GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am27C020 is a 2 Megabit, ultraviolet erasable pro-
grammable read-only memory. It is organized as 256
Kwords by 8 bits per word, operates from a sing le +5 V
supply, has a static standby mode, and features fast
single address location programming. Products are
available in windowed ceramic DIP pac kages, as well
as plastic one time programmable (OTP) PDIP and
PLCC packages.
Data can be typically accessed in less than 55 ns, al-
lowing high-performance microprocessors to operate
without any WAIT states. The device offers separate
Output Enable (OE#) and Chip Enable (CE#) controls,
thus eliminating bus contention in a multiple bus micro-
proc esso r sys te m.
AMD’s CMOS process technology provides high
speed, low power, and high noise immunity. Typical
power consumption is only 100 mW in active mode,
and 100 µW in standby mode.
All signals are TTL levels, including programming sig-
nals. Bit locations may be programmed singly, in
blocks, or at random. The device supports AMD’s
Flashrite programming algorithm (100 µs pulses), re-
sulting in a typical programming time of 32 seconds.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Device Erasure
In order to clear all locations of their programmed con-
tents, the device must be exposed to an ultra violet light
source. A dosage of 15 W seconds/cm2 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 should be directly under and
about one inch from th e 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 wavelengths shorter than 4000 Å, s uch
as fluorescent light and sunlight. Although the erasure
process happens over a much longer time period, ex-
posure to any light source should be prevented for
maximum system reliability. Simply cover the package
window with an opaque label or substance.
Device Programming
Upon delivery, or after each erasure, the device has
all of its bi ts in the “ONE”, or HI GH state. “ZEROs” are
loaded into the device through the programming pro-
cedure.
The device enters the programming mode when 12.75
V ± 0.25 V is applied to the VPP pin, and CE# and
PGM# are at VIL and OE# is at VIH.
For programming, the data to be programmed is ap-
plied 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 Flashrite algo-
rithm reduces programming time by using a 100 µs pro-
gramming pulse and by giving each address only as
many pulses to reliably program the data. After each
pulse is applied to a giv en address, the data in that ad-
dress is verified. If the data does not verify, additional
pulses are given until it verifies or the maximum pulses
allowed is reached. This process is repeated while se-
quencing thro ugh eac h address o f the device . This part
of the algorithm is done at VCC = 6.25 V to assure that
each EPROM bit is programmed to a sufficiently high
threshold voltage. After the final address is completed,
the entire EPROM memory is verified at VCC = VPP =
5.25 V.
Please refer t o Section 5 of the EPROM Products Data
Book for addit ional programming information and s pec-
ifications.
Program Inhibit
Programming different data to multiple devices in par-
allel is easily accomplished. Except for CE#, all like in-
puts of the devices may be common. A TTL low-level
program pulse applied to one device’s CE# input with
VPP = 12.75 V ± 0.25 V and PGM# LOW, and OE#
HIGH will program that particular device. A high-level
CE# input inhibits the other devices from being pro-
grammed.
Program Verify
A verification should be perfor med on the programmed
bits to det ermine that th ey were correct ly programmed.
The verify should be performed with OE# and CE#, at
VIL, PGM# at V IH, and VPP between 12. 5 V and 13.0 V.
Autoselect Mode
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and de-
vice identification through identifier codes on DQ0–
DQ7. This mode is primarily intended for programming
equipment to automatically match a device to be pro-
grammed with its corresponding programming algo-
rithm. This mode is functional in the 25°C ± 5°C
ambient temperature range that is required when pro-
gramming the device.
To activate this mode, the programming equipment
must fo rce VH on address line A9. Two identifier bytes
may then be sequenced from the device outputs by
toggling address line A0 from V IL to VIH (that is, c hang-
ing the address from 00h to 01h). All other address
lines must be held at VIL during the autoselect mode.
Byte 0 (A0 = VIL) represents the manufacturer code,
and Byte 1 (A0 = VIH), the device identifier code. Both
codes have odd parity, with DQ7 as the parity bit.
Read Mode
To obtain data at the device outputs, Chip Enable
(CE#) and Output Enable (OE#) must be driven low.
CE# controls the power to the device and is typically
used to select the device. OE# enables the device to
output data, independent of device selection. Ad-
dresses must be stable for at least tACC–tOE. Refer to
the Switching Waveforms section for the timing dia-
gram.
Standby Mode
The device enters the CMOS sta ndby mode when CE#
is at VCC ± 0.3 V. Maximum VCC current is reduced to
100 µA. The device enters the TTL-standby mode
when CE# is at VIH. Maximum VCC current is reduced
to 1.0 mA. When in either standby mode, the device
places its outputs in a high-impedance state, indepen-
dent of the OE# input.
Output OR-Tieing
To accommodate multiple memory connections, a
two-line control function provid es:
Low memory power dissipation, and
Assurance th at output bus contention will not oc cur.
6 Am27C020
CE# should be decoded and used as the primary de-
vice-selecting funct ion, wh ile OE# be made a common
connection to all device s in the array and connect ed to
the READ line from the system control bus. This as-
sures 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 mem-
ory device.
System Applications
During the switch between active and standby condi-
tions, transient current peaks are produced on the ris-
ing and falling edges of Chip Enable. The magnitude of
these transient current peaks is dependent on the out-
put capacitance loading of the device. At a minimum, a
0.1 µF ceramic capacitor (high frequency, low inherent
inductance) should be used on each device between
VCC and VSS to minimize transient effects. In addition,
to overcome the voltage drop caused by the inductive
effects of the printed circuit board traces on EPROM ar-
rays, a 4.7 µF bulk electrolytic capacitor should be
used between VCC and VSS for each eight devices. The
location of the capacitor should be close to where the
power supply is connected to the array.
