Product details
Overview
AT49BV002T-12TI from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 2 Mbit (256K × 8) single-supply Flash memory IC designed for in-system reprogrammability in embedded boot code storage. It operates at 2.7–3.6 V, delivers 120 ns read access time, supports sector-erase architecture with a 16 KB boot block (address range 3C000H–3FFFFH), and guarantees ≥10,000 write/erase cycles. It is used in industrial microcontroller boot loaders where secure, field-upgradable firmware storage is required.
For engineers reviewing the AT49BV002T-12TI datasheet, AT49BV002T-12TI pinout, AT49BV002T-12TI application, or AT49BV002T-12TI equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific pin functions, boot-block protection behavior, DATA polling and toggle-bit status detection, and validated alternative parts for industrial temperature-range Flash memory replacement.
Technical Context
The AT49BV002T-12TI implements a command-based software-controlled Flash architecture with six-byte erase/program sequences, internal timing for chip and sector erase (10 s max), and hardware data protection via VCC sense, noise filtering (<15 ns pulse rejection), and control-line inhibit logic. It uses standard CE/OE/WE interface timing compatible with microprocessor buses.
Its sector organization includes one 16 KB boot block (3C000H–3FFFFH), two 8 KB parameter blocks (3A000H–3BFFFH and 38000H–39FFFH), and two main memory blocks (20000H–37FFFH and 00000H–1FFFFH). Boot block lockout-enabled via 6-cycle command sequence-prevents programming under ≤5.5 V, but allows override via 12 V on RESET during erase/program.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 2 Mbit (256K × 8), directly addressable as 262,144 bytes |
| Read Access Time | 120 ns - determines maximum bus clock rate for reliable read operations |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - enables direct connection to 3.3 V systems without level shifting |
| Active Current | 25 mA - defines peak power draw during read or program cycles |
| Standby Current | 50 µA CMOS - enables low-power retention in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications |
| Erase Cycle Time | 10 seconds (max) - sets minimum latency for full-chip or sector-erase operations |
| Byte Programming Time | 30 µs typical - establishes worst-case delay before next memory access can begin |
| Endurance | ≥10,000 program/erase cycles - specifies usable lifetime under repeated firmware updates |
Pinout & Package
AT49BV002T-12TI is packaged in a 32-lead TSOP (Type 1, 8 × 20 mm), compliant with JEDEC MO-153. Pin 1 is A16; pin 9 is NC (not connected) per datasheet Rev. 0982D–FLASH–02/03.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A17 | Address Inputs | 18-bit address bus supporting full 256K-byte addressing; A17 selects upper/lower half of memory map |
| 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 control; used with CE to prevent bus contention during shared-memory access |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; latches address/data on falling/rising edges per command cycle timing |
| RESET | Reset Input | Active-low reset; applying 12 V enables boot block override during erase/program; not available on N-suffix variants |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Data I/O Bus | Bi-directional 8-bit data path; carries command data, product ID codes, and memory contents |
| VCC | Power Supply | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; powers core logic, charge pumps, and I/O buffers |
| GND | Ground Reference | Return path for all internal circuits and I/O signaling; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Programming Lockout | 16 KB protected region (3C000H–3FFFFH); lock enabled via 6-cycle command; prevents accidental overwrite of boot code under ≤5.5 V |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | I/O7 complement indicates programming completion; I/O6 toggling signals active erase/program - enables polling-based firmware update without timers |
| Sector-Erase Architecture | Independent erasure of boot block, two 8 KB parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks - supports modular firmware updates without full-chip erase |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense (<1.8 V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulses ignored), and control-line inhibit (OE low/CE high/WE high blocks writes) |
| 12 V RESET Override | Applying 12 V ±0.5 V to RESET pin during operation bypasses boot block lockout - enables recovery of corrupted boot sectors in field-deployed units |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Firmware Storage | Medical Device Boot Loader |

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 | 2 Mbit, 70 ns access, 3.0–3.6 V, 48-pin TSOP; no boot block lockout; uses different command set | Lacks dedicated boot sector protection and 12 V override; requires firmware redesign for secure boot flow | Choose when faster read speed is critical and boot security is handled externally. |
| MX29LV200CTTI-12G | 2 Mbit, 120 ns access, 2.7–3.6 V, 48-pin TSOP; top-boot configuration (00000H–03FFFH), no RESET override | Boot block resides at lowest address; no hardware mechanism to unlock protected boot sector post-enablement | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where boot block location matches legacy layout and override is unnecessary. |
Compared with SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE and MX29LV200CTTI-12G, the AT49BV002T-12TI uniquely combines industrial temperature support, top-boot sector placement (3C000H–3FFFFH), and 12 V RESET override-enabling field-recoverable secure boot in long-lifecycle embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the boot block address range for AT49BV002T-12TI?
The AT49BV002T-12TI features a 16 KB boot block located at address range 3C000H to 3FFFFH - distinct from the base-address boot block (00000H–03FFFH) used in non-T suffix variants. This top-boot configuration isolates startup code from main application memory, reducing corruption risk during partial updates. The AT49BV002T-12TI datasheet confirms this mapping in Section 6, "Notes".
Does AT49BV002T-12TI support 12 V programming override?
Yes, AT49BV002T-12TI supports 12 V ±0.5 V applied to the RESET pin during chip erase, sector erase, or byte programming to temporarily disable boot block lockout - a feature absent in N-suffix variants. This allows authorized recovery of locked boot sectors in deployed systems. The AT49BV002T-12TI datasheet specifies this in the "Boot Block Programming Lockout Override" section.
What package type is used by AT49BV002T-12TI?
AT49BV002T-12TI is supplied in a 32-lead Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP, Type 1, 8 × 20 mm), designated as package code "32T". Pin 9 is not connected (NC), consistent with the AT49BV/LV002(N)(T) family specification. This TSOP variant enables high-density PCB layouts and compatibility with standard surface-mount assembly processes.
How does AT49BV002T-12TI indicate programming completion?
AT49BV002T-12TI provides two hardware status methods: DATA polling (I/O7 returns complement of loaded data until completion, then true data) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggles between 0 and 1 during active programming/erasing, then stabilizes). Both mechanisms allow firmware to detect completion without fixed delays - a key design advantage confirmed in the "DATA Polling" and "Toggle Bit" sections of the AT49BV002T-12TI datasheet.
Is AT49BV002T-12TI compatible with standard microprocessor bus timing?
Yes, AT49BV002T-12TI uses industry-standard CE/OE/WE control signaling and complies with common microprocessor read/write timing: CE and OE low + WE high enables read mode; WE low with CE low and OE high initiates write cycles. Its AC characteristics - including tACC = 120 ns, tWP = 90 ns, and tDH = 0 ns - align with 8051, ARM7, and similar controller interfaces as documented in the AT49BV002T-12TI AC Read and Byte Load Waveforms.
