DESCRIPTION
The M27C256B is a 256 Kbit EPROM offered in
the two ranges UV (ultra violet erase) and OTP
(one timeprogrammable). Itis ideally suitedformicroprocessor systems and is organized as32,768
by 8 bits.
The FDIP28W (window ceramic frit-seal package)
has a transparent lid which allows the user to expose thechipto ultraviolet lightto erase thebitpattern. A new pattern can then be written to the
device by following the programmingprocedure.
For applications where the content is programmed
only one time and erasure is not required, the
M27C256B is offered in PDIP28, PLCC32 and
TSOP28 (8 x 13.4 mm) packages.

DEVICE OPERATION
The operating modes of the M27C256B are listed
in the Operating Modes. A single power supply is
required in the read mode. All inputs are TTL levels except for VPPand 12V on A9 for Electronic
Signature.
Read Mode
The M27C256B has two control functions, both of
which must be logically active in order to obtain
data at the outputs. Chip Enable (E) is the power
control and should be used for device selection.
Output Enable(G) isthe outputcontrol and should
be used to gate data to the output pins, independent of device selection. Assuming that the ad-
4/16
dresses are stable, the address access time
(t
) is equal to the delay from E to output
AVQV
(t
). Data is available at the output after delay
ELQV
of t
from the falling edge of G, assuming that
GLQV
E has been low andthe addresses have been stable for at least t
AVQV-tGLQV
.
Standby Mode
The M27C256B has a standby modewhich reduces the supply current from 30mA to 100µA. The
M27C256B is placed in the standby mode by applying a CMOS high signalto the E input. When in
the standby mode, theoutputs are ina high impedance state,independent of the G input.

Two Line Output Control
Because EPROMs are usually used in larger
memory arrays, this product features a 2 line control function which accommodates the use of multiple memory connection. The two line control
function allows:
a. the lowest possible memory power dissipation,
b. complete assurance that output bus contention
will not occur.
For the most efficient use of these two control
lines, Eshould be decoded andused as theprimary device selecting function, while G should be
made a common connection to all devices in the
array and connected to the READ line from the
system controlbus. Thisensures that all deselected memorydevices are in their low power standby
mode and that the output pins are only active
when data is desired from aparticular memorydevice.

System Considerations
The power switching characteristics of Advance
CMOS EPROMs requirecareful decoupling of the
devices. The supply current, ICC, has three segments that are of interest to the system designer:
the standby current level, the active current level,
and transient current peaks that are produced by
the fallingand rising edgesof E. The magnitudeof
this transient current peaks is dependent on the
capacitive and inductive loading of the device at
the output.The associated transient voltagepeaks
can be suppressed bycomplying with the two line

outputcontrol and by properly selected decoupling
capacitors.It is recommended thata 0.1µF ceramic capacitorbe used onevery devicebetween V
CC
and VSS. This should be a high frequency capacitor of low inherent inductance and should be
placed as close to the device as possible. Inaddition, a 4.7µF bulk electrolytic capacitor should be
used between VCCand VSSfor every eight devices. The bulk capacitor should be located near the
power supply connectionpoint. The purposeofthe
bulk capacitor is to overcome the voltage drop
caused by the inductive effects of PCB traces.

Programming
When delivered (and after each erasure for UV
EPROM), all bits of the M27C256B are in the ”1”
state. Data is introduced by selectively programming ”0”s into the desired bit locations. Although
only ”0”s will be programmed, both ”1”s and ”0”s
can be present in the data word. The only way to
change a’0’to a’1’is by die exposure toultraviolet
light (UV EPROM). The M27C256B is in the programming modewhen VPPinput isat 12.75V, G is
at VIHand E is pulsed to VIL. The data to be programmed is applied to 8 bits inparallel to the data
output pins. The levels required for the address
and data inputs are TTL. VCCis specified to be
6.25V ± 0.25 V.

PROGRAMVERIFY
PRESTO II Programming Algorithm
PRESTO II Programming Algorithm allows to program thewhole array with aguaranteed margin, in
a typical time of 3.5 seconds. Programming with
PRESTO II involves the applicationof a sequence
of 100µs program pulses to each byte until a correct verify occurs (see Figure 7). During programming and verify operation, a MARGIN MODE
circuit is automatically activated in order to guarantee that each cell is programmed with enough
margin. No overprogram pulse is applied sincethe
verify in MARGIN MODE provides necessary margin to each programmed cell.
Program Inhibit
Programming of multiple M27C256Bs in parallel
with different data is also easily accomplished. Except for E,all likeinputs including G of theparallel
M27C256B may be common. A TTL low level
pulse applied to a M27C256B’s E input, with V
at 12.75V, will program that M27C256B. A high
level E input inhibits the other M27C256Bs from
being programmed.
Program Verify
AI00760B
A verify (read) should be performed on the programmed bitsto determine that theywere correctly programmed.The verify is accomplished with G
at VIL, E at VIH,VPPat 12.75V and VCCat 6.25V.

Electronic Signature
The Electronic Signature (ES) mode allows the
reading out of a binary code from an EPROM that
will identify its manufacturer and type. This mode
is intended for use by programming equipment to
automatically match the device tobe programmed
with its corresponding programming algorithm.
The ES mode is functional in the 25°C ± 5°C ambient temperaturerange thatis required when programming the M27C256B. To activate the ES
mode, the programming equipment must force
11.5V to 12.5V on address line A9 of the
M27C256B, with VCC=VPP= 5V. Two identifier
bytes maythen be sequenced fromthe device outputs bytoggling address line A0from VILtoVIH. All
other address lines must be held at VILduring
Electronic Signature mode. Byte 0 (A0 = VIL) represents the manufacturer code and byte 1
(A0 = VIH) the device identifier code. For the
STMicroelectronics M27C256B, these two identifier bytes are given in Table 4 and can be read-out
on outputs Q7 to Q0.
ERASURE OPERATION (appliesfor UV EPROM)
The erasure characteristics of the M27C256B is
such that erasure begins when the cells are exposed to light with wavelengths shorter than approximately 4000 Å. It should be noted that
sunlight and some type of fluorescent lamps have
wavelengths in the 3000-4000 Å range. Research
shows that constant exposure to room level fluorescent lighting could erasea typical M27C256Bin
about 3years, while it would takeapproximately 1
week to cause erasure when exposed to direct
sunlight. If the M27C256B is to be exposed to
these typesof lighting conditions for extended periods oftime, it is suggested that opaque labels be
put over the M27C256B window to prevent unintentional erasure.The recommended erasure procedure for the M27C256B is exposure to short
wave ultraviolet light which has wavelength
2537Å. Theintegrated dose (i.e. UV intensity x exposure time) for erasure should be a minimum of
15 W-sec/cm2. The erasure time with this dosage
is approximately15 to20 minutes using an ultraviolet lamp with 12000 µW/cm2power rating. The
M27C256B should be placed within 2.5 cm (1
inch) of the lamp tubes during the erasure. Some
lamps have a filter on theirtubes which should be
removed before erasure.
