4. DEVICE OPERATION  
SPI Mode  
Standard SPI  
The GD25LQ128D 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 GD25LQ128D supports Dual SPI operation when using the Dual Output Fast Readand Dual I/O Fast Read”  
(3BH and BBH) commands. These commands allow data to be transferred to or from the device at twice 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 GD25LQ128D supports Quad SPI operation when using the Quad Output Fast Read,Quad I/O Fast Read,  
Quad I/O Word Fast Read, “Quad Page Program” (6BH, EBH, E7H, 32H) 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.  
QPI  
The GD25LQ128D supports Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) operations only when the device is switched from  
Standard/Dual/Quad SPI mode to QPI mode using the “Enable the QPI (38H)command. The QPI mode utilizes all four IO  
pins to input the command code. Standard/Dual/Quad SPI mode and QPI mode are exclusive. Only one mode can be active  
at any given times. Enable the QPI (38H)and Disable the QPI (FFH)” commands are used to switch between these two  
modes. Upon power-up and after software reset using “”Reset (99H)command, the default state of the device is  
Standard/Dual/Quad SPI mode. The QPI mode requires 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 doesnt stop the operation of write  
status register, programming, or erasing in progress.  
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 dont 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.

5. DATA PROTECTION  
The GD25LQ128D 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)  
-Erase Security Registers / Program Security Registers  
Software Protection Mode: The Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, and BP0) bits define the section of the memory  
array that can be read but not change.  
Hardware Protection Mode: WP# goes low to protect 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 and reset command (66H+99H).

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, and 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, and BP0) bits can be written provided that the Hardware Protected mode has not been set.  
The Chip Erase (CE) command is executed, if the Block Protect (BP2, BP1, and BP0) bits are 0 and CMP=0 or the Block  
Protect (BP2, BP1, and BP0) bits are 1 and CMP=1.  
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.

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. (It is best to set the QE bit to 0 to avoid short issue if the WP# or HOLD# pin is tied directly to the power  
supply or ground.)  
LB3, LB2, LB1 bits  
The LB3, LB2, LB1 bits are non-volatile One Time Program (OTP) bits in Status Register (S13-S11) that provide the  
write protect control and status to the Security Registers. The default state of LB3-LB1 are 0, the security registers are  
unlocked. The LB3-LB1 bits can be set to 1 individually using the Write Register instruction. The LB3-LB1 bits are One Time  
Programmable, once they are set to 1, the Security Registers will become read-only permanently.  
CMP bit  
The CMP bit is a non-volatile Read/Write bit in the Status Register (S14). It is used in conjunction with the BP4-BP0  
bits to provide more flexibility for the array protection. Please see the Status registers Memory Protection table for details.  
The default setting is CMP=0.  
SUS1, SUS2 bits  
The SUS1 and SUS2 bits are read only bit in the status register (S15 and S10) that are set to 1 after executing an  
Program/Erase Suspend (75H) command (The Erase Suspend will set the SUS1 to 1,and the Program Suspend will set the  
SUS2 to 1). The SUS1 and SUS2 bits are cleared to 0 by Program/Erase Resume (7AH) command, software reset  
(66H+99H) command as well as a power-down, power-up cycle.

7. 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, with  
most significant bit first on SI, and 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 completed. 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. All read instruction can  
be completed after any bit of the data-out sequence is being shifted out, and then CS# must be driven high to return to  
deselected status.  
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 be 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.

7.1. 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), Write Status  
Register (WRSR) and Erase/Program Security Registers command. The Write Enable (WREN) command sequence: CS#  
goes low sending the Write Enable command CS# goes high.

7.3. Write Enable for Volatile Status Register (50H)  
The non-volatile Status Register bits can also be written to as volatile bits. This gives more flexibility to change the  
system configuration and memory protection schemes quickly without waiting for the typical non-volatile bit write cycles or  
affecting the endurance of the Status Register non-volatile bits. The Write Enable for Volatile Status Register command  
must be issued prior to a Write Status Register command, and any other commands cannot be inserted between them.  
Otherwise, Write Enable for Volatile Status Register will be cleared. The Write Enable for Volatile Status Register command  
will not set the Write Enable Latch bit, it is only valid for the Write Status Register command to change the volatile Status  
Register bit values.

