1.8V Serial Quad I/O (SQI) Flash Memory
SST26WF032
The SST26WF032 Serial Quad I/O™ (SQI™) flash device utilizes a 4-bit mul-
tiplexed I/O serial interface to boost performance while maintaining the com-
pact form factor of standard serial flash devices. Operating at frequencies
reaching 80 MHz, the SST26WF032 enables minimum latency execute-in-
place (XIP) capability without the need for code shadowing on an SRAM. The
device’s high performance and small footprint make it the ideal choice for
mobile handsets, Bluetooth headsets, optical disk drives, GPS applications
and other portable electronic products. Further benefits are achieved with
SST’s proprietary, high-performance CMOS SuperFlash® technology, which
significantly improves performance and reliabilit y, and lowers power consump-
tion for high bandwidth, compact designs.

1.8V Serial Quad I/O (SQI) Flash Memory
SST26WF032
Advance Information
Product Description
The Serial Quad I/O™ (SQI™) family of flash-memory devices features a 4-bit, multiplexed I/O inter-
face that allows for low-power, high-performance operation in a low pin-count package. System
designs using SQI flash devices occupy less board space and ultimately lower system costs.
All members of the 26 Series, SQI family are manufactured with SST proprietary, high-performance
CMOS SuperFlash® technology. The split-gate cell design and thick-oxide tunneling injector attain bet-
ter reliability and manufacturability compared with alternate approaches.
The SST26WF032 significantly improves performance and reliability, while lowering power consump-
tion. This device writes (Program or Erase) with a single power supply of 1.65-1.95V. The total energy
consumed is a function of the applied voltage, current, and time of application. Since for any given volt-
age range, the SuperFlash technology uses less current to program and has a shorter erase time, the
total energy consumed during any Erase or Program operation is less than alternative flash memory
technologies.
SST26WF032 is offered in both 8-contact WSON (6 mm x 5 mm), and 8-lead SOIC (200 mil) pack-
ages. See Figure 2 for pin assignments.

Device Operation
The SST26WF032 supports both Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus protocol and the new 4-bit mul-
tiplexed Serial Quad I/O (SQI) bus protocol. To provide backward compatibility to traditional SPI Serial
Flash devices, the devices initial state after a power-on reset is SPI bus protocol supporting only
Read, High Speed Read, and JEDEC-ID Read instructions. A command instruction configures the
device to Serial Quad I/O bus protocol. The dataflow in this bus protocol is controlled with four multi-
plexed I/O signals, a chip enable (CE#), and serial clock (SCK).
SQI Flash Memory protocol supports both Mode 0 (0,0) and Mode 3 (1,1) bus operations. The differ-
ence between the two modes, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, is the state of the SCK signal when the
bus master is in Stand-by mode and no data is being transferred. The SCK signal is low for Mode 0
and SCK signal is high for Mode 3. For both modes, the Serial Data I/O (SIO[3:0]) is sampled at the ris-
ing edge of the SCK clock signal for input, and driven after the falling edge of the SCK clock signal for
output. The traditional SPI protocol uses separate input (SI) and output (SO) data signals as shown in
Figure 4. The SST26WF032 uses four multiplexed signals, SIO[3:0], for both data in and data out, as
shown in Figure 5. This quadruples the traditional bus transfer speed at the same clock frequency,
without the need for more pins on the package.

Device Protection
The SST26WF032 has a Block-Protection register which provides a software mechanism to write-lock
the array and write-lock, and/or read-lock, the parameter blocks. The Block-Protection Register is 80
bits wide per device: two bits each for the eight 8 KByte parameter blocks (write-lock and read-lock),
and one bit each for the remaining 32 KByte and 64 KByte overlay blocks (write-lock). See Table 8 for
address range protected per register bit.
Each bit in the Block-Protection Register can be written to a ‘1’ (protected) or ‘0’ (unprotected). For the
parameter blocks, the most significant bit is for read-lock, and the least significant bit is for write-lock. Read-
locking the parameter blocks provides additional security for sensitive data after retrieval (e.g., after initial
boot). If a block is read-locked all reads to the block return data 00H. All blocks are write-locked and read-
unlocked after power-up. The Write Block Locking Register command is a two cycle command requiring
Write-Enable (WREN) to be executed prior to the Write Block-Protection Register command.

