Product details
Overview
AT49BV002A-70VI from Atmel is a 2 Mbit (256K × 8) single-supply Flash memory IC operating at 2.7–3.6 V, featuring 70 ns read access time, 4-second chip erase, 30 µs/byte programming, and hardware data protection. It serves as nonvolatile program/data storage in embedded microcontroller systems requiring in-system reprogrammability without high-voltage programming.
For engineers reviewing the AT49BV002A-70VI datasheet, AT49BV002A-70VI pinout, AT49BV002A-70VI application, or AT49BV002A-70VI equivalent, key selection criteria include boot-block lockout capability, sector-based erase architecture (1×16K boot + 2×8K parameter + 4×main blocks), CMOS standby current (50 µA), and compatibility with standard EPROM-like bus interface (CE/OE/WE control).
Technical Context
The AT49BV002A-70VI implements a command-register-based architecture for byte programming, sector erase, and chip erase-requiring no external high-voltage supply. Its internal program timer and DATA polling (I/O7 complement) or toggle-bit (I/O6) mechanisms enable precise cycle completion detection.
It features a dedicated 16K-byte boot block with programmable lockout (enabled via six-command sequence), where lockout enforcement differs by variant: AT49BV002A allows override with 12 V on RESET, while AT49BV002AN(T) lacks RESET functionality entirely. The device supports hardware write inhibition via VCC sense (<1.8 V), OE/CE/WE logic states, and noise filtering on WE/CE inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Capacity | 2 Mbit (256K × 8 bits), organized for direct microcontroller address/data bus interfacing |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns - enables direct replacement of 70 ns EPROMs without timing redesign |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7–3.6 V - supports battery-powered and low-voltage industrial systems without level-shifting |
| Erase Time | 4 seconds (chip erase) - deterministic internal timing eliminates need for external clocks or polling overhead |
| Programming Speed | 30 µs/byte typical - enables rapid field updates of configuration or firmware segments |

Pinout & Package
AT49BV002A-70VI is packaged in a 32-lead Very Small Outline Package (VSOP), 8 mm × 14 mm footprint, compliant with JEDEC MO-142 BA, with 0.5 mm lead pitch and 1.0 mm nominal body height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| Boot Block Programming Lockout | 16K-byte protected region prevents accidental overwrite of bootloader code during field firmware updates |
| Sector-Erase Architecture | Independent erasure of boot, parameter, and main memory blocks enables granular updates without full-chip erase |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense, noise filtering, and control-line inhibit prevent spurious writes during power transients or EMI events |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | Dual-cycle-completion detection methods simplify firmware integration and improve system responsiveness |
Applications

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: In-system reprogrammable flash memory interfaced directly to 8-bit MCU via standard bus protocol. Use Value: 2.7–3.6 V operation supports wide battery voltage range (9–16 V with regulator); 50 µA standby current minimizes parasitic drain. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT49BV002AN-70VI | No RESET pin functionality; boot block lockout cannot be overridden with 12 V signal | Preferred where absolute boot code permanence is required and no field reprogramming of boot sector is needed | Select when boot block must remain permanently locked regardless of voltage conditions |
| SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE | Same 2 Mbit density and 70 ns speed, but uses different command set and lacks boot block lockout override | Requires firmware adaptation for command sequences; no 12 V RESET override for boot sector | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where Atmel-specific lockout override is not required |
Compared with AT49BV002AN-70VI, the AT49BV002A-70VI offers field-recoverable boot block reprogramming via 12 V RESET, while SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE provides pin-compatible migration path but requires full command set validation and lacks hardware lockout override.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the AT49BV002A-70VI?
The AT49BV002A-70VI operates over a single supply voltage range of 2.7 V to 3.6 V. This allows direct integration into battery-powered or low-voltage industrial systems without external voltage translation. Operation below 2.7 V disables programming functions via internal VCC sense circuitry, and voltages above 3.6 V exceed absolute maximum ratings and risk permanent damage. The AT49BV002A-70VI maintains full read, erase, and program functionality across this entire range.
How does the boot block lockout feature work on the AT49BV002A-70VI?
The AT49BV002A-70VI includes a 16K-byte boot block (address 00000H–03FFFH) with programmable lockout. Once enabled via a six-command sequence, writes to this region are blocked at ≤5.5 V. Crucially, the AT49BV002A-70VI supports override by applying 12 V ±0.5 V to the RESET pin during programming-enabling recovery if boot code corruption occurs. This override capability is absent in AT49BV002AN variants.
What package type is used for the AT49BV002A-70VI?
The AT49BV002A-70VI uses a 32-lead Very Small Outline Package (VSOP) with dimensions 8 mm × 14 mm and 0.5 mm lead pitch. It complies with JEDEC MO-142 Variation BA and features gull-wing leads suitable for surface-mount reflow assembly. This package offers lower profile and smaller footprint than PLCC or PDIP alternatives while maintaining compatibility with standard 32-pin Flash memory layouts.
Can the AT49BV002A-70VI be used as a direct replacement for standard EPROMs?
Yes-the AT49BV002A-70VI uses identical CE/OE/WE control signaling and 8-bit parallel data interface as standard 27C256 EPROMs, enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs. Its 70 ns access time matches common EPROM speeds, and it supports the same address/data bus timing. However, unlike EPROMs, it requires no UV erasure and supports in-circuit reprogramming via standard microcontroller GPIOs without high-voltage programmers.
What are the supported erase modes for the AT49BV002A-70VI?
The AT49BV002A-70VI supports three erase modes: chip erase (entire 256K-word array, 4 s typical), sector erase (individual 16K/8K/32K/64K blocks), and boot block erase (only if lockout is disabled). Sector erase uses a six-bus-cycle command with sector address latched on the sixth WE falling edge. All erase operations are internally timed-no external clocks or polling delays are required beyond the specified tEC or sector-erase duration.