7.4. Read Status Register (RDSR) (05H or 35H or 15H)  
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/ 35H, the SO will output Status Register bits S7~S0  
/ S15-S8. The command code “15H” only supports the QPI mode, the I/O0 will output Status Register S1-S0. (For 120MHz  
Frequency, the 15H will better than 05H to check the WIP bit)

7.5. 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 CMP and QE bits will be cleared to 0 in  
SPI mode, while only CMP will be cleared to 0 in QPI mode. 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, and 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.

7.6. Read Data Bytes (READ) (03H)  
The Read Data Bytes (READ) command is followed by a 3-byte address (A23-A0), and each bit is latched-in on 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.

7.7. 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  
byte of data is shifted out.

The Fast Read command is also supported in QPI mode. In QPI mode, the number of dummy clocks is configured by  
the Set Read Parameters (C0H)command to accommodate a wide range application with different needs for either  
maximum Fast Read frequency or minimum data access latency. Depending on the Read Parameter Bits P[5:4] setting, the  
number of dummy clocks can be configured as either 4/6/8/8.

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 Modebyte 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 Figure11. 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.  
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 Modebits (M5-4) = (1, 0), then the next Dual  
I/O Fast Read command (after CS# is raised and then lowered) does not require the BBH command code. The command  
sequence is shown in followed Figure11. If the Continuous Read Modebits (M5-4) do not equal (1, 0), the next command  
requires the first BBH command code, thus returning to normal operation. A Continuous Read ModeReset command can  
be used to reset (M5-4) before issuing normal command.

Quad I/O Fast Read with 8/16/32/64-Byte Wrap Aroundin Standard SPI Mode  
The Quad I/O Fast Read command can be used to access a specific portion within a page by issuing Set Burst with  
Wrap(77H) commands prior to EBH. The Set Burst with Wrap(77H) command can either enable or disable the Wrap  
Aroundfeature for the following EBH commands. When Wrap Aroundis enabled, the data being accessed can be limited  
to either an 8/16/32/64-byte section of a 256-byte page. The output data starts at the initial address specified in the command,  
once it reaches the ending boundary of the 8/16/32/64-byte section, the output will wrap around the beginning boundary  
automatically until CS# is pulled high to terminate the command.  
The Burst with Wrap feature allows applications that use cache to quickly fetch a critical address and then fill the cache  
afterwards within a fixed length (8/16/32/64-byte) of data without issuing multiple read commands. The Set Burst with Wrap”  
command allows three Wrap BitsW6-W4 to be set. The W4 bit is used to enable or disable the Wrap Aroundoperation  
while W6-W5 is used to specify the length of the wrap around section within a page.  
Quad I/O Fast Read (EBH) in QPI Mode  
The Quad I/O Fast Read command is also supported in QPI mode. See Figure12b. In QPI mode, the number of dummy  
clocks is configured by the Set Read Parameters (C0H)command to accommodate a wide range application with different  
needs for either maximum Fast Read frequency or minimum data access latency. Depending on the Read Parameter Bits

P[5:4] setting, the number of dummy clocks can be configured as either 4/6/8/8. In QPI mode, the Continuous Read Mode”  
bits M7-M0 are also considered as dummy clocks. Continuous Read Modefeature is also available in QPI mode for Quad  
I/O Fast Read command. Wrap Aroundfeature is not available in QPI mode for Quad I/O Fast Read command. To perform  
a read operation with fixed data length wrap around in QPI mode, a dedicated Burst Read with Wrap(0CH) command  
must be used.

Word Fast Readcommand will use the W6-W4 setting to access the 8/16/32/64-byte section within any page. To exit the  
Wrap Aroundfunction and return to normal read operation, another Set Burst with Wrap command should be issued to set  
W4=1. In QPI mode, the Burst Read with Wrap (0CH)command should be used to perform the Read Operation with Wrap

7.14. 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 sending Page Program command 3-byte address on SI at least  
1 byte data on SI CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure15. 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, and  
BP0) is not executed.

