SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M25P80 is a 8 Mbit (1M x 8) Serial Flash Memory, with advanced write protection mecha­nisms, accessed by a high speed SPI -compatible bus.
The memory can be programmed 1 to 256 bytes at a time, using the Page Program instruction.
The memory is organized as 16 sectors, each con­taining 256 pages. E ach page is 25 6 bytes wide. Thus, the whole memory can be viewed as con­sisting of 4096 pages, or 1,048,576 bytes.
The whole memory can be eras ed using the B ulk Erase instruction, or a sector at a time, us ing the Sector Erase instruction.

SIGNAL DESCRIPTION Serial Data Output (Q). This output signal is
used to transfer data serially out of the device. Data is shifted out on the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).
Serial Data Input (D). This input signal is used to transfer data serially into the device. It receives in­structions, addresses, and the data to be pro­grammed. Values are latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C).
Serial Clock (C). This input signal provides the timing of the serial interface. Instructions, address­es, or data present at Serial Data Input (D) are latched on the rising edge of Serial Clock (C). Data on Serial Data Output (Q) changes after the falling edge of Serial Clock (C).
Chip Select (S
). When this input signal is High,
the device is des elected and Serial Data Output (Q) is at high impedance. Unless an internal Pro­gram, Erase or Write Status Register cycle is in progress, the device will b e in the Standby m ode
(this is not the Deep Power-down mode). Driving Chip Selec t ( S
) Low enables the device, placing it
in the active power mode. After Power-up, a falling edge on Chip Select (S
)
is required prior to the start of any instruction.
Hold (HOLD
). The Hold (HOLD) signal is used to
pause any serial communications with the device without deselecting the device.
During the Hold condition, the Serial Data Output (Q) is high impedanc e, and Serial D ata Input (D) and Serial Clock (C) are Don’t Care.
To start the Hold condition, the device must be se­lected, wit h C hip S e lec t (S
) driven Low.
Write Protect (W
). The main purpose of this in-
put signal is to freeze the size of the area of mem­ory that is protected against program or erase instructions (as specified by the values in the BP2, BP1 and BP0 bits of the Status Register).

SPI MODES
These devices can be drive n by a microcont roller with its SPI peripheral running in either of the two following modes:
– CPOL=0, CPHA=0 – CPOL=1, CPHA=1 For these two modes, input dat a is latched in on
the rising edge of Serial Clock (C), and output data
is avai lable from the falling edge of Serial Cloc k (C).
The difference between the two modes, as shown in Figure 5, is the clock polarity when the bus mas­ter is in Stand-by mode and not transferring data:
– C remains at 0 for (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) – C remains at 1 for (CPOL=1, CPHA=1)

Note: 1. The Write Protect (W) and Hold (HOLD) signals should be driven, High or Low as approp ri ate.

OPERATING FEATURES Page Prog ram m i ng
To program one data byte, two instructions are re­quired: Write Enable (WREN), which is one by te, and a Page Program (PP) sequence, which con­sists of four bytes plus data. This is followed by the internal Program cycle (of duration t
PP
).
To spread this overhead, the Page P rogram (PP) instruction allows up to 256 bytes to be pro­grammed at a time (changing bits from 1 to 0), pro­vided that they lie in consecutive addresses on the same page of memory.
Sector Erase and Bulk Erase
The Page Program (PP) instruction allows bits to be reset from 1 to 0. Before this can be applied, the bytes of memory need to have been e rased to a ll 1s (FFh). This can be achieved either a sector at a time, using the Sector Erase (SE) instruction, or throughout the entire memory, using the Bulk Erase (BE) instruction. This starts an internal Erase cycle (of duration t
SE
or tBE).
The Erase instruction must be preceeded by a Write Enable (WREN) instruction.
Polling During a Write, Program or Erase Cycle
A further improvement in the time to Write Status Register (WRSR), Program (PP) or Erase (SE or BE) can be achieved by n ot waiting for the worst case delay (t
W
, tPP, tSE, or tBE). The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is provided in the Status Regis­ter so that the application program can monitor its value, polling it to establish when the previous Write cycle, Program cycle or Erase cycle is com­plete.
Active Power, Stand-by Power and De ep Power-Down Modes
When Chip Select (S) is Low, the device is en­abled, and in the Active Power mode.
When Chip Select (S
) is High, the device is dis­abled, but could remain in the Active Power mode until all internal cycles have completed (Pro gram, Erase, Write Status Register). The device then goes in to the Stand-by P ower mode. T he device consumption drops to I
CC1
.
The Deep Power-down mode is entered when the specific instruction (the Enter Deep Power-down Mode (DP) instruction) is executed. The device consumption drops further to I
CC2
. The device re­mains in this mode until another specific instruc­tion (the Release from Deep Power-down Mode and Read Electronic S ignature (RES ) instruction) is executed.
All other instructions are ignored while the device is in the Deep Power-down mode. This can be used as an extra software protection mecha nism, when the device is not in active use, to protect the device from inadvertant Write, Program or Erase instructions.
Status Register
The Status Register contains a num ber of status and control bits that can be read or set (as appro­priate) by specific instructions.
WIP bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates whether the memory is busy with a Write Sta tus Register, Program or Erase cycle.
WEL bit. Th e Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indi­cates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch.
BP2, BP1, BP0 bits. The Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to be software protected against Program and Erase instructions.
SRWD bit. The Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit is operated in conjunction with the Write Protect (W
) signal. The Status Register
Write Disable (SRWD) bit an d Write Protect (W
) signal allow the device to be put in the Hardware Protected mode. In this mode, the non-volatile bits of the Status Register (SRWD, BP2, BP1, BP0) become read-only bits.

