Technical Specifications

The S29GL256P10TFI01 operates at a supply voltage of 3.0V. It uses a parallel interface for data access, enabling fast read and write operations. The device supports asynchronous read operation and page mode operation, which further enhances read performance. It employs a sector erase architecture, allowing for flexible memory management. The erase and program operations can be suspended and resumed, providing additional flexibility.

The S29GL256P10TFI01 is compliant with the Common Flash Interface (CFI) standard, ensuring compatibility with various systems. It has a guaranteed minimum data retention of 20 years and an endurance of 100,000 program/erase cycles per sector. The operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.

The Erase Suspend/Resume feature allows the erase operation to be paused and resumed later without losing data, which is essential in applications where the system cannot be interrupted for long periods of time. The Program Suspend/Resume feature provides similar functionality for program operations.

Spansion's (now Cypress/Infineon) S29GL256P10TFI01 is a high-performance, reliable, and low-power 256 Mbit NOR Flash memory device designed for embedded systems. Its fast read access times, flexible memory management features, and standardized interface make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
