The AM2764APC is a 64K (8192 x 8) electrically programmable read-only memory (EPROM). This device, originally manufactured by AMD, stores data that can be read but not easily modified under normal operating conditions. It’s designed for applications where non-volatile storage is required and occasional updates are needed.

Applications

• Firmware storage in embedded systems
• Program storage in microcontrollers
• Character generators for displays
• Lookup tables for data conversion
• Code storage in industrial equipment

Features

• 64K (8192 x 8) memory organization
• Single 5V power supply
• Fast access time
• TTL compatible inputs and outputs
• Three-state outputs

Benefits

• Non-volatile storage ensures data retention without power
• Easy to program using standard EPROM programmers
• Suitable for a wide range of applications requiring read-only memory
• Cost-effective solution for firmware storage
• Compatible with TTL logic for easy integration

Additional Details

The AM2764APC operates with a single 5V power supply and typically has an access time in the range of 200-450ns, depending on the specific variant. It is packaged in a 28-pin DIP package. The device utilizes a transparent lid, allowing the memory to be erased by exposure to ultraviolet light. After erasure, the memory can be reprogrammed with new data. The three-state outputs allow for easy memory expansion in larger systems. The AM2764APC is designed for reliable operation over the commercial temperature range. The reprogramming capability makes it suitable for prototyping and development, as well as applications where firmware updates are occasionally required. It provides a simple and reliable solution for non-volatile storage in embedded systems.