Write-Protection Lock-Down
To prevent changes, the Block-Protection register can be set to Write-Protection Lock-Down using the
Lock Down Block Protection Register (LPBR) command. Once the Write-Protection Lock-Down is
enabled, the Block-Protection register can not be changed. To avoid inadvertent lock down, the WREN
command must be executed prior to the LBPR command.
To reset Write-Protection Lock-Down, power cycle the device. The Write-Protection Lock-Down status
may be read from the Status register.
Security ID
SST26WF032 offers a 256-bit Security ID (Sec ID) feature. The Security ID space is divided into two
parts – one factory-programmed, 64-bit segment and one user-programmable 192-bit segment. The
factory-programmed segment is programmed at SST with a unique number and cannot be changed.
The user-programmable segment is left unprogrammed for the customer to program as desired.
Use the SecID Program command to program the Security ID using the address shown in Table 7.
Once programmed, the Security ID can be locked using the Lockout Sec ID command. This prevents
any future write to the Security ID.
The factory-programmed portion of the Security ID can’t be programmed by the user; neither factor-
programmed nor user-programmable areas can be erased.

Status Register
The Status register is a read-only register that provides status on whether the flash memory array is
available for any Read or Write operation, whether the device is Write enabled, and whether an erase
or program operation is suspended. During an internal Erase or Program operation, the Status register
may be read to determine the completion of an operation in progress. Table 2 describes the function of
each bit in the Status register.

Advance Information
Write-Enable Latch (WEL)
The Write-Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the internal memory’s Write-Enable Latch. If
the WEL bit is set to ‘1’, the device is write enabled. If the bit is set to ‘0’ (reset), the device is not write
enabled and does not accept any memory Program or Erase, Protection Register Write, or Lock-Down
commands. The Write-Enable Latch bit is automatically reset under the following conditions:
Power-up
Reset

Page-Program instruction completion
Sector-Erase instruction completion
Block-Erase instruction completion
Chip-Erase instruction completion
Write-Block-Protection register instruction
Lock-Down Block-Protection register instruction
Program Security ID instruction completion
Lockout Security ID instruction completion
Write-Suspend instruction
Write Suspend Erase Status (WSE)
The Write Suspend-Erase Status (WSE) indicates when an Erase operation has been suspended. The
WSE bit is ‘1’ after the host issues a suspend command during an Erase operation. Once the sus-
pended Erase resumes, the WSE bit is reset to ‘0.
Write Suspend Program Status (WSP)
The Write Suspend-Program Status (WSP) bit indicates when a Program operation has been sus-
pended. The WSP is ‘1’ after the host issues a suspend command during the Program operation. Once
the suspended Program resumes, the WSP bit is reset to ‘0.
Write Protection Lockdown Status (WPLD)
The Write Protection-Lockdown Status (WPLD) bit indicates when the Block Protection register is
locked-down to prevent changes to the protection settings. The WPLD is ‘1’ after the host issues a
Lock-Down Block Protection command. After a power cycle, the WPLD bit is reset to ‘0.
Security ID Status (SEC)
The Security ID Status (SEC) bit indicates when the Security ID space is locked to prevent a Write
command. The SEC is ‘1’ after the host issues a Lockout SID command. Once the host issues a Lock-
out SID command, the SEC bit can never be reset to ‘0.
Busy
The Busy bit determines whether there is an internal Erase or Program operation in progress. If the
BUSY bit is ‘1’, the device is busy with an internal Erase or Program operation. If the bit is ‘0’, no Erase
or Program operation is in progress.

Instructions
Instructions are used to read, write (erase and program), and configure the SST26WF032. The
instruction bus cycles are two nibbles each for commands (Op Code), data, and addresses. Prior to
executing any write instructions, the Write-Enable (WREN) instruction must be executed. The com-
plete list of the instructions is provided in Table 3.
All instructions are synchronized off a high to low transition of CE#. Inputs are accepted on the rising
edge of SCK starting with the most significant nibble. CE# must be driven low before an instruction is
entered and must be driven high after the last nibble of the instruction has been input (except for read
instructions). Any low-to-high transition on CE# before receiving the last nibble of an instruction bus
cycle, will terminate the instruction being entered and return the device to the standby mode.

Advance Information
Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST)
The Reset operation is used as a system (software) reset that puts the device in normal operating
Ready mode. This operation consists of two commands: Reset-Enable (RSTEN) and Reset (RST).
To reset the SST26WF032, the host drives CE# low, sends the Reset-Enable command (66H), and
drives CE# high. Next, the host drives CE# low again, sends the Reset command (99H), and drives
CE# high, see Figure 7.
The Reset operation requires the Reset-Enable command followed by the Reset command. Any com-
mand other than the Reset command after the Reset-Enable command will disable the Reset-Enable.
A successful command execution will reset the burst length to 8 Bytes and all the bits in the Status reg-
ister to their default states, except for bit 4 (WPLD) and bit 5 (SEC). A device reset during an active
Program or Erase operation aborts the operation, which can cause the data of the targeted address
range to be corrupted or lost. Depending on the prior operation, the reset timing may vary. Recovery
from a Write operation requires more latency time than recovery from other operations.