7.15. Quad Page Program (32H)  
The Quad Page Program command is for programming the memory using four pins: IO0, IO1, IO2, and IO3. To use  
Quad Page Program the Quad enable in status register Bit9 must be set (QE=1). 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  
quad Page Program command is entered by driving CS# Low, followed by the command code (32H), three address bytes  
and at least one data byte on IO pins.  
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 Quad Page Program (PP) command is not executed.  
As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Quad Page Program cycle (whose duration is tPP) is initiated. While the  
Quad 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 Quad 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 Quad Page Program command applied to a page which is protected by the Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1,  
and BP0) is not executed.

7.16. Sector Erase (SE) (20H)  
The Sector Erase (SE) command is erased the all data of the chosen sector. A Write Enable (WREN) command must  
previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The Sector Erase (SE) command is entered by  
driving CS# low, followed by the command code, and 3-address byte on SI. Any address inside the sector is a valid address  
for the Sector Erase (SE) command. CS# must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The Sector Erase command sequence: CS# goes low sending Sector Erase command 3-byte address on SI   
CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure17. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of the last  
address byte has been latched in; otherwise the Sector Erase (SE) command is not executed. As soon as CS# is driven  
high, the self-timed Sector Erase cycle (whose duration is tSE) is initiated. While the Sector Erase 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 Sector Erase 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 Sector Erase (SE) command applied to a sector which is protected  
by the Block Protect (BP4, BP3, BP2, BP1, and BP0) bit (see Table1&1a) is not executed.

7.17. 32KB Block Erase (BE) (52H)  
The 32KB Block Erase (BE) command is erased the all data of the chosen block. A Write Enable (WREN) command  
must previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The 32KB Block Erase (BE) command is  
entered by driving CS# low, followed by the command code, and three address bytes on SI. Any address inside the block  
is a valid address for the 32KB Block Erase (BE) command. CS# must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The 32KB Block Erase command sequence: CS# goes low sending 32KB Block Erase command 3-byte address  
on SI CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure18. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of the  
last address byte has been latched in; otherwise the 32KB Block Erase (BE) command is not executed. As soon as CS# is  
driven high, the self-timed Block Erase cycle (whose duration is tSE) is initiated. While the Block Erase 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 Block Erase 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 32KB Block Erase (BE) command applied to a block which is

7.18. 64KB Block Erase (BE) (D8H)  
The 64KB Block Erase (BE) command is erased the all data of the chosen block. A Write Enable (WREN) command  
must previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit. The 64KB Block Erase (BE) command is  
entered by driving CS# low, followed by the command code, and three address bytes on SI. Any address inside the block  
is a valid address for the 64KB Block Erase (BE) command. CS# must be driven low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The 64KB Block Erase command sequence: CS# goes low sending 64KB Block Erase command 3-byte address  
on SI CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure19. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of the  
last address byte has been latched in; otherwise the 64KB Block Erase (BE) command is not executed. As soon as CS# is  
driven high, the self-timed Block Erase cycle (whose duration is tSE) is initiated. While the Block Erase 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 Block Erase cycle, and is 0 when it is completed. At some unspecified time before the cycle is

7.19. Chip Erase (CE) (60/C7H)  
The Chip Erase (CE) command is erased the all data of the chip. A Write Enable (WREN) command must previously  
have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit .The Chip Erase (CE) command is entered by driving CS# Low,  
followed by the command code on Serial Data Input (SI). CS# must be driven Low for the entire duration of the sequence.  
The Chip Erase command sequence: CS# goes low sending Chip Erase command CS# goes high. The  
command sequence is shown in Figure20. CS# must be driven high after the eighth bit of the command code has been  
latched in; otherwise the Chip Erase command is not executed. As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Chip Erase  
cycle (whose duration is tCE) is initiated. While the Chip Erase 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 Chip Erase 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.  
The Chip Erase (CE) command is executed if the Block Protect (BP2, BP1, and BP0) bits are 0 and CMP=0 or the Block  
Protect (BP2, BP1, and BP0) bits are 1 and CMP=1. The Chip Erase (CE) command is ignored if one or more sectors are

7.20. 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 (ABH) or Enable Reset (66H) and Reset (99H) commands. These commands  
can release the device from this mode. The Release from Deep Power-Down and Read Device ID (RDI) command releases  
the device from deep power down mode , 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 is in the Standby Mode after Power-  
Up. 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 sending Deep Power-Down command CS# goes  
high. The command sequence is shown in Figure21. 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.

