Winbond Electronics Corporation, a leading global supplier of semiconductor solutions, has unveiled the W25N01KW, a 1 GB 1.8 V QspiNAND flash. This new NAND solution is designed to meet the increasing demands of wearable and battery-operated IoT devices with low standby power, small-form-factor package, and continuous read for fast boot and instant-on support.

The W25N01KW flash memory stands out for its high-speed read capabilities, achieving speeds up to 52 MB/sec in both Continuous Read and Sequential Read modes. The fast boot and instant-on support enhance energy efficiency and extend the devices' operational lifespan. It also offers an advanced deep power-down mode that reduces power consumption to as low as 1µA. The W25N01KW comes in a small form factor and is available in compact WSON8 (8 mm x 6 mm) and WSON8 (6 mm x 5 mm) packages. These exceptional features ensure ultra-fast code/data access, longer battery life, and compact design, contributing to an optimized user experience across various applications."The W25N01KW reflects our commitment to excellence, integrating innovative design elements to transform the landscape of wearable and low-power IoT devices, enabling manufacturers to deliver cutting-edge solutions to consumers," said Winbond. It is the perfect choice for energy-efficient devices that require high performance in a compact design. In addition to wearable and low-power IoT applications, it's also well-suited for use in smart cameras such as IP cameras, surveillance systems, battery-powered Wi-Fi cameras, and smart doorbells.
