI, DQ0 always acts as an input/output. In QIO-SPI, DQ0 always acts as an input/output, with the exception of the PROGRAM or ERASE cycle performed with VPP. The device temporarily enters the extended SPI protocol and then returns to QIO-SPI as soon as VPP goes LOW. DQ1 Output and I/O Serial data:Transfers data serially out of the device. Data is shifted out on the falling edge of the clock. DQ1 is used for input/output during the following operations: DUAL INPUT FAST PROGRAM, QUAD INPUT FAST PROGRAM, DUAL INPUT EXTENDED FAST PROGRAM, and QUAD INPUT EXTENDED FAST PROGRAM. When used for input, data is latched on the rising edge of the clock. In DIO-SPI, DQ1 always acts as an input/output. In QIO-SPI, DQ1 always acts as an input/output, with the exception of the PROGRAM or ERASE cycle performed with the enhanced program supply voltage (VPP). In this case the device temporarily enters the extended SPI protocol and then returns to QIO-SPI as soon as VPP goes LOW. DQ2 Input and I/O DQ2: When in QIO-SPI mode or in extended SPI mode using QUAD FAST READ commands, the signal functions as DQ2, providing input/output. All data input drivers are always enabled except when used as an output. Micron recommends customers drive the data signals normally (to avoid unnecessary switching current) and float the signals before the memory device drives data on them. DQ3 Input and I/O DQ3: When in quad SPI mode or in extended SPI mode using quad FAST READ commands, the signal functions as DQ3, providing input/output. HOLD# is disabled and RESET# is disabled if the device is selected. RESET# Control Input RESET: This is a hardware RESET# signal. When RESET# is driven HIGH, the memory is in the normal operating mode. When RESET# is driven LOW, the memory enters reset mode and output is High-Z. If RESET# is driven LOW while an internal WRITE, PROGRAM, or ERASE operation is in progress, data may be lost. PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev. N 10/14 EN 11 Micron Technology, Inc. reserves the right to change products or specifications without notice. © 2011 Micron Technology, Inc. All rights reserved. 64Mb, 3V, Multiple I/O Serial Flash Memory Signal Descriptions Table 1: Signal Descriptions (Continued) Symbol Type HOLD# Control Input HOLD: Pauses any serial communications with the device without deselecting the device. DQ1 (output) is High-Z. DQ0 (input) and the clock are "Don't Care." To enable HOLD, the device must be selected with S# driven LOW. HOLD# is used for input/output during the following operations: QUAD OUTPUT FAST READ, QUAD INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ, QUAD INPUT FAST PROGRAM, and QUAD INPUT EXTENDED FAST PROGRAM. In QIO-SPI, HOLD# acts as an I/O (DQ3 functionality), and the HOLD# functionality is disabled when the device is selected. When the device is deselected (S# is HIGH) in parts with RESET# functionality, it is possible to reset the device unless this functionality is not disabled by means of dedicated registers bits. The HOLD# functionality can be disabled using bit 4 of the NVCR or bit 4 of the VECR. W# Control Input Write protect: W# can be used as a protection control input or in QIO-SPI operations. When in extended SPI with single or dual commands, the WRITE PROTECT function is selectable by the voltage range applied to the signal. If voltage range is low (0V to VCC), the signal acts as a write protection control input. The memory size protected against PROGRAM or ERASE operations is locked as specified in the status register block protect bits 3:0. W# is used as an input/output (DQ2 functionality) during QUAD INPUT FAST READ and QUAD INPUT/OUTPUT FAST READ operations and in QIO-SPI. VPP Power Supply voltage: If VPP is in the voltage range of VPPH, the signal acts as an additional power supply, as defined in the AC Measurement Conditions table. During QIFP, QIEFP, and QIO-SPI PROGRAM/ERASE operations, it is possible to use the additional VPP power supply to speed up internal operations. However, to enable this functionality, it is necessary to set bit 3 of the VECR to 0. In this case, VPP is used as an I/O until the end of the operation. After the last input data is shifted in, the application should apply VPP voltage to VPP within 200ms to speed up the internal operations. If the VPP voltage is not applied within 200ms, the PROGRAM/ERASE operations start at standard speed. The default value of VECR bit 3 is 1, and the VPP functionality for quad I/O modify operations is disabled. VCC Power Device core power supply: Source voltage. VSS Ground DNU – Do not use.

