DESCRIPTION

serial EEPROMs. They are fabricated using an

enhanced CMOS design and process. IS93C76A/

86A contains power-efficient read/write memory,

and organization of either 1,024/2,048 bytes of 8

bits or 512/1,024 words of 16 bits. When the

ORG pin is connected to Vcc or left unconnected,

x16 is selected; when it is connected to ground,

x8 is selected.

An instruction set defines the operation of the

devices, including read, write, and mode-enable

functions. To protect against inadvertent data

modification, all erase and write instructions are

accepted only while the device are write-enabled.

A selected x8 byte or x16 word can be modified

with a single WRITE or ERASE instruction.

Additionally, the two instructions WRITE ALL or

ERASE ALL can program an entire array. Once a

device begins its self-timed program procedure,

the data out pin (Dout) can indicate the READY/

BUSY status by raising chip select (CS). The self-

timed write cycle includes an automatic erase-

before-write capability. The devices can output

any number of consecutive bytes/words using a

single READ instruction.
