DEVICE OPERATION
SPI Mode
Standard SPI
The GD25Q80 features a serial peripheral interface on 4 signals bus: Serial Clock (SCLK), Chip Select (CS#), Serial
Data Input (SI) and Serial Data Output (SO). Both SPI bus mode 0 and 3 are supported. Input data is latched on the rising
edge of SCLK and data shifts out on the falling edge of SCLK.
Dual SPI
The GD25Q80 supports Dual SPI operation when using the “Dual Output Fast Read” and “Dual I/O Fast Read” (3BH
and BBH) commands. These commands allow data to be transferred to or from the device at two times the rate of the
standard SPI. When using the Dual SPI command the SI and SO pins become bidirectional I/O pins: IO0 and IO1.
Quad SPI
The GD25Q80 supports Quad SPI operation when using the “Quad Output Fast Read”,” Quad I/O Fast Read”, “Quad
I/O Word Fast Read” (6BH, EBH, E7H) commands. These commands allow data to be transferred to or from the device at
four times the rate of the standard SPI. When using the Quad SPI command the SI and SO pins become bidirectional I/O
pins: IO0 and IO1, and WP# and HOLD# pins become IO2 and IO3. Quad SPI commands require the non-volatile Quad
Enable bit (QE) in Status Register to be set.
Hold
The HOLD# signal goes low to stop any serial communications with the device, but doesn’t stop the operation of write
status register, programming, or erasing in progress. http://www.DataSheet4U.net/
The operation of HOLD, need CS# keep low, and starts on falling edge of the HOLD# signal, with SCLK signal being
low (if SCLK is not being low, HOLD operation will not start until SCLK being low). The HOLD condition ends on rising edge
of HOLD# signal with SCLK being low (If SCLK is not being low, HOLD operation will not end until SCLK being low).
The SO is high impedance, both SI and SCLK don’t care during the HOLD operation, if CS# drives high during HOLD
operation, it will reset the internal logic of the device. To re-start communication with chip, the HOLD# must be at high and
then CS# must be at low.

Data Protection
The GD25Q80 provide the following data protection methods:
◆ Write Enable (WREN) command: The WREN command is set the Write Enable Latch bit (WEL). The WEL bit will
return to reset by the following situation:
-Power-Up
-Write Disable (WRDI)
-Write Status Register (WRSR)
-Page Program (PP)
-Sector Erase (SE)
-Block Erase (BE)
-Chip Erase (CE)
◆ Software Protection Mode: The Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits define the section of the memory
array that can be read but not change.
◆ Hardware Protection Mode: WP# going low to protected the BP0~BP4 bits and SRP0~1 bits.
◆ Deep Power-Down Mode: In Deep Power-Down Mode, all commands are ignored except the Release from Deep
Power-Down Mode command.

Status Register
S15-S10 S9 S8 S7 S6 S5 S4 S3 S2 S1 S0
Reserved QE SRP1 SRP0 BP4 BP3 BP2 BP1 BP0 WEL WIP
The status and control bits of the Status Register are as follows:
WIP bit.
The Write In Progress (WIP) bit indicates whether the memory is busy in program/erase/write status register progress.
When WIP bit sets to 1, means the device is busy in program/erase/write status register progress, when WIP bit sets 0,
means the device is not in program/erase/write status register progress.
WEL bit.
The Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit indicates the status of the internal Write Enable Latch. When set to 1 the internal
Write Enable Latch is set, when set to 0 the internal Write Enable Latch is reset and no Write Status Register, Program or
Erase command is accepted.
BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0 bits.
The Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits are non-volatile. They define the size of the area to be software
protected against Program and Erase commands. These bits are written with the Write Status Register (WRSR) command.
When the Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits are set to 1, the relevant memory area (as defined in
Table1).becomes protected against Page Program (PP), Sector Erase (SE) and Block Erase (BE) commands. The Block
Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0) bits can be written provided that the Hardware Protected mode has not been set. The
Chip Erase (CE) command is executed, only if the Block Protect (BP2, BP1, BP0) bits are 0.
SRP1, SRP0 bits.
The Status Register Protect (SRP1 and SRP0) bits are non-volatile Read/Write bits in the status register. The SRP
bits control the method of write protection: software protection, hardware protection, power supply lock-down or one time
programmable protection.
SRP1 SRP0 #WP Status Register Description
The Status Register can be written to after a Write Enable
0 0 X Software Protected
command, WEL=1.(Default)
WP#=0, the Status Register locked and can not be written to.
0 1 0 Hardware Protected
WP#=1, the Status Register is unlocked and can be written to

