Product details
Overview
AT49LV002T-70PC 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 70 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 AT49LV002T-70PC datasheet, AT49LV002T-70PC pinout, AT49LV002T-70PC application, or AT49LV002T-70PC equivalent, key selection considerations include its 32-pin PDIP package, boot block lockout feature (address range 3C000H–3FFFFH), sector-based erase architecture, and compatibility with standard 5V-command protocols despite 3.3V-only operation.
Technical Context
The AT49LV002T-70PC implements a sector-organized Flash architecture with one 16K-byte boot block (3C000H–3FFFFH), two 8K-byte parameter blocks (3A000H–3BFFFH and 38000H–39FFFH), and two main memory blocks (20000H–37FFFH and 00000H–1FFFFH). Its command interface uses standard microprocessor timing with CE/OE/WE control lines and supports software-triggered chip/sector erase and byte programming via six-cycle command sequences.
It features dual end-of-operation detection: DATA polling (I/O7 complement toggle) and Toggle Bit (I/O6 toggling during program/erase). Hardware protection includes VCC sense (<1.8V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulses ignored), and input state locking (OE low, CE high, or WE high disables writes).
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
AT49LV002T-70PC is supplied in a 32-lead, 0.600" wide plastic dual in-line package (PDIP), pin-compatible with industry-standard 32-pin Flash memory footprints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Data Polling & Toggle Bit | Real-time program/erase completion detection using I/O7 or I/O6 - eliminates need for fixed delay timers in host firmware |
| Sector Erase Flexibility | Independent erasure of parameter blocks (8K each) and main memory blocks (96K/128K) enables modular firmware updates without full chip erase |
| Hardware Write Protection | VCC sense, noise filtering, and control-line gating prevent spurious writes during power transients or EMI events |
| Software Product Identification | Manufacturer code (1FH) and device code (08H) readable via 3-cycle software command - enables automatic algorithm selection in universal programmers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT49LV002T-70JI | Same core Flash array and command set, but in 32-pin PLCC package with industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) | Required for extended-temperature deployments in motor drives or outdoor infrastructure | Select when board layout accommodates surface-mount PLCC and ambient operating temperature exceeds 70°C |
| SST39VF020-70-4C-NHE | 2-Mbit Flash with 70 ns access, but uses different command protocol (SST proprietary) and lacks boot block lockout override via 12V RESET | Compatible for basic code storage but not for secure bootloader implementations requiring field-recoverable lockout | Choose only if existing firmware already supports SST command set and boot block protection is not required |
Compared with AT49LV002T-70JI, the AT49LV002T-70PC offers identical functionality in through-hole PDIP packaging for prototyping and legacy designs, while SST39VF020-70-4C-NHE provides drop-in speed compatibility but requires firmware adaptation and sacrifices boot block recovery capability.

FAQ
What is the boot block address range for AT49LV002T-70PC?
The boot block for AT49LV002T-70PC occupies addresses 3C000H to 3FFFFH (16K bytes). This differs from non-T variants (e.g., AT49LV002-70PC), which locate the boot block at 00000H–03FFFH. The T-suffix denotes top-boot architecture, placing protected code at the highest memory address for natural alignment with reset vector fetches.
Does AT49LV002T-70PC support 5V-tolerant inputs?
No, AT49LV002T-70PC does not support 5V-tolerant inputs. All inputs (including CE, OE, WE, RESET, and address lines) must remain within −0.6V to VCC + 0.6V. With VCC = 3.6V max, absolute maximum input voltage is 4.2V. Applying 5V signals risks permanent damage and violates Absolute Maximum Ratings.
How is boot block lockout overridden on AT49LV002T-70PC?
Boot block lockout on AT49LV002T-70PC can be overridden by applying 12.0V ± 0.5V to the RESET pin during chip erase, sector erase, or byte programming operations. Once RESET returns to TTL levels, lockout reactivates. This feature is absent in N-suffix variants (e.g., AT49LV002N-70PC), making the T-suffix essential for field-recoverable bootloader protection.
What package type is used for AT49LV002T-70PC?
AT49LV002T-70PC uses a 32-lead, 0.600" wide plastic dual in-line package (PDIP), designated as package code "32P6" in Microchip's ordering nomenclature. This through-hole package supports breadboard prototyping, socket-based testing, and legacy PCB designs requiring DIP footprints.
Can AT49LV002T-70PC be programmed using standard 5V microcontroller write cycles?
Yes, AT49LV002T-70PC accepts standard 5V-compatible command sequences (e.g., 5555H/AAH, 2AAAH/55H) for erase and programming - despite operating exclusively from a 3.0–3.6V supply. The device interprets logic levels per its VIL/VIH thresholds (0.6V/2.0V), not voltage magnitude, enabling direct interface with 5V MCUs using appropriate level translation or open-drain pull-ups.
