8 Mbit SPI Serial Flash
SST25VF080B
Data Sheet
Instructions
Instructions are used to read, write (Erase and Program),
and configure the SST25VF080B. The instruction bus
cycles are 8 bits each for commands (Op Code), data, and
addresses. Prior to executing any Byte-Program, Auto
Address Increment (AAI) programming, Sector-Erase,
Block-Erase, Write-Status-Register, or Chip-Erase instruc-
tions, the Write-Enable (WREN) instruction must be exe-
cuted first. The complete list of instructions is provided in
Table 5. All instructions are synchronized off a high to low
transition of CE#. Inputs will be accepted on the rising edge
of SCK starting with the most significant bit. CE# must be
driven low before an instruction is entered and must be
driven high after the last bit of the instruction has been
shifted in (except for Read, Read-ID, and Read-Status-
Register instructions). Any low to high transition on CE#,
before receiving the last bit of an instruction bus cycle, will
terminate the instruction in progress and return the device
to standby mode. Instruction commands (Op Code),
addresses, and data are all input from the most significant
bit (MSB) first.

1. One bus cycle is eight clock periods.
2. Address bits above the most significant bit of each density can be VIL or VIH.
3. 4KByte Sector Erase addresses: use AMS-A12, remaining addresses are don’t care but must be set either at VIL or VIH.
4. 32KByte Block Erase addresses: use AMS-A15, remaining addresses are don’t care but must be set either at VIL or VIH.
5. 64KByte Block Erase addresses: use AMS-A16, remaining addresses are don’t care but must be set either at VIL or VIH.
6. To continue programming to the next sequential address location, enter the 8-bit command, ADH, followed by 2 bytes of data to be
programmed. Data Byte 0 will be programmed into the initial address [A23-A1] with A0=0, Data Byte 1 will be programmed into the
initial address [A23-A1] with A0=1.
7. The Read-Status-Register is continuous with ongoing clock cycles until terminated by a low to high transition on CE#.
8. Manufacturer’s ID is read with A0=0, and Device ID is read with A0=1. All other address bits are 00H. The Manufacturer’s ID and
device ID output stream is continuous until terminated by a low-to-high transition on CE#.
