A276308A
Functional Description
Read Mode
Auto Identify Mode
The A276308A 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 delay
To activate the mode, the programming equipment must
apply 12.0V ± 0.5V on address line A9 of the A276308A.
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 2CH and 7FH respectively. All identifiers for
these codes will possess odd parity, with MSB (IO7)
defined the parity bit.
(tOE) from the falling edge of OE , as long as CE has
been low and the addresses have been stable for at least
tAA - tOE.
Standby Mode
The A276308A has a standby mode which reduces the
active current from 30mA to 100mA. The A276308A 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 .

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 +13.5V which may overshoot to 14.0V for period less than 20 ns.
