About this manual

The AT49BV040B is a 4‑megabit (512K × 8) in‑system reprogrammable flash memory that operates from a single 2.7 V to 5.5 V supply. It offers fast read access times of 70 ns (2.7 V‑3.6 V) and 55 ns (4.5 V‑5.5 V), low active current (20 mA) and ultra‑low standby currents (25 pA‑30 pA). The device is organized into a 16 KB boot sector, two 8 KB parameter sectors, and eight main memory sectors ranging from 32 KB to 64 KB.

The datasheet describes the pinout for 32‑lead PLCC, VSOP and TSOP packages, the block diagram of the memory array, and detailed command sequences for read, chip erase, sector erase, byte programming, and boot‑sector lockout. It also explains status monitoring via DATA polling, toggle‑bit detection, and the erase/program status bit, as well as absolute maximum ratings and mechanical dimensions.