The difference between the two modes is the clock polarity when the bus master is in standby mode and not transferring data. Input data is latched in on the rising edge of the clock, and output data is available from the falling edge of the clock. Table 7: SPI Modes Note: Note 1 applies to the entire table SPI Modes Clock Polarity CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0 C remains at 0 for (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0) CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1 C remains at 1 for (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1) 1. The listed SPI modes are supported in extended, dual, and quad SPI protocols. Shown below is an example of three memory devices in extended SPI protocol in a simple connection to an MCU on an SPI bus. Because only one device is selected at a time, that one device drives DQ1, while the other devices are High-Z. Resistors ensure the device is not selected if the bus master leaves S# High-Z. The bus master might enter a state in which all input/output is High-Z simultaneously, such as when the bus master is reset. Therefore, the serial clock must be connected to an external pull-down resistor so that S# is pulled HIGH while the serial clock is pulled LOW. This ensures that S# and the serial clock are not HIGH simultaneously and that tSHCH is met. The typical resistor value of 100kΩ, assuming that the time constant R × Cp (Cp = parasitic capacitance of the bus line), is shorter than the time the bus master leaves the SPI bus in High-Z. Example: Cp = 50pF, that is R × Cp = 5μs. The application must ensure that the bus master never leaves the SPI bus High-Z for a time period shorter than 5μs. W# and HOLD# should be driven either HIGH or LOW, as appropriate. PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev.

Additional comlines, depending mands extend the standard SPI protocol and enable address on the command or data transmission on multiple DQn lines. DQ[1:0] Volatile selectable: When the enhanced volatile configuration register bit 6 is set to 0 and bit 7 is set to 1, the device enters the dual SPI protocol immediately after the WRITE ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command. The device returns to the default protocol after the next power-on. In addition, the device can return to default protocol using the rescue sequence or through new WRITE ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, without power-off or power-on. Nonvolatile selectable: When nonvolatile configuration register bit 2 is set, the device enters the dual SPI protocol after the next power-on. Once this register bit is set, the device defaults to the dual SPI protocol after all subsequent power-on sequences until the nonvolatile configuration register bit is reset to 1. Quad1 DQ[3:0] DQ[3:0] DQ[3:0] Volatile selectable: When the enhanced volatile configuration register bit 7 is set to 0, the device enters the quad SPI protocol immediately after the WRITE ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command.

In addition, the device can return to default protocol using the rescue sequence or through new WRITE ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, without poweroff or power-on. Nonvolatile selectable: When nonvolatile configuration register bit 3 is set to 0, the device enters the quad SPI protocol after the next power-on.

Note: PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev. N 10/14 EN 1. In quad SPI protocol, all command/address input and data I/O are transmitted on four lines except during a PROGRAM and ERASE cycle performed with VPP. In this case, the device enters the extended SPI protocol to temporarily allow the application to perform a PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND operation or to check the write-in-progress bit in the status register or the program/erase controller bit in the flag status register. Then, when VPP goes LOW, the device returns to the quad SPI protocol. 19 Micron Technology, Inc. reserves the right to change products or specifications without notice. © 2011 Micron Technology, Inc.

In addition to these user-accessible registers, the working condition of memory is set by an internal configuration register that is not directly accessible to users. As shown below, parameters in the internal configuration register are loaded from the nonvolatile configuration register during each device boot phase or power-on reset. In this sense, then, the nonvolatile configuration register contains the default settings of memory. Also, during the life of an application, each time a WRITE VOLATILE or ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command executes to set configuration parameters in these respective registers, these new settings are copied to the internal configuration register. Therefore, memory settings can be changed in real time. However, at the next power-on reset, the memory boots according to the memory settings defined in the nonvolatile configuration register parameters. Figure 10: Internal Configuration Register Nonvolatile configuration register Register download is executed only during the power-on phase or after a reset, overwriting configuration register settings on the internal configuration register. Volatile configuration register and enhanced volatile configuration register Internal configuration register Register download is executed after a WRITE VOLATILE OR ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, overwriting configuration register settings on the internal configuration register.

The status register write enable/disable bit, combined with the W#/VPP signal as described in the Signal Descriptions, provides hardware data protection for the device as follows: When the enable/disable bit is set to 1, and the W#/VPP signal is driven LOW, the status register nonvolatile bits become read-only and the WRITE STATUS REGISTER operation will not execute. The only way to exit this hardware-protected mode is to drive W#/VPP HIGH. 4. See Protected Area Sizes tables in Device Protection.

