GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The A49FL004 is a 4 Mbit 3.0 Volt-only Flash Memories used for BIOS storage in PCs and Notebooks. This device is designed to use a single low voltage, ranging from 3.0 Volt to 3.6 Volt, power supply to perform in-system or off-system read, erase and program operations. The device conforms to Intel® Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface specification revision 1.1 and also is compatible with Intel 82802 Firmware Hub (FWH) for most PC and Notebook applications.
