DESCRIPTION
The M27128A is a 131,072 bit UV erasable and
electrically programmable memory EPROM. It is
organized as 16,384 words by 8 bits.
The M27128A is housed in a 28 Pin Window Ceramic Frit-Seal Dual-in-Line package. The transparent lid allows the user to expose the chip to
ultraviolet light to erase the bit pattern. A new
pattern can then be written to the device by following the programming procedure.

DEVICE OPERATION
The seven modes of operation of the M27128A are
listed in the Operating Modes table. A single 5V
power supply is required in the read mode. All
inputs are TTL lev els except for VPP and 12V on A9
for Electronic Signature.
Read Mode
The M27128A has two control functions, both of
which must be logically satisfied 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) is the output control and should
be used to gate data to the output pins, independent of device selection.
Assuming that the addresses are stable, address
access time (t
output (t
ELQV
the falling edge of
) is equal to the delay from E to
AVQV
). Data is available at the outputs after
G, assuming that E has been low
and the addresses have been stable for at least
t
AVQV-tGLQV
.
Standby Mo de
The M27128A has a standby mode whic h reduces
the maximum active power current from 85mA to
40mA. The M27128A is placed in the standby mode
by applying a TTL high signal to the
E input. Whe n
in the standby mode, the outputs are in a high
impedance state, independent of the
G input.
Two Line Output Control
Because EPROM s 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 t hat output bus co ntention
will not occur.
2/10
Page 3
M27128A
DEVICE OPER ATION (cont’d)
For the most efficient us e of these two control lines,
E should be decoded and used as the primary
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
control bus.
This ensures that all deselected memory devices
are in their low power standby mode and that the
output pins are only active when data is requi red
from a particular memory device.
System Considerati ons
The power switching characteristics of fast
EPROMs require careful decoupling of the devices.
The supply current, I
, has three segments that
CC
are of interest to the system designer: the standby
current level, the active c urrent level, and transient
current peaks that are produced by the falling and
rising edges of
E. The magnitude of this transient
current peaks is dependent on the capacitive and
inductive loading of the device at the output. The
associated transient voltage peaks can be suppressed by complying with the two line output
control and by properly selected decoupling capacitors. It is recommended that a 1µF ceramic
capacitor be used on every device between 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. In addition, a
4.7µF bulk electrolytic capacitor should be used
between V
and GND for ev ery eight devices. T he
CC
bulk capacitor should be located near the power
supply connection point. The purpose of the bulk
capacitor is to overcome the voltage drop caused
by the inductive effects of PCB trac es.
Programming
When delivered (and after each erasure for UV
EPPROM), all bits of the M27128A are in the “1"
state. Data is introduced by selectively programming ”0s" into the desired bit locations. Although
only “0s” will be programmed, both “1s” and “0s”
can be present in the data word. The only way to
change a “0" to a ”1" is by ultraviolet light erasure.
The M27128A is in the programming mode when
input is at 12.5V and E and P are at TTL low.
V
PP
The data to be programmed is applied 8 bits in
parallel, to the data output pins. The lev els required
for the address and data inputs are TTL.

continually monitored to determine when it has
been successfully programmed. A flowchart of the
M27128A Fast Programming Algorithm is shown
on the last page. The Fast Programming Algorithm
utilizes two different pulse types: initial and overprogram.
The duration of the initial
will then be followed by a longer overprogr am pulse
of length 3ms by n (n is equal to the number of the
initial one millisecond pulses applied to a particular
M27128A location), before a correct verify occurs.
Up to 25 one-millisecond pulses per byte are provided for before the over program pulse is applied.
The entire sequence of program pulses and byte
verifications is performed at V
12.5V . When the Fast Programming cycle has been
completed, all bytes should be compared to the
original data with V

A verify should be performed on the programmed

G = VIL,
E = VIL, P = VIH and VPP at 12.5V.
Electronic Signature
The Electronic Signature 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 matc h the devic e to be programm ed
with its corresponding programming algorithm.
This mode is functional in the25°C ± 5°C ambient
temperature ran ge that is required wh en programming the M2 7128A.
T o act ivate this mode, the pr ogramming equipment
must force 1 1.5V to 12.5V on address line A9 of the
M27128A. Two identifier bytes may then be sequenced from the device outputs by toggling address line A0 from V

ERASURE OPER A TION (ap plies to UV EPRO M)
The erasure characteristic of the M27128A 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 wavelengt hs in th e
3000-4000 Å range. Research shows that constant
exposure to room level fluorescent lighting could
erase a typical M27128A in about 3 years, while it
would take approximately 1 week to cause erasure
when exposed to direct sunlight. If the M27128A is
to be exposed to these types of lighting conditions
for extended periods of time, it is suggested that
opaque labels be put over the M27128A window to
prevent unintentional erasure. The recommended
erasure procedure for the M27128A is exposure t o
short wave ultraviolet light which has wavelength
2537 Å. The integrated dose (i.e. UV intensity x
exposure time) for erasure should be a minimum
of 15 W-s ec/cm
is approximately 15 to 20 minutes using an ultraviolet lamp with 12000 µW/cm
2
. The erasure time with this d osage
2
power rating. The
M27128A should be placed within 2.5cm (1 inch)
of the lamp tubes during the erasur e. Some lamps
have a filter on their tubes which should be removed before erasure.
