Working Principles

The RM25C64C-BSNC-T utilizes flash memory technology to store and retrieve data. It employs a serial peripheral interface (SPI) for communication with the host device. During read operations, the host device sends a command along with the desired memory address to the RM25C64C-BSNC-T. The device then retrieves the requested data and transmits it back to the host device. Write operations follow a similar process, where the host device sends the data to be written along with the target memory address.
