GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The IS25LQ016 are 16 Mbit Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Flash memories, providing single-, dual or quad output. The devices are designed to support a 50 MHz fclock rate in normal read mode, and 104 MHz in fast read (Quad output is 100MHz), the fastest in the industry. The devices use a single low voltage power supply, ranging from 2.3 Volt to 3.6 Volt, to perform read, erase and program operations. The devices can be programmed in standard EPROM programmers.
