The SST26VF016B Serial Quad I/O (SQI) flash device utilizes a 4-bit multiplexed I/O serial interface to boost performance while maintaining the compact form factor of standard serial flash devices. SST26VF016B also support full command-set compatibility to traditional Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol. Operating at frequencies reaching 104 MHz, the SST26VF016B enables minimum latency execute-in-place (XIP) capability without the need for code shadowing on an SRAM. The device’s high performance and reliability make it the ideal choice for Network Appliance, DSL and Cable Modems, Wireless Lan, Computing, Digital TV, Smart Meter, Server, Set Top Box, Automotive and other Industrial applications. Further benefits are achieved with SST’s proprietary, high-performance CMOS SuperFlash? technology, which significantly improves performance and reliability, and lowers power consumption for high bandwidth, compact designs.