Protection Modes
The environments where non-volatile memory de­vices are used can be v ery noisy. No SPI device can operate correctly in the presence of excessive noise. To help combat this, the M25P80 boasts the following data protection mechanisms:
Power-On Reset and an internal timer (t
PUW
) can provide protection against inadvertant changes while the power supply is outside the operating specification.
Program, Erase and Write Status Register
instructions are checked that they consist of a number of clock pulses that is a multiple of eight, before they are accepted for execution.
All instructions that modify data must be
preceded by a Write Enable (WREN) instruction to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit . This bit is returned to its reset state by the following events:
– Power-up – Write Disable (WRDI) instruction completion
– Write Status Register (WRSR) instruction
completion – Page Program (PP) instruction completion – Sector Erase (SE) instruction completion – Bulk Erase (BE) instruction completion
The Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits allow
part of the memory to be configured as read­only. This is the Software Protected Mode (SPM).
The Write Protect (W) signal allows the Block
Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits and Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit to be protected. This is the Hardware Protected Mode (HPM).
In addition to the low power consumption
feature, the Deep Power-down mode offers extra software protection from inadvertant Write, Program and Erase instructions, as all instructions are ignored except one particular instruction (the Release from Deep Power­down instruction).

Hold Condition
The Hold (HOLD
) signal is used to pause any se­rial communications with the device without reset­ting the clocking sequence. However, taking this signal Low does not terminate any Write Status Register, Program or Erase cycle that is currently in progress.
To enter the Hold condition, the device must be selecte d, w it h C h ip Select ( S
) Low.
The Hold condition starts on the falling edge of the Hold (HOLD
) signal, provided that this coincides with Serial Clock (C) being Low (as shown in Fig­ure 6).
The Hold condition ends on the rising edge of the Hold (HOLD
) signal, provided that this coincides with Serial Clock (C) being Low.
If the falling edge does not coincide with Serial Clock (C) being Low, the Hold condition starts af­ter Serial Clock (C) next goes Low. Similarly, if the
rising edge does not coincide with Serial Clock (C) being Low, the Hold condition ends after Serial Clock (C) next goes Low. (This is shown in Figure
6). During the Hold condition, the Serial Data Output
(Q) is high impedanc e, and Serial D ata Input (D) and Serial Clock (C) are Don’t Care.
Normally, the device is kept selected, with C hip Select (S
) driven Low, for the whole duration of the Hold condition. This is to en sure that the state of the internal logic remains unchanged from the mo­ment of entering the Hold condition.
If Chip Select (S
) goes High while the d ev ice is in the Hold condition, this has the effect of reset ting the internal logic of the device. To restart commu­nication with the device, it is necessary to drive Hold (HOLD
) High, and then to drive Chip Select
(S
) Low. This prevents the device from going back
to the Hold condition.

INSTRUCTIONS
All instructions, addresses and data are shifted in and out of the device, most significant bit first.
Serial Data Input (D) is sampled on the first rising edge of Serial Clock (C) a fter Chip Select (S
) is driven Low. Then, the one-byte instruction code must be shifted in to the device, most significant bit first, on Serial Data Input (D), each bit being latched on the rising edges of Serial Clock (C).
The instruction set is listed in Table 4. Every instruction sequence starts with a one-byte
instruction code. Depending on the instruction, this might be followed by address bytes, or by data bytes, or by both or none. Chip Select (S
) must be driven High after the last bit of the instruction se­quence has been shifted in.
In the case of a Read Data Bytes (READ), Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (Fast_Read), Read Status Register (RDSR) or Release from Deep Power-down, and Read Electronic Signature
(RES) instruction, the shifted-in instruction se­quence is followed by a data-out sequ ence. Chip Selec t (S
) can be driven High after any bit of the
data-out sequence is being shifted out. In the case of a Page Program (PP), Sector Erase
(SE), Bulk Erase (BE), Write Status Register (WRSR), Write Enable (WREN), Write Disable (WRDI) or Deep Power-down (DP) instruction, Chip Sele ct (S
) must be driven High exactly at a byte boundary, otherwise the inst ruction is reject­ed, and is not executed. That is, Chip Select (S
) must driven High when the number of clock pulses after Chip Select (S
) being driven Low is an exact
multiple of eight. All attempts to access the memory array during a
Write Status Register cycle, Program cycle or Erase cycle are ignored, and the internal Write Status Register cycle, Program cycle or Erase cy­cle continues unaffected.