For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], and is output on DQ[3:0]. The operation is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during data output. The nonvolatile configuration register can be read continuously. After all 16 bits of the register have been read, a 0 is output. All reserved fields output a value of 1. READ VOLATILE or ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Command To execute a READ VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command or a READ ENHANCED VOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, S# is driven LOW. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, and output on DQ1. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], and output on DQ[1:0]. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], and is output on DQ[3:0]. The operation is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during data output. When the register is read continuously, the same byte is output repeatedly. WRITE STATUS REGISTER Command To issue a WRITE STATUS REGISTER command, the WRITE ENABLE command must be executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, followed by the data bytes. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], followed by the data bytes. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], followed by the data bytes. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tW. This command is used to write new values to status register bits 7:2, enabling software data protection. The status register can also be combined with the W#/V PP signal to provide hardware data protection. The WRITE STATUS REGISTER command has no effect on status register bits 1:0. When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation completes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev.

A WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER operation requires data being sent starting from least significant byte. WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Command To execute the WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, the WRITE ENABLE command must be executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the 16th bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, followed by two data bytes. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0], followed by the data bytes. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0], followed by the data bytes. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tWNVCR. When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. When the operation completes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not.

DIN 64Mb, 3V, Multiple I/O Serial Flash Memory READ REGISTER and WRITE REGISTER Operations If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, the flag status register error bits are not set and the write enable latch remains set to 1. Reserved bits are not affected by this command. READ LOCK REGISTER Command To execute the READ LOCK REGISTER command, S# is driven LOW. For extended SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ0, followed by three address bytes that point to a location in the sector. For dual SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[1:0]. For quad SPI protocol, the command code is input on DQ[3:0]. Each address bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock. For extended SPI protocol, data is shifted out on DQ1 at a maximum frequency fC during the falling edge of the clock. For dual SPI protocol, data is shifted out on DQ[1:0], and for quad SPI protocol, data is shifted out on DQ[3:0]. The operation is terminated by driving S# HIGH at any time during data output. When the register is read continuously, the same byte is output repeatedly. Any READ LOCK REGISTER command that is executed while an ERASE, PROGRAM, or WRITE cycle is in progress is rejected with no affect on the cycle in progress. Table 17: Lock Register Note 1 applies to entire table Bit Name Settings Description Reserved 0 Bit values are 0. 1 Sector lock down 0 = Cleared (Default) Volatile bit: the device always powers-up with this bit cleared, 1 = Set which means sector lock down and sector write lock bits can be set. When this bit set, neither of the lock register bits can be written to until the next power cycle. 0 Sector write lock 0 = Cleared (Default) Volatile bit: the device always powers-up with this bit cleared, 1 = Set which means that PROGRAM and ERASE operations in this sector can be executed and sector content modified. When this bit is set, PROGRAM and ERASE operations in this sector will not be executed. Note: 1. Sector lock register bits 1:0 are written to by the WRITE LOCK REGISTER command. The command will not execute unless the sector lock down bit is cleared. 7:2 PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev.

WRITE LOCK REGISTER Command To initiate the WRITE LOCK REGISTER command, the WRITE ENABLE command must be executed to set the write enable latch bit to 1. S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The command code is input on DQn, followed by three address bytes that point to a location in the sector, and then one data byte that contains the desired settings for lock register bits 0 and 1. Each address bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock. When execution is complete, the write enable latch bit is cleared within tSHSL2 and no error bits are set. Because lock register bits are volatile, change to the bits is immediate. WRITE LOCK REGISTER can be executed when an ERASE SUSPEND operation is in effect. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1. PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev.

S# is then driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the last data byte has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The command code is input on DQ0, followed by input on DQ[n] of address bytes and at least one data byte. Each address bit is latched in during the rising edge of the clock. When S# is driven HIGH, the operation, which is self-timed, is initiated; its duration is tPP. If the bits of the least significant address, which is the starting address, are not all zero, all data transmitted beyond the end of the current page is programmed from the starting address of the same page. If the number of bytes sent to the device exceed the maximum page size, previously latched data is discarded and only the last maximum pagesize number of data bytes are guaranteed to be programmed correctly within the same page. If the number of bytes sent to the device is less than the maximum page size, they are correctly programmed at the specified addresses without any effect on the other bytes of the same page. When the operation is in progress, the write in progress bit is set to 1. The write enable latch bit is cleared to 0, whether the operation is successful or not. The status register and flag status register can be polled for the operation status. An operation can be paused or resumed by the PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND or PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command, respectively. When the operation completes, the write in progress bit is cleared to 0. If the operation times out, the write enable latch bit is reset and the program fail bit is set to 1. If S# is not driven HIGH, the command is not executed, flag status register error bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains set to 1. When a command is applied to a protected sector, the command is not executed, the write enable latch bit remains set to 1, and flag status register bits 1 and 4 are set.