after a Write Enable command, WEL=1.
Status Register is protected and can not be written to again
1 0 X Power Supply Lock-Down(1)
until the next Power-Down, Power-Up cycle.(2)
Status Register is permanently protected and can not be
1 1 X One Time Program(1)
written to.
NOTE:
1. When SRP1, SRP0= (1, 0), a Power-Down, Power-Up cycle will change SRP1, SRP0 to (0, 0) state.
QE bit.
The Quad Enable (QE) bit is a non-volatile Read/Write bit in the Status Register that allows Quad operation. When
the QE bit is set to 0 (Default) the WP# pin and HOLD# pin are enable. When the QE pin is set to 1, the Quad IO2 and IO3
pins are enabled. (The QE bit should never be set to 1 during standard SPI or Dual SPI operation if the WP# or HOLD#
pins are tied directly to the power supply or ground)

COMMANDS DESCRIPTION
All commands, addresses and data are shifted in and out of the device, beginning with the most significant bit on the
first rising edge of SCLK after CS# is driven low. Then, the one-byte command code must be shifted in to the device, most
significant bit first on SI, each bit being latched on the rising edges of SCLK.
See Table2, every command sequence starts with a one-byte command code. Depending on the command, this
might be followed by address bytes, or by data bytes, or by both or none. CS# must be driven high after the last bit of the
command sequence has been shifted in. For the command of Read, Fast Read, Read Status Register or Release from
Deep Power-Down, and Read Device ID, the shifted-in command sequence is followed by a data-out sequence. CS# can
be driven high after any bit of the data-out sequence is being shifted out.
For the command of Page Program, Sector Erase, Block Erase, Chip Erase, Write Status Register, Write Enable,
Write Disable or Deep Power-Down command, CS# must be driven high exactly at a byte boundary, otherwise the
command is rejected, and is not executed. That is CS# must driven high when the number of clock pulses after CS# being
driven low is an exact multiple of eight. For Page Program, if at any time the input byte is not a full byte, nothing will happen
and WEL will not be reset.

Write Enable (WREN) (06H)

The Write Enable (WREN) command is for setting the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The Write Enable Latch (WEL)
bit must be set prior to every Page Program (PP), Sector Erase (SE), Block Erase (BE), Chip Erase (CE) and Write Status
Register (WRSR) command. The Write Enable (WREN) command sequence: CS# goes low Æ sending the Write Enable

Read Status Register (RDSR) (05H or 35H)

The Read Status Register (RDSR) command is for reading the Status Register. The Status Register may be read at
any time, even while a Program, Erase or Write Status Register cycle is in progress. When one of these cycles is in
progress, it is recommended to check the Write In Progress (WIP) bit before sending a new command to the device. It is
also possible to read the Status Register continuously. For command code “05H”, the SO will output Status Register bits
S7~S0. The command code “35H”, the SO will output Status Register bits S15~S8.