7.21. Release from Deep Power-Down and Read Device ID (RDI) (ABH)  
The Release from Power-Down and Read Device ID command is a multi-purpose command. It can be used to release  
the device from the Power-Down state or obtain the devices electronic identification (ID) number.  
To release the device from the Power-Down state, the command is issued by driving the CS# pin low, shifting the  
instruction code “ABHand driving CS# high as shown in Figure22. 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 “ABHfollowed 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  
GD25LQ128D 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.

The Read Manufacturer/Device ID command is an alternative to the Release from Power-Down / Device ID command  
that provides both the JEDEC assigned Manufacturer ID and the specific Device ID.  
The command is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and shifting the command code “90H” followed by a 24-bit address  
(A23-A0) of 000000H. After which, the Manufacturer ID and the Device ID are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK with  
most significant bit (MSB) first as shown in Figure24. If the 24-bit address is initially set to 000001H, the Device ID will be  
read first.

The Read Manufacturer/Device ID Dual I/O command is an alternative to the Release from Power-Down / Device ID  
command that provides both the JEDEC assigned Manufacturer ID and the specific Device ID by dual I/O.  
The command is initiated by driving the CS# pin low and shifting the command code “92H” followed by a 24-bit address  
(A23-A0) of 000000H. After which, the Manufacturer ID and the Device ID are shifted out on the falling edge of SCLK with  
most significant bit (MSB) first as shown in Figure25. If the 24-bit address is initially set to 000001H, the Device ID will be  
read first.

7.25. 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. The 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# 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. Each bit is shifted out on the falling edge of Serial Clock.  
The command sequence is shown in Figure27. The Read Identification (RDID) command is terminated by driving CS# high  
at any time during data output. When CS# is driven high, the device is in the Standby Mode. Once in the Standby Mode,  
the device waits to be selected, so that it can receive, decode and execute commands.

7.26. Program/Erase Suspend (PES) (75H)  
The Program/Erase Suspend command “75H”, allows the system to interrupt a page program or sector/block erase  
operation and then read data from any other sector or block. The Write Status Register command (01H/31H/11H) and  
Erase/Program Security Registers command (44H, 42H) and Erase commands (20H, 52H, D8H, C7H, 60H) and Page  
Program command (02H, 32H) are not allowed during Program suspend. The Write Status Register command  
(01H/31H/11H) and Erase Security Registers command (44H) and Erase commands (20H, 52H, D8H, C7H, 60H) are not  
allowed during Erase suspend. Program/Erase Suspend is valid only during the page program or sector/block erase  
operation. A maximum of time of “tsus” (See AC Characteristics) is required to suspend the program/erase operation  
The Program/Erase Suspend command will be accepted by the device only if the SUS2/SUS1 bit in the Status  
Register equal to 0 and WIP bit equal to 1 while a Page Program or a Sector or Block Erase operation is on-going. If the  
SUS2/SUS1 bit equal to 1 or WIP bit equal to 0, the Suspend command will be ignored by the device. The WIP bit will be  
cleared from 1 to 0 within “tsus” and the SUS2/SUS1 bit will be set from 0 to 1 immediately after Program/Erase Suspend.  
A power-off during the suspend period will reset the device and release the suspend state. The command sequence is show  
in Figure28.

