Autoselect Mode
Note that all UV erasable devices will erase with light
sources having wavelengths shorter than 4000 Å, such
as fluorescent light and sunlight. Although the erasure
process happens over a much longer time period, ex-
posure to any light source should be prevented for
maximum system reliability. Simply cover the package
window with an opaque label or substance.
The autoselect mode provides manufacturer and de-
vice identification through identifier codes on DQ0–
DQ7. This mode is primarily intended for programming
equipment to automatically match a device to be pro-
grammed with its corresponding programming algo-
rithm. This mode is functional in the 25°C ± 5°C
ambient temperature range that is required when pro-
gramming the device.
Device Programming
Upon delivery, or after each erasure, the device has
all of its bits in the “ONE”, or HIGH state. “ZEROs” are
loaded into the device through the programming pro-
cedure.
To activate this mode, the programming equipment
must force V on address line A9. Two identifier bytes
H
may then be sequenced from the device outputs by tog-
gling address line A0 from V to V (that is, changing

codes have odd parity, with DQ7 as the parity bit.

The flowchart in the Programming section of the
EPROM Products Data Book (Section 5, Figure 5-1)
shows AMD’s Flashrite algorithm. The Flashrite algo-
rithm reduces programming time by using a 100 µs pro-
gramming pulse and by giving each address only as
many pulses to reliably program the data. After each
pulse is applied to a given address, the data in that ad-
dress is verified. If the data does not verify, additional
pulses are given until it verifies or the maximum pulses
allowed is reached. This process is repeated while se-
quencing through each address of the device. This part

To obtain data at the device outputs, Chip Enable (CE#)
and Output Enable (OE#) must be driven low. CE# con-
trols the power to the device and is typically used to se-
lect the device. OE# enables the device to output data,
independent of device selection. Addresses must be
stable for at least t
