Product details
Overview
S29AL008J70TFA013 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is an 8-Mbit, 3.0 V-only boot sector Flash memory organized as 1 M × 8-bit or 512 K × 16-bit, featuring 55 ns access time, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C), and flexible sector architecture with one 16 KB, two 8 KB, one 32 KB, and fifteen 64 KB sectors. It supports in-system programming via standard 3.0 V VCC, includes Secured Silicon Sector with factory-programmable 128-word ESN, and is used in automotive engine control units for boot firmware storage.
For engineers reviewing the S29AL008J70TFA013 datasheet, S29AL008J70TFA013 pinout, S29AL008J70TFA013 application, or S29AL008J70TFA013 equivalent, key selection criteria include boot-block configuration (top/bottom), sector protection granularity, CFI compliance for host auto-configuration, erase suspend capability for real-time firmware updates, and RY/BY# hardware status signaling.
Technical Context
The S29AL008J70TFA013 implements a command-register-driven state machine for embedded erase and program algorithms, using Fowler-Nordheim tunneling for erase and hot electron injection for programming. It supports both byte (x8) and word (x16) data interfaces via DQ7–DQ0 or DQ15–DQ0 respectively, with BYTE# pin selecting mode.
Hardware features include dedicated RY/BY# for cycle completion detection, RESET# for immediate state-machine reset to read mode, and WP# for hardware lock of boot sector (16 KB). Sector group protection operates independently per sector, enabling selective locking/unlocking in-system or via programmer.
Key Specifications

| DQ0–DQ14 | Data I/O (x16) | 15-bit bidirectional data bus; DQ15/A-1 serves as LSB address in byte mode |
| DQ15/A-1 | Data I/O or Address LSB | Time-multiplexed function: DQ15 in word mode, A-1 (address bit 0) in byte mode controlled by BYTE# |
| CE#, OE#, WE# | Chip/Output/Write Enable | Independent controls eliminate bus contention; CE# enables device, OE# gates output, WE# initiates write |
| WP#, RESET#, RY/BY# | Hardware Control Signals | WP# locks boot sector; RESET# forces immediate return to read mode; RY/BY# provides active-low cycle status |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boot-sector Flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S29AL008J70TFI020 | Same die, TSOP-48 package (18.4 mm × 12.0 mm), higher 70 ns access time, industrial temp (–40°C to +85°C) | Lacks AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification; unsuitable for powertrain but fits panel-mounted HMI | Select when board layout requires through-hole or larger footprint and automotive grade not required |
| MX29LV008CTTI-70G | 8 Mbit, 3 V, 70 ns, PLCC-32 package; no Secured Silicon Sector; no CFI support; JEDEC command set only | No factory-programmable ESN; no erase suspend; limited to legacy systems without dynamic firmware update needs | Choose only for cost-sensitive, static-firmware applications where security and real-time update are not required |
Compared with S29AL008J70TFA013, the TSOP variant trades automotive qualification and speed for package compatibility, while the MX29LV008CTTI-70G omits security and suspend features - making the BGA-grade S29AL008J70TFA013 optimal for safety-critical, updatable systems.

FAQ
Is S29AL008J70TFA013 pin-compatible with earlier S29AL008D devices?
Yes - the S29AL008J70TFA013 is fully pin- and software-compatible with the S29AL008D, including identical BGA ballout and command set. It is manufactured on 110 nm process versus 200 nm for the D-series, delivering lower power and improved thermal performance while maintaining mechanical and electrical interoperability.
How does the Secured Silicon Sector protect device identity?
The Secured Silicon Sector contains a factory-programmable 128-word region with an 8-word (16-byte) random Electronic Serial Number. Once locked via command sequence, it becomes permanently read-only and immune to erase - providing cryptographically verifiable hardware identity for secure boot and anti-cloning.
What is the functional difference between WP# and sector protection commands?
WP# is a hardware-level signal that permanently protects the boot sector (16 KB) when pulled low, independent of command execution. Sector protection commands provide software-controlled locking/unlocking of any sector, including temporary unprotect for in-field updates - offering layered, flexible security.
Can S29AL008J70TFA013 operate in byte mode on a 16-bit bus?
Yes - the BYTE# pin selects interface width: when asserted low, the device operates in x8 mode with DQ7–DQ0 active and DQ15/A-1 repurposed as address bit A-1. This allows seamless integration into 16-bit microcontroller buses without external data-width translation logic.
