MX25L512E
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX25L512E is a CMOS 524,288 bit serial Flash memory, which is configured as 65,536 x 8 internally. MX25L512E
features 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.
MX25L512E provides sequential read operation on whole chip.
After program/erase command is issued, auto program/erase algorithms which program/erase and verify the speci-
fied page or sector/block locations will be executed. Program command is executed on page (256 bytes) basis, and
erase command is executes on chip or sector (4K-bytes).
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.
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode.
The MX25L512E utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after
