read / output disable

When the outputs of two or more TMS27C512s or TMS27PC512s are connected in parallel on the same bus,

the output of any particular device in the circuit can be read with no interference from the competing outputs

All other devices in the circuit should have their outputs disabled by applying a high-level signal to one of these

pins. Output data is accessed at pins DQ0 through DQ7.

latchup immunity

Latchup immunity on the TMS27C512 and TMS27PC512 is a minimum of 250 mA on all inputs and outputs.

This feature provides latchup immunity beyond any potential transients at the P.C. board level when the devices

are interfaced to industry-standard TTL or MOS logic devices. Input-output layout approach controls latchup

without compromising performance or packing density.

inputs) by applying a high TTL / CMOS signal to the E pin. In this mode all outputs are in the high-impedance

state.

erasure ( TMS27C512)

Before programming, the TMS27C512 EPROM is erased by exposing the chip through the transparent lid

to a high intensity ultraviolet light (wavelength 2537 angstroms). EPROM erasure before programming is

necessary to assure that all bits are in the logic high state. Logic lows are programmed into the desired locations.

A programmed logic low can be erased only by ultraviolet light. The recommended minimum exposure dose

(UV intensity

21 minutes. The lamp should be located about 2.5 cm above the chip during erasure. It should be noted that

normal ambient light contains the correct wavelength for erasure. Therefore, when using the TMS27C512, the

window should be covered with an opaque label.