Write Status Register (WRSR) (01H)

The Write Status Register (WRSR) command allows new values to be written to the Status Register. Before it can be
accepted, a Write Enable (WREN) command must previously have been executed. After the Write Enable (WREN)
command has been decoded and executed, the device sets the Write Enable Latch (WEL).
The Write Status Register (WRSR) command has no effect on S15~S10, S1 and S0 of the Status Register. CS# must
be driven high after the eighth or sixteen bit of the data byte has been latched in. If not, the Write Status Register (WRSR)
command is not executed. If CS# is driven high after eighth bit of the data byte, the QE and SRP1 bits will be cleared to 0.
As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Write Status Register cycle (whose duration is tW) is initiated. While the Write
Status Register cycle is in progress, the Status Register may still be read to check the value of the Write In Progress (WIP)
bit. The Write In Progress (WIP) bit is 1 during the self-timed Write Status Register cycle, and is 0 when it is completed.
When the cycle is completed, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) is reset.
The Write Status Register (WRSR) command allows the user to change the values of the Block Protect (BP4, BP3,
BP2, BP1, BP0) bits, to define the size of the area that is to be treated as read-only, as defined in Table1. The Write Status
Register (WRSR) command also allows the user to set or reset the Status Register Protect (SRP1 and SRP0) bits in
accordance with the Write Protect (WP#) signal. The Status Register Protect (SRP1 and SRP0) bits and Write Protect
(WP#) signal allow the device to be put in the Hardware Protected Mode. The Write Status Register (WRSR) command is
not executed once the Hardware Protected Mode is entered.

Read Data Bytes (READ) (03H)

The Read Data Bytes (READ) command is followed by a 3-byte address (A23-A0), each bit being latched-in during
the rising edge of SCLK. Then the memory content, at that address, is shifted out on SO, each bit being shifted out, at a
Max frequency fR, during the falling edge of SCLK. The first byte addressed can be at any location. The address is
automatically incremented to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out. The whole memory can,
therefore, be read with a single Read Data Bytes (READ) command. Any Read Data Bytes (READ) command, while an
Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is rejected without having any effects on the cycle that is in progress.

Read Data Bytes At Higher Speed (Fast Read) (0BH)

The Read Data Bytes at Higher Speed (Fast Read) command is for quickly reading data out. It is followed by a 3-byte
address (A23-A0) and a dummy byte, each bit being latched-in during the rising edge of SCLK. Then the memory content,
at that address, is shifted out on SO, each bit being shifted out, at a Max frequency fC, during the falling edge of SCLK. The
first byte addressed can be at any location. The address is automatically incremented to the next higher address after each

Dual I/O Fast Read (BBH)

The Dual I/O Fast Read command is similar to the Dual Output Fast Read command but with the capability to input
the 3-byte address (A23-0) and a “Continuous Read Mode” byte 2-bit per clock by SI and SO, each bit being latched in
during the rising edge of SCLK, then the memory contents are shifted out 2-bit per clock cycle from SI and SO. The
command sequence is shown in followed Figure10. The first byte addressed can be at any location. The address is
automatically incremented to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out. To ensure optimum
performance the High Performance Mode (HPM) command (A3H) must be executed once, prior to the Dual I/O Fast Read
command.
Dual I/O Fast Read With “Continuous Read Mode”
The Dual I/O Fast Read command can further reduce command overhead through setting the “Continuous Read
Mode” bits (M7-0) after the input 3-byte address (A23-A0). If the “Continuous Read Mode” bits (M7-0) =AXH, then the next

Quad I/O Fast Read (EBH)

The Quad I/O Fast Read command is similar to the Dual I/O Fast Read command but with the capability to input the
3-byte address (A23-0) and a “Continuous Read Mode” byte and 4-dummy clock 4-bit per clock by IO0, IO1, IO3, IO4, each
bit being latched in during the rising edge of SCLK, then the memory contents are shifted out 4-bit per clock cycle from IO0,
IO1, IO2, IO3. The command sequence is shown in followed Figure12. The first byte addressed can be at any location. The
address is automatically incremented to the next higher address after each byte of data is shifted out. The Quad Enable bit
(QE) of Status Register (S9) must be set to enable for the Quad I/O Fast read command. To ensure optimum performance
the High Performance Mode (HPM) command (A3H) must be executed once, prior to the Quad I/O Fast Read command.
Quad I/O Fast Read With “Continuous Read Mode”
The Quad I/O Fast Read command can further reduce command overhead through setting the “Continuous Read
Mode” bits (M7-0) after the input 3-byte address (A23-A0). If the “Continuous Read Mode” bits (M7-0) =AXH, then the next
Quad I/O Fast Read command (after CS# is raised and then lowered) does not require the EBH command code. The
command sequence is shown in followed Figure13. If the “Continuous Read Mode” bits (M7-0) are any value other than

