Product details
Overview
AT17C010-10JC from Atmel is a 1-Mbit (1,048,576 × 1-bit) serial EEPROM FPGA configuration memory with 5V ±5% operation, 8-lead LAP package (6 mm × 6 mm × 1 mm), and in-system programmability via 2-wire bus. It provides nonvolatile storage for Xilinx XC4000™, Spartan®, Virtex™, Altera FLEX®, APEX™, Lucent ORCA®, and Atmel AT40K/AT94K FPGA bitstreams, featuring programmable reset polarity, system-friendly READY pin, and cascading CEO support.
For engineers reviewing the AT17C010-10JC datasheet, AT17C010-10JC pinout, AT17C010-10JC application, or AT17C010-10JC equivalent, key selection criteria include 1-Mbit density, 5V commercial-grade operation (0°C to +70°C), 8-lead LAP footprint compatibility with SOIC/VOIC, cascading capability via CEO, and direct interface with FPGA master serial mode without external controller.
Technical Context
The AT17C010-10JC operates in FPGA master serial configuration mode: CLK from FPGA drives internal address/bit counter; DATA output feeds FPGA DIN; CE and RESET/OE control tri-state output and counter reset; SER_EN = VCC enables normal loading. Its architecture integrates EEPROM cell matrix, row/column decoders, oscillator-based timing, and programming logic supporting 2-wire ISP when SER_EN is low.
It supports daisy-chained configurations via CEO (active-low chip enable output), which asserts upon end-of-data to enable the next device's CE input. Programmable reset polarity (RESET active Low / OE active High) is stored in four EEPROM bytes and configurable using industry-standard programmers or Atmel's ATDH2200E/ATDH2225 tools.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1,048,576 × 1-bit (1-Mbit) nonvolatile EEPROM storage for full FPGA configuration bitstream |
| Supply Voltage | 5V ±5% - supports commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) with ICCA ≤10 mA active current |
| Max Clock Frequency | 15 MHz - enables fast configuration load times compatible with Xilinx/Altera master serial protocols |
| Standby Current | ≤0.5 mA - achieved by holding CE high, critical for low-power system initialization sequences |
| Package | 8-lead LAP (6 mm × 6 mm × 1 mm) - pin-compatible with 8-lead SOIC/VOIC, surface-mount optimized |
| Interface Protocol | Serial master-mode interface - no external controller required; directly driven by FPGA CCLK and control signals |
| Reset Polarity | Programmable (default RESET active Low / OE active High) - configured via EEPROM bytes for FPGA INIT/DONE timing alignment |
Pinout & Package
AT17C010-10JC uses an 8-lead Leadless Array Package (LAP), 6 mm × 6 mm × 1 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, pin-compatible with standard 8-lead SOIC and VOIC footprints. The package is RoHS-compliant and optimized for automated SMT assembly.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | DATA | Three-state bidirectional I/O - open-collector during programming; drives FPGA DIN during configuration |
| 2 | CLK | Input clock - synchronizes internal address/bit counter increment; sourced from FPGA CCLK |
| 3 | RESET/OE | Combined input - active-Low RESET resets address counter; active-High OE enables DATA output driver |
| 4 | CE | Chip Enable (active Low) - enables counter and DATA output; high state forces standby mode (ICCS ≤0.5 mA) |
| 5 | VCC | +5V power supply - nominal 5V ±5%; requires 0.2 µF decoupling capacitor to GND |
| 6 | SER_EN | Serial Enable - must be tied to VCC for FPGA loading; pulled low to enter 2-wire ISP programming mode |
| 7 | CEO (A2) | Chip Enable Output (active Low) - signals end-of-data; cascades to CE of next AT17 device in daisy chain |
| 8 | GND | Ground reference - common return for VCC and all signal paths; decoupling capacitor required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| In-system programmability | Enabled via 2-wire serial bus when SER_EN = Low - eliminates socketed programming; supports field updates |
| Cascadable CEO output | Active-Low CEO pin automatically enables next configurator in chain - supports multi-FPGA or high-density bitstreams |
| System-friendly READY pin | Open-collector indicator driven Low during power-on reset, released after stable VCC - synchronizes FPGA startup |
| Programmable reset polarity | Configurable RESET/OE logic via 4 EEPROM bytes - ensures timing compatibility with diverse FPGA INIT/DONE behaviors |
| Low-power standby mode | ICCS ≤0.5 mA at 5V when CE = High - reduces system power during idle or partial reconfiguration states |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar FPGA configuration memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT17LV010-10JC | 3.3V ±10% operation (vs. 5V); lower ICCA (5 mA) and ICCS (100 µA); reduced FMAX (10 MHz in industrial range) | Targets 3.3V FPGA systems (e.g., newer Xilinx Virtex-II); not drop-in compatible due to voltage mismatch | Select AT17LV010-10JC only when main system rail is 3.3V and power budget is constrained; verify FPGA VCCIO compatibility. |
| XC17V010PC44C | Xilinx proprietary one-time-programmable (OTP) PROM; no in-system programming; 44-pin PLCC package; no READY or CEO pins | Used in legacy Xilinx-only designs where reprogramming is unnecessary; lacks cascading and system coordination features | Choose XC17V010PC44C only for cost-sensitive, fixed-function deployments with no field update requirement; incompatible pinout and interface. |
Compared with AT17LV010-10JC, the AT17C010-10JC delivers higher noise immunity and simpler power design in 5V systems, while XC17V010PC44C sacrifices flexibility for lower unit cost in static configurations - making AT17C010-10JC optimal for upgradable, multi-FPGA industrial control.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for AT17C010-10JC?
The AT17C010-10JC operates at 5V ±5% for commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). It is not rated for 3.3V operation - use AT17LV010-10JC instead for 3.3V systems. Absolute maximum VCC is +7.0V; exceeding 5.25V may cause functional instability or accelerated wear.
Does AT17C010-10JC support daisy-chaining with other configuration memories?
Yes, AT17C010-10JC supports daisy-chaining via its CEO (Chip Enable Output) pin, which goes active-Low when the internal address counter reaches maximum value. This signal connects directly to the CE input of the next AT17-series device, enabling seamless multi-device configuration without external logic.
How is the reset polarity programmed on AT17C010-10JC?
The reset polarity of AT17C010-10JC is programmed by writing to four dedicated EEPROM bytes using an industry-standard programmer or Atmel's ATDH2200E kit. Default setting is RESET active Low / OE active High, matching most Xilinx and Altera FPGA INIT/DONE timing requirements.
What package type does AT17C010-10JC use, and is it compatible with SOIC footprints?
AT17C010-10JC uses an 8-lead Leadless Array Package (LAP), 6 mm × 6 mm × 1 mm, with 1.27 mm pitch. It is explicitly pin-compatible with standard 8-lead SOIC and VOIC packages per Atmel documentation, enabling drop-in replacement in existing SOIC layouts with minor solder paste adjustment.
Can AT17C010-10JC be programmed in-circuit after PCB assembly?
Yes, AT17C010-10JC supports in-system programming (ISP) via its 2-wire serial interface. Pulling SER_EN low enables ISP mode; CLK and DATA pins then accept programming commands without removing the device from the board - essential for field firmware updates and configuration validation.