To execute a WRITE ENABLE command, S# is driven LOW and held LOW until the eighth bit of the command code has been latched in, after which it must be driven HIGH. The command code is input on DQ0 for extended SPI protocol, on DQ[1:0] for dual SPI protocol, and on DQ[3:0] for quad SPI protocol. The write enable latch bit must be set before every PROGRAM, ERASE, and WRITE command. If S# is not driven HIGH after the command code has been latched in, the command is not executed, flag status register error bits are not set, and the write enable latch remains cleared to its default setting of 0.

The command code is input on DQ0. The operation is terminated by the PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command. PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND command enables the memory controller to interrupt and suspend an array PROGRAM or ERASE operation within the program/erase latency. If a SUSPEND command is issued during a PROGRAM operation, then the flag status register bit 2 is set to 1. After erase/program latency time, the flag status register bit 7 is also set to 1, showing the device to be in a suspended state, waiting for any operation (see the Operations Allowed/Disallowed During Device States table). If a SUSPEND command is issued during an ERASE operation, then the flag status register bit 6 is set to 1. After erase/program latency time, the flag status register bit 7 is also set to 1, showing that device to be in a suspended state, waiting for any operation (see the Operations Allowed/Disallowed During Device States table). If the time remaining to complete the operation is less than the suspend latency, the device completes the operation and clears the flag status register bits 2 or 6, as applicable. Because the suspend state is volatile, if there is a power cycle, the suspend state information is lost and the flag status register powers up as 80h. During an ERASE SUSPEND operation, a PROGRAM or READ operation is possible in any sector except the one in a suspended state. Reading from a sector that is in a suspended state will output indeterminate data. The device ignores a PROGRAM command to a sector that is in an ERASE SUSPEND state; it also sets the flag status register bit 4 to 1: program failure/protection error, and leaves the write enable latch bit unchanged.

It is possible to nest a PROGRAM/ERASE SUSPEND operation inside a PROGRAM/ ERASE SUSPEND operation just once. Issue an ERASE command and suspend it. Then issue a PROGRAM command and suspend it also. With the two operations suspended, the next PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command resumes the latter operation, and a second PROGRAM/ERASE RESUME command resumes the former (or first) operation.

XIP mode offers maximum flexibility to the application, saves instruction overhead, and reduces random access time. Activate or Terminate XIP Using Volatile Configuration Register Applications that boot in SPI and must switch to XIP use the volatile configuration register. XIP provides faster memory READ operations by requiring only an address to execute, rather than a command code and an address. To activate XIP requires two steps. First, enable XIP by setting volatile configuration register bit 3 to 0. Next, drive the XIP confirmation bit to 0 during the next FAST READ operation. XIP is then active. Once in XIP, any command that occurs after S# is toggled requires only address bits to execute; a command code is not necessary, and device operations use the SPI protocol that is enabled. XIP is terminated by driving the XIP confirmation bit to 1. The device automatically resets volatile configuration register bit 3 to 1. Note: For devices with basic XIP, indicated by a part number feature set digit of 2 or 4, it is not necessary to set the volatile configuration register bit 3 to 0 to enable XIP. Instead, it is enabled by setting the XIP confirmation bit to 0 during the first dummy clock cycle after any FAST READ command. Activate or Terminate XIP Using Nonvolatile Configuration Register Applications that must boot directly in XIP use the nonvolatile configuration register. To enable a device to power-up in XIP using the nonvolatile configuration register, set nonvolatile configuration register bits [11:9]. Settings vary according to protocol, as explained in the Nonvolatile Configuration Register section. Because the device boots directly in XIP, the confirmation bit is already set to 0, and after the next power cycle, XIP is active. Once in XIP, a command code is unnecessary, and device operations use the SPI protocol currently enabled. XIP is terminated by driving the XIP confirmation bit to 1.

