DESCRIPTION
The M 27C322 is a 32 Mbit EP ROM offered i n the
UV range (ultra violet erase). It is ideally suited for
microprocessor systems requiring large data or
program storage. It is organised as 2 MWords of
16 bit. The pin-out is compatible with a 32 Mbit
Mask ROM.
The FDIP42W (window ceramic frit-seal package)
has a transparent lid which all ows the user to ex-
pose the chip to ultr aviolet light to erase the bit pat-
tern. A new pattern can then be written rapidly to
the device by following the programming proce-
dure.
For applications where the content is programmed
only one time and erasure is not required, the
M27C322 is offered in PDIP42 pac kage.

from E to output (tELQV). Data is available at the
output af ter a delay of tGLQV from the f alling edge
of GVPP, assuming that E has been low and the
addresses have been stable for at least tAVQV-
tGLQV.
Standby Mo de
The M27C322 has a standby mode whi ch reduces
the supply current from 50mA to 100µA. The
M27C322 is placed in the standby mode by apply-
ing a CMOS high signal to the E input.When in the
standby mode, the outputs are in a high imped-
ance state, independen t of the GVPP input.
Two Li ne Ou tp ut C on t rol
Because EPROMs are usually used in larger
memory arrays, this pr oduct features a 2 line con-
trol function which accom mo dates the use of m ul-
tiple memory connection. The two line control
function allows:
a. the lowest possible memory power dissipation,
b. comple te assuranc e that output bus contention
will not occur.
For the most efficient use of these two control
lines, E should be decoded and used as the prima-
ry device selecting function, whil e G VPP should be
made a common connection to all devices in the
array and connected to the READ line from the
system control bus. This ensures that al l deselect-
ed memory devices are in their low power standby
mode and that the output pins are only active
when data is required from a particular memory
device.

DEVICE OPERATION
The operati ng m odes of the M27C322 are listed i n
the Operating Modes Table. A single power supply
is required in the read mode. All inputs are TTL
compatib le except for V PP and 1 2V on A 9 fo r t he
Electronic Signa ture.
Read Mode
The M27C322 has a word-wide organization. Chip
Enable (E) is the power control and should be
used for device selection. Output Enable (G) is the
output control and shoul d be used to gate data to
the output pins independent of device selection.
Assuming that the addresses are stable, the ad-
dress access time (tAVQV) is equal to the delay

ic capacitor is used on every device bet ween VCC
and VSS. This should be a hi gh frequency type of
low inherent inductance and shou ld be placed as
close as possible to the device. In addition, a
4.7µF electrolytic capacitor should be used be-
tween V CC and VSS for every eight devices. This
capacitor should be mounted near the power sup-
ply connection point. The purpose of t his capacitor
is to overcom e th e volt age d rop c aused by the in-

System Con siderations
The power switching characteristics of Advanced
CMOS EPROMs require careful dec oupling of the
supplies to the devices. The supply current ICC
has three segments of importance to the system
designer: the standby current, the active current
and the transient peaks th at are produced by the
falling and rising edges of E. The magnitude of the
transient current peaks is dependent on the ca-
pacitive and inductive loading of the device out-
puts. The associated transi ent voltage peaks can
be suppressed by complyi ng with the two line out -

Programming
When delivered (and after each erasure for UV
EPROM), all bits of the M27C322 are in the "1"
state. Data is introduced by selectively program-
ming "0"s into the desired bit locations. Although
only "0"s will be programmed, both "1"s and "0"s
can be present in the data word. The on ly way to
change a "0" to a "1" is by die exposition to ultravi-
olet light (UV EPROM). The M27C322 is in the
programming mode when VPP input is at 12.V,
GVPP is at VIH and E is pu lsed t o VIL. T he data t o
be pro grammed is applied to 16 b its in parallel to
the data output pins. The levels required for the
address and data inputs are TTL. VCC is specified
to be 6.25V ± 0.25V.

PRES TO II I Programm i ng Algorithm
The PRESTO III Programming Algorithm allows
the whole array to be programed with a guaran-
teed margin in a typical time of 100 seconds. Pro-
gramming with PRESTO I II con sists of applying a
sequence of 50µs program pulses to each word
until a correct verify occurs (see Figure 8). During
programing and verify operation a MARGIN
MODE circuit must be activated to guarantee that
each cell is programed with enough margin. No
overprogram pulse is applied since the verify in
MARGIN MODE provides the nec essary margin to
each programmed cell.
Program Inhibit
Programming of multiple M27C322s in parallel
with different data is also easily accomplished. Ex-
cept for E, all like inputs incl uding GVPP of the par-
allel M27C322 may be co mmon. A TTL low level
pulse applie d to a M27C322's E i nput and VPP at
12V, will program that M27C322. A high le vel E in-
put inhibits the other M27C322s from being pro-
grammed.
Program Verify
A verify (read) should be performed on the pro-
grammed bits to det ermine that they were correct-
ly programmed. The verify is accomplished with

On-Boa rd Progra mming
The M27C 322 can be directly programmed in the
application circuit. See the relevant Application
Note AN620.
Electronic Sign atur e
The Electronic Signature (ES) mode allows the
reading out of a binary code from an EPROM that
will identify its manufacturer an d type. This mode
is intended for use b y programmin g equipment to
automaticall y match the device to be programmed
with its corresponding programming algorithm.
The ES mode is functional in the 25°C ± 5°C am-
bient temperature range that is required when pro-
gramming the M27C322. To activate the ES
mode, the programming equipment must force
11.5V to 12.5V on address line A9 of the
M27C322, with VPP = VCC = 5V. Two identifier
bytes may then be sequenced from the device out-
puts by toggling address line A0 from VIL to VIH. All
other address lines must be held at VIL during
Electronic Signa ture mode.
Byte 0 (A0 = VIL) represents the manufacturer
code and byte 1 (A0 = VIH) the device identifier
code. For the STMicroelectronics M27C322, these
two identifier bytes are given in Table 4 and can be
read-out on outputs Q0 to Q7.
ERASU RE OPERAT ION ( appli es to UV E PROM)
The erasure characteristics of the M27C322 is
such that erasure begins when the cells are ex-
posed to light with wavelengths shorter than ap-
proximately 4000 Å. It should be noted that
sunlight and some type of fluoresce nt lamps have
wavelengths in the 3000-400 0 Å range . Research
shows that constant exposure to room level fluo-
rescent lighting could erase a typical M 27C322 in
about 3 years, whi le it would take approximately 1
week to cause erasure when exposed to direct
sunlight. If t he M27C322 is to be expos ed to these
types of lighting conditi ons for extended periods of
time, it is suggested that opaque labels be put over
the M27C322 window to prevent unint entional era-
sure. The recommended erasure procedure for
M27C322 is exposure to short wave ultraviolet
light which has a wavelength of 2537 Å . The inte-
grated dose (i.e. UV intensi ty x exposure time) for
erasure should be a minimum of 30 W-sec/cm2.
The erasure time with this dosage is approximate-
ly 30 to 40 minutes using an ultraviolet lamp with
12000 µW/cm2 power rating. The M27C322
should be placed within 2.5cm (1 inch) of t he l amp
tubes during the erasure. Some lamps have a filter
on their tubes which should be removed before
erasure.