Page Program (PP) (02H)

The Page Program (PP) command is for programming the memory. A Write Enable (WREN) command must
previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Page Program command.
The Page Program (PP) command is entered by driving CS# Low, followed by the command code, three address
bytes and at least one data byte on SI. If the 8 least significant address bits (A7-A0) are not all zero, all transmitted data
that goes beyond the end of the current page are programmed from the start address of the same page (from the address
whose 8 least significant bits (A7-A0) are all zero). CS# must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence. The
Page Program command sequence: CS# goes low Æ sending Page Program command Æ 3-byte address on SI Æ at least
1 byte data on SI Æ CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure16. If more than 256 bytes are sent to the
device, previously latched data are discarded and the last 256 data bytes are guaranteed to be programmed correctly
within the same page. If less than 256 data bytes are sent to device, they are correctly programmed at the requested
addresses without having any effects on the other bytes of the same page. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of
the last data byte has been latched in; otherwise the Page Program (PP) command is not executed.
As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Page Program cycle (whose duration is tPP) is initiated. While the Page
Program cycle is in progress, the Status Register may be read to check the value of the Write In Progress (WIP) bit. The
Write In Progress (WIP) bit is 1 during the self-timed Page Program cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some
unspecified time before the cycle is completed, the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit is reset.
A Page Program (PP) command applied to a page which is protected by the Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, BP0)
is not executed.

Deep Power-Down (DP) (B9H)

Executing the Deep Power-Down (DP) command is the only way to put the device in the lowest consumption mode
(the Deep Power-Down Mode). It can also be used as an extra software protection mechanism, while the device is not in
active use, since in this mode, the device ignores all Write, Program and Erase commands. Driving CS# high deselects the
device, and puts the device in the Standby Mode (if there is no internal cycle currently in progress). But this mode is not the
Deep Power-Down Mode. The Deep Power-Down Mode can only be entered by executing the Deep Power-Down (DP)
command. Once the device has entered the Deep Power-Down Mode, all commands are ignored except the Release from
Deep Power-Down and Read Device ID (RDI) command. This releases the device from this mode. The Release from Deep
Power-Down and Read Device ID (RDI) command also allows the Device ID of the device to be output on SO.
The Deep Power-Down Mode automatically stops at Power-Down, and the device always Power-Up in the Standby
Mode. The Deep Power-Down (DP) command is entered by driving CS# low, followed by the command code on SI. CS#
must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence.
The Deep Power-Down command sequence: CS# goes low Æ sending Deep Power-Down command Æ CS# goes
high. The command sequence is shown in Figure22. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of the command code has
been latched in; otherwise the Deep Power-Down (DP) command is not executed. As soon as CS# is driven high, it
requires a delay of tDP before the supply current is reduced to ICC2 and the Deep Power-Down Mode is entered. Any Deep
Power-Down (DP) command, while an Erase, Program or Write cycle is in progress, is rejected without having any effects
on the cycle that is in progress.