Xb is the XIP confirmation bit and should be set as follows: 0 to keep XIP state; 1 to exit XIP mode and return to standard read mode. Confirmation Bit Settings Required to Activate or Terminate XIP The XIP confirmation bit setting activates or terminates XIP after it has been enabled or disabled. This bit is the value on DQ0 during the first dummy clock cycle in the FAST READ operation. XIP requires at least one additional clock cycle to send the XIP confirmation bit to the memory on DQ0 during the first dummy clock cycle. Table 27: XIP Confirmation Bit Bit Value Description 0 Activates XIP: While this bit is 0, XIP remains activated. 1 Terminates XIP: When this bit is set to 1, XIP is terminated and the device returns to SPI. Table 28: Effects of Running XIP in Different Protocols Protocol Effect Notes Extended I/O, Dual I/O In a device with a dedicated part number where RST# is enabled, a LOW pulse on RST# resets XIP and the device to the state it was in previous to the last power-up, as defined by the nonvolatile configuration register. Dual I/O Values of DQ1 during the first dummy clock cycle are "Don't Care." Quad I/O Values of DQ[3:1] during the first dummy clock cycle are "Don't Care." In a device with a dedicated part number where RST# is enabled, a LOW pulse on RST# resets XIP and the device to the state it was in previous to the last power-up, as defined by the nonvolatile configuration register.

All rights reserved. 64Mb, 3V, Multiple I/O Serial Flash Memory XIP Mode Terminating XIP After a Controller and Memory Reset The system controller and the device can become out of synchronization if, during the life of the application, the system controller is reset without the device being reset. In such a case, the controller can reset the memory to power-on reset if the memory has reset functionality. (Reset is available in devices with a dedicated part number.) If reset functionality is not available, has been disabled, or is not supported by the controller, the controller must execute the following sequence to terminate XIP in the memory device. In quad I/O protocol, drive DQ0 = 1 with S# held LOW for seven clock cycles; S# must driven HIGH before the eighth clock cycle. In dual I/O protocol, drive DQ0 = 1 with S# held LOW for 13 clock cycles; S# must driven HIGH before the fourteenth clock cycle. If the device is in extended protocol, drive DQ0 = 1 with S# held LOW for 25 clock cycles; S# must driven HIGH before the twenty-sixth clock cycle. These sequences cause the controller to set the XIP confirmation bit to 1, thereby terminating XIP. However, it does not reset the device or interrupt PROGRAM/ERASE operations that may be in progress. PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev.

To avoid data corruption and inadvertent WRITE operations during power-up, a poweron reset circuit is included. The logic inside the device is held to RESET while V CC is less than the power-on reset threshold voltage shown here; all operations are disabled, and the device does not respond to any instruction. During a standard power-up phase, the device ignores all commands except READ STATUS REGISTER and READ FLAG STATUS REGISTER. These operations can be used to check the memory internal state. After power-up, the device is in standby power mode; the write enable latch bit is reset; the write in progress bit is reset; and the lock registers are configured as: (write lock bit, lock down bit) = (0,0). Normal precautions must be taken for supply line decoupling to stabilize the V CC supply. Each device in a system should have the V CC line decoupled by a suitable capacitor (typically 100nF) close to the package pins. At power-down, when V CC drops from the operating voltage to below the power-on-reset threshold voltage shown here, all operations are disabled and the device does not respond to any command. Note: If power-down occurs while a WRITE, PROGRAM, or ERASE cycle is in progress, data corruption may result. VPPH must be applied only when V CC is stable and in the V CC,min to V CC,max voltage range.

Parameters listed are characterized only. Power Loss Rescue Sequence If a power loss occurs during a WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command, after the next power-on, the device might begin in an undetermined state (XIP mode or an unnecessary protocol). If this happens, until the next power-up, a rescue sequence must reset the device to a fixed state (extended SPI protocol without XIP). After the rescue sequence, the issue should be resolved by running the WRITE NONVOLATILE CONFIGURATION REGISTER command again. The rescue sequence is composed of two parts that must be run in the correct order. During the entire sequence, tSHSL2 must be at least 50ns. The first part of the sequence is DQ0 (PAD DATA) and DQ3 (PAD HOLD) equal to 1 for the situations listed below: • 7 clock cycles within S# LOW (S# becomes HIGH before 8th clock cycle) • + 13 clock cycles within S# LOW (S# becomes HIGH before 14th clock cycle) • + 25 clock cycles within S# LOW (S# becomes HIGH before 26th clock cycle) The second part of the sequence is exiting from dual or quad SPI protocol by using the following FFh sequence: DQ0 and DQ3 equal to 1 for 8 clock cycles within S# LOW; S# becomes HIGH before 9th clock cycle. After this two-part sequence the extended SPI protocol is active. PDF: 09005aef845665f4 n25q_064a_3v_65nm.pdf - Rev.
