00 — Overview

What the W25Q16JV family does

The W25Q16JVx is a 16-Mbit serial flash memory supporting dual and quad SPI modes for industrial and industrial plus grades. It operates on a single 3-V supply with a 100-MHz maximum clock speed and 1.6-Mbyte per second read rates. The device features 1.8-V to 3.6-V tolerance and includes block-level write protection. Engineers typically use this component for code storage, configuration data retention, and non-volatile parameter storage in embedded systems requiring high endurance and fast access times.
