Product details
Overview
SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T from Microchip Technology is a 32 Mbit (2M × 16) Multi-Purpose Flash Plus memory IC designed for nonvolatile program, configuration, and data storage in embedded systems. It operates from a single 2.7–3.6 V supply, delivers 70 ns read access time, supports bottom-block hardware write protection (000000H–007FFFH), and features 100,000-program/erase cycles with >100 years data retention.
For engineers reviewing the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T datasheet, SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T pinout, SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T application, or SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T equivalent, this page provides verified pin assignments, JEDEC-compliant x16 interface timing, bottom-boot block protection mapping, and validated alternatives for industrial firmware storage designs requiring reliable, low-power flash with erase-suspend capability.
Technical Context
The SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T implements SST's SuperFlash technology with split-gate cells and thick-oxide tunneling injectors, enabling fixed 7 µs word-program and 18 ms sector/block-erase times independent of cycle count. Its architecture supports uniform 2 KWord sectors (1024 total) and 32 KWord blocks (64 total), with on-chip command logic for sector-, block-, and chip-erase operations.
It integrates hardware reset (RST#), write protect (WP#) for bottom 32 KWord boot block, and dual status detection via DQ7 (Data# Polling) and DQ6/DQ2 (Toggle Bits). The device conforms to JEDEC standard x16 flash pinouts and supports CFI Query mode for automatic system identification and parameter discovery.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 32 Mbit (2,097,152 × 16-bit words); enables full firmware image storage for mid-complexity microcontrollers. |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns max; ensures compatibility with 14 MHz bus timing without wait states in legacy 8051/ARM7-based systems. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7–3.6 V single supply; eliminates need for external voltage translators in 3.3 V embedded platforms. |
| Endurance | 100,000 program/erase cycles (typical); supports field-updatable firmware with ≥10-year service life at 27 updates/year. |
| Data Retention | >100 years at +85°C; guarantees long-term reliability in industrial temperature-grade applications. |
| Block Protection | Hardware bottom-block protection (000000H–007FFFH); safeguards bootloader code from accidental overwrite during field updates. |
| Erase-Suspend | Supported via B0H command; allows real-time interrupt-driven reads from unprotected sectors during background erase. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-lead TSOP (12 mm × 20 mm), RoHS-compliant, industrial temperature grade (–40°C to +85°C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A20 | Address Inputs | A0–A19 select 2M-word address space; A20 (AMS) used for sector/block selection during erase commands. |
| DQ0–DQ15 | Data I/O | 16-bit bidirectional bus; latched internally during writes; tri-stated when CE# or OE# high. |
| CE# | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; must be low to enable read/write operations; controls address/data latch timing. |
| OE# | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; determines data validity on DQ bus during read cycles. |
| WE# | Write Enable | Active-low control for write latching; rising edge initiates internal program/erase timing sequences. |
| WP# | Write Protect | Active-low hardware lock for bottom 32 KWord boot block (000000H–007FFFH); prevents erase/program if grounded. |
| RST# | Reset | Active-low hardware reset; forces return to read mode and aborts in-progress erase/program operations. |
| VDD / VSS | Power / Ground | Single 2.7–3.6 V supply; 4 µA standby current enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SST39VF3202B-70-4I-B3KE-T | Top-block hardware protection (1F8000H–1FFFFFH) instead of bottom-block; identical timing, density, and package. | Used where bootloader resides in top memory region; requires PCB-level WP# routing change to match protection zone. | Select only if top-boot architecture aligns with system memory map and bootloader location. |
| MX29LV320ETTI-70G | 32 Mbit x16, 70 ns access, but uses different command set (no CFI support) and lacks erase-suspend/resume capability. | Suitable for cost-sensitive designs without need for background erase interruption; requires custom driver adaptation. | Choose when CFI auto-detection is unnecessary and erase-suspend is not required for real-time system responsiveness. |
Compared with SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T, the SST39VF3202B variant offers identical performance but inverted block protection orientation-requiring memory map alignment-while the MX29LV320ETTI lacks erase-suspend and CFI, increasing firmware development effort for feature parity.

FAQ
What is the exact memory organization of the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T?
The SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T is organized as 2,097,152 words × 16 bits (32 Mbit total), with uniform 2 KWord sectors (1024 sectors) and 32 KWord blocks (64 blocks). Its bottom 32 KWord (000000H–007FFFH) is hardware-protected via the WP# pin, distinguishing it from the top-protected SST39VF3202B variant.
Does the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T support CFI Query mode, and how is it accessed?
Yes, the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T supports JEDEC-standard Common Flash Interface (CFI) Query mode. It is entered by writing 98H to address 555H using the three-byte sequence (555H/AAH → 2AAH/55H → 555H/98H) or the one-byte sequence (55H/98H). CFI data is then readable at addresses defined in Tables 7–9 of the datasheet.
How does hardware write protection work on the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T?
Hardware write protection on the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T is implemented via the WP# pin, which locks the bottom 32 KWord boot block (000000H–007FFFH) against erase and program operations when held low. If WP# is left floating, an internal pull-up holds it high, disabling protection. This differs from the SST39VF3202B, which protects the top block.
What are the valid methods to detect completion of a program or erase operation on the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T?
The SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T provides two validated end-of-write detection methods: Data# Polling (DQ7 toggles until completion, then returns true data) and Toggle Bits (DQ6 toggles during operation, stops when complete). For Security ID programming, only Toggle Bits (DQ6/DQ2) should be used-not Data# Polling-as specified in the datasheet.
Is the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T compatible with standard x16 flash memory interfaces?
Yes, the SST39VF3201B-70-4I-B3KE-T conforms fully to JEDEC standard pin assignments for x16 asynchronous flash memories. Its 48-lead TSOP package matches industry-standard footprints, and its command set-including Word-Program, Sector-Erase, and Chip-Erase-is compatible with common flash controller drivers used in ARM, MIPS, and PowerPC-based systems.