Advance Information
Read (25 MHz)
The Read instruction, 03H, is supported in SPI bus protocol only with clock frequencies up to 25 MHz.
This command is not supported in SQI bus protocol. The device outputs the data starting from the
specified address location, then continuously streams the data output through all addresses until ter-
minated by a low-to-high transition on CE#. The internal address pointer will automatically increment
until the highest memory address is reached. Once the highest memory address is reached, the
address pointer will automatically return to the beginning (wrap-around) of the address space.
Initiate the Read instruction by executing an 8-bit command, 03H, followed by address bits A23:A0.
CE# must remain active low for the duration of the Read cycle. SIO2 and SIO3 must be driven VIH for
the duration of the Read cycle. See Figure 8 for Read Sequence.
Figure 8: Read Sequence (SPI)
Enable Quad I/O (EQIO)
The Enable Quad I/O (EQIO) instruction, 38H, enables the flash device for SQI bus operation. upon
completion of the instruction, all instructions thereafter will be 4-bit multiplexed input/output until a
power cycle or a “Reset Quad I/O instruction” is executed. See Figure 9.

Advance Information
Reset Quad I/O (RSTQIO)
The Reset Quad I/O instruction, FFH, resets the device to 1-bit SPI protocol operation. To execute a
Reset Quad I/O operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Reset Quad I/O command cycle (FFH)
then, drives CE# high. The device accepts either SPI (8 clocks) or SQI (2 clocks) command cycles. For
SPI, SIO[3:1] are don’t care for this command, but should be driven to VIH or VIL.
High-Speed Read (80 MHz)
The High-Speed Read instruction, 0BH, is supported in both SPI bus protocol and SQI protocol. On
power-up, the device is set to use SPI.
Initiate High-Speed Read by executing an 8-bit command, 0BH, followed by address bits [A23-A0] and
a dummy byte. CE# must remain active low for the duration of the High-Speed Read cycle. SIO2 and
SIO3 must be driven VIH for the duration of the Read cycle. See Figure 10 for the High-Speed Read
sequence for SPI bus protocol.
Figure 10:High-Speed Read Sequence (SPI)
In SQI protocol, the host drives CE# low then send the Read command cycle command, 0BH, followed by three
address cycles and two dummy cycles. Each cycle is two nibbles (clocks) long, most significant nibble first.
After the dummy cycles, the 1.8V Serial Quad I/O (SQI) Flash Memory outputs data on the falling
edge of the SCK signal starting from the specified address location. The device continually streams
data output through all addresses until terminated by a low-to-high transition on CE#. The internal
address pointer automatically increments until the highest memory address is reached, at which point
the address pointer returns to address location 000000H.
During this operation, blocks that are Read-locked will output data 00H.

Set Burst
The Set Burst command specifies the number of bytes to be output during a Read Burst command
before the device wraps around. To set the burst length the host drives CE# low, sends the Set Burst
command cycle (C0H) and one data cycle, then drives CE# high. A cycle is two nibbles, or two clocks,
long, most significant nibble first. After power-up or reset, the burst length is set to eight Bytes (00H).
See Table 4 for burst length data and Figure 12 for the sequence.
Figure 12:Set Burst Length Sequence
Read Burst
To execute a Read Burst operation the host drives CE# low, then sends the Read Burst command
cycle (0CH), followed by three address cycles, and then one dummy cycle. Each cycle is two nibbles
(clocks) long, most significant nibble first.
After the dummy cycle, the device outputs data on the falling edge of the SCK signal starting from the
specified address location. The data output stream is continuous through all addresses until termi-
nated by a low-to-high transition on CE#.
During Read Burst, the internal address pointer automatically increments until the last byte of the burst
is reached, then jumps to first byte of the burst. All bursts are aligned to addresses within the burst
length, see Table 5. For example, if the burst length is eight Bytes, and the start address is 06h, the
burst sequence would be: 06h, 07h, 00h, 01h, 02h, 03h, 04h, 05h, 06h, etc. The pattern would repeat
until the command was terminated by a low-to-high transition on CE#.
During this operation, blocks that are Read-locked will output data 00H.

