BIOS .bin_statusregval 2 B Shared

Small 2-byte status register file saved by an SPI programmer during a read of a Macronix MX25L6405 chip on 22 May 2019. It is not firmware and should never be written as a BIOS image. It records the chip protection and configuration bits so they can be restored after programming. The matching full 8 MB read with the same timestamp contains the actual BIOS. Most reflashing jobs do not need it unless lock bits must be set exactly.

The button opens the matching file on RM Schematics, or a source page if it is not catalogued there yet. The original attachment is from @biosfilebins. Enginerys does not host this file.

Back up your own chip before writing any dump, and match the full board number and revision. Flashing guide →

    Programmer read labelled with a Macronix MX25L6405 chip and a May 2019 timestamp, yet the file is only 1 MB, much smaller than the 8 MB capacity of that 64 Mbit part.
