Description
The M25P16 is a 16 Mbit (2 Mbit × 8) serial Flash memory, with advanced write protection
mechanisms, accessed by a high speed SPI-compatible bus.
The memory can be programmed 1 to 256 bytes at a time, using the Page Program
instruction.
The memory is organized as 32 sectors, each containing 256 pages. Each page is 256
bytes wide. Thus, the whole memory can be viewed as consisting of 8192 pages, or 2 097
152 bytes.
The whole memory can be erased using the Bulk Erase instruction, or a sector at a time,
using the Sector Erase instruction.
