Product details
Overview
AT49BV001ANT-55VI from Atmel is a 1 Mbit (128K × 8) single-supply 2.7–3.6 V in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC with 55 ns read access time, 30 µs/byte programming, and sector-erasable architecture including one 16K-byte boot block, two 8K-byte parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (32K + 64K bytes). It supports industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and is used in embedded firmware storage for microcontroller-based systems requiring field-upgradable code.
For engineers reviewing the AT49BV001ANT-55VI datasheet, AT49BV001ANT-55VI pinout, AT49BV001ANT-55VI application, or AT49BV001ANT-55VI equivalent, key selection considerations include boot-block lockout capability, 55 ns read timing compliance, VSOP-32 (8 × 14 mm) package compatibility, DATA polling/Toggle Bit erase-program status detection, and hardware write protection under 1.8 V VCC sense.
Technical Context
The AT49BV001ANT-55VI implements a standard parallel Flash interface with CE/OE/WE control logic, supporting EPROM-like read operation and command-based byte/sector/chip erase and programming. Its internal program controller handles timing generation, eliminating need for external clocks during erase (max 5 s) or byte program (typ. 30 µs) cycles.
It features dual-level hardware data protection: VCC sense disables programming below 1.8 V, and noise filtering rejects sub-15 ns pulses on WE/CE. The RESET pin enables system reset and - uniquely in the T variant - 12 V override of boot block lockout, a capability absent in AN and A variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8), organized as 128K words × 8 bits |
| Read Access Time | 55 ns - meets fast boot code fetch timing in 20 MHz+ microcontroller systems |
| Byte Programming Time | 30 µs typical - enables rapid field updates without long blocking delays |
| Erase Cycle Time | 3 seconds max for full chip or sector - supports deterministic firmware recovery sequences |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - operates directly from single Li-ion or regulated 3.3 V rails |
| Active Current | 15 mA at 5 MHz - compatible with low-power embedded power budgets |
| Standby Current | 50 µA CMOS - enables ultra-low quiescent power in sleep-mode systems |
| Endurance | 10,000 program/erase cycles - validated for frequent firmware revision in industrial controllers |
Pinout & Package
AT49BV001ANT-55VI is supplied in a 32-lead Very Thin Small Outline Package (VSOP), 8 mm × 14 mm body, JEDEC MO-142 BA compliant, with gull-wing leads and pin 1 identifier notch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 128K-word addressing; A11–A16 don't care in some commands |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; must be low with OE low and WE high for valid read output |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; controls I/O0–I/O7 tri-state behavior independent of CE |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; latches address/data during command sequences and byte programming |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit data path for read, program, and identification modes; supports DATA polling on I/O7 and Toggle Bit on I/O6 |
| RESET | Reset Input | Active-low system reset; 12 V input enables boot block reprogramming override (T variant only) |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7–3.6 V core supply; internal regulation ensures stable operation across voltage range |
| GND | Ground | Reference return for all signals and power; decoupling required per high-speed Flash layout guidelines |
| NC | No Connect | Pin 9 in TSOP/VSOP packages - must remain unconnected; not bonded internally |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Programming Lockout | 16K-byte sector (1C000H–1FFFFH) permanently protected after command sequence; prevents accidental overwrite of secure boot code |
| Data Polling & Toggle Bit | I/O7 complement indicates programming completion; I/O6 toggling signals active erase/program - eliminates need for fixed delay timers in host firmware |
| Sector-Erasable Architecture | Independent erasure of boot block, two 8K parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (32K/64K) - enables modular firmware updates without full chip erase |
| Hardware Write Protection | VCC sense (<1.8 V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulse rejection), and control-line gating (OE low/CE high/WE high blocks writes) |
| 12 V RESET Override | Applying 12.0 V ± 0.5 V to RESET pin during erase/program re-enables boot block modification - critical for recovery in locked systems (T variant only) |
Applications

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 | 512K × 16 organization; 55 ns access; 3.0–3.6 V supply; no boot block lockout or 12 V RESET override | Lacks dedicated boot sector protection and recovery mechanism; requires external logic for secure boot enforcement | Choose when cost-sensitive designs accept reduced security and simpler command set |
| MX29LV001CTTI-55G | 1 Mbit (128K × 8); 55 ns; 3.0–3.6 V; includes CFI query support but no 12 V RESET override | CFI-compliant for auto-detection in BIOS/bootloader; boot block lockout implemented differently (no 12 V recovery path) | Prefer for PC-compatible or UEFI-based platforms requiring standardized Flash interrogation |
Compared with SST39VF010-55-4C-NHE and MX29LV001CTTI-55G, the AT49BV001ANT-55VI uniquely combines boot block lockout with 12 V RESET override - a critical differentiator for safety-critical or field-deployed systems requiring guaranteed recovery paths.

FAQ
What is the boot block address range for AT49BV001ANT-55VI?
The AT49BV001ANT-55VI uses the "T" variant memory map, where the 16K-byte boot block occupies address range 1C000H to 1FFFFH. This differs from the base AT49BV001A(N) variant (00000H–03FFFH) and is confirmed in the Command Definitions table and Sector Address (SA) notes. The boot block lockout feature, once enabled, protects this region from standard 2.7–3.6 V programming.
Does AT49BV001ANT-55VI support 12 V RESET override for boot block reprogramming?
Yes, AT49BV001ANT-55VI supports 12 V RESET override: applying 12.0 V ± 0.5 V to the RESET pin during chip erase, sector erase, or byte programming operations temporarily disables boot block lockout, allowing reprogramming. This feature is explicitly documented as unavailable on AT49BV001AN(T) variants and is a defining characteristic of the "T" suffix in the AT49BV001A(N)(T) family.
What package type is used by AT49BV001ANT-55VI?
AT49BV001ANT-55VI uses the 32V package: a 32-lead Very Thin Small Outline Package (VSOP), 8 mm × 14 mm body size, JEDEC MO-142 Variation BA compliant. This is distinct from the 32J (PLCC) and 32T (TSOP) variants listed in the Ordering Information table, and its mechanical dimensions are fully specified in Drawing No. 32V.
How does DATA polling work on AT49BV001ANT-55VI during byte programming?
During byte programming, AT49BV001ANT-55VI asserts the complement of the loaded data on I/O7. Once programming completes, true data appears on all outputs. Host firmware can poll I/O7 after initiating a write - when the bit stops toggling and matches expected value, the cycle is complete. This eliminates fixed timing delays and improves update throughput in real-time systems.
What is the maximum erase time for AT49BV001ANT-55VI, and is it guaranteed?
The maximum erase cycle time for AT49BV001ANT-55VI is 5 seconds, as specified in the Program Cycle Characteristics table under tEC (Erase Cycle Time). The datasheet states "3 seconds" as typical and "5 seconds" as maximum - both values are characterized (not 100% tested) but represent guaranteed worst-case bounds for design timing margins in production systems using AT49BV001ANT-55VI.
