The Am27C64 is a 64-Kbit, ultraviolet erasable programmable read-only memory. It is organized as 8K
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 45 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,

■ High noise immunity
■ Versatile features for simple interfacing
— B oth CMOS and TTL input/output compatibility
— Two line control functions
■ Standard 28-pin DIP, PDIP, and 32-pin PLCC

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 suppor ts AMD’s
Flashrite programming alg orithm (100 µs pulses), resulting in a typical programming time of 1 second.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Device Erasure
In order to clear all locations of their programmed contents, the device m ust be exp osed to an ultra violet light
source. A dosage of 15 W seconds/cm
2
is required to
completely erase the device. This dosage can be ob-
tained by exposure to an ultraviolet lamp—wavelength
of 2537 Å—with intensity of 12,000 µW/cm
2
for 15 to 20
minutes. The device shoul d be directly under and about
one inch from the source, and all filters should be removed from the UV light source prior to erasure.
Note that all UV erasable devices will erase with light
sources having wav elengths shorter than 4000 Å, such
as fluorescent light and sunlight. Although the erasure
process happens over a much longer time period, exposure to any light source should be prevented fo r
maximum system reliability. Simply cover the package
window with an opaque label or substance.
Device Programming
Upon delivery, or after each er asure, the devic e has all
of its bits in the “ONE”, or HIGH state. “ZEROs” are
loaded into the device through the programming procedure.
The device enters the programming mode when 12.75
V ± 0.25 V is applied to the V
PGM# are at V
.
IL
pin, and CE# and
PP
For program ming, the data to be programmed is applied 8 bits in parallel to the data pins.
The flowchart in the Programming section of the
EPROM Products Data Book (Section 5, Figure 5-1)
shows AMD’s Flashrite algorithm. The F lashrite algorithm reduces programming time by using a 100 µs programming pulse and by giving each address only as
many pulses to reliably program the data. After each
pulse is applied to a given address, the data in that address is verified. If the data does not verify, additional
pulses are given until it verifies or the maximum pulses
allowed is reached. This process i s repeated while sequencing through each address of the device. This part
of the algorithm is done at V
= 6.25 V to assure that
CC
each EPROM bit is programmed to a sufficiently high
threshold voltage. After the final address is completed,
the entire EPROM memory is verified at V
= VPP =
CC
5.25 V.
Please refer to Section 5 of the EPR OM Products Data
Book for additional programming inf ormation and specifications.
Program Inhibit
Programming different data to multiple devices in parallel is easily accomplished. Except for CE#, all like inputs of the devices may be c ommon. A TTL low-level
program pulse applied to one device’s CE# input with
V
= 12.75 V ± 0.25 V and PGM# LOW will program
PP
that particular device. A high-level CE# input inhibits
the other devices from being programmed.
Program Verify
A verification should be performed on the programmed
bits to determine that they were correctly progr ammed.
The verify should be perfor med with OE# and CE#, at
, PGM# at VIH, and VPP between 12.5 V and 13.0 V.

Autoselect Mode
The autosel ect mode provides ma nufacturer and device identification through iden tifier codes on DQ0–
DQ7. This mode is primarily intended for programming
equipment to automatically match a device to be programmed with its correspo nding programming algorithm. This mode is functional in the 25°C ± 5°C
ambient temperature range that is required when programming the device.
To activate this mode, the programming equipment
must force V
on address line A9. Two identifier bytes
H
may then be sequenced from the de vice outputs b y toggling address line A0 from V
to V
IL
(that is, changing
IH
the address from 00h to 01h). All other address lines
must be held at V
during the autoselect mode.
IL
Byte 0 (A0 = VIL) represents the manufacturer code,
and Byte 1 (A0 = V
), the device identifier code. Both
IH
codes have odd parity, with DQ7 as the parity bit.
Read Mode
T o obtain dat a at the device o utputs, Chip Enable ( CE#)
and Output Enable (OE#) must be driven lo w . CE# controls the power to the de vice and is typically used t o select the device . OE# ena b l es the device to output data,
independent of device selection. Addresses must be
stable for at least t
ACC–tOE.
Refer to the Switching
Waveforms section for the timing diagram.
Standby Mode
The device enters the CMOS standby mode when CE#
is at V
± 0.3 V. Maximum V
CC
current is reduced to
CC
100 µA. The device enters the TTL-standby mode
when CE# is at V
. Maximum V
IH
current is reduced
CC
to 1.0 mA. When in either standby mode, the device
places its outputs in a high-impedance state, independent of the OE# input.
Output OR-Tieing
To accommodate multiple memor y connections, a
two-line control function provides:
■ Low memory power dissipation, and
■ Assurance that output b us content ion will not occ ur .
CE# should be decoded and used as the primary device-selecting function, while OE# be made a common
Am27C645
connection to all devices in the array and connected to
the READ line from the system control bus. This assures that all deselected memory devices are in their
low-power standby mode and that the output pins are
only active when data is desired from a particular memory device.
System Applications
During the switch between a ctive and standby conditions, transient current peaks are produced on the rising and falling edges of Chip Enab le. The magnitude of
MODE SELECT TABLE
these transient current peaks is dependent on the output capacitance loading of the de vi ce. At a minim um, a
0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (high frequency, low inherent
inductance) sho uld be used on each device between
and VSS to minimize transient effects. In addition,
V
CC
to overcome the voltage drop caused by the inductive
effects of the printed circuit boar d traces on EPROM arrays, a 4.7 µF bul k electrolytic capacitor should be used
between V
and VSS for each eight de vices. The loca-
CC
tion of the capacitor should be close to where the
power supply is connected to the array.
