Note 2: VCC must be applied simultaneously or before VPP and removed simultaneously or after VPP. The EPROM must not be inserted into or removed from a board with voltage applied to VPP or VCC. Note 3: The maximum absolute allowable voltage which may be applied to the VPP pin during programming is 14V. Care must be taken when switching the VPP supply to prevent any overshoot from exceeding this 14V maximum specification. At least a 0.1 mF capacitor is required across VCC to GND to suppress spurious voltage transients which may damage the device.

This assures that all deselected memory devices are in their low power standby modes and that the output pins are active only when data is desired from a particular memory device. DEVICE OPERATION The six modes of operation of the NMC27C32B are listed in Table I. A single 5V power supply is required in the read mode. All inputs are TTL levels except for OE/VPP during programming. In the program mode the OE/VPP input is pulsed from a TTL low level to 12.75V. Programming CAUTION: Exceeding 14V on pin 20 OE/VPP will damage the NMC27C32B. Initially, and after each erasure, all bits of the NMC27C32B 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 presented in the data word. The only way to change a ‘‘0’’ to a ‘‘1’’ is by ultraviolet light erasure. The NMC27C32B is in the programming mode when OE/VPP is at 12.75V. It is required that at least a 0.1 mF capacitor be placed across VCC and ground to suppress spurious voltage transients which may damage the device. The data to be programmed is applied 8 bits in parallel to the data output pins. The levels required for the address and data inputs are TTL. When the address and data are stable, an active low, TTL program pulse is applied to the CE input. A program pulse must be applied at each address location to be programmed. The NMC27C32B is programmed with the Fast Programming Algorithm shown in Figure 1 . Each Address is programmed with a series of 100 ms pulses until it verifies good, up to a maximum of 25 pulses. Most memory cells will Program with a single 100 ms pulse. Read Mode The NMC27C32B has two control functions, both of which must be logically active in order to obtain data at the outputs. Chip Enable (CE) is the power control and should be used for device selection. Output Enable (OE) is the output control and should be used to gate data to the output pins, independent of device selection. Assuming that addresses are stable, address access time (tACC) is equal to the delay from CE to output (tCE). Data is available at the outputs tOE after the falling edge of OE, assuming that CE has been low and addresses have been stable for at least tACC – tOE. The sense amps are clocked for fast access time. VCC should therefore be maintained at operating voltage during read and verify. If VCC temporarily drops below the spec. voltage (but not to ground) an address transition must be performed after the drop to ensure proper output data. Standby Mode The NMC27C32B has a standby mode which reduces the active power dissipation by 99%, from 55 mW to 0.55 mW. The NMC27C32B is placed in the standby mode by applying a CMOS high signal to the CE input. When in standby mode, the outputs are in a high impedance state, independent of the OE input. Note: Some programmer manufactures due to equipment limitation may offer interactive program Algorithm (Shown in Figure 2 ). Output OR-Tying Because EPROMs are usually used in larger memory arrays, National has provided a 2-line control function that accommodates this use of multiple memory connection. The 2-line control function allows for: a. The lowest possible memory power dissipation, and b. complete assurance that output bus contention will not occur. To most efficiently use these two control lines, it is recommended that CE (pin 18) be decoded and used as the primary device selecting function, while OE (pin 20) be made a The NMC27C32B must not be programmed with a DC signal applied to the CE input. Programming multiple NMC27C32Bs in parallel with the same data can be easily accomplished due to the simplicity of the programming requirements. Like inputs of the paralleled NMC27C32B may be connected together when they are programmed with the same data. A low level TTL pulse applied to the CE input programs the paralleled NMC27C32B.

Covering the window will also prevent temporary functional failure due to the generation of photo currents. Program Inhibit Programming multiple NMC27C32B in parallel with different data is also easily accomplished. Except for CE all like inputs (including OE) of the parallel NMC27C32B may be common. A TTL low level program pulse applied to an NMC27C32B’s CE input with OE/VPP at 12.75V will program that NMC27C32B. A TTL high level CE input inhibits the other NMC27C32B from being programmed. The recommended erasure procedure for the NMC27C32B is exposure to short wave ultraviolet light which has a wavelength of 2537Ð. The integrated dose (i.e., UV intensity c exposure time) for erasure should be a minimum of 15 W-sec/cm2. The NMC27C32B should be placed within 1 inch of the lamp tubes during erasure. Some lamps have a filter on their tubes which should be removed before erasure. Table III shows the minimum NMC27C32B erasure time for various light intensities. An erasure system should be calibrated periodically. The distance from lamp to unit should be maintained at one inch. The erasure time increases as the square of the distance. (If distance is doubled the erasure time increases by a factor of 4.) Lamps lose intensity as they age. When a lamp is changed, the distance has changed or the lamp has aged, the system should be checked to make certain full erasure is occurring. Incomplete erasure will cause symptoms that can be misleading. Programmers, components, and even system designs have been erroneously suspected when incomplete erasure was the problem. Program Verify A verify should be performed on the programmed bit to determine whether they were correctly programmed. The verify is accomplished with OE/VPP and CE at VIL. Data should be verified tDV after the falling edge of CE. MANUFACTURER’S IDENTIFICATION CODE The NMC27C32B has a manufacturer’s identification code to aid in programming. The code, shown in Table II, is two bytes wide and is stored in a ROM configuration on the chip. It identifies the manufacturer and the device type. The code for the NMC27C32B is, ‘‘8F01’’, where ‘‘8F’’ designates that it is made by National Semiconductor, and ‘‘01’’ designates a 32k part. The code is accessed by applying 12.0V g 0.5V to address pin A9. Addresses A1–A8, A10–A11, CE, and OE are held at VIL. Address A0 is held at VIL for the manufacturer’s code, and at VIH for the device code. The code is read out on the 8 data pins. Proper code access is only guaranteed at 25§ C g 5§ C. The primary purpose of the manufacturer’s identification code is automatic programming control. When the device is inserted in an EPROM programmer socket, the programmer reads the code and then automatically calls up the specific programming algorithm for the part. This automatic programming control is only possible with programmers which have the capability of reading the code. SYSTEM CONSIDERATION The power switching characteristics of EPROMs require careful decoupling of the devices. The supply current, ICC, has three segments that are of interest to the system designerÐthe standby current level, the active current level, and the transient current peaks that are produced by voltage transitions on input pins. The magnitude of these transient current peaks is dependent on the output capacitance loading of the device. The associated VCC transient voltage peaks can be suppressed by properly selected decoupling capacitors. It is recommended that at least a 0.1 mF ceramic capacitor be used on every device between VCC and GND. This should be a high frequency capacitor of low inherent inductance. In addition, at least a 4.7 mF bulk electrolytic capacitor should be used between VCC and GND for each eight devices. The bulk capacitor should be located near where the power supply is connected to the array. The purpose of the bulk capacitor is to overcome the voltage drop caused by the inductive effects of the PC board traces. ERASURE CHARACTERISTICS The erasure characteristics of the NMC27C32B are such that erasure begins to occur when exposed to light with wavelengths shorter than approximately 4000 Angstroms (Ð). It should be noted that sunlight and certain types of fluorescent lamps have wavelengths in the 3000Ж 4000Ð range. After programming, opaque labels should be placed over the NMC27C32B’s window to prevent unintentional TABLE II.
