GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The IS25LQ080 is 8 Mbit Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Flash memories, providing single-, dual or quad-
output. The devices are designed to support a 33 MHz fclock rate in normal read mode, and 104 MHz in fast
read (Quad output is 100MHz), the fastest in the industry. The devices use a single low voltage power supply,
ranging from 2.3 Volt to 3.6 Volt, to perform read, erase and program operations. The devices can be
programmed in standard EPROM programmers.
The IS25LQ080 are accessed through a 4-wire SPI Interface consisting of Serial Data Input/Output (Sl), Serial
Data Output (SO), Serial Clock (SCK), and Chip Enable (CE#) pins. The devices support page program mode,
where 1 to 256 bytes data can be programmed into the memory in one program operation. These devices are
divided into uniform 4 KByte sectors or uniform 64 KByte blocks.

DESCRIPTION
Chip Enable: CE# low activates the devices internal circuitries for
device operation. CE# high deselects the devices and switches into
standby mode to reduce the power consumption. When a device is not
selected, data will not be accepted via the serial input pin (Sl), and the
serial output pin (SO) will remain in a high impedance state.

Write Protect/Serial Data Output: A hardware program/erase protection for all or
part of a memory array. When the WP# pin is low, memory array write-protection
depends on the setting of BP3, BP2, BP1 and BP0 bits in the Status Register.
When the WP# is high, the status register are not write-protected.
When the QE bit of is set “1”, the /WP pin (Hardware Write Protect) function is
not available since this pin is used for IO2
Hold: Pause serial communication by the master device without resetting
the serial sequence.
When the QE bit of Status Register is set for “1”, the function is Serial Data

SPI MODES DESCRIPTION
Multiple IS25LQ080 devices can be connected on the
SPI serial bus and controlled by a SPI Master, i.e.
microcontroller, as shown in Figure 1. The devices
support either of two SPI modes:
Mode 0 (0, 0)
Mode 3 (1, 1)
The difference between these two modes is the clock
polarity when the SPI master is in Stand-by mode: the
serial clock remains at “0” (SCK = 0) for Mode 0 and
the clock remains at “1” (SCK = 1) for Mode 3. Please
refer to Figure 2. For both modes, the input data is
latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (SCK), and
the output data is available from the falling edge of
SCK.
