Product details
Overview
AT49LV002T-70VI from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is a 2-Mbit (256K × 8) single-supply 3.0–3.6V in-system reprogrammable Flash memory IC with 70 ns read access time, sector-based architecture including a 16K-byte boot block (address range 3C000H–3FFFFH), and hardware data protection for embedded firmware storage in industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the AT49LV002T-70VI datasheet, AT49LV002T-70VI pinout, AT49LV002T-70VI application, or AT49LV002T-70VI equivalent, this page delivers verified timing, sector layout, erase/program cycle behavior, DC/AC electrical specs, and industrial-grade (-40°C to +85°C) operation under stable VCC.
Technical Context
The AT49LV002T-70VI implements a command-register-based programming model using standard microprocessor bus cycles (CE/OE/WE control), supports DATA polling and toggle-bit status detection for program/erase completion, and features internal erase timing without external clocks. Its sector architecture separates boot code (16K), parameter blocks (2 × 8K), and main memory (96K + 128K).
Boot block lockout is enabled via a six-cycle command sequence; once activated, reprogramming requires 12V on RESET - a feature retained in the T-suffix variant but omitted in N-suffix versions. The device operates in standard EPROM-compatible read mode and uses VCC sense, noise filtering, and control-line inhibition for hardware write protection.
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 space-constrained industrial MCU systems. |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns max - enables direct execution from flash (XIP) in 5 MHz bus systems without wait states. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3V logic rails and battery-backed industrial power domains. |
| Erase Cycle Time | 10 seconds typical for full chip erase - deterministic timing simplifies firmware update state-machine design. |
| Byte Programming Time | 30 µs typical - supports real-time field updates of small configuration parameters without system interruption. |
| Endurance | 10,000 write/erase cycles - validated for frequent firmware patching in remote monitoring devices. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial automation, motor drives, and outdoor metering applications. |
Pinout & Package
AT49LV002T-70VI is supplied in a 32-lead VSOP (8 × 14 mm) package per ordering code suffix "V". Pin functions are identical across PLCC, PDIP, TSOP, and VSOP variants.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A17 | Address Inputs | 18-bit address bus supporting full 256K-word addressing; A0–A17 map directly to memory location bits. |
| I/O0–I/O7 | Bi-directional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel interface; latched on rising edge of CE/WE during programming, high-Z when deselected. |
| 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; initiates command loading, byte programming, and sector erase on falling/rising edges. |
| RESET | Reset Input | Active-low reset; halts ongoing operations and forces high-Z outputs; 12V override enables boot block reprogramming. |
| VCC | Power Supply | 3.0–3.6V primary supply; internal regulation ensures stable core voltage across rail variation. |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power ground reference for all I/O and internal logic; decoupling required per datasheet layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Boot Block Lockout with 12V Override | Prevents accidental overwrite of critical bootloader code; 12V on RESET allows secure field recovery without hardware redesign. |
| Sector-Erasable Architecture | Independent erasure of two 8K parameter blocks and two main memory blocks (96K/128K) enables modular firmware updates without full chip erase. |
| DATA Polling & Toggle Bit Status | Eliminates need for fixed delay timers during programming/erasing - reduces firmware overhead and improves update reliability. |
| Hardware Write Protection | VCC sense (<1.8V inhibits programming), noise filtering (<15 ns pulses ignored), and control-line gating (OE low/CE high/WE high blocks writes) prevent spurious writes. |
| CMOS Standby Current | 50 µA max at VCC = 3.6V - extends battery life in always-on industrial sensors and RTUs. |

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, 2 Mbit, 70 ns, 32-pin TSOP; lacks 12V RESET override for boot block unlock. | No hardware-assisted boot block recovery - requires full chip erase if lockout is enabled. | Select when boot block lockout is never enabled or when external high-voltage circuitry is impractical. |
| MX29LV020TC-70G | 3.0–3.6V, 2 Mbit, 70 ns, 32-pin TSOP; includes boot block protection but no documented 12V override path. | Boot block protection is permanent once enabled - no field recovery mechanism defined in datasheet. | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where boot code is truly static and field reprogramming is unnecessary. |
Compared with SST39VF020-70-4C-NHE and MX29LV020TC-70G, the AT49LV002T-70VI uniquely provides 12V-enabled boot block reprogramming - a critical differentiator for industrial field-serviceability and long-term firmware maintainability.

FAQ
What is the boot block address range for AT49LV002T-70VI?
The boot block for AT49LV002T-70VI occupies addresses 3C000H to 3FFFFH (16K bytes), distinct from the base AT49LV002(N) which uses 00000H–03FFFH. This relocated boot sector avoids conflict with main application code in larger memory maps and is confirmed in the AT49BV/LV002(N)(T) datasheet revision 0982D, page 4 and 6.
Does AT49LV002T-70VI support 12V reset override for boot block programming?
Yes, AT49LV002T-70VI supports 12V ± 0.5V applied to the RESET pin to override boot block lockout during chip erase, sector erase, or byte programming - a feature explicitly retained in T-suffix variants per datasheet section "Boot Block Programming Lockout Override" (page 4). This capability is absent in N-suffix parts.
What is the maximum active current consumption of AT49LV002T-70VI?
The AT49LV002T-70VI draws a maximum of 25 mA active current (ICC) at f = 5 MHz and IOUT = 0 mA, as specified in the DC Characteristics table (page 7). This value is consistent across all AT49LV002(N)(T)-70 variants and reflects worst-case dynamic power during sustained read operations.
Can AT49LV002T-70VI be used in place of AT49LV002-70VI?
No - AT49LV002T-70VI and AT49LV002-70VI differ in boot block location (3C000H–3FFFFH vs. 00000H–03FFFH) and RESET functionality. The T-suffix denotes relocated boot sector and retained 12V override; substituting without firmware address remapping and RESET circuit review risks boot failure or unrecoverable lockout.
What packaging options are available for AT49LV002T-70VI?
AT49LV002T-70VI is offered exclusively in the 32-lead VSOP (8 × 14 mm) package, identified by the "V" suffix in the ordering code. Other packages (PLCC "J", PDIP "P6", TSOP "T") exist for the AT49LV002T family but not for the -70VI variant - confirmed in the AT49LV002T Ordering Information table (page 19).
