Can I use a 27C040 eprom instead of 27C020? |
|

I need to burn some data onto a 27C020 EPROM but can't get my hands on one.
Can I use a 27C040 instead????

Haven't done this since the 2764 days, but you need to make sure you
don't have any floating address lines. If there's an extra address pin,
you can tie it high, low or to the next lowest address pin, depending on
which is easier in your circuit. Program it in the same configuration.

Remember to duplicate the data over the two halves of the chip,

I'm not familiar with that part, but with the 2764 we would burn the
data into the lower half and ground the pin for the most significant bit
so all that was accessible was the lower half. This assumes that the
pinouts for both chips are substantially the same. |

covers your butt incase you activate the extra address line. |
no change that way. |

Because then it won't matter whether the extra address pin is
hardwired high or low in your circuit. The OP's job may be a repair of
an existing design, not necessarily a new design of his own.

Thanks for the help. I'll be able to erase the old eprom's now as I now have
access an eprom eraser. :)
