A27020A Series
Functional Description
Read Mode
Auto Identify Mode
The A27020A has two control functions, both of which
must be logically active in order to obtain data at the
The auto identify mode allows the reading out of a binary
code from a EPROM that will identify its manufacturer
and type. This mode is intended for use by programming
equipment for the purpose of automatically matching the
device to be programmed with its corresponding
programming algorithm.
outputs. CE is the power control and should be used for
device selection. OE is the output control and should
be used to data to the output pins, which is independent
of device selection. Assuming that addresses are stable,
address access time (tAA) is equal to the delay from CE
to output (tCE). Data is available at the output after a
To activate the mode, the programming equipment must
apply 12.0V ± 0.5V on address line A9 of the A27020A.
Three identification code can be read from data output
pin by toggling A0 and A1. The other addresses must be
held at VIL during this mode. Byte 0 (with A0 at VIL, A1 at
VIL) represents the manufacturer code which is 37H.
Byte 1 and Byte 2 represent the device code and
continuation code, which is 64H and 7FH respectively.
All identifiers for these codes will possess odd parity,
with MSB (IO7) defined the parity bit.
delay (tOE) from the falling edge of OE , as long as CE
has been low and the addresses have been stable for at
least tACC - tOE.
Standby Mode
The A27020A has a standby mode which reduces the
active current from 30mA to 100µA. The A27020A is
placed in the standby mode by applying a CMOS high
signal to CE . When in the standby mode, the output are
in a high impedance state, independent of the OE .
Absolute Maximum Ratings*

Notes:
1. During voltage transitions, the input may undershoot GND to -2.0V for periods less than 20 ns. Maximum DC voltage
on input and I/O may overshoot to VCC + 2.0V for periods less than 20 ns.
2. When transitions, A9 and VPP may undershoot GND to -2.0V for periods less than 20 ns. Maximum DC input voltage
on A9 and VPP is +12.5V which may overshoot to 12.7V for period less than 20 ns.
