W25Q64FV
7.2.33
Read Unique ID Number (4Bh)
The Read Unique ID Number instruction accesses a factory-set read-only 64-bit number that is unique to
each W25Q64FV device. The ID number can be used in conjunction with user software methods to help
prevent copying or cloning of a system. The Read Unique ID instruction is initiated by driving the /CS pin
low and shifting the instruction code “4Bh” followed by a four bytes of dummy clocks. After which, the 64-
bit ID is shifted out on the falling edge of CLK as shown in Figure 32.
