This datasheet introduces the features and characteristics of Silicon Storage Technology, Inc. SuperFlash 8-bit Serial Flash Memory
The SST25VF016B is a 16 Mbit SPI serial flash memory offering low‑power operation, high‑speed 50 MHz clocking, and robust reliability. It supports single‑voltage read/write (2.7‑3.6 V) and provides uniform erase sectors of 4 KB, 32 KB and 64 KB.
The device is available in 8‑lead SOIC and 8‑contact WSON packages and includes features such as a HOLD# pin for pausing communication, software write protection, and a status register that reports busy, write‑enable, and block‑protection states.
