Additional Details
The AM2764-45/BXA is typically packaged in a 28-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package). Programming typically involves using a dedicated EPROM programmer to apply specific voltage levels to the device's pins. Erasing is accomplished by exposing the device to ultraviolet light through a quartz window on the top of the package.
