DESCRIPTION
The M87C257 is a high speed 262,144 bit UV
erasable and electrically programmable EPROM.
The M87C257 incorporates latches for all address
inputs to minimize chip count, reduce cost, and
simplify the design of multiplexed bus systems.
The Window Ceramic Frit-Seal Dual-in-Line package has a transparent lid which 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.
For applications where the content is programmed
only one time and erasure is not required, the
M87C257 is offered in Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier,
package.

Notes: 1. Except for the rating "Operating Temperature Range", stresses above those listed in the Table "Absolute Maximum Ratings"
may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation of the device at these or any other
conditions above those indicated in the Operating sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to Absolute Maximum
Rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. Refer also to the SGS-THOMSON SURE Program and other
relevant quality documents.
2. Minimum DC voltage on Input or Output is –0.5V with possible undershoot to –2.0V for a period less than 20ns. Maximum DC
voltage on Output is VCC +0.5V with possible overshoot to VCC +2V for a period less than 20ns.
DEVICE OPERATION
The modes of operation of the M87C257 are listed
in the Operating Modes. A single power supply is
required in the read mode. All inputs are TTL levels
except for VPP and 12V on A9 for Electronic Signature.

Read Mode
The M87C257 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) 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 (AS = VIH) or latched (AS =
VIL), the address access time (tAVQV) is equal to the
delay from E to output (tELQV). Data is available at
the output after delay of tGLQV from the falling edge
of G, assuming that E has been low and the addresses have been stable for at least tAVQV-tGLQV.
The M87C257 reduces the hardware interface in
multiplexed address-data bus systems. The processor multiplexed bus (AD0-AD7) may be tied to
the M87C257’s address and data pins. No separate address latch is needed because the
M87C257 latches all address inputs when AS is
low.
Standby Mode
The M87C257 has a standby mode which reduces
the active current from 30mA to 100µA (Address
Stable). The M87C257 is placed in the standby
mode by applying a CMOS high signal to the E
input. When in the standby mode, the outputs are
in a 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,
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 desired from a particular memory device.

System Considerations
The power switching characteristics of Advance
CMOS EPROMs require careful 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 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
4/13
output control and by properly selected decoupling
capacitors. It is recommended that a 0.1µF ceramic
capacitor be used on every device between VCC
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 VCC and VSS for every eight devices. The
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 traces.

Programming
When delivered (and after each erasure for UV
EPROM), all bits of the M87C257 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 exposition to ultraviolet light (UV EPROM). The M87C257 is in the
programming mode when VPP input is at 12.75V, G
is at VIH and E is pulsed to VIL. The data to be
programmed is applied to 8 bits in parallel to the
data output pins. The levels required for the address and data inputs are TTL. VCC is specified to
be 6.25 V ± 0.25 V.

PRESTO II Programming Algorithm
PRESTO II Programming Algorithm allows to program the whole array with a guaranteed margin, in
a typical time of 3.5 seconds. Programming with
PRESTO II involves the application of 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 since the verify in
MARGIN MODE provides necessary margin to
each programmed cell.
Program Inhibit
Programming of multiple M87C257s in parallel with
different data is also easily accomplished. Except
for E, all like inputs including G of the parallel
M87C257 may be common. A TTL low level pulse
applied to a M87C257’s E input, with VPP at 12.75V,
will program that M87C257. A high level E input
inhibits the other M87C257s from being programmed.
Program Verify
A verify (read) should be performed on the programmed bits to determine that they were correctly
programmed. The verify is accomplished with G at
VIL, E at VIH, VPP at 12.75V and VCC at 6.25V.
M87C257
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 to be programmed
with its corresponding programming algorithm. The
ES mode is functional in the 25°C ± 5°C ambient
temperature range that is required when programming the M87C257.
To activate the ES mode, the programming equipment must force 11.5V to 12.5V on address line A9
of the M87C257, with VCC = VPP = 5V. Two identifier
bytes may then be sequenced from the device
outputs by toggling address line A0 from V IL to VIH.
All other address lines must be held at VIL during
Electronic Signature mode. Byte 0 (A0=VIL) represents the manufacturer code and byte 1 (A0=VIH)
the device identifier code. When A9 = VID, AS need
not be toggled to latch each identifier address. For
the SGS-THOMSON M87C257, these two identifier bytes are given in Table 4 and can be read-out
on outputs Q0 to Q7.
ERASURE OPERATION (applies for UV EPROM)
The erasure characteristics of the M87C257 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
erase a typical M87C257 in about 3 years, while it
would take approximately 1 week to cause erasure
when exposed to direct sunlight. If the M87C257 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 M87C257 window to
prevent unintentional erasure. The recommended
erasure procedure for the M87C257 is exposure to
short wave ultraviolet light which has wavelength
2537Å. The integrated 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 approximately 15 to 20 minutes using an
ultraviolet lamp with 12000 µW/cm2 power rating.
The M87C257 should be placed within 2.5 cm (1
inch) of the lamp tubes during the erasure. Some
lamps have a filter on their tubes which should be
removed before erasure.
