Product details
Overview
AT49BV001ANT-55TU from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 1 Mbit (128K × 8) single-supply, in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC designed for embedded boot code storage and parameter retention. It operates from 2.7V to 3.6V, delivers 55 ns read access time, supports byte-by-byte programming at 30 µs/byte, and features hardware data protection with 10,000 write/erase cycles - deployed in industrial control firmware updates and secure bootloader applications.
For engineers reviewing the AT49BV001ANT-55TU datasheet, AT49BV001ANT-55TU pinout, AT49BV001ANT-55TU application, or AT49BV001ANT-55TU equivalent, key selection criteria include its 32-pin TSOP package, boot block lockout capability (16 KB at 1C000H–1FFFFH), sector-erasable architecture (two 8 KB parameter blocks + two main memory blocks), and compatibility with standard microprocessor bus timing (CE/OE/WE control).
Technical Context
The AT49BV001ANT-55TU implements a CMOS-based NOR Flash architecture with internal program control logic and autonomous erase timing. Its command-set-driven operation uses six-cycle sequences for chip/sector erase and four-cycle sequences for byte programming, all executed without external high-voltage inputs.
It integrates DATA polling (I/O7 complement detection) and toggle-bit (I/O6 toggling) methods for cycle completion monitoring, and includes VCC sense, noise filtering, and CE/OE/WE inhibit logic for hardware data protection. The RESET pin is not functional on this variant (AT49BV001AN(T)), distinguishing it from non-N versions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8 bits) - sufficient for full bootloader + configuration parameters in space-constrained embedded systems. |
| Read Access Time | 55 ns - enables direct execution from flash (XIP) in real-time microcontroller applications without wait states. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3 V logic domains and battery-backed industrial systems. |
| Byte Programming Time | 30 µs typical - allows rapid field updates of small firmware patches or calibration data. |
| Erase Cycle Time | 3 seconds max - supports fast reconfiguration during manufacturing test or field service. |
| Endurance | 10,000 write/erase cycles - ensures multi-year reliability in devices requiring periodic firmware upgrades. |
| Standby Current | 50 µA CMOS - minimizes power draw in always-on edge nodes and low-power IoT gateways. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade deployment in motor drives, PLCs, and telecom infrastructure. |
Pinout & Package
AT49BV001ANT-55TU is housed in a 32-lead Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP, Type 1, 8 × 20 mm), RoHS-compliant and halide-free. Pin 9 is no-connect (NC) per datasheet specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 128K-word addressing; A11 is don't-care in command cycles. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low enable controlling device selection; must be low with OE low for valid read access. |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; used with CE to prevent bus contention during shared-memory access. |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low control for programming/erase command latching; rising edge triggers data/address capture. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bi-directional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel interface for read data output and program data input; supports DATA polling on I/O7 and toggle-bit on I/O6. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7–3.6 V supply; internal regulation ensures stable core voltage across operating range. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return path; decoupling required within 10 mm of VCC pin per layout guidelines. |
| RESET | Reset Input | Not functional on AT49BV001ANT-55TU - differs from non-N variants where 12 V override enables boot block reprogramming. |
| NC (Pin 9) | No Connect | Unbonded pin; must remain unconnected on PCB - floating or tied to GND/VCC may cause latch-up or ESD risk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Sector Architecture | One 16 KB boot block (1C000H–1FFFFH), two 8 KB parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (32 KB + 64 KB) - enables selective firmware update without erasing critical boot code. |
| Boot Block Lockout | Software-enabled permanent write protection for boot sector; once activated, prevents accidental overwrite of secure startup code under ≤5.5 V conditions. |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense (<1.8 V inhibits programming), noise filtering (rejects <15 ns pulses), and CE/OE/WE inhibit logic - eliminates spurious writes during power transients or EMI events. |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | Dual asynchronous status reporting: I/O7 complement indicates programming completion; I/O6 toggling provides real-time erase/program progress feedback without CPU polling overhead. |
| Green Packaging | Pb/halide-free TSOP package (32T) - meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 (MSL3). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SST39VF010-55-4C-NHE | 512 Kbit density (64K × 8), 55 ns access, same 3.3 V supply; lacks boot block lockout and parameter block segmentation. | Lower capacity limits use to simpler bootloaders; no hardware-protected sector - requires software-managed write protection. | Select when cost-sensitive designs require basic Flash functionality without sector-level security or 1 Mbit capacity. |
| MX29LV160CBTI-70G | 16 Mbit (2M × 8), 70 ns access, 2.7–3.6 V; includes CFI-compliant command set and 16-word boot sectors with lock bits. | Higher density supports complex firmware; CFI interface simplifies driver portability but increases BOM cost and footprint. | Choose for scalable platforms needing future-proofing beyond 1 Mbit, especially where standardized flash drivers are mandated. |
Compared with SST39VF010-55-4C-NHE and MX29LV160CBTI-70G, the AT49BV001ANT-55TU uniquely balances 1 Mbit capacity, 55 ns speed, dedicated boot block lockout, and industrial temperature support in a compact TSOP package - making it optimal for cost-constrained, safety-aware embedded systems requiring guaranteed boot integrity.

FAQ
What is the function of the RESET pin on the AT49BV001ANT-55TU?
The RESET pin is not functional on the AT49BV001ANT-55TU. Per the datasheet, this feature is unavailable on AT49BV001AN(T) variants. Unlike non-N versions, AT49BV001ANT-55TU cannot use RESET for boot block override or reset-induced high-impedance state entry. System-level reset must be managed externally, and boot block reprogramming relies solely on command sequences under ≤5.5 V.
How does the boot block lockout work on the AT49BV001ANT-55TU?
The AT49BV001ANT-55TU implements boot block lockout via a six-cycle command sequence (555H/AAH → AAH/55H → 555H/80H → 555H/AAH → AAH/55H → 555H/40H). Once enabled, the 16 KB boot sector (1C000H–1FFFFH) becomes permanently write-protected under ≤5.5 V. The lockout status is verified by reading bit I/O0 at address 1C002H - low = unlocked, high = locked.
What package type and pin count does the AT49BV001ANT-55TU use?
The AT49BV001ANT-55TU uses a 32-lead Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP, Type 1, 8 × 20 mm), designated as package code "32T". Pin 9 is explicitly defined as no-connect (NC) and must remain unconnected on the PCB. This green (Pb/halide-free) package complies with RoHS and JEDEC MO-142 BD specifications.
Can the AT49BV001ANT-55TU be programmed using standard microprocessor bus timing?
Yes, the AT49BV001ANT-55TU is fully compatible with standard microprocessor bus timing. It uses CE, OE, and WE controls identical to EPROM interfaces - enabling direct replacement in existing 8-bit or 16-bit bus systems. Command sequences follow standard write strobe protocols, with address latched on the falling edge of CE or WE and data on the rising edge, requiring no external high-voltage generators or custom timing controllers.
What are the erase options supported by the AT49BV001ANT-55TU?
The AT49BV001ANT-55TU supports both chip-erase and sector-erase operations. Chip erase clears Parameter Block 1, Parameter Block 2, Main Memory Block 1, and Main Memory Block 2 - but excludes the boot block if lockout is enabled. Sector erase targets individual 8 KB parameter blocks or 32 KB/64 KB main memory blocks using a six-cycle command with sector address (SA) and 30H data, completing in ≤3 seconds with internal timing.