JEDEC-ID Read (SPI Protocol)
Using traditional SPI protocol, the JEDEC-ID Read instruction identifies the device as SST26WF032
and the manufacturer as SST. To execute a JECEC-ID operation the host drives CE# low then sends
the JEDEC-ID command cycle (9FH). For SPI modes, each cycle is eight bits (clocks) long, most sig-
nificant bit first.
Immediately following the command cycle the device outputs data on the falling edge of the SCK sig-
nal. The data output stream is continuous until terminated by a low-to-high transition on CE#. The
device outputs three bytes of data: manufacturer, device type, and device ID, see Table 6. See Figure
13 for instruction sequence.

Quad J-ID Read (SQI Protocol)
The Quad J-ID Read instruction identifies the device as SST26WF032 and manufacturer as SST. To
execute a Quad J-ID operation the host drives CE# low and then sends the Quad J-ID command cycle
(AFH). Each cycle is two nibbles (clocks) long, most significant nibble first.
Immediately following the command cycle the device outputs data on the falling edge of the SCK sig-
nal. The data output stream is continuous until terminated by a low-to-high transition of CE#. The

Sector-Erase
The Sector-Erase instruction clears all bits in the selected 4 KByte sector to ‘1,’ but it does not change
a protected memory area. Prior to any write operation, the Write-Enable (WREN) instruction must be
executed.
To execute a Sector-Erase operation, the host drives CE# low, then sends the Sector Erase command
cycle (20H) and three address cycles, and then drives CE# high. Each cycle is two nibbles, or clocks,
long, most significant nibble first. Address bits [AMS:A12] (AMS = Most Significant Address) determine
the sector address (SAX); the remaining address bits can be VIL or VIH. Poll the BUSY bit in the Status

Block-Erase
The Block-Erase instruction clears all bits in the selected block to ‘1’. Block sizes can be 8 KByte, 32
KByte or 64 KByte depending on address, see Figure 3, Memory Map, for details. A Block-Erase
instruction applied to a protected memory area will be ignored. Prior to any write operation, execute
the WREN instruction. Keep CE# active low for the duration of any command sequence.
To execute a Block-Erase operation, the host drives CE# low then sends the Block-Erase command
cycle (D8H), three address cycles, then drives CE# high. Each cycle is two nibbles, or clocks, long,
most significant nibble first. Address bits AMS-A13 determine the block address; the remaining address
bits can be VIL or VIH. For 32 KByte blocks, A14:A13 can be VIL or VIH; for 64 KByte blocks, A15:A13 can
be VIL or VIH. Poll the BUSY bit in the Status register or wait TBE for the completion of the internal, self-

Chip-Erase
The Chip-Erase instruction clears all bits in the device to ‘1.’ The Chip-Erase instruction is ignored if
any of the memory area is protected. Prior to any write operation, execute the the WREN instruction.
To execute a Chip-Erase operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Chip-Erase command cycle

Page-Program
The Page-Program instruction programs up to 256 Bytes of data in the memory. The data for the
selected page address must be in the erased state (FFH) before initiating the Page-Program operation.
A Page-Program applied to a protected memory area will be ignored. Prior to the program operation,
execute the WREN instruction.
To execute a Page-Program operation, the host drives CE# low then sends the Page Program com-
mand cycle (02H), three address cycles followed by the data to be programmed, then drives CE# high.
The programmed data must be between 1 to 256 Bytes and in whole Byte increments; sending an odd
number of nibbles will cause the last nibble to be ignored. Each cycle is two nibbles (clocks) long, most
significant bit first. Poll the BUSY bit in the Status register or wait TPP for the completion of the internal,
self-timed, Page-Program operation. See Figure 18 for the Page-Program sequence.
When executing Page-Program, the memory range for the SST26WF032 is divided into 256 Byte page
boundaries. The device handles shifting of more than 256 Bytes of data by maintaining the last 256
Bytes of data as the correct data to be programmed. If the target address for the Page-Program
instruction is not the beginning of the page boundary (A7:A0 are not all zero), and the number of data
input exceeds or overlaps the end of the address of the page boundary, the excess data inputs wrap
around and will be programmed at the start of that target page.
Figure 18:Page-Program Sequence
Write-Suspend and Write-Resume
Write-Suspend allows the interruption of Sector-Erase, Block-Erase or Page-Program operations in
order to erase, program, or read data in another portion of memory. The original operation can be con-
tinued with the Write-Resume command.
Only one write operation can be suspended at a time; if an operation is already suspended, the device
will ignore the Write-Suspend command. Write-Suspend during Chip-Erase is ignored; Chip-Erase is
not a valid command while a write is suspended.
Write-Suspend During Sector-Erase or Block-Erase
Issuing a Write-Suspend instruction during Sector-Erase or Block-Erase allows the host to program or
read any sector that was not being erased. The device will ignore any programming commands point-
ing to the suspended sector(s). Any attempt to read from the suspended sector(s) will output unknown
data because the Sector- or Block-Erase will be incomplete.

