Product details
Overview
AT49LV002-12TI from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 2-Mbit (256K × 8) single-supply 3.0–3.6V in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC used for nonvolatile code and data storage in embedded microcontroller systems. It delivers 120 ns read access time, 10-second chip erase, byte-programmable operation (30 µs/byte typical), and hardware data protection - enabling secure boot code retention in industrial control firmware updates.
For engineers reviewing the AT49LV002-12TI datasheet, AT49LV002-12TI pinout, AT49LV002-12TI application, or AT49LV002-12TI equivalent, key selection criteria include its 32-pin TSOP package, boot block lockout capability (3C000–3FFFFH), DATA polling/Toggle Bit end-of-write detection, and compatibility with standard 5V-command protocols despite 3.3V-only operation.
Technical Context
This device implements a sector-architected Flash array with one 16K-byte boot block (address 3C000–3FFFFH), two 8K-byte parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (96K + 128K bytes). Its command interface uses standard microprocessor CE/OE/WE timing with six-cycle sequences for chip/sector erase and boot lock enable.
Operation relies on internal voltage generation for programming - no external high-voltage supply required - and includes VCC sense, noise filtering (<15 ns pulse rejection), and RESET-driven boot override (12V on RESET pin). The device 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 (256K × 8), organized as 262,144 words × 8 bits - sufficient for full bootloader + configuration data in resource-constrained MCU systems. |
| Read Access Time | 120 ns max - meets timing requirements for 8 MHz Z80, 68K, or early ARM7 bus interfaces without wait states. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3V logic families and battery-backed industrial power rails. |
| Byte Programming Time | 30 µs typical - enables rapid field firmware patching without system downtime. |
| Erase Cycle Time | 10 seconds max for full chip erase - deterministic timing simplifies host controller timeout handling. |
| End-of-Write Detection | DATA polling (I/O7 complement) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggling) - eliminates need for fixed delays during programming. |
| Write Endurance | 10,000 program/erase cycles - validated for long-life industrial logging and configuration storage. |
Pinout & Package
AT49LV002-12TI is supplied in a 32-lead Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP, Type 1, 8 × 20 mm), pin-compatible with industry-standard 32-pin Flash memory footprints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A17 | Address Inputs | 18-bit address bus supporting full 256K-word addressing; A0–A16 used for byte-level access, A17 selects upper/lower half of memory map. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Data Input/Output | Bi-directional 8-bit data bus; supports true read-modify-write cycles and DATA polling on I/O7/I/O6. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; must be low with OE low and WE high for valid read access - prevents bus contention in multi-device systems. |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output control; allows memory sharing on common data bus without tri-state conflicts. |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; latches address/data on falling/rising edges per command sequence timing. |
| RESET | Reset Input | Active-low reset; halts ongoing operations and forces high-Z outputs; 12V input enables boot block reprogramming even when lockout is active. |
| VCC | Power Supply | +3.0 to +3.6 V supply; powers internal charge pump for programming/erase - no external HV required. |
| GND | Ground | Reference for all I/O and internal circuitry; requires low-impedance connection to minimize noise during erase pulses. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Lockout | 16K-byte protected region (3C000–3FFFFH) with programmable lockout - ensures bootloader integrity during field firmware updates. |
| Hardware Data Protection | VCC sense (<1.8V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulses ignored), and CE/OE/WE state validation - prevents accidental writes during power transients. |
| Sector Erase Flexibility | Independent erasure of two 8K parameter blocks and two main memory blocks (96K/128K) - enables selective firmware module updates without full chip erase. |
| Standard Command Interface | 6-cycle command sequences (e.g., 5555h/AAh → 2AAAh/55h → 5555h/80h) using only CE/OE/WE - eliminates need for custom programming hardware. |
| Low Power Operation | 25 mA active current and 50 µA CMOS standby current - suitable for battery-powered or thermally constrained industrial nodes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SST39VF020-70-4C-NHE | 3.0–3.6V, 70 ns access, 2 Mbit, same 32-pin TSOP but lacks RESET-based boot override and has no dedicated boot block lockout command. | Supports basic firmware storage but requires external logic for boot protection; not suitable for safety-critical bootloader retention. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for hardware-enforced boot integrity. |
| MX29LV002CTTI-12 | 3.0–3.6V, 120 ns access, 2 Mbit, 32-pin TSOP, includes boot block (16K) but uses different command set (AAh/55h/80h vs. Atmel's 5555h/2AAAh sequence) and no 12V RESET override. | Compatible for read/write functions but requires firmware adaptation for erase/lock commands; boot lock status detection differs. | Select for drop-in replacement where existing driver support exists for Macronix command protocol. |
Compared with SST39VF020-70-4C-NHE and MX29LV002CTTI-12, the AT49LV002-12TI uniquely combines deterministic 12V RESET-based boot reflash, standardized Atmel command compatibility, and explicit DATA polling/Toggle Bit feedback - making it preferred for systems requiring field-recoverable, auditable firmware updates.

FAQ
What is the memory organization of the AT49LV002-12TI?
The AT49LV002-12TI contains 2 Mbit (256K × 8) of Flash memory, organized as 262,144 words by 8 bits. Its physical address space spans 00000H to 3FFFFH, with the boot block located at 3C000H–3FFFFH, two 8K parameter blocks, and two main memory blocks (96K and 128K bytes). This layout enables modular firmware partitioning and selective sector erasure in the AT49LV002-12TI.
Does the AT49LV002-12TI require a high-voltage supply for programming?
No, the AT49LV002-12TI does not require an external high-voltage supply for programming or erasing. It uses an internal charge pump powered solely by the 3.0–3.6V VCC rail. All command sequences - including byte programming, sector erase, and boot lock enable - operate at standard logic levels, eliminating the need for HV generators in the AT49LV002-12TI system design.
How is boot block protection implemented in the AT49LV002-12TI?
The AT49LV002-12TI implements boot block protection via a six-cycle command sequence (5555h/AAh → 2AAAh/55h → 5555h/80h → 5555h/AAh → 2AAAh/55h → 5555h/40h) that permanently disables programming and erasure of the 16K-byte boot block (3C000H–3FFFFH). Once enabled, the lockout persists until a 12V signal is applied to the RESET pin during a subsequent operation - a feature unique to the AT49LV002-12TI among its variants.
What methods does the AT49LV002-12TI provide to detect end-of-program completion?
The AT49LV002-12TI offers two hardware-confirmed methods: DATA polling (reading the programmed byte returns its complement on I/O7 until completion, then true data) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggles between 0 and 1 during programming/erase and stabilizes upon completion). Both methods eliminate reliance on fixed timing delays and are fully supported in the AT49LV002-12TI's AC characteristics table.
Is the AT49LV002-12TI pin-compatible with other 32-pin Flash memories?
Yes, the AT49LV002-12TI uses a standard 32-pin TSOP (Type 1) footprint matching JEDEC MO-153, making it mechanically and electrically pin-compatible with other 32-pin 2 Mbit Flash devices such as the SST39VF020 and MX29LV002C. However, command sequences, boot block addressing (3C000H–3FFFFH), and RESET-based override functionality are specific to the AT49LV002-12TI and require firmware validation.