7.29. Erase Security Registers (44H)  
The GD25LQ128D provides three 1024-byte Security Registers which can be erased and programmed individually.  
These registers may be used by the system manufacturers to store security and other important information separately from  
the main memory array.  
The Erase Security Registers command is similar to Sector/Block Erase command. A Write Enable (WREN)  
command must previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit.  
The Erase Security Registers command sequence: CS# goes low sending Erase Security Registers command   
3-byte address on SI CS# goes high. The command sequence is shown in Figure30. CS# must be driven high after the  
eighth bit of the last address byte has been latched in; otherwise the Erase Security Registers command is not executed.  
As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Erase Security Registers cycle (whose duration is tSE) is initiated. While the  
Erase Security Registers 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 Erase Security Registers 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. The Security  
Registers Lock Bit (LB3-1) in the Status Register can be used to OTP protect the security registers. Once the LB bit is set  
to 1, the Security Registers will be permanently locked; the Erase Security Registers command will be ignored.

7.30. Program Security Registers (42H)  
The Program Security Registers command is similar to the Page Program command. Each security register contains  
four pages of contents. It allows from 1 to 1024 bytes Security Registers data to be programmed. A Write Enable (WREN)  
command must previously have been executed to set the Write Enable Latch (WEL) bit before sending the Program Security  
Registers command. The Program Security Registers command is entered by driving CS# Low, followed by the command  
code (42H), three address bytes and at least one data byte on SI. As soon as CS# is driven high, the self-timed Program  
Security Registers cycle (whose duration is tPP) is initiated. While the Program Security Registers 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 Program Security Registers 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.  
If the Security Registers Lock Bit (LB3-1) is set to 1, the Security Registers will be permanently locked. Program  
Security Registers command will be ignored.

7.31. Read Security Registers (48H)  
The Read Security Registers command is similar to Fast Read command. The command 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  
byte of data is shifted out. Once the A9-A0 address reaches the last byte of the register (Byte 3FFH), it will reset to 000H,  
the command is completed by driving CS# high.

7.34. Enable QPI (38H)  
The device support both Standard/Dual/Quad SPI and QPI mode. The Enable QPI (38H)command can switch the  
device from SPI mode to QPI mode. See the command Table 2a for all support QPI commands. In order to switch the device  
to QPI mode, the Quad Enable (QE) bit in Status Register-1 must be set to 1 first, and Enable QPI (38H)command must  
be issued. If the QE bit is 0, the “Enable QPI (38H)command will be ignored and the device will remain in SPI mode. When  
the device is switched from SPI mode to QPI mode, the existing Write Enable Latch and Program/Erase Suspend status,  
and the Wrap Length setting will remain unchanged.

7.35. Disable QPI (FFH)  
To exit the QPI mode and return to Standard/Dual/Quad SPI mode, the Disable QPI (FFH)command must be  
issued. When the device is switched from QPI mode to SPI mode, the existing Write Enable Latch and Program/Erase  
Suspend status, and the Wrap Length setting will remain unchanged.

7.36. Enable Reset (66H) and Reset (99H)  
If the Reset command is accepted, any on-going internal operation will be terminated and the device will return to its  
default power-on state and lose all the current volatile settings, such as Volatile Status Register bits, Write Enable Latch  
status (WEL), Program/Erase Suspend status, Read Parameter setting (P7-P0), Continuous Read Mode bit setting (M7-  
M0) and Wrap Bit Setting (W6-W4).  
The “Enable Reset (66H)and the Reset (99H)commands can be issued in either SPI or QPI mode. The Reset  
(99H)command sequence as follow: CS# goes low Sending Enable Reset command CS# goes high CS# goes  
low Sending Reset command CS# goes high. Once the Reset command is accepted by the device, the device will  
take approximately tRST / tRST_E to reset. During this period, no command will be accepted. Data corruption may happen if  
there is an on-going or suspended internal Erase or Program operation when Reset command sequence is accepted by the  
device. It is recommended to check the BUSY bit and the SUS bit in Status Register before issuing the Reset command  
sequence.

7.37. Read Serial Flash Discoverable Parameter (5AH)  
The Serial Flash Discoverable Parameter (SFDP) standard provides a consistent method of describing the functional  
and feature capabilities of serial flash devices in a standard set of internal parameter tables. These parameter tables can  
be interrogated by host system software to enable adjustments needed to accommodate divergent features from multiple  
vendors. The concept is similar to the one found in the Introduction of JEDEC Standard, JESD68 on CFI. SFDP is a standard  
of JEDEC Standard No.216.
