Product details
Overview
AT49F002ANT-55VI from Atmel is a 2 Mbit (256K × 8) 5V-only in-system reprogrammable Flash memory with 55 ns read access time, 20 µs/byte programming, and sector-based erase architecture including one 16K-byte boot block, two 8K-byte parameter blocks, and four main memory blocks (32K + 3×64K). It operates across the industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and supports hardware data protection, DATA polling, and toggle-bit status detection for embedded firmware storage applications.
For engineers reviewing the AT49F002ANT-55VI datasheet, AT49F002ANT-55VI pinout, AT49F002ANT-55VI application, or AT49F002ANT-55VI equivalent, key selection considerations include its TSOP-32 (32T) package, boot-block lockout capability, 4-second chip erase time, CMOS standby current of 100 µA, and compatibility with standard EPROM-like CE/OE/WE control interface.
Technical Context
The AT49F002ANT-55VI implements a nonvolatile CMOS Flash architecture with internal program control logic and autonomous erase timing. Its sector organization enables selective erasure of the boot block (3C000–3FFFFH), two parameter blocks (3A000–3BFFFH and 38000–39FFFH), and four main memory blocks (30000–37FFFH, 20000–2FFFFH, 10000–1FFFFH, and 00000–0FFFFH).
It uses standard microprocessor write timings for command execution-including Chip Erase (6-cycle 555/AA–AAA/55–555/80–555/AA–AAA/55–555/10), Sector Erase, Byte Program, and Boot Block Lockout-and supports both hardware and software product identification (Manufacturer Code 1FH, Device Code 08H).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 2 Mbit (262,144 × 8), organized as 256K words × 8 bits |
| Read Access Time | 55 ns - enables direct replacement of fast EPROMs in legacy 8-bit bus systems |
| Byte Programming Time | 20 µs typical - supports rapid field updates without external high-voltage circuitry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM29LV002BT-55REI | 3V/5V dual-voltage operation; 55 ns access; 2 Mbit density; different command set and sector map | Lacks boot block lockout; requires voltage translation in pure 5V systems | Choose when mixed-voltage system integration or extended temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) is required |
| SST39VF020-55-4C-NHE | 3V-only supply; 55 ns access; 2 Mbit density; 64K-byte uniform sectors; no boot block specialization | No dedicated boot protection; incompatible with 5V-only buses without level shifters | Prefer for new 3V designs prioritizing lower active current (18 mA vs. 30 mA) and higher endurance (100K cycles) |
Compared with AM29LV002BT-55REI and SST39VF020-55-4C-NHE, the AT49F002ANT-55VI uniquely delivers 5V-only operation with hardware-enforced boot block lockout and TSOP-32 packaging optimized for legacy board layouts-making it the only option that preserves both electrical compatibility and secure firmware partitioning in existing 5V industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the function of the RESET pin on the AT49F002ANT-55VI?
The RESET pin on the AT49F002ANT-55VI is an active-low input that halts ongoing program or erase operations and places outputs in high-impedance state. Unlike earlier variants, the AT49F002ANT-55VI does not support 12V boot block override via RESET - this feature is explicitly disabled in the AN(T) family per datasheet Section 4.3. The pin remains functional for basic reset coordination but cannot unlock protected boot sectors.
Does the AT49F002ANT-55VI support true 5V-only programming without external high-voltage generators?
Yes, the AT49F002ANT-55VI supports full 5V-only programming: read, byte programming, sector erase, and chip erase all operate at VCC = 5V ±10%. No external 12V or 12.5V supplies are needed. Internal charge pumps generate required programming voltages, and hardware data protection (VCC sense, noise filtering, control-line inhibition) ensures reliable operation solely from the 5V rail - a core design goal confirmed in the "Single-voltage Operation" feature list.
How is the boot block physically located and protected in the AT49F002ANT-55VI?
In the AT49F002ANT-55VI, the 16K-byte boot block occupies address range 3C000H–3FFFFH. Protection is enforced via a six-cycle command sequence (555/AA → AAA/55 → 555/80 → 555/AA → AAA/55 → 555/40) that permanently disables programming and erasure of this region under 5.5V. Once enabled, the lockout is irreversible without 12V RESET - which is unavailable on the AN(T) variant - making the boot block truly permanent for secure bootloader storage.
What package type and pin count does the AT49F002ANT-55VI use?
The AT49F002ANT-55VI uses a 32-lead Plastic Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP Type I, 8 × 20 mm), designated package code 32T per Atmel's Ordering Information table. Pin 9 is explicitly defined as no-connect (NC) for this variant. The pinout matches standard 32-pin Flash memory footprints and is mechanically and electrically compatible with industry-standard TSOP sockets used in industrial PCBs.
Can the AT49F002ANT-55VI be used as a direct replacement for EPROMs like the 27C020?
Yes, the AT49F002ANT-55VI is designed as a functional and pin-compatible replacement for 27C020 EPROMs in 5V systems. It shares identical 32-pin TSOP packaging, 256K × 8 organization, and EPROM-like CE/OE/WE control interface. Read timing (55 ns) meets or exceeds 27C020-55 specifications, and no hardware modifications are needed - though firmware must implement Flash-specific command sequences for programming instead of UV-erasure.
