I took off the cover and with reading glasses & flashlight squinted for
some time. As best I can make out I think (80% sure) my SPI flash chip is a
Winbond W25Q64JW. The print is so small my wife said it looked like braille
to her, and I thought she had better eyesight than me. My only doubt is it
may say W25Q32JW, but like I said my best guess is W25Q64JW. Either way it
is a 1.8v chip according to the Winbond Datasheets, both of which I have
saved for reference.
Thanks for the reply. I was trying to make it too simple :-)
