Product details
Overview
AT49LV001NT-90PC from Atmel is a 1 Mbit (128K × 8) single-supply 3.0–3.6 V Flash memory IC used for nonvolatile program/data storage in embedded microcontroller systems. It delivers 70 ns read access time, 10-second chip erase, byte-programmable architecture with sector protection, and operates across commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C) in 32-pin PDIP package.
For engineers reviewing the AT49LV001NT-90PC datasheet, AT49LV001NT-90PC pinout, AT49LV001NT-90PC application, or AT49LV001NT-90PC equivalent, key selection criteria include boot-block lockout capability, DC/AC timing compliance at 3.3 V, hardware data protection features, and compatibility with standard EPROM-style bus interface protocols.
Technical Context
The AT49LV001NT-90PC implements a sector-organized Flash architecture with one 16-Kbyte boot block (address range 1C000H–1FFFFH), two 8-Kbyte parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (32K and 64K bytes). Its command-set-driven operation uses standard CE/OE/WE control lines and supports software-based chip/sector erase and byte programming without external high-voltage supplies.
It integrates DATA polling and toggle-bit status detection for end-of-program/erase verification, hardware VCC-sense and noise filtering for inadvertent-write prevention, and RESET-triggered boot-block override (12 V on RESET pin) - though RESET is DC-connected and not functional for reset assertion in this N(T) variant.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Capacity | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8), organized as 128K words × 8 bits |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V logic systems without level translation |
| Read Access Time | 90 ns max - meets timing requirements for 11 MHz bus operation with standard microprocessor interfaces |
| Erase Cycle Time | 10 seconds typical for full-chip erase - deterministic internal timing eliminates need for external clocks or timers |

| Endurance | 10,000 write/erase cycles - validated for long-term use in firmware update and data logging applications |
| Standby Current | 50 µA CMOS - enables ultra-low-power retention in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems |
Pinout & Package
AT49LV001NT-90PC is packaged in a 32-pin Plastic Dual In-line Package (PDIP), 0.600" wide, with through-hole mounting. Pin 1 is index corner; pins 1 and 32 are NC (no connect) per datasheet specification.

| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for power and signal integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Programming Lockout | 16-Kbyte protected region (1C000H–1FFFFH) prevents accidental overwrite of critical boot code |
| Sector Erase Flexibility | Independent erasure of two 8-Kbyte parameter blocks and two main memory blocks enables modular firmware updates |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense, OE/CE/WE inhibit logic, and 15 ns noise filter prevent spurious writes during power transients or EMI events |
| Status Detection | DATA polling (I/O7 complement) and toggle-bit (I/O6) provide real-time, software-transparent program/erase completion signaling |
| 3.3 V System Compatibility | No external 5 V or 12 V required for normal operation - simplifies power design and reduces BOM count |
Applications
| Embedded Bootloader Storage | Firmware Configuration Storage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Storing initial boot code for ARM Cortex-M or 8051-based microcontrollers during cold start. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Nonvolatile boot memory mapped to reset vector address space; accessed via standard address/data bus with CE/OE/WE handshaking. Use Value: Boot block lockout ensures bootloader integrity across thousands of field updates while allowing parameter block reprogramming for calibration data. | Use Scenario: Holding device-specific configuration parameters (e.g., sensor offsets, network IDs, calibration coefficients) in industrial PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Parameter block Flash memory updated infrequently via host MCU using sector-erase + byte-program sequence. Use Value: Two independent 8-Kbyte parameter blocks allow A/B versioning - one active while the other is updated - ensuring zero-downtime configuration changes. |
| Legacy EPROM Replacement | Industrial HMI Firmware Storage |
Use Scenario: Direct drop-in replacement for obsolete 27C010 EPROMs in legacy test equipment and telecom line cards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Pin-compatible 32-pin DIP Flash memory operating at same 90 ns access speed and identical CE/OE/WE protocol. Use Value: Eliminates UV erasers and programmers; enables in-system reprogramming via existing JTAG or UART bootloader infrastructure. | Use Scenario: Storing GUI assets and application firmware for touch-based HMIs in factory automation panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main memory block (64K-byte) stores compressed firmware images; accessed sequentially during boot via DMA-capable controller. Use Value: 10,000-cycle endurance supports over-the-air firmware upgrades every 3 months for 8+ years without wear-out concerns. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT49BV001NT-90PC | 2.7–3.6 V supply range; includes BV-grade process for wider voltage tolerance | Supports mixed 2.7 V/3.3 V system rails; suitable for battery-powered designs with voltage droop | Select when system VCC may dip below 3.0 V during brown-out conditions |
| AM29LV001BT-90EC | 3.0–3.6 V supply; 90 ns access; 32-pin TSOP package (not PDIP) | Surface-mount only; lacks boot-block lockout; uses AMD command set (not Atmel) | Choose only if board layout supports TSOP and firmware already implements AMD-compatible command sequences |
Compared with AT49BV001NT-90PC and AM29LV001BT-90EC, the AT49LV001NT-90PC offers tighter voltage regulation (3.0–3.6 V only), guaranteed boot-block lockout, and PDIP packaging for prototyping - making it optimal for 3.3 V embedded designs requiring field-upgradable secure boot code.

FAQ
What is the memory organization of the AT49LV001NT-90PC?
The AT49LV001NT-90PC contains 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8) of Flash memory organized as 128K words × 8 bits. Its physical address space is segmented into one 16-Kbyte boot block (1C000H–1FFFFH), two 8-Kbyte parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (32K and 64K bytes), enabling flexible firmware partitioning and update strategies.
Does the AT49LV001NT-90PC support hardware reset functionality?
No - the RESET pin on the AT49LV001NT-90PC is DC-connected and not functional for asserting reset. It serves solely as a 12 V input for overriding boot-block lockout during programming. Standard reset behavior must be managed externally by the host system's reset controller or processor.
Can the AT49LV001NT-90PC be used as a direct replacement for 27C010 EPROMs?
Yes - the AT49LV001NT-90PC is pin-compatible with 27C010 in 32-pin PDIP and matches its 90 ns access time and 128K × 8 organization. Unlike EPROMs, it requires no UV erasure and supports in-system reprogramming via standard CE/OE/WE control, making it a true drop-in upgrade for legacy designs.
How does boot block lockout work on the AT49LV001NT-90PC?
The AT49LV001NT-90PC allows permanent write protection of its 16-Kbyte boot block (1C000H–1FFFFH) via a six-cycle command sequence. Once enabled, programming or erasing that region is blocked at ≤5.5 V; only applying 12 V to the RESET pin permits override - ensuring bootloader integrity across field updates.
What are the valid operating temperature ranges for the AT49LV001NT-90PC?
The AT49LV001NT-90PC is specified for commercial temperature operation from 0°C to 70°C. It is not rated for industrial (-40°C to +85°C) use - for extended temperature applications, consider the AT49LV001NT-90PI or AT49BV001NT-90JI variants instead.