Release From Deep Power-Down Or High Performance Mode And Read Device ID (RDI) (ABH)
The Release from Power-Down or High Performance Mode / Device ID command is a multi-purpose command. It can be
used to release the device from the Power-Down state or High Performance Mode or obtain the devices electronic
identification (ID) number.
To release the device from the Power-Down state or High Performance Mode, the command is issued by driving the
CS# pin low, shifting the instruction code “ABH” and driving CS# high as shown in Figure23. Release from Power-Down
will take the time duration of tRES1 (See AC Characteristics) before the device will resume normal operation and other
command are accepted. The CS# pin must remain high during the tRES1 time duration.
When used only to obtain the Device ID while not in the Power-Down state, the command is initiated by driving the
CS# pin low and shifting the instruction code “ABH” followed by 3-dummy byte. The Device ID bits are then shifted out on
the falling edge of SCLK with most significant bit (MSB) first as shown in Figure23. The Device ID value for the GD25Q80
is listed in Manufacturer and Device Identification table. The Device ID can be read continuously. The command is
completed by driving CS# high.
When used to release the device from the Power-Down state and obtain the Device ID, the command is the same
as previously described, and shown in Figure23, except that after CS# is driven high it must remain high for a time
duration of tRES2 (See AC Characteristics). After this time duration the device will resume normal operation and other
command will be accepted. If the Release from Power-Down / Device ID command is issued while an Erase, Program or
Write cycle is in process (when WIP equal 1) the command is ignored and will not have any effects on the current cycle.

Read Identification (RDID) (9FH)

The Read Identification (RDID) command allows the 8-bit manufacturer identification to be read, followed by two
bytes of device identification. The device identification indicates the memory type in the first byte, and the memory capacity
of the device in the second byte. Any Read Identification (RDID) command while an Erase or Program cycle is in progress,
is not decoded, and has no effect on the cycle that is in progress. The Read Identification (RDID) command should not be
issued while the device is in Deep Power-Down Mode.
The device is first selected by driving CS# to low. Then, the 8-bit command code for the command is shifted in. This is
followed by the 24-bit device identification, stored in the memory, being shifted out on Serial Data Output, each bit being
shifted out during the falling edge of Serial Clock. The command sequence is shown in Figure26. The Read Identification
(RDID) command is terminated by driving CS# to high at any time during data output. When CS# is driven high, the device
is put in the Standby Mode. Once in the Standby Mode, the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and
execute commands.

High Performance Mode (HPM) (A3H)

The High Performance Mode (HPM) command must be executed prior to Dual or Quad I/O commands when
operating at high frequencies (see fR and fC in AC Electrical Characteristics). This command allows pre-charging of
internal charge pumps so the voltages required for accessing the flash memory array are readily available. The
command sequence: CS# goes lowÆSending A3H commandÆ Sending 3-dummy byteÆCS# goes high. See
Figure27. After the HPM command is executed, the device will maintain a slightly higher standby current (Icc8) than
standard SPI operation. The Release from Power-Down or HPM command (ABH) can be used to return to standard SPI
standby current (Icc1). In addition, Write Enable command (06H) and Power-Down command (B9H) will also release
the device from HPM mode back to standard SPI standby state.

Continuous Read Mode Reset (CRMR) (FFH)

The Dual/Quad I/O Fast Read operations, “Continuous Read Mode” bits (M7-0) are implemented to further reduce
command overhead. By setting the (M7-0) to AXH, the next Dual/Quad I/O Fast Read operations do not require the
BBH/EBH/E7H command code.
Because the GD25Q80 has no hardware reset pin, so if Continuous Read Mode bits are set to “AXH”, the GD25Q80
will not recognize any standard SPI commands. So Continuous Read Mode Reset command will release the Continuous
Read Mode from the “AXH” state and allow standard SPI command to be recognized. The command sequence is show in

Program command (02H) and Erase command (20H, 52H, D8H, D2H, C7H, 60H ) are not allowed during suspend.
Erase/Program Suspend is valid only during the sector/block erase or page program operation. A maximum of time of
“tsus” (See AC Characteristics) is required to suspend the program/erase operation.

While the Erase/Program suspend cycle is in progress, the Read Status Register command may still be accessed
