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 devic e
offers access times to 200 ns with power dissipation of just 54 mW over the commercial temperature range. When the device is deselected, the CMOS standby curr ent is
less than 20 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. Reprog ramming the AT29LV020 is performed
on a sector basis; 256-bytes of data are loaded into the
device and then simultaneously programmed.
During a reprogram cycle, the address locations and 256bytes of data are captured at microprocessor speed and
internally latched, freeing the address and data bus for

SOFTWARE DATA PROTECTION PROGRAMMING:
The AT29LV020 has 1024 individual sectors, each 256bytes. Using the software data protection feature, byte
loads are used to enter the 256-bytes of a sector to be
programmed. The AT29LV020 can only be programmed
or reprogrammed using the software data protection feature. The device is programmed on a sector basis. If a byte
of data within the sector is to be changed, data for the entire 256-byte sector must be loaded into the device. The
AT29LV020 automatically does a sector erase prior to
loading the data into the sector. An erase command is not
required.
Software data protection protects the devic e from inadvertent programming. A series of three program commands
to specific addresses with specific data must be presented
to the device before programming may occur. The same
three program commands must begin each program operation. All software program commands must obey the
sector program timing specifications. Power transitions
will not reset the software data protection feature, however
the softw are feature will guard against i nadvertent program cycles during power transitions.
Any attempt to write to the device without the 3-byte command sequence will start the internal write timers. No data

The 256-bytes of data must be loaded into each sector.
Any byte that is not loaded during the programming of its
sector will be erased to read FFH. Once the bytes of a
sector are loaded into the device, they are simultaneously
programmed during the internal programming period. After the first data byte has been loaded into the devic e, successive bytes are entered in the same manner. Each new
byte to be programmed must have its high to low trans ition
on
WE (or CE) of the preceding byte. If a high to low transition
is not detected within 150 µs of the last low to high transition, the load period will end and the internal programming
period will start. A8 to A17 specify the sector addr ess. The
sector address must be valid during each high to low transition of

INPUT LEVELS: While operating with a 3.3V ±10%
power supply, the address inputs and control inputs (
CE and WE) may be driven from 0 to 5.5V without adversely affecting the operation of the device. The I/O lines
can be driven from 0 to 3.6V.
PRODUCT IDE NTIFICATION: The product identification mode identifies the device and manufacturer as Atmel. It may be accessed by hardware or software operation. The hardware operation mode can be us ed by an external programmer to identify the correct programming algorithm for the Atmel product. In addition, users may wish
to use the software product identification mode to identify
the part (i.e. using the device code), and have the system
software use the appropriate sector size for program operations. In th is manner, the user can have a common
board design for 256K to 4-megabit densities and, with
each density’s sector size in a memory map, have the system software apply the appropriate sector size.
For details, see Operating Modes (for hardware operation)
or Software Product Identification. The manufacturer and
device code is the same for both modes.
DATA POLLING: The AT29LV020 features DATA polling to indicate the end of a program cycle. During a program cycle an attempted read of the last byte loaded will
result in the complement of the loaded data on I/O7. Once
the program cycle has been completed, true data is valid

on all outputs and the next cycle may begin. DATA polling
may begin at any time during the program cycle.
TOGGLE BIT: In addition to
AT29LV020 provides another method for determining the
end of a program or erase cycle. During a program or
erase operation, successive attempts to read data from
the device will result in I/O6 toggling between one and
zero. Once the program cycle has completed, I/O6 will
stop toggling and valid data will be read. Examining the
toggle bit may begin at any time during a program cycle.
OPTIONAL CHIP ERASE MODE: The entire device
can be erased by using a 6-byte software code. Please
see Software Chip Erase application note for details.
BOOT BLOCK PROGRAMMING LOCKOUT: The
AT29LV020 has two designated memory blocks that have
a programming lockout feature. This feature prevents programming of data in the designated block once the feature
has been enabled. Each of these blocks consists of 8K
bytes; the programming lockout feature can be set independently for either block. While the lockout feature does
not have to be activated, it can be activated for either or
both blocks.
These two 8K memory sections are referred to as
. Secure code which will bring up a system can be
blocks
contained in a boot block. The AT29LV020 blocks are located in the first 8K bytes of memory and the last 8K bytes
of memory. The boot block programming lockout feature
can therefore support systems that boot from the lower
addresses of memory or the higher addresses. Once the
programming lockout feature has been activated, the data
in that block can no longer be erased or programmed;
data in other memory locations can st ill be changed
through the regular programming methods. To activate the
lockout feature, a series of seven program commands to
specific addresses with specific data must be performed.
Please see Boot Block Lockout Feature Enable Algorithm.
If the boot block lockout feature has been activated on
either block, the chip erase function will be disabled.
