Product details
Overview
SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T from Microchip Technology is a 1 Mbit (128K × 8) CMOS Multi-Purpose Flash memory IC with single 4.5–5.5V supply operation, 55 ns read access time, and JEDEC-standard x8 parallel interface. It features sector-erase capability (4 KB uniform sectors), 100,000 program/erase endurance cycles, and >100 years data retention - deployed in embedded firmware storage for industrial controllers and legacy BIOS modules.
For engineers reviewing the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T datasheet, SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T pinout, SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T application, or SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, PLCC-32 pin mapping, SuperFlash reliability metrics, software data protection command sequences, and direct alternatives for legacy system maintenance and BOM continuity planning.
Technical Context
The SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T implements SST's proprietary SuperFlash split-gate cell architecture with thick-oxide tunneling injector, enabling fixed erase/program times independent of cycle count. It supports standard microprocessor bus interfacing via CE#, OE#, and WE# control lines, with latched address/data inputs and tri-state outputs.
Write operations require a six-byte software data protection (SDP) sequence for sector or chip erase, and a three-byte sequence for byte-programming. End-of-write detection uses DQ7 (Data# Polling) or DQ6 (Toggle Bit), both valid after the fourth (program) or sixth (erase) WE#/CE# pulse edge - eliminating need for external timing circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1 Mbit (128K × 8) - supports full firmware image storage for 8-bit/16-bit microcontrollers without external expansion. |
| Read Access Time | 55 ns - enables direct execution from flash (XIP) in systems with ≤18 MHz bus clocks. |
| Supply Voltage | 4.5–5.5 V - compatible with legacy 5 V TTL logic families and eliminates need for level-shifting circuitry. |
| Endurance | 100,000 program/erase cycles - sufficient for field-upgradable firmware with infrequent updates over 10+ year product life. |
| Data Retention | >100 years at 25°C - ensures long-term integrity of boot code and calibration tables in unpowered storage. |
| Sector Size | 4 KB uniform sectors - allows granular firmware patching without erasing entire device, reducing update downtime. |
| Active Current | 10 mA typical at 14 MHz - minimizes power impact during active read operations in energy-constrained industrial nodes. |
| Standby Current | 30 µA typical - supports low-power sleep modes in battery-backed or always-on monitoring systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 32-lead Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), RoHS-compliant, 1.78 mm body height, 11.43 mm × 13.97 mm footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 128K × 8 decoding; A16 is most significant bit for SST39SF010A. |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Data Input/Output | 8-bit bidirectional data bus with internal latching during writes; high-impedance when CE# or OE# is high. |
| CE# | Chip Enable | Active-low device select; places device in standby (30 µA) when high, enabling multi-chip memory decoding. |
| OE# | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; controls data bus visibility without affecting internal state or power mode. |
| WE# | Write Enable | Active-low write control; initiates byte-program, sector-erase, or chip-erase upon SDP command sequence completion. |
| VDD | Power Supply | 4.5–5.5 V core supply; includes on-chip VPP generation - no external high-voltage programming supply required. |
| VSS | Ground | Reference return path for all I/O and core logic; requires low-inductance connection to minimize noise during erase/write transitions. |
| NC | No Connection | Pins 24 and 31 are unconnected - must be left floating or tied to ground per PCB layout best practices. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SuperFlash Technology | Split-gate cell with thick-oxide tunneling injector enables fixed 18 ms sector-erase and 14 µs byte-program times across full lifetime - no software de-rating needed. |
| Software Data Protection | JEDEC-standard three-byte (program) or six-byte (erase) command sequences prevent accidental writes during power-up/down or EMI events. |
| TTL I/O Compatibility | Direct interface with 5 V microcontrollers and FPGAs - no level shifters required; VIH = 2.0 V, VOL = 0.4 V at 2.1 mA load. |
| End-of-Write Detection | DQ6 Toggle Bit and DQ7 Data# Polling provide deterministic, software-driven status reporting - eliminates need for external timers or busy-wait loops. |
| Hardware Write Inhibit | Automatic lockout when VDD < 2.5 V or WE#/CE#/OE# violate setup/hold timing - prevents corruption during brown-out conditions. |
| Uniform Sector Architecture | 32 × 4 KB sectors enable selective firmware updates - critical for field-deployed devices where full reflash risks bricking. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM29LV010B-55EI | 55 ns access, 1 Mbit (128K × 8), 3.0 V core (3.0–3.6 V), requires 12 V VPP for programming | Requires external high-voltage generator; incompatible with 5 V-only systems | Select only if migrating to 3 V systems with existing AM29LV infrastructure and VPP support. |
| MX29LV160CBTI-70G | 70 ns access, 16 Mbit (2M × 8), 3.0 V core, top/bottom boot-block architecture | Higher density and different block layout; not drop-in for 1 Mbit footprint or timing-critical 55 ns paths | Consider for new designs needing larger capacity and 3 V operation - requires PCB and firmware redesign. |
Compared with AM29LV010B-55EI and MX29LV160CBTI-70G, the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T uniquely combines 5 V operation, internal VPP generation, 55 ns speed, and proven SuperFlash reliability - making it the only direct replacement for legacy 5 V systems requiring zero hardware changes and guaranteed long-term availability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T?
The SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T is rated for industrial temperature operation from -40°C to +85°C, as confirmed in Table 5 of the official Microchip datasheet DS20005022C. This makes SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T suitable for deployment in factory automation, outdoor telecom equipment, and medical devices exposed to wide ambient variations.
Does the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T require an external high-voltage supply for programming?
No, the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T integrates internal VPP generation and operates entirely from a single 4.5–5.5 V supply for both read and write functions. This eliminates the need for external 12 V programming voltages - a key differentiator from older AMD/Spansion flash devices. The SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T achieves this via SST's SuperFlash technology.
How many address lines does the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T use, and what is the highest address bit?
The SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T uses 17 address lines (A0–A16) to decode its 128K × 8 organization. A16 is the most significant address bit, as explicitly defined in Table 1 (footnote 1) and Figures 2–4 of the datasheet. This distinguishes it from the SST39SF020A (A17) and SST39SF040 (A18).
What command sequence is required to perform a byte-program operation on the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T?
A three-byte software data protection sequence is mandatory: write 0xAA to address 0x5555, then 0x55 to address 0x2AAA, then 0xA0 to address 0x5555 - followed by the target address and data byte. This sequence must complete before the internal 14 µs byte-program cycle begins. All commands are documented in Table 4 of the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T datasheet.
Is the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T RoHS compliant?
Yes, the SST39SF010A-45-4I-NHE-T is RoHS compliant, as stated in the "Features" section of the official Microchip datasheet DS20005022C. The "-NHE-T" suffix denotes lead-free (Pb-free), halogen-free, and RoHS-compliant packaging in 32-lead PLCC format.