Advance Information
To execute a Write-Suspend operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Write Suspend command
cycle (B0H), then drives CE# high. A cycle is two nibbles long, most significant nibble first. The Status
register indicates that the erase has been suspended by changing the WSE bit from ‘0’ to ‘1,’ but the
device will not accept another command until it is ready. To determine when the device will accept a
new command, poll the BUSY bit in the Status register or wait TWS.
Write Suspend During Page Programming
Issuing a Write-Suspend instruction during Page Programming allows the host to erase or read any
sector that is not being programmed. Erase commands pointing to the suspended sector(s) will be
ignored. Any attempt to read from the suspended page will output unknown data because the program
will be incomplete.
To execute a Write Suspend operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Write Suspend command
cycle (B0H), then drives CE# high. A cycle is two nibbles long, most significant nibble first. The Status
register indicates that the programming has been suspended by changing the WSP bit from ‘0’ to ‘1,
but the device will not accept another command until it is ready. To determine when the device will
accept a new command, poll the BUSY bit in the Status register or wait TWS.
Write-Resume
Write-Resume restarts a Write command that was suspended, and changes the suspend status bit in
the Status register (WSE or WSP) back to ‘0’.
To execute a Write-Resume operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Write Resume command
cycle (30H), then drives CE# high. A cycle is two nibbles long, most significant nibble first. To deter-
mine if the internal, self-timed Write operation completed, poll the BUSY bit in the Status register, or
wait the specified time TSE, TBE or TPP for Sector-Erase, Block-Erase, or Page-Programming, respec-
tively. The total write time before suspend and after resume will not exceed the uninterrupted write
times TSE, TBE or TPP
.
Read Security ID
To execute a Read Security ID (SID) operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Read Security ID
command cycle (88H), one address cycle, and then two dummy cycles. Each cycle is two nibbles long,
most significant nibble first.
After the dummy cycles, the device outputs data on the falling edge of the SCK signal, starting from the
specified address location. The data output stream is continuous through all SID addresses until termi-
nated by a low-to-high transition on CE#. The internal address pointer automatically increments until
the last SID address is reached, then outputs 00H until CE# goes high.

Program Security ID
The Program Security ID instruction programs one to 24 Bytes of data in the user-programmable,
Security ID space. The device ignores a Program Security ID instruction pointing to an invalid or pro-
tected address, see Table 7. Prior to the program operation, execute WREN.
To execute a Program SID operation, the host drives CE# low, sends the Program Security ID com-
mand cycle (A5H), one address cycle, the data to be programmed, then drives CE# high. The pro-
grammed data must be between 1 to 24 Bytes and in whole Byte increments; sending an odd number
of nibbles will cause the last nibble to be ignored. Each cycle is two nibbles long, most significant nib-
ble first. To determine the completion of the internal, self-timed Program SID operation, poll the BUSY
bit in the software status register, or wait TPSID for the completion of the internal self-timed Program
Security ID operation.
Lockout Security ID
The Lockout Security ID instruction prevents any future changes to the Security ID. To execute a Lock-
out SID, the host drives CE# low, sends the Lockout Security ID command cycle (85H), then drives
CE# high. A cycle is two nibbles long, most significant nibble first. The user map polls the BUSY bit in
the software status register or waits TPSID for the completion of he Lockout Security ID operation.
Read-Status Register (RDSR)
The Read-Status register (RDSR) command outputs the contents of the Status register. The Status register
may be read at any time even during a Write operation. When a Write is in progress, check the BUSY bit
before sending any new commands to assure that the new commands are properly received by the device.
To execute a Read-Status-Register operation the host drives CE# low, then sends the Read-Status-
Register command cycle (05H). Each cycle is two nibbles long, most significant nibble first. Immedi-
ately after the command cycle, the device outputs data on the falling edge of the SCK signal. The data
output stream continues until terminated by a low-to-high transition on CE#. See Figure 20 for the
RDSR instruction sequence.

Lockdown Block-Protection Register (LBPR)
The Lockdown Block-Protection Register instruction prevents changes to the Block-Protection Regis-
ter. Lockdown resets after power cycling; this allows the Block-Protection Register to be changed.
To execute a Lockdown Block-Protection Register, the host drives CE# low, then sends the Lockdown
Block-Protection Register command cycle (8DH), then drives CE# high. A cycle is two nibbles long,
most significant nibble first.
