Product details
Overview
AT49BV002AN-70JU from Atmel is a 2.7 V–3.6 V single-supply, in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC with 2 Mbit (256K × 8) capacity, 70 ns read access time, and sector-based architecture including one 16 KB boot block with programming lockout. It supports byte-by-byte programming (30 µs/byte typical), 4-second chip erase, and operates across –40°C to +85°C for industrial embedded firmware storage.
For engineers reviewing the AT49BV002AN-70JU datasheet, AT49BV002AN-70JU pinout, AT49BV002AN-70JU application, or AT49BV002AN-70JU equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in replacement for legacy EPROM-based boot code storage where low-voltage operation, hardware data protection, and sector-level erase control are required in microcontroller-based systems.
Technical Context
The AT49BV002AN-70JU implements a standard parallel Flash interface with CE/OE/WE control logic and TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.6 V). Its internal command register executes software-controlled operations-including chip erase, sector erase, byte programming, and boot block lockout-without requiring external high-voltage programming signals.
It features dual end-of-operation detection: DATA polling (I/O7 complement toggle) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggling), both usable during active program/erase cycles. The RESET pin is NC on this variant, disabling reset-triggered boot block override and simplifying system-level reset handling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Capacity | 2 Mbit (262,144 × 8), organized as 256K words × 8 bits - sufficient for full bootloader + parameter storage in resource-constrained MCU systems. |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns max - enables direct execution from Flash (XIP) in 12.5 MHz bus systems without wait states. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3 V logic rails and battery-backed operation without level-shifting. |
| Active Current | 15 mA typical at 5 MHz - supports low-power firmware update modes while maintaining real-time responsiveness. |
| Standby Current | 50 µA CMOS - reduces quiescent power in always-on embedded controllers during sleep. |
| Erase Cycle Time | 4 seconds typical for full chip erase - enables field firmware updates within sub-5-second service windows. |
| Programming End Detection | DATA polling (I/O7) and Toggle Bit (I/O6) - eliminates need for fixed timing delays in host firmware drivers. |
Pinout & Package
AT49BV002AN-70JU is packaged in a 32-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), JEDEC MS-016 variation AE compliant, with 1.27 mm pitch and pin 1 identifier marked by corner chamfer. Pin 1 is NC (no connect) per datasheet Rev. 3353D.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A17 | Address Inputs | 18-bit address bus supporting full 256K-word addressing; A11 is don't-care in command sequences. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; must be low with OE low and WE high for valid read access; controls device selection on shared data buses. |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; used with CE to prevent bus contention during multi-device reads. |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; latches address/data during command sequences and byte programming cycles. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Data Inputs/Outputs | Bi-directional 8-bit data bus; carries command codes, product ID, and user data; supports true read/write without direction control pins. |
| VCC / GND | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; GND referenced for all I/O and internal logic; no separate VPP required. |
| RESET* | No Connect | Pin 1 on PLCC package is NC for AT49BV002AN(T); boot block override via 12 V on RESET is disabled. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Programming Lockout | 16 KB protected region (00000H–03FFFH) prevents accidental overwrite of bootloader code once enabled via 6-byte command sequence. |
| Sector Erase Architecture | One 16 KB boot block + two 8 KB parameter blocks + four main blocks (32 KB + 3×64 KB) - enables selective firmware updates without full chip erase. |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense (<1.8 V inhibits programming), noise filter (rejects <15 ns pulses), and control-line interlock (OE low/CE high/WE high blocks writes). |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | Real-time, bus-compatible status reporting via I/O7 complement or I/O6 toggle - removes dependency on fixed timeout loops in host firmware. |
| Single 2.7–3.6 V Operation | Eliminates need for 5 V or 12 V programming supplies; supports direct integration into 3.3 V microcontroller systems with no voltage translation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE | Same 2 Mbit density, 70 ns access, 3.3 V supply; uses different command set and lacks boot block lockout. | Requires modified firmware driver for erase/program commands; no hardware-protected boot region. | Choose when migrating legacy SST39VF designs; verify command compatibility and implement software-based boot protection. |
| MX29LV200CTTI-70G | 2 Mbit, 3.3 V, 70 ns; includes CFI query support and top/bottom boot block options but no NC RESET pin. | Supports standardized CFI identification; boot block location configurable (top or bottom), unlike fixed 00000H–03FFFH in AT49BV002AN-70JU. | Prefer for new designs needing CFI compliance or flexible boot sector placement; requires updated initialization routines. |
Compared with SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE and MX29LV200CTTI-70G, the AT49BV002AN-70JU offers deterministic boot block lockout with no firmware overhead, NC RESET simplification, and proven interoperability with Atmel MCU toolchains - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, long-lifecycle industrial firmware storage.

FAQ
What is the function of the NC pin on AT49BV002AN-70JU?
The NC (No Connect) pin on AT49BV002AN-70JU is pin 1 in the PLCC package, explicitly designated as non-functional per datasheet Rev. 3353D. Unlike the base AT49BV002A variant, the AT49BV002AN-70JU omits RESET functionality - meaning boot block override via 12 V on that pin is unavailable. This simplifies PCB layout and eliminates high-voltage routing concerns in 3.3 V-only systems.
Does AT49BV002AN-70JU support in-system programming without external high voltage?
Yes, AT49BV002AN-70JU supports full in-system programming using only its 2.7–3.6 V VCC supply - no external VPP or 12 V signals are required. All command sequences (including chip erase, sector erase, and byte programming) execute via standard WE/CE/OE timing with 5 V–compatible logic levels, enabling direct integration with 3.3 V microcontrollers.
How is boot block protection implemented in AT49BV002AN-70JU?
Boot block protection in AT49BV002AN-70JU is implemented via a 6-byte software command sequence that permanently disables programming and erasure of the 16 KB boot sector (00000H–03FFFH). Once enabled, the lockout cannot be reversed - even with power cycling - ensuring bootloader integrity across firmware updates and field deployments.
What are the valid operating temperature and supply ranges for AT49BV002AN-70JU?
AT49BV002AN-70JU is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C and requires a single 2.7 V to 3.6 V supply. Its DC characteristics - including 15 mA active current and 50 µA CMOS standby current - are guaranteed across this full range, making it suitable for uncontrolled ambient environments like factory floors or vehicle cabins.
Can AT49BV002AN-70JU be used as a direct replacement for EPROMs like 27C020?
Yes, AT49BV002AN-70JU is pin-compatible and functionally compatible with 27C020 EPROMs in read mode (CE/OE/WE timing), but adds in-system reprogrammability without UV erasure. Its 70 ns access time matches 27C020-70, and the same 32-pin PLCC footprint allows drop-in replacement - provided host firmware is updated to handle Flash-specific commands and DATA polling.
