Product details
Overview
AT49F002T-70JI from Atmel is a 5V-only, 2 Mbit (256K × 8) in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC with 70 ns read access time, 10 µs/byte programming, 10-second erase cycle, and industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). It features sector architecture including a 16K-byte boot block with programmable lockout, used for secure firmware storage in embedded controllers and BIOS applications.
For engineers reviewing the AT49F002T-70JI datasheet, AT49F002T-70JI pinout, AT49F002T-70JI application, or AT49F002T-70JI equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated PLCC-32 pin mapping, boot-block protection behavior, DATA polling and toggle-bit status detection, and direct alternatives for industrial-grade Flash replacement.
Technical Context
The AT49F002T-70JI implements a command-based software-controlled architecture requiring no high-voltage programming inputs. Its internal control logic interprets six-cycle command sequences (e.g., 5555h/AAh → 2AAAh/55h → 5555h/80h) to initiate chip erase, sector erase, byte programming, or boot-block lockout - all executed autonomously without external timing clocks.
It supports standard EPROM-like read operation via CE/OE/WE control with dual-line bus contention prevention, and includes hardware data protection via VCC sense (<3.8 V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulses ignored), and active inhibit conditions (OE low, CE high, or WE high blocks writes). The RESET pin enables system-level reset and - uniquely on the T variant - 12 V override of boot-block lockout.
Key Specifications

Use Scenario: Hosting secure boot code in network-connected edge devices where firmware authenticity and update resilience are critical. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary boot memory mapped at reset vector; provides deterministic 70 ns read latency for first instruction fetch. Use Value: 12 V RESET override allows recovery from corrupted boot sectors without device replacement; DATA polling avoids fixed delay loops in boot ROM. |
| Legacy Industrial Instrumentation | Automotive Diagnostic Module Memory |
Use Scenario: Replacing EPROMs in aging test equipment requiring field-upgradable calibration tables and measurement algorithms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Drop-in 5 V-compatible Flash replacing UV-erasable EPROMs; uses identical CE/OE/WE timing interface. Use Value: 10,000 write cycles and industrial temp rating extend service life beyond EPROM limits; no UV window or socket required. |
Use Scenario: Storing diagnostic firmware and vehicle-specific configuration in OBD-II modules deployed in engine compartments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: In-system reprogrammable memory supporting dealer-level firmware updates over CAN; operates reliably at 85°C ambient. Use Value: Sector architecture isolates boot code (protected) from application code (field-updatable); 100 µA standby current minimizes battery drain during vehicle sleep mode. |
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 | 3.3 V supply, 70 ns access, 2 Mbit, PLCC-32; lacks RESET-based boot override | Requires 3.3 V system design; no 12 V boot unlock - unsuitable for legacy 5 V recovery workflows | Select only if migrating to 3.3 V architecture and boot protection via software-only methods is acceptable |
| MX29LV200CBTI-70G | 3.0–3.6 V supply, 70 ns, 2 Mbit, TSOP-48; boot block at top address, no RESET override | Lower voltage, different package and pinout; incompatible with PLCC-32 footprint and 5 V logic levels | Choose for space-constrained designs needing TSOP; requires PCB redesign and level-shifting for 5 V systems |
Compared with SST39VF200A-70-4C-NHE and MX29LV200CBTI-70G, the AT49F002T-70JI uniquely retains full 5 V compatibility, PLCC-32 drop-in fit, and hardware-enabled boot recovery - making it irreplaceable in legacy industrial upgrades where voltage and form factor constraints are fixed.

FAQ
What is the boot block address range for AT49F002T-70JI?
The boot block for AT49F002T-70JI occupies addresses 3C000h to 3FFFFh (16 KB). This differs from the base AT49F002(N) variant, which locates the boot block at 00000h–03FFFh. The upper-address placement in the T variant avoids conflict with standard reset vectors in many 8051 and Z80-based systems, and is confirmed in the datasheet's memory map and boot lockout detection section (read from 3C002h).
Does AT49F002T-70JI support 12 V RESET override of boot block lockout?
Yes, AT49F002T-70JI supports 12 V ±0.5 V applied to the RESET pin to temporarily disable boot block programming lockout - enabling chip erase, sector erase, or byte programming of the protected region. This feature is explicitly documented as unavailable on the N(T) variant and is a defining characteristic of the T suffix, per the "Boot Block Programming Lockout Override" section.
What package type is used for AT49F002T-70JI?
AT49F002T-70JI uses a 32-lead Plastic J-Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), designated as package code "32J" in Atmel's ordering information. The datasheet confirms pin 9 is NC (no connect) for this variant, and mechanical dimensions align with JEDEC MS-016 AE standard - verified in the Packaging Information section (page 16).
How is end-of-program detected on AT49F002T-70JI?
AT49F002T-70JI provides two hardware-supported methods: DATA polling (reading the programmed byte returns its complement on I/O7 until completion) and toggle-bit detection (I/O6 toggles between 0 and 1 during programming and stabilizes upon completion). Both are specified in AC characteristics and require no external timing components - confirmed in the "DATA Polling" and "Toggle Bit" subsections.
Is AT49F002T-70JI pin-compatible with AT49F002N-70JI?
No - AT49F002T-70JI and AT49F002N-70JI are not pin-compatible. While both use PLCC-32 packaging, the RESET pin on the T variant supports 12 V override and functions as an active-low reset input, whereas the N(T) variant explicitly states RESET is not available. Datasheet Section 3 ("RESET") and Ordering Information (page 13) confirm functional and electrical incompatibility at the RESET terminal.
