1. Description
The Atmel AT27LV020A is a high-performance, low-power, low-voltage, 2,097,152-bit,
one-time programmable, read-only memory (OTP EPROM) organized as 256K by 8 bits. It
requires only one supply in the range of 3.0 to 3.6V in normal read mode operation, making
it ideal for fast, portable systems using battery power.
The Atmel innovative design techniques provide fast speeds that rival 5V parts, while keep-
ing the low power consumption of a 3V supply. At VCC = 3.0V, any byte can be accessed in
less than 120ns. With a typical power dissipation of only 18mW at 5MHz and VCC = 3.3V,
the AT27LV020A consumes less than one-fifth the power of a standard, 5V EPROM.
Standby mode supply current is typically less than 1µA at 3.3V.
The AT27LV020A is available in an industry-standard, JEDEC-approved, one-time program-
mable (OTP) PLCC package. All devices feature two-line control (CE, OE) to give
designers the flexibility to prevent bus contention.
The AT27LV020A operating with VCC at 3.0V produces TTL-level outputs that are compati-
ble with standard TTL logic devices operating at VCC = 5.0V. The device is also capable of
standard, 5V operation, making it ideally suited for dual supply range systems or card prod-
ucts that are pluggable in both 3V and 5V hosts.
The AT27LV020A has additional features to ensure high quality and efficient production use.
The rapid programming algorithm reduces the time required to program the part and guar-
antees reliable programming. Programming time is typically only 100µs/byte. The
integrated product identification code electronically identifies the device and manufacturer.
This feature is used by industry standard programming equipment to select the proper
