Micron MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT 256Mbit 133MHz 1.8V Serial NOR Flash Memory IC

Product Description Of MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT
MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT is a high-performance multiple input/output serial Flash memory device. MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT features a high-speed SPI-compatible bus interface, execute-in-place (XIP) functionality, advanced write protection mechanisms, and extended address access. MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT high-performance, dual and quad input/output commands enable double or quadruple the transfer bandwidth for READ and PROGRAM operations.
MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT device offers an advanced security protection scheme where each sector can be independently locked, by either volatile or nonvolatile locking features.
MT25QU256ABA1EW7-0SIT meets the needs of consumers in electronics, industrial, wired communications, and computing applications.
