MX25L3236F
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MX25L3236F is 32Mb bits Serial NOR Flash memory, which is configured as 4,194,304 x 8 internally. When it is
in four I/O mode, the structure becomes 8,388,608 bits x 4. When it is in two I/O mode, the structure becomes
16,777,216 bits x 2.
MX25L3236F features a serial peripheral interface and software protocol allowing operation on a simple 3-wire
bus while it is in single I/O mode. 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.
MX25L3236F, MXSMIO
®
(Serial Multi I/O) flash memory, provides sequential read operation on the whole chip
and multi-I/O features.
When it is in quad I/O mode, the SI pin, SO pin, WP# pin and HOLD# pin become SIO0 pin, SIO1 pin, SIO2 pin
and SIO3 pin for address/dummy bits input and data Input/Output.
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. Erase command is executed on 4K-byte sector, 32K-byte/64K-byte block, 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.
When the device is not in operation and CS# is high, it is put in standby mode.
The MX25L3236F utilizes Macronix's proprietary memory cell, which reliably stores memory contents even after
