PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The SST49LF040 flash memory devices are designed to interface with the LPC bus for PC and Internet Appliance application in compliance with Intel Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface Specification 1.0. Two interface modes are supported by the SST49LF040: LPC mode for In-System operation and Parallel Programming (PP) mode to interface with programmer equipment.
