Product details
Overview
AT49BV002AN-70PI 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-erasable architecture including one 16 KB boot block with programming lockout-used for secure firmware storage in embedded controllers and industrial boot loaders.
For engineers reviewing the AT49BV002AN-70PI datasheet, AT49BV002AN-70PI pinout, AT49BV002AN-70PI application, or AT49BV002AN-70PI equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, PLCC-32 package mapping, boot-block protection behavior, byte-programming timing (30 µs), and real-world use context for legacy system upgrades and field-reprogrammable firmware storage.
Technical Context
The AT49BV002AN-70PI implements a standard parallel Flash interface with CE/OE/WE control logic, supports EPROM-like read operation, and uses command sequences (e.g., 6-byte chip erase, 4-byte byte program) latched on WE/CE edges. It features internal program timers and DATA polling (I/O7 complement) or toggle-bit (I/O6) status detection.
Its sector architecture comprises one 16 KB boot block (00000H–03FFFH), two 8 KB parameter blocks, and four main memory blocks (32 KB + 3×64 KB). The RESET pin is NC on this variant, disabling both reset functionality and boot-block lockout override via 12 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 2 Mbit (262,144 × 8), enabling full BIOS or bootloader storage in space-constrained industrial controllers |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns max - meets timing requirements for 14 MHz bus interfaces without wait states |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3 V systems and battery-backed operation |
| Byte Programming Time | 30 µs typical - enables rapid field updates of small firmware patches |
| Erase Cycle Time | 4 seconds max for full chip - supports in-system reprogramming during maintenance windows |
| End-of-Program Detection | DATA polling (I/O7) or toggle-bit (I/O6) - eliminates need for fixed delay timers in host firmware |
| Write Endurance | 10,000 program/erase cycles - sufficient for infrequent firmware revisions over 10+ year product life |
Pinout & Package
AT49BV002AN-70PI is housed in a 32-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC-32) package per JEDEC MS-016, Variation AE, with 1.27 mm pitch, 12.45 mm × 14.95 mm body, and pin 1 identifier at corner. 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 cycles |
| 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 data bus tristate to prevent contention during shared-bus operation |
| 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 parallel interface for read data output and program data input; supports DATA polling on I/O7 |
| VCC | Power Supply | +2.7 V to +3.6 V supply; powers core logic and I/O buffers; CMOS standby current ≤50 µA |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return; required for stable read/write margins and noise immunity |
| RESET | No Connect (NC) | Pin 1 on PLCC package is unconnected - no reset function or boot-lock override capability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Programming Lockout | 16 KB region (00000H–03FFFH) permanently protected after enable command - prevents accidental overwrite of critical startup code |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense (<1.8 V inhibits programming), noise filter (rejects <15 ns glitches), and control-line inhibit (OE low/CE high/WE high blocks writes) |
| Sector-Erasable Architecture | Independent erasure of boot block, two 8 KB parameter blocks, and four main memory blocks - enables selective firmware updates without full chip erase |
| Standard Parallel Interface | CE/OE/WE control signals and EPROM-compatible timing - simplifies migration from EPROM-based designs with minimal PCB changes |
| Low-Power Operation | 15 mA active current and 50 µA CMOS standby current - suitable for battery-backed or energy-sensitive industrial applications |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Firmware Storage | Legacy Embedded Controller Bootloader |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Storing boot firmware in programmable logic controllers where field updates must preserve startup integrity. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile boot memory providing deterministic reset-to-execution path with hardware-protected boot sector.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM29LV002BT-70EC | 3.0 V–3.6 V supply only; lacks 2.7 V low-voltage support; 70 ns access; same 2 Mbit density and PLCC-32 package | No boot-block lockout; uses CFI-compliant command set instead of Atmel's proprietary sequence | Choose when CFI compatibility or higher minimum VCC is acceptable and boot protection is handled externally |
| SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE | 2.7 V–3.6 V supply; 70 ns access; 2 Mbit density; PLCC-32; includes hardware write-protect pin (WP#) | Uniform 64 KB sectors (no dedicated boot block); WP# offers simpler external lockout vs. command-based boot lock | Prefer for new designs needing explicit hardware-level write protection and standardized sector layout |
Compared with AM29LV002BT-70EC and SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE, the AT49BV002AN-70PI uniquely provides factory-configurable 16 KB boot-block lockout with software-detectable status, making it optimal for legacy systems requiring guaranteed boot-code immutability without external logic.

FAQ
What is the function of the RESET pin on AT49BV002AN-70PI?
The RESET pin on AT49BV002AN-70PI is a no-connect (NC) terminal per datasheet Rev. 3353D - it is not bonded internally and serves no functional purpose. Unlike the base AT49BV002A variant, this part does not support reset-driven operations or 12 V boot-block override. Host systems must manage reset sequencing externally when using AT49BV002AN-70PI.
Does AT49BV002AN-70PI support boot block programming lockout, and how is it enabled?
Yes, AT49BV002AN-70PI supports boot block programming lockout for its 16 KB boot sector (00000H–03FFFH). It is enabled via a six-cycle command sequence: load AAh at 555H, 55h at AAH, 80h at 555H, then AAh/55h/40h at 555H/AAH/555H. Once enabled, the boot block becomes permanently write-protected under ≤5.5 V - a key safeguard for AT49BV002AN-70PI in mission-critical boot applications.
What package type is used for AT49BV002AN-70PI, and what are its key mechanical dimensions?
AT49BV002AN-70PI uses a 32-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC-32) package per JEDEC MS-016, Variation AE. Its body measures 12.45 mm × 14.95 mm, with 1.27 mm lead pitch and 3.35 mm maximum height. Pin 1 is located at the top-left corner with a chamfered edge identifier, and pin 1 is NC - a defining mechanical and functional trait of the AT49BV002AN-70PI variant.
How does AT49BV002AN-70PI handle end-of-program detection during byte programming?
AT49BV002AN-70PI supports two hardware-supported end-of-program detection methods: DATA polling (I/O7 returns complement of programmed data until completion, then true data) and toggle-bit (I/O6 toggles between 0/1 during programming and stabilizes upon completion). Both methods eliminate fixed-timing delays in host firmware and are fully operational during AT49BV002AN-70PI byte programming cycles.
What is the maximum erase time for AT49BV002AN-70PI, and which blocks can be erased independently?
The maximum chip erase time for AT49BV002AN-70PI is 8 seconds (typical 4 s), while sector erase time is identical. Independently erasable blocks include the 16 KB boot block, two 8 KB parameter blocks, and four main memory blocks (32 KB + 3×64 KB). If boot lockout is enabled, chip erase excludes the boot block - a critical behavior confirmed for AT49BV002AN-70PI in datasheet section "CHIP ERASE".
