Product details
Overview
S29AL016J70TFN013 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 16 Mbit (2M × 8-bit / 1M × 16-bit), 3.0 V-only boot sector Flash memory with 55 ns access time, AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C) qualification, and flexible sector architecture including one 16 KB, two 8 KB, one 32 KB, and thirty-one 64 KB sectors. It operates across 2.7–3.6 V, supports in-system programming without high-voltage VPP, and is used for automotive boot code storage and industrial firmware retention.
For engineers reviewing the S29AL016J70TFN013 datasheet, S29AL016J70TFN013 pinout, S29AL016J70TFN013 application, or S29AL016J70TFN013 equivalent, key selection criteria include boot-sector protection granularity, CFI compliance for host auto-configuration, erase suspend/resume capability for real-time firmware updates, and dual-mode (x8/x16) data bus support in TSOP and BGA packages.
Technical Context
The S29AL016J70TFN013 implements a command-register-controlled state machine that executes embedded program/erase algorithms with automatic pulse-width timing and margin verification. Its architecture integrates Fowler-Nordheim tunneling for erase and hot-electron injection for program operations.
Hardware features include dedicated RY/BY# for cycle completion detection, RESET# for immediate state-machine reset to read mode, and WP# for hardware-level boot-sector lock (top/bottom configurable). Sector group protection supports both permanent and temporary unprotect modes, enabling secure field firmware updates.

FAQ
What is the function of the BYTE# pin on S29AL016J70TFN013?
The BYTE# pin selects between x8 and x16 data bus configurations: when pulled low (VIL), DQ0–DQ7 are active for byte-wide operation; when pulled high (VIH), DQ0–DQ15 operate as a 16-bit word bus. This pin must be held static during device operation and cannot be toggled mid-access.
Does S29AL016J70TFN013 support hardware-based sector locking independent of software commands?
Yes - the WP# pin provides hardware-level protection for the boot sector (16 KB). When WP# is driven low, the first or last sector (depending on top/bottom configuration) is locked against program/erase operations regardless of command execution, offering fail-safe protection during power-up or firmware corruption events.
How does the Secured Silicon Sector differ from standard Flash sectors?
The Secured Silicon Sector is a dedicated 128-word (256-byte) region containing an 8-word electronic serial number. It can be permanently locked at factory or by customer via command sequence, preventing further writes. Unlike standard sectors, it is not erasable and serves exclusively for device identification and anti-counterfeiting.
Can S29AL016J70TFN013 be used in systems requiring JEDEC-standard Flash compatibility?
Yes - the device is fully compliant with the JEDEC Standard JESD21-C for single-power-supply Flash memories. It matches JEDEC pinouts and command sets, ensuring drop-in compatibility with existing host controllers designed for industry-standard 3 V Flash devices.
