00 — Overview

What the GD25Q32 does

The GD25Q32Ex family comprises dual and quad serial flash memory devices available in 32 Mbit capacity. These parts support SPI, Dual I/O, and Quad I/O interfaces with speeds up to 104 MHz. They feature a 2.7 V to 3.6 V operating voltage, 100,000 program/erase cycles endurance, and 20-year data retention. The devices include a 32KB block erase function and deep power-down mode for low standby current. Engineers typically use these components in embedded systems requiring high-speed code storage, configuration data retention, and non-volatile parameter storage across industrial and commercial applications.
