Product details
Overview
SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T from Microchip Technology is a 4 Mbit (256K × 16) Multi-Purpose Flash memory IC using SuperFlash technology, operating from 1.65–1.95 V, with 70 ns read access time, 100,000 program/erase cycles endurance, and >100-year data retention. It serves as nonvolatile program/data storage in embedded controllers requiring low-voltage, sector/block-erasable flash.
For engineers reviewing the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T datasheet, SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T pinout, SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T application, or SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T equivalent, key selection criteria include JEDEC-compliant x16 asynchronous interface, uniform 2 KWord sector / 32 KWord block erase architecture, software data protection (SDP), CFI support, and 48-ball WFBGA/XFLGA/TFBGA packaging options.
Technical Context
The SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T implements a split-gate SuperFlash cell with thick-oxide tunneling injector for enhanced reliability and fixed erase/program timing independent of cycle count. It supports standard microprocessor bus interfacing via CE#, OE#, and WE# control signals with latched address/data paths.
Operation modes include Read, Word-Program, Sector-Erase, Block-Erase, Chip-Erase, Software ID Entry, and CFI Query-all initiated via JEDEC-standard command sequences written to specific address locations (e.g., 5555H/2AAAH). End-of-write detection uses DQ7 Data# Polling and DQ6 Toggle Bit status reporting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Organization | 256K × 16 (4 Mbit total); enables 16-bit parallel data transfers aligned with common microcontroller external memory buses. |
| Read Access Time | 70 ns; ensures compatibility with high-speed 14 MHz+ system clocks without wait states in typical embedded host interfaces. |
| Supply Voltage | 1.65–1.95 V; supports single-supply operation in modern low-power SoC and battery-backed systems without level-shifting. |
| Endurance | 100,000 cycles (typical); guarantees reliable field-updatable firmware or configuration storage over extended product lifetimes. |
| Data Retention | >100 years; eliminates need for periodic refresh or backup power in industrial and automotive applications. |
| Erase Architecture | Uniform 2 KWord sectors & 32 KWord blocks; allows granular firmware patching and secure data wiping without full-chip erasure. |
| Write Detection | DQ7 Data# Polling & DQ6 Toggle Bit; enables efficient polling-based write completion handling without dedicated interrupt lines. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-ball WFBGA (4 mm × 6 mm), RoHS-compliant, suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable and industrial modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A17 | Address Inputs | A0–A16 select 256K words; A17 (AMS) used for sector/block address decoding during erase operations. |
| DQ0–DQ15 | Data I/O | 16-bit bidirectional data bus; tri-stated when CE# or OE# is high; latched internally during Program/Erase. |
| CE# | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; device enters standby mode (5 µA) when high; required low for all non-read operations. |
| OE# | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; controls data bus drive during Read; must be low with CE# for valid output. |
| WE# | Write Enable | Active-low control for Program/Erase command latching; rising edge initiates internal timing sequences. |
| VDD | Power Supply | 1.65–1.95 V supply; powers core logic and SuperFlash array; internal charge pump generates programming voltage. |
| VSS | Ground | Reference ground for all I/O and core circuitry; two dedicated balls ensure low-impedance return path. |
| NC | No Connection | Unbonded pins (e.g., A11, A13, DQ10 in WFBGA layout); must remain unconnected per design. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SuperFlash Technology | Split-gate cell with thick-oxide tunneling injector delivers fixed 28 µs Word-Program and 36 ms Sector/Block-Erase times across full lifetime. |
| JEDEC x16 Pinout Compliance | Direct drop-in replacement for industry-standard 4 Mbit x16 flash devices without PCB redesign or signal mapping changes. |
| Software Data Protection (SDP) | Three-byte (Program) and six-byte (Erase) command sequences prevent accidental writes during power transitions or firmware bugs. |
| Common Flash Interface (CFI) | Supports both SST-specific and general CFI Query modes for automatic device identification and parameter discovery in bootloader code. |
| Low-Power Operation | 5 mA active current (5 MHz) and 5 µA standby current enable energy-efficient operation in always-on or battery-powered systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SST39VF400A-70-4C-B3KE-T | Lower voltage range (2.7–3.6 V); 70 ns access; same density and pinout but incompatible supply domain. | Requires 3.3 V system rail; not suitable for 1.8 V platforms where SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T is specified. | Select only if host system operates at 3.3 V and industrial temperature range is not required. |
| MX29LV400CTTI-70G | 3.3 V operation; 70 ns access; 48-pin TSOP package; lacks CFI support and SuperFlash timing consistency. | TSOP footprint requires PCB redesign; no built-in CFI simplifies driver development but limits auto-detection capability. | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-upgradable designs where package compatibility with legacy TSOP layouts is critical. |
Compared with SST39VF400A-70-4C-B3KE-T and MX29LV400CTTI-70G, the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T uniquely supports 1.65–1.95 V operation with guaranteed industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), fixed-program timing, and dual-mode CFI-making it optimal for next-generation low-power, upgradable embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T?
The SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T operates from 1.65 V to 1.95 V for both read and write functions. This single-supply range enables direct integration with 1.8 V system rails without level shifters. The device is rated for industrial temperature operation (-40°C to +85°C), and its internal charge pump generates necessary programming voltages-no external VPP supply is required. All DC and AC specifications in the datasheet are defined within this voltage window.
Does the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T support JEDEC-standard command sets?
Yes, the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T fully complies with JEDEC standard pinouts and command sets for x16 flash memories. It supports standard operations-including Word-Program, Sector-Erase, Block-Erase, and Chip-Erase-via documented six-byte command sequences (e.g., 5555H/2AAAH/5555H followed by command byte). Software Data Protection (SDP) and Common Flash Interface (CFI) modes also adhere to JEDEC JESD68 and JEP137B specifications.
What package type is used for the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T?
The SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T is packaged in a 48-ball WFBGA (4 mm × 6 mm) with 0.5 mm pitch, designated by the "B3KE-T" suffix. This micro-package variant offers superior thermal and electrical performance over TSOP alternatives and is compatible with standard surface-mount assembly processes. Pin assignments match JEDEC-standard x16 flash layouts, enabling drop-in use in space-constrained industrial and portable designs.
How does the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T indicate completion of a Program or Erase operation?
The SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T provides two hardware-supported status detection methods: Data# Polling on DQ7 and Toggle Bit on DQ6. After initiating a Word-Program (4th WE# pulse) or Erase (6th WE# pulse), the host reads DQ7 to detect true data (vs. complement) or monitors DQ6 for cessation of toggling. Both methods are valid during internal operations and require no additional hardware-enabling efficient polling-based firmware control without interrupts.
Is the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T suitable for automotive applications?
The SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T is qualified for industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and meets RoHS compliance, but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. While widely used in automotive infotainment and body control modules where qualification is customer-defined, formal automotive deployment requires validation per AEC-Q100 stress tests. For production automotive ECUs, consult Microchip's AEC-Q100-qualified variants such as the SST39WF400B-70-4I-B3KE-T's automotive-grade counterparts.
