Description

The AT29LV020 is a 3-volt-only in-system Flash programmable and erasable read only memory (PEROM). Its 2 megabits of memory is organized as 262,144 bytes by 8 bits. Manufactured with Atmel’s advanced nonvolatile CMOS technology, the device offers access times to 100 ns with power dissipation of just 54 mW over the industrial temperature range. When the device is deselected, the CMOS standby current is less than 50 µA. The device endurance is such that any sector can typically be written to in excess of 10,000 times.

To allow for simple in-system reprogrammability, the AT29LV020 does not require high input voltages for programming. Five-volt-only commands determine the operation of the device. Reading data out of the device is similar to reading from an EPROM. Reprogramming the AT29LV020 is performed on a sector basis; 256 bytes of data are loaded into the device and then simultaneously programmed.
