Serial flash memory is a type of non-volatile memory that is commonly used for storing data in embedded systems, microcontrollers, and other electronic devices. It is called “serial” because data is read from and written to the memory one bit at a time or in a serial fashion, as opposed to parallel flash memory where data is transferred in parallel over multiple data lines.

Description
The M25P40 is a 4 Mbit (512K x 8) Serial Flash Memory, with advanced write protection mecha-nisms, accessed by a high speed SPI-compatible bus. The memory can be programmed 1 to 256 bytes at a time, using the Page Program instruction.
