FINAL
Am27C256
256 Kilobit (32 K x 8-Bit) CMOS EPROM
DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS
■ Fast access time
— Speed options as fast as 45 ns
■ Low power consumption
— 20 µA typical CMOS standby current
■ JEDEC-approved pinout
■ Single +5 V power supply
■ ±10% power supply tolerance standard
■ 100% Flashrite™ programming
— Typical programming time of 4 seconds
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am27C256 is a 256-Kbit, ultraviolet erasable programmable read-only memory. It is organized as 32K
words by 8 bits per word, operates from a single +5 V
supply, has a static standby mode, and features fast
single address location programming. Products are
available in windowed ceramic DIP packages, as well
as plastic one time programmable (OTP) PDIP and
PLCC packages.
Data can be typically accessed in less than 55 ns, allowing high-p erformance m icroproces sors to ope rate
without any WAIT states. The device offers separate
Output Enable (OE#) and Chip Enable (CE#) controls,
■ Latch-up protected to 100 mA from –1 V to
+ 1 V
V
CC
■ High noise immunity
■ Versatile features for simple interfacing
— Both CMOS and TTL input/output compatibility
— Two line control functions
■ Standard 28-pin DIP, PDIP, and 32-pin PLCC
packages
thus eliminating bus contention in a mul tiple bus microprocessor system.
AMD’s CMOS process technology provides high
speed, low power, and high noise immunity. Typical
power consumption is only 80 mW in active mode, and
100 µW in standby mode.
All signals are TTL levels, including programming signals. Bit locations may be programmed singly, in
blocks, or at random. The device supports AMD’s
Flashrite programming alg orithm (100 µs pulses), resulting in a typical programming time of 4 seconds.
