Product details
Overview
AT49LV001T-90JI from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 1 Mbit (128K × 8) single-supply 3.0–3.6 V in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC used for nonvolatile code and data storage in embedded microcontroller systems. It delivers 90 ns read access time, 10-second chip erase, byte-programmable operation (30 µs/byte typical), sector-based architecture with boot-block protection, and operates across -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
For engineers reviewing the AT49LV001T-90JI datasheet, AT49LV001T-90JI pinout, AT49LV001T-90JI application, or AT49LV001T-90JI equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, package-specific pin functions, real-world use cases in firmware storage and configuration retention, and validated alternative parts with documented functional and architectural differences.
Technical Context
The AT49LV001T-90JI implements a standard parallel Flash interface with CE/OE/WE control logic and supports hardware reset-driven boot-block reprogramming override at 12 V. Its internal command register executes software-controlled erase and program operations without external high-voltage circuitry.
Memory organization comprises one 16-Kbyte boot block (address 1C000H–1FFFFH), two 8-Kbyte parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (32K and 64K bytes). Boot block lockout is enabled via six-cycle command sequence and persists under ≤5.5 V; override requires RESET pin driven to 12 V ± 0.5 V during operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Mbit (131,072 × 8 bits) - sufficient for bootloader, firmware image, or configuration tables in 8-bit/16-bit MCU systems |
| Read Access Time | 90 ns - enables direct execution from Flash (XIP) in timing-critical embedded applications |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3 V system rails; no 5 V support required |
| Erase Cycle Time | 10 seconds (full chip) - deterministic erase duration simplifies firmware update state machine design |
| Program Speed | 30 µs/byte typical - allows rapid field updates of small configuration segments without long delays |
| End-of-Operation Detection | DATA polling (I/O7 complement) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggling) - eliminates need for fixed-timing delays in host firmware |
| Endurance | 10,000 write/erase cycles - suitable for infrequent firmware upgrades and persistent parameter logging |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded controllers and automotive body electronics |
Pinout & Package
AT49LV001T-90JI is supplied in a 32-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) package with J-bend leads, pin-compatible with industry-standard 32-pin PLCC sockets and PCB footprints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 128K-word addressing; A16 enables access beyond 64K boundary |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bi-directional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel data path for read, program, and identification modes; TTL-compatible I/O levels |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; must be low with OE low and WE high for valid read access |
| 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 | Hardware Reset Input | Active-low reset; 12 V override capability enables boot-block reprogramming after lockout activation |
| VCC | Power Supply | 3.0–3.6 V supply; internal voltage regulation ensures stable core operation across rail tolerance |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power ground return; decoupling capacitor placement critical for noise immunity during programming |
| DC / NC | No Connect / Don't Connect | Pin 1 (PLCC top view) is DC - must remain unconnected; not usable as signal or bypass |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Sector Architecture with Boot Block | 16-Kbyte boot block (1C000H–1FFFFH) supports secure bootloader storage; lockout prevents accidental overwrite during field updates |
| Single 3.3 V Supply Operation | Eliminates need for charge pumps or dual-rail regulators - reduces BOM count and layout complexity in 3.3 V systems |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense (<1.8 V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulses ignored), and control-line interlock prevent spurious writes |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit | Two independent, software-readable status mechanisms allow robust, timing-agnostic host firmware control of erase/program completion |
| 12 V RESET Override | Enables recovery of locked boot block without device replacement - critical for field-deployed systems requiring firmware rollback |
| Industrial Temperature Range | Qualified from -40°C to +85°C - supports deployment in harsh environments including factory automation and transportation electronics |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SST39VF010-90-4C-NHE | 3.0–3.6 V supply, 90 ns access, 1 Mbit density, but uses different command set and lacks 12 V RESET override | No hardware boot-block recovery path; relies solely on software lock mechanisms vulnerable to corruption | Select when command-set compatibility with existing SST39VF firmware drivers is required and boot-block override is unnecessary |
| MX29LV001CTTI-90G | Same 3.0–3.6 V supply and 90 ns timing, but boot block located at 00000H–03FFFH (not 1C000H–1FFFFH); no 12 V RESET feature | Boot block address mismatch prevents drop-in replacement; requires PCB-level address decoding changes | Select only if legacy board design already uses MX29LV001C footprint and boot block location aligns with system memory map |
Compared with SST39VF010-90-4C-NHE and MX29LV001CTTI-90G, the AT49LV001T-90JI uniquely combines industrial temperature rating, verified 12 V RESET override for boot-block recovery, and boot block positioned at top of address space (1C000H–1FFFFH), enabling clean separation from main firmware in memory-constrained systems.

FAQ
What is the correct boot block address range for AT49LV001T-90JI?
The AT49LV001T-90JI boot block occupies addresses 1C000H to 1FFFFH (16 Kbytes), distinct from non-T variants that use 00000H–03FFFH. This top-aligned mapping avoids overlap with typical MCU vector tables and simplifies memory partitioning in systems with limited address space.
Does AT49LV001T-90JI support 5 V operation?
No, AT49LV001T-90JI is strictly a 3.0–3.6 V device. It does not tolerate 5 V on any pin except RESET during override mode (12 V ± 0.5 V). Applying 5 V to VCC, I/O, or control pins violates absolute maximum ratings and may cause permanent damage.
How is boot block lockout disabled or overridden on AT49LV001T-90JI?
Once enabled, boot block lockout cannot be disabled via software. However, AT49LV001T-90JI supports hardware override: applying 12 V ± 0.5 V to the RESET pin during chip erase, sector erase, or byte program operations temporarily disables lockout, allowing boot block reprogramming.
What package type is used for AT49LV001T-90JI?
AT49LV001T-90JI is packaged in a 32-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC) with J-bend leads (package code 32J). It is socket-compatible with standard 32-pin PLCC sockets and matches the footprint of other AT49BV/LV001(N)(T) variants in PLCC form.
Can AT49LV001T-90JI be used in place of AT49LV001-90JI?
No - AT49LV001T-90JI and AT49LV001-90JI differ in boot block location (1C000H–1FFFFH vs. 00000H–03FFFH) and sector address mapping. Substituting them requires firmware and hardware address decoding changes; they are not functionally interchangeable without system-level validation.
