4 Mbit SPI Serial Flash
SST25VF040B
Data Sheet
Read-ID (RDID)
The Read-ID instruction (RDID) identifies the devices as
SST25VF040B and manufacturer as SST. This command
is backward compatible to all SST25xFxxxA devices and
should be used as default device identification when multi-
ple versions of SPI Serial Flash devices are used in a
design. The device information can be read from executing
an 8-bit command, 90H or ABH, followed by address bits
[A23-A0]. Following the Read-ID instruction, the manufac-
turer’s ID is located in address 00000H and the device ID is
located in address 00001H. Once the device is in Read-ID
mode, the manufacturer’s and device ID output data tog-
gles between address 00000H and 00001H until termi-
nated by a low to high transition on CE#.
Refer to Tables 6 and 7 for device identification data.

Note: The manufacturer's and device ID output stream is continuous until terminated by a low to high transition on CE#.
Device ID = 8DH for SST25VF040B
1. 00H will output the manfacturer's ID first and 01H will output device ID first before toggling between the two.
